CAUTION!!! SEXUAL CONTENT!!!

_______________________________

Waking up in the morning felt different. I felt more relaxed and well rested.

I realized there was an arm draped across my stomach and I looked over to see Harry sleeping with his mouth slightly parted. I leaned over and pecked his cheek softly. All of a sudden an arm pulled me in closer and I squealed with joy at his sudden act of affection.

"Good morning, beautiful." He said in his low, husky morning voice with his eyes still closed.

"Good morning!" I chirped. I tried to bounce off the bed excitedly but failed as he grabbed me and pulled me back into him.

"Where do you think you're going?" Harry asked as his hands rubbed my back.

"To start my day!" I replied.

Harry's eyes shot open. "The ball! You have nothing to wear! We'll have to go out and get you something." He said with a smirk.

"You're too good to me." I said planting another kiss on his face.

We got up and Harry began making us some breakfast as I sat at the counter in nothing but my panties and his shirt.

"I just have to say, I wasn't expecting you to kiss me as much as you do." Harry said.

"What do you mean?"

"Well, we haven't known each other long, and I just thought with you're past and all you'd be hesitant. But I'm not complaining." He explained with a smirk.

"You're right. I should be. And I am hesitant in a lot of ways. I just can't explain it, Harry. Its kind of like what you said about me last night. There's just something indescribable about you and something I just can't shake. I guess I just can't help myself. Like I said last night, I need you Harry." I said surprising myself at how transparent I was with him.

"I'm glad it's mutual." Harry said with a wink.

I just laughed and said, "But they've only been kisses on your face, remember."

Looking down at what I was wearing I realized what little I had was at Kevin's house and if I were to stay with Harry I'd need to replace them.

"Harry, if I'm to stay here I'll need things of my own, right?" I asked.

"Yeah! You can get those as I get your dress. I want to surprise you." He said with excitement in his voice. Just the fact that he finds joy in surprising me with something so big as to getting me an extravagant dress truly shows a lot about his character. He's so selfless and it's only causing me to grow more feelings towards him the more I get to know him.

We finished breakfast, talking and learning more about each other, and headed off to run our errands. We went to a strip mall where he was getting the dress and I went to a couple stores to get my things with the money Harry gave me, which was hard to except. While I was checking out my items at a convenience store I noticed a magazine on a rack by the register. A photo of Harry and me was on the front cover in a small bubble off to the side of a photo of Justin Bieber. The caption read "Harry Styles Spotted with Mystery Girl!" I picked up the magazine and purchased it.

I sat at the bench where Harry and I agreed to rendezvous and opened the magazine to the article. It spoke of how Harry was seen with me yesterday and how I was discovered through a viral video on YouTube. At the end of the article the author questioned if I would be Harry's date tonight at the masquerade fundraising ball.
