Rodeo Queen

Chapter 18

Alanah was the first to wake up. She laid there for a couple minutes with her head on Harry's chest just reminiscing the events from last night. Alanah was lost in her thoughts that she didn't realize Harry was awake.

"Hey love." He whispered.

Alanah jumped, "Harold you scared the shit out of me. But hi."

"I didn't mean to scare you." he said kissing the top of her head. "How'd you sleep?"

"Pretty good. You?" she said scooting closer.

"Amazing. I could lay next to you all day." He replied.

"Ok let's do it then." she answered look at him.

"Really? Okay i'll text the boys and let them know since we have an off day. You should text Chloe and Skye so they don't think I murdered you." he said, laughing.

The two texted their friends that they were hanging out today and to leave them alone until dinner.

"Do you want to grab some breakfast? I know we agreed on staying in bed all day but I want to take you out on a mini date." Harry asked, while scrolling through twitter.

"Sure let me get ready and we can go to IHOP." Alanah said getting out of bed.

About 30 minutes later the two were walking out of the house and getting into Alanah's truck. Alanah decided to let Harry drive to IHOP in the truck since he was the only one who didn't get to drive it when she was in the hospital. Soon they were parked and in the IHOP parking lot.

"Never again will I let you drive my truck anywhere ever. You are a terrible driver." Alanah laughed, waiting for Harry to help her out of the truck.

"Well you can't drive love. Unless you know how to drive with a boot on your foot?"Harry said, getting out.

"Listen here you little shit." She said. This caused Harry to get right in front of her.

"What?" He laughed.

"Nothing now let me out, I'm starving." She said brushing off the fact she wanted to kiss him again.

The pair got seated at a table fairly quickly and ordered their food. They sat in silence as they enjoyed their food. It wasn't until Harry spoke up that the silence was broken.

"Hey La. I have a question?"

"Uh okay? But just so you know curls that was a question"

"Oh haha you are so funny aren't you? But no seriously. Do you want to go on an actual date? Ya know after your boot comes off?" He asked, almost nervous.

"Yes Harry I would love to. Because honestly, I do like you and I want to get to know you better. I know the past couple of weeks it's been about me recovering and you've been busy with the album, which I can't wait to hear by the way." She confessed.

"Well you're in luck because I happen to like you as well. I'm hoping you enjoy it because we, well I, may have written a couple songs about you." He said blushing.

"You did what? No you didn't please tell me my name wasn't brought up." She said hiding her face in her hands afraid to show Harry she was blushing. It wasn't until Harry reached over and took her hands away that Alanah realized she did like him, alot.

"La, love why are you hiding? You are too beautiful to be hiding behind your hands. Please look at me." Harry smiled.

"Uh I really don't know why i'm hiding. And I am not beautiful so don't lie to me." she said quietly.

"Please don't kill me, but Alanah Nicole, you are a very beautiful person inside and out love. You take my breath away anytime I look at you. I could go on forever about how beautiful you are." Harry said kissing their hands.

"Oh please" Alanah said trying to take her hands out of his, but he grabbed them back.

"Uh uh. You are going to sit here and listen for once you stubborn little thing. When I first saw you that night before your run, even with the black eye you were stunning. Then the next day with my sweatpants and your boots on you looked like an angel. When you were doing your interview and meeting your fans, you made sure to connect with them. You even looked beautiful lying in the hospital bed. I know I sound crazy but you are perfect in every way. I think you are beautiful no matter what you have to say, so don't bother trying to argue with me." Harry said kissing her hands.

Alanah didn't have to say anything because the blushing said it for her. With Harry everything felt right, even if that is cheesy. She never thought of herself as anything but ordinary. But when Harry listed every time he thought she looked beautiful it made her heart skip a beat.

The two were done eating and were getting ready to leave when Alanah noticed the camera's outside the building. Harry just told her to get on his back so they could make it through and to the truck. As they stepped outside Alanah was semi blinded by the flashes of the cameras. Harry led them through the maze of people shouting questions and trying to figure out exactly who Alanah was until finally they were at the truck and inside.

Im sorry for not updating. I really had no motivation to write so I was just reading another fanfic trying to get the motivation. Plus it's Halloween week at my pre-school so i'm busy doing that.
