My heart was pacing fast while going out from the town. I curled my toes and was literally shaking inside.
“H-Harry! I thought you would take me to the party place.” I said in a low voice.“Yes Stella! I’m taking you to the party place and the party is in outskirts.” He made an irritated face.“Harry...” Before anything came out from my mouth, he yelled “Stella! If you act like you don’t want to spend your time with me then it won’t be good for you.”I became silent listening to him. I didn’t dare to talk back anything. A part of me was dreading about it but I kept calming myself repeating the words Jennie and Jessie would be there too.We reached the place and I saw three tents were arranged. There were few lights hanging from the branch of tree that were giving enough light to see the things. Jessie, Jennie and their boyfriends were already there.Harry leaned a bit and whisI slowly opened my eyes hearing Harry’s voice. I sat straight still recalling the things that happened last night. “Come out. We are leaving.” He said. We both strolled out and saw everyone there. “Morning Stella!” Jessie greeted. I forced a smile and greeted back.“Enjoyed the night, huh?” Jennie laughed.Harry and I, both kept quiet. We didn’t reply anything to her. We then started to leave the place. Harry and I drove off in a car whereas they all started in another car. All were going to Harry’s house except Harry and I. We were heading to mine. The entire drive was silent. Neither I spoke, nor he. I could see guilt crept over his face. He was not even driving properly. We reached my home and when I was about to got out of the car, he called my name. “Stella!” I turned my face to his side and started hearing him. “I...” he let out a sigh and sai
After college, I went to Harry’s house. Though there was no dance practice as his hand was not completely set, I went to see him. More likely to talk to him about Ben. I reached his house and saw Granny sipping her coffee mug. “Hey granny!” I walked to her smiling. As soon as she saw me her face glowed. She stood from the chair and embraced me. “Stella! It’s been long time.” I puller her out from the hug with my mouth wide opened.“Long time? It’s not more than a week ago. I always come for practice. It’s because Harry’s hand was not totally recovered, I didn’t come.” I raised my eyebrow. She raised her eyebrow hearing me. “So you come here for only Harry? Not for me?” she pouted like a kid.“Oh granny, come on! Not like that.” I took her face between my palms saying “You are my sweetheart. You know, one of the reasons I accepted to do my danc
Harry and I were getting closer day by day. The things he does for me, his ways to make me laugh and his everything was drawing me towards him. Most of the guys and girls started envying our relationship. If I say the truth, I loved it. It’s the first time I ever loved the thing like that. It felt like he belongs to me. I was changing a lot in his presence.I started spending most of my time in Harry’s house talking to him, laughing, dancing and enjoying. Looking at us, my mom once asked what’s going on between us. She also said it looked like we both had something. I replied it was nothing but I felt she was right. There was something between us both which I couldn’t figure out. Anna and Roman became more close than us. They started behaving like a couple. Roman was not leaving Anna anytime. They both started roaming the town leaving Harry and I. One day they were caught by Anna’s mom while roaming the town. Luckily Harry and I reached the s
Anna and I was overjoyed when I won the competition. We both began dancing and jumping in my room with high volume music turned on. My mom and dad was really feeling proud as I won it. Anna and I was doing weird, crazy movements shouting. “I’m the town’s dancer.” I shouted while dancing. I know I was exaggerating but I couldn’t stop it. To become the town’s dancer had been my dream since many years and it happened. How could I control myself? “Yes you are, Stella. I’m so happy.” Anna said while swaying her body. Panting heavily I sat on the bed laughing. Anna sat beside me smiling. “I literally lost two times even I had a perfect partner, Noah with me. But this time, damn! I won it. Thanks to Harry” I shouted, laughing. “I think you and Harry can make a perfect pair. You both look really cute. I wish you have chemistry between you both.” She laughed. Hearing her I bit my
From the next two days after the competition, everyone started preparing for their exams. As I was so involved in my studies I didn’t get chance to spend my time with Harry. I didn’t want to neglect my studies so I stopped being with Harry. Whenever he was with me, he always consumes time. I wouldn’t understand how time pass when he was with me. To avoid that I stopped meeting him. I was not with him physically but my thoughts always wandered to him. Our laughs, talks and mainly our dance. I missed our dance more than anything. It was the time I loved more when I was with him. I wanted to be with him but I decided to do the opposite when I noticed my assessment marks. I scored very low. It was the first time ever I got much less score. My mom said I was not concentrating on my studies and I was changed. She was right. I had been neglecting my studies and I didn’t want to do it more. After having my lunch, I sat on my study chair to read. On weeken
With all the thoughts I kept smiling. I took out my cell phone and called Anna. “Anna!” I shouted. “Whoa! What happened?” She asked. “I’m coming to your house.” Saying that I ended the call. I strolled to her house and with in few minutes I reached. Excitedly I entered in the house and saw Anna eating popcorn. Her mom might not be there. “Anna!” I shouted taking a seat beside her. “What happened?” My cheeks became red while thinking about Harry. I was finding words to tell how I feel about him to Anna. “Stella! Is everything okay?” Anna narrowed her eyebrows. “I...” I cleared my throat and said “I want to be Harry’s real girlfriend.” “What do you mean?” I let out a sigh and said “I love Harry.” Hearing my sentence, Anna dropped her popcorn looking at me with widened eyes. “You
It’s been nearly thirty minutes since Anna, Roman and I came to a restaurant. They both were behaving like I didn’t even exist. Roman was flirting with Anna and that stupid was blushing ignoring me. I just sat there like a statue. They can atleast involve me in their talks. Why the hell did she take me with her? Oh yeah! To cover up. If someone notices her then she would cover up with the sentence she came with me and Roman was my friend. Pity on the life of friends!I too ignored them concentrating on my juice. I never expected I would be in the situation where I had to cover for this Auburn's love. While I was drinking my juice, my cell phone buzzed. I saw Harry’s name popped on my screen. Smiling, I opened his message. “What is that my princess doing there? Missing her prince?” – Harry. Damn! Just his flirts were making me blush. How would I feel if he really loves me? “At restaurant with Anna and Roman. Sat like a
The next few days were same. Chatting with him and dreaming about him. I never imagined I would go crazy for a crazy guy. I was eagerly waiting for Harry and granny’s arrival. Though I knew he was not interested in any kind of love and such things, I had been hoping he wouldn’t leave me easily. Just with that thought I was getting relaxed but many things about our relationship had been bugging my head as always. The waiting for Harry’s arrival was over. The next morning they would reach here. I had waited more than twenty days for him but I couldn’t wait for just one night. I had been staring at the clock praying to pass the time fast. Was I acting childish? I thought for a moment. No, I’m not. I convinced myself.With all the thoughts and sleep for few hours, the night finished. I woke up the morning before the horrible alarm sound, freshened up and strolled to the living room. I saw my mom sat on the couch, reading the newspaper
