Jas POV
It's really amazing how fast time has flown. Friday was finally here. I still could not believe what Harry had said about wanting to spend this evening with me instead of going to the party. He loved to party and so do I. We used to go to every party, whether invited or crashed ones, enjoying the free booze, the dancing and the girls. That's how a straight person should be. Right? But not tonight... hehe!
Reaching school this morning as usual, at our locker, we were bombarded by Patrick and Ryan in regard to the party.
"Harry tonight you're coming right? You better come ya. I am really looking forward to spent time together with you.... I.. I mean all of us.... having fun tonight." Patrick yapping in a single breath. Only to stop at the end to take a deep breath. We all stared at him and after a few second we laugh at his predicament.
"You guys, me too. It will be fun as always. The four of us." Ryan added.
"Huh, well....... I'm kind off......." I stuttered. Before I even continued Harry spoke.
"Sorry Patrick, Ryan. We have to skip this one. Me and Jas had already had planned for tonight. Right Jas?" Harry turned to me and winked.
"Yes, yes... sorry." I stuttered again and was blushing so badly. My cheeks felt so hot at the moment and I was hoping that the guys did not see the redness on my face.
"NO! NO! NO!" Patrick snapped looking at Harry's bluntly. All of us were shocked of the moment. Looking at his face redden with anger and we think there's fumes coming out from the top of his head. People around us turn to stare at this small commotion. Everyone seems silent and waiting for Patrick to carry on. Harry gave a glance around us and as if on cue everyone start to move away.
"Why, Harry, why are you always spending time with Jas alone and not together with us like we used to. Aren't Ryan and me your best friends anymore? What we have done wrong to be side parked always. Tell us Harry." he spoke with a teary eyes. Not waiting for any answer, he just turned around and run away towards our classroom. Ryan gave us a sad look and run after Patrick.
I am so flabbergasted, surprised and shocked all in one. Turning to Harry's', there was sadness in his eyes. His face looked stoic with no expression, I could not tell if he is angry or sad. But his eyes tell everything. I tapped his shoulder lightly. He turned to face me and I saw the beginning of a tear at the corner of his eyes. He looked so vulnerable at that moment, so I do what I think best, and hug him. He sobs on my shoulder. Hearing him cry makes me start to cry too.
He pushed, gently away, he looked at me and turned to go to class. Entering the classroom, the atmosphere was rather solemn. Our teacher Mr. Brown had not arrived yet. So we proceed to our desk. Everyone seems to glance sadly towards us, but mainly to Harry. He was out on the spot with the event in the locker room. Going up the stairs to our seat, my eyes landed on Ryan. He looked at me and nodded his head while Patrick had his face palmed on his desk sobbing silently.
I felt so guilty as this was somehow all my fault. Because of my selfishness, I had forgotten of our friendship with Patrick and Ryan. I turned to face Harry, who was looking out the window ignorant with the things happening around him. I tapped him again. He looks at me. "Harry, we don't have to do it tonight. We can do some other days if you still want to." I spoke in a low voice. Do not really wanting for the rest of the people around us hearing it.
"I'm sorry Jas. Just to be fair to you too, I will just stay at home tonight." His words just came out as a mumble, loud enough for me to hear.
"No Harry, for friendship's sake, lets all four of us go to the party together as always." I suggested. He shook his head in disagreement.
"No. Instead lets do this. Keep on with the plan, I'll talked to Patrick and Ryan later. But there's going to be some changes k." I just nodded.
The class had ended and Harry quickly went to Patrick and Ryan.
"Guys, we need to talk." Ryan and Patrick looked at each other and followed Harry and me out the door. We walked together silently out from school toward our hang out place. Once we have reached there, Harry was the first one to speak.
"Patrick, Ryan. Look, I'm really, really sorry if lately me and Jas seems to forget about our friendship and all. Not my intention seriously."
Patrick tried to interrupt, but Harry stops him. "Let me finish. I treasure our friendship so much and I don't want anything to happen with it. All of this is just a misunderstanding. I do really not like to go to Carmelia party due to the obvious reason I don't like her. Both of you know what happen between me and her right. I'm sorry I didn't inform both of you and I asked Jas to make plans for tonight." Harry spoke lengthily. "So, let me make up to the both of you. Let all of us go out together tonight and have fun as always. Just the four of us."
All four of us just looked at each other.. After a minute of silence, Patrick was the first one to speak. "I am sorry guys for being childish and jeopardize our friendship. I shouldn't act that way. It's so immature from my side." he looked as though he was going to cry.
Not another word was spoken, Harry just went closer to Patrick and hug him tightly. Seeing that, me and Ryan jumped to join them in a group hug. It was really a romantic scenario. Together once again like always. A friendship that is bound by love and brotherhood.
That Friday night, Patrick had borrowed his father's car to pick us up one after the other. Ryan sat beside him and I was sitting in the back seat with Harry. All the way to town, we had been sitting rather comfortably close to each other. Occasionally I would be holding on to Harry's tight for stability whenever Patrick makes a sharp turn.
Harry's had his one arm over my shoulder and was holding me closer to him and he radiates warmth from his body and the scent that he was wearing, soothes my scent of smell serenely. All night long Harry's was always by my side and I am not complaining. Whether in the movie theater or at the diners, he will be beside me.
The night was filled with laughter and joy as we were reminiscing the time spent with each other like old times. We had decided to make plans for a camping trip, just the four of us, during the school break and all of us are enthusiastically looking forward for the day to come. I treasure and love our friendship.
But I will always love Harry more.
