Still the One

Harry's POV:

"Yeah, sure. See you soon." She said as she hung up the phone. I quickly grabbed my coat off of the chair next to my desk, and slipped on my shoes quickly. I was excited to be seeing Charlotte; I wanted to see her again. I just feel as if what we had was magical. Wait! What am I saying? She's just an unpopular nerd and I'm Harry Styles. As I walked out of the front door of my house, I instantly felt nervous about seeing her; she'd just ran out crying after what we'd done in the coffee shop, so I don't know what her reaction will be to me showing up at her door. It was only 6pm, but it was already dark as it is the middle of January. As I walked, I couldn't help think of the moment where she ran out crying. Had the kiss really been that bad to her? Ugh, no what if she's told someone about it, I'll never live this down! My popularity will decrease instantly, but I enjoyed the kiss so much, I just want to kiss her again. I just want my lips to gently touch her soft, peachy, beautiful lips, but then again we can't be together. She's a nerd, our differences would get in the way. After my short walk, I approached the gate of Charlotte's house, I was about to ring the buzzer to send the signal for the gates to be open, but I could see the gate was already unlocked. I just decided to walk in and just collect the phone off her, saving as much awkward contact as I could. I mean what am I supposed to say? I mean we kissed? A couple days ago, we couldn't stand the sight of each other and now, well I guess things have progressed... We are just friends, that's all - or is it? Are we anything more? No, just friends...

As I walked up her driveway, I became more and more nervous. I could see her family in what I assume is their living room, it was a gigantic living room! The size of my entire house could fit in that room. As I approached the door, I was about to press the doorbell, but the door suddenly opened. It was Charlotte. We were stood face to face, just gazing into each others eyes. I'd never felt this way about any girl before, there was something special about her, she was different. Every time I'm around her I just want to kiss her soft lips.

"Here you go." Charlotte said handing me my phone as she took a step backwards. I could tell we still had the same connection as we did in the cafe.

"Thank you." I said taking the phone from her and putting it into my back pocket. She seemed a little agitated, and I could tell she was still a bit shaken up from the kiss we both had shared back in the cafe.

"I'm sorry about running off in the cafe." She said looking towards the ground. I didn't know what to say, I'd enjoyed it! But had she? I knew I had to find out...

"It's fine,really. I actually kinda liked it" I said looking up at her then back towards the ground. Had I really just said that? What if she goes and tells someone about that, then everyone will know. And what if she doesn't like me back? My popularity will go and I'll just be Harry, the boy who fancies a nerd who doesn't like him back. Not the best look I guess. She seemed a bit stunned with my last remark, she probably thought it was a mistake and that I hated it. I just had to find out if she enjoyed it too.

"Umm, I have to get back." She said nervously, I could tell she didn't know what to say.

"Listen, before you go, about this history project, do you wanna come over tomorrow and sort it out with me? We have to get it done at some point." I asked her looking into her rich brown eyes, damn they were so beautiful, they glimmered in the light. We had a couple more weeks to do the history project but I really want to talk to her, talk some things through. Find out what she made of the kiss.

"Tomorrow? I just need some time to get my head straight, think some thinks through, you know after what happened... Um what about say 3 days time, Friday night? I know you probably have better things to do, and I understand if you wanna do it at a later date." She said pushing some of her beautiful, soft dark brown hair back behind her ear. I couldn't tell what she was feeling, how she felt about the kiss - did she like me back? Did she not? I just didn't know.
"No, Fridays fine, I usually spend my Friday nights at home anyway." I said truthfully, to be honest I'm not too much of a party animal. I prefer staying home with my mum really. But Charlotte seemed sort of surprised by what I said, I guess she must've assumed I was some big party animal.

"Oh, I thought you'd be one always up for a party?" She asked me looking into my eyes as I looked into hers. I could still feel the connection between us, there was definitely something there.

"No, I'd rather stay, and keep my mum company. So, anyway, Friday night is good." I replied to her. I could still feel the chemistry between us, we definitely had a bond.

"Okay,great." She said pushing her hair behind her ear. I was about to leave and go back home when we both started leaning in for another kiss. Another soft kiss. Just a way to find out if we really had a bond. But did she feel the same way? Our lips almost met as she pulled back hitting the door behind her.

"I'm sorry, I've got to go." She said running back into her house. Had we really almost just kissed again? Did she feel the same way as I did? Well, she did pull away I guess. I turned back around, and began to walk back up the driveway, maybe even more confused than I was before I'd arrived at her house... But I guess I like her, no! What am I saying? And there's no way she feels the same way! She's just a nerd...
