It was about my 12th time looking at myself in the mirror just to make sure I looked okay for tonight. I waved my short hair and straightened my bangs and put on a bit of makeup but not too much.

Harry texted me earlier that he was on his way over to get me. I went downstairs and fed Gibson then heard the doorbell ring. Gibson ran to the door with his tail wagging. "Coming!" I said setting the bag of dog food down and ran to the door holding Gibson back as much as I could. I opened the door seeing Harry standing there smiling.

Gibson jumped up landing against Harry. "Well hello there buddy! Hi Alexis." Harry walked inside petting Gibson.

"Hey. Sorry about Gibson. He loves people." I chuckled.

"It's quite alright! Are you ready to go?" Harry asked standing in front of me.

"Yeah I just have to put Gibsons food away." I walked into the kitchen, "You can look around if you want! Would you like a drink?" I asked. I put Gibsons food in the cabinet and filled up his water bowl.

I could hear Harry's boots clicking along the floor as he walked into the kitchen joining me. I turned off the water and set down his bowl. "I'm okay for right now. You didn't eat dinner yet did you?" He asked raising his eyebrows.

"No I haven't. You told me not to." I giggled.

"Right... Just checking. Let's go!" Harry clasped his hands together smiling at me. He wore black skinny jeans and a white t-shirt with brown boots. Anything he wore looked good on him.

I locked the front door and we walked together to his car that was parked in front of my house. It was a beautiful black Range Rover. Harry opened my door for me, "My lady." He smirked.

"Why thank you kind sir." I laughed and got in the car. Harry walked to his side and got in starting the car. "This is a nice car." I commented feeling the leather console and seat.

"Thanks! My dad gave it to me for my 18th birthday. Speaking of that, how old are you?" He asked.

"I'm 21. How old are you?" I turned to him seeing him concentrate on the road.

"I'm 24. Not that big of a difference." He smiled turning towards me then back to the road.

"Not at all." My curiosity was getting the best of me, "So where are we going?"

"We're going to go out to eat and then play a bit of mini golf if that's alright with you? I'm not telling you where we're eating though." He smirked.

"I love mini golf! And I love surprises just not when I'm the one who doesn't know what the surprise is." Harry laughed.

"I'm sorry darling, but I'm not telling." My heart fluttered when he called me darling. "Would you mind grabbing my snap back from in the back seat please?" He asked.

I looked back and grabbed his hat handing it to him. "Here you go."

"Thank you." He put on the hat making him look even hotter.

The car ride was silent between the two of us, but it was a nice silence while the radio was on low. We had a few conversations here and there and an occasional laugh. It was relaxing I guess you could say.

We arrived at 54th Street. "I like this place! It's really cool." I stated.

"Yeah it's pretty neat! I like their set up and how they're so mellow around here." Harry said while parking the car. He then got out and scurried to my side opening the door before I could even reach the handle.

I smiled up at him, "Thank you. And thank you for taking me out tonight." My cheeks were getting hot. All I could here was Harry's chuckle that slipped passed his lips.
