I was walking into a bar with the rest of the Sidemen boys as well as Lux and Freezy. they were all teasing for not being out with a girl in ages and that i always struck out.

''okay, let's bet. The first girl I see tonight I will get her number within ten minutes'' i told them

''bet. 100 pounds'' Freezy tells me

''from each of us'' JJ adds and everyone hypes him up

''but it reverses'' Simon tells me

''okay. done'' i reply with confidence but really i was doubtful in my own head. 

''good luck mate'' Lux adds in as the rest of the boys laugh as we made it to the door

''I'm telling you boys, tonight is my night'' I said as I walked backwards and bumped into someone behind me.

''oh sorry'' I turned around and saw a girl, she was actually really cute and laughed at me when I turned around. Her drink was all over her

''oh don't worry about it'' she replies

''go on then mate'' Cal whispers in my ear as the boys walk away to a table

''I really am sorry'' i tell her

''honestly its okay, worst things have happened to me in a bar'' she jokes

''will you let me buy you another drink at least?'' i asked her. not only to get the bet but she was really cute.

''yeah, okay then'' she replies and then turns around to her two friends behind her ''go on, ill catch up with you later. Or not'' she whispers to them thinking that I can't hear her.

''shall we?'' I ask and point to two chairs and the bar

''sure?'' she replied as we sit down

''I'm harry by the way'' I tell her and reach my hand out to shake hers

''nice to meet you harry, I'm Lucy'' she replies as she shakes my hand

''so, what do you two want to drink?'' the bartender asks us

'ladies first''

''oh, okay. I will have a pink gin with lemonade and strawberries please''

''okay'' the bartender nods

''ill have a vodka coke please''

''okay'' the bartender replies and gives us our drinks

''interesting order'' i tell her

''I'm an interesting person Harry''

''I'll bet. So, what do you do for a living?''

''actually, why don't we leave all that. Let's be interesting''

''yeah, okay.'' i reply with a doubt in my mind that she is hiding something.

We sat chatting for a while and after we finished drinks, we didn't part ways and we then drank some more, and more. And even a little more. And we didn't get serious or into deep chats, just fun, light stuff. It might seem weird that I wanted to hide stuff and usually that's a big no for guys because they think I am really hiding something from them.

The truth is that I do modelling, which guys seem to love all the time which creeps me out or they hate it. So I don't want to just tell him that.

After we got really drunk, I felt us getting closer and closer until our lips were up against each other. This wasn't really my thing of just making out with someone I had just met but this felt different somehow.

''so what happens now'' I stop kissing for a minute to ask him

''well, my flat is close by'' he breaks the kiss to tell me

''great. Let's go'' I tell him as he gently grabs my arm and we stand up. A group of boys across the room point over at us and cheer as we walk out

''piss off'' harry shouts across the bar at them before we leave the bar and walk down the street to his flat.

We made it up to the flat after drunk stumbling down the street.

''so, welcome'' he tells me as he opens the door and we walk in

''nice place'' 

''thanks'' he replies as we stare at each other for a second before he leans in and we start kissing again. We kissed as we stumbled up the stairs to his bedroom. Then I guess we all know what happened next...
