Trouble

Chapter 15

Marilynn

Harry and I can’t happen. No we just can’t. It’s already enough that we kissed, I most definitely won’t be admitting to that kiss being the best ever. Nathan was my first and only boyfriend so of course he was the only other guy I kissed. As much as I hate to admit it, Nathan’s many kisses don’t compare to the only one I shared with Harry.

I should be getting home in about forty-five minutes or so. Yeah the down side is that my papa’s cabin is at least two hours away from home. My phone began to ring and the icon I was dreading to see popped on my screen. Ugh great.

Incoming Call…
Mommy

Yeah I have to change the screen name.

“Hello.” I spoke into the phone.

“Mary, Where are you?” My mum ushered.

“I’m heading home, I’m just now coming back from the cabin.” I explained.

“What makes you think you can come home whenever you feel like it? I was a worried sick!”

“I get it mom.” The last thing I want is to hear my mother getting angry with me. I not a damn child; I know how to defend myself. She acts like I’m a delinquent.

“No Mary, You don’t get it, you never do! You leave whenever you want and you come back home whenever you feel like coming home.”

“Okay mom, I’m sorry. Please don’t get mad at me.” My voice spoke.

My mother sighed. “Marilynn, there are boundaries and you have to learn how to respect them. We’re having a discussion as soon as you get home. Understood?”

“Yes mom.” I replied in monotone.

“Okay bye dear, I love you.” She said.

“Bye.” Then I hung up.

“Your mum?” Harry asked. I wish my accent was as thick as his but my mom isn’t from here so

“Yeah, she’s worried and now we’re going to have the talk of the century.” I sighed.

“Not surprising, stay calm and don’t say anything wrong.” He said.

I sat up straight. “Wait what do you mean?”

“Let’s face it you’re already in enough trouble as it is. Play it cool and take it as an adult. Make her think she’s right.”

“Wow, that actually wasn’t stupid.” I said still in shock.

Harry lightly chuckled looking at me for half a second before his eyes focusing back on the road. “I’ve learned a thing or two from my days.”

“C’mon tell me the truth, how many gals have you had by your side in your high school days?” I smiled slightly.

“Not very many actually.” He’s lying. That’s impossible, he’s an attractive guy.

“You’re such a liar.” I joked.

“It’s true I’ve only had two real girlfriends.”

“So were the rest mannequins?” I laughed.

“Yeah, no. The girls that flirted with me were all about make-up and jewelry.”

“But the two other girls weren’t?” Now I was really curious.

“Well my first girl, well she was my first love I guess. We dated eight grade all the way to middle of junior year.”

“What happened? Like why aren’t you guys together anymore?”

“I was just getting to that.”

“Oh sorry. Continue Please.”

“Well I went to a party, she couldn’t go but I went anyway. I had way to many drinks. I still don’t remember much from that night. However that still isn’t an excuse for my unfaithfulness.”

“So you-‘

‘Cheated, yup.” He answered my unfinished question.

Oh my god. The similarities are inevitable. Should I tell him? Are we at that stage in our friendship yet? I mean we did kiss but still. I completely understand his ex girlfriend’s pain. Who’s the girl though?

“Um Harry, who was the girl?”

“I’ll tell you some other time. What happened with you and Nathan?”

“The same thing as you, we became friends in eighth grade and ended up going out until freshman year up until two months ago when he cheated on me. He was insanely drunk and high out of his mind. He claims he doesn’t even remember the cheating, he woke up next to a body that wasn’t mine.”

“I’m sorry.” Harry muttered.

“Don’t stress about it. It’s not your mist- well your mistake with me.”

“I know but it’s easy to see that you’re still upset about it.” He said.

“Eh they’ll be more heartbreaks, all I can do is cope.”

“You’re a wise one.” He looked down upon me.

Time past and before you know it, it I had to get out of the car and walk the last five feet home. “So I’ll see you some time?” I said stalling so I didn’t have to go.

“Some time?” Harry grinned awkwardly at me.

“Yeah.” I returned an awkward grin.

“Tomorrow? We can do something.” He said.

“Okay.” I said almost immediately.

“I guess its time for me to leave.”

“I guess.” He said before pecking me very lightly on the lips.

Confused by his sudden actions being the idiot that I am, I asked a dumb question. “Did I have something on lips?” How stupid can I get? Yeah Mary, so he took off that something by sucking your lips for not even a second.

Harry laughed. “No I-uh actually wanted to do that.” He said scratching the back of his neck.

“Okay I really have to go.” I smiled sweetly at him.

However he didn’t budge instead he gently grasped my hand, rubbing my thumb back and forth. I had never experienced something so romantic. “Bye, I’ll pick you up tomorrow.” Harry released my hand slowly.

I opened the car door, walking out. I knocked, waiting impatiently for my mother or sister to open sadly neither of them opened because standing before my eyes was Hitler.

Behind my ears was the sound of Harry driving away.
