Harry

Paparazzi cameras flashed at me as I was escorted to Ellie's car. We had just finished with the show and Ellie texted me telling me to meet her there.

"Hey princess," I sang while climbing in. A smile grew on her face and she looked over.

"You did great today." She told me pulling out of the parking spot.

"Thanks, I feel much better now, Zayn went and paid to get out of the contract." I informed her. "This morning, I don't know how he did it so quickly but apparently it's done."

"What will you tell the fans?" Ellie asked me sounding concerned.

"We're going to tell them the truth." Ellie looked over at me and then back at the road. I sang along with the song that was playing and Ellie started to sing too.

"When you smiled over your shoulder, for a minute I was stone cold sober, I pulled you closer to my chest," I smiled at Ellie and she laughed.

The sky was grey and it was beginning to start raining again. It rarely rains in Hollywood. I placed my hand on Ellie's and looked out the window.

Ellie pulled into a Wendy's drive thru and I grinned like a child. "What would you like Harold?" She asked throwing garbage into the bins.

"Chicken fingers and fries please, with a coke." I pulled my wallet out of my pocket as she ordered the food.

She pulled forward to the second window and rolled down her window again. "Hi, I'm paying with cash." Ellie handed the lady the money and the lady handed her a bag and two drinks.

"I'm paying you back," I told her when we pulled out. She put the $85 dollars on my lap that I had given her earlier.

"No you're not, that's stupid, you bought me lunch on our first date." She stated looking at me through the corner of her eye.

"So?" I objected and ate my fries. "You are beautiful." Her hair was wavy and her makeup was light, matching her casual outfit.

"Stop that," she said looking away with a grin on her face. "You treat me too good."

I smile at her response, "you gotta do what you gotta do." She reached into the bag and took some of her fries.

"What do you mean by that?" She turned on to the main road.

"When you really want something you gotta do what you gotta do to get it." I informed her, wiping my hands on a napkin.

"Mhmm." She hummed while looking at me. "Want to know something?" She said with a slightly nervous tint to her voice.

"What's up?"

"I promised myself I would never like a guy after the last and I'm breaking my promise." She huffed and her cheeks went red. I smiled at her and she looked away, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that." She apologized and I realized I hadn't said anything to her.

"No, it's okay princess, I'm glad to hear it." I wondered what place we were in and I wasn't sure if I should ask. We act like a couple and flirt like one but it's a weird flirt.

"What are we?" I asked out loud and immediately regretted it. She pursed her lips and sighed.

"I'm not sure, unless you make it official, we're just talking." She winked with a smirk on her face and I rolled my eyes jokingly. The car got quiet after the small conversation and I licked my lips.
