HARRY'S POV:

5:00 was so early to get up. Others may disagree, but for me it is. I love my job don't get me wrong, it's just that the schedule for which I do my job is very consuming. And it's very hard to see your family sometimes and you get home sick or you just miss sleeping in your bed or being with some of your mates that you have back home. But eventually, you get used to the crazy hours and the never really seeing your family, it's still very hard and exhausting, but luckily I've got my four best mates going through the exact same thing with me. So that helps.

This morning Niall being his normal hyper self came and jumped on me this morning to wake me up. I just grumbled at Niall while he was sitting on me saying that it was time to get up. Niall, man that boy is always way to happy and hyper. Haha.

Paul gave us the rundown for today while we were eating breakfast in the suite this morning. He said that in an hour we were to go down to recption and check out and wait in a private room off of the lobby and he would come get us and escort us to our car. Then we were going to be making our way to Los Angeles, California where we would go to our apartment that management had bought for us. And that that apartment is where we would be spending the next year or so while we were doing some recording for the new album and finishing up our last concert there in LA tonight. After the concert tonight we would be free to do whatever for the next year except the times like when we would have to record stuff. But I was completely okay with that set up. Finally some time off. We all needed some time to catch up on our sleep.

Paul then left us to get cleaned up and pack up our items and make our way down to the lobby.

I had just finished up taking my shower and had thrown all of my stuff in my duffle back and started to make my way to the door to catch the lift. On may way walking down the hallway to the lift I was comtemplating wether I should go knock on Shay's door and see if shes awake. But I decided not to. She would think I was like some weird stalker that was obsessed with her. So I didn't. I got to the lobby and went to the front desk where I paid for my room in cash and under a fake name. Then a light bult flickered on inside of my brain.

I was going to pay for Shay's room. I guess it's like kind of my way of flirting with her if that makes sense. I'm doing it because she seems like such a neat girl and down to earth. Oh and don't forget that shes abesolutley beautiful.

I told the receptionist that I was going to pay for another room too and she gave me a puzzling look. Not exactly understanding why I was going to be paying for two rooms instead of one, but she didn't bother to question me.  I told her Shay's name and told her she was staying on the 20th floor and I took out my card and payed for her room. Then a brillant idea came to my mind yet again.

"If you don't mind me asking, do you think you have a pen and a piece of paper that I could use please?" The women fumbled through a couple of drawers until she pulled out a tiny slip of paper and took a pen out from the mug holding them.

I nodded and said "Thank you" I stood there at reception writing the note.

Shay,

You are beautiful to no extent and I hope that maybe I'll get the chance of seeing you again soon. Oh and it was me who payed for your room the other night and don't worry I paid for it again this morning too. But don't get mad or think I'm some weird stalker or something because I'm not. Or at least I dont think so. Haha well I hope to be seeing you soon.

Harry xo.  

I finished up the note and folded it in half and kindly asked the receptionist that when a girl named Shay came down to pay for her room to give the note to her and tell her that somebody who always seems to be bumping into you left a message for you. The receptionist nodded her head and she said she would give Shay the note. I only hoped that there wasn't another Shay that stayed at this hotel checking out this morning.

SHAY'S POV:

I woke up this morning to the light seeping in throught the blinds on the window. It took me a while to get up out of bed and I had to stretch my limbs and yawn before I fully got up. I was so excited to finally get to California today. I've been waiting so long to feel happy and content.

I eagerly got up and took a shower, grabbed my belongings and tossed them into my bag and started to make my way to the elevator.  As I was rounding the corner I saw the elevator doors shut. Ugh I just missed it oh well. I seriously stood outside of the elevator for a good 5 minutes until the elevator finally came back up to the 20th floor. It took forever. But soon enough I got down to the lobby and strolled over to the check out desk.

When I got over there the receptionist asked me for my name and I told her who I was and when I told her that my name was 'Shay' a weird smiled appeared upon her face. Haha kinda creepy. She said that somebody that I had kept bumping into left me a note. Without a another word she pulled open a drawer and handed me a folded up note with my name on the front of it. Yep definitley spooky.

I stepped off to the left of the desk and opened the note up.  The note read:

Shay,

You are beautiful to no extent and I hope that maybe I'll get the chance of seeing you again soon. Oh and it was me who payed for your room the other night and don't worry I paid for it again this morning too. But don't get mad or think I'm some weird stalker or something because I'm not. Or at least I dont think so. Haha well I hope to be seeing you soon.

Harry xo.  

It took my brain a couple of seconds to fully process what I had just read. Wait so Harry the boy I had bumped into the past two nights had paid for my room. It warmed my heart and I could picture the Harry and a small smile/smirk playing across his lips, the same one from last night. And I found it quite funny to think that he hoped I wouldn't think he was a weirdo or rapist or something. I didn't think this action was at the least bit creepy, if anything it was too nice. But regardless it was probably one of the nicest thing somebody has done for me in a long time. I wish there was someway that I could thank him. I then flipped the note upside down to see a small 10 digit number written on the back. It was his number. I hardly even knew him but his actions were just so genuine and cute. I loved it and the note it was seriously too cute. 

I took out my phone and typed his number into my contacts and saved it in my phone under 'Harry'. I was just out to type out a message for him to thank him for his kind gestures when something caught my eye.

It was Harry's face on a magazine that was sitting on top of a brown coffee table in the lobby.
