Midnight memories (One Directional Mix)

Chapter 10

HARRY POV:

I sat quietly in my car whilst driving, thinking where we'll head to, coz' this lady beside me keep commanding. I'll like these idea we are acting as if we are in a theatre saying good lines from famous novels of all time. It makes me feel younger and carefree, I bet Perrie thinking it the same way I did.

"So, my Lady. You want a paradise, I will bring you to a paradise." I said playfully as she smile at me with an excitement on her face.

I'm glad she loves my company. It's my pleasure that in a simple way, I can help her forget for awhile. Forget about the memories and change the melancholic images out her mind into a happy one.

I parked my car in the space lot, I think few people walking around. The time is running so fast, I checked my watch it's nearly 12 in the midnight.

"Stay still." I tell her while I stepped outside.

I hurriedly open the door for her, still gesturing like a slave.

"Now, you can step outside  your higness", I said as I offered my right hand to assist her, bowing my head over her.

I heard her chuckles. How adorable, Pezza.

I smirk.

"So, where's the Paradise Lad?" she look around while waiting for my response.

"Chill. Just follow me." I replied.

"Okay, then." she smiled one more time.

She trailed behind me, hearing every footstep on our way to trance. We passed through the small gate where we can see beautiful plants and flower decorating the narrow pathway. I looked back, to check if Perrie still with me. I can see her face lit up, her eyes widening with full of amazement.

"Keep going. We are near." I broke the silence and she nods.

As we get there, I walk further until I step in the wooden floor leading to a sparkling still water underneath. I sat down, I let my foot hang around and playfully soaked it into the lake. I keep dangling it, while whistling a hum. Perrie sat beside me.

"Haz, it's beautiful." she said with her glowing eyes still wondering around.

I breathe in and out and followed her gaze into this beautiful scenery. It's already dark, but the moon is full, stars glistening up in the sky.  

 The serenity of the lake, with the quiet stillness all around. Even the insects are at peace. The moon in its full splendor lights up the night and cascades its light with a romantic glow. Its shimmering reflection casts a silverly sparkle on the still waters. This same lake has transformed itself to an enchanted place with an evening full of anticipation of that special person in which to share this time in a bottle experience.

Speaking of a bottle, I forgot to get us some drinks just to stay with us throughout the night.

"So, are you satisfied now, Lady?" I said looking at her at my side.

"so much.", she giggles.

"I never thought you had this in mind." She added still astonished.

"Why? Because all you think about me is I am a party boy from chelsire." I said sarcastically.

"Well. But you changed my point of view. Look, I'm sorry. It's just that it's the way you acted before", She remarked.

"Oh", I sighed

"Can I know how you looked at me before?" I added as I wanted to hear her impression from the first time we've met.

"Hmm. Promise me you won't get mad." She said as she's having a second thought.

"It depends on what you'll tell me." I joked.

"Harry", I heard her geordie accent once more. I laugh at her.

"Okay, okay. I won't" I raised both of my hand in surrender.

"Okay. The girls and I once talked about you guys. Niall, Liam, Louis, you and.. you know.. and him." She started unwanting to say the name who crushed her.

I listened to her, sweet voice, intently.

"So, we came up with different impression. But it was just an impression which didn't lasts. Jade said Louis was a boastful. Leigh Anne thinks Liam was a smart ass lad who can play around people. Niall of course Niall the nicest boy we've met, Jesy thought has an eating disorder. You can't blame us because he is still such a greedy eater." We both laugh at the thought of it.

"Then..?", I said. It is a little bit entertaining.

"Then, Him... i've thought the sweetest person. Where I,  myself, has been dumbfounded of the wrong impression about him. He is the rudest person i've met", she sneered like disgusted with the thought of Zayn.

I gave her an apologetic smile. I just don't know what to say.

"How about me?", I complained.

"And you, the player. Womanizer. The bad boy. We, girls, dissed you out. I mean we decided that you are one of the dangerous guy, undateable"., she continued

Ouch.

"That was so mean to say?!.", I seriously said.

"Yeah, I know. Sorry.", she said as she put her hands together.

"You can't blame us. You date like you're changinh clothes everyday. Tell me, honestly, when did you have a stable relationship Haz? From Taylor Swift which was hot! Then to Kendall who is so phenomenal!", she remained abruptly straight to the point.

"And now you are the one interrogating me, huh?", I smirk. I just don't know how to respond with her accusations with my personal life.

"I am just concern Haz. I am you friend, of course I do care about you.",

Seriously?

My sister and my mum didn't ever said something or telling me what to do.

"But it is the way it was. I just don't know why. I failed for how many attempts to work it out. But it doesn't.", I blurted out.

"But i tried. Trust me, Perrie. I tried. But no spark at all. It happens just for publicity ", I added.

"I guessed I never loved them in a way they should be love. All I know is I'm living my life with full of pleasure with to intention to settle down." I continued.

"But that was before...long time ago. I think I am on my way to gather things around me, behaving what a mature ones do.", I sighed. I can't believe I confessed just like that.

Perrie is listening so eagerly with the confession.

"Wow." She said.

"That's nice of you. Harry you've been showing a good insight and a wonderful refelection from your past. May I add, you are turned into a man. I just hope you can find the person you are looking for.", she added with sincerity in her voice.

I looked at her again. Her blonde hair laying gentle around her shoulder. Her blue ocean eyes, are looking up in the sky. I am watching with full of serenity, she's glowing like a star from above.

I shake my mind to wash what my thoughts thinking about. It can't be that way.

Its wrong. We are friends. She still vulnerable. I can't think about things like that, not right now.

"Look!!! A Shooting star!", Perrie snaps me. She's pointing her finger up the sky, across us.

I closed my eyes, and making a wish. She did it, too.

How I wish....
