It was the 31st August night. It was my 19th birthday and Harry, my best friend since secondary school, invited me for a dinner at a well known five star restaurant.

AT THE RESTAURANT

The waitress showed us our table and we both got seated. She then started flirting with Harry making as i i wasn't there (actually i felt left out and that was weird) and Harry, having noticed and being a bit harassed, took my hand and asked :

" So, babe, what do you want to eat ? "

Just then the waitress' face fell. She just noted our order and went directly to give our order to the cook and i started laughing. (Actually i thought it was a little joke he made to get rid of that bitch) but Harry was staring at me strangely. So, i asked :

" Haz ! You seem so nervous ! What happened ? "

He took some seconds, as if he was meditating and then finally said :

" Rebecca, there's something I want to tell you but, honestly, I'm a bit afraid to do it.. I, I don't know if I should. I mean, may be it's not the right time. You know.. Hmm"

" Hey, Harry ! Calm down. You know you can tell me anything... Tell me " , i said as i took his hands into mine.

He took a deep breath, looked at me and said :

"Hmm.. Okay. Right then ! Just got to do it. You know, Reb, we've been like best friends since some years now and you know i... like... you very much but for some weeks now, you've been like always on my mind. So, i'm getting straight to the point ! Rebecca, ... "

He waited some seconds, and finally said while looking into my eyes :

" I.. I love you ! Would you go out with me ? "

Harry was now standing in front of me, in the middle of the restaurant, with his arms stretched forwards as if saying : ' come here for a hug '. As he noticed that some persons in the restaurant was watching him, he sat back down and bit his lips waiting for an answer. I was busy thinking. I knew i loved Harry but i still hadn't broken up with my actual boyfriend, Nathan. It makes weeks that i'm trying to tell him that it's over but i still haven't got the occasion to do so. And why not give Harry a try ? He was cute, funny, intelligent, smart, mature ; that kind of boy every girl would want to go out with. At first, i had a crush on him but sometimes we misunderstand a great friendship with love so i told myself not to go too far and not tell him anything. Now, how could i say no ? Of course i wanted to say yes but that was complicated. Finally, after some time of reflection, i finally smiled and said :

" Harry ! I love you too.. I'd really like to give it a try and go out with you but i have to deal with a problem first. Than we'll be able to be together "

" Uh.. Okay. I don't understand.. What problem is there ? "

" Remember Nathan Scott ? "

" Yeah ! Your ex, right ? How could i ever forget him ? What happened ? " , he asked anxiously.

" In fact, i didn't yet leave him. He's not answering the phone and i wanted to make it clear with him and give him explanations. Even though I think he doesn't really deserve it. "

Harry nodded and gave me a long, profound and passionate kiss. He then invited me for a dance as an orchestra was playing some slow songs. One of his hands took mine and the other one went by my waist. I looked into those shiny eyes and I can tell you that I never realised how beautiful his eyes were... He then put his head near mine and murmured :

" I'm so happy baby ! I've thought of many things you could tell me and imagined many scenes that could happen but that one is the best. I love you "

I knew this night would change my life and i sincerely hoped that it was for the best...
