Katrina's pov
After dinner, Harry and I sat up on my balcony. The air was cool and the sun was about to set. It was getting dark, only shadows visible. All the little shops around us started to close so the air smelled fresh, not like like bread and coffee like during the day.

"I never thought a person could have so many embarrassing stories." He laughed.

"Which is why I brought up here and away from my aunt." I replied.

"You'd think that someone who planned their life would avoid embarrassing moments."

"Nope. I'm just so good at embarrassing myself I don't even have to plan for it." I giggled.

"Now that you don't have your planner anymore I don't know what's going on to happen." He replied.

"We'll just have to wait and see." I shrugged.

"You know I felt really bad once you walked away that day."

"Good. You really pissed me off, but I'm glad you came back for me." I smiled.

"Well I wouldn't have gotten arrested if I came back for you so I'm not sure I could say the same." He joked. I smacked him on the arm, making him jump.

"Oh thanks. Nice to know this feeling flows both ways." I said sarcastically. "I take it back."

"I was kidding."

"You know what this whole thing was your fault. If you paid attention to where you were going at the Eiffel Tower you never would have knocked me down." I giggled, recalling how we met.

"As I recall, you were in my way. You just came out of nowhere." He argued, trying to hold back his laugh but failing.

"Harry, I stayed in one spot. I was posing for a picture." I laughed even harder.

"That's not the way I remember it." He shook his head.

"Ok believe what you want." I chuckled.

"So how's Paris now?" He turned to me. I had forgotten that I didn't want to be here at first and now I can't imagine why and it's all because of him.

"If anything you made it worse." I joked. His jaw dropped and I started laughing, leaning into him to keep me up.

"I'm kidding. I'm loving it. Thanks to you I wouldn't want to be anywhere else." I replied seriously this time.

"Ok you had me worried there for a second."

"You have nothing to worry about." I assured him. I sat closer to him, kissing him on his cheek.

"Are you still scared?" He asked keeping me close.

"Not in the same way." At first I was scared of just being with him in this way. I didn't know what I was diving into which is why I wanted to take it slow, but being with Harry is like going 100 miles per hour and it isn't easy to step back and think about things. I've been learning how to be myself around him so I'm not scared of being with him anymore. If anything all I ever wanted to do is be with him. I'm just scared of what comes after.

"What do you mean?" He furrowed his eye brows. I took a deep breath trying to find my words.

"We live in completely different worlds and now I'm just scared of what happens after Paris. What are we going to do now that we're together? Does that make sense? I'm just scared that I won't be what you want or I won't be able to fit in and you might leave." I said, looking down. I couldn't look at him at the moment.

"I can't promise that everything will be ok all the time or that we're always going to get what we want in this relationship." With a finger he tilted my chin up so I would look at him and his eyes on mine made me shiver a little. "But I will never let you go without a fight. Just enjoy the moment and then the future won't seem so scary." He smiled down at me.

When people said Harry Styles was deep they weren't kidding. I was speechless.

"How do you always know what to say? It really amazes me." I smiled back.

"I'm in a band. I write words for a living." He chuckled. I threw my hands up making him laugh even harder.

"That's not fair you know. You have the power of words and making everything seem ok and all I'm good at is being clumsy. " I huffed.

"No you do so much more than that, you have no idea. You're perfect just the way you are."

"Cool, I just wanted to hear you say it." I joked.

"Wow." He rolled his eyes playfully.

"I'm kidding. I will always be thankful." I rested my head on his shoulder. It didn't matter if we were only together for a couple weeks or a couple decades, I would always be thankful for him and everything he did.

THOSE HARRY FEELS THOUGH. God, writing this made me want a Harry Styles. Where can I get one? Please don't hesitate to comment or vote. Love you guys.
