Chapter 19 ~ Harry

As the week goes by, Ivette and I talk more and more. We either text or call each other and we always have random conversations, but we're also getting to know each other better. To me, this is very important because in that way I make sure that I really want this. I make sure that I really want to go on a date with her. I make sure that I really want her as more than a friend. And the more I talk to her, the more I'm sure about it.

We still haven't discussed what are we gonna do for our date, but that's the first thing I'm gonna ask her when I call her tonight. She's at uni right now, and the boys and I are in the studio. Since we're both busy today, we really don't have time for texting.

We did agree, though, that we will go out this Friday, meaning that we had two days until the big day comes. Well, I was the one who decided the date because I really can't wait longer. Ivette is all I think about lately, and to know that we're finally going out makes me really happy and excited.

As we're about to finish up in the studio, my phone rings telling me that I have a text. Without thinking about it, I quickly pull out my phone from my pocket and immediately open up the text message. I'm never this quick when someone texts me, but when the text message could be from one special girl that doesn't leave my mind, then that's a different story.

"Whoa there, patience little grasshopper," Louis teases me as he sees my reaction. I chuckle and flip him off, making him chuckle as well.

"As if you don't act like this when Eleanor texts you," I say.

"He has a point," Liam says, chuckling.

"Shut up, you obviously do the same thing with Danielle," Louis replies.

Liam eyes widen and his hands go up in surrender. "I haven't said anything," He says. The other boys join in their little discussion, but I only chuckle to myself and go back to reading the text message.

Hey, I just got out of uni. How are things in the studio? - Ivette

I smile to myself and quickly reply.

Hiii. Everything's great! We're almost done for today. How was uni? - Harry

As I wait for her reply, I turn my attention to the boys who keep on arguing. I sigh and shake my head, chuckling a bit.

"Guys, we all do the same thing, okay? Please stop discussing this," I say.

"Harry's right," Niall says. "Now, whose turn is it to record?"

"Jesus, look at you admitting that you get all excited for a girl," Louis teases him, making Niall blush.

"Shut up and go record your part," Niall replies, making everyone chuckle.

"Fine, fine," Louis says, standing up and putting his hands up in surrender playfully. In that moment, my phone rings with Ivette's reply.

Ugh, boring, like always. How much longer until you're done? -Ivette

I smile to myself at her response because I can totally imagine her saying it.

Not much longer. Why? - Harry

After I send my reply, it doesn't take her long to reply back, but when I look down at my phone I see that she's calling me instead. I frown, a little surprised, but answer the call anyway.

"Hi," I say with a smile, even though I know she can't see me. The thing is that this is what she does to me. She makes me happy.

"Hey," She replies, and I can tell she's smiling too.

"So..." I trail off, trying to make her tell me why she asked that.

"Uh... I was just... wondering... if you wanted to come by my house and hang out," She replies nervously which only makes me smile bigger. Not only because I find her nervousness cute, but also because she wants to see me. She wants to see me just as bad as I want to see her, so that's why I don't deny her offer.

"Sure, I'll be there once I'm done here," I reply.

"Ok, perfect," She says. "I'll see you then! Oh, and tell the boys that I say hi," She adds.

I chuckle. "Will do. See you in a bit," I reply.

"Alright, bye!"

"Bye," I say, and then I hang up.

After the call, time went by fast and I couldn't be more grateful. Yes, I love being in the studio. Yes, I love working on our album, but I just couldn't wait any longer to see Ivette again. The last time I saw her was on Sunday, the day I went to see her, but the fact that she called me and asked to see me makes everything more special in some kind of way.

Louis finished off his part, and after doing some little arrangements here and there we were good to go. Of course there was some teasing from the boys, but because they act the same way I do when it comes to their girlfriends then it didn't matter.

Once I got in my car, I made my way directly to Ivette's house, but not before letting her know that I would be there in a little while.

Soon enough, I was standing outside her house. I press the doorbell and I'm surprised to be greeted by Ivette and not Nicholas, but I'm not complaining. I couldn't wait any longer to see her.

"Hi," She says with a shy smile, opening the door wider for me to come in.

"Hey," I say, walking closer to her before going inside the house. I lean down and stretch my arms to hug her. Her arms going around my neck immediately as my arms hug her waist. I pull away lightly just to kiss her cheek, and the smile that appears on her face makes me smile as well.

"So what do you wanna do?" She asks as we pull away. I step inside and wait for her to close the door, so I can follow her further inside the house.

I shrug. "Whatever you wanna do," I reply.

"We could watch a movie," Ivette suggest. "And just..."

"Cuddle like we did last time?" I finish her sentence because I knew she was too shy to say it. "Sure, I would love to cuddle with you again," I tease her because I can see her blushing. In the process, I wrap my arm around her shoulders as she leads the way towards her room.

"Stop," she mutters, quietly, trying to fight back a smile.

"I'm just teasing you," I say, planting a soft, gentle kiss on her temple.

With that said, we went up to her room, lay down on the bed and watched the movie. We even ordered some food and just spent all day just laying there, relaxing.

"Thanks for coming," She says, looking up at me, her head still resting on my chest.

"Thanks for asking me out," I reply, making her scoff.

"I did not ask you ou-"

"Sure you did," I cut her off, smiling.

She laughs. "This is not our official date, Styles," She says.

I chuckle, binging up my hand to push some hair away from her face. "Love, as long as I am with you I don't care if it's a date or not," I reply, making her blush. I knew that would happen, I know her that well. But what she did next, I was not expecting at all.

She scoots closer to my face, and without hesitating she plants a soft peck on my lips. It was just a quick kiss, but I know that for her it was a big deal, so that's why I don't say anything. Instead, I just smile and kiss her cheek, making her smile as well, before she returns to putting her head back on my chest.

Stuff like this is what I like about her. I love how she's trying to do this new (for her) kind of stuff. It makes me realize that she really likes me and that she's doing all this for me and there's nothing that makes me happier. I love that I will get to be her first in everything.

I just can't wait for those things to happen.
