My Babysitter: Harry Styles (harry styles fanfic)

Chapter 3: protecting your jar of hearts

Carter awoke slowly that morning, oblivious to what was surrounding her. She adjusted her eyes to the bright light and gazed around the room. She hopped out of bed and strolled into her en suite bathroom, cleaning her hands, face and teeth thoroughly.

Harry hadn't caused her much damage last night so there was no need for make-up.

"Carter! Breakfast is ready!" Zayn called from downstairs.

"Two minutes!" she answered, running out of the toilet and quickly changing into her clothes.

She scampered down the stairs in a hurry, knowing that she was already late for school.

"Morning boys." She chirped.

Zayn pulled her onto his lap and kissed her cheek.

"How are you feeling Carter?" Louis asked.

"Tired, you?" Carter replied, a smile playing on her lips for the first time since Harry came last night.

"The same. Too bad you have to go to school!" Louis teased, unaware of how unlucky Carter really was.

"Well you've got to go to college!" she quarrelled.

"Yes, but in college, all I do is act in plays and what not. Much better then Maths, don't you think?" Louis taunted.

Carter sulked and sank back in her seat.

Liam handed Carter her breakfast.

"Thanks Li Li!" she winked.

She knew that Liam hated that nickname.

He stuck his tongue out at her and left the room.

Niall appeared into the kitchen in his boxers. This had no affect on Carter whatsoever as the boys hardly ever wear clothes.

"CARTER! YOU'RE GOING TO BE LATE!!!" Liam yelled from upstairs.

Carter sighed and stood up, kissing each of the boys on the cheek before leaving.

She walked to school, dragging her feet along the ground as she knew Harry would be there early, waiting for her. She crossed the main street and down a little path until she reached school.

And there Harry was. Waiting for her at the gate...

She put her hood over her head and bowed her head down, in hope that he wouldn't recognise her. Not like that was going to happen.

"Oi! Carter!" his voice sent shivers up and down Carter's spine.

She ignored him and kept walking, hoping that he would leave her alone. That didn't happen either.

He rugby-tackled her up against the wall, an excruciating pain rising up her back. She whimpered in pain as she flopped to the floor. He picked her back up and shoved her against the wall once more, choking her as her legs dangled off the floor.

"Why didn't you answer me when I called you?!" he roared in her face.

"I-I-I-I-I didn't hear you." She stuttered, not keeping eye contact.

"LIES!" he shouted, slamming her against the wall once more.

"I-I-I'm sorry Harry." She spoke shakily.

"Oh you will be." He smirked.

The bell rang and Harry leaned in closer to Carter.

"See you in P.E, Carter..." he whispered as Carter trembled with fear.

He let go of her and she fell to the ground. She picked herself up quickly and scurried into class.

She didn't have her books, as Harry had stopped her from getting to her locker before school.
