It's been a few weeks since we stayed over at the sidemen house and I was planning on asking Madelynn to be my girlfriend. The boys had been helping me make sure the plan was perfect, which it was. Chip and the girls wanted to be involved as well. I was going to initiate it tomorrow.

The past few days had me scared, not going to lie. I felt like I was being followed, watched. I hope I'm not, I don't need that. Who would be following me? I couldn't think of anyone.

I want it to be perfect. I was going to get the girls - Gee, Freya, Emily, Talia and Sarah to take her shopping with the money I've given them to spend on Madelynn. The boys were helping me set up an outdoor dinner on a hill which has an amazing view of the city and its the perfect place for stargazing. The outdoor dinner concerned me, the boys said they had it under control and didnt give me any details, I just had to trust them.

"You excited? We need to buy some things for tomorrow." Simon spoke.

"Madelynn hates shopping so I'm gonna treat her to a rose bath or something like that before the actual plan happens."

"Lets go buy things for it then."

Simon drove us to Westfield to buy some things for tomorrow. Once again, I felt followed and I hated it.

"Do you feel it?" Simon asked, referring to the fear of being followed.

"Yes. It's been going on for a while."

"I feel it too. I'm just praying it's because we haven't done anything in a month."

"I hope it's that too." I sighed.

"Don't worry D, Madelynn will help you forget about everything."

We arrived at Westfield and started shopping. I bought some bath products, candles and rose petals for the bath. I didn't know whether to buy an outfit for Madelynn to wear but I knew the girls would to a good job of it so I wouldn't have to worry.

"What are you cooking for the outdoor dinner? You all left me in the dark and its concerning. Maddie is allergic to nuts, she hates eggs, mushrooms, peas and cauliflower but loves pasta, chicken and fish."

"Thanks for the heads up Josh wanted to do a Doctor Pepper pizza but we're supposed to be getting you together not killing you." Simon laughed.

"Thanks, much appreciated."

"Tobi suggested spaghetti with meatballs and JJ suggested anything chicken so they'll be cooking along with Chip. Ethan said he can get Emily to make desert so they're gonna do that together tomorrow, Emily won't be going shopping. Josh and I are gonna set up on the hill and Vik has decided to take on the designated chauffeur as he wants to spend time with his best friend."

"Thank you, for everything. Thank you for helping me organize everything when I had a breakdown and panicked about this."

"I love you Harry, no homo." He laughed.

"Love you too." I chuckled, I was still worried about tomorrow.

"Relax, she likes you and you like her. It's gonna go to plan."

"Thanks."

Today was the day I was going to ask Madelynn out. I was nervous as hell and I had called Simon twice in the span of eight minutes, he ended up ending the call, saying he was coming over. Simon was a massive life saver.

"Harry!" Simon opened the door and walked in.

"Thank you so much for coming over, I'm so scared and paranoid. I feel like something bad is gonna happen."
