Harry: (immediately tenses).
Zayn: (comforting) Hey Haz... you'll be fine... Just loosen up (rubs his shoulders soothingly).
Harry: (nods; gets on stage).
(Power: Fire; range = HIGH)
Mr.Winston: Get on with it!
Harry: (eyes the crowd).
Zayn: (gives him a reassuring smile).
Harry: (acknowledges Zayn; but then his eyes fall on a certain lad).
Louis: (sees Harry looking at him; continues to stare).
Harry: (feels himself growing angry for some reason; eyes closed; suddenly let's out a groan; arches back; flaming up; involuntarily strikes in Louis' direction)
He hears students gasping and is immediately worried.
Oh my God, what did I do?
Harry: (slowly opens his eyes).
Mr.Winston: (grits through his teeth) Harryyy Stylesss...
Harry: (looks at a wide eyed Louis, who is however not roasted alive).
Mr.Winston: (hisses) You are staying after this session...
Harry: (realises what he had done; he had striked
Mr.Winston who was in the way, not Louis. Mr.Winston ducked in time escaping but you can't say much for his hair which was half burnt. He couldn't help the grin that threatened to form).
Mr.Winston: (snarls) Oh you think this is funny?
Niall: (bursts out laughing).
All the students join seeming to find the situation rather funny.
Mr.Winston: (glares at everyone; then points his finger at Harry) I'll get you for this. (mutters) Orphan.
Harry: (hears that; breath hitches; feels the rage pooling in his stomach rising to his head; sees the students, still laughing; lets out a growl as his hands instantly flame up).
Students, now scared, stop laughing abruptly...
Harry: (smirks, feeling satisfied; his eyes meet with another person).
Louis: (looks rather unfazed)
Harry: (glares at him; returns back to his seat).
Zayn: Harry...
Harry: (Raises his hand for him to shut up; keeps his head down).
Liam: (reassuringly) We'll discuss this later Zee.
Niall: (quite fazed) Yep... I agree.
Mr.Winston: Louis Tomlinson (looks at Louis; smirks; already in bad mood from the event earlier).
Louis: (slowly gets up and makes his way to the stage).
Harry: (immediately looks at him).
Mr.Winston: (irritated) Are you going to start or are you waiting for some kind of special request?
Louis: (quietly) I don't wanna show you my power...
Mr.Winston: (growls) What?
Louis: (sighs) It's better that way.
Mr.Winston: (mocking) Wait do you even have powers? (smirks) Or are you just a pathetic wimp?
Louis: (sighs).
Mr.Winston: I'm gonna make sure your arse gets an F. Meet me after this session.
(Smirks) Lewis...
Louis: (decides against making a sassy remark; walks back to his seat).
Niall: (flabbergasted) Well that was.... weird.
Zayn: (agreeing) Most assuredly.
Niall: What's with this school and weird people?
Liam: But do you think he has powers?
Zayn: (scoffs) Well obviously. Otherwise he wouldn't be here.
Niall: Maybe he's a double weak... you know..
Zayn: Yeah... Hey Haz, are you alright?
Harry: (in a trance) Uh... What?
Niall: (shakes his head smiling) You're such a loser.
Harry: (furrows his eyebrows; confused).
Zayn: (hits Nialls arm shooting him a look; turns to Harry; concerned) Hey? are you alright? You seem... Deep in thought...
Harry: (lies; still pretty dazed by all the incidents) Yeah? Well no, I'm fine...
Liam: (comforting) Hey don't worry about what happened with Winston earlier. You were actually great... (mutters) Way better than me.
Niall: He's a dick and he deserved it. But Haz (softens)
What happened really? You seemed to lose control...(raises an eyebrow) Were you angry at something?
Harry: (sighs) I just...ugh I don't really know what happened.
Liam: (scoffs) Well something happened and you nearly killed someone.
Harry: (visibly stiffens).
Zayn: (Shoots Liam a glare) It was an accident.
Niall: (trying to make light of the situation) And, we had a great laugh. You should have seen his horror (laughs).
Harry: (slowly relaxes; chuckles) Well I could get used to that look on his face.
Liam: (joins smiling) Yeah me too...
Niall: Me three!!
Zayn: The whole fuckin school if I'm honest... (shakes his head) maybe except Tim.
Harry: Hmm... (thinks) Yeah.
Mr.Winston: Alright, your tests are over for the month.
You can leave now.
Niall: (relieved) Come on... chop chop.
Harry: (groans) I'm supposed to stay.
Niall: The door is right there. Let's run for it (grabs Harry's hand).
Liam: Do you hear yourself?
(Shakes his head) You will only increase the punishment.
Harry: (sighs knowing it's true) Bye guys. See you at lunch.
All three bid farewell.
Mr.Winston: Well well if it isn't my favourite two (grins evily).
Harry: (Glances at Louis).
Louis: (Keeps his head down).
Mr.Winston: If you weren't my students I'd probably crush you with my hands (motions with fist) but unfortunately I can't use my powers... (power: super strength) So...I suggest you stay an extra hour after school and train to control your powers.
