One Shots

Madi&Harry

I let my eyes slide closed as the music sweeps over me. My escape from this boring job. I'd been at this register for a good 2 hours now and I was bored to death. A cough breaks through the music and I jump, my eyes flying open as I see the boy in front of the register.

"Crap sorry" I say quickly pulling out my headphones casting a glance around for my boss. We weren't supposed to have music at work but I couldn't live without it.

"No problem" he says with a smile. "I'd probably be doing the same thing. What are you listening to?" he asks curiously.

"The Fray" I say with a grin as I start ringing up his items.

"I love them!,” he says breaking into a dimpled smile. "They are so good." I nod in agreement

"I just love You Found Me" I say and he smiles nodding his head also.

"Do you have like a rabbit farm or something?" I ask with a laugh after scanning what had to be the 5th bag of carrots. He chuckles shaking his head.

"No, my flat mate is just obsessed with them. If we don’t have any in the house he just loses it." he says with a smile.

"Must have amazing sight" I mutter earning another laugh from him. “So you’re a long way from homes aren’t you?” I ask raising an eyebrow at him and he looks at me startled.

“What?” he asks and I smirk slightly.

“The British accent is kind of a give-a-way,” I say and a look of relief sweeps over him.

“Oh, yea, my friends and I are here in the States for a while” he says. I nod my head.

“Sounds like fun”

“We’re kept pretty busy, but yea, it’s been amazing”he replies. As I finish ringing him up, I take a moment to take in his appearance. He looked vaguely familiar, but I couldn't quite place it.

"I don’t know you by any chance do I?" I ask earning a confused look from him. "It's just, you look really familiar." Understanding dawns on his face and he laughs to himself before shaking his head.

"No, I'm not from around here. Wish I had gone to school with a beautiful girl like you though" he says with a wink causing me to blush. He signs the receipt before leaning against the counter looking at me. "What time do you get off work?" he asks.

"8" I say with a smile "Why?"

"Well we’re in town for a couple more days, so I thought that maybe I could use that time to take a lovely girl out for a cup of coffee" he says with a cheeky smile. I give a small laugh before nodding my head.

“That sounds like fun” I say with a smile

“I’ll see you at 8 then" he says flashing me a dimpled smile before grabbing his bags and heading out the door. I watch him disappear out the front door to a waiting car before my attention turns back in front of me. A magazine on the rack across from the counter catches my eye and I step out from behind the counter and grab the magazine as recognition slowly floods through my body. My eyes widen as I stare at the cover seeing the face of the boy I'd just met. Life Story of One Direction, I read before my gaze flicks back to his face. I'd just met Harry Styles.
