*HARRY'S POV*

Of course when I opened the limo door for her, the boys had to be there. I wish they weren't here right now. Don't get me wrong, I love the boys. They're like my brothers. But, I just wanted to be able to enjoy my date with Virginia. Without the boys.

"Louis, can I talk to you for a moment out here?" I asked the cheeky boy as he nodded and headed out of the limo. I opened the door for Virginia and led her to an empty seat while I had a talk with Louis.

"What the hell are you guys doing here? You're going to ruin my first date with Virginia!"

"We just wanted to meet the girl that you've been talking non-stop about. She's gorgeous mate." He had a point there. She was gorgeous. With her blonde hair that cascades just past her shoulders. And her eyes that sparkled whenever I saw her. She always seemed so happy.

"Plus, we couldn't stand to be in the house any more. Lauren was there. You know how we can't stand her. I thought you broke it off with her mate?" He added. I wondered why Lauren would be at our house. Ever since I dumped her last month, she's been coming around more often, now wearing skimpier clothes, probably trying to get my attention. I mean, I am Harry Styles after all.

I bet you're all wondering who Lauren is. Well, ya know how everyone has that crazy ex who won't leave you alone? Yeah, we'll that's Lauren. We were together for about five months when I ended it. When I went to her movie set to surprise her, I found her in her dressing room. But she wasn't alone. No, she was locking lips with her co-star. Wanna know the worst part of it all? When I asked her about it the next day, she denied it. She lied straight to me. And that's when I broke it off. Everyone might think that I'm some player who has a new girlfriend every week, but I'm not! I'm just trying to find the girl I'm supposed to be with forever. My soulmate. Just like everyone else, I'm trying to find love in this crazy messed up world of mine.

"So that means you have to come here and ruin my date?" He just ignored me and hopped back into the limo, right next to Virginia. I took a seat next to Liam.

I took out my phone and pulled up my messages.

To: Virginia <3

I'm sorry they're here babe! I didn't know they would be here.

Minutes later, my phone vibrated, signalling that I got a new message.

From: Virginia <3

It's fine! They're funny. Are they going to eat with us at the restaurant?

I looked up from my phone. Still trying to decide if I should let the lads eat with us. Before I could say anything though, Virginia interrupted my thoughts.

"Do you guys want to join us for dinner?"

When I looked around at the lads, they were all nodding their heads vigorously.

Well, this was going to be an interesting night.

.

When we finally got to the restaurant, it was 7:43, we were thirteen minutes late for our reservation. I'm sure they'll still let me in, I mean, I AM Harry Styles after all.

I took Virginia'a hand in mine and led her to the entrance of the restaurant. Luckily, there were no paparazzis waiting for us. The lads followed us into the fancy restaurant and we waited to be seated.

"Harry Styles? Party of two?" The restaurant greeter asked us. I made my way to the greeter, "actually, I need to make that a party of six. Sorry for the late notice". I could see the annoyed look in her eyes when I said that, but she just muttered "Right away Mr.Styles".

When I turned to face Virginia, she was preoccupied with my best friend. Of course he would be asking her all sorts of questions, trying to protect me from anyone with bad intentions. He was the best.

"Louis, stop harassing her. She's my date, not yours." I laughed while pentalizing him. "And what if I want her to be my date? She's my wife now. We are married. Got that Virginia?" Louis piped up.

Virginia just sat there with an amused look on her face, but much to my surprise, she replied with, "yes husband. I shall forever be faithful to you. By the way, I want a huge ring." I could not believe it, I found a beautiful girl who liked me for being me, and not Harry Styles from One Direction. Plus, she got along great with all the lads.

Just right then, I noticed that none of the other lads were even paying any attention. Zayn was tapping away on his phone, while Niall was searching a nearby menu, of course, and Liam was just staring at Louis and Virginia.

.

"Can we go get ice cream?" Niall screamed across the table as I was paying for everyone's meal.

"I could go for an ice cream. What do you think Virginia?" I asked my date. "That depends, is there chocolate?" She answered playfully. "Of course there will be chocolate." I replied. "Count me in. As long as there's chocolate, I'm there."

We all left the table and made our way back outside to the limo. Of course, the papa had found us and were waiting outside for us. I wonder if Virginia would be able to handle them.

I took her hand in mine right before heading out into the crowd of people outside. I leaned in to her ear and whispered, "I'm sorry about the paps. Just keep your head down and don't answer any of them." She had a confused look on her face but she understood.

We walked out towards the limo, and made about five steps. However, I was stopped in my track when my arm was yanked back and Virginia'a fingers were no longer entwined with mine. I looked back to see Virginia chatting away with one of the paps.

"Are you Harry's latest girlfriend?" one pap screamed at her.

"Where did you and Harry meet?" another yelled.

"How long have you been dating Harry?" The last pap asked her.

Virginia was overwhelmed with all the questions but simply answered with, "I'm not dating Harry Styles, I'm just a friend of his. And Louis' wife." My eyes widened instantly, as did the paps'. I know she didn't understand how much media attention would be aimed at her since that last remark, but she was just being silly. I would have to explain that it's just an inside joke at our next interview.

I pulled Virginia away before the paps could ask her anymore questions and she quickly ducked into the limo.

.

Once we were at the ice cream shop near home, I had time to explain to the lads what had happened with the paps back at the restaurant. They were all going to love this, except for Liam, him being the concerned father-like figure of the band.

"Guys, you won't believe what happened at the restaurant." I shared.

"Please enlighten us Hazza!" Louis screamed playfully.

"Well, all the paps were asking Virginia if she and I were dating, and how we met. And Virginia just says that she's not dating me, but she is just a friend, and your wife Louis." Louis looked shocked but then have Virginia a high five for playing along with the joke. The rest of the lads had similar reactions, even Liam!

I looked over at Virginia and she was blushing crazily, all the attention was on her after all. "You look really cute when you blush by the way." I told her, and she did. She was gorgeous no matter what she was doing.

"Thanks Harry." And she blushed even more, if that was possible.

Yeah, I could get used to having her around. She was sweet, funny, good with all the lads, GORGEOUS BEYOND EXPLANATION, and she even knew how to deal with the paps! Damn, how did I get so lucky as to meet her? Now I just had to make her mine.

~~~~~~~~AUTHORS NOTE~~~~~~~~~~

Virginia is actually based on my friend, @Hazzas_lady
