The Newbie

All the guys seemed to be enjoying the visit except for Harry. Whenever someone spoke to him he would answer in one syllable words or nods of the head. As I had expected Riley took the lead on giving the tour, which was fine by me. Ever since I was a little kid, our parents took us to look around campus and just watch the college kids. College always seemed so much fun.

"Harry! Dude can you pay attention. You know you applied here too!" Sam yelled at Harry at the same time Jack pushed him. It was then, they started a snowball fight in the middle of Duke's campus.

I have to admit it was pretty funny to see them all. It was the first time all day I saw Harry smile and relax. From the corner of my eye I saw a guy laughing at them. When I turned around I realized it was one of Riley's old lacrosse buddies who was in his second year at Duke. As I walked over to Tyler he stretched his arms open wide and grinned. He was like a second brother to me. If Riley did something to upset me, I would run to Tyler and he would basically taunt the crap out of Riley.

"Why am I not surprised to see the Fisher siblings on my turf," Tyler let out a chuckle as he finished the sentence.

"Just showing Riley's friends around. They applied and obviously so did Riley."
"And you tagged along because you couldn't resist seeing me right?" He winked and nugged my arm.
"Oh but of course Ty. That's the ONLY reason I'm back. Just to see you!" I joked, moving the hair that was falling from my face.
Two minutes later Tyler was running toward Riley and tackled him the ground.
"BRO! Why the hell have you not kept in touch. I mean I know London is great and all but what about us guys back here. I heard Suzzie hasn't even looked at a guy since you left."
Riley introduced everyone to Tyler and made some small talk. For the next hour and a half, Tyler decided to become the tour guide and took us everywhere where the students hang out.
"You do know there's a basketball game tonight right? You all should come. Fishers, I know you're parents have season tickets but I can get the rest of you in for free. Are you guys down?" Without hesitating the guys all nodded and high-fived Tyler.

Once again the ride back to the house was awkward but I can't think about that now. Maddie was coming over to get ready for the game. There wasn't a game we didn't miss. I mean it is Duke basketball and they are playing University of Miami.
"Okay, so you should wear something sexy, but not too sexy since it is a basketball game. But at the some time you want to impress him," Maddie was looking through all my clothes to help me figure out what to wear.
"Uh.. Yeah. I also don't wanna look like I'm trying too hard. You know? I mean he barely looked at me all day." I sat down by my vanity and started to apply some make up and started doing my hair. Maddie had brought over some blue hair spray that we always put into our hair. It took us about 2 hours to get ready. Before heading to the kitchen I sprayed, more like dumped, perfume on myself.
Jamie's outfit
Downstairs all the guys were dressed and ready to go. There was still 2 hours and a half before the game but we wanted to get there early so we could hang around Tyler's frat and pregame before hand. Harry was wearing one of Riley's Duke shirts and black jeans. Even though it was a tad big on him, he looked perfect. We all pilled into my car and headed out. This time, he actually spoke throughout the entire ride there. Maddie decided to sit in the back next to Sam which caused Harry to sit up front with me.
"So Jason isn't coming tonight?" Harry fiddled with the radio until he finally decided to plug his phone in and play Arctic Monkeys.
"No. He already had plans and I don't really want him here tonight. He doesn't get along with Tyler and he can be annoying during basketball games." I tried to laugh it off but he still seemed pretty upset that I knew where Jason would be.
"Have you spoken to Ashely recently?" That question threw me off guard. He hasn't mentioned Ashley since we got to North Carolina.
"Uhh. A couple of times but not a lot. Why?" I turned my head to look at him quickly to see his facial expression.
"Oh, no reason. She asked me to tell you to answer your phone more often." He laughed and shook his head. "Did I mention you look really nice tonight?"
At that exact moment, the radio lowered in volume and there was an echo of "aww's" coming from the back of the car. I could see Harry's face turn red from embarrassment.
"Thank you, you don't look bad yourself Styles" I turned the volume up just as we pulled into the driveway of Tyler's frat house.

