Hi! My name's Fawn and I have a horrible stutter, it gets in the way of everything. I'm decently pretty so guys will try to talk to me but I get nervous and my stutter come out, it's horrible! I'm not ugly but I'm not gorgeous either, so when a guy comes up to me or trys to talk to me I have to take advantage of it cause I might not get the chance again. I have my Best friend Megan and she's been by my side since day one. We are both the same amount of prettyness and we don't tell each other that one of us if prettier than the other because that's just rude. Sometimes I'll feel like the prettiest girl in the world but it always has to get ruined by him. Coby. At lunch when I pass by he'll always call me ugly or say ew and it doesn't really get to me but no one likes to hear that you know. We dated once and we we're never really mean to each other after that but he's changed into this player and I hate it, and trust me I don't like him at all he's horrible and Megan agrees with that alot but sometimes words do hurt you know. I don't really have friends in my classes so I just sit there by myself in my seat in the morning with my earbuds in while either sitting there staring at the wall or looking through my phone. The bell rings and it's time for electives and a boy with long brown curly locks and green eyes and tattoos comes in and I'm still sitting at my seat getting ready to go. He sets his stuff down beside me and he taps my shoulder and I get a good look at him. God he's gorgeous. And he says "hi um can you help me to where my electives are?" HE'S BRITISH?! I smile and nod not wanting to speak to reveal my stutter. My stutter only comes out when I'm nervous or really uncomfortable or lying. I take his schedule and I look and he has the same electives as me, I motion for him to follow me and he does but once we are in the hallways he taps my shoulder again and says "um I'm sorry if this comes off rude but why don't you talk" I sigh and take out my phone and type in my notes 'i don't want you to hear my horrible stutter' and show it to him and he weakly smiled and said "love you don't need to be afraid to talk to me I won't judge you, I promise" I hesitantly nod and he says "okay let's start hi I'm Harry Styles nice to meet you and you are?" I laugh a little bit and he smiles and I say "my n-name's f-fawn" he smiles wider and says "see babe that wasn't so hard was it?" The little names he uses makes my heart skip a beat. I look at him and say "i-i guess n-not" I look down and he says "what's wrong?" I let a tear slip out, the reason I'm crying is because all guys do this. They pretend they don't care and then they leave me and it's always the same reason 'her stutter is horrible and annoying' "n-nothing I'm f-fine" he stops me and the halls were empty so it's just us two. "Love you aren't fine so please tell me what's wrong?" I take a deep breath and say "I k-know you h-hate my s-stutter b-but you are p-pretending l-like you d-dont care b-but you d-do" he moves his hand to my arm and I continue "it h-happens every t-time, i-ill e-either be friends w-with a guy or i-i'll be d-dating a g-guy and they all l-leave d-do to the s-same r-reason" he rubs my arm and says "what's the reason love" I take another deep breath and I say "t-they a-all s-say 'h-her stutter is h-horrible and a-annoying" I let another tear slip and he kisses it away and I get shocked and he says "I'll never leave you..Ever" I look up at him "p-promise?" He nods "promise" I smile and we walk to class together and I start to calm down a little more and I'm not that nervous. We arrive at class in choir and we have to see her, ugh. I hate our teacher so much. I go sit in my seat and Harry sits next to me and I say "h-harry you k-know you are g-gonna have to sit in t-the boys section r-right" his eyes get scared and he says "fawn I don't know anybody it'll be horrible" I laugh lightly and say "Harry I promise i-itll be okay, h-how about t-this. You can g-go ask if m-me and Megan can sit down o-on the bottom row and s-sit next to you b-by the guy section s-so we will o-only be a minor c-chair space a-apart" he smiled and nodded and Megan said "oh who's that hottie" I smile and say "that's Harry, he from England and he's the sweetest person ever" she giggled "you guys are so cute together" I smile and say "thank you" Harry comes back with a smile on his face and says "she said we could" I smile and say "o-okay" we go to our seats and his hand goes over top of mine and I look down at it and look at him and he says "you know how you have a stutter?" I nod and he said "well I have bad anxiety and I'm freaking out right now..And you make me feel safe Fawn" I lightly smile and says "it's o-okay Harry i-im r-right here" I took our hands and intertwined them and he smiles and whispers "thank you" I smile and say "no problem" maybe Harry isn't all that different
