US - Harry Styles

chapter 8

Tilda.

To say i was nervous for the MET was an understatement. Not only would i be going for the first time but i will be walking with the Austin Butler. But really the biggest reason i am nervous is because Harry is going to be there.

"Hey" Austin snapped me out of my thought's as he put his hand on my hand while we were sitting in the car "Just breathe" he whispered and smiled at me. i smiled and nodded back.

Austin and I had met up a few time's, just to get to know each other and although us being set up for the Met is only a one time thing, we both agreed that we would like to continue to see each other afterwards. It excites me, moving on. Austin is a great guy and he does make me happy, so far.

I move my other hand on top of his and squeeze it lightly. then the driver inform's us that we have arrived. Someone open's the door.

"You ready?" Austin asks as he tuck's a piece of hair behind my ear. "as ready as i'll ever be" i giggled. he smiled in return then leant forward and gave me a kiss on the cheek. My whole entire body went warm underneath his gentle touch. Austin and I hadn't kissed yet, we were taking it slow. But little thing's like that are important to me. Austin got out of the car, straightened out his suit, then reached his hand out for me to grab. As soon as i step out the camera's start flashing and the screaming of the fan's on the street start. I held onto Austin's hand tighter, he then looked at me with the most gorgeous eye's, as if to tell me everything is going to be okay. He leant over and kissed the side of my head. then we begin to walk.

Harry.

The met gala. An occasion such as this does excite me but it is hard to come to these thing's alone. especially when there are some many couple's around you.

As i hope out of the car, i start to wave to fan's on the street as i walk toward's the door to get in line for photo's. I'm behind a couple, great.

She has long brown hair in a dress i can only believe to be Gucci. Good taste. And her partner, dusty blonde hair in a black suit, classy but simple. They seem to complement each other well. I can tell she is nervous as i see her shoulder's rise and fall from breathing really fast, but he seem's to be doing a good job at calming her down. Watching this couple made me regret not bringing Olivia, I could have her with me to support me, she wanted to but i told her i would be fine.

The real reason is because I knew Tilda would be here tonight and I didn't want her running into me with Olivia when she wouldn't have a date of her own.

I am snapped out of my thoughts when the couple in front of me are called to walk. i watch them as they walk hand in hand towards the long carpet covered with photographers each side. then when they turn to the side to take some photos my jaw drops. i realised i had reacted to what i was seeing quite obviously so i quickly fixed my face back to neutral.

In front of me stood Tilda and Austin. one of my friends with my ex girlfriend. and she looks, happy? How did i not even know she was seeing someone? well actually why would i know, she doesn't talk to me, she blocked me, and this is probably why.

Tilda.

Austin and i are currently taking photos. Then we are ushered towards an interview.

"hello hello you two" this young girl about my age from vogue says to us as we walk up, both Austin and i smile and say hello back. i notice her eyes wandering Austin's body, i mentally scoff, i'm standing right here and she couldn't be making it any more obvious. my arm is wrapped around austin's back and subconsciously i grab him tighter at the sight of this girl and after i do that i feel him do the same.
