"It's Fridayyyyyyy" I cheer walking into the studio to see Alice and Jason both with their heads on the table
"What's up with you guys?" I plop myself on the chair next to Alice

"We barely got any sleep last night" Alice mumble
I chuckle, "whoa hold back the details"
Jason mocks my laugh, "the people who live next door to us don't know how to turn down the volume of their music"

"Does that mean we get the day off?" I ask hopefully and before Alice can say no Jason nods his head
"I can't be arsed today"
I literally run out the door as fast as possible before he can change his mind

I sit in the diver's seat of my car and stare into space

What do I do?

Shop? Babes, with what money
Food? As if you ain't fat enough

My thoughts are interrupted when I see Harris stood in front of my car. I gesture for him to come and sit inside
"Hi, what are you doing here"
He closes the door behind him, "to say sorry"
"For what"
"For being a dick"
I raise an eyebrow
"I've basically been ghosting you for the past week and you've not said a word"
"You asked for space and I gave you space" I shrug
"Yeah but the whole point of a relationship is to go through stuff together not alone"
"So this is a relationship now?"
He looks at me like I've grown three heads, "what?"
"A week ago you didn't wanna label us but now we're in a relationship?"
"Zara I asked you to be my girlfriend and you said no and now you wanna be my girlfriend?" His eyebrows are furrowed
"You don't get it" I roll my eyes

"Fucking tell me then"
"Why are you so angry?" I ask
"You go on about communication but there's literally no communication going on here" he explains
"I'm making a big deal about this because so many people as me what we are and I never have an answer because I don't know myself"
"Well be my girlfriend then and you can tell everyone we're a couple?" He says in a duh tone

I stare at his face and then chuckle
"So it's funny now?" He asks
"Because you don't get it" I laugh, "I had to mention it before you actually thought of asking me to be your girlfriend so it's not the same"

He makes a face at me, "are you dumb?"
"What?"
"I wanted to make you my girlfriend the minute I spoke to you so don't give me that crap"
"Really?"
"Yes really" he mocks me, reaching out for my hand, "I'm just an idiot for not asking you sooner, I'm sorry"
"It's okay I forgive you" I smile cheekily
"Shut up" he laughs pushing my hand away

"Can I take you out?" He asks and I nod my head
"Where we going?"
"Shopping"
"I don't have enough money mate"
"My treat"
"You don't need to buy me stuff"
"You're my girlfriend" he says clicking his seatbelt into place and my stomach flutters
"In that case..." I reply starting my car up and he chuckles

🕒

"Can I replace your anklet" he asks staring down at my ankles
I shift on my feet, "It's haram to stare at my ankles"
"Shut the fuck up Zara" he whines pushing me and I laugh
"Yes you can replace it, what to?" I ask
"For me to know, you to find out" he winks
"Okay that was hot though" I comment, quickly realising I said that out loud
He fake gasps, "Zara did that filth just come out of your mouth"
"Piss off" I say slipping my arm through his as we walk into the jewellery store

🕒

"To end this perfect day..." he places his milkshake cup down and takes out a small bag from his pocket and hands it to me "...this is for you"

"What is it?" I ask balancing my milkshake cup on my leg
"Open it" he grins taking a slurp
I shuffle through the back and pull out a very dainty chain with the letter 'H' hanging off it
"An anklet?" I ask looking up at him with a smile and he nods his head
"With my initial on it" he adds
"It's very cute" I grin looking at him, "thank you"
"Here, lemme put it on you" he holds out his hand and I hand it to him, and stretch my leg out so he can put it on

I stare at the concentration on his face as he fastens it and can't help but capture the moment on my phone
"Don't ever take it off" he says looking up at me once it's on
"Promise" I smile pulling him into a hug
