The New Girl

Chapter 49 - Back to School, Harry.

Harry Styles.

iMessage To: Daisy:
"When's the next appointment?"

I was terrified to go with her, especially since Aurora and I have finally made up. I cannot have Daisy ruining this for me.

I said Daisy, specifically because this doesn't add up. I haven't slept with Daisy in so long. Come to think of it, I haven't slept with anyone in so long. So I don't understand why she's so positive the baby is mine, it doesn't make any sense.

iMessage from Daisy:
"In a few weeks, I'd like you to come with me. ;)"

I rolled my eyes and sighed. I'd have to wait a few more weeks, I don't know how I'm going to pull this off. I can barely handle Daisy just being herself, I'm not sure how I'm going to handle Daisy going through her pregnancy mood swings.

iMessage to Daisy:
"Why are you so sure it's mine?"

This has never happened to me, never! I've been sleeping around for a while, now, and I've never had an incident like this happen to me. It makes this even more unbelievable, especially because it's Daisy.

Daisy's manipulative ways have made it hard for me to believe this was her baby. If people find out at school- school.. Aurora is at school, along with Daisy.

"Fuck!" I shouted, running towards my car.

How stupid could I be?! She may not tell the whole school, but she could tell the one person that would get affected by it and that's Aurora.

iMessage to Aurora:
"My English teacher sent me an e-mail to go to school for some work, want to hang out after?"

I knew I shouldn't be lying to her, especially at a time like this but I couldn't exactly tell her why I, all of a sudden, decided to go to school.

Hey, I showed up to school because I didn't want Daisy to tell you she could possibly be pregnant with my child! Wanna have lunch?

I can't do that! It'll be a whole other argument and I really don't want to argue with Aurora, right now. I've got too much on my mind and I'm not ready to deal with more.

After parking my car and walking inside the building, I noticed people were staring at me a lot more than usual. I'm used to people watching me when I walk in, but they've never stared at me for this long. It's weird and uncomfortable.

It made me wonder if Daisy has already started talking to people about our little situations. No, that can't be right! Daisy's parents would kill her for embarrassing them like that. Not that getting pregnant at this age was an embarrassment to me or anything, but it is in her parents' eyes. You would think her parents felt nothing towards Daisy, especially because of how much of a bitch she is, but they actually care of the things she does. The reason being is her parents are well-known lawyers and do not want people to think they can't raise their own daughter properly. So she'll have to keep her mouth shut.

I guess they're all staring at me because of what happened with my mom. It doesn't surprise me, people around here can't seem to mind their own business. It's something that I've gotten used to, even though it shouldn't be that way.

"Harry, babe! You came!" Daisy's annoying voice rang through my ears.

I turned to look at her, an annoyed look plastered on my face. "I wasn't planning on-"

I was cut off by the sight of Aurora. Her long, beautiful, brown hair bouncing with every step she took. The brown eyes, I always get lost in, looking ahead of her, followed by that beautiful smile of hers. She was wearing her school uniform, but she still looked a hell of a lot more beautiful than anyone in this school. Even though I saw her off to school earlier, I feel like it's the first time I've seen her in a while.

She was walking behind Liam and Sabrina with Louis at her side. I know Louis is only looking out for her, but the sight of him being so close to her made me uneasy.

Louis was one of my best mates, but I've noticed he's been hanging around Aurora a lot. I know he probably isn't looking for anything with her, he was just comforting her after all the things I've said and done. I just feel bad that I'm the one that's causing all her pain and he gets to be the one to fix it.

A cold hand, suddenly, grabbed my chin and turned me to face her. "I'm over here, Harry. You should show some respect for the moth-"

I quickly covered her mouth, "Don't you dare do that, Daisy." I growled.

I could feel her mouth change into a smirk as she removed my hand, "What's the matter? Don't want anyone to know you're a future d-"

"Shut up, Daisy!" I snapped, causing a few people, who were in the same hallway as I was, to look my way.

I noticed Aurora's eyes look my way. I could see how worried she was of me and I was thankful for that. I looked at the other people that I didn't talk to and glared at them, "Mind your own, damn, business. Alright?!" I snapped, making everyone quickly look away and continue about their business.

"Are you really that angry that I'm... you know?" Daisy asked, wrapping her arms around my neck.

I could still see Aurora's brown eyes looking straight at me, through the corner of my eye. I didn't want her to think I'm doing anything, so I grabbed Daisy hands and put them on her side. "Daisy, I don't want to talk about this here, this is a private matter." I snapped, before walking towards my class.

I still wasn't sure how today was going to go, but, by the way everyone was looking at me, I can already tell it'll be full of pity from everyone in school. Yeah, I appreciate their condolences and such, but I didn't appreciate their pity.

"Mr. Styles! Good to see you're back!" My English teacher, Mrs. Daniels, exclaimed.

Glad I'm not a complete liar, I'm pretty sure Mrs. Daniels did send me an email. She's one of the nicest teachers here, all the others believe I'm nothing but trouble. Fortunately, Mrs. Daniels gives me the benefit of the doubt.

I nodded, "Good to be back, ma'am." I smiled, a fake smile.

The truth is, everything around here reminded me of my mother. It could be the most simplest thing, yet it made a huge impact on me. I still can't believe she's gone. I keep thinking I'm going to see her when I get home.

"Hi, Harry!" I girl's voice cheered.

I turned to look at the girl that greeted me and noticed three girls standing next to my desk. "Can I help you?"

It was then that I noticed they had flowers and baked goods with notes attached to them. I guess these are gifts for me?

"We're so sorry for your loss, we made you cookies and brownies." The girl smiled.

I haven't seen them before, at least not in my class. I never really pay attention to things, but I thought this was really thoughtful of them. They didn't have to do this for me, yet they did. Hopefully it was out of the goodness of their heart and not because they found out I'm the youngest millionaire in New York City.

I nodded and accepted the gifts, "Thanks girls, it means a lot." I smiled.

They excused themselves, before Mrs. Daniels began her lesson. Maybe Aurora and I could enjoy a nice lunch with these goods.
