{Diane}

I stared expectantly at Harry, praying he says something, and not just anything, something positive, but my prayer was useless as he just sat there, staring blankly at me without saying a single word.

"Harry" I called softly and blinked gently. "Won't you say something?"

He still stared coldly, like he was a vampire.

"Say something, Harry!" I was tempted to yell at him as I was getting impatient and frustrated.

Harry raked his fingers through his hair and blew out his cheeks before getting up from his seat.

What?

"Harry, wha....wha..." I stammered, blinking repeatedly, but he turned his back to me like I wasn't even talking. "Wait, are you leaving?" I asked, careful about the volume of my voice since we were in the cafeteria.

Harry was walking away from me without saying a word about my request.

That....is the guy I wanna date? 

Wow. What a dick.

I placed my elbows on the table and held my head in my hands, feeling dejected.

It is either my dad sees a sign that I am in a relationship with Harry, or he forces me to be in a relationship with someone of his choice, a real relationship, and I won't forget to mention that Julia would laugh so loud at me.

Harry Michaelson is still the guy I think I need here, but unfortunately, he is a cold asshole that does not care about other people's feelings.

****

"Is your brother always cold to everyone, everyday and everytime?" I asked Harley, Harry's triplet sister who grinned, taking my question lightly, but I was actually being serious.

"You are talking about Harry here, right?" She asked, amused.

I scoffed mentally. Who else would I be talking about if not Harry.

"Yes, I am talking about Harry. Does he really hate everyone?" I questioned, raising my right hand to demonstrate.

Harley shrugged casually "He acts like he hates everyone but—" She paused and frowned "Wait, what happened between you guys?"

"Nothing!" I squeaked the word....unintentionally. "Absolutely nothing!" My voice remained squeaky "Your brother is just being....well, he is being Harry!"

He is being 'Harry' by walking out on me, something guys don't do to me.

That crazy shithead. I just want to hit something on his head right now.

I recalled how composed and cold he had been as he listened to me talk about how I blurted his name in the dining room.

'Diane, you really embarrassed yourself in front of the GREAT Harry Michaelson' My subconscious said, disappointed.

Shit. Fuck me.

"I saw you guys talking at the cafeteria" Harley mentioned, raising her brows.

I twisted my mouth downwards and I was sure I looked really ridiculous doing the twisting thing. "You saw us talking"

Harley chuckled for a second "Yes"

Of course. "And you saw him walk out on me"

She pouted sympathetically "Yes"

"Good"

No, bad. Very bad.

She gave me a small smile before turning her attention away when someone had called her name from behind.

I tapped my pen on the desk, waiting for the teacher to appear in the class, but guess who appeared?

Yeah, it's Harry Michaelson. The guy who walked off because I asked him to be my boyfriend.

I hate him.

I hated him before, but I hate him more now. It sucked that I do have classes with him.

Part of me expected him to do something, maybe give me a smirk, a meaningful stare or something, but he didn't. His focus was elsewhere.

I think really need to hit something on his head, like why would he even act like I didn't exist?

Why?!

I turned to Harley who now had her face on her book "Harley, does your brother has a girlfriend?" I suddenly asked without a pause or a blink.

She looked up at me "My brother Henry?" She asked slowly.

"Nope" I pressed my mouth. "Harry" I growled.

Harley stared at me weirdly before she laughed hysterically, making me furrow my brows in annoyance. I was being serious about a question and she laughed at it.

"Harry and girlfriend?" Harley faced me squarely, her face bright from the laughter. "He is like a celebrity, you know, popular and all that"

I almost rolled my eyes. "I know" I admitted. 

"Yet there's never been news about him being at least a bit interested in someone, not to mention be in a relationship with someone" She explained and I nodded in agreement.

"But what if he's just keeping his love life very private?" I asked, slightly narrowing my eyes.

Harley sighed and pointed straight to the left "Look at him" I rotated my head to the direction her finger was pointing at. I saw that Harry had taken the seat that wasn't too far from mine, staring into space "Does he look like someone who has a love life to keep private?"

True. That cold expression alone could make girls think he is an upcoming murderer.

Well, I am not one of the girls scared of him....I think.

