Chapter 45

HARRY'S POV

We had finally arrived at our destination and I couldn't wait to show Tash. I stepped out of the car then jogged round to her side to open the door for her.

"Thank you" She gave me a warm smile, "So where are we?"

She looked around at the muddy grassland and then back at me with a puzzled look on her face.

"Harry this is nice but it's not exactly the perfect weather for another picnic"

"Turn around" I smirked.

"Wha-"

"Just turn around" I grabbed her shoulders and moved her to face the mud track and garage behind us.

"Oh my god, Harry are we going quad biking?" Her eyes lit up with excitement.

"Yes, but I'm pretty sure I'm going to be terrible at this so you better not make fun of me" I laughed and led her into the garage.

We met with the instructor who had booked a private session for us so we wouldn't be bothered by anyone else. He went through the safety rules before handing us our kit. I couldn't help but watch Tash as she looked around the garage at all of the pictures and trophies around us. She had always loved thrill activities like this and I was pretty proud of myself for picking this over a restaurant. She collected her jacket and helmet from the instructor than headed back to me.

"Ah so this is why you picked the leather jacket" Tash giggled as she approached me.

"Yeah I've got to look the part don't I?" I smiled back.

Tash zipped up her jacket and lifted the helmet over her head before I stopped her. I pulled the helmet out of her hands and placed it on the bench next to us. She looked up at me and opened her mouth, parting her plump lips but before she could speak, I dipped my head down so my lips could meet hers.

Almost instantly her hands rose to grip my hips, something she hadn't done before but I wasn't complaining. I opened my eyes to see the instructor nod at me then walk outside, finally giving me some alone time with Tash. Once he had gone I focused all my attention on the girl in front of me. I pulled away from her lips and looked her in the eye.

"What was that?" She whispered, a blush creeping up her neck.

"This session is about two hours and once you have that helmet on we've got to get on those bikes. I don't think I can stay away from you for that long" I explained.

She smiled the leaned further into me. I pushed my lips back against hers, relishing the way they felt against me.

My lips moulded against hers and I traced my tongue along her lips waiting for access. Once she had realised what I was doing she parted her lips to allow my tongue to slip in and massage against hers. Her hands travelled up my sides before moving to my chest and I pulled her in by her waist to close any more space between us.

Our bodies were now pressed against each over in the most delicious way and I could already feel myself getting worked up. She pulled away only to reattach her lips to the base of my jaw. Her bold actions took me by surprise and I felt myself shudder as she moved her lips against my skin. Tash reached up to pull my head down closer to hers and pressed another soft kiss to my lips before pulling away, leaving me slightly out of breath. She grabbed my hand and the two of us went to join the instructor outside.

...

It was almost nine o'clock by the time we had returned the kit to the instructor. Tash had managed to grasp the steering part but couldn't control the pedals. I, on the other hand, was completely hopeless at getting the bike to move where I wanted to. Despite how bad we were at it, all we did was laugh at each other and enjoy each other's company.

The sun was slowly setting and the morning breeze had disappeared. It was like fate was helping me, making sure I didn't back out. We had been strolling down by the forest that was a little way away from where I had parked the car. We walked hand in hand in silence but it was comfortable. I could spend any moment with her whether we were deep in conversation or completely quiet and I would feel at peace.

"So you had fun today then?" I broke the silence.

"Yeah, it was different but it was fun. I didn't think this stuff was your style"

She was right. I was the type of guy who enjoyed being curled up at home with a cup of tea. I never really indulged in these sorts of adventures but I knew this was the stuff Tash liked. I hoped that by taking her out to do something that I wouldn't usually do would show her how much I cared about her and how much I valued her.

"Yeah I can't promise that the next date will be this exciting" I joked, "You do want to go on another date don't you?"

"Of course Harry" She brought my hand up to her face and kissed one of my knuckles, "Thank you for taking me out today, I know you're not really into this stuff, it means a lot."

I stayed silent, not really knowing what to say next. We carried on walking by the trees until she stopped and turned to face me. Her features looked absolutely beautiful in the light from the sunset. She had untied her hair once we left the garage, which only added to glow she had on her now.

"Harry is everything okay?" She asked.

I looked around, desperate for something to say, until I blurted, "Doesn't this sunset look great?"

She looked at me weirdly but seemed satisfied with my answer. I battled with my thoughts inside. Was it too early? Was I rushing? Or was I just being a coward?

The courage finally found and I cleared my throat, "Tash I need to ask you something"

"Sure go ahead" She squeezed my hand reassuringly.

I looked down at the ground and took her other hand with my free hand. I sighed deeply then looked back up at her to find her features had softened and there was a look of worry upon her face.

"Harry just tell me, I'm sure it's not that bad" She urged.

I blew another deep breath ten decided to just make a go of it, "Will you...erm like...be my girlfriend or something?" I mumbled.

She stared at me blankly, in complete silence.

Great. Way to fuck that up Harry. Stop being pathetic and just go for it.

"Natasha I want you to be my girlfriend. I want to call you mine" I spoke up, much, more confident this time.

I watched as her face went from a blank expression to a small smile. Her smile grew and she bit down on her bottom lip as if her smile would never stop getting bigger. Her reaction looked more promising now but she still hadn't said anything. Why was she taking so long? She couldn't say no, I wouldn't be able to bear stuffing up this amazing thing we had going on.

She finally released her lower lip and opened her pretty mouth to speak.
