Chapter 5: A Date with Harry Styles

Annie’s POV

        Niall was the only one awake after the movie(s), so he drove me home at three in the morning after we completed our 4th movie, including Paranormal Activity 3, Pitch Perfect, Love Actually (Harry’s favorite), and The Hangover. It was an awkward car ride, Niall and I didn’t really speak until we were in front of my house and I said thank you.

        I walked into the house, whisking up the stairs like a hopeless romantic from a movie, Harry was just so perfect.

Harry’s POV

        “Alright lads, up to bed.” Niall announced as he turned on all of the lights making my eyes squint. I looked at my phone, holy crap it was 3:30 in the morning! Wait, where’s Annie? Damn it, I guess I just ruined my chances with her, I left her awake, and had Niall drive her home, I’m so inconsiderate!

        Maybe not, calm down Hazza, just apologize and maybe she will forgive you. I had this crazy idea of asking Annie to be my girlfriend tomorrow at dinner, and I know it was soon, but I fancied her so much. Annie was just so perfect.

Zayn’s POV

        Come on Zayn, just click it, I thought looking at Annie’s contact in my phone. I needed to make my move and quick; I couldn’t let Annie fall for Harry.

“riiiiing, riiiing”, the dull tone of the ring filled my ear when I was waiting for Annie to answer the phone, “Hello?”, Annie’s voice helped me let out a sigh of relief, “Hey Annie, its Zayn.” I said, trying to sound make a deep, raspy sound with my voice, like Harry, “Oh Hey Zayn, are you okay? You sound like you have a cold.” She sounded concerned, I was glad we were talking on the phone because I was blushing like crazy. I cleared my throat and apologized, “Erm, yeah, sorry I’m fine. But anyway, I was wondering if maybe you wanted to go to a movie with me tonight, just because we haven’t hung out, just you and me in a while.” I said like it was all one word, She hesitated to talk, Oh no! It was too much, now she felt awkward and she hated me. But I wasn’t that, it was something much worse. “Erm, I would love to, but I kinda already have plans to go to dinner with Harry tonight...” She trailed off, I wanted to scream, but couldn’t Annie would think I’m a complete psycho. So I played it cool, like I didn’t care. “Oh, yeah sorry, another time.” I told her with a happy voice, but I was completely beaten inside.

Harry’s POV

As I prepared for dinner my with Annie, I was thinking about how I was going to ask her to be my girlfriend. I had so many situations planned out in my head that I felt like an actor trying to learn his lines on a Broadway musical. We were going to Nando’s, a nice restaurant with great chicken.

        I was wearing dark jeans, brown shoes, a blue navy jacket, with a plaid button-up underneath. I couldn’t wait to see her, she was so beautiful I was having a hard time standing the wait.

Annie’s POV

        “UGH! Give me something to wear!” I yelled at my closet, hoping that it would just spit out the perfect outfit.  I was really nervous for this date with Harry. He told me to be prepared, just in case we ended up in the tabloids. I was freaked!

        I finally found an outfit, I was wearing gray skirt with a bow in the front, black pumps, a turtle green cami, a black cardigan, and my hair was straightened, I looked good.

        “Ding Dong!” the doorbell rang, I think I almost had a heart attack.

        I heard Harry and my mum making small talk in the kitchen while I grabbed my handbag.

My eyes lit up when I saw him.

Harry’s POV     

 I arrived at her flat a little early so she was still getting ready when I got there, but she was worth the wait.

When she started walking down the steps, I immediately started blushing, I wanted to look away so she wouldn’t see me so embarrassed, but I couldn’t take my eyes off her.

Her mum wished us a good time and I promised her father she would be back by 12:30.

Annie’s POV

We walked outside to his sports car, (which looked very expensive) and he opened my door for me. As we drove, we talked about his tour, the x factor, and his life before being famous. It was interesting, but he just talked the whole time, I never got a chance to say anything.

When we arrived at the restaurant, it was Nandos, yay!  I thought sarcastically, we had Nandos take out least twice a week, it was my dad’s favorite.

He had already made the reservation, so I didn’t want to be a brat and make him go somewhere else, it was his date too.

When we sat down he just continued on his monologue about himself. And I quietly listened.

After the food came I decided to say something. “Harry? I was wondering if we could talk about something else for a little while. Your story is interesting, but I would rather talk about things we have in common.”

His face went from cocky and happy, to furious and embarrassed in a split second.

Harry’s POV

How rude?! I’m in the middle of talking and you interrupt me to ask me to talk about something else?

I was trying to keep my cool in this awkward situation but I eventually just blew my top.

“Annie?! I was in the middle of talking!”  I yelled at from across the table. I was telling her something that she told me she wanted to hear but decided she was getting bored with it!

Annie’s POV

After he finished yelling at me, I quickly snapped back, “Well I’m sorry but the only thing I’ve said the whole night is can I have the rosemary chicken please!”

He raised his voice again, “Maybe this was a bad idea!” I agreed “Fine! I’ll take a cab home!”  And that’s when I noticed the camera’s I covered my face and ran out. I was probably going to be on the cover of every tabloid in England.

As I stepped into the cabby and told the driver where my house was, I started sobbing, what I thought was going to be the perfect date had been completely ruined.
