Can you keep a secret?

“Are we there yet?!” Brenda moaned from the back seat.
“Hey, you where the one that wanted to go to this so badly!” I looked into the rear view mirror and saw her sprawled out in the backseat like a kid.
Harry just sat in passengers seat-being smart-and not butting into a teenage girl's argument. I looked over at him. He caught my gaze I quickly looked away.
I awkwardly reached for the radio, and tried to break the awkward stiff silence. 'Sad Girl' by Lana Del Rey playing. I have all of Lana's music on my phone that was currently plugged into the radio.
“He's got the fire” Harry mumbled along with the song. It made me smile.
“Why do you like Lana Del Rey, and her sad, depressing songs?” Brenda sat up.
“Because the songs have such a deep meaning, and her voice just calms me. I think she puts so much emotion into her songs. That's why I like her 'depressing' songs.”
We passed a sign that told us a beach was 9 miles away.
“Can we just go to beach instead?” Brenda wined laying back down in the back seat.
“It's cold out Brenda.” Harry finally spoke.
“We don't have to get wet.” Brenda said in a 'duh' tone.
I rolled my eyes at her.
“Ugh, Harry are you okay with that?” I looked over at Harry. He sighed before nodding. “Okay, fine.”
I turned into the right lane so I can get off the exit. We eventually made it to the beach after weaving through traffic. There was apparently a sale going on at a store and the road was packed.
As soon as the car stopped, Brenda opened the door and ran out onto the beach. The car wasn't even parked yet. I finally parked the car and I sighed.
“Hey thanks for coming with me by the way. I really appreciate it.”
“My roommate was having a loud party tonight anyways. Even though he know I have work tomorrow.”
“Where do you sleep then?”
“Oh I get a hotel.”
“Do you want to sleep in our guest room? I'm sure my dad would be fine with it.”
“Why are you so nice to me?”
“I honestly don't know you seemed nice so. I really don't know I've never thought about it.” I sighed and pulled the keys out of the ignition.
Harry didn't respond he just climbed out of the car, and made his way over to where Brenda has put her shoes down. 'Did I say something wrong?' I thought as I pulled out the blankets that were in the trunk, from the last beach trip.
I made my way over to where Harry stood. I took my shoes off in the process as I walked over to the boy with a full head of curls. I nudged him and lifted up the blankets so he got the hint to help me spread them out.
“Does she do this often or do you normally just have beach blankets in your car?” Harry plopped down after spreading out the blanket.
“No there just there from the last time I went to the beach. Which was months ago. I don't ever really clean out my car.” I chuckled as I plopped down next to him and looked over at him.
He looked over to me. He then again caught my gaze and we made eye contact. This time he was the one who looked away awkwardly. I looked around looking for Brenda I started getting panicked, because I didn't see her, until I looked over to my left and she was sitting there flirting with a bunch of guys.
I rolled my eyes. 'Typical' I thought.
“So how does your father allow you to be friends with her?” Harry mumbled and looked from Brenda back to me.
“He trusts me, not to make stupid decisions. I know what's right from what's wrong.” I sighed propping myself up on my elbows.
“You're very mature for your age you know that.” Harry looked at me again.
“I get that a lot.” A cocky smile appeared on my lips.
Harry just laughed and laid down on the blanket. I did the same and we both sort of looked up at the stars in silence. It wasn't a awkward silence it was a calming, friendly silence.
“Hey guys, I'm going home with this hunk.” Brenda grabbed her shoes, as she broke the silence, and winked at the guy behind her.
“Use protection.” I mumbled feeling awkward with Harry next to me.
“Duh, I ain't getting pregnant, especially not with his child, he may be hot but he's not dad material. He probably doesn't even have a job, or his own place to live.” Brenda whispered so the guy behind her wouldn't hear.
“Okay bye Brenda.” I felt really awkward, especially with Harry next to me.
With that she jogged into the strangers arms, and followed him to his car, where his friends where waiting for them.
I awkwardly looked at Harry again. He was already looking at me. I set him a awkward smile, and he set one back.
“Harry” Harry made a 'mmm' sound “Are we friends?” I looked back up at the stars waiting for the harsh refection I was about to receive.
“I consider you my friend.” He turned his head so he was now looking at me me.
“I do too.” I smiled and turned my head so I was now looking into his eyes.
“Friends” He mumbled.
“Friends.”
