I looked at mom worriedly, "Are you alright?"

she looked back at me as she slighty smiled, "The past few days didn't turn out well." She paused as she smiles widely.

"But it turned out great when you came."  She added.

"Oh, mom..." I sat beside her as I give her a tight hug.  "I miss you so much." her familiar rose scent entered my nostrils.

"I miss you more, sweetheart." She softly whispered stroking my hair up and down.

I miss these kinds of moment...

Suddenly we heard footsteps and as we looked, it was Harry wide-eyed.

"I'm sorry.." He said as he turned his back going back to where he was awhile ago.

"Come over here." Mom said as I shifted in to an indian sit.

Harry hesitated but do as what he was told. My mom gestured him to sit down as she smiled.

"So you're a friend of my daughter?" She says starting the conversation.

I looked at him as he smiled lightly,"Yes. I've seen her moved in a week ago."

"Oh, you're neighbors?" My mom asked wide-eyed. Harry nodded as he fumbled his fingers.

I'm amused at this sight since I'm not used seeing this side of Harry. The Bashfully adorable side.

My mom beamed as she clasped her hands together,"That's great! Well, you two can hang out on weekends and be the best of friends."

"She's my bestfriend." Harry teasingly said as he started nudging my arm.

I laughed lightly,"Well, I pretty much guess you confounded bestfriends with enemies." I teased.

"Mrs. Sanders, I'm afraid your daughter is bullying me." Harry spoke to my mom with mock sadness.

I gently slapped his arm,"Quit acting!" I giggled.

He smiled as he stood up,"Might as well take a walk. I'll see you later, Mrs. and Ms. Sanders." He smiles as he walk towards the door. A flow of sadness washed over me as I watch him leave.

My mom gently poked my thigh as she obviously noticed my face expression,"Is something wrong?" she asks.

I look at her trying to hide how embarassed I am,"Nothing." I said looking down.

"Come on, dear. I'm your mother and you can always open up to me."

I slowly looked up at her as I smiled,"I'm still not sure about the things I'm feeling right now." I paused.

I looked back at the door where Harry walked out earlier, "But someday, I will."

*Harry's POV*

I walked down the street turning left from right looking around Alison's city. It is indeed a peaceful place. As I turned right, I came across a beautiful flower shop. They displayed all of the finest flowers in town. Daisies, tulips, roses etc.

A smile made their way towards my face as I think of Alison.

Could my feelings for her real? last week I made myself believe that I love her but could it be true?

Without my conciousness, I grabbed the most expensive bouquet heading towards the cashier with great urgency. As I was about to pay, the old woman looked at me with a warm smile on her face.

"You have the same choice with my husband." She paused as if she remembered something that is heart melting.

"50 years ago, he gave me the same bouquet you are holding right now. We entitled that as the bouquet of pure love by the time we got married. I hope you give that to someone really special and amazing. Oh, I'm talking too much." She chuckled.

"Enjoy your day, young man." She added.

"She is indeed special." I said before leaving the shop. I gulped as I analyze the words that escaped through my mouth.

Yes, I'm sure of it. I really love Alison. She is a beautiful woman with an amazing personality and being with her makes everything sensible. She's the girl I've been waiting for...

My heart raced as I headed back to Alison's house.

*Alison's POV*

"I'll just take a nap, dear." My mom said as she stood up stretching.

"Sure." I replied still facing the window. 

Where can Harry possibly be?
He still hasn't returned for about an hour and I'm starting to worry as time passes by. Could he be lost?

I stood up ready to find him but he was already knocking on our door as I was about to open it.

"Sorry, I took so long." He said nervously.

"It's alright. Uhh, what are you hiding behind your back?" I asked him in a confused tone.

He lifted up a beautiful bouquet as I stared at it in awe, gaping my mouth.

"It's beautiful." I said but it came out more like a whisper.

"It's um.. well..." He stuttered but I cut him off by giving him a hug. He was shocked by my gesture but he sooner relaxed as he hugged me back.

"Thank you." I said as I stepped back. I looked back at the flowers in his hands with great admiration. He shyly grins, giving me the bouquet.

I gave him a meaningful sigh as I accept his surprisingly beautiful present.

"I came across this flower shop and thought maybe I could buy you a flower." He says.

"Why so?" I ask taunting him teasingly.

"The lady told me to give it to someone very special." After he said those words, he immediately gulped wide-eyed.

I chuckled as he quickly added,"I thought you could be a very special... friend."

"Alright." I turned around walking my way towards the kitchen to find a vase.

I found an antique looking glass jar as I filled it with water. Placing the flowers carefully, I swiftly arranged it in the middle of our dining table.

"Isn't it wonderful?" I ask facing him. I didn't realized his face was only inches away from mine as I quickly turned away. A deep shade of red immediately covered my entire face.

"It's beautiful." He commented.

I nodded in agreement.

"So... are you ready to head back in California?" He asks.

"Tomorrow morning, we will head back. I'll tell my mom as soon as she wakes up." I confirmed.

Harry gave me a slight nod,"I'll start arranging our things."

"That'll be great. Thanks." I smiled.
