London Calling in the City of Evil

Harry's POV

We were all bundled up in the jet after the show and I was sat in the back next to Max. It didn't take us long to be huddled together with her legs thrown over my lap and my arm thrown over her shoulders. I quite like being cuddled up with her like this. She smells nice and fits perfectly against me.

"So what's the name of the place we're going" She asked.

"Chiltern Firehouse." I said. "It's a restaurant."

"Gotcha, okay." She nodded. "I could go for some food. I'm starved." She said.

"Good because their food is amazing." I nodded. Suddenly Max's phone began to ring and we both looked down and saw 'Matt' and a picture of her and a guy I recognized as the lead singer of Avenged Sevenfold.

"Hello?" She asked putting the call on speakerphone.

"Max!"

"Matty! How are you?" She asked. I couldn't help but notice the way she just lit up when they began talking.

"I'm good. We have our time slot at 1 am so we're resting up before we go on." My eyes widened as I thought about having to perform a full set at 1 in the morning.

"You know people will still be awake and ready to rock the fuck out!" She said

"Hopefully yeah." He agreed.

"You should come to London after your set." Max said.

"What do you mean come to London?" He asked.

"I'm headed to London for a few days, you should come join me." Max pleaded.

"I thought we were meeting in France?"

"Change of plans." She said simply. I stifled my laugh as she mouthed 'oh shit' with wide eyes and I realized she must've forgotten their plans.

"So I have to change mine?" He asked.

"Then I'd have to tell Val you wouldn't meet me." She said trying to sound threatening.

"You can tell her that after you tell her you changed the plans last minute." He countered.

"Matty, don't be difficult. Just come to London." She pleaded.

"Where are we going to stay?" He questioned and I held back a laugh as Max rolled her eyes.

"London has plenty of hotels you know. I'm sure you could even find one last minute." She sassed.

"They can stay here at my house." I found myself saying before I even realized it.

"Who was that?" He asked.

"Harry." I said speaking up.

"Harry...the one in the band?" He questioned.

"That's me." I said.

"Is that where you're staying Max?" He asked.

"I am." She confirmed.

"Hm." He said.

"It's settled then!" She cheered. "Hop on a plane after you rest up from your set and I'll text you Harry's address." He agreed and she wished him luck before hanging up.

We were quiet for the remainder of the flight and once we landed we were quickly ushered into a waiting car where I told the driver my address.

"This is it." I said as we stepped into the entryway.

"I see construction has ended. Wrapped up nicely." She smirked at me. I flushed as I remembered my excuse from that night in my car.
