Harry’s POV

As Hailie showed me the school, I couldn’t stop staring at her. I love her eyes: sparkling brown. Like Niall said earlier, she was small. She had long curly ginger hair finishing at the end of her back. Her glasses rested on her thin nose and her cheeks were puffed. Even if she had bags underneath her eyes, she was still beautiful.

‘’… that’s about it. Can we sit down? I kinda had a short night…”

I wasn’t paying attention to her words, but to her features. I looked away, hoping she hadn’t caught me. I don't want my first impression to be a psycho.

‘’Eh… Yeah. Outside?’’

‘’Alright!’’ she said, with a smile.

We sat on a bench. The weather was soft, but damp. I rolled up my sleeves.

‘’So, your accent tells me you’re not from here.”

I smiled, revealing my dimples. ‘’Indeed. I’m from Holmes Chapel, in Cheshire, which is in England. We moved because of my mum’s job. But I’ve heard some familiar accents.’’

‘’Yeah, Louis, Eleanor, Perrie and Sam are from England too. Niall’s from Ireland. It's been a long time he's here, but he still manage to keep his Irish's accent. There is a big number of students coming from England. I guess your country loves Oregon!’’

We laughed.

‘’So, tell me.’’ I started. ‘’ Your accident in chemistry.’’

She sighed. ‘’Why is everyone asking me! Jeez!’’ She seemed angry.

‘’It’s okay, you don’t have to tell me! I-I was just curious, that’s all.’’

Her eyes met mine. She turned her head quickly. As I was about to ask her if she was alright, I heard her laugh.

‘’Gotcha!’’ She shouted, really amused.

I laughed. ‘’Are you doing this to everyone?’’

‘’Actually, yeah. I’ll tell you, but first, don’t think I’m a party animal addicted to the wrong things. I’m so not like that. Anyway, Will dragged me to a party, and I drank way too much. Of course, my dad doesn’t know about it. I said I was crashing at Niall’s. I lied. It… It can be weird, but I don’t regret my act. I was sick and tired of arguing that night, so I guessed that party could sort of put back on my good mood. I hate arguing with my father, but it just… I don’t know.’’

‘’Well, maybe if you explain that to him-’’

‘’No.’’ she cut me. ‘’I tried, and he just doesn’t care.’’

‘’Alright, then try with your mother?’’

Hailie’s POV

My eyes were locked down to the grass. Talking about my mother was the last thing I wanted to do. I finally looked at him. His head was a little leaned to the right, looking at me. That's when I really saw his face: he had curly brown hair, hiding his forehead. He's nose wasn't too big, but not too small. He was really handsome. Something caught my curiosity. His eyes. Holy shit. A lightning green.

‘’Is there something wrong?’’

I jumped. Shit, shit, shit. Hailie!

‘’I-I’m sorry. It’s just… I don’t really want to talk about it…’’ I finally said, blushing because I was staring at him.

‘’Don’t worry about it. Thanks for showing me around. I think we should head back inside.’’ He said, pointing at his watch. We got up. I think I’m going in history, then math. Eleanor had a lot to explain.

‘’What’s your next class?’’ I asked him.

‘’Uh… I’m not sure. I think it is history.’’

‘’Well I’ll see you there.’’ I said when we entered the school. We waved goodbye and I headed to my locker. As I was doing my lock code, two hands grabbed my shoulders. A creepy voice whispered:

‘’Give me your soul.’’

I jumped, laughing.

''Just reminding you I don't own a soul?'' I replied.

I had a running gag with Will: because we have red hair, we used to tease each other telling we didn’t have a soul. We have nothing against red hair people! It’s just. You know: Will. The bell rang.

‘’Oy, in what are you going guys?’’ Niall joined us, resting on the other lockers. He showed us his books. ‘’English, please?’’

‘’Nope.’’ I replied, popping the ’p’.

‘’Ugh, we have no class together yet!’’

‘’Don’t worry, pal. I’m in yours!’’ Will said.

‘’I’m heading to history, then math, and I’m finishing with…’’ I looked at my schedule. ‘’…Phys Ed.’’

Niall’s face brightened. ‘’I have these two too! Score!’’ He said his fist in the air.

‘’Well, I’ll be honored to kick your ass in whatever sports we are practicing.’’

‘’In your dreams, sweetie. Oy, Will. Are you finishing in Phys Ed too?''

Will shook his head, disappointed.

‘’Ah, that sucks. We were so awesome last year!’’ Last year, Will, Niall and I had Phys Ed class at the same time. We were on fire!

I closed my locker and we walked in History.

