Natalie's POV

Tomorrow is the day, it's the day we leave. Tonight will be my last night here at home. I have to admit, I've missed my parents; and it will be hard to say goodbye tomorrow. Right now I'm in my bathroom finishing getting ready, because my mom, dad, Harry, and I are going out tonight to eat. My parents thought it would be a good idea to just have one on one with us. The others are just going to stay here and have a movie night. I'm excited to get away from Josh and Jessica, but I'm nervous about what will happen tonight. We're going to a little diner that's in the middle of the town called "Janet's Diner." I wonder is Harry will be-

"Natalie, are you in there?" El's voice called from behind the door.

"Yes." I said while opening the door.

El was in sweats and a white T-shirt, with her arms crossed, and a smirk on her face.

"What?" I asked cautiously.

"Curled hair, makeup done to perfection, and your favorite dress? Natalie you're so excited for this dinner." El was laughing teasingly at me.

I looked at myself in the mirror, and I didn't realize all the trouble I went into for this dinner. I was wearing my favorite dress, my hair was curled to perfection, and my makeup was done beautifully. Not bragging or anything.

"I just threw this together." I lied.

"Yeah okay. Well I hate to be the one to tell you this, but your dad isn't feeling so well so they cancelled the dinner." El gave me a sympathetic look.

I don't know why it hurt this bad, but I felt like my heart just dropped. I was looking so forward to this, and now it's not going to happen.

"Hey don't look so down, because there is a surprise waiting for you down stairs." El said, giving me a wink and pulling me to the stairs.

A surprise? What surprise? Did my parents get me something? My thoughts were stopped when I saw Harry, my Harry in a pair of khakis, a button up shirt, his hair was a perfect mess, a blindfold in his left hand, and he had a rose in his right hand. Did I just call him my Harry? Shit.

"Wow.. You look beautiful." He breathed out. I let out a school girl giggle, and replied;

"Thanks you look pretty great yourself too."

"Come on love I have a surprise for you, I need you to put this on-" He said and handing me the blindfold, "-and this is for you also." Then he handed me the rose.

I looked at the blind fold wearily and then looked back at him. He's a criminal. He's a criminal. He's a criminal. He's going to blindfold me, put me in a taxi cab, rape me, and then he -

"Natalie, you can trust me nothing is going to happen." He said cutting me out of my train of thought. I need to talk to El, she will know what to do.

"Okay, just let me get this rose in water, and then I will get El to tie this." I rushed out of the room to the kitchen to where El was thankfully. I put the rose in water, and explained everything to her in a whisper.

"What if he murders me?" I whispered.

"Shut up Natalie. You need to let go, okay? This is getting ridiculous, give the poor guy a chance to show who he really is. Now stop being a bitch and get out there!" She walked me to the door to Harry, put the blindfold on me, and the next thing I know I have strong, rough hand pulling mine.

<~>

We've been walking for a while now, and I couldn't be any happier that I didn't wear heels.

"Harry I'm going to ask you again, how much longer?" I whined.

Harry let out a raspy chuckle.

"Not too much longer babe."

The nickname sent my stomach into a butterfly museum. I tried not to smile or blush, since I can't see if he's looking at me or not.

"We're here."

"Okay can I take this off?" I pointed to the blindfold wrapped around my eyes.

"Yeah, here let me do it for you."

The blindfold was gently removed from my head, and the sight in front of me was something I would never have expected.

The waterfall. With candles, rose petals, a picnic set up, with champagne, swimming outfits, and blankets. I turned to look at Harry, with my mouth agape and tears in my eyes. Harry was watching me intensely, and a look of worry went across his face from my tears. The tears weren't sad, or hurt, they were happy. Nobody has ever put this much effort into something for me, and this must have taken a while. When did he do it? When I was getting ready maybe? Why did he do it though?

"You said that your last memory here wasn't a good one. - " Harry took my hand in his, and slowly leaned his face closer to mine. "- I just thought that maybe we could make our own memory." With everything he said, El telling me to loosen up, and the adrenaline pumping through me, I pulled his head down to mine and kissed him with everything I had in me.

The kiss was filled with more than passion, lust, happiness, sparks, but something else that I couldn't put my finger on. Whatever the other feeling was, I knew now that I never wanted it to go away.
