       I had just finished unpacking my stuff. Bella was rubbing against my leg which meant that she wanted food. I poured cat food in the bowl and sat down right next to her as she chowed down. "Maybe we will have a better life here. No more kids trying to pull your tail or beat you." I always talked to Bella since I had no one else to talk to. She started to purr as if she understood me. I stroked her fluffy black fur. People think black cats are bad luck. To me, Bella is just a normal, everyday cat. I first found her at my doorstep after someone had rung the doorbell. She was looked as if she was just born. I have cared for her ever since. "When you are done maybe we could explore outside. For now I am going to get some lunch for myself." I said as I got up. I made myself just a simple turkey sandwich. Thats when it happened. I heard a knock on the door. I left my sandwich I had just made to go open it.

      "Hello. I just noticed that you moved in so I decided to welcome you to the neighborhood." I froze when I realized that at me door was him himself. Harry Styles. I quickly snapped out of it. "Thank you!" I said cheerfully trying not to freak out. "Huh? Oh sorry I was just admiring your umm..... Cat! I love cats." Harry said as he looked down at Bella. "Bella. Go say hi." I said to Bella. She went over to Harry and rubbed up against his leg. Harry bent down to pet Bella. She started to purr. "Just curious but doesn't it bother you that people think black cats are bad luck?" Harry asked as he got back up from petting Bella. "No. I find that Bella here gives me good luck all the time. Plus I don't really care what other people think about certain cats. Although, where we used to live the neighbors would beat her and pull her tail." I said as I let Bella climb up my back and lay on my shoulders. "Hmm. Well I would like to invite you over for dinner as a welcome to the neighborhood gift." He said with a cheeky smile. "Sure. What time?" I asked. "I was thinking maybe around 5:30?" He said. I checked the time on my phone. It was 3:46. "Okay I will see you then." I said with a smile. "Bye." He said as he walked back to him house. Before I shut the door I noticed that Harry took one more glance at me before entering his house.

      EEEEEEEEK!! "Oh Bella. What luck you bring me!" I sung her around and gently set her down. I had to get ready. I hopped in the shower. I carefully shaved so I wouldn't cut myself. I got out and blow dried my hair. My hair was naturally curly like his was so I didn't bother curling them. I didn't wear makeup like any other girl would. I never understood it. I didn't allow myself to buy some anyway. Instead I used my money on food, clothes, bills, and One Direction. I put on a strapless light purple dress. In the front it went up to my knees and in the back it went all the way down to my ankles. I put on a silver necklace that had an H carved into a heart. I sprayed some You and I perfume on me. I slipped on some black Toms.

         I did some poses in my mirror. "What do you think? Will he like it Bella?" I asked as I saw Bella laying on my dresser. She meowed at me. "That a girl." I said as I patted her head. I checked the time. It was 5:27. "Wish me luck. I promise we will go explore later." I said as I gave her one more pet before I left the house. I took a deep breath. "Okay (y/n). You can do this. Just stay cool. Don't freak out." I walked over to his door. I was hesitant to ring the doorbell. I finally rang it. Harry opened the door. 

        "Just in time! Dinner just got done. Please, come in." He said with a smile on his face. I smiled and entered his house. Wow! It was so clean and organized. Harry led me to the dinning room and pulled out a chair for me. I sat down as he scooted me in. "Why thank you." I said. I knew he had manners but dang!! He sure knew how to treat a woman. "Thank you for coming. Last time I did this I got a door slammed in my face." He said s he let out a little chuckle.

           "How long have you been a fan?" He asked as he went into the kitchen to go get the dinner he had made. "How could you tell I was a fan?" I asked. "I could tell by the way you froze when you answered the door earlier." He said. "Ever since you guys got formed into a group on X Factor." I said. "Really? Thats so cool. Well in that case. Thank you for being there ever since the beginning." He said as he finally brought out dinner. He had cooked chicken with a side of corn and mashed potatoes. "Thank you. Wow this looks amazing." I said. "Thank you. How foolish of me!" He said as he sat down. "What?" I asked. "I have forgotten to ask what your name is. How could I forget?" I said to himself. "My name is (y/n)." I told him. "(y/n)." He repeated. "That is such a pretty name." I couldn't help but blush.
