Daphne's POV

"Niall! I have no clothes!" I stated once we reached his room.
"We are going shopping for our date." He said.
"Ni...as much as I want it to be a date, it can't be." I said, sadly.
"I don't mind that your keeping a secret, no matter how big the secret is, I still like you alot." He stated.
"Okay. But, still, it doesn't feel right lying like this." I said. "What do I wear out?" All I've been wearing is his clothes and Zayn's ex girlfriend's bikinis.
"Zayn may still have an outfit from Kara." He said, walking to Zayn's room. He came back with dark blue jean shorts that showed the tips of the pocket, a galaxy anchor high-low top, some underwear, and some black converse. I took them and headed to the bathroom. I kissed Niall's cheek and said thanks on my way in.
Niall and I drove to the mall. I didn't know what that was, but I pretended to be excited.
Being a mermaid and all, I can't know EVERYTHING!
We parked in the backs and hardly any other cars were there. "Why'd we park back here?" I asked.
"Babe, I'm famous." He said, like it was soo obvious.
I didn't answer, just reached for my car door. Before I could open it, Niall reached for my hand. I looked up to see him standing with my door open.
I took his hand and he pulled me out if the car. I stood beside him, almost his same hight. He shut my door.
He walked beside me and slung his arm around my waist, pulling me closer. I gasped and looked up at him.
He kissed my cheek and said, "Be calm, babe. Just relax. I know this isn't a date, but that doesn't mean we can't act like it."
He was right. It can't be a date, because I don't feel right lying about my identity, but we can still act like it...because God knows I want it to be!
"Okay. I do want it to be a date..." I said, trailing off.
"Then let it be." He pulled me into his chest, looking me dead in the eyes. His dark blue ones pierced my light blue ones. "I really like you. Your eyes are...so mysterious. Like...mystical. I love them." I let that sink in, thinking how seriously close he is...mysterious, mystical.
"So, what do you say? Date?"
I laughed a little. "I'm still not comfortable with the secrets..." I stopped. His eyes looked downward. "Lets just go, I haven't been shopping in light years!" I said.
We began to walk, hand in hand, toward the mall.
"Actually...light years is a term describing distance not time." He said as we entered the doors.
"And you pointed that out on the first date why?" I asked, kind of ticked. I smirked at his expression though. He seemed so happy.
"Oh my gosh!" He said, pulling me to him as squeezing me hard. He kissed my cheek repeatedly.
"Shall we shop now?" I asked, him still kissing my cheek.
"Yes!" He squealed. He grabbed my waist and pecking my cheek one last time.
Melanie's POV

On the drive to the mall, Harry put his hand on my knee. I allowed it, because I mean, he's amazing in every way. And I love him...
