Harry pulled up under the awning in his Range Rover he parked someone opened Alexis's door helping her out
Harry got out passing his keys to the valet who opened his door for him he stepped around to the trunk Alexis was helping the bellhop get bags
She was in black jeans and a nice causal blouse but it was sheer so she wore a white tank top under it with chunky black heels
Harry was in a brown Chanel suit because there was a meeting later this afternoon ,if there wasn't he'd be more casual as well
Harry walked over and grabbed Alexis's hand "come on he's got it" he mumbled walking them inside
Alexis flicked her head to one side trying to get her bangs out from her eyes
Harry had his hair tied up in a bun, he'll be taking it back down for the meeting
He stopped at the front desk but he didn't let Alexis's hand go "Styles" he stated
"Alrighty ID please" the woman hummed Harry took his hand back reaching into his jacket pocket pulling out his wallet sliding his ID to the woman "oh you're here for the big conference?" she slid his ID back
"Yes" he said slipping his wallet back into his jacket she handed him 2 key cards
"You'll need this card for the pool, gym, and beach access as well your dinner is planned for tonight no worries, Have a nice stay"
Harry furrowed his eyebrows checking the cards seeing they were both for the same room "I should have 2 separate rooms under my name"
The woman clicked around and shook her head "Uh no sir just one penthouse suite"
"Alright then I need to get another penthouse suite for the duration of my stay" he went to pull out his wallet again
"I'm sorry sir all the penthouse suites are booked solid throughout your stay" she sounded apologetic
Harry sighed heavily "I specifically requested that your boss have 2 rooms under my name I told him I'd be bringing my personal assistant, is there any other guest attending the conference who brought an assistant?"
He wanted to know if this was deliberate
She bit her lip "I'm not sure sir... I'm sorry" she was squirming under his intense glare
Harry held up a hand "It's not you, I need another room on that floor then" he opened his wallet to grab his black card ready to pay
"There... isn't anything free... on that floor..." she was barely talking over a whisper
Harry pinched the bridge of his nose "the floor below then"
She searched and murmured "N-Nothing"
He slammed a hand down on the marble counter "that's a bloody fuckin' joke she is not staying by herself that far away from me it isn't safe" he groaned "give me a downgrade then I want my room next to hers I don't care what floor"
"I'll have to call my boss-"
Alexis stepped up "Look if it's okay with you Mr.Styles I'm not opposed to sharing a room"
"This shit is laughable totally fuckin' absurd I-" Harry took a deep breath looking toward Alexis "I didn't want to make you share a room with me but I don't feel comfortable having you stay so far from me"
"Thank you I appreciate you looking out for my safety because you're right I would feel rather uncomfortable being far from you, I don't mind if we share a room" she smiled
He nodded putting his card and wallet away walking off "have a good day!" Alexis waved to the woman still nervously standing behind the counter she caught up with him and got in the elevator
"I swear it's in one ear and out the other with these pricks" he growled "you get money n lose all manners"
Alexis frowned "you still have manners"
He looked down at her "I wasn't raised with money" he realized that was too vague and she'd ask more questions "my father was rich but he didn't take care of me" he looked back at the glossy metallic doors "I hate snobby silver spoon d*ckheads"
The doors opened he stepped out his long strides brought him down the hall in a few seconds it hit him how fast he was going so he stopped to let Alexis catch up but she ended up gliding passed him and turning to check on him "sir?"
He ended up following behind her, for being 5'6 she walked fast "normally people can't keep up with me" he commented
"My father was 6'4" she hummed "I learned to keep up with him"
He noticed she said 'was' "your father... he passed away?"
"Yes about a year n half ago now" she got to the door turning to look at him so he could open the door
"What happened... if you don't mind me asking?" He paused in front of the door
"He had complications after a heart surgery got an infection... I took care of him almost a whole year till he passed" her face was stern and placid but her tone of voice held all the emotion she couldn't hide
"I'm so sorry"
"It's been awhile"
He nodded and opened the door their bags were out the floor by the back of the sofa "you have got to get proper luggage" Harry commented changing subject
"What's wrong with my bags?" She pouted closing the door behind her
"Exactly that... it's bags" she had the same jansport bookbag as last trip, a Nike gym bag, and a zip up tote bag
"Not all of us can afford Gucci luggage sir" she laughed
"No? then I'm not paying you enough" he chuckled lightly they brought their bags into the bedroom it was one big king sized bed he started to unpack his clothes and other things (like his cologne and deodorant) while Alexis just took out a few key items (her makeup, bathroom items, and brush) leaving the rest in her bags
"I'll take the sofa" Harry said setting his suitcase down on the floor
She rolled her eyes "Mr.Styles It's a king size bed we can share"
He shook his head "I don't want to make you feel-"
She cut him short "I feel safe around you and I trust you won't snake a hand in my shorts while I'm sleeping, chivalry is not dead with you sir but please don't be outrageous there's room for 4 people in this bed" she laughed
He raised his eyebrows laughing at her bizarre scenario "rest assured somnophilia is not my thing..."
She cocked an eyebrow "did you just know that off the top of your head?"
He nodded "As a child ,and well into my teenage years, I read incessantly it's not my fault my father kept some... distasteful and questionable books in his library"
She nodded "you are more and more interesting everyday sir" she sat in bed "you are almost as interesting as you are handsome" she teased
"You're almost as funny as you are beautiful... almost" he mocked
