thank you so much for always supporting me and sticking by even though i'm lousy at updating haha. 

ALSO THIS IS SO UNORIGINAL AT SOME PARTS SORRY LOL
the theme literally took me 1 hour to come up with bc i didn't want to be cliche and then finally i thought of harlena and thats how it happened ((also my homecoming theme was dancing with the stars))

Harry's POV: 

I hold onto Sel's hand tightly as we walk through the entrance of high school, keeping her closely by my side. Lately, it seems like I have to be the one to initiate any intimate gestures. Even though I said sorry and she apologized as well, she still continues to act a bit distant. Her kisses are still sweet but I feel like I have to force her to respond. 

God I fucked up badly. I just didn't know it'd be like this. 

April is in full swing and everyone is super excited as the school year is now dwindling down. Stupid prom posters hang around, draping down from balconies and sticking onto lockers. 

Make the Stars Dance and Make Midnight Memories. 

Considering how the dance ends at eleven, an hour before midnight actually strikes, that's a fucking stupid theme. 

We finally reach our lockers and I reluctantly loosen my grip on her to allow Selena to get her books. I notice another damn poster taped to my locker, resulting in me to roll my eyes and groan. This shit is so unnecessary. Without a second doubt, I rip the paper off, crumbling it into a ball before throwing it behind my shoulder.

"This shit is so stupid. Who would ever want to go?" I huff in frustration. There's way too big of a deal on something so pointless.

"You don't like school dances," she seems to be asking me but the phrase comes out more like a statement.

"I hate them. They're filled with people at school," I groan. I pretty much hate everyone at school except Selena.

"That's kind of the point, Harry. It's a school dance," she rolls her eyes. 

"Why would I want to spend time with people from school when I don't have to? I would do anything to not see these fuckers anymore," I shrug. 

"Fuck, Liam wants me to help him do something," the jolt of my phone in my back pocket suddenly reminds me of my chore. 

"I'll see you later, yeah?" 

She simply nods and I sigh at her lack of reaction, before tilting her chin upwards and leaving a kiss. I continue to stare at her until she sends me a weak smile. Sighing once again, I finally pull myself apart and walk out towards the parking lot. 

"What did you want, Li?" I fold my arms across my chest.

"As you know, prom is coming up. I'm going to ask Dani and I need some help."

"Oh, don't involve me with this shit," I groan.

"What did you have in plan?" Louis cocks an eyebrow.

"Well, you know Dani is a dancer so I've come up with a quick routine for us..." Liam starts but I cut him off.

"Oh, hell no. Hell, no."

"Come on! I'll help you ask Selena if you do me this one favor, man," Liam begs but I shake my head.

"I'm not asking Selena to prom."
