Fight for You

We arrived at an Italian restaurant and got a table for eight, and sat down as we waited for the boys to show up. After about ten minutes the boys finally arrived and were quickly ushered in the door by their bodyguards before anyone could recognise them.

“What took you so long?” Danielle asked Liam worriedly.

“We had to do a few laps around to lose some paparazzi before coming here,” He told her leaning down to kiss her softly. I smiled at the display of affection and felt someone’s hand graze mine. I looked over already knowing who it was and smiled at Harry as he sat down next to me.

Everyone ordered neither me nor Harry were eating much because we had not long eaten, and of course we were the loudest in the restaurant. Laughing and being generally loud was always a must when being with these boys. I ended up giving Niall the rest of my food only to be given the biggest and sweetest smile ever that made me blush so hard.

“I think I might steal this one Hazza,” Niall said winking at me as Harry’s arm tightened around the back of my chair.

“What should we do now?” Louis asked obviously getting bored. I glanced at Harry who went to open his mouth and say something.

“Yes, yes you two can go!” Eleanor said waving Harry’s keys in front of him frowning. “But just remember she was ours first.” She said gesturing between her and Danielle making me laugh as I said goodbye to everyone. Harry grabbed my hand and led me out of the restaurant. We were stopped by their bodyguards as they asked where we were going. Harry looked at me quickly and I realised he didn’t even have anything else planned.

“We could just hang out at my place?” I offered. “Casey and Paige are working today.” Harry agreed and security let us go. We jumped in the car and What Makes You Beautiful began to play on the radio. Harry went to change the song, but I slapped his hand away and turned it up louder. He looked at me surprised as I started to sing the song extremely loud. We drove back to my house listening to the songs with him joining in every now and then, obviously putting my own voice to shame.

We got inside and I showed him around the house since none of them had actually gotten a full tour of the house. We ended at my door and walked in, I sat on the bed as he walked around looking at all the photos on my wall. My walls were literally plastered with photos everywhere. There wasn’t much room left. Eventually when some get old I rip them down and replace them with new ones but you can barely ever see any parts of my wall. I had fairy lights haphazardly weaving around the photos lighting up my room in different colours.

I saw Harry chuckling at a few embarrassing photo’s from high school making me blush slightly. But hey, who I was back then has made me who I was today so I wasn’t completely embarrassed of my school photos. There was of course a lot of Casey and Paige, Tyler had taken up a fair few chunks of my wall but the moment I broke up with him I burned those photos and replaced them. Part of the healing process Casey and Paige convinced me to do.

He walked over to my bedside table and picked up a frame I had there. It was a picture of my parents and me at the beach. It was the last picture that was taken of all of us together.

“You look like your mother,” Harry said to me as he sat down on the edge of the bed looking at the photo. I crawled over to sit beside him.
“Thanks,” I whispered to him. He put the photo down and turned to me grabbing my hands and pulling me slightly closer. Before we could go any further I pulled away and sat against the headboard on the bed.

“So you know a lot about me, but there’s still things I don’t know about you.” I said to him smiling as he smiled back and sat back against the headboard next to me.

“What would you like to know?”

“Everything.” I smiled at him as he started to talk. He told me about his life when he was younger, about his sister Gemma, and how his parents divorced when he was young. But he likes who his mum’s with now. He told me about singing in school and how he was in a band and they used to play at weddings. He told me about the many girlfriends he’s had. Only because I pestered him until he told me. He then told me about X Factor and meeting the boys. I already knew about this but it was different hearing it from him and getting his point of view of everything. Then he told me about all the places he had visited all over America and places in Australia and of course the UK. I couldn’t help but feel a little jealous. I’d always wanted to travel as much as he had.

By the time he had finished we could hear Paige and Casey downstairs.

“Did you want to stay for dinner?” I asked him. He nodded before I pulled him up and he followed me downstairs and into the kitchen. Casey and Paige froze the moment they saw the both of us, before they both grinned.

“What were you two doing up there?” Paige asked winking at me as I smacked her on the arm and Harry sat down at one of the stools at the counter. I started to pull things out to make dinner. I couldn’t help but stare at Harry as he chatted with Paige and Casey so easily. I still couldn’t believe that I knew him let alone spent the day with him, just us two. And the fact that he liked me was completely unreal. It seemed like a dream, but this was so much better because this wasn’t the Harry that I had swooned over when listening to his music and watching interviews he’d done. No the Harry I was falling for was the real Harry. I had seen a side of Harry that the rest of the world hadn’t seen, the side that made me like him more than anything.

After dinner Harry said he had to go. Louis had been texting him for the past half hour saying that don’t spend any time together anymore. He said goodbye to the girls as I walked him to the door.

“What are you doing tomorrow?” He asked.

“I have to work,” I pouted as he laughed.

“Thank you for today, it helped to get my mind off everything,” I said gesturing towards my cheek.

“That wasn’t the only reason I did it,” Harry said suddenly stepping closer to me. “I don’t want you to think I’m a playboy or that I would use you.” He practically whispered to me. I realised what I had said last night had really hurt him.

“I don’t think that, I didn’t even really think that last night. I just said it.” He instantly smiled at me stepping forwards and wrapping his arms around my waist as I wrapped mine around his neck and pulled him close for a hug. We lent back slightly with our arms still around each other. He started to lean towards me again and my eyes instinctively shut expectantly. I felt his lips ever so slightly brush against mine that I could barely feel them, but that small touch still sent tingles throughout every part of my body. Suddenly I felt his forehead against mine. My eyes instantly snapped open staring into his emerald eyes.

“I’ll text you later,” I merely nodded not really sure if I could speak at all. He lent forward and pressed a kiss to my forehead before unwrapping himself from me and walked out the door.

I slowly walked past Casey and Paige not really hearing their questions as I headed up to go for a shower the whole time smiling as wide as I could. After my shower I crawled into my bed and saw I had a text.

From: Harry :D

I’ll see you tomorrow. Goodnight and sweet dreams my love xx

Safe to say I fell asleep with the biggest grin on my face.
