"The Only Way I Know" (A Harry Styles Fanfiction)

Chapter 15

SHAY'S POV:

Five o'clock rolled around and I decided that I should start getting ready for my date. I was seriously beyond excited, it was almost ridiculous. I need to start getting ready, or my head and heart are going to explode.

I made my way to the bathroom and since I took a shower this morning, I figured I didn't need to take another one, it would be pointless. I reached out and pulled out the drawer of my makeup case that had my foundation in it and started applying a light biege color to my face and rubbing it in. Soon after I took out my naked basics pallet and started applying the color Venus to just above my crease and the color Naked 2 to my lid. I was going for a brown smokey eye I guess.

Once I was done I applied some liquid black eyeliner and finished it up by adding some macara to my lashes. I took a look in the mirror and was satisfied with what I saw, so I moved onto my hair.

Hmmm what to do? I don't really know. Am I going for the straight look or the curly look? Got it. I'm going to do some like beachy waves. They really don't take long to do and it looks so effortless, I like that look. I took out my curling wand and wrapped a peice of my brown hair around it, only for a few seconds to get the look I was aiming for and let go of the hair and let it fall back down to my shoulder.

After about another 15 minutes my hair was complete. I loved my hair, it looked especially good today. I was very impressed by myself. Now onto the next thing. What am I going to wear. I literally have no clue at all. Was the date going to be fancy and formal or layed back and relaxed. Ahhh I don't know. I went over to my closet and started rummaging it looking for something that has both of those qualities. I came across a black silky shirt that had mid-quarter length sleeves. This could do. I found a white cami and slipped it on and threw the black shirt on top. Not too bad.  I then spotted a pair of jeans that were like black and grey, but they were really washed out. I pulled them off the hanger and slipped the up my legs, wiggly my legs in the process of trying to put them on. They had to be jeggings, or course.

Once I got them on I zipped up my pants and tucked into my shirt. Mmm I like it, alot, but it needs something, but what? That's when I looked over at my dresser and spotted my new jewlrey set my mom had bought me a couple of weeks before I left. The necklace was very simple, it just had a black stone at the end, almost tear drop shaped and there was a ring and a bracelet that matched. It was perfect, simple, but effective. It worked. I put them all on and looked in the mirror. Yep, this is the outfit.

Just then the clocked went off noting it was 6:45. Omg I have 15 minutes. I hurriedly finished getting ready and putting on my shoes. Just as I was about to turn off my bedroom light, the doorbell rung. I ran to the door to answer it. Right before I opened it I had to take a deep breath and exhale because I was so nervous.

I opened it and there he was. He looked effortlessly attractive. He doesn't even have to try. Oh and I personally high-fived myself because he was dressed the same way as me, slightly casual, slightly dressed up. Perfect.

"Hi." He spoke and his accent dragged me in.

"Hey, um you can come in, I just have to grab my purse and we can go." I looked up to him and he nodded.  "Okay, I'll be right back." He nodded. Just as I turned by back to walk away he stopped me by grabbing my hand.

"Erm, I just wanted to tell you that you look very beautiful." I blushed at his sweet words and gave his hand a little squeeze.

"Thanks. And you don't look bad yourself." I gave a wink and he smiled showing his dimples and I made my way to my room to grab my purse.

I ermerged from the room like two seconds later to find Harry sitting on my couch waiting for me. He stood up upon me entering the room.

"Ready to get going?" I nodded my head and we made our way to the door. As we were walking, I felt Harry's hand on the small of my back. I smiled.

We walked down the steps and he opened my door for me. Nobody back home has ever done that for me before. I gave him a puzzled look. He answered my expression by talking.

"Love, get in. Haha it's the kind thing to do and since I am a gentlemen, I'm opening up the door for you. So get in." I laughed and got in the car, he closed the door for me after I got in. I smiled at his simple gesture. For him it may be a normal thing but for me it made my heart tingle.

He got in the car shortly after and put the keys into the ignition and started the car. He turned his head to look at me and smiled.

"Okay Shay, get ready for the best night of your life." With that he looked out the window and made his way onto the road,  leaving me thinking about what Harry had in store for us tonight.
