The New Girl

{73} Happy pills, envelopes, and two ships

Harry's POV:

It's Christmas day and I honestly am starting to worry.  Chelle hasn't replied to me for a long time.  Plus it's Christmas, can't I get a damn message from her?  God, she makes me pissed off and love her all the time.  She's been like this ever since I've known her. 

Going over to Gracie's was a good decision though.  It made my mood much better and I can't stop pissing myself over her gift.  Okay... Not really pissing myself but I was close.  I'm a weird person. 

"Hola, it's Rochelle.  Please leave a message after the..." BEEP. 

I kick my foot into the wall and frown, "Erm.. Chelle?  Merry Christmas.  Pick up, there's something obviously wrong... yeh.  Call me-"

I heard a click and then her voice, "Harry, stop freaking yourself the fuck out."

"Lovely to hear your voice." I roll my eyes.

"I love you, Haz.  I really do... We just need to talk." Chelle makes my heart beat fast. 

What happened now?  That's never good to hear from a girl.

"Shit, well talk.  Tell me why you haven't been responding!"

"No.  We need to talk, like, in person.  Figure out if we're really in this together, decide what to do, and actually see eachother.  I know you're with Gracie and..."

"Woah, babe.. " I pinch the bridge of my nose, "I know we haven't seen eachother, but we will back at Brookwood.  It's not long until we go back.  Gracie and I have worked things out a while ago.  It's only you now.. "

I couldn't stop myself from turning to my cheesy side.  And thinking about the exciting news. 

"We just need to talk in person, alright?  That's all I'm asking." Chelle says in her stressed voice.

"Gotcha." I nod even though she can't see me, "After we talk can we have a nice snog.  It's been long?"

"You'll have to see.  Plus, I personally think you're horrible at kissing."

I snort, "Shut up, you love it."

"Merry Christmas...." She teases and hangs up.

I don't know what I'm going to do about girls.  Dear god.

Grace's POV:

I can't believe how much wrapping paper is on the ground.  We finished our Christmas morning gifts and are enjoying an amazing brunch.  My mom's cooking is something I definitely miss.  Most of my gifts have been money and clothes.  You can't go wrong with those types of gifts.  It makes me happy seeing my dad smiling so much.  I don't know what's making him smile but it must have to do with the fact our family is getting along.
