I Can't Help It
Chapter 46.
" Good morning class." Mr. Styles walked in and sat on his desk, as usual.
" Good morning Mr. Styles." We all said.
" How was your guy's weekends?" He asked looking around the room. We all nodded and said good and began discussing what happened over the two day break.
" Well open your books up to page 514, where we left off."
I sighed, flipping to my page, and starting class.
•••••
I slammed my locker and walked down the hall to my last hour of the day.
Everyone I passed seemed to be giving me weird looks. I just glared back at them. I walked into class and sat down.
" Good evening. Go ahead and begin your warm-up on the board."
Mrs. Calhoun pointed to the projector and I began doing the work. The class phone began to ring.
" ahuh. Okay. Alright. She'll be right down." Mrs. Calhoun removed the phone from her ear and slammed it back down to its place.
" Maria, they need you down in the office." She said. I nodded, gathering my things and getting up and out the door. I wonder what they needed this time.
I made a right in the hall and then walked inside the office. The secretary looked up.
" What do you need" she said in a very rude manner.
" I don't know. I was called down here."
" You're Maria?" She asked. I slowly nodded. She pointed towards the back door.
" That way."
I nodded, as I began towards the door. Was I in trouble? Did I do something wrong? What are they gonna ask me?
I realized my palms were sweaty as I twisted the door knob and walked in the the principles office.
And I stood in the doorway when I looked at Harry sitting in one of the brown leather seats.
" Ah, Ms. Summers. Come, take a seat."
My heart raced faster than a nascar as I made my way inbetween the seats and sat down next the Harry.
I looked over at him, and he looked at me with a dumbfounded look on his face.
" Do you two have any idea why you're here?" Mr. Kently (Principle) asked.
We both stayed silent.
" Alright, well let me inform you." He sighed, lacing his hands together on his desk.
" Maria, do you have a boyfriend?" He asked. My eyes widened.
" Yes sir."
" What's his name?"
I cleared my throaght.
" He doesn't go here, sir."
" Fair enough." He turned to Harry. " Mr. Styles, do you have a girlfriend?"
I watched as Harry shrugged.
" Yeah. "
" What's her name?"
" Carleigh."
" Carleigh who?" He asked.
" Carleigh Grant."
" What does she do?"
" She's an artist."
Mr. Kently raised his eyebrows.
" I don't believe you."
" I'm pretty sure I'd know if my girlfriend was an artist or not."
" I thought that she was a teacher, who worked here at Crawford?"
He know had my attention. Was there something Harry wanted to tell me?
" What are you saying sir?"
" More specifically an English intern. By the name of, Maria Summers." He turned to me. He looked at me as he said it. I winced of shock.
" I'm not an English intern, nor Mr. Styles girlfriend!" I said standing up. Mr. Kently put his hands in the air.
" Calm down. sit."
I sat back down.
" A man and woman came into the office, looking for a teacher named Harry Styles, and his girlfriend/ intern, Maria Summers." He said.
I froze.
" Wanting to wish you a belated birthday with lunch." He looked at me.
" I don't understand. I'm not dating Mr. Styles. He's my teacher! That gross!" I said.
" Is it?"
" What were their names?" Harry finally spoke up.
" I believe their names were Louis and Eleanor Tomlinson. "
I was glued to my position. I seriously could not move.
" That's preposterous. Who in their insane mind would think that I am dating my student!" Harry sat and pointed to me. He was a great actor. I felt like he was actually telling the truth. It even seemed as if a vein poppe out of his neck as he waited for Mr. Kently to respond.
" You know, I like you Mr. Styles. It would be a darn shame for me to have to fire you."
" Listen to me, Richard. You know me. You know I wouldn't never do that." Harry said more calm.
" How about we give Maria some time to speak. How about it?" Mr. Kently looked at me.
" I have absolutely no idea what is happening. All I know is that I only know Mr. Styles from English and the fact that someone would do that, and try to set us up, makes me extremly upset." I said standing up.
" See!" Harry pointed towards me. " She's telling the truth. I'm telling the truth. Never in a million years would I date her. Even if we were the last two people on Earth, I wouldn't get involved with her!"
Ouch. That stung.
I studied Mr. Kently's face. I wish I could read minds.
" I wish I could believe you. But I'm sorry. We have too much proof that you two are seeing eachother. You don't think I notice when a student stays afterschool with a teacher? Or they way you two look at eachother? I can tell when two people love eachother." He said looking between us.
" and it's a darn shame that I have to do this, but it's part of school rules. Now, because I like both you, I'm going to give you options."
I studied him as the tears built up. He couldn't stop me and Harry from seeing eachother. I love him, he loves me. Were Are unseperable.
" Either I fire you Harry, and this goes on your resimay, meaning that probably no other school would hire you because of this, or." He turned to face me. " I take away your Manchester acceptance."
I looked over at Hary. I knew he could see me from the corner of his eyes staring, but he never looked at me.
" Choose."
I was was about to say to take away my acceptance so I atleast didn't have to leave, when Harry beat me to it and said,
" Fire me."
