Strings of Fate

At my announcement, Megan gasps and nudges Darrien who smiles. Bellamy gives little visible reaction, but I can feel him relaxing beside me, so apparently he’s happy to hear it too. Harry looks stricken. I know I just confirmed something that he already suspected, but I’m not sure he totally believed it would really be true. His brow furrows and he eats his dinner in

near silence, nodding along with the conversation while his mind is clearly elsewhere. I’ve almost finished eating when I decide to check how he’s dealing.

“Harry? Are you alright? I didn’t mean to send you on an existential crisis or anything. You don’t need to freak out too much. It will all work out eventually..” Harry’s headjerks up to look at me, like he had forgotten that I was actually here.

“Sorry babe, I was just thinking that it might be worth changing my approach with her. Clearly what I have been doing isn’t working very well.” He says pointedly, taking a sip of his drink. I had forgotten that his drink is spelled. Harry is… sweating?

“What did that drink do to you?” I ask curiously.

“I’m not totally sure, but I feel like it’s about a million degrees in here if that helps at all.”

Huh, so she overheated him? A strange choice.

“I guess I see what you

ean by changing your approach. But you’ll manage I’m sure.” I tell him encouragingly. Suddenly an evil grin crosses Harry’s face.

“Actually, I think I am going to keep on doing exactly what I have been doing. At least I’ve got her attention now. I’m the only one at this table who got a special drink.” Huh, he’s… happy I’m not sure that Cam was aiming to please him when she spiked his drink. But then again, he’s not wrong that he has her attention. Without hesitating, Harry stands up, leans down and k*sses me on the cheek. Bellamy growls and Harry dodges away as Bellamy grabs at

him.

“I have had a grand time everyone, but I think it’s about time I take my usual space at the bar… it’s a little hot in here after all.” Harry winks and as he walks away I can see him

unbuttoning the first few buttons of his shirt. He catches the eye of more than a couple women as he passes. Hot in here indeed.
