Maid For Mr. Harry Styles

Chapter 9 // A Night to Remember

Liz’s POV 

It was starting to get dark as Harry pulled into a park back in our own town. I gave him a raised eyebrow look. “You’ll love it trust me,” he gave me a crooked grin as we climbed out of the car. We walked next to each other not holding hands, not touching, not even speaking. But it was peaceful being next to him and Harry not talking my ear off or, some insulting comment. “Close your eyes,” before I could protest Harry cupped his hands over my eyes. I trusted him to walk me off a cliff figuring he was done with this whole deal. At least I would be away from the Styles’ family once and for all; too bad I’d die a virgin no one should go out like that. 

Harry didn’t walk me off a cliff though instead he did the unimaginable. He uncovered my eyes revealing a tent with one of those net coverings to keep bugs out. He opened the tent door for me and I walked in seeing a flat screen sitting on a small table with two reclining full body fold out chairs and a coffee table with flowers in the middle and Chinese food. I wanted to start crying but I knew I wouldn’t not in front of Harry. 

“Harry how did you?” 

“Shh,” he said cutting me off and hitting play. Titanic started playing on the TV; I turned away as tears stung at my eyes. “I remember what you told me about the anniversary with your parents today and I wanted to do something special; show you that I really am sorry for what happened to Sam.” I turned looking at him not sure what I should feel. 

“There would be nothing to apologize for if you wouldn’t have done that to him.” I said a little harsher than I meant to and he looked a little hurt. “Thank you though Harry it means a lot,” I was thinking about hugging him but he beat me to it. As he squeezed me I put my arms around him awkwardly just standing careful not to squeeze him. Finally he let go leading me to my seat. 

“I get first dibs!” I squealed, Harry laughed handing me a plate. 

“I didn’t know what Chinese food you liked so I go everything.” We started digging in the movie playing with the old Rose talking. She looked frail but her eyes said she lived a long and happy life; full filling in every aspect. 

“Harry how did you do this you were with me all day?” 

“A magician never reveals his secrets,” Harry smiled stabbing a piece of chicken with his fork. I gave him a look, “alright so I called someone to set it up when you were going around playing your games,” he confessed. 

“And the TV, how did you get that to work?” 

“You want to know all my secrets? Well that’s just not fair but if you must know there’s cables hooked up to a guy on a bicycle.” He shrugged not letting on if it was a joke or not. 

So I had to ask and possibly look stupid, “really?” Harry’s laugh exploded over the empty park. 

“No it’s a generator,” he pointed but I’m not even sure he knew exactly where it was. We sat there eating and watching Titanic in peace not talking. I wasn’t even going to strain myself to make up some sort of conversation with Harry; sometimes it was more comfortable to not talk. I sat my plate on the table once I was finished, after Harry finished he took care of them, bundling up the food putting it back in the plastic bags. Harry quickly walked back to the car for something as I reclined back in the chair and he came back with pillows and blankets handing one pair to me then for him. I got comfortable not even noticing half way through the movie I was dozing off. Once I had completely fallen asleep I was out like a bear hibernating. 

Harry’s POV

Liz dozed off half way through the movie and I started packing bringing things to the car. I shut everything off quickly calling the guy who set it all up. I looked down at Liz thinking about waking her but decided against it. I picked her up slowly the blanket still wrapped around her and brought her to the car sliding her in the passenger seat; running back I folded up her chair grabbed the pillow and went back to the car. I reclined her seat careful not to wake her and put the pillow under her head. I left the parking lot going home. 

I watched her out of the corner of my eye when I wasn’t looking at the road. She was like a rock when she slept and would make it easier if I ever wanted to play a prank on her. I pulled into the garage of the house. I went to the passenger side gabbing Lizzie B just as I had before bringing her in the house. 

Quietly walking through the house as to not wake anyone else I brought her to her room setting her in the bed. Carefully I took off Liz’s shoes and socks not daring to go any further knowing if I did she’d know who changed her clothes and kick my ass royally. I covered Liz with the comforter tucking her in a bit when she stirred. “Harry?” 

“Yes?” I said quietly. Maybe she was sleep talking I couldn’t be sure. 

“Can I go to Sam’s tomorrow?”I bit my bottom lip not really wanting to let her go but I made a promise. If I told her no she might castrate me I couldn’t put it past her not too. 

“Sure,” I was just about to bend down to kiss her cheek but caught myself backing away from Liz. I walked out the room shutting her door quietly before going to my own bedroom. I turned on some music playing it quietly as I changed down to my boxers before climbing in my own bed. I covered up almost as soon as my head hit the pillow I fell asleep. I was thankful that I passed out quickly so I wouldn’t have time to think about Liz and then who knew how long I would be up.
