Can you keep a secret?

“-you're going to get it on your shirt.” I laughed as Harry wasn't leaning over the table while eating. So if he shook the spoon just a little bit it would get on his white buttoned up shirt.
He shrugged which made me laugh harder. He took a spoonful to his mouth and he shook his spoon for a millisecond and the spoonful spilled on his white shirt.
“See, see I told you!” I playfully kicked his shin underneath the table.
“Ouchy.” He held his shin underneath the table.
“I didn't kick you that hard.” I got up and tried to wipe off the soup on his now stained white shirt.
I felt his toned chest through the shirt, I blushed, but I pushed those thoughts to the back of my head knowing me and him would never, ever happen. I got as much as I could off his shirt and went back around the table to my chair.
“So why did you decide to get 'The Vampire Academy'?” I took a bite of the turkey sandwich I ordered.
“Because you said it was a good book so I thought I might as well check it out.” He shrugged taking another bite of the soup and this time leaning over the table.
“Uh, so.” I mumbled trying to break the awkward silence.
“What grade are you in?” He asked trying to start a conversation.
“I graduated college last spring.” I took another bite of the sandwich.
“So what do you do all day long with nothing to do? Don't you get bored?”
“Harry, the word 'bored' can't even explain it. I've even tried getting like a small job at a coffee shop to give me something to do. But my father thinks that I'm above those people.” I sighed.
“Well, you are above those people. You're a smart, funny, and beautiful young girl. You just need to find what interests you.”
“Yeah right. My father wants me to marry one of his friend's sons, so then they can take over the business while I become a stay at home mom.” I threw my sandwich down onto the plate and sighed.
“I'm sure once you find that something that you want to do he'll understand.”
“I guess. I still love that man though.” I smiled. “Hey so tonight Brenda is dragging me to some stupid fair that's about a hour drive away from here. Would you please come with me, I won't know anybody there, besides Brenda, she's gonna probably be flirting and making out with some guy that's tags along with us.”
“You want me, a 23 year-old to go to a teenage gathering?”
“Yes, please?” I wined and gave him a pouty look.
“Fine, what time is it?” He groaned.
“YAY! It's at 7pm just come by my house, and I'll drive us there.”
Harry checked his phone “Synthia, I got to go like right now. It's way past my lunch break, your dad is going to kill me.” he threw on his leather jacket.
“I'll take care of the him killing you part.” I chuckled at him being so worried.
He slightly relaxed “Oh you're an angel.” He kissed my forehead and left jogging out to his car.
I was smiling like a idiot at this point.
After I got home I made the call to my dad telling him not to murder Harry. He simply agreed and chatted on like he normally does until Harry came into the office apologizing to my father, so now my father had to hang up get back to work.
I decided to watch some T.V. I decided on watching 'Dirty Dancing' because that movie is amazing. There was a knock at the door, probably Brenda. I paused the movie and made my way towards the door. I turned the gold knob and I was right there stood Brenda.
“Hey girl.” She left herself in and plopped down on the couch.
“Hey, listen I asked Harry if he could come with us tonight. Is that okay?” I asked awkwardly playing with my hands waiting for the answer.
“Of course, that's okay.”
“Okay I just wanted to make sure I mumbled.
I plopped down beside her, and continued watching the movie until it was time to go. During the movie I told Brenda all about what happened to me between the encounter with Allan to the lunch me and Harry had.
“OMG, does he have a six pack? Tell me does he have a six pack.” She shouted while shaking me.
She stopped shaking me and let me go. She just stood there looking at me with her mouth wide open.
“You so like him don't you.” She giggled.
“Oh eww Brenda. He's my dad's assistant.” I blushed.
“So, he's hot.”
There was a knock at the door, oh please be Harry so she will stop this conversation. I made my way over to the door, and turned the gold knob and was met with a boy with brown curls.
“Thank you for saving me from Brenda” I mumbled into his ear as Harry entered the house.
“I HEARD THAT!!” Brenda shouted from the living room.
“Nice to see you Brenda.”
“Mmm, nice to see you too Mr.Styles.” Brenda said in a seductive tone.
Harry just looked at me “Uh I do not know how to respond to that. Aren't you under aged?”
“Yup.” Brenda said popping the 'p'
“Just ignore her.” I lead him into the living room. “Stop it.” I glared at Brenda so maybe she'd get the hit.
She gave me a smirk and continued doing whatever ever it is she is doing on her phone.
