Harmony's P.O.V.

'Excuse me?' I hear the British accent from the back of our great hall. I was in Music History, passing notes with Thomas when the new guest came in. All the students looked to the back to see a older man standing at the two big oak doors.

'Shit.' Thomas says rolling his eyes and turning in his seat to face the front.

'What?' I ask but before I got my answer the guest continued.

'May I see Harmony Ronald's please?' the man asked.

'yes, yes you may.' Mrs. Jenkins said nodding to me. I stood up putting my pencil and paper in my bag than throwing it over my shouldering, heading to the doors. When I reached the man he motioned for me to follow him. I followed him in silence when we reached a office labeled, 'Mr. Daniels'..... Thomas's dad.

'Have a seat' Mr. Daniels said motioning to a seat after he closed the door. I sat down. 'I'm not here for pleasant news, Miss. Ronalds.' he told me.

'Okay?' I asked as politely as I could.

'I'm here to talk to you about personal business and I hope you will take my warning seriously.' He leaned forward in his chair behind the desk. 'Miss. Ronalds is it true you are seeing my son, Thomas?'

'Yes, it is.' I say quite confused.

'Than let me make it clear to you that this is no play time.' he said with a grim face. 'You will finish seeing my son or I will have to take major action.'

'Your son and I are in love.' I say confused.

'Love does not exist.' he laughed 'It's a silly myth that I once believed in. But then I found out that work is more important. Anyway. You will stop seeing my son or you will never see this campus again. Do you understand me?' he asked.

'Um, yea... I guess.' I say taking a deep breath.

'Good.' he said with a friendly smile again. 'Than you may go back to class.' I stand up and start for the door. 'but,' he stopped me. 'remember, Mrs. Ronald's, I will be watching you.' he said. I turned and walked out without another word.

On my way back to class I ran into Thomas and I could not look at him.

'Hey, what's wrong?' he asked me in a concerned voice. 'What did my father say.' he said more serious.

'Um,' I say still looking down. There was a lump in my throat in tears were blurring my vision. 'Thomas?'

'Yea?' He asks. 'look at me.' he says softly trying to lift my head with his finger but I turned my head, letting it go. He put his hand on my cheek. I rested into his hand feeling it's warmth.

'Please, Harmony, tell me.' he says.

'I don't- I don't think I can do this.' I say.

'What? you can't do what?' he asks.

'You.....' I sniffed as a couple tears rolled down my cheek. 'me....i mean first the whole weird thing with Klaire and now your father is threatening my scholorship and I don't know if I can handle this...' I trail off in tears.

'Shhh Shhh.' he says stepping forward trying to comfort me. 'No one is going to get in the way of how much I love you.'

'But maybe.' I say sniffing again. 'love will have to wait.'

'No, no,' he said shaking his head. 'don't talk like that. please, harmony.' I felt his hand smooth against my cheek as he lifted my face to his. At first I was hesitant but I gave in to his sweet kiss. It wasn't hard or fast or passionate. It was just soft, slow, and sweet. The kisses I loved. But I pulled away biting my lower lip. His hand kept is position on my cheek.

'Love is going to have to wait. I'm sorry. I love you. Goodbye Thomas.' I say as more tears streamed down. I turned away and didn't look back but I knew he hadn't moved yet. I loved him. I didn't want to say goodbye but I had to.

I just had to.

Did love exist... or was it a silly excuse people use?
