SHELBY'S POV:

Harry and I are paired. We decide to hide in the forest behind there house. We run deep inside until we both agree that we are good.

"Niall would be to chicken to even want to come in here." Harry laughs. I chuckle a bit.

He sits on a boulder by the pond we stopped by. He picks up a couple of rocks and throws them into the pond.

There's nothing but crickets chirping.

"Harry?"

"Hmm?"

"What happened to you back at training today?"

He flinches a bit when I asked him, but answers with a "Nothing." I frown.

"That wasn't nothing back there. Niall actually thought he had done something wrong." He looked down and messing with the hem of his shirt. I knew then that I had him where I wanted him.

"I was just caught up in a bad memory okay?" He said aloud. "You happy?"

Sadly no I wasn't happy. A bad memory? "Wha-what do you mean? 'A bad memory?'"

"It was just a bad memory okay? About someone I loved. It's complicated. I don't wanna talk about it anymore."

Then It hit me. His file... when I was reading over it I remember seeing something about a car crash and a girl or a girlfriend of his. They were close. I closed my eyes and swallow hard. When I open them Harry has shed a tear. I walk over and place my hand on his. He looks at me with his watering green orbs.

"Harry, always know your stronger than this. She's always going to be here. She'll be right here," I say putting my hand over my heart. "Always." I finish.

HARRYS POV:

"Always." She finishes.

"That's what she'd always tell me... And it would always make my day better...." It's true she did always say that, and it did always make it better. "Thank you Shel- I mean Agent Shelby. You really helped." She smiles her lovely smile. And hugs me. "Please. It's just Shelby when we are out here, and anytime." I don't know what it is but when she pulled away that warm feeling kinda went away. It was... Weird.

"So they haven't found us that's a good thing right?" She says with chattering teeth. She start rubbing her arms. She's cold. I shrug off my jacket and hand it to her. She looks at me questionably. "Here, your cold and wearing a short sleeve."

"No. Your gunna be cold, I've been in worse conditions. It's just been a while I'll get use to it soon." I roll my eyes at her answer, and place it on her.

"Don't argue! Just take it." She surprisingly doesn't argue she smiles.

"Thank you."

"Wouldn't want you to catch something."

She nods.

I look up and notice a Little light bug pass us by. "Firefly." Shelby says.

"What?"

"That's what there called fireflies." She says standing up from our sitting position. She walks over to a patch of them and catches one. Then brings it over. And opens her hand the bug then flies out and up. It was a beautiful sight, and I'm not talking about the bug I'm talking about her. She was so into it I loved the sight in front of me.

"Woah, beautiful." She looks down at me and smiles.

What is happening to me? What is she doing to me? Why I'm I calling her beautiful? Why?

"It's getting late we should probably head back up there." She interrupts my thinking.

"Uh, yeah sure. Let's go."

As we walk up we see, a fire and chairs set up in the backyard, and Louis walking out with marshmallows. He turns and sees us. "Yeah we kinda gave up. As you can see."

We laugh and find a chair to sit in. Not even 5 minutes later Zayn and Red walk out laughing. Hmm? Then Liam and Ryan walk up from around the house and sit. Soon we are all sitting around the fire laughing and talking. It's fascinating listening to the agents mission stories. They've literally saved so many lives it's crazy to think about.

I think we are all going to become great friends.
