[DISCONTINUED] It Started as a Stunt ~a Harry Styles fanfiction

Don't Fall in Love

"Dakota, you have a huge responsibility with this deal. As you know, Harry is the most popular member of One Direction. If the fans don't like you, we could possibly lose big portions of money." Simon sat back in his chair at the long table. We had all sat down to discuss the "deal". I was currently sitting next to Harry facing Rachel and Simon. I occasionally looked at Harry who would look away when I looked and vice versa. I can't help that I thought he was incredibly cute. His eyebrows were knitted together and he stared at Simon who was rambling on about how serious this deal was for One Direction's career. I honestly don't think that I can really help what One Direction fans thought of me. I was going for the be myself and hope I'm accepted method. I laughed and and continued to listen to Simon. "Now we are obviously not forcing you two into a relationship. It's a fake relationship. Now I will say this once and only. Be wise with who you tell about this deal. It could be very damaging to your careers." Rachel nodded and added on "A tip of advice for both of you, since this deal lasts one year and one year only, it would be easier to play your roles if you two get to know each other and be friends." Simon quickly butted in and stated "But listen, this is one of the essential parts of the deal, just don't and I repeat don't fall in love. It will make it hard on both of your lives. Trust me." I sensed something dark in the way he said that but I shrugged it off and continued listening."Now Simon and I have some buisness to discuss so you two are free to spend some time together and get to know he each other." Rachel said while she scurried up a few papers lying freely on the desk. She winked at me quickly before getting up and following Simon out of the door. Harry smiled at the ground shyly before looking up at me and said "Why don't we go take a walk and get some fresh air?" He held out his hand for me to take. I smiled sheepishly and placed me hand in his as I felt a weird tingly sensation travel slowly up my arm and through my body.

As soon as he pushed the door open, a gust of cool wind instantly hit us. Goose bumps trailed on my arms as to I was wearing a strapless tank top. If I'd known that I would have been meeting Harry today I would have dressed a bit nicer. Ehh whatever. I wish had brought a jacket though it was absolutely freezing. Harry seemed to notice that I was shivering and started to take off his jacket. "Harry you don't have to-" he cut me off before I could finish and said "It is my duty as your boyfriend to make sure you are warm" He winked and I giggled like an idiot. He used quatations when he said boyfriend but it was still sweet as hell. I slipped on his jacket and was soon enveloped in warmth. We started strolling through past the busy streets of London, into a park area full of trees with snowy tips. England was absouletly breath-taking.

"Tell me a little about yourself" He said while rubbing his hands together for warmth. "Like what?" I asked quietly. "How about I ask you a question and you ask me one back. Then we repeat.". "Sounds good to me" I replied. "Ok me first, what's your favorite color?" I pondered that question and decided. "I'd say gray." he laughed "Gray? that's such a dull color for a pretty, bright girl like you." I blushed and said "Not that dull gray. Gray like the color right before the sun rises and all the colors are merging together over the horizon." he looked at me so intently and laughed "What?" I asked defenselessly. "That was just so deep" he replied. "Well what's your favorite color Mr. Styles?" I said sarcastically."I'd say blue". he said flatly. " Blue? Do you have a preference? What about baby blue like the color of the sky on a sunny afternoon or navy blue like the color of the waves at that crash on the shore at night?"  he chuckled and responded "Just Blue" I laughed and we talked and talked for what felt like hours. When it was just getting dark, we started to walk back when it started snowing. "Hey its snowing!" I smiled widely. His eyes twinkled in delight as he watched me giggle and enjoy the snow like a little kid on Christmas morning. I noticed his cheeks getting red from the cold. "Do you want your coat back?" I asked worried. "No, its fine" he lied. "We can share it" I offered as the snowflakes fell softly on his curls. "Why not?" he laughed cutely. I removed my arms from one of the sleeves and tried to put it over Harry's shoulder. I failed miserably and he just smiled at me. "I've got a better idea." he stated before bending down and adding, "Hop on." I jumped on his back while he wrapped his strong arms under my legs. I tied the arms of his jacket around his neck while the body of the coat layed  warmly on my back. I latched my arms under his arms and around his chest. "My mum lives right near the lake where you can perfectly see the sun rising very early in the morning. I was w-wondering if you wanted to get up early and meet me there tomorrow morning?" He stuttered out. "I would love that." I grinned. I laid my cheek on his head while the snow fell softly down on the dark streets of London. This moment was perfect.
