You've got that power over me, my my
The only one I know, the only one on my mind

Harry's POV

I had to get out of that room quickly, before it was too late and she distracts me. God I wanted to stay in there with her so bad. I knew cocaine could increase your libido but my god was she horny. She's never usually the one that leads, I do. This time, it was her. And I actually liked it.

I need to close this deal with Liam. I'm hoping once I'm done we can pick up where we left of. God she's addicting. I never usually get involved with people I work with, or even someone I have the possibility of running into again. She's different to me.

My tolerance for coke is obviously a lot higher than Daisy's. I mean, it's almost a routine thing for me whilst I assume she's never done it. The way she tensed once she saw Liam pull it out, I'd never seen her squirm like that. I'm not sure how it went from her being like that, to actually doing a line herself, I sort of zoned out after doing my first line.

As I head back down to my booth, I notice Liam had brought the girl he was dancing with back with him. Typical, he's never been one to take all of this seriously. He's just in this job for the girls, the drugs and the money. That's all he cares about and it really shows. I can't lie and say I've never been like, I definitely was back in London and when I first moved out to America. I made a lot of mistakes living that way, but I've learnt from them. I'm not like Liam anymore.

I sit in the booth and clear my throat to get his attention, as the girl straddles his lap. He peers over the girls shoulder to me with a smirk, sly bastard.

"Liam, we need to discuss business now." I clear my throat, rolling my eyes at him. I've known Liam for years, we started out in this business together, we used to play the same way. Our lives are so different to one another now. Whilst I'll admit I'm not completely against the idea of getting girls from the dance floor, I never mix business with pleasure.

As Liam notices my eye roll, he moves the girl to the side off his lap, before whispering in her ear, causing her to laugh before winking and finally leaving.

"We'll stay here, office is occupied at the moment."
I say as I clasp my hands together on the table and lean towards him so he can hear. "It's been awhile since we've done this, glad you're back." I lie, there's a reason we stopped working with Liam and his group, but we're desperate right now. We need as many people on our side as we can get.

"Yeah, got to say mate, surprised when we got your call. I can never turn down visiting this place." He smiles as he takes a look around the club. "Great idea, using a club to cover up the massive unexplained income you guys get. Must have been James' idea." He smirks back at me, knowing what he said would irritate me.

"Nope, my idea actually." I grit my teeth, fighting the temptation to punch him across his smug face. Any mentioning of that name is enough to make my blood boil. "A great idea that needs you guys involved again, so what do you say?" I usher on, wanting to close this deal as quickly as possible so I could leave him and go back to Daisy.

"I'd love to mate, we've missed ya." He holds his hand out across the table, looking as smug as ever. He knows that we need him more than he needs us, if he thinks that makes him powerful than he's all wrong. I accept his hand, glad I could close this deal so quick.

As I start to get up, he clears his throat to get my attention, making me sit back down. "You know, H. The best bit of advice you gave me about this business was never care about anyone or anything, it'll just be used against you. I think of that everyday, maybe you should make sure you listen to that advice more." I knew he was talking about Daisy. I remember giving him that advice that one time he almost got a girlfriend. I don't care about anything or anyone so that if it ever comes to it, no enemy can hurt me with it. He's wrong about Daisy, I don't care about her. It's different.

"Good to see you, Liam. As always." I say as I stand up again, refusing to acknowledge his comment. He follows my lead, shaking my hand before heading off to find the girl again.

I don't care for Daisy. She's different to other girls, that's for sure. She made me get past my rule of not kissing, I also never fell asleep to someone else before her. I'm not sure where this is going with her, but I'm enjoying myself so there's no harm in carrying on. I can stop it at any time.

I open the door to my office to find Daisy asleep on the couch. My first instinct is to rush over and check she's still breathing after doing cocaine for the first time, luckily she is. She looks so peaceful. I run my hand over her cheek, feeling her warm skin as she smiles at my touch, keeping her eyes closed. It reminds me of when she fell asleep on my shoulder on her roof, I'd never felt so comfortable next to someone before. So comfortable I even fell asleep myself. I remember my first time doing cocaine, I slept for 12 hours afterwards and there was no waking me. She can't sleep on this couch, she needs her bed.

I go to my desk and start writing up an email to send to James, informing him of how the meeting with Liam went. By the time I'm finished, I notice the bass of the music downstairs disappear, must be closing time. I quickly head to the top of the stairs, looking down on the empty club, Joe already gone.

Daisy's still passed out on the sofa, I quietly head over, pulling out my phone to order an Uber to hers before putting my arms underneath her neck and knees, lifting her up easily. She feels so small and delicate in my arms.  As I start to head out the office, I feel her head nuzzle into my shoulder, feeling my body tingle weirdly to her touch. I carefully walk down the stairs, making sure I don't wake her or worse, drop her. She doesn't even stir as I make it down and head outside, thankful that the club door automatically locks behind me. The cold air instantly hits me, damn I should have got a blanket or something for her.

I look quickly for the Uber, which thankfully pulls up quite quickly. The driver notices the sleeping angel in my arms, jumping out the car to open the door for me, perks of order an Uber Premium. I slide Daisy across the back seat so that she lays down, I'm thankful the coke has made her so tired, there's no way a sober person would stay asleep to all this.

As I sit in the front seat, I watch her the whole time, turning round in my seat and not taking my eyes off of her.

"Just here, man?" The driver says as he pulls up outside her apartment. I quickly jump out the car, not taking another second to get her out the car. I reach into her pocket before getting her out the car, grabbing her key so that we can get in. The quicker she gets to her bed the better rest she'll have. Thank god I know the code to her apartment, I told her it would come in handy.

I feel my arms and legs start to ache slightly whilst climbing up the stairs, she might be light but this is nothing short of a workout still. I've never been more thankful to get to her apartment door, heading straight to place her onto her bed. I carefully rest her down, before shaking my arms to stretch them out.

I sit down in the armchair in the corner of her room, feeling the pain ease in my legs as I rest them. The chair faces her bed, I can't help but stare as she sleeps. The way her hair falls over her shoulders, her breathing slowing down, the way she looks so content and happy. I'm fighting the temptation right now to get into bed next to her and hold her close to me. I crave to feel her warmth against me. There's no way for me to ask if that's okay, so I can't. I've also never cuddled with someone in bed before.

Usually after having sex with someone, if it's in their bed, I'd get up straight away, clean myself up and leave. It's just easier that way. If you hug a girl, she's likely to get attached and then just become a problem. Fuck them and leave them, simple.

It was weird being in a girl's apartment and not here for sex. I wasn't going to be getting any tonight, and that's okay. I don't know why I'm still here then. I can't leave her alone after she took coke for the first time, it wouldn't be right. Especially after I'm the reason she took it. I just need to make sure she's okay, and then I'll leave. I've got to leave.

I'm feeling things I've never felt before, it feels dangerous. They feel like they'll kill me. Daisy might just be the death of me.
