"You're not planning something that will end us up in jail are you?" I worriedly asked him. I am in the passenger side of Harry's car while he tried to focus his attention to his driving. He still switched glances between me and the road.

"I'll pay for the bail anyway." He joked and I punched him in his left arm for doing so. "Ouch!" He whined.

If you will ask me if I'm having a nice time with him, I am. Harry is fun to be with unless if he is in his bad mood. He's funny and witty at the same time. Though we are just driving down the road while bickering back and forth like cats and dogs, I still end up laughing or snorting at his comments. I will change the radio station and he will scold me for being nosey. We look like the typical couple on their way to their date if you ask other people of what they think about us.

I can't imagine us hating each other like a month ago, now we're like girlfriends and boyfriends. I guess Harry is easy to befriend with if you try to get around his guarded wall and when he wants to.

"Can we eat before going to where you are planning to?" I suggested but he easily turned me down.

"No, we will miss it." He said it again and again while I have no idea what will we be missing. He is not specific and he is refusing to give me hints. I stayed silent in my seat because I was really hungry but Harry told us we're not eating first. He also stayed silent while he is inspecting the streets we passed by.

Because of the silence surrounding us, my mind gets back to what I've been thinking about the whole day. Marlene's words came through me again. Give him a chance. This is what I'm exactly doing right now. I don't want to ruin the friendship I'm starting to build with him.

"We're here."

I roamed the place through the window with my eyes. I realized that this place is familiar but I never really got a chance to see the place because of the darkness when I first got here.

"I hope you don't mind climbing the gates again. I still don't have a key for it." He chuckled while unbuckling his seatbelt.

I unbuckled the seatbelt around me and got out of the car. The wind blew the dirt around us causing me to hide my face with my arm. I saw Harry starting to climb the old metallic gate that we once climbed over with Jen and Dan. The last time we got here the three story house surrounded by the forest is terrifying. Now, it looks peaceful and serene.

"How did you guys know this place anyway?" I asked as I watch Harry climb the gate and swing his leg to the other side.

"Its ours." He replied. "C'mon." I looked at the gate and studied how to get over it again.

I placed my right foot on the space between the two parallel bars that have old vintage carvings and serve as our leverage to hoist ourselves up. I found another space to place my left foot with while securely grabbing the metal bars by my hands. Harry watched me while I'm having a hard time in climbing over the gate with a smug smile on his gorgeous face. I finally reached the top and swung my leg on the other side like what Harry did followed by my other leg before doing the same thing in going down.

I remember Harry helping me climb down the gate the first time we got here. He placed his hands on my waist carefully that time and I wish he would do it again. I find it nice to be close to him like being enclosed inside the car with him.

I was busy reliving the moments with him that I lost my balance on my left foot. Harry immediately caught me by my waist to prevent me from falling down the ground.

"Clumsy aren't we?" I looked over my shoulder and I found his face centimeters from mine. I can feel his hot breath on my neck giving me shivers down my spine. My heartbeat accelerated from being this close to him while his arms held me securely by my waist. His smirk widened when I he noticed that I was staring at his face without being subtle.
