More Than a Student/Teacher Relationship
Chapter 4
Zoe’s P.O.V.
“Meet me at Starbucks in twenty,” I asked everyone. We were doing a group chat, and I wanted to tell everyone about me and Harry, but in person.
“Why?” Liam asked.
“I need to tell you something important,” I confessed.
“Really? What is it? Is it about you and a certain hunky teacher?” Dani giggled.
“I’m not going to answer that one. I’m hanging up now, love you!” I hurriedly hung up before I could be asked anymore questions. I put my shoes on and left my house, after saying bye to my mom. I walked down to Starbucks, ordered my drink, and sat down at one of the few tables that could seat everyone. After about five minutes, El and Louis showed up, hand in hand. I swear, they are one of the cutest couples ever. As soon as she saw me, El squealed, running away from Louis, making him pout.
“Thanks, love. I see how it is. I guess your boyfriend isn’t as important.” El rolled her eyes, but went over and kissed Lou’s cheek.
“You are too important to me!” Louis smiled, kissing El quickly.
“I better be.” I giggled at their adorable behavior. El stayed sitting on Louis’ lap as Liam, Dani, and Niall showed up. Liam sat down with Dani as Niall went over to the counter and bought some pastries for himself.
“Where are Zayn and Perrie?” Dani asked.
“I have no idea. They are always late, though.” I shrugged.
“I wonder why,” El giggled. I pretended to be disgusted at her suggestion.
“Eww, I hope not.” At that moment, Zayn and Perrie rushed in the door, looking slightly disheveled.
“Hey, sorry we’re late!” Perrie apologized.
“It’s okay.” I answered. Perrie and Zayn sat down, taking the coffee I ordered for them.
“How was it?” El asked, winking at Perrie, who looked confused.
“How was what?”
“Oh, you know, it,” El laughed. Zayn blushed, while Perrie slapped El’s arm.
“Hey! Don’t slap my girlfriend!” Louis shouted.
“For your information, it was amazing, more than I can say for you and that, I’m sure.” Perrie sassily remarked.
“Oh please, that is my boyfriend, who loves me, so when we do it, it is amazing!” To prove her point, El started making out with Louis. I rolled my eyes, burying my face into Niall’s chest, who had sat down next to me. He laughed and wrapped his arms protectively around me. I giggled, sitting back up again. I thought I heard Niall sigh when I left him, but that must have been my imagination.
“Okay, so, now that everyone is here, I have to tell you all something, but you have to promise not to tell anyone, ever, no matter what happens.” They all looked at me quizzically but agreed. I took a deep breath, preparing to confide in my friends a secret that needs to stay hidden. “Mr. Styles, or Harry as he has told me to call him, are kind of going out.” I looked around sheepishly, waiting for their reactions. Danielle and Perrie looked excited, Zayn just looked surprised, El, Louis, and Liam looked surprised as well, but also seemed a little disappointed, and Niall looked like he was ready to bash someone’s skull in.
“Oh my god Zoe! That’s amazing!” Dani cheered. Her and Perrie got up and hugged me, making me laugh.
“Are you sure that this is what you want, Zoe? This could be dangerous,” Liam chimed in. “I don’t want you to get hurt.”
“Yeah. That’s how Louis, Zayn, and I feel as well,” El added.
“Yes, this is what I want. I’m not going to get hurt, everything will be fine.” Everyone nodded, except Niall.
“Niall?” Instead of answering, he stormed out of the cafe. I was about to go after him, but Liam grabbed my arm.
“Let him go, Zoe. He needs some time alone.” I was confused by what he meant, but let it slide. I sat back down, joining the conversation Perrie had started after the awkward silence that followed Niall’s exit.
About an hour later, I had walked home and was sitting on the couch, watching TV. I was still confused about Niall’s reaction to me and Harry, but decided to take Liam’s advice and ignore it for now, let him have time to think about whatever is bothering him. I felt lonely, since my mom was on a business trip until Tuesday, no one was home. I decided to text Harry, telling him he could come over. He responded right away, asking for my address. I gave it to him, and waited for him to show up. About ten minutes later, there was a knock at the door. I went over to open it, and as soon as I did, a pair of familiar arms wrapped around my waist, and soft lips connected with mine. I kissed back eagerly, as Harry kicked the door closed. I smiled as he started walking forward, forcing me to back up until I hit the couch. I giggled as I fell back, Harry landing on top of me. He laughed too, showing his deep dimples. He kissed both of my cheeks before leaving a peck to my lips. “I would do that all day if I could,” he whispered, leaving a kiss right below my ear, making me shiver. He smirked at my reaction, leaving another kiss in the same spot. His hands pushed my hips up to meet his. His lips went to mine again, leaving a sweet kiss behind. “You know, I think that this hiding and sneaking around stuff is quite the turn-on,” he cheekily remarked. I smiled, looking into his emerald eyes.
“Oh really?”
“Yes, I do.” I giggled, kissing him again.
“Okay, I need to talk to you now.” He nodded, acting like a four year old who was pretending to be serious, and sat up, pulling me with him.
“What do you need to talk to me about?”
“I told them.” He nodded, suddenly actually looking serious.
“What did they say?”
“Well, Perrie and Dani jumped up and hugged me, El, Louis, Liam, and Zayn said they were okay with it as long as I’m happy, and Niall kind of stormed out.” He looked kind of worried then.
“You don’t think Niall would tell anyone, do you?” I shook my head, dismissing the ridiculous thought.
“Never. Niall has been one of my best friends since we were seven. Even if he didn’t like it, he would never tell anyone.”
“If you’re sure.”
“Believe me, I am.”
