"Midget!"

I turned around to see a 14 year old Harry Styles calling me.

"Hey Haz!" I yelled back at him and started walking towards him in the school playground.

He slightly smiled at the nickname, and even though he told me he doesn't like me calling him that I can tell he does - I know him too well.

"Hey you" he spoke when we were close enough. I replied with a hug, enjoying the smell of his cologne for a few seconds before we started walking towards the school.

"Did you study for that biology test?" I ask him, even though I know he didn't.

I was a year younger than him, but I knew more biology than him so I try to tutor him sometimes, but it never works out because he never listens.

He just sits on the floor in his own little world and starts laughing out of nowhere.

"You're seriously asking me that,Elle?"

That was something I always found interesting about Harry. I've known him since I was six and he said my full name maybe three times since we've known each other. He calls me "Elle" as in short for Noelle, but most of the times he says "Midget" to make fun of my height.

I pretend I don't like it when he calls me that, but honestly it's kinda cute.

"Yes,I'm asking you that because you're my best and only friend and I want you to have a successful life." I tell him, giving him an annoyed look as we entered trough the front doors.

He looks around the school and takes a second before replying "Well, your answer is no, I didn't study."

Wow, what a surprise. Honestly, I should just stop asking since he never really was the one to study.

"My classes finish at 1pm, so I will come over at your place at around 1:30. Is that okay?" he said as we stopped next to my classroom.

Harry and I have always hung out after school for movie nights or so I could tutor him, which, as I said, never works - it was kinda our thing.

"Yeah, sure, what movie do you want to watch this time?" I ask, wanting to push him of a cliff for always making me watch romantic comedies.

"You pick." He said with a smirk, and just went to his class.

'Damn, I get to pick for once. What a once in a lifetime chance' I thought, even though he was probably gonna make me watch something he wanted.

Regardless, I just smiled and walked to my class.

It was around 2:15 pm when Harry got to my house, because he couldn't stay out of trouble.

Some kid's money 'magically' ended up in his pocket, so he had to stay and talk to the principal.

He was always like that. Well, he wasn't a bully, but he always found a way to steal someones money.
