Chapter 6
Louise’s P.O.V
Everything stops. It’s almost as if we’re in slow motion. My skateboard behind me, and Harry in front of me, both flying through the air. Before my mind can catch up and get up to speed, I close my eyes, and brace for impact. Waiting for the pain, I wait. After what feels like an hour has gone by of waiting, I open my eyes, to find Harry underneath me. “Well, that didn’t hurt so bad, did it?” I smile, flashing my teeth at him, his body underneath mine. Harry’s arms are spread at his sides, his forearms shown out of his rolled up sleeves, and his dark mop of hair covering his eyes. Blowing his hair out of his eyes, he lets out a laugh. “Yeah, whatever you say” he groans again. Sighing, i lay my head on his chest, still exhilarated by what had just happened. I finally lift my head, and see Harry staring down at me. “What?” I ask, looking at him. “Nothing” He smiles, a crooked smile across his face, I’ve noticed he does often. “Alright then, let’s go, what are you waiting for grandpa?” I laugh. Standing to me feet, I realize my skateboard made it’s way down the stairs with us, and I slip again. Closing my eyes again, I expect to actually hit the ground this time, but when i open them, all I see is the white panels of the ceiling. “Wha…” I begin, cut off by an unfamiliar, but welcome feeling on my lips. Harry had caught me mid air, already on his feet. His hand on the small of my back, and his other hand brushing strands of hair from my face, he kisses me, and before I can process it, I’m kissing him back. As soon as I push through my thoughts to comprehend my actions, he pulls away, all too soon, a whine escaping my mouth. “Alright, let’s go then” flashing his crooked smile. Grabbing my skateboard, we climb the stairs and jump on, strolling at a cautious, but comfortable pace down the halls. Harry doesn’t say a word as we turn each corner, but I can see the wide smile plastered on his face, his green eyes shining as we make our way back to the room.
