Chapter 4

"Yeah sure okay." He said giving a genuine smile.

"Okay so Abby will have class on Tuesday and Thursday from 4:00 to 6:00 every week up until Christmas time when the girls will put on a production of Swan Lake in a ballet recital." I said. "And we'll need you to sign a contract after class that basically she is committed to this all the way up until the recital."

"Right sure. She'll be pleased to hear about being in Swan Lake she's watched the Barbie Swan Lake movie at least 30 times." He said slightly chuckling. I couldn't help but smile at his accent.

"If you don't mind me asking where are you from? Your accent is very interesting." He gave me a shy smile.

"Of course not. I'm from Holmes Chapel, a small town in England."

"What made you move to New York?"
I mentally face palmed for bringing it up. "I'm sorry for asking it's none of my business. You don't have to answer that." I quickly apologized.

"No! It's alright I mean I'm assuming Madame Rose told you about her mom." I nodded silently.

"Right well after the accident my sisters friend was keeping her until I could get my job to transfer me over here." He said while rubbing the back of his neck. A nervous habit that I noticed.

I wanted to ask another question but I didn't have time to think before it came out of my mouth. "Why didn't you just move her to England with you?"

"I thought about it but her whole life was here and she had already lost her mom I couldn't let her lose her home too. In the end it was just simpler for me to move here."

"That's very genuine of you. I don't know a whole lot of guys that would drop everything to move halfway across the world to take care of their niece." I said while smiling at him.

He just smiled and gave a quick 'thanks'.

"Well I better go ahead and get class started you can just have a seat in the back of the room."

"Thanks again I know how nervous she is and it means a lot that you let me watch in on her first time."

"No problem we want Abby to feel comfortable here." I said and with that I walked to the center of the class.

"Okay girls everyone grab a space on the bars and make sure some time during class you introduce yourself to our new student Abby." I said with a smile. "Let's get started."

After class was over the only ones left we're myself, Harry, and Abby. He was just finishing signing all of the contracts.

"So Abby did you enjoy your first class?" I asked.

"Yes yes yes!!! I made a new friend in class!!"

"Well I'm glad." I said walking back over to the front desk where Harry signed the last page of the contract.

"And I'm finally done. I know that it's important to take the class seriously but signing my name 20 times is a little much." He said with a husky chuckle.

"Yeah it can be a little overwhelming but Madame Rose has good intentions."

"Uncle H we need to go. My little pony is on right now we really need to go." Abby said bouncing on the balls of her feet while tugging his hand.

"Okay okay angel just let me say goodbye to your teacher." He then turned towards me. "Well I guess that's my cue to go. Can I walk you to your car?"

I was slightly taken aback by his question but just presumed he was being a gentleman since it was beginning to get dark outside.

"Sure let me just grab my bag and lock up the studio." I turned around grabbed my bag and my phone and keys and lead them out the door. After turning out the lights and making sure the lock was secure we then proceeded to my car.

"Well this is me. Thank you for walking me."

"Of course I wouldn't be able to live with myself knowing I let you walk to your car by yourself in the dark." He said while placing Abby on his back. "We'll see you on Thursday?"

"Yep I'll see you then. Goodnight Abby." I said with a small wave.

"Night Ms. Cassie." She said with a toothy grin. I then directed my attention towards him.

"Goodnight Harry."

"Goodnight Cassie."

I got into my car and watched them walk away. Her bouncing up and down on his back while smiling and giggling. That's when I realized I was smiling. Not a fake or nervous smile that I often have off but a genuine smile. The first one I've had in months.

Throughout the past 6 months Harry Styles was the first person to make me genuinely smile.
