"Don’t walk away from me Nicole!" Harry yelled. I turned around to face Harry. "Then don’t follow me Harry" I yelled back. "After you stood me up, this is how you act? You’re such a child Nicole" Harry said. I looked at him in shock. "You stood me up Styles! I have a right to be mad at you!" I replied. "No, I waited for you, you didn’t show up, and then I bumped into Jamie when you didn’t show up" Harry said. "Waited for me where" I asked in an almost quiet voice. I didn’t get it, we both waited for each other last night, and we both say we got stood up...what was going on here? I asked myself. "I waited for you...." Harry started to say, but out of nowhere Jamie bumped into us, and pulled Harry to dance. I stood there clueless, as to what was really going on. I went to sit into a booth for a few minutes. I needed to think, to think about my feelings, and more importantly to think about what was going on between Harry and I. I got up from the booth and went to look for Harry and Jamie. I came to a halt when I found their faces only a few inches from each other. It looked like their lips could attach at any moment. I choked back, and suppressed my anger. "Really?" I asked loudly. Both of their heads quickly turned to my direction and before they could blink their eyes, I started speed walking out of the club. "Nicole! Nicole!" I heard Harry call, but I kept walking. I only stopped when he grabbed my hand.

I reluctantly turned around and gave Harry a blank stare. I had nothing to say to him. I saw what I saw, and besides, we aren’t dating each other so I shouldn’t be upset right? Right! Harry paused to catch his breath before finally speaking. "I'm sorry for what you saw, but it wasn’t what you think, she was coming on to me" he said. I tucked some hair behind my ear. "Harry, you can do whatever you want...I don’t care, it's not like we are dating right?" I asked boldly. Even though my response came out confident, I was super nervous to say that to his face. Harry Styles can have a girlfriend, and cheat on her five times, and she will still take him back, because he's Harry Styles. But not me, I’m the difficult one, what most fan girls would probably label "the weird/stupid one" for asking him that. But I tend to travel on my own road; I don’t like to follow others. "Well...I...I just thought that..." Harry said. He ran his hand through his hair before speaking again. "Nicole, I like you okay, and ever since we met at that party in your hotel, I’ve only had eyes for you, not Jamie. I wouldn’t make a move on her, because I like you" he said. And in that moment, I swear my heart spilled and started flowing all over the floor. I was beginning to feel all warm and fuzzy inside. I mentally shook myself, and got upset at myself for easily accepting what he was saying. Dammit it must be the eyes, it must be the eyes! I thought to myself. Harry's eyes searched mine as I stayed quiet. "Nicole, do you like me too?" he asked. The lovely feeling I felt in my stomach was quickly replaced by a feeling of nausea. I’m a shy girl, and to just admit my feelings so bluntly, made me more than nervous. Instead of speaking, I decided to nod my head yes. Harry smiled and gave me a tight hug. I took in his scent and relaxed. "I would never hurt you like that" he whispered. "I know" I whispered back. “When I was with her, she practically said that I like to get around, and sleep with lots of girls. I told her it wasn’t true, and she didn’t believe me. I would never date anyone like that" he said. "I know you’re not like that, don’t pay attention to what she says, ignore her. What matters is the truth, which we both know" I replied. Harry smiled at me and kissed me deeply. "Can I walk you to your room?" he asked. I nodded yes.

I woke up to a chorus of people singing "Happy Birthday" I tossed around and smiled at my parents. In their hands was a tiny cake with candles on it. When the song ended I blew out my candles and gave both my parents a hug. “Even though I'm not a baby... thank you for this" I smiled. My mom kissed the top of my head. "So what are your birthday plans?" My dad asked. I tilted my head to the side and tried to think of a good reply because I didn't want to spend my birthday roaming Disney world with my parents. How lame would that be? "UM..." I said not knowing what to say. I looked to Jamie’s bed and saw her body completely wrapped under her blanket. She obviously had a shitty night. I smirked. "Well?" My dad asked. “I um..." I said just before there was a knock at the door. I quickly pulled my hair into a ponytail and walked to go get it, thankful to have a tank top and shorts. I opened the door and gasped. "Harry!" I quietly yelled while jumping into his arms. He laughed before wrapping his arms around me. "Good morning beautiful, happy birthday" He whispered. I beamed at him. He remembered my birthday. "Not being rude because I am totally glad to see you, but what are you doing here?" I asked. "Right. I've came up with a plan that we spend your birthday together. Take charge of a few parks and then have dinner" He smiled. I nodded my head vigorously in agreement. When it came to harry sometimes acting cool, went out the window. Ahem I heard coming from inside my room. I turned to find my parents still there I mentally groaned. I took Harrys hand and led him into my room. "Um mom, dad this is harry styles, harry these are my parents" I said. I could feel Harrys hand tense up a little before he relaxed. He smiled at my Parents before offering them his hand to shake. "It’s lovely to meet you both" he said. "Harry just said we can spend the day at the parks together and then go to dinner for my birthday" I said. "At the coral restaurant" harry added. I could tell that my dad didn't like the idea. My mom looked at him and noticed he wasn't either. "I think it’s a great idea. You two have fun and don’t get into trouble" She said hugging me and harry again. She took my dad’s hand and led him out of my room. I turned to face harry. "Now you, need to get dressed, I’ll let you do that and while you’re getting dressed I will be getting some things ready and then I will come back okay" he said. "Okay" I agreed. He kissed my cheek and walked away. When he was completely out of the room is when I let out a well-deserved squeal and jumped onto my bed. "Shut up over there!" Jamie said under the covers. I quietly chuckled. “Doesn’t be such a crab" I replied before heading to the bathroom to get dressed.
