Harry's POV

It's been two weeks. Two weeks since we last kissed on the hill. Two weeks and I still haven't asked her to be mine. Two weeks I've been seeing her every day stealing glances at her every chance I get. And I still haven't asked her, Niall's been bugging me about it but I just can't seem to pick up enough courage to ask her. Even if we are really close now, it took me forever to actually talk to her. Well she actually came up to me first, but you get the picture.

I'm at the cafe today, it's supposed to be my day off but mum hasn't been feeling well so I've been taking care of the shop for the past couple days. It's Aurora's day off too but she insisted on keeping me company so she's in the corner of the store where she always is, drawing something she finds interesting I'm assuming.

Business has been slow lately, I'm not sure why it just has. So I decide to go sit across from Aurora. "Hey princess." I smile and rest my elbows on the table. She looks up from her drawing and smiles back "Hey curly." She looks around the shop "wow it's pretty dead in here huh?"

"Yeah has been for a couple days actually." I look around

"Well then let's go have some fun if today's not gonna be busy." She closes her book and stands up

I look up at her "I can't leave the store Rora, what if someone comes? Then we'll lose a customer."

"Oh well it's just a couple customers Harry. Come on! Live a little!" She tugs my sweater and I stand up

"Fine." I give in and she squeals in delight skipping to the front door  opening it motioning me to follow

I do as she says and follow her out the front door making sure to lock it as I leave.

"So where exactly are we going princess?" I shove my hands in my pockets following her down the sidewalk

"It's a surprise." She looks over her shoulder, a smile on her face

We've been walking for a while but then I realize we're at her apartment.

"Why are we here?" I ask looking at the old building

"To get my car." She points to an old red pickup truck

My eyes widen and a smile breaks out on my face " why do you have a truck in New York? Couldn't you just take a taxi or the subway?"

"My dad got it for me for my birthday last year, I only use it when I need to drop my brother off at school, or go to the secret place I'm about to take you." She smiles and grabs my hand leading me towards the old truck

I get in the passenger seat and fasten my seatbelt. "So this secret location must be somewhat far away?" I ask as she pulls out into the street and starts driving to wherever she's taking me

"You could say that." She shrugs looking at the road

Aurora's POV

It's not long until we get to Brooklyn, Harry has just been staring out the window the whole time humming to the songs that have been playing on the radio.

I turn park the truck right outside an alley and hop out, I turn to see if Harry's following me but he's not he's just staring out the window with wide doe like eyes. I roll my eyes and open the door for him

"Cmon scaredy cat let's go." I motion for him to get out of the truck

He slowly unbuckles his seatbelt and steps out the car. I close the door behind him causing him to jump a little.