‘’See you in Phys Ed!’’ Niall shouted, before turning the corner with Will.

I entered the class, searching for Louis. He was supposed to be in my class. I have an investigation to do. Talking about the devil, I saw him. I walked towards him, putting down my books next to Louis’ desk.

‘’Hey, Hailie!’’

‘’Hey lover boy!’’

Louis looked at me, confused.

‘’What happened between you two?’’ I asked.

‘’Don’t know of who you’re talking ‘bout.’’ I could see his eyes soften. He knew of who I was talking about.

‘’Listen, here.’’ I clapped my hands in front of his face to bring back his attention. ‘’As your friend, I think I’m allowed to say this to you and because I'm tired to wait for things to move: Eleanor loves you.’’

His face lighted up. ‘’She-she does?’’

‘’What? Everyone knows you two are attracted to each other, but not you two guys? Seriously, are you mentally blind?’’

“I-I… I guess…’’ he mumbled.

I never saw him like that before. Louis seemed so scared. Habitually, he was always ready to face the challenge, head first. And now, he wasn’t sure of what to do. Oh boy.

‘’So…’’ I said, encouraging Louis.

‘’So I’ll give it a shot.’’

My mouth opened wide. ‘’FINALLY!’’ I yelled, leaning back with my two fists up. I jumped in his arm.

‘’Gosh, I’ve waited all summer for you to realize El and you were meant to be!’’

As I pulled off from Louis, Harry came in class. He waved at me. I made a sign to come and sit next to us. He smiled, revealing is dimples. As he approached, the bell rang.

‘’Okay, let’s make that short and sweet.’’ started the teacher. ‘’You guys all know me, except uh…’’ He looked over the list of name. ‘’… Harry. Well, welcome! I’m Mr. Fisher. I’m not the type of teacher who’ll give you big incomprehensible homework. I’ll barely give homework, but, we will always work in class. I assure you, it won’t be boring as it is in French.’’

We all laughed at his comment. Mr. Fisher was my favorite teacher of all. The way he was talking, gesturing, it was always funny.

Harry’s POV

I couldn’t stop staring at Hailie. I’m happy we met. I was really scared when I first walked in school. I hoped to, at least, talk to someone, maybe making friends. When I entered biology this morning, I was more than scared. Mrs. Flores didn’t help me. All the eyes were looking at me, I could heard them whispering to each other ‘’Who’s that? Is he in the wrong class?’’ When I saw a place to sit, I looked up and I met her gaze. Those beauti-

‘’Harry, it’s not polite to stare at someone like that.’’ whispered Hailie.

Shit.

I laughed, embarrassed she saw me staring. She pulled out her tongue. I leaned so she could hear me:

‘’Sorry to hurt you, but I was wondering how a girl like you could be so small.’’

She mimicked someone who was really offended, and then she chuckled.

Notes

Yo fellows!
So, as people can see, I've made a big, big, BIG mistake... I deleted my chapters... lol
Yes, as I'm writing this note, I'm actually writing chapter 26, so how the hell do I have only 3 chapters posted?!
Well, that's call "being stupid version Marie-Ève''. Yes, I'm not proud of myself...
And as you can see, I'm giving my chapters some title! 'Chapter 1', Chapter 16'... I thought it was pretty boring and not original! So, I'm putting title!
Maybe when you'll read this note, I'll be writing chapter, I don't know, 30, and you'll be like 'what the hell is she talking about in her note?' So, I'll explain what happened, so everyone can understand how stupid I can be...
So, it's been maybe 2 weeks I've post chapter 25 and I had just finished refining my story, and as I scrolled down through my chapters, I remarked, like I said earlier, 'Chapter_' was a really boring title for a chapter. So I decided to give them cool and meaning title. But when I reached 'Chapter 3', well that stupid computer decided to not work, and I was unable to open that chapter. But, I was able for the others chapters. You see, that computer of mine is more complicated than us, girls. (I'm not mean, even if we deny it, we're complicated. I am.) So, because I couldn't edit 'Chapter 3', like a fool I am, I said to myself 'Uh, I'll deleted it, and post it another time! With a new title!'. But what I hadn't thought, was that by deleting it, all my chapters had shifted places. Like, it was doing: '3. Chapter 4' '4.Chapter 5'. I was so mad at myself and I was slapping my face for being such an idiot without thinking about my action!
So now... I had to delete everything after chap. 3... So here I am... Reposting what I already posted... So I'm sorry xD

Please, forgive my tiny brain for not thinking. LOL
Anyway, thanks for ready, this means a lot to me! :D
