"Harry?" I turn around and find the face that I haven't seen in a couple days. "Funny how we meet here again." He says sitting down next to me. "Yeah." I say still surprised that he is here. "How have you been?" He asks me. "Ok I guess." I tell him as I take another sip of my drink. "I have to pay you back for the hotel room. What was the price you paid?" I ask hoping to write him a check. He shakes his head, "think of it as a I'm glad you didn't get married present." He says laughing as the bartender brings him another drink.

"What is that supposed to mean?" I ask not sure if I should feel offended or not. "It means that I don't think whoever you were going to marry made you happy. I've never seen a sober and frowning bride on her bachelorette night." He says gulping down his drink. "Oh." I say turning away from him to look at my friends. It feels like my bachelorette night all over again.

"What are you doing here?" He asks me. "My friends wanted to go out tonight." I say pointing at the group of girls dancing in the middle of everyone else. "I see." He says looking at me. "Why aren't you dancing?" He asks me. "I don't really like to dance." I say. "What would've happened during your first dance at your wedding then?" He asks me. He's obviously interested in the answer. "Sucked it up and danced. We picked like a two minute song anyway." I say cringing at the song Matt absolutely had to dance to. I hated it.

"Let's go dance." Harry says standing up. "What? No. I just said I didn't like to dance." I say as I feel my palms becoming sweaty. "So what? It's a slower song. Won't be much dancing. More swaying." He tells me as he runs his hand through his hair. "I don't want to." I literally hate dancing almost as much as I hate clowns. "Come on. Pay back for me spending all that money for you to stay in that hotel room for a couple of days." He says smirking and grabbing my hand. I blush because this is the first time he has ever touched me and because my hands are still sweaty.

I roll my eyes and stand up as he drags me to the middle of the dance floor, in between everyone else who is dancing. "One song." I say as my heart begins to race more. I've only slow danced with Matt a few times in the privacy of our own home. "Ok." He says placing his hands on my hips and pulls me close to him. I gasp at the sudden movement and look up at him. He rolls his eyes and laughs as he pulls arms up and wraps them around his neck. Just like me and Matt would dance.

"You ok?" He asks me as I swallow hard and look over at my friends who have yet to notice me. "Yeah." I say looking back up at him. He places his hands on my hips again and we start moving back and forth before he hits me with the most famous line ever when it comes to dancing, "just follow my lead." I laugh a little and do just that.

"Relax." He says laughing at me as he pulls me closer to him. We are so close I am forced to rest my head on his chest. I feel him sigh and his hands get tighter around my waist. I'm not as uncomfortable as I was when we first started, mainly because the scent of him that lingered on the bed in the hotel room is the same scent I smell on his white t-shirt. It calms me down.

I don't realize when the song ends and when I open my eyes again Harry's still dancing and I'm following. His head is rested slightly on the top of mine. When I realize it's a new song I back away from him and he sighs. "Another?" He asks me with a hopeful smile. "Let's go get another drink instead." I say walking back to my seat on the bar.

"Was that so bad that you need to drink to forget it?" Harry asks laughing as he sits down next to me and orders us both another drink. "No it wasn't." I say laughing.

"Mia?" I hear a dreadful voice say behind me. I turn around and see Matt standing there looking at me and over at Harry. "Where have you been?" Matt asks as he walks up behind me. Harry turns around on his stool to face him and leans back onto the bar and watches Matt. "None of your business. Why are you here?" I ask him. "We need to talk. You've been God knows where and you left me at the alter and all I get from you is a text?" He says and I look at him and try not to laugh. He did this to himself.

"I don't want to talk to you Matt." I say looking over at Harry who is biting the bottom of his lip and tapping his foot quickly. "Just tell me where you were and what you were doing! It's like you were missing!" He says sounding ridiculous. "She was with me." Harry says sitting up straight in his seat. "And who are you?" Matt says looking at Harry like he is disgusted. "Matt leave him alone." I say not sure of the reason why I'm defending Harry.

"What? Have you two been seeing each other?" Matt asks as he face goes pale. "No Matt!" I say growing even more annoyed. "We met the day before the wedding. I'm not a cheater like you are!" I say standing up. I'm ready to leave. "Woah you cheated on her?" Harry says also standing up. "This isn't any of your business." Matt says pointing his finger at Harry.

Harry takes a step closer to Matt and stares at him in the eyes as Matts finger goes back down. He's clearly intimated. "Let's just go back to our place and discuss everything." Matt says growing impatient. "I'm not going anywhere with you." I say as I grab my coat and my purse and try to walk past Matt. Just as I pass him he grabs my arm and pulls me back to him. "Owe Matt! What the hell? Let go of me!" I shout at him. His grip becomes tighter before he loosens up a little.

"Get the fuck off of her." Harry says grabbing me and pulling me gently towards him. I rub my arm where Matt was holding me and look at him as he glares at Harry. "Well this is great." Matt says looking around. I really do hate him. "We were supposed to get married a week ago and now you already have a new boyfriend." He looks at both of us and turns around and walks of of the bar.

"Are you alright?" Harry asks as he takes my hand into his. "Yes. I'm leaving now." I say as I walk out of the bar. Once I get outside I place my jacket on and quickly text Claire that I'll be heading back to her place. Her and the girls will probably be out for a couple more hours.

As I start walking I hear footsteps behind me. I start to walk quicker and so does whoever is behind me. "Mia!" I hear Harry's voice yell. "Why are you running?" Harry says as he catches up to me. "I thought someone was following me." I say relived. "I'm walking you home." He says and I sigh and realize Claire's place is too far to walk from here. "We need to catch a cab. My friends place is too far away for walking." I tell him and he quickly hales a cab down.

We give the driver the address and about twenty minutes later we arrive. "You didn't have to come all this way with me." I tell Harry as I pay the cab driver. "It's fine. I live down the street from here." He says pointing. I nod and walk over to the entrance of Claire's place. "I'm sorry about Matt." I say as Harry and I stand in front of the building. "Its no problem." Harry says shoving his hands in his coat pockets. "Well I'm gonna head inside and get ready for bed." I tell him as I pull the key out of my purse. "Let me." He says grabbing the key from me. He unlocks the door for me and hands me it back once the door is open. "Thank you." I step inside and stand there until he decides to leave.

"Don't forget to lock the door." Harry tells me. "I won't." I say smiling. "Can I see you again?" He asks me. "Um yeah. I guess." I say and he smiles and looks down at the floor. "What are you doing tomorrow?" He asks me. "I have nothing planned." I tell him. "Good. Um so is it ok if I drop by here around 12 and we can go find something to do?" He asks me. "Yeah. Sounds good." I say smiling at him. "Ok well I'll see you then." He says before adding, " have a good night. And don't forget to lock the doors." And he walks off. I shut the door and run up to my room I'm staying in and watch him walk away until I can't see him anymore.
