Chapter 18: Perfect

*Harry's POV*

I took a final glance at myself in the bathroom mirror. I had a dress shirt and bow tie on. My hair flopped messily on my head, and if I didn't sound so stuck up, I would say I look pretty hot. My date with Maddy is today. To tell you the truth, I don't even know if its still going on. Maddy has been ignoring every single one of my texts and calls. I'm sure she still got them, so she knows what time m picking her up. But it may have been nice to know if we are on speaking terms, because it doesn't seem like we are.

I walk out of my flat, screaming goodbye to Louis, and get into my car. I spend the car ride to Maddy's house daydreaming and worrying. I didn't do anything to upset Maddy. At least I hope not. I haven't been seeing any other girls. So why is she ignoring me? What if I show up, and she doesn't want to go out with me? What if she got another boyfriend? Are we even a couple? I really like her, and she said she likes me but who knows?

By the time I pull into Maddy's driveway, I am freaking out inside. I take several deep breaths and walk up to the door. I knock.

After a few seconds of silence I begin to doubt. After that, I hyperventilate. Then my hands start shaking until I see Carrie's form trying to pull the door open. I exhale deeply.

"Hello, Harry." Carrie says. She seems so calm. Weird...

"Hello." I say politely.

"Maddy will be down in a bit. Please come in." She gives me a weird look. It almost looks smug. Then she walks away towards the kitchen. I stand inside the house by the front door. At least Maddy knew we had a date. I soon hear the clicking of heels, and I brace myself. Then I see her. She looks dazzling. She has a knee length, tight fitting blue dress. The blue is almost the same as her eyes. Se wears silver heels, and her hair falls in waves down her back. The make-up she is wearing makes her eyes pop, and I can't look away.

"You...look...beautiful..." I shake my head in disbelief.

She rolls her eyes at me. "Bye Mum!" She yells, and walks right out the front door. Since when did we go back to being hostile to each other? What did I do?

I walk outside, and find her waiting to unlock my car. I quickly do so, and she gets in. I follow her, and get into the drivers seat.

"Is there any reason you didn't respond to my texts or calls?" I ask before starting the engine.

She shrugs, "I was busy."

I nod, but that really hurts. She was too busy for me?

"Where are we going?" Maddy bugs me.

"It's a surprise." I tell her.

She groans, but doesn't respond further. We are quiet until we get there.

I had made reservations for the newest top five star restaurant in the London area. Maddy's mouth drops open. Ha.

"W-woah. We're eating..HERE?" She stutters.

"Where else would we eat?" I laugh.

"Umm...somewhere where I don't have to use the manners that I don't have."

"Only the best for you, Maddy."

Her face looks thoughtful, then turns guilty. She smiles and turns to open the door before stopping herself. She looks back at me expectantly. Yes! Victory! I slip out of my door and jog to her side. I open the door and hold out a hand which she graciously takes. I walk her inside the restaurant. She looks amazed when we walk inside.

"Reservation for Styles." I tell the host. He nods and walks us to a more private booth in the back. He hands us menus.

"Your server will be right with you Mr. Styles and Miss..." The host tries to remember a name.
