Wednesday

Harry didnt come over the last couple nights which i wasnt too bothered about, at the weekend I saw a more relaxed side of him but yet he now isnt even talking to me at all which I have a piece due on friday, along with an psychology essay

I am in the library during my free lesson tapping my pen on my notebook as I looking back and forth from my laptop to my notebook frustrated, I see someone walk over to my desk and take the seat infront of me
"You weren't in my art class" it was harry
"Wasn't aware I had to be" I say blankly scribbling down the next couple lines of notes purposely ignoring him
"Well I sort of needed you to be"
"Shame." I shrugged still not looking at him, bouncing me knee as i tried to focus on my notes

He sighs and there was a silence after him just burning his stare into me "Take a picture it'll last longer" I mumbled
"I have. I need new ones"  the stubbornness just as strong as mine
"Not going to apologise?" I say calmly raising a brow continuing to write
"I didn't do anything wrong" I stop writing and look up at him as be towered over me leaning on the chair opposite, narrowing his eyes at me feeling his annoyance becoming visible
"Theres your answer then" bitterness in my tone

I close my laptop and pack everything into my backpack, knowing i'd end up saying something i didn't mean if i stay there
"Where are you going" he says I stand up straight still with a one toned expression
"I have psychology" I stop as I get a short distance away "and harry" he just looked at me"find yourself a new partner" I smiled at him before walking out the library. I felt like a badass and walked into psychology feeling better about myself

"Miss Montague" someone calls my name, I look up at miss clark stood at the front of my class "a word" she said angrily and my heart sinks, I slowly get up and walk outside the classroom, wanting to be swallowed up by the earth. Stepping out side of the classroom with her dreading what shes going to say, its like disappointing a family member
"I don't know what's happening with you and harry but you need to get it together, the piece you just submitted was unacceptable. I expect so much more from you, then he tells me you are refusing to work with him? I put you two together for a reason" she spoke harshly but not with aggression "you two are together because you're both great artists, I need you to act like it"
"I understand" I hung my head and feel a wave of guilt hit me, maybe I have been harsh on harry. I'm not apologising he was a dick first

Later:

Rosemary is out with some friends so I had the house to myself, I poured myself a drink and snuggled up in some blankets on the sofa watching fantastic beasts... however my chill time was interrupted by a knock on the door

I frown glancing at the time knowing it's too early for it to be rosemary but I don't have friends so...
"Oh" I say opening the door to see a shivering harry stood in just a tshirt and Jean's, feeling the chill of the wind hit the bare section of my ankles 
"Can I come in?" His teeth were almost chattering, I didnt say anything but steps to the side. He slides off his shoes like always sort of relaxing when he felt the warmth of the house
"I'll but the kettle on" I say walking through to the kitchen getting 2 cups ready, I make him tea how he likes it taking it to him, seeing he pulled my blankets around him

I turn the thermostat up, his lips were almost purple
"you're freezing"
"I know, i walked" he grumbled, as he shivered again cradling the cup
"where from?" Out of all the places he could have gone, why me? Why here?
"some party, i got lost and I recognised the street" that makes alot of sense actually
"do you want a ride home?"
"yes, but not yet" he was definitely tipsy but nothing massive

we sat in silence for a while and I felt like I could hear his heartbeat in the silence when the film went quiet
"we can go now if youd like" he said breaking the silence, thank god he said it because i didnt want to
"yeah, let me grab a hoodie" I cover my PJ top with a hoodie so it looked like i was just in leggings and a hoodie

I grab my car keys and i clear everything off my passenger seat, he gets in still wrapped in the blanket giving me directions but silence when he wasn't
"I'm sorry for snapping at you, you were just trying to help" he finally spoke "next right"
"okay..." I didnt really know how to respond because I wasn't actually expecting an apology
"just pull up anywhere" I pull in to the side if the road, judging by the lighting coming on and the front door opening that was his house"so... we okay?" he asked
"I guess" I shrugged, i cant really say no can i?
"okay" he stepped out of the car leaving the blanket behind, waiting to see him enter the house before pulling away

When i got home rosemary was already home
"where did you go" she asked with a smile
"I just dropped harry back at his, he needed to talk about something"
"everything sorted now then?"
"yep, imma head up to bed"
