Falling [H.S]

Five

"What are you doing here?" Hollie asked shyly, knowing full well she never mentioned anything to him about tonight and is a bit confused how he is here. She stared at him, noticing he is wearing a brown striped suit, his trousers flared out slightly at the bottom, pairing it with his signature white boots.

"You're mum, Sarah and your management all told me about it. When they brought it up, I was a bit confused why you didn't mention it to before," he explained, looking at Hollie with a smirk.

"I didn't want you to think I was using you for publicity or anything," Hollie admitted, feeling embarrassed, looking down at her hands. "Plus, you said you were doing promo somewhere," she grabbed her drink from the bartender, muttering a thank you.

"My management said it was okay for me to come back. I'll just carry on in a couple of weeks," Harry said whilst grabbing a glass of what seem to be whiskey.

Just as she was about to say something, she was pulled away by Sarah, who pulled her in front of the beautiful decorations on a certain part of the wall, clearly meant for photos to be taken. Hollie took multiple photos with everyone, and then there were multiple group photos, not forgetting to have photos with her mum as well.

"Harry!" Hollie's mum shouted towards him which caused him to raise an eyebrow. Hollie felt rather embarrassed but Harry walked over anyway to where we were standing. "Stand next to Hollie," she gestured to where she was standing, still in front of the decorations.

Harry didn't argue because he was more than happy to be in a photo with Hollie. He stood next to her and brought his hand round to rest on her hip, but he made sure to rest a bit of his palm on her butt. They both smiled for the photo and once they were done, Harry's hand slid down to firmly rest on her butt completely. Hollie didn't argue though, she felt her cheeks redden but tried not to make a big deal out of it.

Harry, being the sweetheart he was, he offered to take photos with the rest but they did it in groups so there wasn't that much time consumed by doing this.

The last of the photos were taken and everyone disbursed onto the dance floor, getting more drinks on the way. Hollie went to the bar with Harry to both get another drink. Just as Hollie was about to start talking to Harry, Sarah had grabbed her arm and pulled her away again. This time it was right into the middle of the dance floor, dancing to whatever the DJ was playing. Hollie found herself downing her drink, placing it on the table closest to her.

"I'm surprised no one has swarmed Harry," Hollie shouted to Sarah, who replied, explaining that his management explained to everyone to give him space, anyone not doing that gets kicked out.

'That's fair enough' Hollie thought.

Everyone carried on dancing, feeling the music and jumping around to the beat. There was a mixture of everything from old classics to new music just released. Hollie was just happy to have all her friends looking amazing and having fun. She went up to various friends, taking more photos but this time it was more funny than serious ones. Hollie could feel eyes on her as she was taking the photos with everyone.

"Don't look now, but I think someone is liking what they see," Sarah shouted in my ear, trying to be loud enough over the sound of the music.

Hollie looked over to where she gestured and sure enough, Harry was staring intently at her, looking her up and down. She could feel a fire in the pit of her stomach, liking the fact that he is looking at her like that. She found herself biting her lip subconsciously, keeping her eyes on Harry. She noticed a fire ignite in his eyes, as he watched her do that.

"What was it you said earlier? About not wanting a relationship?" Sarah quizzed, noticing the stare down that was going on between the two of them.