"You're right, Harley" I said to her, nodding and she smiled at me then turned to her book again.

I think the girl has a great connection with books.

My eyes trailed to Harry's seat and I noticed there was an empty seat beside him, so I did a stupid thing that could lead to more embarrassment.

I stood up from my seat and took the empty seat beside him. I caught his masculine scent quickly but I ignored it as soon as he shifted in his seat to rotate himself to the side.

"You little prick!" I started and he quirked one of his perfect brows. "You know you could have just said something instead of walking away like you did"

"What did you want me to do? Stay and agree to be your boyfriend right away?" He asked in a hushed voice.

"Yes! Fuck yes!" I exclaimed with rising rage, getting everyone's attention for a second but I quickly passed a sweet smile that made them look away then I continued with Harry. "You could have said something or at least done something!"

"I did something, I walked away!" He made a point, spreading palms.

"You little piece of shit, you think walking away is the best thing to do? I fucking hate you!" I cursed him under my breath.

He opened his mouth to say something back to me but the teacher's voice, apologising for coming late, stopped him.

I quickly went back to my previous seat which was beside Harley, but I still had Harry on my mind.

I wondered what he was going to say to me if the teacher had not entered the class.

I glanced at him, and my eyes locked onto his blue ones. What I planned to be a glance, turned out to be a hard eye contact competition which I lost to him when I couldn't hold his cold look any longer. 

Will Harry still help me?

Or am I gonna end up dating Thane?

My question got answered when classes were over.

As I walked to the parking lot, I became conscious of someone's presence beside me.

The perfume was familiar and when I glanced sideways, I understood why I the scent was familiar. Harry.

"What do you want?" I asked, my voice unfriendly. I was still mad at him for what he did at the cafe.

"I will be your boyfriend" He said in a casual tone.

What?

I stopped on my track and whipped my head to him, my eyes widened "What did you say?"

"I am not repeating my words" He stated without looking at me.

See why I hate him?

I moved my legs, trying to match with his pace. "You will really be my boyfriend?" I asked carefully.

"Yes, I will" He answered calmly.

Yesssss!!!!

Oh my God, yessss!!!

"But—" He suddenly interrupted my mental dance with his hard voice "Under some conditions" He said and inserted his hands into the pockets of his pants. "My conditions" He added just as we reached the parking lot.

"Your conditions?" I breathed nervously.

He peered down at me. "Yes, love, my conditions"

I tensed. There are conditions. "Let's go to your place then" I suggested.

His house was the only place I could think of to have a discussion without being scared of any eavesdropper.

"I will tell my driver to leave so I can ride with you to your place" I said without a pause, taking in Harry's dark expression with my gaze.

"My place" His voice dropped low and deeper "It's just gonna be me and you in the house"

I shook my head furiously at him. "Don't get stupid ideas, I just want to talk" I said sternly.

He smirked, his eyes gleaming with that danger that usually says 'run, Diane'. There is no way I'm running from danger when I'm in trouble already.

    {Harry}It was hard to believe there would be a day Diane would be asking me to be her boyfriend, and what was more unbelievable was that I would be saying yes to her request, though I have my reasons for agreeing to such crazy and strange request. "Let's go now" She said with her soft voice, already in front of me. I glanced casually at the SUV car moving off the school ground. "You were so quick in sending away your bulky bodyguard" I remarked. "My driver" She corrected with a glare "And he is not all that bulky, okay?" I didn't say anything to that. "So where's your car?" She asked, glancing around. "My car is not here" I replied easily. She arched a brow. "Your car is not here?" She sounded confused. "Are we flying to your place?" "You can fly if you want to, you're a witch anyways" I shrugged. She huffed, flipping her hair to the back. "We're gonna be on that" I informed, now pointing to the black motorcycle in front of us.

