Wrecking Ball

The garage falls into an awkward silence as Harry and I come down from our highs.

Suddenly there is a knock at the garage door and Louis pokes his head in.

"Good and bad news guys." Louis says as he saunters into the garage coming to sit in the seat between Harry and I.

He puts both his arms around us, I snuggle into the crook of his arm. I had become quite fond of Louis in the few days I've known him.

"The good news is the airport has found my luggage!" Louis exclaims and Harry and I cheer.

"The bad news is, they don't have our shipping address here in Canada, and it's almost impossible to get ahold of 'em. So Dad and I have to fly back to England to get them." Louis finishes sadly.

"When are you flying out?" I ask sadly.

"The earliest Dad can leave is next Friday, unfortunately. I guess I'm stuck wearing Harry's clothing until then." Louis sighs and Harry groans, obviously not fond of the idea.

"What about me? Am I coming?" Harry asks hopefully.

"Er, No. Dad said he doesn't want you missing school." Louis says and then winks. "Don't do anything I wouldn't do." He finishes.

Harry groans again.

"Oh relax you big baby, we'll only be gone for a week." Louis says chuckling and ruffling Harry's mop of curls.

"Anyway, I came round to tell you Dad wants you home to unpack." Louis says to Harry.

"Hey Ria, I was gonna ask you before but you left. Would you like to come help repaint the house on Saturday? We could definitely use the extra help." Louis says to me.

"Yeah, I'd love to." I say smiling.

Harry and Louis rise from their seats and turn to leave. Harry turns back to me.

"Hey Ria, if it's nice out tomorrow do you want to walk to school or something?" Harry says.

"Uh Mitch usually drives me, but yeah I'll tell him not to get me and we can just walk." I say to him.

"Great." Harry says grinning. He turns to leave.

"Dont forget band practice tomorrow!" I call after him as he leaves me alone in the garage.

I go inside, the cookies Mom baked earlier are on the table, I take one and bite into it. The chocolate swirls on my tongue and I moan. It was so good.

I finish my cookie, grab a drink of milk and then head upstairs to my room. I'm only in my room for five minutes when my phone rings. I look at my caller ID to see it's Jess.

"Hello?"

"OHMYFUCKINGGOD RIA!" I hear Jess scream from the other end.

"YEAH?" I yell back giggling.

"MITCH TOLD ME HE LOVES ME!" Jess yells back laughing.

"I knew it!" I exclaim.

"So now what?" Jess asks.

"What do you mean 'Now What'? Didn't you tell him you love him too?" I ask angrily.

"Er, not exactly." She says flatly.

"JESSICA MACINTYRE!" I scream.

"Whaaaaaat?" She whines. "I said me too."

"Jess you need to tell Mitch you love him too, you've only been waiting to for what? Three years now?"

I hear her sigh on the other end.

"Yeah I guess you're right Ri. I'll tell him tomorrow, Make sure he comes to smokers at lunch!" Jess says referring to the smokers pit.

"Sounds like a plan Jess." I say and she hangs up the phone.

I flop down on my bed and sigh, looking back at the long eventful day that had just taken place. I seriously cannot believe what went down with Hannah, Mitch and Jessica.

As I slowly finish coming down from my high, my eyes begin to feel heavy. My last thoughts before sleep clouds my brains are the words I said to Harry.

Nobody breaks my heart.
