"Two things only a man cannot hide, that he is drunk and that he is inlove." Antiphanes

I looked at my own reflection on the mirror. Did I like what I saw ? Yes. I looked at a girl with a petite body, her blonde hair in a bun and red lipstick on her lips, her hazel brown eyes were staring right back at her with pride and curiosity. I had never met any guy's parents well this wasn't a big deal considering I wasn't dating Harry Norman was i planning on dating him.
It was almost seven and I was running out of time so I straightened my black dress that curved my body in all the right places leaving the right amount of cleavage and showing off my tanned legs.
"Oh my God-" i yelped. "Zayn don't creep on me like that." I placed my hand on my chest.
"Do I know this friend of yours ?" He asked not minding my previous rant.
"Well no it doesn't matter." I shrugged making my way downstairs.
"It does and you are going to tell me." He stood in front of me closing my way.
"It don't have time for this, Zayn." I said with a bored expression.
"Well I have all the time in the world infact you are not going, if I don't know this dimweed."
"It's Harry now get out of my way." I rolled my eyes.
"What ? you mean Harry is in another Harry right definitely not Harry Styles ?" He chuckled.
"What ? you think I'm too lame to hang out with your friends ?" I asked him with a solemn expression.
"I didn't say that. Don't put s**t in my mouth." He gritted his teeth.
"Okay." I made my way downstairs where my parents were preparing dinner together, oh right today was Lasagne Tuesdays. I missed that but I couldn't afford to miss this.
"Oh darling you look beautiful..." My father smiled while chopping the onions. "Too bad you are going to miss this awesome meal and a movie." He said in a playful tone.
"Ah darn it that sucks dad." I faked being hurt.
"So you took my advise huh ?" My mom grinned with her pink apron on. She still had it ? It has been there since I was eight.
"You could say that." I smiled.
"You look beautiful Zaneh." My mom said giving me a peck on the cheek. I was never good at receiving compliments so I just blushed and brushed it off.
"What ? Mom do you know who she is going out with ?" Zayn huffed. "With Harry, Harry the player, the frat boy, the womanizer, the-"
"Zayn honey calm down. Harry seems like a good young man." My mom cooed.
"Dad, you have to do something tell her she is not going anywhere in that skimpy dress."
"Zayn don't say that to your sister." My dad defended. I guess the old Zayn was back and here to stay, i knew his nice ways wouldn't last but it sure as heaven felt good annoying him and making him this aggravated.
"Mom, Dad...this is a huge mistake." Zayn sighed when they didn't listen to him.
"I'm not going out with him, his stepmom invited me to dinner and I couldn't say no." I explained and parents nodded with understanding.
"You still like him, don't you ?" Zayn furrowed his eyebrows, studying my reactions.
"What's wrong with your sister having a good old crush on a boy." My mom added.
"That's the thing, Harry is no boy. Harry is a man and he knows alot of thing that she doesn't know about. She is f*****g vulnerable..." He said using his hands to explain honestly I wanted to laugh but I kept it in. It's true Harry is a man and he has showed me all the manly sides of him that are just amazing. Rough and roar... my subconscious alerted making me remember the flight.
"Zaneh will be fine, she is responsible. You have always been the rebellious twin." My dad added.
I didn't realise the conversation was still ongoing because I had zoned out. I received a text from Harry that he was outside.
"My ride is here, i will be back in an hour or two." I rushed to the door, as I did so I heard a faint.
"Have fun darling." probably my mom.
"I will kill that s**t face." Zayn ofcause.
"But not too much fun." Definitely my dad.
I rushed to Harry's sleek car. He looked at me with blazing eyes, i realised he was still in his black jeans. He didn't even dress up, now I felt stupid.
"You look Uhm beautiful." I said before cursing under his breath making me grin.
"Uhm Thanks but now I feel overdressed." I sighed.
"No no, Vera probably dressed up well." He added turning on the ignition.
"Another thing, Don't visit Zayn for a while ?" I shifted in my seat.
"Why ?" He asked.
"I told him about this and he went nuts." I said smiling at the snapchat Angie sent me a few minutes ago. "But it doesn't matter."
"It doesn't ?" He questioned.
"Uh yes. This is just us fooling around nothing serious." I shrugged.
There was silence before he spoke up again.
"Zaneh ?" I turned to look at him, he looked so handsome and his jawline just a beautiful scenery, his eyes fixated on the road.
"Yes ?"
"It's highschool.." My heart skipped a beat a the mention of that word 'Highschool' .
"Did you really like me ?" He asked and suddenly I realized the car had came to a halt and he was staring directly at me. The house or rather mansion in front of us was breathtaking, i always knew Harry came from a well off family but I didn't think it was this well off.
"Why are you asking me that now ?" I kept my cool but my insides were starting to feel weird reminiscing all those horrible moments.
*flashback*
"Zaneh f*****g likes you bro ? how do you feel about that ? Don't commit suicide just yet." Liam asked Harry in the school corridor loud enough for everyone to hear. I felt sick but I kept walking to my locker so I could hide my face in it.
"Don't tell us you have grown to like Zayn's gross sister ?" Louis cringed.
"f**k no, I wouldn't stoop that low." Harry said in a nonchalant tone.
"Better not." Niall smirked.
"Yeah you better not." Zayn added in a angry tone.
Suddenly Harry's girlfriend Sofia came along and as soon as i closed my locker she kissed Harry right in front of me.
"Hey Zaneh ?" She called grabbing everyone's attention. "I just wanted to know does Harry kiss better in your dreams just as good as he kisses me in real life ?" She smirked, i felt my tears wailing up so I ran to the bathroom when everyone started laughing.
*End of Flashback*
"I just thought-" He snapped me out of my daze.
"Look Harry." I laid my hand on top of his sending shots of electricity between us and we both felt it but I ignored it probably s****l tension. "I know how awkward highschool was. I like what we have right now, it's fun nothing serious to it. Trust me I'm not expecting you to ask me out on a date, shower me with gifts, make me your valentine, call me your girlfriend whatever you are expected to do in a relationship. I don't want that and I'm definitely not expecting it from you." I shrugged.
"Besides you can date whomever you want, i mean I'm not one to pry on your love life." I added.
He looked at me thoughtfully as I said these things. "So what do we call this ?" He asked in dismay.
"I don't know." I paused. "What do you call it ? f**k buddies or friends with benefits..." He smiled.
"No that's just off." I muttered and he smiled.
"How about your best friend's sister ?" I grinned and his smile immediately faltered.
"My best friend's sister ?" He looked at me in disbelief.
"I don't know Harry. I'm not experienced at such things, i mean you are the fuckboy so you would know." I gave an innocent shrug but could feel him burning holes through me.
"Besides I don't go around having s****l relationships with anyone that's your expertise." I added and he looked angry, wasn't that the truth.
"We should probably get in." I opened the door leaving him stunned or rather stupefied. What was he expecting ? The s*x is great that's the only part of the deal I want nothing else.
