Better Now

13•Unfortunate

Harry's pov

I pulled up and saw Alexis already out on the side walk waiting for me

She was in a tight black v-neck and light waist short shorts that had little rips and tears with a pair of black vans

She was wearing low pig tails

I pulled up she ran over hopping in I grabbed one of her pig tails "I like this" I hummed sweetly

"Yeah? I so rarely wear pig tails, I actually had these little bows but I took them off..." she mumbled biting her lip as she held up her fingers in a same gap to show how big the bow had been

I frowned "why?"

She shrugged "I dunno I thought I looked stupid"

I raised my brows "stupid?" I repeated "no I wanna see the bows next time"

She giggled lightly "okay" I gave her a quick kiss and started toward the movie theater

I couldn't help but notice that her thighs didn't necessarily fit in her shorts the cuff of the shorts squeezed her legs tightly causing her thighs to kind of budge out of the shorts a bit

God it was so damn hot

We pulled up I got out I reached for her hand to help her out of the car and to walk us to the front but she got out and tried to fix her shorts but they looked perfect- they had ridden up between her legs showing off the plump tops of her thighs

I grabbed one of her hands "your shorts are fine" I smiled

Call me selfish

She laughed "I just want to-"

"Are you trying to be a brat?" I asked seriously

Her face dropped "n-no"

I smiled again having obviously caught her off guard "good then you wouldn't get any sweets for the movie, let's go" I tugged her lightly to get her to follow

I got tickets for some kid movie she told me how badly she wanted to see it last night so I of course gave in we were about 20 minutes early so I walked us straight to the line at the snack bar

"What do you want?" I looked down and she was trying to fix her shorts again I grabbed her face making her look up at me "are they hurting you?"

"No" she whispered caught utterly by surprise

"Why are you messing with them then?"

"Because my fat-"

"Leave them be" I said sternly "I love how it's making your thighs look" I leaned closer to her ear "you 'fix' them again and you'll be sorry" I cooed softly "now what do you want?" I stood straight

She looked up at the menu board then turned her whole body to face me "icee pretty please" she wrapped her arms around me putting her face in my chest

No doubt she was trying to hide the blush in her cheeks

"Perfect manners" I praised petting her hair twisting a pig tail on my finger

I got to the front of the line and she was still buried in my chest "large coke icee and a large sweet tea" I leaned down "do you want anything else?" She shook her head no I chuckled "and a Mn'M" I added

"We gotta walk now" she finally came out from my chest she still had rosey cheeks I passed her her drink "let's walk around and see the other movie posters while we wait"

"Okay" she nodded taking my hand we started on the hall opposite to the one where our movie would be playing "do you want a sip?" She held up the straw to my lips

"No thank you Baby girl"

We chatted mindlessly we stopped in front of a poster I explained to her I loved this director but she wasn't answering I looked down she was staring off into a group of people

"Darlin?" She didn't face me I rounded her standing in front of her "hey you zoned out princess"

She looked up at me "I wanna go home"

I frowned "go home? Our movie starts in about 5 minutes why do you wanna go home?"

"Please" she asked her voice sounded strained

I nodded "okay" I squeezed her hand to comfort her "we can go" I stepped aside so I could let her walk

"Alexis! Wow long time no see" a man had made his way over to us while I had been standing in front of Alexis but she didn't answer she just tried to walk away

"Alexis come on no hard feelings huh?" He joked stepping back in front of her

I furrowed my eyebrows something is obviously wrong

"Aw babe don't be like that" he went to grab her

Babe?

I snatched Alexis away from him "you must be the ex I heard so much about" I stepped between them "what are you doing here?"

He laughed "oh a British dude" he huffed "pip pip cheerio and whatever the fuck else" he mocked a British accent

I cocked an eyebrow "are you a bloody fucking idiot?" I faked a laugh "sup bro you ready to get fuckin trashed?" I mocked an American accent

He didn't find that funny "do you have a problem?" He bucked up and considering he was a good 4 inches shorter than me it did in fact prove he was an idiot

"No we were just leaving" I grabbed Alexis pulling her with me

"You're with that fat bitch? Really? Fine have my sloppy seconds, and I hope you can deal with all her fucking whining you'd punch the bitch too"

I turned back "excuse me?" I laughed "I'm sorry I miss heard you, you said you punched my girlfriend?"

"Yeah and she fucking left me"

"Right" I opened my drink and poured it right over his head throwing the cup at his face then while I was at it grabbed Alexis's too dumping that on him as well as he wiped his face off "keep the fuck away from my girlfriend or the next puddle you'll be in is a puddle of your own blood you fuckin wanker"

I grabbed Alexis walking out with her

We got to the car and I pressed her against the passenger door my hands on either side of her "are you okay?" She had tears in her eyes

"Y-yeah"

"I'm so sorry Baby" I hugged her she gasped and shoved me in my chest I broke away "what?!" I asked looked down at myself she wrapped her arms around herself

"P-Please don't hug me" she whimpered

"Why?" Come to think of it... I don't think I've ever hugged her I've held her but it was always like after s*x or while we made out or something that's not a true hug

Even in line earlier that wasn't a hug she was just holding me I didn't hold her back I was playing with her hair

"I don't handle them well" she murmured

"But I want to hug you Baby girl I wanna have you in my arms and make you feel better" I cooed softly she shook her head no tears running down her face "okay well what would make you feel better?"

"I just wanna go home"

I nodded "okay baby I'll bring you home"
