I'm so sorry readers that it's taken me this long to upload this chapter. It's been really hectic for me lately because I've had multiple exams and assignments happening. I hope this will make up for it and I'll do the next chapter ASAP. Love you all E x

Chapter 2

After we'd finished our coffee Harry walked me home. "So do you have a boyfriend back in Sydney?" Harry asked. I was a bit stunned at what he was asking, I mean it's not like Harry wasn't allowed to ask that or anything but it was just out of the blue.

"Ah no, there's no one in that department. I mean there was, but when I told him that I was moving he broke up with me… and right before I left… I found out he was cheating on me when we were together" I stammered. I thought I recovered but when I heard it again it breaks my heart.

Harry said in a brighter tone "Well he doesn't deserve you and he's a dick for cheating on you. Any guy would be lucky to have you!"

I just laughed. Deep down I knew Harry was right. "What about you any lucky girls in your life?"

"No not at the moment but I am on the look for the right girl"

We had made it to my house and I thanked Harry for the talk and coffee and said goodbye. As I entered the house I called out to see if anyone was in. Charlotte then scared me saying "Who was that outside then? You cheeky girl! You haven't got a boyfriend on your first day have you?"

"Jeez, Big Brother much. Harry's just a friend." I walked off hoping that soon that relationship status could change from friend to boyfriend.

At dinner I was thinking about Harry. I kind of zoned out of everything around me. When he said that he was looking for the right girl I was so happy. Harry and I have chemistry and I did like him a lot. His smile, his emerald green eyes and his curly brown hair. He was funny, charming and really nice.

"Knock knock" Mum said peeping through the door. "Hi darl, are you okay you seemed off with the fairies at dinner? Like something was wrong. How was your first day?" Oh god she knew!

"Yeah I'm fine and school was good I made some friends so I guess that was good"

"Oh I made some friends too at work" Now, knowing my Mum she's gonna continue on about this. "Yeah her name's Anne, Anne Styles" You've got to be kidding me. Harry's Mum! This isn't happening. The boy I'm crushing on's Mum is friends with my Mum.

All I could to is smile at Mum, smiling to try and hide my embarrassment. "We were talking and she's really lovely. She said she had a son in your year at school, Henry or Harold or something."

My stupid self at that point blurted out "His name's Harry Mum!"

"Yes Harry, wait how do you know him?"

"Um don't worry. Look Mum as much as I'd love to keep on chatting with you, I've got school tomorrow so can we call it a night?"

"Sure love, night night" Mum kissed me on the forehead and tucked me in like she used to when I was young. I think after she left my room, Mum knew that there was something up.

As I was trying to fall asleep I found myself distracted again.

Harry's POV

Ever since I came home from Eireanne's house I was thinking of her. I was thinking of her the whole night. At dinner, I was unaware of everything around me that was obvious when I ate my dinner, burnt. Her name is just so beautiful, those eyes that change from a fresh green to a bright blue, that luscious long dark brown hair. Her laugh and smile that could make anyone happy and the kindness and understanding she has towards others. I loved. I wanted to take in every part of her when we were together because she was just stunning.

"Hey" Mum said as she sat down on the end of my bed.

"Hi, dinner was great by the way"

"Harry the dinner was burnt. There's no way you can say I cooked it well. I hated it!" I just nodded and broke out a small smile. "That's what I wanted to talk to you about you seem a bit out of it tonight. Is something wrong?" Nothing was wrong, everything was far from wrong. I did want to tell Mum about Eireanne but I chose not to, not yet.

"Um ah yeah, everything's fine. How about you? How's work?"

"It's all good the usual. That reminds me, I was talking with the new girl, Sandra and she said she had a daughter your age at school, ah Eireanne the name was. Lovely name and the spelling's beautiful."

"Oh really. Well I'll ask the others if they've heard of her and maybe she can hang out with us" I didn't like lying to my Mum but I thought if I start talking, I won't be able to stop.

After a bit of chatting Mum said goodnight. That night I hoped to know Eireanne better as the days went on.
