*Harry's POV*

I recused her from Liam. Let her sleep in my flat. I'm letting her stay here. I'm taking her shopping for clothes and what not. Why am I doing this? Because her deep emerald eyes warm me to the core. I really want to get to know her. Her blonde hair is so soft. She smelled of lavender and peaches. Her cheeks were naturally pink, and earlier I made them turn a deep rosy red. I wonder if she thinks like this about me too?

I patiently waited outside the door, unable to get the sight of her in a towel out of my head. I get impatient and knock.

"Ready?"

"Yea."

I walk in and see her. She looks great even though she has my shirt and her dirty shorts on. My eyes roam her body hungrily.

Harry.

Stop.

You have to get to know her.

She walks past me and I whisper and a seductive tone, "Stunning."

I follow her to the kitchen.

"Wait I have to get something," I tell her while I run to the closet in my room. Helmet. I wonder if she remembers my motorcycle.

I hand it to her and she gives me a look. Guess not. I smile cheekily and walk through the door. She follows behind me to the elevator and down to the parking lot. Right next to the entrance stands my beautiful bike. The sleek black paint is all new and super shiny.

With ease, I slid onto the bike and nod towards her. She slipped on the helmet and sat behind me. Her arms quickly found my waist again like they did last night. I felt her lean closely against me as the machine roared to life. Her head leaned against my shoulder as we sped down the streets to the mall.

We parked further away from the building because I didn't want to have my bike close to a bunch of cars and people.

"Remember, money isn't an issue. Get what you like. I'll just follow you around like a dog because I have nothing better to do. The first thing is getting you a phone because I need to be in contact with you. Then we can go wherever." I already started to sound like an overprotective boyfriend.

"Okay. I don't feel great about spending all your money so I'll try for cheap stuff." She said looking up at me. One thing I really liked about her was because she was tall. I'd say about 5'9''. It would be different having a taller girlfri-

Harry. Slow down. You have to get to know her.

I had a feeling I'd say this a lot to myself today.

She walked in front of me leading me through many stores. We went into one store, and she came out with $200 worth of clothes. Not that I was mad. She got a lot of stuff for only $200. Next we went to a shoe store.

"Are you sure I'm not spending too much?" she said quietly.

"Yes. I have plenty. Go ahead."

She bought two pairs of shoes and some combat boots. She got a black pair of All Star converse and orange Chuck Taylors.

"Did you get orange because that's my favorite color?"

"Yeah. I just didn't know what other color to get."

"Get a pair of flip flops. Also, let's go get you a pretty dress and a bathing suit, hm?"

"Okay."

I grabbed her hand and led her into a store with expensive clothes. She hesitated, but I dragged her inside. I wanted the best for her.

She spent two hours going into the dressing room, putting on dresses and bikinis, and showing me. I eventually helped her decide on a strapless short black dress that stopped mid thigh and a dark red bikini that brought out the green in her eyes.

"Can we go to Sephora?"

I rolled my eyes and laughed. "Whatever you want."

She ran to the store across the plaza and immediately started to pick things up.

I caught up with her.

"I know exactly what to get, so this won't take long."

"Okay."

She smiled a sweet smile that made my insides melt.

Once she finished and I paid, we walked out of the mall carrying a bunch of bags.

"Oh my god. How are we gonna get this home?"

She called it home. I liked that.

"Somehow." I chuckled.

*****

We eventually got home with all of her bags. I helped her carry everything up and it was already 8pm when we finished unpacking everything.

"Thank you so much." She hugged me tightly. "For everything."

I embraced her back feeling her warmth made me feel at home.

"I know we don't know each other too well yet, but..." I paused looking down at my black boots.

"But?"

"Never mind. It would ruin everything."

"Harry, what is it?"

"I just- What would you do if I kissed you?"

"I- I guess there's only one way to find out..." she said. I turned my head to look at her. My hands found her waist and she put her arms around my neck.

Her soft lips clashed with mine. I have never felt so safe and warm before. She made me feel so happy. No girl has ever done this to me before. She sent electricity through my whole body.

Then there was a knock on the door. She reluctantly pulled away, her eyes still closed. I hoped she felt the same way I did. I walked towards the door and through the peep hole. Liam was standing there. He had dark bags under his eyes. His eyes were red and puffy as if he had been crying. His cheeks were stained with tears.

"It's- it's Liam. Go hide in the closet. Lock the door to the closet and to the bedroom door. I'll tell you when he's gone."

She stood there shocked.

"Go!" I shouted. She ran off and I waited until I heard the door lock before opening the door between me and Liam.

"Where. Is. She." He spat.

"Man, I don't know. She left this morning after sleeping here. I didn't even get to learn her name."

"Bull." He snarled. "Give her back to me." He grabbed my shirt by the collar. I pushed him back making him fall the the floor. His breath reeked of alcohol.

"Liam. You're drunk. Go home."

"No! Not 'til I have her!"

"No!" I shoved him out the door and kicked him into the elevator pressing the button for the lobby. I watched him wince in pain before the doors closed.

Before telling Reine he was gone, I called and told the lobby not to allow Liam Payne up. If he came by, they were to call the cops.

Once I finished that I went to my bedroom door.

"Reine, he's gone." I heard her open the closet door before coming to the one standing between us.

"Are you sure." she said quietly. I could barely hear her.

"Yes."

She opened the door and immediately collapsed into my arms. She had tears streaming down her face.

"Shh. Don't cry. He won't come back. Shh." I rocked her as I sat on the floor. I picked her up and laid her in bed. I was about to leave when she said something.

"Harry?"

"Yea?"

"Stay with me?"

"Sure."

"You don't have to stay the whole time. You can go after I fall asleep."

"Shh." I laid next to her. She curled up against me. I listened to her breaths even out, and I took in her lavender scent and fell asleep myself.
