(Harry’s POV)

I did my hair and put on some clothes right after I got out of the shower. It was a bit chilly so I grabbed a t-shirt and long-sleeved purple jumper and skinny jeans, along with my favorite boots.

I really didn’t know what Hunter would like me to wear since I never met him, but I guess wearing what I usually wear would be ideal. Just to make a true impression, and not give any fake ideas to Hunter. After all, if this does work out, I want him to be friends with the real me.

“Harry, where do you think you’re going?” Gemma asked, putting her recording on pause and turning around to see me sneakily grabbing my keys. “You didn’t tell me you were leaving.”

“I’m meeting a friend today. We’re having lunch together and then we’ll just hang out and walk around town.” I explained. “I’ll be back before 5pm, ok?”

“Okay then, see you and have fun.” She said turning back around, leaning on the sofa and continuing to watch her show, letting me leave home peacefully.

Here I go. To a date set up by my crush, with someone I literally know nothing about.

Could this get any sadder?

“Excuse me, are you Harry?” an unfamiliar voice asked me as I scrolled through my Instagram, sat down in the middle of the mall.

“Yeah, I’m Harry.” I looked up smiling. “I guess you’re Hunter?”

“In the flesh” he said back, a grin on his face “Can I sit here?” he said pushing a chair back so he could sit down.

“Of course, make yourself comfortable” I grinned at the older boy. He looked older at least. He was wearing a tight dark gray v-neck, making his muscles very noticeable and black skinny jeans.

He sat down and leaned into the table. “I’m sorry Niall dragged you into this whole thing. He’s been obsessed about finding me a boyfriend lately, can’t say I know why” he chuckled making me chuckle. He has a sort of hot country accent.

“It’s fine, I’m really okay with it.” I smiled

“That’s very nice of you” he winked “And you’re also pretty hot, for an 18-year old.” He put his hand on mine, his eyes staring off in my direction dreamily.

I blushed under his touch. It wasn’t anything like Niall’s soft hands; Hunter’s were rough and manly.

“Thank you…” I stuttered embarrassed. I don’t really get complimented that often so it catches me off guard when people do say nice things about me.

“You’re welcome, cutie.” He tightened his grip a little bit. “So do you want to grab a bite to eat? I’m starving!” he said, laughing

“I’m pretty hungry too, let’s hit up Subway?” I instantly reply.

I don’t know why but Hunter has this aura of complete peace around him. I met him like 4 minutes ago but he’s really good-looking and I already feel comfortable around him. That must mean something good, right?

“And then, I told him about how I liked 5 Seconds of Summer as we walked to school together! It was really fun, actually!” I finished reporting. Hunter asked me how Niall and I met, and I’m pretty sure I rambled on for a few minutes. I tried not to get into much detail about the Allison incident, and Hunter seemed to notice that so he didn’t touch on the subject.