    {Diane}One thing I have made note of when talking to Harry is that conversing with him isn't exactly something that puts you in the best of moods, but I have to talk to him, it is for the best. I still find it hard to believe he agreed to be my boyfriend, demanding that I do his homeworks in return and I think that's fair enough, at least it's fair when it's Harry you're dealing with here. It's not like I have a choice but to accept every of his stupid terms and conditions. "Diane!" A lively voice called my name in the cafeteria and I turned my face to the owner of the voice. "Henry" I smiled at him.He waved at me to come over to his table and I obeyed his hand gesture, smiling wider. Henry was the guy that would have been perfect as my boyfriend, but as my unlucky life would have it, I was gonna be dating his brother instead. His cold, mean brother. I reached the table and saw Harley sitted there, also with a guy from the soccer team, and there was Harry, staring blankly at me.

    {Harry}'Is this the place Diane lives?' I asked myself, subtly taking note of the neat, shiny designs on the wall and the ceiling. No wonder the girl behaves like a spoiled princess. Her place looks like an actual palace with the beautiful colours and lights, but they were too bright for my liking. If it were to be my place I would have gone for dark designs. "You are really Diane's boyfriend?" The woman sitting on the other white couch questioned me for what? the fifth time. I seriously wanna tell her to piss off, but I had to remain patient. "Yes. I am Diane's boyfriend" I answered in a curt tone that says I wouldn't entertain further questions. She shouldn't take my niceness for granted. "Wow" She puffed out air "I can't beleive I would be seeing Harry Michaelson in reality because of my husband's daughter" She muttered, her painted lips lifted slightly in a scorn. I don't like her already. There's just something about the way she talks that irks me. "Can I take a picture?"

    {Diane}I have never had a date like the one I had with Harry. It didn't start well and definitely didn't end well, but at least it wasn't boring. The dates I've had with other guys involves a lot of ingenuine actions like the guys showing fake kindness, bringing up little conversations that always turns out to be mind numbing and the soft background music usually makes me want to sleep off on my seat, but I have always had to learn self discipline as Mr Pierce's daughter. I shook my head as I thought about my duties as the popular billionaire's daughter. I stared at my locker, my books in my hands as I started to wish I was born into a simple family where the daughters chooses what she wants, however she want it, wherever she want it and whoever she want it with. Life wouldn't be so complicated. "Diane" The husky voice made me look away from my locker to my side. Harry was standing there, staring at me with his left hand arrogantly in the pocket of his black pants. "Harry" I bre

    {Harry}Diane acts like an annoying little bitch most of the time but when she's been humbled by pains and not acting like one, I almost find her so adorable that it gets hard to not stare at her pretty face. Is that how people should be? Pretty face plus bitchy attitudes? Maybe Diane just got lucky she still got a beautiful face despite her ugly characters. I don't believe in luck, it's bullshit but maybe I just gotta believe in it this one time, I have to believe that Diane got really lucky. There were those hazel eyes that matched with her brown hair, her pointed nose, her round cheeks, and finally.....her pink lips. The soft, plump flesh gets my attention easily, but I knew this was not the time to get distracted by some lips.I quickly rose to my feet with a groan, rubbing the back of my head. I don't understand what exactly just happened between Diane and I but I think we were just inches close to......kissing? Kissing? Really?I peered down at her round face and saw how fl

    {Harry}Diane laid flat on the seat, her face upwards, then I slid my hand underneath her top. She took in a sharp audible breath through parted mouth. Diane's skin was soft, warm and smooth. I didn't know why she wanted my palm over her skin, I don't know if it really eases her pains or how it does it, but I know I like having my hand pressed on her skin just like I am currently doing. "You can move your hand upwards too" She said with a voice that was as light as the summer breeze. It made it hard for me to say no again. She had her eyes trailed on me and I had mine boring right into hers. I began to crawl my hand up and up till my fingers brushed underneath her bra. She gasped softly while I froze instantly, not tearing my eyes off her. What the hell just happened? I could swear that I felt something inside me just now, something odd. I retracted my hand from Diane's stomach and rose to my feet. I thought of walking away from her but I just couldn't do it. I could not leave

    {Diane}Harley and Henry did not stop staring between Harry and I. They were still trying to understand what was really going on, why I was with him till this time of the day, what we were really doing while everyone was away. They should wonder why we haven't killed each other too. "And....." Henry started, moving his eyes left and right. "What is going on?" Harley completed the sentence for him. Okay, time to talk. "Uhm...." I cleared my throat, stealing a quick look at Harry, hoping he was ready to help, but the jackass was simply standing like a useless statue, he does not look like he's gonna help out here. "So, the thing is uh...." Harley and Henry had all their focus on my face. "I ahh...I...." They rose their brows at my stuttering. Are triplets usually like this?"It's not exactly what...."

