Harry took me a beautiful rooftop restaurant just outside Manhattan. It was so pretty and perfect. We made comfortable conversation and I asked him all about One Direction. I was curious and he happily answered all my questions.

He rode up the elevator with me into my apartment.

"Thank you, Harry. I had a really nice time." I smile up at him and he kisses my forehead.

"My pleasure. Did you like that place? Was it too much?" He asks worriedly.

"No, it was perfect. The waiter was a little weird, but I refuse to let that sway my opinion." I laugh it off and I walk over to my couch to fold the blanket we were using earlier. Harry leans against the wall casually.

"Yeah he was a little odd." He laughs quietly.

We exist in silence for a moment as I pick up around my flat.

"You're pretty." He says. I'm not sure if he meant to say it out loud, but my stomach flutters despite that.

"Um, thank you." I say flustered, trying to hide my blushing cheeks.

He stares at me intently. Not in a creepy way, but in a way that makes my heart warm and my smile permanent.

"What?" I finally ask. His stare making me nervous and giddy.

"I'm just trying to find your flaw."

"Excuse me?" He's what?

"It doesn't add up. You're gorgeous, you're funny, you're smart. No one is all of those things..." He says it in disbelief.

"Harry, you're embarrassing me." I sarcastically say. What am I supposed to say to the most wonderful thing anyone has every said to me? That was literally perfect.

"I'm sorry." He laughs and walks toward me. "I should probably go. Thanks for keeping me company tonight." He brushes my hair behind my ear and kisses me softly.

"My pleasure." I wink at him and he pops an eyebrow at me like he always does.

"Don't look at me like that Stewart or I will not be responsible for what happens next." He teases as he walks into the elevator.

"Bye Harry." I drown out the 'y' sound as I wave toward him.

"Bye love." He says as the doors close. The image of him standing there with his hands in his pockets as the steel doors make him disappear from my gaze is still fresh on my mind and will be for the remainder of the night.

I should be head over heels happy, but Harry Styles just left me the most confused girl in the world.
