the things we do for love

small talk

*Harry's POV*

I am in history class, I kinda like history, but also don't. I only like it when I get it or if it's interesting.

I caught Kate staring at Niall, who sits besides me. She looks kinda sad, she told me about the party and that Niall didn't call her, not even texted.

I turn my face to Niall, he was scribbling something in his book.

♡K♡A♡..

"What are you writing?" I asked him.

No answer.

"Nole Hooran!!" that's one of his nicknames.

"Uh.. yeah, sure."

"Niall.. look at me."

He slowly turns his head towards me. "Oke, so?"

"Let's have some small talk." I said.

"Ok sure, about what?"

"Kate."

*Niall's POV*

Why does he wants to talk about Kate? Did she say something about me? Did he see what I was writing?

What will he ask? What will he say? What can I answer? I don't even know how to act.

"Niall?"

"Uh yes."

"Haha, can I ask you something?"

No. I know it's about Kate... I don't want to answer those questions.

"Yeah sure. Ask away."

"What were you writing? With all those hearts?"

"I uh- Nothing."

"Niall.. I can see it, that's a name. K, A.."

"Yes, it's um.. Katherine."

"Yeah sure. You know I am not stupid right?"

"Kayleigh?"

"Not. Stupid."

"Kayla?"

"Dudeeee. Just be honest already."

"Uhg fine. Katie."

"Seriously?"

"Yep."

"Dude I am getting pissed. BE HONEST."

"If you are so sure that I am lying.. you also should know the name."

"Yes, ofcourse I do. But I want you to tell me."

"....Kate."

Suddenly Harry looks mad, but he also has a small grin. I don't get it, isn't he happy that I was honest?
