Excessive (Harry Styles Fanfiction)

Chapter 24.

His smirk widened on his face as his eyebrows rose. He licked his lips and let his teeth bit down on his tongue.  "Are you concerned for me, Arabella?" he asked making my jaw completely drop. That's not what I meant! He let out a small laugh before shaking his head. "Don't worry Ara, I'm concerned about you too" he said letting puffs of laughter fall from his lips.

"I didn't mean it like that" I said watching him rise from the seat and grab his plate. He walked over to the sink and placed the plate in it for me to clean later. When I looked back at his face, I noticed his body turned to mine while that eyebrow of his was raised and his hand was on the counter, dangerously close to my body.

"Well what did you mean" he said as that smug grin was beginning to form on his face. I hate that look. He looks so cocky and full of himself and even though he is I hate when he is obnoxious about it. "If you didn't mean it like that, then what other way am I supposed to interpret that" he says taking a small step closer.

"I was just telling you" I said completely aware of the red painted across my cheeks. Never in my life have I ever been so embarrassed about anything, but not with Harry. Every little thing that I can be called out on, I am. "The real question here, would be that you are concerned for me?" I asked trying to embarrass him like he does to me, but it didn't faze him.

"Yes Ara, I am concerned for you" he said shrugging, not even a hint of embarrassment was laced into his confession. He reached across the counter to grab the abandoned beer that started this whole conversation. He popped the cap of the bottle and threw it into the garbage before taking a sip. I watched the satisfaction drown into his facial features as his beloved beer was in his hand.

"Why?" I asked making his smirk begin to fade. He looked at me for a moment before sitting his beer on top of the expensive counter. His body shuffled over to stand in front of mine. My breath caught in the back of my throat as I was cornered between his muscular chest and the counter once again.

"You do not realize how important you are to me" he said making my heart begin to pound mercilessly in my chest. He smirked slightly and looked up at the ceiling before his gaze lowered back down to my shock state. My jaw had dropped and my breathing was irregular.

"Y-You like m-me?" I asked shocked. His lips had turned up into a laugh. He was laughing, truly laughing to the point where a couple tears were threatening to fall from his eyes. My eyebrows furrowed in confusion. What was so funny? I asked a very simple question. There was nothing funny about it at all.

"I thought you were a smart girl. You are feisty and speak very well, but my accusations of your intelligence have been diminished" he said making my eyebrows furrow in confusion. "No Arabella I don't like you, the mere sight of you sickens me. But you are the only person who can help me in my plan" he said making my stomach drop. Embarrassment flushed across my face at his harsh confession.

"If you hate me so much, then why don't you just get rid of me when this plan is over" I said making him emit a growl from the back of his throat. He pushed his feet an inch away from me, giving me enough breathing space for the moment. He sighed and looked down at me.  

"That is exactly what I am doing Arabella, but the plan has barely started" he said making me fight the urge to roll my eyes. He shook his head at me and licked his lips. "The sooner the other end of my plan decides to cooperate, I will be able to end it and you will be free" he said with an added smirk.

"Who are the other people? What is your plan?" I asked making him smirk and shake his head. His arm reached out to grab the bottle of beer sitting on the counter. He smugly took a large sip and licked the excess liquid from his lips. A content smirk settled across his lips as his favorite alcoholic drink slid down his throat.

"I would never tell you Arabella, not for all the money I have. It would be too much added stress from you. That is the last thing I need especially considering all the stress you already give me. " he laughed and raked his fingers through his tangled curls. "You should know this by now" he reminded with a mocking tone.

"Well, as of now I have no place staying in this room if you will be slapping my feelings around like this" I said making him shrug and raise a single eyebrow. My head shook as I squeezed myself out from his broad structure and the counter top. As I was walking out of the kitchen, his deep voice was heard from behind me.

"Arabella, we are going out tonight for the first time. We will go over the rules of our outings later but I thought I would let you know now. " he said making me roll my eyes with my back turned to him at his failure to tell me earlier. "Dress appropriately" he taunted as I walked out of the kitchen.
