Hailey's POV

I stood there, my mind consumed of thoughts of what life could have been for me, as I lightly dab my paint brush back into the water, washing away all the left over paint. I stood back from my finished painting, processing what I just created. Not to brag or anything but when I saw it, I was shocked at the outcome of the painting. I have never painted something so breathtaking and emotional in my life. Well that I remember of. I stuck all my emotions and thoughts about Harry and I into this painting. It was mostly what I imagined what life could have been for me before the crash. I imagined that I would still be with Harry, well that's what he said so I just trusted him. It was a painting of Harry and I in our place together.

I jump as I hear footsteps coming closer to me, almost forgetting that Harry lives here. I jump in front of my painting, covering it up with my body so Harry doesn't see.

"Hey! How's it going?" Harry peaking around my body to see what I'm hiding.

"I'll show you when I'm done,Harry. Did you want something?"

"Oh...Yah! Umm... I was wondering if you know wanted to... Umm.... Do something  together later?" His voice was shaking. My cheeks heating up at the thought of Harry asking me out.

"Sure. But this still doesn't mean we are together. This is my way of getting to now you. Is that okay?" I said hoping to not sound rude.

"Oh! Of course! Sorry if it came out sounding like that. I just thought we should go do something." Harry smiled, making me blush.

"Okay. When are we going?"

"Be ready by 8. Dress nice. Okay?"

"Okay." He waved goodbye and I got back to my painting, hoping to finish it soon.

I finished just in time and still had plenty of time to go back to my house and get ready. I placed the painting down to dry and walked back upstairs to tell Harry that I was done and going back to get ready. I walked around searching for that curly headed boy until I came into the kitchen. He was grabbing a glass of water.

"Hey. I finished so I'm heading back to my place to go get ready. And please don't try to look at my painting. It has to dry first before I show you." I smirked.

"Awe.... But I wanted to!" He pouted.

"I'll show you tomorrow, styles. Goodbye!" I grabbed my bag on the couch and waved.

"Ok... Fine..... Be safe when your driving back. I'll pick you up at 8. See you tonight, love." Harry waved from the kitchen.

I closed the door behind me getting out of my car. I have an hour to get ready. Okay. I got this. When I got in the house(used to be art studio) I threw my bag on the couch and went to take a shower. I slipped off my clothing and got in, starting to rinse off my hair. I grabbed my bamboo shampoo and lathered it all over my hair. I rinsed it off moving on to conditioner. I repeated  the same routine then stepped out and wrapped a towel around my body and another for my hair. I went out to find a nice dress to wear in my closet. I didn't have that many fancy clothing. I was just never that type of girl. But luckily I had one when I went to my moms friends wedding. Luckily it wasn't to fancy so I wouldn't feel that weird in it. It was short but not to short red dress with a diamond pattern around the waist. I paired it with a my silver gemstone necklace and some nice bracelets. I also grabbed a silver sparkly clutch and my beige pumps. I went back into the bathroom and set my outfit down while I started to blow dry my hair. Once I was done I curled my hair so that it looks like loose waves and not really spirally. I put on my outfit and my jewelry with only 5min to spare.

I got startled by the sound of the door bell ring once I just sat down. Harry was early. I smiled to myself as I walked over to the door to answer it. I pulled open the door to reveal a nice put together Harry smiling I front of me. He was wearing nice jeans and a dress shirt which made him look more older. He had his curls combed nice and slick. He looked absolutely amazing. I must have been staring because I heard him start to talk.

"Wow! Hailey, you look absolutely stunning." He looked me from head to toe smirking. I blushed.

"Thank you. You don't so bad yourself, styles." I giggled.

"Shall we go miss Hailey." His cute little dimples popped out as he held out his hand for mine.

"We shall." I giggle a little once again at him before taking his hand and headed off to where ever we were going.