    {Harry}I casually rested my back on the couch Diane had laid on hours ago, my eyes were moving between the tv and my phone and I was also aware of Harley's eyes flicking from my face to the tv. That action was seriously getting on my nerves. My triplet sister sometimes wants to know every fucking thing going on around and I can bet she's been dying to question me ever since I entered the house, I could see that on her face and I was sure she could also see on my face that I wasn't ready to entertain questions, especially from her and most especially about the topic I was avoiding. Diane's topic. "I can feel your eyes on me, Harley" I said as I blindly picked another slice of pizza, my eyes right on the screen of phone. "I know you can" She said quietly. "Dad called and said he won't be visiting this weekend anymore" Henry informed as he grabbed a bottle of fruit juice from the kitchen. I almost forgot he was present. "I really miss the man" I also miss my dad, but I wasn't going

    Today was like the other days where I have to tutor Harry and endure his silence. I can't seem to completely grasp the meaning or the reason behind his coldness. "I'm just gonna take the other couch" He said, moving away from me, a book in his hand. I slanted my head, my brows furrowed in puzzlement "Why?" I wondered if I did something wrong cause why would he just want to suddenly transfer himself from the couch we shared to the one across me. "Don't you wanna take a break?" He asked back, sinking himself on his new seat. "I....want to" I answered slowly, uncertainty in my tone. "But it's just...." He was staring at me intently. "You don't wanna rest?" "I want to. It's just that..." I trailed off again. His intent eyes fixed on me was making my heart pound in my chest. I shook my head and he tore his eyes from me to have them on the book in his hand.I also got a book to focus on but I couldn't even get a meaningful sentence when all I could think about is Harry and his inco

    {Diane}There are some times Harry talks nicely to me like he's given his life to Christ, and right now is one of those few times he acts so kind like he's not even the same Harry that glares at every single thing. Because of his sudden change of attitude, the anger I felt for him earlier was slowly melting away. I pulled out my phone and began to text my driver not to worry about picking me up anymore since I knew no matter what happens at this point, I would be going with Harry. I've wanted that from the start, I just didn't want him to know that I was that desperate for his attention and care. I was his fake girlfriend after all, but the Lord knows I want him to treat me like I was his real girlfriend. "I'm texting my driver not to pick me up anymore" I informed as I typed swiftly on my phone. I took a peek of his face and caught him releasing a soft meaningful sigh. He gave me a nod, his eyes softening at me, then he took his hands off my waist to help me hold my bag while I t

    {Harry}Diane stared at me in shock, her stunning hazel eyes were huge and her plump mouth was slightly parted. I've noticed how she innocently opens her mouth halfway when she's surpised, also when she's blushing or....when we're about to kiss. It's hard to take the last kiss out of my mind, like, for fuck sake, I haven't even forgotten about our first kiss, then how can I forget the last one we had minutes ago. The crazy thing was that I do not understand how we even got there in the first place. It all felt like there's a spell controlling us, bringing us closer and filling us up with some strong desires I never knew was possible. Diane recovered from her shock and folded her small arms across that chest I always find attractive. "What is it, Harry?" "Get in" I ordered and she scoffed, her head moving from side to side. "So you drove to me just to order me around?" "Diane, just....look I wanna drive you home, alright?" "No" She objected and turned away. I quickly got off th

    {Diane}The consequences of my actions are still waiting somewhere for me, at least that's what my subconscious told me but I have been ignoring her to focus on this kiss. Harry's rugged hand had slipped from my waist to my hips in a slow and seductive manner, then he gave a little squeeze. I feel like my insides are melting down with his soft lips locked with mine, his scorching fingers on my face, his other rugged hand pressing seductively around my hips.To my disapproval, he stopped the kiss. I was panting softly with my swollen mouth half opened. It was ready for another kiss. Harry stared at my face for several seconds. His blue eyes were dim and foggy, lust and hunger showing in them. Without a word, he bent his head to take my lips. He kissed me with an intensity I've never felt from any guy, then he grabbed the back of my thighs to carry me easily onto his hard, well sculpted body, all the while he didn't break off the passionate kiss, not even for a second. I wrapped

