JUST GOT LUCKY novel Chapter 68

CHAPTER 67

ELUSIVE

LINDY'S POV

It has been crazy in school ever since the PEP Rally and it’s all thanks to Avery.

All students were making fun of me and I didn’t know what was their point of trying to poke fun at me when they clearly do not know what happened to me and Harry. Martha tells me they were jealous and I should not let it get into my head but I can’t stop thinking about it so much because almost everyone in school were making fun of me.

As much as I wanted to avoid everything with what has been going on in school, I still cannot help but feel so down and humiliated every time they call me names and tease me. I’ve been named as “Attention Seeker”, “Flavor of the Month” and the infamous “SLUT” that they frequently call me every time they see me. I don’t get it why they were bullying me and I don’t know how will I be able to stop everyone to stop teasing me.

Lately, I have noticed that Harry has been getting pretty busier and somewhat elusive. I wonder how he has been doing because these past few days he felt different. He didn’t talk to me that much and even though he was the only thing that’s been keeping me happy despite the constant bullying I get from school, he was far and somewhat always not there for me.

I know he is busy with all the touring from one country to another, from North America Leg to South American Leg to European Leg to Asian Leg. They are literally all over the world and that is on a whole different level of amazingness. I try not to put myself in the shoes of a worrier because I have to understand that he is an immensely engaged man with a lot of responsibilities to fulfill for his fans. I should not be selfish. I understand that he is busy and he gets tired too and he needs sleep. And, he has a lot of things on his plate especially with this upcoming movie for their On The Road Again: Backstage Access which I am sure will be a huge hit.

I couldn’t be more proud of Harry and the lads.

They all deserve everything that is happening in their lives right now.

DAY 1

I have not received any message from Harry and it somewhat bothers me because he usually texts me but this he didn’t so tried to text him again.

Hi babe! Busy? You haven't texted me today. Love you curly! -Lindy

By lunch, I still didn’t hear from Harry and it was starting to be alarming or maybe he is just really busy and I am overthinking of things that should not be thought much. I texted him again that I was having lunch and even sent him a selfie in the bathroom so that he will remember me.

I hope the photo will help.

When my class finished, I was excited to go home. I instantly checked my phone but there was still no message from Harry and it makes me wonder if I ever did something that made him mad. I tried texting him again anywaysm maybe he is jsut overbusy.

It's already four in the afternoon. My classes just finished. Still no text from you. I miss you baby :( I'm OMW home. -Lindy

I stopped by the grocery since my mom has told me to buy some grocers. As I finished, I headed out of the grocery store and found a few paps who were snapping photos of me from afar. I tried to ignore then since they were not really worth my time. I took the bus and rode home by myself.

It has been going on like this but this was actually the first time that Harry didn’t text me. Lately he responds to my messages pretty late or he only replies when he is going to sleep and I was okay with that becasuse I know he has a lot of things to do as a celebrity. I tried to understand his situation but I hope something was not wrong and I hope he is not feeling sick.

I hope he is feeling alright.

DAY 2

I tried calling his number a few times but he doesn't answer my calls or sometimes I cannot reach him and I know I should start getting worried mroe about what is going on between us because he is getting pretty elusive. He hasn't updated his twitter and his Instagram too and I am super curious what is happening to him. I have tried sending him messages on all his socials but I didn’t receive any.

I messaged the boys too but they said they were really kind of having a pretty much hectic schedule with the tour and the movie. I understand that they ere preoccupied but at least these guys were reaching out to me and yet Harry not even tried message me or ask how I have been. Harry would always make a little time for me even when he's so busy on tour but lately he’s….

Gone.

I miss you baby. Call me soon. I've been dying to hear your voice. I love you Styles. -Lindy

One little two little Indians four little five little six little Indians seven little eight little nine little Indians ten little Indian boys! :D -Lindy

Every after five minutes I message him but I'm getting no response.

And every time I don’t get a response, I get sadder.

Everytime I wait for his message or a call, I get disappointed because there was absolutely nothing.

I was starting to get worried.

DAY 3

On the third day, I was very much hopeful that Harry will talk to me. I tried having a positive attitude to start my day even though I know people in school will still laugh at me and tease me. I ahve been getting used to how they were bullying me and I am super thankful that Martha is there to support me and to shout back at those students calling me a slut.

I didn’t bother about those people anymore, I was more focused on getting Harry to talk to me and I was still damn hopeful that he will. The entire time that I was in class, I was feeling terribly bothered, my mind was literally thinking only about Harry and why he is not talking to me.

I wonder if I have done something wrong because he still didn’t talk to me.

Did I do something wrong? Are you ignoring me? Call me when you get this. -Lindy

I'm missing youuuuu :( -Lindy

The number you have dialed is currently not available at the moment. Please try your call later.

I sighed.

Harry, if this is some prank, it’s not funny anymore. Tell me what is going on, please. Call me soon please? I'm worried of you already. Love you always. -Lindy

DAY 4

Four days.

It has been four days since the last time he contacted me and I’m still bothered why in the world he is not talking to me. I wonder if he lost his phone but if he did then he could probably tell the lads to message me about it. I have been texting him, leaving him calls, reaching him on twitter and on Instagram and constantly messaging him but no response.

Nothing.

Is he that busy on tour?

The paparazzi haven't been following me that much lately which felet relieving because they have been tailng my ass for two days straight. It felt so much better that they left my troubled life. I mean, I am already worrying about my studies, all these daily bullying and my elusive boyfriend who has not contacted for four freaking days.

Avery was still getting on my nerves and loves humiliating me in front of his cheering squad all the freaking time. Martha keeps me company all the time and Ididnt want her to worry about me too much as she already is.

But Harry is all I that need after a day of being laugh at and being bullied but he is not there. I wanted him to comfort me but he is not around. I have been crying every night for missing him and for wondering where he is or if he is even thinking about me because lately I don’t think he is. It didn’t feel like he missed me at all. Before, I know by the end of the day it's going to alright because I have him but now that he is not here or anywhere to be found.

I no longer know what to do.

I miss so much but he is not reaching out to me.

HARRY'S POV

DAY 1

I see her name appearing on my screen.

I know I should answer and I know I want to.

I can see that she left me messages for today but I haven't opened it yet.

I don't want to.

I keep placing my phone inside my pocket today and just talk to the lads to keep myself busy.

Louis was talking with Zayn as they were laughing at something they have read online but I ws not in the mood to laugh or to be joyful. Niall has been talking constantly with Martha and he seems so smitten with Lindy’s friend and I am really happy for him and for her.

My phone vibrates again as Lou was doing my hair while Louis’ sister, Lottie has joined in to do the band’s hair and make up under Lou Teasdale. I stare my own relfection in the mirror while Lous stares at me as she pampers my curls.

“It’s a miracle you’re not on your phone.” She teases.

I smiled tightlipped.
