Over A Cup Of Coffee (A One Direction Fan Fiction)

Chapter 5: The Flirt

Bethany just sat there, mouth slightly open, and eyes slightly popped out. Harry just sat there and laughed.

"Wait .........  w - what?!?!?.."

Harry just laughed even more.

"Are you .... are you .. are y ... wait ... Are you serious?" Bethany stuttered out. She could not believe she was sitting right in front of HARRY FREAKING STYLES!

The boy just nodded his head. "Yep! That's me!"

Bethany didn't know what to say. She was so shocked and surprised that words would not even process to her own mind.

"Well .." Bethany started to say

".. you sure as hell surprised me there!" Bethany smiled.

They both laughed.

"I .. I just ... I don't mean to sound like one of those crazy fangirls but I was a HUGE fan of One Direction when I was younger! hahaha." Bethany stated.

"Oh really?" said a surprised Harry.

Bethany nodded her head.

"Yeah. Both my friend Chelsea and I loved you guys."

"Wait. Loved? Why did you stop?" Harry said, with a slight look of sadness forming on his face.

...That look hit Bethany's heart like a thousand knives. 

"No! We never stopped liking your music. It's just that ... College started to get in the way of our personal lives so much that we barely even had time to hang out together anymore ..... even though we went to the same school." Bethany stated, truthfully.

"Oh." Harry said with a look of relief on his face.

They both sat there for a few minutes, thinking about what was just said, when Bethany looked at the clock on the wall and realized that she had to get home. Bethany took out her phone and realized that she had 5 missed calls, 5 new voice mails, and about a billion text messages .... all from Chelsea.

"Crap! I forgot what time it was! I didn't realize it was this late already!" Bethany yelled as she ran around frantically, gathering up all of her things.

Harry, noticing something was wrong, jumped up and grabbed his coat. He handed Bethany his money for the bill, and a tip.

"What's wrong?" he asked.

"Chelsea, that friend that I told you about, is sharing an apartment here with me in London. She's freaking out because I'm supposed to be home by now, and I have a half hour walk back to the apartment!" Bethany said as she threw on her fall jacket, and shut off all of the lights.

"Oh." Harry said again as he was thinking of something for a moment.

"If .. you want .. I could drive you home." Harry said, offering his car to Bethany. It was cold out. He did not want her walking home alone on the streets of London for that long, and especially at night.

Bethany started to smile at the sweet gesture.

"That's sweet. But really. It's fine. And plus, when I call Chelsea, I know she will be screaming at me and I don't want to put you through that." Bethany stated as she locked the door.

"Look. I do not want you walking alone at this time of night, and in this terrible weather. Trust me when I say that London is a completely different city in the day than it is at night." And he knew it too. For some reason, he knew that if he let her walk home by herself and if something bad had happened to her, he would never be able to live with himself again knowing that he let her get hurt. He just couldn't stand that.

"And plus, with a girl as good looking as you, walking all her by herself at night, something bad could happen to you." Harry said intently as he look at her with those amazing eyes of his "And I could never live with myself if that ever happened."

Bethany had trouble catching her breath for a moment. He was just so sexy .... and even sexier in person. Wait a minute! Did HE just call HER good looking? She knew she wasn't bad looking, but she also felt that she wasn't the most attractive girl out there as well. But when Harry called her "good looking", she almost felt weak in the knees. It should be considered illegal to be sexy like that.

Finally composing herself, she was able to talk.

She flipped her hair back. "Are you sure?" she asked. "I don't want to be any trouble for you." She smiled.

"Nah. Trust me. That's perfectly fine." Harry smiled as he walked her to his car.

He opened the door to the left side of the car just so she could get in, and then walked around to the right side of the car. Bethany completely forgot that in Europe, they drive on the opposite side of the car than they do in America. That felt a little bit weird to Bethany because she was so used to cars being the opposite way.

Bethany looked over at Harry, and he could see that this felt a little bit weird for her. "Don't worry babe. I'm a good boy .. and a good driver. I promise." he said with a flirty smile. They were already driving.

Bethany leaned over towards him and said "Well, the first thing Mr. Styles .... I'm not too sure about. And the second thing, Mr. Styles? ... Well ... I'm not too sure about that one either." Bethany smiled slightly and winked ( ;D ) as she leaned back over to her side of the car.

Harry laughed just a little bit. *Finally! Someone who just as flirty as he was!* he thought. All he knew was that he had to get this girl's phone number sometime soon before he went back on tour with the guys.
