PERSONAL IMAGINE

NIGHT WALK

                                                We all stand in front of our teacher as she announces that we are going to do a night walk. Since the school year is almost over, we decided to go camping with the whole class and now here I am, stuck in the middle of nowhere, about to start a night walk. I'm not very fond of this idea because I don't really like the dark.

 "Okay, you can choose a partner for the night walk on your own. When you found one you come back to me and I give you the map," Our teacher yells, "I hope you all brought your flash lights and a jacket. Please take your phone with you in case you get lost."

 Everyone is now talking to their friends and so am I. But when I was about to ask my friend if we want to go in a group, I feel a light tap on my shoulder. After I spun around I see my crush in front of me. Harry Styles.

 "Michelle?" Harry asks and I nod, "Do you wanna...go with me? I have a flash light." Harry says shyly and my jaw drops a bit.

 "Uh, I don't..." I start and turn around to my friends who encouragingly nod, "Yes sure, Harry."

 "Okay, I'm gonna go get the map. Don't leave, yeah?"

 "Okay." I answer and see Harry hurrying over to our teacher. With wide eyes I turn around to my friends who start freaking out and already envision the wildest scenes that could happen to Harry and me while we are walking through the woods and the dark city. A few minutes later and Harry is back at my side. 

 "Guys, be quiet please," Our teacher starts yelling again, "You can go now. The route we have planned should take about one hour."

 Everyone starts leaving our goes over the map with their partner. But Harry and I just stand awkwardly in front of each other. "Maybe we should follow them first, so we kinda have a plan where to go."

 "Good idea," Harry mumbles, "Are you any good in reading maps?"

 I laugh, "No, not really. You?"

 "No," Harry chuckles, "But I have a flash light."

 "At least we have a flash light." I laugh and maybe this won't become as awkward as I at first thought it would be.

 "Admit it, Harry, we are lost," I say and walk up to the tree with the little paper on, "This tree says '6' and guess what? We passed this tree like three times already. We're supposed to see a '7'."

 Harry sits on the floor and the little map in front of him. He stares at it and plays with his bottom lip. If I weren't so scared, I would probably just stand there and admire him.

 "Maybe I should call them and say we're lost?" Harry suggests and looks up at me, "I really don't know where to go and I don't want us to get lost, somewhere, where they can't find us."

 "Okay, call them." I nod and tighten my jacket around my body when a cold gust of wind hits me. I lean against a tree and slowly slide down until I sit on the hard ground. Tears are already brimming in my eyes because everywhere I look I see scary looking trees and things that aren't there. I hate the dark.

 "I called them and someone's gonna pick us up in about twenty minutes." Harry tells me as he stands in front of me. I pat the place next to me and Harry quickly sits down, his shoulder brushing mine.

 After a bit of sitting Harry asked me if I were cold and I nodded, whereupon Harry put his arm around me and I was pressed against his warm body. His hand is rubbing my arm up and down in an attempt to warm me up but it doesn't really work.

 "Hey, you're still awake?" Harry asks quietly.

 "Yeah." I mumble and Harry shifts around a bit so he can look at me but still hold me close to his warm body.

 "I asked you to do this with me because I wanted to tell you something."

 "Oh." I response and Harry positions the flash light so I can see his face and he can see mine without the light blinding us, "What is it?"

 Harry takes a deep breath, "This isn't really how I planned this. Well, actually didn't even have a plan. And I'm sorry you're freezing now and you look scared. But you can be sure that I'm gonna protect you, yeah? There is nothing to be scared about and—"

 "Harry," I interrupt him, giggling, "I have a feeling this isn't what you wanted to tell me."

 "No, actually it isn't." Harry whispers and scratches his neck. He opens his mouth a bit and looks like he is finally going to tell me. My heart beats a bit faster than before as I'm excitedly wait for whatever he has to tell me.

 But instead of speaking with me, Harry leans forward and kisses me. His free hand, the one that isn't holding my arm, cups my cheek as his cold yet so soft and warm lips press against mine. For a second I'm too surprised to return the kiss but I soon realize that I should enjoy this.

 When Harry slightly pulls away, my lips form into a huge smile, "You still haven't told me what you wanted to tell me." I tease him and hear Harry chuckle.

 "I...I really like you," Harry whispers as his thumb traces over my bottom lip, "I have a crush on you for, like, forever, I guess. I was just too shy to tell you otherwise I would have told you earlier. And I thought, hey this partner work thing is really good because we would be alone and I could play the protector and you'd like me for protecting you but it...it didn't quite work out like this."

 "I already like you, anyway." I say and squeeze his hand that rests intertwined with mine on my thigh. Harry beams and not only because of the flash light that is illuminating his face.

 "Do you want to be my girlfr—"

 "Harry? Michelle?" A deep voice interrupts us and we both turn our heads to see our teacher in front of us, "Come, stand up and get in the car. The other's are already waiting."

 Hastily, we both stand up. I take Harry's hand on our way to the car and whisper in his ear, "I'd love to be girlfriend."
