The ugly truth

Chapter 7

Kristy's POV

"So that guy that was at your house? What's his name?" Ashton asked as we walked to the cafeteria together.

I hesitated as I decided whether or not to tell him about Harry.

"His name is Harry, Nothing happened between us in that kind of way, we were just kidding around outside."

He nodded and a half-hearted smile found it's way to his lips as he intertwined his fingers with mine. The small gesture made my eyes widen in surprise.

"So you've never done anything with him?"

I scoffed at his question and a quiet laugh escaped my lips.

"No he's not really my kind of guy, but we work on um assignments together."

Assignments? Really Kristy?

I guess you could count getting Ashton as an assignment.

"Wait is he the same Harry that does the ugly truth on the school news?" He asked and suddenly grew tense for some reason.

I rolled my eyes at his words.

"Yeah he is, we work on the news team together as well." I spat still not liking the fact that people only watched our news reports for Harry stupid segment.

"Wow I didn't know you worked on the school news!" He exclaimed proudly and squeezed my hand making me blush and look down at my feet.

Harry continuously told me not to talk too much about being on the school news because it was 'nerdy' and wouldn't get guys interested in me.

Maybe for once in his life he was wrong?

"So exactly how close are you two as friends?" He pushed further and I grew confused as to why he cared so much.

"Not that close at all really. Why?"

He paused for a minute and looked down at his shoes before answering me.

"I was just wondering, like do you guys tell each other everything?"

I was starting to get concerned with his constant questions.

Hesitantly, I let go of his hand and rubbed mine together in an attempt to warm them up.

"We don't tell each other that much." I shrugged and thought back to a few days ago when Harry was at my house.

After he came back inside from his smoke he didn't sit with me and he barely said one word before he bolted out the door as soon as the movie had ended.

It was really strange and since then I haven't been able to get him to tell me what was wrong.

Ashton's little twenty question game had ended now and we walked down the hall together in silence, I crossed my arms over my chest as a way of making sure he didn't hold my hand again.

It's not that I didn't like the gesture, but we aren't dating and I don't want the rest of the school to notice and think of me as easy.

As we turned the corner, one of the first things I saw was Harry arguing with Brittany.

The schools number one slut.

I uncrossed my arms to try and find the news script for Harry that was in my bag but before I had the chance too Ashton intertwined his fingers with mine again.

Brittany caught a quick glimpse of our intertwined hands and lowly growled before stomping off, this has to be the first time that anyone has ever been jealous of me so I kept my hand locked in Ashton's.

When Harry finally looked up at us, he rolled his eyes before pulling his phone out of his pocket and trying to look busy as we walked closer.

It wasn't very often that anyone saw Harry at school without some blonde bimbo trying to get his love or attention but Harry being the egotistical jerk he is only uses them to rest his hands on their asses.

"Do you mind if I talk to Harry alone for a minute?" I asked Ashton quietly and he nodded before walking further down the hall to my locker.

I took a deep breath before walking closer to Harry.

"Hey, I haven't heard from you since you left my house the other day."

He audibly gulped before locking his phone and looking up at me.

"I've just been busy Kristy, nothing's wrong."

I scrunched my eyebrows together as I looked at him confusingly.

"I never said anything was wrong. I just need your help with Ashton for a few more days then I think I will be able to take it from there."

"I beg to differ." He scoffed and crossed his arms over his chest as he leaned his back against the wall.

My eyes wondered away from his and down to his arms that were flexed since he had his arms crossed.

He has some really nice arms.

I quickly snapped out of it and looked back up at him.

"What is that suppose to mean?" I asked slowly and he glared at me.

"Ashton isn't worth all this effort Kristy!" He snapped making me take a few steps away and shush him as I looked down the hall to see if Ashton had heard but thankfully he hadn't.

"Will you keep your voice down and please explain what the hell you're talking about!"

He looked at me intensely for a while before sighing.

"You know what never mind. I must just be going crazy without my daily blonde." He smirked making me roll my eyes.

"Why do you bother with all those girls and tell them all those mean things about how you could never love them?" I asked.

He shrugged and ran his fingers through his hair.

"Maybe you should find a girl with a real brain and real hair. I'm sure you could find at least one girl at this school that doesn't need to wear short skirts to feel attractive." I threw my hands up in the air as I talked, letting all my frustration out.

"Maybe I should do that." He whispered and suddenly stepped closer to me.

"But what if I lost my chance before I even tried?"

I blinked a few times trying to figure out what he meant but it didn't make any sense.

"I'm begging you Harry, just stop telling girls what they can't be loved for and find someone who you love despite all those things because the truth is that love is ugly no matter what."

His eyes widened as he took in what I said.

He may believe that you can't love someone because of their flaws but I believe that someone's flaws is more reason to love them.

It makes them special.

"What if I don't have to look as hard as you think?"

"Then treat her differently to how you treat other girls. Show her you actually care." I jabbed my finger in his chest to make the point and he softly chuckled.

"Trust me Kristy, I already do."
