Chapter 4: Trust

Kate’s P.O.V

I can’t believe how amazing my birthday has been so far. I met One Direction, hugged my dream man, sat front row at their concert and now going to dinner with them, I can’t even comprehend how I’ll ever get over this. We all sit in the car on the way to the restaurant telling jokes and laughing about what the boys did on stage. “That was one of the best concerts I’ve had in a long time” Harry says with a grin, “Not because Rhiannon was in the audience or anything, right Harry?” I ask without thinking adding a wink. “OOOOOoooooo” all the boys chime in sync but Rhiannon just glares at me but I can see her trying not to smile. We finally park and get out at the restaurant; “Upstairs” I read on the sign, I’ve never heard of this place but looks cool. We have to go up a flight of stairs with vines on the railings and when we reach the top I gasp at the view. It sits over the river and the city lights look so pretty on the river, I can’t believe I’ve never been here. “Good evening, I’ll show you to your table” says a lady and leads us to the one with the best view, not even realising she is serving One Direction. I look over at Rhiannon and she seems sad.

Rhiannon’s P.O.V

“What’s wrong?” Kate whispers to me on our way to the table. “Everyone looks so nice and I’m just wearing leggings.” I reply looking down at my outfit. “Luckily you’re friends with me and I always pack an extra outfit just in case” Kate replies pulling me into the bathroom. She pulls out this leather dress and pushes me into a cubical. It is really tight but seems to fit quite nicely and then she chucks me a pair of red heels, I have no idea how she brought everything in one bag but I just do as I’m told and put them on. “OMG, Rhi your boobs look amazing” she says as I step out of the cubical. I just shake my head at her and take my hair out of the bun and fluffing it up a bit and then just slightly reapplying my make-up. “Damn, who’s the hot one now?” she winks at me as we exit the toilet. As we walk over to the table Zayn, Liam and Louis look up at us and gasp, “What took you so long I’m starv…” He stops and stares at us, Harry takes a sip of water before sitting it out onto Liam when looking at us. “Oi mate, what’s the deal” Liam says but Harry doesn’t reply. “Umm, sorry I just had to change to fit the scene.” I say apologetically. “Umm, you look, umm” Harry tries to say. “Harry told us you were hot but damn!” Louis says. I just laugh and blush as I sit down at the table, conveniently next to Harry, while Kate just winks at me taking a seat next to Niall. “Hello, I’m Andy and I’ll be you’re…” He stops as he looks up at me and stares. I shift uncomfortably; I don’t like so many people staring.

Harry’s P.O.V

Rhiannon looks bloody amazing and I’m not the only one that has noticed. This waiter just keeps staring clearly not at her eyes and it’s obviously making her uncomfortable. I clear my throat trying to get his attention. “So you going to take our order now or?” Niall says loudly. “Yeah, sorry,” he says blushing slightly. He takes everyone’s orders, leaving Rhiannon’s last of course. “And for you gorgeous” he says winking at her, my fists clench under the table trying to not make anyone notice. “Umm, just the Greek salad please.” She says hesitantly. He nods and walks away to place our order, finally. “Douche” I say under my breath. Rhiannon giggles, obviously able to hear me. When our food finally arrives he places everyone’s down politely and leaves without another word which was a relief, I didn’t know how much I could take of this guy.

We all finish our meals, and I must say it was pretty good. The waiter comes up to collect our plates “Is there anything else I can get you?” He says looking at Rhiannon clearly not talking to anyone else. “I think we’re good thanks” she says trying not to notice him. He leans closer to her, “not even dessert?” he says licking his lips. She leans back slightly into me; I jump up ready to smash this guy. “No thanks we’re leaving” Liam quickly says trying to contain the situation and Zayn races over and pays, knowing that we need to get out now before I lose it. We all stand up and leave, while I glare as I pass the waiter, watching he doesn’t try anything. As we step outside we hear the overwhelming but familiar sound of screaming. We all look over the edge of the stairs and see hundreds of screaming fans. I wouldn’t care as much but I know that Kate and Rhiannon aren’t use to it and we can all clearly see the fear in their eyes.

Rhiannon’s P.O.V

I’m actually so scared when we step outside. I can’t make it past all these people. I just stand there not ready to step out into the massive crowd. The boys nod at each other, Kate fixes her hair quickly, loving the attention as always and Niall takes her hand leading her down the stairs so she doesn’t fall. She simply walks past the screaming crowd not even paying attention to them with her head held high and Niall by her side. The boys follow except Harry who stays next to me, able to see that I’m terrified. I wish I had Kate’s confidence. I mean there are security guards everywhere so we are safe but I just don’t feel safe at all. “Do you trust me?” Harry asks looking into my eyes. I nod, unable to speak still quite scared. He places his jacket over my shoulders and wraps his arm around my shoulders holding me to him as we make our way down the stairs. I immediately feel safe, like I’m completely protected and nothing can hurt me. I lean in closer to him as we walk past all the paparazzi and fans, I don’t know how they do this every night. He just holds me tighter until we reach the car and closes the door behind us where all of the others are waiting.

I sigh as we are finally past that whole fiasco back there. I sit next to Harry in the car while we all continue talking about random things and we finally reach our house, I assume Kate told the driver the address while waiting for me. Kate and Niall have been holding hands since we left the restaurant; I guess dreams do come true. Kate says her goodbyes and walks over to our house. “I’ll walk you over” Harry smiles as I exit the door, I wave to everyone and Harry and I make our way to the front door. “Thank you for everything tonight Harry.” I smile up at him. “You’re welcome, I hope you had fun” He returns my smile. “I did. Well goodnight.” I say standing on my tippy toes to kiss him on the cheek before rushing inside the door, feeling slightly embarrassed.

Niall’s P.O.V

“What’s taking him so long” I ask the other boys while we wait for Harry to get back. “I dunno, maybe she fell or something.” Zayn shrugs “but what’s the deal with you and Kate?” he says wiggling his eyebrows. I chuckle, “She pretty sweet and confident but not overly which is good. She’s so beautiful and actually really funny. It feels like I’ve known her for ages. I guess, I dunno but I know I want to see her again.” I sigh. “Aww” the boys sing fluttering their eyelashes. “Shut up guys” I say slightly embarrassed. Suddenly the door opens and Harry steps in the car. The driver starts the car and we all stare at Harry waiting for him to spill the beans on anything that happened but he just sits there staring out of the window, with a massive smile on his face. Ok something definitely happened but I’ll ask him about it later because I know he won’t tell us right now, he is in his own little bubble…

Harry’s P.O.V

She kissed me on the cheek. How his someone so adorable but so incredibly hot at the same time? I just wanted to hold her for ages, maybe I should take her out more often. She’s really funny and treats me like a normal human. But most of all she said trusts me and I believe her…
