I let my body guide me and ended up at the same park from yesterday. I effortlessly glided down the path assuming Harry was still behind me. We went on for another five minutes till Harry asked to take a break. We stopped in front of a bench and sat down.

"So, do you know any tricks?" Harry asked me.

"Not really. You can't do many tricks with long boards. You can do fun riding styles though." I told him.

"Show me." He basically demanded. I stood up and rode a little further from him only to turn around and head back towards him. This time, I bent down so I was basically squatting while riding my board. I started to slow down so I stood back up and turned around. This time when I went past Harry, right when I was in front of him, I jumped and did a 360 turn landing perfectly back on my board.

I did a few other small things and went to sit back on the bench with him. He clapped and I did a little bow.

"That smile you get on your face when you board is probably the most genuine smile I have ever seen on your face. I can tell you truly love this." Harry said looking into my eyes.

"Yeah it's kind of been my obsession since I was eight. It was my main form of transportation before I was able to drive. Sometimes when I don't feel like paying for gas, I'll just ride my board everywhere. I do skate board as well but that's mostly when I'm bored and feel like doing tricks." I said looking right back.

He pulled out his phone and showed me a picture he took. It was of me in mid air during one of my 360 turns. "Permission to post, ma'am?"

"Sure"

"Good. I was going to anyway just thought I'd be polite." He said as he started typing on his phone. A minute later I heard my phone ding from my pocket and pulled it out to see that I was tagged in a photo on Instagram by Harry Styles. I clicked on it and it was the picture he just took of me with the caption 'My #wcw in the middle of schooling me" I liked the photo and leaned into Harry for a selfie. He kissed the side of my head and I scrunched up my face.

"This is actually a really nice photo. I'll probably put this on twitter later." Speaking of twitter I opened it up to see Liam had finally put up the picture of all of us cuddling on my bed. The caption read 'The group cuddle session from two nights ago' with a heart emoji. I retweeted and put my phone in my pocket. "You ready to go Harry? I'm hungry and I want to stop somewhere for food." We both stood up and started to board up the path again. I was planning on going until I saw somewhere that I wanted to stop in but then I saw Harry speed up and pass me to only stop in front of a small diner. We hid our boards in the bushes next to it and walked inside.

The lady at the front led us to a table by a window and handed us menus. We soon found ourselves eating our meals and making small talk. It was all fine and calm until Harry brought it up.

"So can we talk about what happened the other night?" I stiffened but nodded anyway. "Listen Freya, I have to admit I do like you. It's just the fact that you're Louis' little sister that's the problem. I mean you heard what he said during the twitcam. I don't think we should kiss again for now. And wow I'm saying all of this stuff as if you like me back. Do you?"

I looked into his eyes then back down to my plate. "I'd be lying if I said I didn't have feelings for you. I agree, nothing can happen between us because the fact that I'm Louis' sister. Let's forget that the kiss ever happened and when we landed like that, you stood straight up."

"Well I never said I wanted to forget it" Harry told me with a smirk. I rolled my eyes and got up to pay the bill. "Where do you think you're going?"

"To pay the bill?"

"No. No. No. That is the man's job. You sit down." He says as he stood up and walked past me.

He wasn't gone long till I heard "Oh my god, is that Harry Styles?" being shouted from the front of the diner. I grabbed his phone off the table and made my way to the counter where he was standing in the middle of about twenty teenage girls. They must be on some sort of team. I worked my way to the front to hand Harry his phone but kept getting pushed back a little. I felt a strong hand grab mine and pulled me forwards. Soon I was standing right next to Harry holding his hand in a sea of teenage girls. He was holding my left hand and signing random papers with his right.

When I tried to let go he held on tighter and whispered into my ear "I'm not letting you get lost. I need you in my sight." I nodded and he went back to signing. He took a couple pictures which I felt really awkward about because we were still holding hands. Most were selfies so you could barely tell. Soon the mob of girls left and we were finally able to exit the diner. I let go of his hand when I went to grab my board. His hand lingered for a little longer and he reached for his board.

We went straight home and it took about half an hour. When we got back I brought my board upstairs and looked for the rest of the boys. The lights were on in Niall and Zayn's room. Liam's car was gone and Louis was cuddling with El in the couch and they were watching some romance movie. Cheesy motherfuckers. I walked back up to my room and pulled out my laptop.

I mindlessly scrolled through tumblr for a few hours till I heard a quiet knock on my door. "Come in!" Louis peered through the door. He closed it lightly behind him and sat down with me on my bed after moving my laptop over to the night stand.

"So, Freya, what did you think about Eleanor?" He asked me.

"She's extremely nice. I can see why you like her. I think her and I will get along extremely well." I said in full honesty.

"So how would you feel if I asked her to marry me?" he asked looking at me with a hopeful look on his face.

"I think it would be an honor to have her as a part of the family, Louis."

"Phew, good. I'm actually planning on asking her. I wanted the most important girl in my life to approve of the next important girl in my life." He told me with a smile on his face.

I leaned in to hug him. "Awe, Louis! I'm so happy for you! I can't wait for the wedding. Do you know how you're going to propose yet?" If I could cry, I would.

"I still need to work it out but it has to be special. A special girl needs a special proposal." I nodded and he stayed in my room for another thirty minutes. We just spent throwing out fun proposal ideas.

"I think I would like to be proposed to in a huge way. Something obnoxiously big, y'now? Maybe a flash mob. That would be so cool. I mean, I hate public attention but in circumstances like that, it's okay." I told him.

"Hahaha you don't seem like the type to be into something like that" he paused for a second that instantly shot up from his previous position of laying down. "I have an idea. You can have a girls night with El and see if you can get her to slip it out."

"Lou, I can see what I can do but I think it's best if you come up with an idea yourself. I'll get an outline but you come up with details. She'll love the effort you went through. Now I hate to do this to you but you gotta get out. I'm tired and want to nap before dinner."

"I don't know. I am pre-tty comfortable." He's said while spreading out more on my bed.

I rolled my eyes and tried to shove him off but he wouldn't budge. I pulled, pushed, rolled, I did anything. He would not move. I sighed heavily and ended up putting my legs across him and snuggled further into the bed.
