Chapter 29

Harry’s POV

“Stupid,” I blurted out as I stepped into my dorm.

“See Niall, Harry agrees with me, you’re stupid,” Louis laughed and Niall threw a pencil at him.

I wasn’t going to bother asking what that was about but I’m guessing it had to do with some school things they were working on since they had their books out.

“I wasn’t talking about Niall,” I murmured as I walked across the room to lie down on my bunk.

“Yeah I know, so how’d the date go?” Louis asked.

I didn’t remember ever saying anything to him about, maybe I did, but if I didn’t Liam probably had. “It was fine,” I answered.

“Yeah because when a date goes good for me as I always blurt out “stupid” when it’s over,” Niall said sarcastically.

I heard the bathroom door opening before I could say anything else, “What did you do, Harry?” I heard Liam say as he walked over to us.

“I just screwed tonight up like fifteen minutes ago so I’m really not in the mood to relive it right now,” I told them.

“That’s fine, you can just tell me about it later when these two idiots aren’t here,” Liam said, referring to Louis and Niall.

“And when you decide you don’t want to do that you can tell us without Liam here to patronize you,” Louis said, and him and Niall both started laughing as Liam just rolled his eyes at me.

“Talk to me tomorrow morning,” Liam said, with a bit of sternness to his voice. Louis and Niall didn’t hear him because they were too busy still laughing.

I just nodded at Liam, and then lay back in my bed. I knew there was no way that I was going to be able to avoid having to talk to Liam so I shouldn’t bother on coming up with ways that I could try to get out of having to talk to him. I just really didn’t want to talk about it, what was I supposed to say, I would feel weird telling him that Nicole and I kissed and I stupidly thought it would be okay to use tongue, because I didn’t think Liam needed to know those details.

I had just screwed everything up and I hated myself for it. I just had to take the kiss a step further, I had known she wouldn’t want to, but I did so I didn’t think she I just did it. It had all just gone downhill after she had quickly pulled away.

Maybe I should talk to Liam about this because maybe he would have an idea of what I should say to her tomorrow, because I had no idea. I hoped that I hadn’t completely ruined things or that I hadn’t made things to awkward between us.

Maybe Nicole would just forget about it by tomorrow, it had just caught her pretty off guard tonight but maybe she would realize it really wasn’t that big of a deal. My three dorm mates all took their showers and got ready to head to bed. I was already in my bed and was in no mood to get up, I would just shower in the morning.

I didn’t bother changing clothes or anything; I just kicked off my shoes and got under the covers. I was starting to feel weak and vulnerable again because here I was worrying about the fact that I had kissed Nicole tonight maybe a bit to intimately for her liking right now.

I really should just stop blaming myself for all the things that I do that bother her. If she doesn’t like something that I do then that is her problem. I shouldn’t be the one in the wrong here just for doing something that I felt like doing.

According to Liam though, even if I didn’t think I really did anything wrong, I still needed to apologize if she didn’t like something I had done. I obviously didn’t like that, but Liam told me it was either that or just deal with whatever negative way she would use to treat the situation, according to Liam it was usually the silent treatment that girls used. I didn’t think this was all that big a deal though, so that’s why I needed to talk to Liam to figure out what to do.
