Dirty Little Secret
Chapter 4
Kate's POV
Breakfast this morning was slightly uncomfortable. I had walked down stairs and Harry had been sitting with Niall eating breakfast like nothing was wrong, like he hadn't crawled into his sisters bed last night when he was sleeping. Harry kept giving me these guilty looks and then looking from Niall to me. Niall was oblivious to them of course, but then again Niall is oblivious to everything.
I couldn't take the awkwardness between Harry and I so I went upstairs to my room.
I hear the doorbell ring, but choose to ignore it. "Kattttte, someone is here for you!" Niall calls up to me. It must be Lottie, she needed my help with the chemistry homework. I walk downstairs, still in my pajamas and last night's eye makeup. To my surprise, it isn't Lottie standing at the front door, it's Ashton. Well shit. He is the last person I want to see right now. Harry made me feel so much better and made me forget about Ashton last night.
Niall leaves me standing there in my extra short boxers and tank top, alone, with Ashton. "Can we talk?" He asks. "I don't really have anything to say to you." I snap back. "Please come take a drive with me, let me apologize." Ashton pleads. "No Ashton, you said you were done with Adele, I'm done being your rebound."I say. "you're not my re-""don't even start with me Ashton. You know I was wondering why you haven't asked me out after all this time, and now I realize it was because you still have feeling for Adele. And that's fine if you do, but don't mix me up with your games. Leave my emotions out of it."I say interrupting him, and with that I shut the door in his face. I blow out a breath of air. that felt good.
"Yessss Kate yessss" Niall and Harry round the corner cheering. "Leave my emotions out of it" Harry says in a girly voice. "Genius" Niall says. "whatta dick, you're better off without him" Harry says. "Yeah in all seriousness, I'm glad you are smart enough to know that asshole is nothing and that you are better than him. We all laugh for a while and replay what just went on.
I mean what did Ashton think was going to happen when he came over? That I was just going to fall to my knees and blow him right there. He at least knows me well enough to know I am not one of those girls who cares more about the relationship than how the guy treats her.
----
Later on that day I get a text from Harry. My insides tingle with excitement. I have been waiting for him to text me all day.
Harry styles: "can we do it again sometime soon?"
I love how he knows that I know exactly what he's talking about. I debate whether to jump right in and say yes, or make him work. Definitely make him work.
Me: "do what again soon?"
Harry: "Kate come on don't act like you don't want to kiss me again
Me: "eh whatever you say Harold"
Harry:"fine I guess ill just call up Adele then. She would be down for a friendly hook up."
Me:" haha fuck you."
Harry:"ok fuck me..I wouldn't mind it"
I need something clever to say back, but I have nothing. I just reply with a simple lol .

A few hours after our texting session dies down, I lie in my bed listening to music. It's about 9:30 but my parents are already asleep. I'm dreading school tomorrow. Mondays suck. "Do I wanna know," by arctic monkeys gets interrupted by the sound of my phone ringing.
Harry's name is on the caller ID.
"Hello?"
"Look our your window"
I walk over to the window, and below me harry is standing there with the phone to his ear waving.
"Hahah Harry Niall is going to see you!!"
"Not if you come down and we drive away real quick"
I've never really snuck out before, but what's the worst thing that could happen? Im more worried about Niall finding out than my parents.
"I'll be down in 5" I say and hang up.
I quickly grab a jacket and debate whether to put on some make up. Harry sees me without it on all the time so there's not much of a difference. I'm not one of those girls who feels insecure without it. I only wear makeup when I feel it is necessary.
I creak down the stairs, left foot, right foot, and make it out the front door. Success.
"Where are we going?" I ask as I get in the front seat of Harry's range rover.
He looks so good. His curls are pulled back by a green headband. The headband brings out his eye color and I can't help but stare.
"You'll see" he says and whips the car out of my driveway.
