Candice's POV
We drove off of the park, towards my house. The car ride was mostly silent except the music that was being played on the radio. Harry is probably the only person, who manages to make me feel comfortable, even in silence.

It was pure bliss, being in a car at almost midnight, cool breeze was blowing outside, which just added to the positivity of the atmosphere around.

Suddenly my cell phone beeped. It wasn't a call or message. It was my alarm.

"Why do you have an alarm for 12 AM, Rose?" Harry asked me.

"Um.. It might sound kinda funny to you." I felt little embarrassed.

"I promise I won't laugh." He said with a chuckle

"It's umm.. It's just that I believe in the beauty of beginnings. The new day kick starts at 12, So I pray at 12 AM, in a hope that the new day brings positivity in my life and new reasons to be grateful about." I explained.

Harry didn't say anything, he just looked at me with a smile plastered on his face.

"What? I told you, you'd find it funny." I said, feeling embarrassed.

"There's nothing funny about it Rose. It's just that it's hard to believe that people like you still exist in this world. You continue to amaze me every single time. Everything about you is so different, so pure and so serene." He said, with a genuine smile.

"Umm..thank you, maybe?" I chuckled a bit, not knowing what to say.

He laughed too. Soon we reached my place.

"Come, I'll walk you to the door." He said, opening the passenger seat's door.

"Thank you Harry. Come with me, I'll introduce you to my brother." I said.

I rang the door bell and Liam opened the door, almost instantly.

"Oh! There you are Candy. I was waiting for you only. Had fun?" He greeted me with a huge smile.

"Yes Liam. Today was fun. Anyway, meet my friend Harry."

Harry shook hands with him and introduced himself.

"Hey. I'm Harry Styles. Nice to meet you."

"Hey Harry. I'm Liam, Candice's brother. Come on in. Join us for a cup of tea or coffee." Liam offered.

"Thank you so much for the offer Liam, but it's already past midnight. My mom would be waiting for me. But I assure you, I'll join you for coffee very soon. I should probably leave. Good night." He said.

"Sure mate. Good night. Hope to see you soon."

"Good night to you too Rose. See you at school tomorrow." Harry said.

"Good night Harry."

With that, he left and I was telling Liam about the night. He was so excited and happy to know about the party. So I told him all about the party and some things that happened after that.

"Harry seems like a good guy to me. I like him already. Specially after knowing what all he did for you today." He winked at me.

"Oh! Stop it Liam. You know there's nothing that between me and Harry."
