Recruiting

"Which is?" I asked.

Draping his arm over my shoulder he says, "They have me and Liam."

"The two most aggressive and arrogant hot heads that have ever played the sport of American football, this Sam guy won't know what hit him." Says Niall.

"I wouldn't be so sure." Says Charlotte, "Sam is a big guy."

"Why must you argue against our awesomeness?" asked Liam.

Charlotte smiles, "I'd just hate for you to get crushed and humiliated on the field."

"Sweetheart," Liam says, "The only one who is getting crushed is this bulldozer lad."

"Are you sure?"

Liam nods, "I bet on it."

"How much?" asked Ashton.

"$20." Says Charlotte.

"How about you blow me and we'll call it even?" winks Liam.

Picking up her apple Charlotte throws it at him as we all laugh and she says, "$20 bet, you won't be able to get passed Sam."

"$20 dollars I will and he won't even see me or Haz coming." Says Liam.

Charlotte leans against the table and holds her hand out to Liam, "Done."

Taking her hand Liam grips it into his as he says, "It'll be like taking candy from a baby."

Charlotte smiles, "I wouldn't count on that."

Liam smirks and nods as Ashton says, "So when is everyone picking up there costumes for Saturday?"

I shrugged, "I think Thursday."

"Same day," says Liam and Niall.

"Friday." Says Charlotte.

"And who is riding with who?" asked Ashton.

"I'm riding with Dylan." Says Charlotte.

"Pebbles is with me." says Harry as he looks down at his phone.

A buzzing sound echoed in my ear as I say, "Liam are you and Niall riding your motorcycles?"

They nod as Ashton says, "Are Lily, Angel, and the guys coming?"

Niall shrugs, "I think so, I know Lily is with Luke and Michael, and I think Calum is with Angel."

"Oh." Says Ashton as he drums his fork along his tray. Looking up at him I notice the hurt look in his eyes as looked away.

The buzzing in my ear increased as I leaned my head down on the table, biting my lip as I gripped my seat.

"Hey," Harry touched the lower part of my back as his voice traveled into my head, What's wrong?

My head, I say back, It's hurts. I began to smell smoke again as my hand grabs onto his squeezing it.

Shifting into the Harry puts his back against the way that our table pushed up against as he turns pulling me in-between his legs as he places my head onto his chest. Making it seem like we were just being overly affectionate in the cafeteria he buries his face into the crock of my neck covered with my hair as he say,

Deep Breaths, relax, I'm here.

Slowing my breathing I focused on his heartbeat ignoring everything around me. The sounds in the room faded and the only thing I could hear was his heartbeat. The smoke began to fade slowly as chills crept up my spine. I laid against him for a moment as the students yelling and laughter began to fill the air again. Taking a deep breath Harry whispers, "Better."
