He took my small hands into his large ones. I was too lost in those dimples to say anything in protest. We marched up the stairs, as I looked around the house. It warm and cozy, just like mine. I was dragged into his room, which was surprisingly clean. He gestured me inside his room and excused himself to washroom. I took this as opportunity to explore his room clearly. He had few posters on his wall, and a library.

So he reads, well that's definitely attractive

One poster of Arctic Monkeys intrigued me; it was pasted behind the door, as I touched its glossy surface, the door closed instantly, to my huge surprise and dismay. I instantly regretted my spontaneous action that followed. I tried to turn the knob, to open the door, but it didn't budge. I tried twisting it in many ways, when Harry reappeared out of the bathroom.

"What the ...., don't tell me, you tried twisting the knob."

I nodded in response.

He quite irritated by my action, tried to open it, in vain.

"Well we're locked, and all thanks to you."

I was lost for words; series of embarrassments I created made me flushed with shame. And now as a reward I have honor to spend my time with him. I looked at him as he started dialed numbers on his phone.

"Mom, get us out, we're locked in"

And few other things he told, which I didn't pay attention. I was staring at those toned abs until he turned towards me grinning. Shit I'm caught.

"I actually enjoyed the show in the morning" he said with a loop sided grin.

There we go I actually hoped he wouldn't bring in that now. But I think fate and he had another plans. I casually shrugged, and tried to look away, but Harry wouldn't let me. He placed a finger beneath my chin and forced me to face him.

"What's your name?"

"Alexandra...."

Shit, shit, I cursed myself, I shouldn't have told my exact name, considering how I hate to be called by my full name.

"But you can call me Alex." I added rather quickly.

He smirked; I could easily guess what was going inside his stupid mind. "So Alexandra, what actually were you trying to do this morning?"

He asked with his eyebrows arched up.

"I..." before I could finish he cut me off.

"Trying to seduce your hot neighbor?"

Heat rose up my cheek and the same instant my hand was in air, up to smack his pretty face. But before I could do that, he caught my wrist and pulled and twisted it, such that my back was pulled into his chest.

I couldn't see his face, but I knew he was grinning like a mad man.

"What the hell Harry, release me at once", I shouted.

"How dare you raise your hand at me?"

"How dare you talk to me like that?" I shot back.

"Well what I told is only plain truth, sweetheart."

Every second my temper was rising at constant speed of 1°C. He was definitely getting into my nerves.

I tried to keep calm and said "It wasn't done at purpose, it was accident! Sorry for inconvenience."

"Who said it was inconvenience, I enjoyed every bit of it."

By now I was blushing to a completely new level, firstly due to the proximity and secondly due to plain embarrassment.

"Now please let me go." I pleaded realizing that my wriggling and constant budging wasn't working.

"Ok. I'll release you, but in one condition."

"What is it?" I snapped before thinking twice.

"Feisty one, I like it. Just let me drop you to school tomorrow"

Such a dumb condition, I could easily accept it. I saw no harm, with him dropping me. Only I realized his intentions.

"Sure, agreed" as soon I said, he let go my hand and I was freed.

"So, I heard Luke is taking you for a date"

I turned him, my jaw could almost touched the floor. How in earth he knew about it. Luke only asked me few hours ago, and I didn't see him in Luke's group.

"How did you know?"

"That isn't answer to my question."

"But..." I was cut off

"Answer me and I'll answer you."

"Oh, well yes he did ask me out, and yes I agreed."

"Great, when is your date?"

"No, tell me his did you know about it, first."

"Duhh, it's about Luke, it spread like forest fire."

"Oh." I realized the intensity of Luke's popularity. I felt a fade smile spreading across my face to which Harry's face scrunched up.

"When is your date?" He asked again.

Well I decided that I won't let him know this, no way. Let it be kept within me only, if he knew Luke was taking me out, he should also know when, besides I'm not fully satisfied with his reason.

"Would you stop grinning like a Cheshire cat, and now tell me, when is he taking you out."

This was my turn to smirk "And I thought only girls are interested in gossips, I guess I was wrong." Ha on your face!

He was going to say something, but we heard the turning of knob. And the door opened, as Gemma came in smiling.

"Hope you guys didn't do anything wrong." winking at us.

"Obviously not." we replied at sane time.

"Okay I get it; you both don't seem to be too fond of each other."

I smiled and exited the room as quickly as possible, I didn't want any more business with this rude boy, well I may add cute rude boy.

I told good bye to Anne and rushed out of the house. Before reaching the gate, I heard someone calling my name.

I looked up, to find Harry waving. "Keep curtains open and don't forget the promise" he winked.

I chuckled shaking my head. How come suddenly my life is blessed with two hot boys, my fate never ceases to surprise me.
