She was standing in the middle of the stage, a long, red dress covering her body and fitting her curves perfectly. A malicious, yet full of innocence smile curled her lips as she watched the audience in front of her. The only spotlight directed on her was soon followed by four other ones, showing the band members to the public. Confused as to what was going on, I turned to look at Harry, seeing the same bewildered expression on his face.

"Ladies and gentlemen" She then spoke in the microphone, getting my attention once again. "We have two special guests tonight, and I want to dedicate this next song to them and their unpredictable relationship." Surprised, I stared at her with wide eyes, I didn't know what to think. I was speechless.

"H-Harry" I started, my voice cracking, but I soon felt his warm and comforting fingers lace with mine under the table. Soon enough, we were both grinning, seeing our friend interpret a song just for us. I've never felt such happiness and love so strongly at the same time, but here I was, having dinner with the man I loved and seeing one of my dearest friend do something so unpredictable, yet amazingly beautiful.

Too early, the song ended and I could feel the tears of happiness threatening to spill. I let them go, seeing how glad Amanda was to see us both joyful because of her, and words couldn't even describe how beautiful Harry was at that moment. It just made me fall in love with him even more.

Oh...How I wish all of that actually happened. But it didn't. Actually, the rest of the night was a complete mess, and if Harry hadn't had that many drinks last night, it sure wouldn't have ended up as disastrous as it did. But it seems like life had many other surprises for me, and the one I got yesterday was totally unexpected. And unwanted, that's for sure.

~ Flashback ~

"What is Amanda doing on stage? Does she sing too?" I ask Harry, surprised yet again to see another thing that she can do. Actually, what can't she do?! He looks at me, the same bewildered expression on his face and I get that he's as confused as me.

"Ladies and gentlemen" She speaks in the microphone, getting our attention back. Five other spotlights suddenly appear, showing the four members of the band that was playing earlier and a tall, blonde girl standing near the lead singer. Harry's hand holding mine suddenly tenses and I glance at him, seeing his eyes opened wide in panic and he gulps, his eyes never leaving the stage. "We have a special performer tonight, please welcome Charlotte Wetscott!"

The people in the restaurant start cheering at the mention of her name and Harry's grip around my fingers tightens, making me flinch and pull away. "Ow, Harry, that hurt!" I whisper, but he doesn't seem to notice me as his eyes stay glued on the tall blonde. I frown, finding his sudden attitude odd and I feel slightly ignored. Isn't it supposed to be a date? Between me and him? Not a performer?

Amanda gives her microphone to the girl, both of them smiling brightly, and walks out of the stage. She spots us and her smile grows even more, if that's even possible, and walks over to our table.

"Kim! Harry!" She hugs us and takes a chair from an empty table, sitting next to us. "How are you guys?"

"Wonderful, the food here is amazing Manda!" I say and she smiles, looking at Harry for his reaction. To my displeasure, his eyes are still on the stage where the performers are preparing the song.

"Harry?" I say and he finally turns to stare at us, looking lost and confused.

"W-What?"

"What's up with you? Are you alright?" I ask, concerned but he just stares at me for a moment before directing his attention on Amanda. Offended, I frown at his weird attitude then glance at the stage. I see that Charlotte girl look at our table, her eyes on my boyfriend.
