The next day, Claire called Callum and Eleanor over since her mom wasn't home and she wanted to hang out with her two best friends. They showed up around 12:30 with a box of pizza that they ate in Claire's bedroom floor. She wore a baggy hoodie and pajama shorts while her friends also wore lazy clothes.
Around 3, they turned a film on Callum's laptop and all sat in bean bags beside the bed to watch the screen.
And at 3:15, someone tapped softly on Claire's window
"Uh, what is that?" Eleanor asked as she turned to look at the window
"Oh fu.." Claire muttered as she got up and scrambled onto the bed.
Callum paused the film and him and Eleanor stood, confused, and watched as Claire pulled back the curtain and revealed Harry Styles standing outside her window
She pulled it open and he crawled in.
"Oh, hello" he greeted the two extra standing in the room, "Didn't know Claire had company"
"You should've asked before showing up then" Claire mumbled as she shut the curtains without actually closing the window
"Need your number for that, love"
She blushed at the nickname while her friends raised their eyebrows.
"Give me your phone then" she sighed
He happily handed over his unlocked phone and she put her number in his contacts.
"is that all you needed?"
"Just wanted to hang out" he shrugged
Claire looked at her friends uneasily. Callum shrugged. He didn't mind. Eleanor just looked anywhere but at the frat boy and her friends.
"Uh.. sure. Just.. Look, these two are confused as to why you're here" Claire rambled
"Oh, Claire and I are friends. We started talking in our English class and in the halls.. and Luke is a douchebag so we get along now" he said as if it was no big deal
"Are you the one that hit Luke?!" Callum asks, a smile growing on his face
"Yep. He's a dick and he was attacking Claire.. I stepped in, hit him, and drove her home"
"and out to lunch" Eleanor muttered under her breath
"I think that was very nice of him" Callum countered her sarcastic comment and nodded thankfully to Harry
Harry just smiled and sat on Claire's bed. She sat softly next to him while Callum sat back down in a bean bag and Eleanor took the desk chair
"We were just watching a film" Claire sighed
"Don't let me stop you. I just didn't want to be home and I enjoy being here" Harry told her politely
"You've been here before?" Eleanor asked, "When?"
"Yesterday when he drove me home"
Eleanor raised her eyebrows and nodded before turning away and looking at the wall of photos beside the bed.
"Do you have a problem with me...?" Harry asked slowly
"No. What gave you that impression?" El answered sarcastically
"Hey, he's being nice! You're the one being rude" Callum muttered
"Maybe I should leave.. Let you guys get back to hanging out.." Harry stood
"No." Callum sighed and stood
Eleanor frowned and Claire seemed upset
"Eleanor, stopped being a jealous bitch. If you're gonna be rude, you can leave. Sure, Harry's a frat boy and we don't know him very well- no offense, Styles- but he's being kind to Claire and she's stepped out of her comfort zone by talking to him so can't you just suck it up and be accepting and nice for once?"
Wow.
Everyone was shocked at Callum's outburst..
Harry plopped back down on the bed by Claire who gently grabbed his arm since she was surprised and worried about Callum and Eleanor.
"Claire, call me later" Eleanor mumbled as she grabbed her purse and walked down stairs
