The Boy Next Door (H.S)

07. Blake

•Alex

My eyes flung open and I looked at the clock.

I sat up and Harry was already gone. Nice of him to wake me up for school, I missed a whole day.

I threw on my black skinny jeans and a tshirt. I put on my converse and jacket and went to my bathroom.

I brushed my teeth and hair and ran down stairs.

I left my bag and ran to school. I went to the soccer field and saw the boys scrimmaging.

I ran to the coach and sat on the bench next to him.

"Sorry I'm late." I apologized

"Yeah, we'll soccer practice is over so everyone's leaving just make sure to be here on time tomorrow." He said

I nodded in response and Harry and the rest of the boys walked over to the bench to get there water.

"Thanks for waking me up this morning." I said through gritted teeth.

"Hey, you should be thanking me I let you get your sleep, princess." Harry said

"Don't call me that."

"Okay Morgan." He smirked

"Don't call me that either!" I spat and elbowed him in his rib.

"Ouch, okay chill Alex."

We then started walking home in silence until I broke the silence.

"What game were you playing back there Styles?" I asked

"No game." He simply said.

"I know what game you flirt with me all the time. I think someone has a crush." I laughed

His cheeks soon became bright red and his eyes went wide.

"Okay think what you want to think but I know what I'm doing."

"Trying to make me fall for you." I said and walked inside the house.

I saw my aunt on the couch watching the bachelor.

"Typical you." I said to her laughing.

She looked over at me and smiled "you seem happy today, what's that all about?" She asked

"What, can a girl not be happy?"

"Okay." She said giving me a face that says 'I know that's not it'

I sighed and sat on the couch. I then brought my knees up to my chest and Harry Walked in the house with Mary.

"Hey sis." She said evilly

"Hey, but um...I'm not your sister and Angie's not my mom Joanna is." I fake smiled at her.

"Who told you?"

"I found out, my friend is my sister and my teachers my dad." I sighed

"Then why are you still living here with my aunt and my boyfriend?"

"I chose to stay here and Bailey is still going to be apart of my life like your parents there still my family and I hate to say this but so are you." I said

I got up and began to walk off. Harry grabbed my hand and I looked over at him.

He winked at me and I laughed. I looked over at Mary and rolled my eyes at her.

She looked at me and Harry's hands and slapped him across the face.

I put both my hands to my mouth and she stormed out the house.

"I guess I deserved that." He simply said.

"Aren't you going to go after her?" I asked

"Nope." He responded

I looked at my aunt and she just shrugged at me.

"Okay then." I said "I'm off."

"Where are you going?" Harry asked

"I'm going to meet Zoe and Nash." I lied well I lied partly.

I was just going to see Nash so we could talk.

He nodded and I left the house. I started walking towards the beach.

I soon arrived and saw Nash and Blake. Blake?

"Hey guys." I said

"Hey, just thought I could bring Blake along sense he knows the whole situation." Nash said and I nodded

Blake sighed.

We started walking across the beach and Nash left to get us all some ice cream.

"So hey um, homecoming is coming up and I was wondering if you wanted to go with me? Just as friends though." Blake asked me

"Sure." I answered and smiled at him

Nash came back with the ice creams and we sat down at a table.

When it became night I headed home for dinner and a shower.

"See you tomorrow guys." I said and left

When I got home I heard Harry on the phone.

"Yeah I'm going to Homecoming but can't we just go in a group? Me, you and Nash."

Okay now I'm pretty sure he's talking to Blake.

"What do you mean you already have a date? Dude we all planned to go in a group. Who's your date anyway?" Harry asked

Crap.

"Alex?!" He spat

S.hit.

I walked inside and smiled at Harry like I was the most innocent person in the world.

He hung up and walked upstairs.

"Where are you going?" I asked

"My bedroom." He snapped

5,4,3,2,1.

"My 'bed' is down here." He said and walked back down stairs.

"What's your deal anyway?" I asked

"Nothing." He simply answered

"Isn't your dad supposed to be back by now?" I asked yet another question.

"Haven't heard from him."

I sighed and walked towards the stairs.

"Why? Do you have a problem with me staying here?" He asked

"What?..no I don't I was just asking to see if he checked in with you. Harry your being a real Jack a.ss to me right now what's your deal?"

"Nothing it's just Blake that's all." He answered

"Then take it out on him not me."

"Sorry." He apologized

I then walked upstairs and jumped in the shower.

When I was done I got out and out my clothes on. I brushed my hair out and walked downstairs.

Harry was tossing and turning trying to get comfortable on the couch.

"Harry just go sleep in my bed it's really not that weird we share a bed were friends. You can just sleep on the end or I will it doesn't matter." I said

He got up and walked upstairs.

I went in the kitchen and made myself a bowl of pasta my aunt cooked.

I heated it up and sat down on the couch.

When I was done I placed it in the sink and walked upstairs.

I went to my bathroom and brushed my teeth.

I walked into my bedroom and saw Harry already asleep.

I got in and turned over so me and his back would be facing eachother.

I closed my eyes and fell into a deep slumber.
