Harry;

"Lou, where are we going?" I whine as he drags me along through the streets.

He turns to face me, a huge grin plastered to his face, as he continues to walk backwards.

"I told you, it's a surprise!" he says, laughing when I pout. I hate not knowing stuff, it drives me crazy.

"C'mon we're almost there anyways." He says, turning back around.

After a few more minutes, we come to a stop outside of a small cafe. The smell of coffee and baked goods floods my senses and brings a smile to my face.

"What's this?" I ask.

"There's a show tonight," Louis says, "Some new band..I forget the name, but I thought it would be fun to just come out and have a good time."

I smile at Louis, which earns me a laugh and a kiss to the forehead. We go inside the small shop, which has the lights dimmed low and a stage set up at the back. There are already a lot of people here. Louis quickly introduces me to the owner of the cafe, his friend Stan, and somehow manages to find us a table near the front. A waitress soon comes and we place our order. Then we wait for the show to begin.

Pretty soon the lights dim even further and Stan comes up on stage.

"Good evening guys, how's everyone doing tonight?" he says, receiveing a chorus of anwers from the crowd.

"Alright, alright. Well, thank you all for coming out. We have some special guests here to play a few songs for you guys. They're a bit on the younger side but their music is fantastic, I promise! So I'll quit talking now I guess. Give it up for 5 Seconds of Summer!"

"No way!" I shout, "I can't believe this!"

"What?" Louis says, clearly puzzled by my reaction, until four boys make their way onto the stage.

"Hey guys! Huge thanks to Stan for letting us play here tonight. For those of you who don't know us, we're 5 Seconds of Summer. I'm Luke, over here on guitar is Michael, the goof with the bass is Calum and back there on drums is Ashton." Luke says scanning the crowd. His eyes land on me and I wave and flash a thumbs up, making him laugh. All I can think then is 'thank god he's ok'.

I've been worried sick all day, ever since the phone call from Bruce. But thinking about it only leads me to wonder how long he'd been following Luke..or if he was still following him now.

With the last thought, I anxiously look around. I jump when I feel a hand on my shoulder, relaxing when I see who it belongs to.

"Hey, what's wrong? You seem really panicked, Harry." Louis says, the concern in his voice obvious.

I glance back up to the stage, where the boys are beginning to play their first song, before looking back to Louis.

"Nothing! I'm fine Lou..I was just wondering where our waitress was with our food, I'm starving!" I say, praying he won't question me any further.

He looks at me a little skeptically, as if wondering what was up with me, before smiling and shaking his head, seemingly dismissing his doubt. I breathe a small sigh of relief and we both turn our attention back to the stage.

A little while later, our food comes. I throw a french fry at Luke just to see how he reacts. He doesn't miss a beat, but he sticks his tongue out at me once he finishes singing his part. Louis and I laugh pretty hard at that.

As the night goes on, I end up getting closer and closer to Louis, eventually ending up with my head on his shoulder and his arm around me. The boys finish out the night with a song called "Beside You" and I cant help but relate the song to my feelings for Louis.
