Broken
Chapter 11
I felt my eyes flutter open and I winced as pain shot across my head, the last thing I remember last night was entering the party. I opened my eyes fully to see I was in my room which I took as a good sign, I flung the covers back and realized I was in a black T-shirt, that definitely wasn't mine. The door swung open and Harry walked in, with thank the lord pain relief.
'Ahh, you're awake, finally' Harry teased I just hummed in response.
'how’s the headache?' He asked
'I can't have a headache if I don't have a head left' I grumbled as I swallowed so pain relief
'very good point' He chuckled, I was now awake enough to realise that Harry was in my room and I was most probably wearing his t-shirt, why is he here seriously.
'Harry why are you here?' I asked sighing; I definitely remember shouting at him last night.
'Well after you downed half a bottle of vodka and blacked out I had to bring you home because no one else was around' he replied with a shrug
'oh' I mumbled
'Look Fran how much do you remember of last night?' he asked
'I remember telling you to stay away' I hinted
'I feared as much' he muttered
'I should shower, ya know give you a chance to escape again' I spat before crawling out of bed.
'Would you just let me explain please?' he asked
‘Fine’ I huffed as I grabbed a makeup wipe and started cleaning away last smudges of eyeliner from last night
‘yeah, Look Fran I'm sorry, I didn't mean to leave you like that, I just panicked, you're not like any of the other girls I've been with, I normally just leave but I didn't want to do that with you Fran it was never my intention’
‘Oh’ I muttered as I stood on my tiptoes to get a clean towel from the top of my wardrobe
‘Fuck’ I heard harry curse under his breath and I realised that his t-shirt had ridden up; I felt the flush creeping up my cheeks
'Its rude to stare Harold' I muttered
'Worth it though, I'm taking you out later, be ready for 7pm'
'Where are we going?' I asked
‘You’ll see, and dress fancy’ He replied with a wink before leaving, I let out a giggle before texting El and telling her to come over, I needed help choosing what to wear.
Sometime later and El had arrived with Louis in tow, which I didn’t mind too much, we got on okay.
‘Hey, sorry we’re going to see a film in a bit’ she apologised as she pulled me in for a hug and I saw Lou roll his eyes and I had to bite the inside of my cheek to hold in my chuckle
‘Its fine’ I coughed out as we headed upstairs
‘Nice place Fran’ Lou spoke
‘Cheers’
‘Right let’s see what you’ve got in your closet’ El spoke as she opened up my wardrobe and started picking through clothes
About an hour later and we’d finally decided on an outfit http://www.polyvore.com/date_night/set?id=102877338, even Louis approved.
‘So what’s happening with you guys?’ El asked as she sat on Lou’s lap and I started to curl my hair.
‘I don’t know’ I admitted
‘He definitely likes you’ Louis spoke and I laughed
‘yeah sure he does’
‘No he’s right Fran, I’ve never seen Harry this protective over a girl before, well except his sister’
‘El’ Louis warned and I couldn’t help but wonder what she’d done wrong
‘We should go’ El spoke up and I could see Lou squeezing her wrist a bit tighter than he should have been and I made a mental note to ask her about it later.
‘Thanks for the help’ I replied as I hugged them both goodbye. I looked at the clock and I suddenly felt the nerves hit me Harry would be here in half an hour and I still needed to finish my make-up.
I took one last look in the mirror before deciding I looked in okay the skirt was a little short but I didn't care, I knew Harry would probably like it. There was a knock on the door and I jumped up from the sofa to go and greet Harry.
'Ready?' He asked as I opened the door
'Yup, Let’s go' I replied as he grabbed my hand and led me to the car. I was nervous I've never been on a date before. A few months ago I had a happy family, well as happy as we could be considering we were actually a member down, I had good grades and I’d managed to stay away from any boy troubles.
'What you thinking about?' Harry asked pulling me from my thoughts
'Just how different my life is now' I replied as we pulled up outside 'Fran’s Diner' I laughed at the name as Harry opened the passenger door for me.
'Who knew Harry Styles is actually a gentlemen' I teased as we headed inside
'Yes well my mother did raise me with some standards' He replied with a grin and damn it dimple alert.
We took a seat in a quiet booth as a waitress came over and handed our menus, and checking Harry out in the process. I felt a bolt of anger shoot through me at her obvious sluttyness, I hadn't realised she'd asked what we wanted to drink.
'I'll have the raspberry milkshake, What about you babe?' I asked Harry, hoping she took the hint.
'um I'll have the same actually' He replied as he squeezed my hand, I waited for the waitress to leave before talking
'she was definitely checking you out'
'so?' He asked
'well obvious that we're together and well that's just plain rude ' I defended
'so you're jealous'
'No, I just think It's rude'
'Don't worry, she's not my type' he reassured, and I just nodded before deciding on what to eat.
The waitress came back without milkshakes and took our order, (I chose a burger) before leaving us alone again.
‘What did you mean in the car, about how different your life is?’ Harry asked and I froze for a moment
‘oh, it's just a few months ago I had good grades, good friends and a happy-ish family and now well my parents are divorced, I'm drinking every other night my grades are not as good and well then there is you'
'what do you mean 'then there's me?'
‘I’ve not exactly had any boys interested in me before’ I explained
‘Now that can’t be true’ He replied staring into my eyes
‘I don’t really know, If I have I’ve never noticed’ I mumbled as the waitress brought over our food, we made small talk finding out a little about trivial things like favourite colour and favourite band.
Once we'd finished Harry paid and drove me home. We sat in his car in silence for a few minutes.
'Do you like me Fran?' Harry asked with a serious face
'well how do you mean, like as a friend or more?'
'more'
Honestly Harry, I haven’t had time to figure it out, but I probably could end up liking you in that way' I replied
'oh' I leant across and kissed his cheek
'I had fun tonight, thanks Harold' I winked as I got out of the car and headed inside.
Why the fuck did he just ask me that, I definitely did not expect that, he doesn’t seem like he would care if I did or didn’t.
'Ahh, you're awake, finally' Harry teased I just hummed in response.
'how’s the headache?' He asked
'I can't have a headache if I don't have a head left' I grumbled as I swallowed so pain relief