Harry: (groans) No way!
Mr.Winston: (spits) Do you think you have an option hun? It's not like you have other things to do anyway.
Harry: I do have other things to do.
Mr.Winston: Like what? Fucking?
Harry: (huffs; crosses his arms annoyed).
Mr.Winston: Fine... I'll reconsider. Stay two hours after school.
Harry: What!? (Shouts) It's not fair!
Mr.Winston: (growls) Not another word! Be here from tomorrow.. Both of you... Dismissed (waves them off).
Louis: Wow... Way to go (rolls his eyes).
Harry: (snarls) What was that?
Louis: (shrugs).
Harry: (pins Louis against a wall; hisses) Listen. Do not come in my way. Do you understand? Or I will make you wish you were never here.
Louis: (stares into Harry's eyes; doesn't respond).
Harry: (quickly becomes conscious; loosens his grip) You are so arrogant.
Louis: (incredulous) I'm arrogant?
Harry: (starts walking; to himself) You are so... so... arrogant.
Louis: (scoffs) I'm not the one who almost burned someone and didn't apologize.
Harry: (shakes his head) Mr.Winston and I go way back.
Louis: (stops Harry with an arm to his shoulder) I know you were aiming at me.
Harry: (looks away, shrugs Louis' hand off) Well don't flatter yourself... I wasn't aiming. I just... lost it.
Louis: And I almost lost my life. No biggie.
Harry: (rolls his eyes) Drama queen. You could have used your powers. (Stops; sardonic) Oh wait, you don't have any.
Louis: (looks down; mumbles) I do have powers. I just don't like using them.
Harry: Its September.
Louis: (looks at him confused) Wha-
Harry: (deadpans) You're wearing leather gloves. (Starts walking) Do you have any weird disease or are you just plain stupid?
Louis: (scratching his head) Um...
Camille: (walks upto them; flirtatious) Hey Harry!
Harry: (smiles) Hiya babe...
Cam: Do you wanna crash in tonight? (Whispers seductively) I'm home alone. I could really use some company.
Louis: (coughs awkwardly).
Harry: Sure (winks).
Cam: (grins) See ya.
Louis: (awkward) Well...
Harry: (Glares) Remember what I said. (Stern) Don't come in my way.
Louis: (rolls his eyes; leaves).
In class:
Harry: (sits in the last row)
Luke: Hey Loser!
Harry: (composed) Your insults are as pathetic as your face.
Luke: (glares) You think you're so good, don't you?
Harry: (scoffs) I know I am. I could take you in seconds.
Luke: (snorts) In your dreams.
Harry: (turns to look at him) Did you forget the time you did this same mistake? You challenged us and your whole group got their asses kicked.
Luke: (huffs defeated).
Harry: (turns around smugly).
Luke: (leans forward) Did you hear about the new kid?
Harry: Saw him (shrugs).
Luke: Got a big mouth for one who has no powers. Actually I thought he's a double strong by the way he spoke to Mr.Winston.
Harry: (uninterested) Hmm.. I don't know.
Luke: (sighs; sits back) Well hell awaits him at lunch.
Harry: (turns around; eyebrows furrowed) What d'you mean?
Luke: (shrugs) I heard Tim and his mates talking.
Harry: (that's not good).
In the hallway:
Niall: (whiny) I'm starving
Liam: (huffs) When are you not?
Niall: Hey... don't blame me for my rapid metabolism.
Liam: (rolls his eyes; spots Zayn) Hey!
Zayn: (walking towards them) Hey guys... Where's- (squints) Is that?
Niall: (sees where he's looking) Yep...
Harry: (has his back against a locker, snogging the girl in his chest).
Niall: Hey isn't that...
Liam: (realising) Tim's... (shouts in disbelief) girlfriend!!
The girl pulls away wrecked and breathless, gives Harry a dopey smile and walk off.
Harry: (smirks at her; spots Liam and Niall and walks upto them; lips swollen; hair messy) Hey mates!
Liam: (Anguished) Are you out of your mind?
Harry: (confused) Wha-
Liam: (furious) Why on earth were you sucking Tim's girlfriend's face off?
Harry: (raises an eyebrow) That's Tim's girlfriend? I don't know, she just threw herself at me (shrugs).
Liam: (in disbelief) And you just kissed her back? Oh God.
Niall: (grins) You're just jealous that young Haz here can get anyone.
Liam: (rolls his eyes) No. I'm just worried this will start off a fight.
Niall: Yeah right.
Harry: (looks around) Where's Zayn?
Liam: He... left I think... (turns around to see) Come on let's go...
In their table:
Harry: (cheerful) Hey Zee!
Zayn: Hey...
Harry: (furrows his eyebrows) Are you ok?
Zayn: (sighs) Yeah... I just, don't feel well.
Tim: (stomps to their table; clenching his fists; hisses) Styles....
♥️♥️♥️
(A/N):
So... do you think Liam is jealous of Harry?
