Valerie's POV

It's finally time! We exit the limo and a cold gush of wind hits me straight in the face. I shiver and Harry takes my hand, warming it in his own. He slowly pulls me along, and my stomach is full of butterflies. We step through the door and pose for a yearbook photo.  He pulls me to the dance floor and we dance. At first it's kind of awkward but we soon ease into the atmosphere and are having so much fun. 

We go and join the others. I see Isha and Zayn and Niki and her boyfriend and I immediately go to hug them. We all greet each other and stand in a little group just talking. Lauren turns to me.                 "What if they slow the song down? I can't dance! That would be a really awkward aroma!" She said. I burst out laughing immediately. "Uh, Lauren, an aroma is a smell!" I chuckled. She flushed with embarrassment and giggled, covering her mouth with her hand. Liam came and pulled her to the dance floor. The song finished and I was standing on my own with Harry, as everyone else had gone to dance. "So, uh, you having fun?" He asked. I nodded, smiling. "Yeah, thanks for bringing me." I thanked him. He shook his head and told me it was no problem.

"OK everyone, hope your having a good night! We are going to slow things down a little, so guys grab that special lady and bring them to the dance floor!" The DJ says. I glance at Harry and he looks at me nervously, a sheepish smile on his face. The song starts playing and I recognise it as Love Story by Taylor Swift. Great! Way to make it even more awkward! Harry runs his hand through his hair and takes my hand, then moving his down to my waist as i place mine around his neck. We stare into each others eyes as we sway to the music. I am lost in those beautiful green orbs. I realise I have been looking for a while and avert my gaze, suddenly finding the floor very interesting. I feel Harry's eyes burning holes into me and his finger lightly lifted up my chin. 

Harry's POV

"Grab that special lady and get on the dance floor!" The DJ said. I looked down nervously at Val, who looked just as nervous. I took her small hand in mine and pulled her closer, wrapping my arms around her waist as she slid hers around my neck. Love Story began to play and I couldn't help but notice how close we were. I stared into her eyes and she looked back, before noticing what she was doing and averting her gaze to the ground. I smiled and slowly lifted up her chin. She is so beautiful. I thought to myself. She looked into my eyes and I felt myself leaning in. "Guys! Come here!" Zayn yells. We jump apart and I blush, noticing the rosy red cheeks on her face too. Grrr! Always interruptions! We walk over to see Louis doing some weird dance moves with Emily when they suddenly both break into the Pat the Dog and Screw the Light bulb move. We burst out laughing and joined in. It was fun but I was still worked up about our interruption. I wanted to kiss her, to feel her soft lips against mine. "Harry! Earth to Haz!" Isha waved her hand in front of my face. "Oh sorry." I said and looked at her. She gave me a knowing look. "Come on, I'll go request another slow song and you better make a move this time!" She lectured and then walked off towards Zayn, whispering something in his ear and pointing towards me. I averted my gaze and looked at Valerie. She looked so beautiful.  I sighed and walked over to the drink table.

Valerie's POV

He lifted up my chin and we were so intently staring into each others eyes. He began to lean in and so did I, before we were so rudely interrupted. I blushed and looked down. Harry scowled and grabbed my hand as we found ourselves walking towards Louis and Emily doing the weird moves Louis created. I laughed till my sides hurt and then went to get a drink, my thoughts going back to the intense moment between Harry and I. I was disappointed that we were interrupted. I think...I think I wanted to kiss him. His lips looked so soft and luscious and I just couldn't help it. I would probably never get another moment like this again. I sighed and stood by myself with my drink in hand. Isha walked up to me. I smiled. "Hey!" I forced a smile. "Hey whatcha doing here on your own?" she asked, concerned. I shrugged. "Just thinking." She gave me a knowing look. "Harry?" It was more of a statement than a question. I nodded, sighing. She put her arm on my shoulder. "Go for it. You both clearly fancy the pants off each other!" She joked. I giggled, nodding. Suddenly, another slow song came on. Isha smirked and I looked at her, knowing that she had something to do with this. My eyes searched the room for Harry, his gaze meeting mine as he walked over to lead me to the floor. 

"Better late than never!" he chuckled and I giggled at him. I'm such a girl, I know you wouldn't really giggle like that but of course, I did. He placed his hands on the small of my back and I snaked mine around his neck just like before. There was no where else to look, we were inches apart, our foreheads touching. 'I must say, I like this position' I thought to myself. He gave me that heartwarming smile "Do you now?" He chuckled. I blushed. Oh god! I said that out loud! How embarrassing. He chuckled and pulled me closer. I could feel his hot, minty breath on my face. I looked into his eyes as they flickered to my lips then back to my eyes. He lent in and so did I. I felt his soft lips grazing mine at first but I closed the rest of the distance between us as I was engulfed with fireworks. My stomach was going crazy. It was soft and passionate, reminding me of a previous experience...wait! I know this feeling, his lips, so soft and passionate. The husky voice. How did I not realise before! I pulled away and looked up at him "It's you!" I gasped. He looked confused. I quickly explained and a look of realisation came over him. "I have been looking for you for so long!" He said and laughed. I kissed him passionately. I finally found him, my Mr. Mysterious. He was here and he was Harry Styles! I was the happiest girl on earth. We continued to dance the whole night long. Harry drove me home and before I could exit the car, he grabbed my hand. "Val, um, I was wondering if maybe, you would like to um be my girlfriend?" He stumbled and I giggled. I nodded and kissed him reassuring him of my answer. I was Harry's girlfriend. He was my Mr. Mysterious. I shut the front door and leant against it. This has to have been the best night of my life!

Harry's POV

I leant in and grazed her lips, but she closed the gap between our bodies. I was erupted with fireworks and butterflies. She pulled away and gasped. "It's you!" she said and I frowned, confused. She quickly explained and I suddenly realised what she was talking about. I was Mr. Mysterious, and she was the girl who I had been so secretly searching for the past few weeks. This was perfect. I drove her home, grabbing her wrist as she went to exit the car. "Val, um, do you wanna um, be my girlfriend?" I stumbled. Why do I stumble! She is the only one I have ever done that with. She laughed and I thought the worst, before she nodded and kissed me passionately before hopping out and walking inside, waving and closing the door. I closed my eyes, re-living the night. Best. Night. Ever!
