"And that's mostly everything that will be on you final exam before spring break" Mr.Smith said just as the bell rang."I'll see you guys tomorrow."

I gathered my stuff together and walked out of the classroom.

I had five minutes to get to Science, and it was on the other side of the school and I had to stop by my locker first.I put in my locker combination and opened my locker.

A piece of folded up paper fell out.

YOUR FRIEND .xx

"What?" I thought as I put away my math stuff and pulled out everything I needed for Science. I slammed my locker shut and started off towards the science wing.

 

I felt someone or something tap my shoulder.I kept on walking because I thought that someone accidentally hit me. I felt another tap.

This time I turned around annoyed and came face to face with Harry.

I quickly turned around and sped-walked to my next class.

I thought I heard Harry say something about a note but I ignored it.

When the final bell rang I was still debating whether or not I should go to the library.

 

My phone vibrated signalling that I had a new message

Meet me in the back of the back of the library near the back exit looking out onto the courtyard

 

YOUR FRIEND .XX

_____________________________________

 

I decided that I would go and meet my "friend" in the library.

~

I walked into the library and smiled at Mrs.Hoskins.

"Hi Libby!Can I help you with something?"she asked me.

"That's okay.I'm um, I'm meeting a friend so we can,study?"I said.Then added"Thank you, though." and walked away.

I sat where my "friend" had told me to sit.

I looked out onto the courtyard.It was truly beautiful. There were flowers and trees planted everywhere. It was recently painted by most of the students at the school, and they added tables and bike racks, and the sun was shining down on it all.

"Hi Libby"I heard someone say. I turned my head towards the voice. And sure enough Harry was sitting at the table with me.

 

I got up to leave when Harry said "Wait Libby,please wait!"

I rolled my eyes and choked out "What do you want Harry?"He took a deep breath and looked into my eyes.

"I want to apologize"he said.I let out a small chuckle.

"Is this some kind of joke?"I asked him.

"No,it isn't. I'm the one who left you the note. I really want to apologize and I would really like for us to become friends again." Harry said all in one breath.

"Harry I-"

I couldn't find the right thing to say.

I mean how do you reply to something like that? What do you say to someone whos been making you life hell, and you didn’t even know how? Was there even a correct response for this type of situation?

I thought for a moment and finally said, "I don't think that I can forgive you." As soon as I said that he looked shattered.

"I mean, you’ve made my life a living hell for two years for no reason!"I had suddenly became angry. "WHY?!"I shouted at him. "Why'd you do it Harry? And don't you dare say ‘I don't know’ because you do know!”

He looked speechless. "You hurted me, I wanted to hurt you as well."he said while looking at his hands.

"What do you mean I hurt you?"I questioned him.

He looked up at me, and met my eyes, and then he looked guilty, so he quickly looked back down.

"Two years ago I was in love with you, and I was getting ready to tell you that," he took a deep breath and tears began to well up in his eyes. "But then one day Ashley Taylor called me up and told me that you were cheating on me with Chad, who you already know was my best friend, and it devastated me. At first I just couldn't belive it but then she just convinced me that it was the truth!"

I was astonished. At least I finally had an idea why Harry did what he did.

"Harry even if that was true, which it's not, it  gives you no right, no right  at all to do something like that!"

"You mean it's not true?” Harry asked as he looked up at me.

"Of course not Harry! I was in love with you to but I didn't know if you felt the same way about me..." I trailed off towards the end.

"Are you crazy Libby? I have always loved you, for as long as I can remember! I thought you knew that.”

I smiled on the inside. Of course hearing him say that made me happy. After all I was still in love with Harry.

“I’m so sorry. You’re right, I had no right to do all of those cruel, horrible things to you, no right at all. I really am sorry. I had no idea why I acted the way I did.”

I searched my mind on something to say.

I didn't get the chance to say what I wanted because Harry crashed his lips against mines. Naturally, I kissed back. After all, it was Harry. It felt so wrong, but then again, it felt so right. I’d missed this, and who was I to complain about finally having it again?

Wait, having what again? Someone I’d loved to break my heart again? For all I know, this was some type of game. There’s probably students hiding around the library, recording it all. Once again, I was going to be the joke of the school. I couldn’t let that happen.

I quickly pulled away and grabbed my bag. “I-I’m so sorry Harry, but I have to go.”

And with that, I left.