Like every frat house, Tyler's smelled like alcohol, sweat, and weed. Most of the girls that were there were already drunk and stumbling around the living room. It's way too cold in the winter to party outside so most frats have smaller parties inside, which is nicer. I scanned the room to find Ty and not to my surprise, he had his arms wrapped around two girls and had a beer in each hand. Same old Ty. I waved and headed towards the kitchen to grab a drink. Maddie was following me everywhere since she had never been here before.
"So that conversation went well. Don't you think Jamie? He actually spoke to you and told you looked nice" She was grinning from ear to ear. It was kinda cute how she always manages to eavesdrop on other's conversations while she was having her own with a cute boy.
I had to laugh at her. "How could you possibly heard our conversation? You're incredible you know that?" I grabbed two unopened beers and handed one to Maddie. Of course she made a face since beer was not her thing, but it wasn't mine either. I wanted to find something harder but there was nothing the counter top which meant one of the boys was walking around with the bottle.

Riley and the guys were surrounded by girls who were telling them how much they "love" British guys. I mean really? How cliché can they be? I could tell Riley was bored out of his mind by the conversation and once he spotted me he made no excuse and ran over.
"God, I never realized how annoying girls can be. They literally didn't even say one..." Riley started to trail off mid sentence when someone caught his eye. Maddie and I both turned to where Riley was looking and we noticed that Suzzie was walking straight towards us. Great

"Hey Riley! Jamie. Mads" Suzzie did not seem too pleased that Maddie and I were there while she hugged my brother. Suzzie was not the nicest person and for some reason my brother was madly in love with her but he never told her. Everyone knew Suzzie thought my brother was the hottest guy at Cary but she had a boyfriend when we left. Her perfect dark hair was pulled back into a high pony tail and was wrapped with a royal blue bow. She was wearing an oversized Duke T-shit, which was probably her boyfriends, and ripped black jeans. Somehow, she always had her make done perfectly for every event she went. It didn't matter where she was going, her make up looked professionally done. She bothered me so much.
While Riley and Suzzie were talking and bringing up the past, I spotted a guy with a bottle of vodka and made my way over to him. The only thing that bothered me about vodka was the fact that it burned my throat every time I drank it but it still tasted delicious. I poured myself a bit too much and started wondering around.
"Do you see all these hot guys here?" I turned to Maddie and put my arm around her. "I think, once we both get into Duke and room together, we are going to have some awesome memories here." We both laughed and headed towards Harry and the other guys. Two of the original four girls were still there, flirting as hard as they could. It was pretty funny to watch them get rejected and not even know it.

"So, why didn't you tell me you were applying to Duke or to any school in the U.S.?" I whispered into Harry's ear, which apparently freaked him out since he didn't realize I was standing behind him.
"You never asked and plus we never really speak that often." As he answered, he lifted my cup and sniffed it. "So that's your poison huh love?"
I nodded and took another sip of my drink. "Wanna taste? I've already had a lot, as you can see" I had basically drank 1/3 of what I poured and I was starting to feel it.
I couldn't help but stare at him. He just looked so perfect in that grey shirt with his hair slightly messy but somewhat kept. I just wanted to run my fingers through his hair.
"Jamie... Are you okay? You're spacing out" He put his hand on the small of my back and I could feel the hairs on my neck stick up.
"Yeah. I was just uh.. Thinking" I straightened up and moved myself closer towards him.

"Alright everyone! It's game time! WOOOO!!" One of the guys, who had already taken off his shirt screamed so loud that I jumped a bit. One by one everyone was filling out of the house and walking towards the basketball stadium.
Without thinking, I grabbed Harry's hand and pulled him with me. I set my cup on a table on my way out and followed the crowd. As we walked I could feel my arm brush up against his. Since I was stumbling around, Harry grabbed my waist with one arm and had to guide me the whole walkway.

The game was incredible and long, since it went into double overtime. Duke won and everyone was going back to celebrate at the frat. None of the guys really wanted to go back and party with the guys, we all decided to get something to eat and have our own celebration party back at our place. Riley drove us back and I was snuggled into Harry in the back seat. He was so warm and smelled amazing. Thankfully I was sober and wasn't going to blurt out my thoughts like I normally do. Once we got home, Maddie and I changed into more relaxing clothes. My parents were away on business for the weekend, so we all had the house to ourselves, which meant that the party would last forever and it would get pretty wild. I quickly changed into a sweater and shorts and headed back downstairs.

Music was already being blasted throughout the house and drinks were already being poured.
We were starting off with some white wine and just talking.
"So, how about we play seven minutes in heaven?" Maddie said with a huge grin on her face.
