Fortunately Unfortunate - Harry Styles

28-Jumped the Gun

Harry's POV

I am so glad Elin remembered I wanted some alone time with Tiffany. I don't know what I wanted to come of this, but I had to be alone with her one more time like last night in the car. If I could drive her home again I would.

She breaks the silence "Well, thank you for trusting me with your number. You won't regret it"

"I am sure I won't." I mean that something about her makes me trust her. I'd trust her with my whole life it feels like. "You look beautiful by the way. I love the glitter, obviously" I say nodding over towards the outfit I had on tonight. She laughs and looks down, I hope I didn't make her feel awkward.

"Oh, thank you, yeah, it was kind of last minute since I wasn't expecting to get to go to two shows, but some guy got me tickets again" I love her sarcastic witty comments.

"Some guy huh? Must be pretty lame to get your tickets to a concert you've already seen" I play along.

"Super lame" she pretends to roll her eyes. Gosh, she's gorgeous.
"You were so great Harry, thank you again for giving me a second chance to see the entire show, sorry I uh-- ya know, passed out at the other one"

I could tell she was kind of trying to make light of the situation but I want her to know she never needs to apologize for something like that
"Never apologize for your health." I grab both her hands now. "In fact, although the circumstance was unfortunate, I am glad I got to meet you. You are sweet, funny, talented, and may I just say, gorgeous".

I want to kiss her so badly, but would it be too soon? I want her to know I have feelings for her. This is all so crazy, I've had quick flings, but I've never felt this way about someone I've just met so soon. Normally I wouldn't care so much about making a move, but this feels so delicate, I can't stop thinking about her.

Delicate point of view

"I am really glad I got to meet you too Harry, you uh, you definitely exceeded any expectations I may have had. I mean you're perfect.." I cut her off with an abrupt kiss.

I couldn't help it. Watching her ramble on trying to find the words, I probably shouldn't have..not here..not now..but it's too late, our lips are intertwined and my heart is beating faster and faster. I find my hands wrapping around her waist and her hands around my neck. I pull away briefly to look at her. She's looking down at the floor and then back at my lips, she pauses there biting her bottom lip before we make eye contact. I lean in to continue, wanting to taste those sweet lips again but she leans away.

"I'm sorry—" she breathes out. "I um—"

"No I'm sorry, I shouldn't have" I back away. She looks sad. I knew it was too soon.

"Harry...I loved every second of that, don't be sorry."
she looks down like she has more to say but doesn't know how to say it.

"You don't need to explain, it's okay. I enjoyed every moment too." I want to reassure her.

"I want to explain though. Here." She grabs my arm and sits me down next to her on the couch. I lay my hand on her thigh, rubbing my thumb back and forth.

I am a little nervous to hear what she has to say. I think about what I overheard outside my dressing room and wonder if it has something to do with this guy Rebecca seemed to dislike.

"I like you, Harry, a lot. I know we just met but every moment we've spent talking feels like I could talk to you forever. But—"

I look down, I don't know if I want to hear the rest f that sentence.

"--I don't want to mess anything up" I look at her and notice she is fiddling with her hands. I want to hold them again, maybe it would bring her comfort, but she already pulled away from our kiss, maybe she just isn't ready.

"How so?" I don't think I understand what there is to mess up...I mean sure I love talking with her and now kissing her, but we have only just met, there isn't much to mess up just yet.

"I don't know...like your tour or something I guess" She shrugs her shoulders and I can tell that's not the main reason. I decide not to press further. Regardless, I want her to know I like her and would love for her to come again tomorrow night.

"I get it, look, we don't have to take this any further, and I apologize if I jumped the gun a little bit, but I do know that I really like you and I would love to continue to get to know you and just see where this takes us if anywhere."

"Don't apologize, I would love that actually, thank you." I can tell she is happy with that idea as she has her beautiful smile back again; she is still nervous, but I am glad I didn't screw it up too badly.

"I actually wanted to ask, would you be willing to work tomorrow night for my last show in LA? I will pay you of course, I just really loved the photos you've taken and my current photographer, Lloyd, wasn't able to make it to the LA shows, I just had whoever The Forum could find, but I would prefer your work over some random guy any day."

"Harry, are you sure? I mean I was just messing around tonight, I don't want you to be disappointed if they don't turn out the same way"

"You said it yourself, that was just your small digital camera, tomorrow night you could bring your whole set up, take practice shots during the sound check, whatever you need. I can't imagine me not loving them." I really just want an excuse to see her for my last show in LA. Of course, I love her work, seeing her is just a bonus. A big bonus.
