Harry’s P.O.V.

I had sent Amanda a message, telling her I needed to sort things out to her. She agreed. I couldn’t wait to see her, I really just wanted to hold her small body close to mine.  I would try to tell her some things about me, open up to her but not completely about Scott. I needed her to trust me, I needed her in my life.

Currently, I was driving to pick her up. I drove past a few trees as they danced with the wind rustling by. It was early, around 1 pm. I came to a stop parking my car by her red one. In a swift movement I opened my door and closed it shut, walking over to her front door. I softly knocked on her door.

Ami opened the door, smiling up at me.  She was wearing navy blue skinny jeans. She also had on a gray hoodie that had the word ‘KISS ME’ on the front in pink letters. My heart skipped a beat as I touched my lips, remembering her soft, warm lips. I looked back at her eyes, seeing they had a spark to them.

“Is something the matter Harry?” she asked her voice soft and questioning. I chuckled and nodded my head.

“Nothing’s wrong, love. I was just admiring your sweater there,” I pointed out, giving her a smirk. She giggled and blushed.

“Ugh, now that you’re done making me feel embarrassed, can we go?” she said, her mouth open as she peered at me. I nodded my head, taking her hand and leading her to the passenger seat of my car.

“In you go love,” I said closing her door and making my way to the other side. I climbed in and started the engine, heading towards my place. It was a bit far from hers. About 37 minutes at most.

“Is the drive long from here to your place?” she asked. I looked over at her and smiled.

“Yeah, it’s actually about 37 minutes at most,” I replied focusing on the road again. She smiled, looking out the window as I drove to my flat.

When we got there, I opened her door and led her to my front steps. She looked around, admiring the sight.

“It’s very nice out here Harry,” she commented. “You live here by yourself?” she asked. I nodded my head, as I pushed the door open.

“Yeah, I’ve been living on my own for 2 years now,” I informed her, motioning her to go in first. We entered my living room which included the two couches and a flat screen t.v. in the front, with a small table in the middle. She took a seat and looked up at me. I smiled taking a seat across from her.

“You sure are cleaner than I expected,” she teased. I glared at her playfully.

“So you think I’m like, a dirty person or something?” I huffed, making her laugh.

“Yes you are a dirty person, considering how you eyed my sweater just a moment ago,” she stated with a playful look. I smirked.

“I was looking at your chest because I was reading what was on it,” I defended myself. Amanda just laughed shaking her head.

“Yeah, whatever pervert,” she teased. I chuckled. After a moment we got silent. Then she spoke.

“So what did you want to tell me?” she asked, curious as to what I had to say. I sighed looking at her, and proceeded to respond.

“I wanted to explain that I didn’t want to leave you that day at the zoo. It’s just that I had an emergency at work,” I started. Amanda stayed silent, waited for me to continue. “My boss is a pain in the arse, and he wanted me to get some urgent work done,” I lied. “I work in an office, persuading people to buy property,” I elaborated, partly telling the truth. She nodded in understanding.

“It’s alright Harry, I understand. I was just worried when I saw your face as you read that text. You seemed irritated” she replied. I smiled a little.

“Yeah I was, but because I didn’t want to leave the most breathtaking girl I’ve met alone at the zoo,” I said, and she grinned. “You could have been kidnapped by a bear!” I joked, lighting up the mood. She giggled.

“I don’t think there were any bears, Harry” she assured. “Besides, I’m a big girl and I could defend myself,” she finished. I mimicked a hurt expression.

“Aw, and I thought I could be your hero and save you from that bear,” I joked, stabbing my heart making her laugh again.

“So, you want to watch a movie?” I suggested, now that I’ve gotten that out of the way. She nodded her eyes lighting up.

“Yeah, which ones do you have?” she questioned, getting up and going over to a box I had on the floor by the t.v. that contained movies. I went to where she was squatted down and helped her rummage through the movies. By accident, her hand grabbed mine, as she tried to reach for a movie. She let go, but I made a quick move and held her hand again. I heard her gasp as I rubbed my thumb against her soft delicate skin. She gazed up at me, and I parted my lips, heart beating faster.  

“Uh, we can watch Love Actually?” I suggested, looking at her face as she kept her gaze on our hands.

Amanda’s P.O.V.

“Uh, we can watch Love Actually?” he suggested, still keeping his hand closed around mine. I blushed a little. His hand felt comfortable as it clutched mine. I can smell his scent from here, vanilla. My skin felt tingly as I looked up to meet his gaze. His green eyes were gorgeous, as they peered at mine.

“Oh, sorry,” he commented, as he hesitated, not really wanting to remove his hand. I didn’t want him to.

“It’s okay” I breathed. I smiled at him and he smiled back, showing off a little bit of his dimples.

“So you want to watch that one?” he asked, as we both stood up. I nodded my head excitedly.

“Of course,” I replied. “It’s one of my favorites,” I added. He smirked as he looked at me and went over to his t.v. putting it on.

“It’s my all time favorite,” he admitted. “We have many things in common,” he added with a smirk. I looked at him curiously.

“Oh yeah, like what?” I asked. He was about to reply when the door bell rang. Harry and I both looked over at the door.

“Damn it” he whispered. “I forgot to tell you, but the lads will be joining us,” he added, getting up and opening the door.
