I didn't notice I'd fallen asleep before I heard a knock on the car window. It was Harry. He was wearing a beanie and sunglasses. But I could still see that it was him.

I opened the door and I hit his head with it.

"Sorry!" I screamed and went to if he was all right.

"I'm okay."

"Hiya!" I said.

"Hi, do you want to come in?" Harry smiled.

"Yes, please."

I followed him into his apartment. He guided me to the living room where I could see my wallet lying on the table.

He handed it to me.

"Thanks" I said and smiled politely.

"Do you, err, want to sit?" Harry asked.

"Alright." I said and sat down on the sofa.

He asked me if I wanted tea and I said yes.

"I hope I didn't ruin your relationship with that... girl?" I said.

"With Ingrid? Nah, it was over from the beginning." Harry said.

"Oh." I said, and looked a bit embarrassed.

"She was crazy though. I don't know what was going on in my mind." he said.

I didn't say anything. This was a bit awkward.

"So tell me about your stalker?" Harry said.

"Carl? Well, he's in my class and he's been stalking me ever since I refused to go on a date with me in 5th grade." I answered.

"Wow." Harry said.

"Last night he even knocked on my window! While I was sleeping!"

"Really?" he said.

"And he broke into my house once and hid in my closet." I said and shuddered.

"You don't have an restraining order?" Harry asked.

I shaked my head.

"You should really consider it." he said.

I took a sip of the tea he'd made me.

"I have considered it, and I have gone to the police about it, but there weren't any proof so they wouldn't let him have one." I said.

A sudden knock on the door. Harry went to open it while I waited in the living room.

"Hello mate!" a voice said in an Irish accent.

"Heyyy!" Harry said.

"Can I come in?" the Irishman asked.

"Uhm, sure." Harry said with hesitation. I heard footsteps coming towards me in the living room.

A blonde boy appeared in the doorway. He was surprised to see me.

"Hello!" he said to me.

"Niall this is... uhm..." said Harry.

"Natalie." I said loud and clear. Funny I hadn't really introduced myself.

"Natalie!" Harry grinned.

"Nice to meet you, Natalie." the blonde, Irish boy said.

The boys sat down in the sofa. We talked about uninteresting things for hours.

I learned that Niall was dating someone named Joy, and she was Australian.

When I realized I might need to go home, it was very late, so I decided I'd sleep on Harrys sofa.
