No judgement

2

Walking around the city really is like a dream. Everything that I have ever dreamed of. I grabbed my camera that was around my neck and started taking pictures of the people around me.  No one seemed to care, some people even posed making me laugh. I walked up to the corner of the street and ran into someone.

"Oh I am so sorry!" I said holding my camera into place. The man looked down at my hands, and looked back up to me.

"Can you not take a picture of me?" He asked nicely. His voice is deep, but sweet. His curly brown hair flowing as he stood in the wind. I looked at him confused.

"I won't if you don't want me too." I said. He thanked me and then I walked away looking back at him confused. The second I left a bunch of girls swarmed him. He looked stressed out. I walked back up to him. "Hey we have a bunch of stuff to get done, we need to go." I said. He looked at me confused, but once he got it he thanked me with his eyes.

"I'm sorry guys but I have a photoshoot I have to get too." He pointed to me. The girls moved out of the way and then he walked over to me. We walked around the corner making sure that they didn't follow us. "Thank you so much. I didn't catch your name." He said.

"I'm Baylee." I said. "What's yours?" I asked. He looked at me confused again. "What? Is your name a secret? Or did you forget your name?" I smiled causing us both to giggle.

"I'm Harry." he said reaching in for a hug. I wrapped my arms around his neck and I leaned into the hug. He smells like sunflowers and strawberry's. When we pulled away from each other I smiled at him.

"It's so nice to meet you Harry." I said to him. He looked at me. He still looks confused. "Are you okay? Did I do something?" I said keeping eye contact with him.

"No I'm just surprised. You are the first person in a while that hasn't known who I was." He said. I looked at him. Now I'm really confused.

"Am I suppose to?" I asked.

"Do you know what One Direction is?" He asked.

"I've heard of them, but not really why?" I said. Still trying to piece together what he is getting at.

"I'm Harry Styles." He said. I still don't get it.

"I'm Baylee Winters." I said. Thinking that we are just sharing full names now. He sighed out. In relief it sounds like.

"I was part of One Direction." He said. Now it all makes since. The swarm of girls. Not wanting a picture. All of it.

"I'm sorry I didn't recognize you, I feel bad now." I said. I looked down at the ground. Noticing his style. He is wearing high wasted black pants with a sparkly purple shirt tucked into them. "I love your style." I said. Very feminine. Which is the best part. He isn't normal.

"You not recognizing me made me feel good, so don't apologize. It's nice feeling normal for once, and thank you. I don't like giving into the ideal masculinity. It's not me." He said. It made a lot of since. I know he doesn't want a picture but the portfolio idea's are coming to me.

"I am going to apologize now. If you don't want to, just say so. I have this portfolio that I have left empty for the longest time, but this outfit fits. If you don't mind can I take a picture of the outfit. Your face doesn't have to be in it. I am sorry." I said slowing myself down, but when I get to express my creativeness I feel unstoppable. He smiled at me.

"Are you a photographer?" He asked me. I shook my head. "You don't work for paparazzi?" He asked.

"No I just moved out here. I'm looking for work, that's actually why I'm trying to get a portfolio together." I said. I could see an idea pop into his head. I looked at him confused.

"I have a concert tonight. This sounds like it's straight out of a movie, but would you want to be the photographer tonight. The venue's photographer called in." He said. It did sound like it was from a movie. I can't pass up work. I need the money and the experience, if I ever want to get anywhere.

"I would love too, when and where?" I asked. He gave me the venue address. He gave me a pass for backstage so that I didn't have to wait in the line to get in. "Can I get a picture of your outfit though?" I asked which made him smile.

"Yes and don't worry about getting my face out of the frame." He said. He started posing for the camera and I snatched a bunch of pictures. Smiling. I love this, this job, this experience, this new life. I am so beyond happy right now. "I would love to see those after they are edited. What's your Instagram?" He asked. I have never signed up for Instagram, I kind of forgot it existed.

"I don't have one." I said. He looked at me surprised but smiled.

"Okay well can I have your number? I really want to see those pictures." He said smiling. I shook my head. "Please don't leak my number." He said really serious. It would suck to have to always worry about that.

"I would never." He smiled showing his beautiful dimples. wow. "I need to go so I can edit these photos." I said smiling at him.

"It was so nice to meet you Baylee. I can't wait to see you tonight." He said hugging me one more time before he left. I smiled. What is my life?

New message!
Hey it's harry. I can't wait to see those photo's.

I smiled. He is the sweetest person I have ever met. Next to my mom of course. I looked up at the sky and smiled. "I love you momma. I really hope that you are okay wherever you are." A single tear escaped my eye. I quickly wiped it away. I know that she would have been proud of me.

As soon as I got back to the hotel I grabbed my computer from my bag. I transferred the photos to the computer and started editing. Making sure that these photos are perfect. They have to be. I put my name at the bottom right corner and then sent them to Harry hoping that they are good enough for someone like him.

New message!
Those are so great. I can't wait to see what you do with the photos you take tonight. You should definitely get an Instagram too. You could do so much! -H

I smiled at the text that he sent me. I grabbed my phone and created an account. I can't wait to prove my dad wrong. I am going to be great at this, and I will make damn sure I do. Even if it's the last thing that I do...
