Harry and I were both standing at the front door, staring at eachother.

"Wh-what are you doing here?" I stuttered, as I followed Harry's eyes sliding up and down my body. I started to feel uncomfortable, when I realized that I was only wearing a towel to cover up my body.

"I-I came here to apologize.." He said and looked down on his feet.

"For what?" I asked unsure while looking at him.

It took him a second to answer my question.

"Everything." He handed me the flowers and went off just like that. My eyes followed Harry going to his car and sat inside, leaving me in confusion.

I was confused.

Harry was confusing.

My life was confusing.

My thoughts were everywhere, when it hit me that I had to be at work in 20 minutes.

"Shit." I cursed, I put the flowers in a vase then quickly running upstairs.

I had only worked 2-3 times since I got the job, and that wasn't really a lot if you thought about it. But since I also moved here and got the job, my mind had been on everything else. Harry, Luke and all the studying. I know that was a lame excuse, but it was hard.

I opened my closet and looked at all the options. It was from a fancy dress to casual outwear.

I had a red bra and panties I hadn't been wearing before, so I wore them.

The struggle with finding sexy bras, when nobody's gonna see them anyway..

I shook my head and a laugh escaped from my mouth.

I could be very stupid sometimes.

I took the white plain t-shirt and some pants and hurried wear them.

I walked towards the mirror as I watched my reflection. I didn't wear make up and my hair needed to be blowdried.

Blowdrying and curling my hair made me feel a lot more confident than usual. Normally I would be unsure about myself, and I hadn't curled my hair in a long long time. I put on make up and chose to wear my leather jacket.

I went downstairs and came out to the beautiful sunny weather. I started walking.

As I entered the store, Harry was already working and his eyes darted towards my direction. He quickly looked down again and a smile was spread across my face.

I took my jacket off and put on my sign and started working.

A box with cds was already in sight and ready for me to pick it up. My hand quickly took a cd when I heard my boss yell my name.

"Emily!" He yelled again. I ran towards him and my heart started racing fast. I was scared when I saw his red face staring at me. I started to feel uncomfortable when his mood changed into an amusing smile.

"Look at you being late," his thumb was on my cheeks sliding up and down.

"And the other day you didn't even show up?" He said and let out a fake sigh.

My heart was racing and my feet were almost shaking. I looked down and his hand reached up, cupping my chin and tilting it up, making me look at his face.

"I think you owe me and apology." He said.

"I-I'm sorr-"

"Shh," he cut me off and placed his finger on my lips.
