7- Best Gift Wins

Turned out Nova wasn't able to spend the night yesterday so I ended up at home alone, bored. But today's a new day and its also my birthday! Sleeping in until two I wake up, check my phone, and find no messages. Weird, the boys must still be asleep, paying no mind to it I hop in the shower and get dressed.

Wearing a dark green skirt reaching just above my knees, I paired it with a black long sleeve turtleneck and leopard heels, grabbing a small black clutch I finished the look with black sunglasses.

Checking my phone again, my heart dropped when I saw no missed calls or texts, what if they had forgotten, signing I try calling them all, but no one answered.

Deciding to head to the studio I walk out my front door, knowing I'd find my brother there. But once I arrived I had no luck, staring into the empty room I felt tears about to spill over, "Hey Zara."

Jumping a bit I turn around to find Harry standing behind me, "Its Lincoln's day off so he won't be in" he says at the end of the hall, making his way over to me "Happy birthday by the w-"

"Wait whats wrong?" he asks noticing my mood.

"How did you know its my birthday?" I ask wiping the tears away.

"Lincoln mentioned it a couple of weeks ago" he answered looking me in the eyes, "Are you okay?"

Shaking my head I begin to cry, "I think my friends forgot its my birthday."

"Oh love, how could anyone ever forget about you?" he asks as I bite my lip, this has officially been the worst birthday.

"I'm just going to head home" I say apologizing for the bother.

"Zara you could never bother me" he said smacking his lips together in disapproval, "Tell you what I'll cancel my meetings for the day and we'll go do whatever you want."

"That's really sweet of you Harry bu-"

"No one should be alone on their birthday" he states as I reluctantly agree.

"Only if its no problem..."

"Heavens no, its not" he says, taking out his phone he shoots  a quick text and smiles up at me, "Meetings are canceled, I'm yours for the day."

I smile and laugh at his quirkiness, "You love coffee right?"

"Yes, how do you know?" I ask as we begin to walk towards the front, a car already waiting for us.

"Well every time I see you, you have one in your hand" he mentioned as I chuckled. He gave the driver directions to the nearest Dutch Bros. Once there he insisted on paying for our drinks because it was my birthday and because I protested he told everyone at the coffee spot it was my birthday. They all sang happy birthday to me not once, but twice because he thought I was worth more than just one song.

"Harry you're absolutely crazy" I accuse jumping back into the car as we leave, the people waving as we go.

"What's next Zara?" he asks laughing.

"I don't know" I say laughing as well, here I am with Harry Styles and he's asking me what I want to do next!! With him!!

"Oh come on, what's one thing you've always wanted to do?"

"Well I've always wanted to go on a hot air balloon ride" I say shyly looking up at him.

"Okay, done" he says pulling up the nearest location for one.

"Wait! Are you serious?" I ask shocked that he actually agreed to it.

"Yeah why not?"

"But it costs so much..."
