MAYA’S P.O.V.

            Everyone left at around 11:30. We all gathered around the front door and Harry and I said goodbye to everyone as they walked out to their cars.

            “Thanks for coming,” I told Tate as he walked out. He smiled and squeezed my hand goodbye. I could almost feel Harry tensing up behind me even though he was a couple feet away. I just knew it. I closed the door after them and turned to face him.

            “Hey,” he said happily.

            “Okay, what happened?” I asked immediately.

            “What are you talking about?” he said tilting his head.

            “Come on Harry, people’s noses don’t just randomly start bleeding, what happened?” I stepped closer to him and surprisingly, he took a step back.

            “We were just talking and he felt his nose and it was bleeding.”

            “Why was Louis holding you back though?” I asked.

            Harry’s eyes widened and I heard him catch his breath.

            “Why did you punch him, Harry?” I asked. My voice was getting quieter, and Harry knew that was when I was about to explode.

            His mouth fell open a little bit as if he was going to say something, but no words came out. I still couldn’t believe that he would actually punch Tate. Tate, one of my best friends.

            “What were you talking about, first of all?” I asked tilting my head at him.

            “Maya, you’re not going to believe me,” Harry said.

            “Tell me,” I said, trying to keep my temper.

            “Tate pulled me aside and he told me that you still love him, and I said that you didn’t.”

            “So you thought punching him would solve your problems?!” I exclaimed. Harry looked at me frowning.

            “Maya, you don’t understand! He said he was going to get you to fall in love with him again!” Harry’s voice was starting to rise also.

            “Harry he would never say that! I can’t believe you’re lying to me!”

            “I’m not lying to you Maya, that’s what happened!”

            “Oh yeah, what else did he say?” I retorted.

            “That’s all he said, but you have to believe me! I swear to you, he told me he was going to get you to fall in love with him again.”

            “I don’t believe you Harry! I know Tate, and he wouldn’t say something like that. He knows him and I are only friends. I can’t believe that just because you don’t like him, you would say something like that!”

            “Maya I can’t believe you don’t believe what I’m telling you!”

            “I don’t believe you because you’re lying to me! I just know you are Harry!”
