American Heart

Truth be told, I wasn't expecting this. I thought we were going to meet the boys at where he was staying, but I happily obliged and followed him into the small cafe, Cocoa McMears.

I didn't want to get too personal, but soon I realized I already had. Seventeen years in Arcul and barely 5 people had met my mom, let alone came to my house.

And Harry did on the first day!

-----------

It's only 4 when we exit the cafe. We spent about 30 minutes there, considering school ended at 3:20 and we spent 10 minutes just talking.

I enter the car on my owm and he doesn't mind, already knowing 'manners' and 'be nice' and 'chivalry' were dead to me.

And suddenly, I go numb.

He remembered I hate school food so he brought me to the cafe.

Couldn't we have just eaten back where he and his friends were staying?

He didn't bring up what happened with my mom.

Wasn't he curious?

I don't get it. I don't get him. I don't get myself.

Why the heck do I even care?

I'm scared, I'm scared of being scared, but I don't even get why I'm scared. What is going on?! Why is my mind so scared??!!

And why is my heart not?

That's it. I'm going crazy.

---------

He begins to start driving, but I'm still tense. I scoot to the right of my seat, making as much space between us as possible. Unfortunately, he notices but doesn't say anything.

I didn't want to make it too awkward, so I opened up a small conversation, "Where are you guys staying at?"

He smiled a bit, taking note of my small effort, and replied, "Horse Tail"

I nearly snorted. Horse Tail? Seriously, Arcul's wonderful and all but there choice in names... I don't even wanna think about it.


A few minutes later we were already standing infront of their hotel room. Harry knocked on the door a couple times, claiming he was too lazy to take out his keys.

The door soon opened wide and a grinning blue eyed boy appeared in view.

"Well, hello, love, we were wondering when you would come, come on in,"

"Thank you," I said stepping in followed by Harry.

I turned around to be met with their eyes, the blue ones examining me before concluding, "I like this one already. She's a beauty. Though I guess I shouldn't judge at looks right?"

I almost blushed at his comment, even though I had heard it a million times before from all the idiots I had been set up with in fancy resteraunts. This one was different though, I actually enjoyed the environment and being around the people in it.

Harry grinned and began to lead the way, "Come on, let me introduce you to the rest, I'm sure they'll love you,"

And it was as if Harry was psychic, because we all actually ended up getting along great. They made great friends, but I tried not to get too personal. I don't need anymore people walking out of my life.

I refused to play games like truth or dare or 20 questions. Though I got to know a lot about them and right now we were all sitting down on the floor, with boxes of large pizzas infront of us, watching Titanic.

"Fudge! I can do that too!" I shouted pointing to the screen where Rose was currently on her toes while Jack and some other people watched her.

Everyone stared at me quetioningly until Zayn asked, "Fudge?"

I slowly put my hand down and explained," Yeah, I don't like cursing, so instead I changed them, like holy shit to jolly or shoot or whatever. I know its weird and Dyl always laughs at me because of that, but hey, if I don't like to curse, I won't. If ya got a problem with it, then stand in line with all the other people who are waiting for me to give a fudge,"

This just resulted in them all cracking up and once they all settled down a bit, Niall questioned, "Who's Dyl?"

I froze realizing my mistake. If I start talking about Dyl, then it'd result in me talking about my family, dad and mom included. They all looked at me expecting me to answer, but that was something I wasn't prepared to do. So I did the only thing I could do. Change the subject. Cliché? Maybe, but I'd rather that than answer the stupid question.

"Hey, I have an idea! Let's play hide and seek! Your'e it Liam!" I quickly stood up, tagged him and ran away. They all soon let it go as Liam gave me an understanding look and started counting for my sake. I'd make sure to thank him for that.

I snuck into one of the bedrooms and rolled under the bed. Hopes of no one ever finding me in here came crashing down as I felt a tap on my shoulder.

I quickly whipped my head to the side only to be met with familiar green eyes.... Harry. He was motioning with his head for me to come out. Once I did, I sat up right, my back pressed against the side of the bed, as I faced Harry who made no effort to get out of my way.

"What is wrong with you?" he hissed.

"What are you talking about? I'm confused. Honestly, I have no idea."

"Why do you keep distancing yourself? Did I do something wrong? Because if I did, I'm sorry, but why did you ignore all those personal questions?"

I snapped, "Why? Because it's none of your business and LRB's don't get everything they want."

He looked confused, "LRB's? What's that?"

"Little rich boys,"

He nodded his head as the atmosphere finally calmed down .

He moved his head closer to mine, teasingly slow, and whispered, "You think I'm a boy?"

I myself leaned in too, "Well, unless you prove so otherwise."

He moved in his head even more and our lips were touching, barely, but you could still feel it.

"Then why don't I?"

I was about to reply and fully press my lips against his before someone interrupted us.

"There you guys are! Come on out!" Louis shouted and went back to the others, probably not even noticing what we were about to do. I quickly came back to my senses and went to the living room where everyone else was. I quicly grabbed my backpack and said a quick goodbye. I didn't want to stay and have any more awkard moments with Harry, so I quickly stepped out and shut the door behind me, but not before hearing Niall's dumbstruck voice,

"Mate. She's fuckin perfect for ya."