    {Diane}Hours later after lunch, Harry was done with practice and I was at his place, acting like I actually came to tutor him when the truth is that I am dying to listen to him pour out his whole mind to me....that is if he can really pour out the whole of his mind to me, his fake girlfriend, but I just have to stay to see if he's going to set his mind free or not. "You know I thought we were supposed to submit this one next week?" He pointed to the last homework we just completed. "Yeah, but you know how Mr Rivera is" I replied. "Yeah, I know how Mr Rivera is, he can be an asshole sometimes" He said casually. He just insulted the man!"No, he is not an asshole" I frowned at him "He only changes his mind about homeworks every second" "And that annoys the hell outta me" He muttered, obviously displeased. He grabbed the books we used for today's session and started arranging them on the table placed at the side of the couch. I cleared my throat to get his attention but he didn't

'I want you'. The words were in my head, his sultry whispery voice sending sensual electricity to my body. I opened my mouth to let some air in. Harry had said he wants me, or did I mishear that?"Harry....you...you.. " Want me? I could only complete the sentence inwardly. "I want you" He repeated slowly, his deep gaze unfaltering. "I want you....at my place....in my bedroom...." His hooded eyes fell to my opened lips "...so I can gag your plump mouth...." He ran a quick look I could only view as a sexual one, from my face to my chest and my arms, then down to rest of my body. He made me feel very

    {Diane}There was something inside me, making me feel like I should've pushed Mason away when he tried to come closer since he's not my boyfriend. But Harry is not my boyfriend either....nothing real is going on between us, yet it feels like I have real things going on with him most of the time. "Hi, D" Harry greeted with no expression on his face. I do not know if he had greeted me with a clean mind or not since his perfectly carved face had that usual blankness that makes it difficult for me to know what he's thinking. "Hi, Harry" I greeted him back, surpised at how my voice went really low. He brought his face foward, bringing it lower quickly and shocked the hairs at the back of my neck with the tender, but lingering kiss he planted on my cheek, around the side of my lips. My mouth fell open in shock like a moron, and my heart almost jumped out at his action. My eyes shut and opened quickly, I was unable to utter a word, not when my heart was still at its irregular beat. I li

    {Diane}Mason was being nice to me and I can't just push him away even when sometimes I feel like I shouldn't accept his presence around me. Nelson, my good friend had warned me about Harry getting upset if he sees the way Mason interacts with me but I do not care about that since he made it clear the last time at his house that he doesn't give a fuck about me.But now, Mason is getting too close to me, I mean literally, like physically and I just stared up at him like the idiot that I am, then suddenly, something....I meant someone pulled him back before he could do anything else. "What the fuck, Mason?" It was Harry, his blue were eyes blazing with fury and the hair falling over an eye made him look like a hot, angry model. Mason grinned at him and stood straight afront him. "Harry, what...." "Stay. Away. From. My. Girl" Harry spelt out, every word coming with force and his cold eyes steadily fixed on Mason "Do you understand?" Mason's jaw clenched and Harry grabbed my hand.

    {Harry}I didn't mean to speak that way to Diane, but I was frightened when she started talking about me singing, and I hated it that I was frightened after trying for years not to feel that type of emotion. Fear shouldn't be part of my life anymore, but Diane had managed to remind me that no matter what, I would continue to live in that fear...the fear other people don't see or understand. For years, I have tried not to sing to anyone to give comfort or get my own comfort, the last time it happened, well....I decided it wouldn't happen anymore, but with Diane it was different. I should feel pains, and I felt it when I sang to Diane, but I also felt something else. Something different that I can't define. I shouldn't have acted that way around Diane, it's not even her fault that I have ridiculously connected my pains to my singing ability. "You know I think dad just wants to travel round the world with his fiancee, you know?" I heard Henry saying energetically but I wasn't intere
