Read Story: SEASON 1 EPISODE 29

Harry

I hadn’t seen Rosie in such a broken state like that before, and what pains me more is that I’m the cause of her sadness. I’ve become this person i hardly recognise anymore, I’m a monster.

I want Rosie to understand I do things only for her, no one else. She is the beautiful light in my dark world. I never wanted her to see me like that, or to scare her away…but I did.

The truth is I was jealous.

Jealous of Max, he has her and I don’t. The more I try the more she is slipping from my grip. Maybe I need to give her some space.

She deserves someone who would make her laugh every second of the day and hold her whenever sadness overtakes her.

At one point I thought that guy could be me, however I was completely wrong.

I scared her, and that’s the worst thing a man could do to someone they love.

Rosie

I’ve realised that I was too dependant on Harry and look where that got me.

He nearly hit Max! He is dangerous and I wasn’t aware of it until now.

Sure he could be a nice guy when he wants to be, and he did chose to stay and look after me… but that’s besides the point, he is not who I thought he was.

He expelled my best friend for f*cks sake!

How am I ever going to forgive him?

• next day-

I don’t think it will be that difficult to ignore Harry all day, I only have to see him for an hour, how bad can it be?

I walk into the English room and I suddenly feel empty.

I remember the first day he arrived, how every girl was whispering about his handsome looks and how much they wanted to f*CK him. It made me laugh at the fact how I wanted nothing to do with him at that point until his meaningless touch made my knees weak.

However when he had caught me smoking a joint in the carpark, I thought I was done for but he gave me a chance and that’s where it all started…our unexpected relationship. I don’t even know if you could call it that since nothing was ever official.

Maybe this is as hard for Harry as it is for me, since he did seem like he cared for me, even though he has crazy ways of showing it.

A few minutes later Harry finally came through the door , ready to teach. I know I said I don’t want anything to do with him anymore but his voice is practically penetrating my ears, what do you expect me to do? Go deaf in his presence?

I look at him every now and again, but he does not notice me. Is he purposely ignoring me? Oh how badly I want his gorgeous eyes to bore into mine until I am hypnotized by his beauty. Is that really too much to ask for?

Harry just look at me! I shout in my head hoping that somehow he could hear my thoughts,just this once.

Before I know it, class has ended and I have officially became delusion, in the space of an hour. I swear he is playing mind games with me. Well Harry sucks for you because- well actually sucks for me because my best friend isn’t here and I literally have no one!

Thanks a lot Harry…

Harry

If only Rosie know what I truly felt about her then maybe I wouldn’t have had to ignore her the whole lesson. Even though I sensed her beautiful eyes looking my way, I couldn’t find the strength to drown in them for the hundredth time.

Throughout the day I saw her by herself, it hurt me to know that I did that to her, I took away her best friend and now she is all alone.

I have an idea and it’s not exactly beneficial for me since it’s all about making Rosie happy even if it means raising hell.

I need to tell Rosie so she can hopefully forgive me.
