Save You Tonight

Chapter Nine

Harry's POV

I straightened out my shirt nervously as I walked down the hallway towards Abbey's room. Three hours later it was now time for us to leave on our date. I had spent most of that time trying to figure out where I should take her. Thankfully Zayn and Lea were a huge help. By the time we had everything worked out I had barley anytime to get ready. I straightened my shirt out again. I think I did pretty good though. I had on my dark skinny jeans, a plain gray T-shirt, my converse and my dark green beanie. I just hoped I looked okay, I thought as I stopped in front of her door and took a deep breath. I knocked and stepped back.

The door opened and there stood Abbey. "Hi Harry." she said smiling.

I literally had no words. How could someone look so beautiful in something so simple? She had on a pair of light wash high waisted shorts and a long sleeved American flag crop top exposing a bit of her stomach. She had small heeled black books on and her long brown had been slightly curled and was worn down. I was literally speechless.

"Harry. Harry? Are you still with me?" She said poking me playfully.

"Huh? Oh yeah. I'm here." I said laughing. "You look absolutely beautiful."

"Thank you. You don't look to bad yourself." She said as she stepped forward and kissed my cheek. "So what do you have planned for us?"

"Oh you'll see." I said taking her hand and walking her toward the front door. I held it open for her and then led her to the car. Once we were in I looked over at her. "You have to put this on." I said handing her a black bandana.

"Why?" She said looking confused.

"Not like on your head. Tie it over your eyes so you can't see." I said laughing.

"Awh. But why? I wanna see where we're going."

"The whole point of the bandana is so you don't. It's a surprise."

The fairly short drive was silent and when we got there I was incredibly excited. "Okay we're here!" I said happily looking over at Abbey.

She reached up to take the blindfold off but I reached over and stopped her. "Why can't I take it off yet?" She said pouting.

"Because, while although we are here we're not quite where we need to be yet." I said getting out of the car and walking over to open her door.

"Fine." She grumbled as she stepped out of the car and crossed her arms.

"Oh come on. It's not that much longer." I replied unfolding her arms and taking her hand.

Before leaving I opened the back door and grabbed a basket with my free hand. I then started walking up the path until I came to a nice clear patch with the perfect view. I let Abbey's hand go and opened the basket pulling out a blanket. I smoothed it over the ground and quietly set out the food and the candle I had brought. I lit it and then stood up and took her hand again. I led her to the blanket and guided her down so she was sitting.

"You ready?" I asked sitting behind her. She nodded. I reached for the tie of the blindfold. "1...2...3.."

Abbey's POV

"1...2...3..."

I felt Harry untie the blindfold and then I could see again. I gasped as I looked around. Everything was so beautiful. I couldn't believe that he had done all this. We were sitting on a blanket on the beach with a breathtaking view of the sunset over the ocean. He has a candle set out with plates and so much food.

"Harry. It's so.."

"Oh god." He said running a hand through his hair. "You don't like it do you? I should've done something different."
