The Today Show

AN: hi bubs, outfits as described in this chapter ^^^

-

After hair and makeup, they dressed me in Gucci, of course. It was an outfit that screamed it was from the brand. It was a simple lace corset, similar to the one I wore the other day, with a pair of bright yellow high-waisted pants. It was sexy but still classy. 

Honestly, something Harry might wear as well - I think wistfully.

They put Harry in a simpler outfit, his dark skinnies, boots, a plain black tee, and a silky bomber jacket that looked somewhat vintage. His hair lays in his normal, perfect brunette curls that didn't need anything but a brush and a little gel.

It was an ordeal to get out of the car. Of course, The Today Show studio was right in the middle of the city and there were fans for blocks waiting. It was actually scary how the fans and paparazzi were banging on the windows with their fists. Jay was blaring the horn, unable to move as people blocked the car.

Harry could sense my anxiety, pulling me quickly through the crowds at the studio, refusing to stop for autographs and signatures. Which, I was upset that I couldn't meet some of my fans but it was a media circus out there and it didn't even seem safe. The polices struggling to contain people in the barricades.

At some point, Harry would have to leave to go to his soundcheck before his performance. Until then, he was hanging around the studio, Jeff - who had Cam following his every move- was pushing for Harry to be seen with me here.

It's a while until the filming begun, Harry bullshitting with some of the crew, as I eat some fruit at the service table with Presley.

"The premiere was amazing, yeah?" He smiles after chewing a piece of bagel.

"It was surreal, I'm just - I mean I thought the movie would do well. I just didn't know it would do this well," I laugh brightly in agreement.

"Listen, I'm having a party tonight. Would you think about coming?" He asks, a slight nervousness in his speech.

"Yeah, I don't see why not. Can my friend tag along?" I ask Cam, knowing I'd already made plans with Tia - but she loves a good party.

"Sure! I can't believe you actually said yes! It-" Presley stammers, "I'm just, can't- It's going to be a lot of fun!"

I raise my eyebrows, surprised by his reaction to my agreement to come. It was like he was in disbelief. I mean, we'd never hung out anywhere beside work but it wasn't like I was a snob. We had always been friendly.

I could sense that Presley had developed a little crush on me during filming. But with the obvious, aggressive presence of Harry, I doubt he'd think of this as anything other than friendly. I hope Presley didn't have a death wish.

"What fun am I missing out on?" Harry interrupts, sliding next to me, pointedly putting a hand on the small of my back and tugging me into his side.

"Presley invited Tia and I to a party tonight," I told him. I would assume he wouldn't care because he had made plans with a few record label friends to go out to a concert at Madison Square Garden.

"Oh. You throw a good party, d'ya?" Harry hums, his voice on the side of being teasingly rude. His hand brushing over the curve of my bum before sliding back up in a display much too intimate for public.

It was crazy the amount of presence and dominance he demanded. Even in this situation with my co-star, it was blatantly obvious who the alpha male was. Harry always holds himself so broad and tall around others.
