Last First Kiss-a One Direction love story [ON HOLD...FOREVER!!!]

Chapter 8 "On a Balcony..."

Harry’s Pov

I said,"You don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to-"

Jenna waved her hand," No it’s ok…it might take a long time."

I answered," I have all the time in the world." Jenna laughed, suddenly the door opened.

"Hello, Jenny are you here?" a deep male voice said. I turned my head and saw someone who might have been Jenna’s dad. He was taller than me, and had similar wavy brown hair like Jenna had.

"Oh, hi Luke." Jenna said. Luke’s eyes drifted over to me. His friendly gray eyes turned into a stormy hurricane.

"Who’s this? Jenny, can you introduce us? " His cloudy gray eyes seemed to bore into my soul. Asking me why I was with his daughter.

"This is Harry, Harry meet Luke-I mean my dad…" Jenna replied she thought for a bit and said,"He’s umm…here to help me unpack."

Umm…awkward. "Jenna, we should get back to unpacking." I managed to say,"Nice to meet you Mr.-"

"Mr. Andrews. You can call me Luke, everyone does. Even my students at the university." He smiled, he had the same dimples as Jenna. We rushed to Jenna’s room before Luke could ask me any more questions.

Jenna’s room was a bit small but screamed Jenna. Each wall was painted a different color, but they were covered with posters of bands, musicians and many pictures of her and her friends. A violin case lay on the ground. A few unpacked boxes were distributed in the room along with couple shoeboxes were scattered around full of CDs, turns out she listened to anything from classical music to rap to hard-core rock to country. She had good taste in music. It looked like she had almost every genre of music, except dubstep. A guitar lay on her bed that was covered with a handmade quilt. She twirled around her room and announced," Welcome to Wonderland." I sat down on a nearby beanbag. I glanced around, there was a piano squashed into the room which made the room seem smaller. "Do you play?" I asked gesturing to the piano.

She said,"Yeah…Luke said that I inherited his gift for music. But the best thing is this."She walked towards the window and opened it. "Com’on! It’s not that bad." And she opened the window and climbed out of it. I followed her out of the window and onto the rickety fire escape.

"Wow!" I exclaimed. The view was amazing; we could see everything from Big Ben to the London Eye. Jenna looked absolutely lovely in the moonlight. Her wavy brown hair and her rebellious pink streak in it, her sparkling blue eyes appeared even more beautiful than ever. I just had to break the ice; here I was with a gorgeous talented girl alone on a rusty fire escape in London. How did I wind up here? "Wow, the view is lovely. But not as beautiful as you."

"Thanks Harry. You're pretty special too." Jenna said and she turned away from me. Then she asked,"After you guys talked to me, nobody really tried to get to know me...Is it cuz I'm the new girl?"

I sighed, not really wanting Jenna to know the ugly truth. "Did you see Kaiden and his group today?"

"Yes, actually I talked with Demi in the bathroom. She seemed pretty nice."

"Well her brother isn't. He turned the whole school against us, but I'm pretty new here myself. He and Liam have been kinda sworn enemies for a LONG time."

"If I have to be isolated from everyone else, at least I have you." She confessed.

"Do you believe in true love at first sight?" I asked.

"I used to...but-" She hesitated.

"What is it love?"

"My ex-boyfriend was actually a love at first sight thing...Calvin turned out to be a cheating jerkface."

"I won't do that. I will never be able to do that."

"Harry?" Jenna said," I think I actually believe you."

I leaned closer to her, and she was also closing the space between us… I was about to kiss her when my phone started to ring. AWKWARD TURTLE!

"Oh, umm…can I?" I muttered and saw that it was Louie. Louie? I checked my watch, it was 6:37. Louie was supposed to pick Jenna up at 6 o’clock. What was he doing 37 minutes late? I whispered," Umm…I think I need to take this."

I pressed the call back button and said," Hey Louie. So, you were supposed to pick Jenna about 40 minutes ago."

He replied," Sorry about that. Something happened at work…"

Hmm, something was really fishy. He usually left work on time. And he continued," I’m coming-" And he hung up. I turned to Jenna. Her expression was unreadable. "So, Jenna?"

"Yes Harry?" she said.

"I just want to say-" but I was interrupted by the doorbell ringing. We scrambled out of the fire escape, into her tiny bedroom to check the door. We practically ran over there and the door swung open. It was Louie holding his car keys and said, "Are you ready loves?"
