The German Girl

~06

After Anna tried on about a million dresses (nope, I never exaggerate), we decided to take a break. Anna had a really pretty A-Line glitter dress on. 

It was nice, but too flashy for her.

Throughout the entire time I texted Harry. 

'So you're shopping with friends?

Again with boys?

sounds a little crazy 

x Lea' 

'Why?

I am just helping a friend.

He needs to find some good clothes.

What's crazy about it?

x x Harry'

'Because last time I saw you

you did the same

Maybe you're addicted to shopping

x Lea'

I loved to tease him.

But we had to stop texting.

"Lea? Do you really think, I should wear a fluffy skirt?", Anna asked, checking her new dress.

"Anna, I absolutely love this dress! It fits perfect, it suits you, it doesn't have too much decorations...What more do you want?", I answered.

"She is right. It is perfect for you!", Kim says.

"I just have a feeling that this is the perfect dress for Lea, not for me.", Anna joked.

"Seriously... I give this dress full 10 points", Barbra says.

"That's what we should do! Let's all rate the dresses." 

Anna was so thrilled by the idea, that we needed to rate the dresses.

Suddenly the door opened and I heard a familiar voice.

"Anna, run! It is Joe!", Kim shouted.

I ran into the locker with Anna to help her.

We heard Joe and two different male voices talking outside.

Then someone knocked on the door.

"Anna? It's Joe! We need to talk.", Joe said through the door.

"Give me five minutes to hide the dresses, love.", Anna answered.

After a few moments Joe and his friends were teasing us by knocking continually.

"Joe? I bet I will kick you to Timbuktu, if you don't stop knocking!", I screamed laughing.

"Oh, come on, Love. I would never annoy you, would I?", Joe said sarcasticly.

Anna went and opened the door whilst I packed the dresses in bags.

Joe and his friends came in. When I turned around, I saw Joe, his cousin Max and his cousins best friend...Harry?!

"Ladies? Nice to meet you. My name is Max.", Max came to kiss my hand.

"Lea? You really shouldn't let him attract you. He is a Ladiesman.", Anna said.

"I would never do this! Harry, hey!", I said hugging him.

"Well, that is a Ladiesman, Max. Learn from him.", Joe said joking.

"Do you know eachother?", Anna asked us.

"Yes. I met him last week in the mall with Marc.", I answered.

We talked just a short moment, but Anna knew that Harry was the boy, I was non-stop talking about. She had a dirty smile on her face. 

Anna and Joe went outside to talk. Max went to Barbra and Kim and left Harry and me alone.

"So you are the cute girl, Joe talks about?", Harry said.

"You know I am, don't you?", I said blinking.

"You are very sweet.", he said smiling.

"So has Joes found something, yet?"

"No, he hasn't. Actually we all had a good one. But he wasn't too keen on it. So we wanted to look somewhere else. Has Anna found a nice dress, yet?"

"I think she has. I have a favorite. But she needs a little more persuasion."

"But I think this dress will look good on you, aswell.", Harry said charming.

"I don't think so.", I said blushing.

"One day a lucky boy will see you walking to him in a dress like that."

"Eehh ... thanks.", I blushed again.

I hate to blush. I do it all the time. 

But Harry seemed to like it.

"Lea? Has anybody ever told you, how pretty you look when you blush?"

"No...nobody has said that."

"It fits your cute brown eyes and your sweet brown curly hair."

He didn't let a chance pass to compliment me.

It went on for a few minutes til Anna came back.

They told us that they want to drive to a shop outside of London.

So they said goodbye and went away.

I helped Anna again to get dressed. And we talked...

"What exactly is going on between you and Harry?", Anna asked cheeky.

"Nothing. He is cute and I think we're friends."

"Liar. You have a crush, my dear!", Anna said busting.

"I don't know. I actually don't like boys who are too flirty. Maybe he is too much of a Ladiesman."

"Lea? Have a seat please.", Anna tapped on the chair next to her.

"Why?"

"I know him. He is so much more than he is pretending to be. He likes you. And with his compliments, he is trying to make you like him aswell.", Anna said.

"Isn't that the flirty thing, I am talking about?", I asked unsure.

"Give him a chance! He is really cute."

"Do you really think so?", I asked.

"Yes. And I can help you with him.", she said cheeky.

"How? Anna? What is your plan?", I panicked.
