3rd person pov

Harry sat on his rolling chair his client of 3 hours finally leaving he slightly spun himself as he looked at his phone

He thought he did a great job the guy was getting a huge ass tiger on his arm so today was mainly an outlining process he'd come back so Harry could fill it in then probably once more after that for finer details

He had 2 hours till his next pre-scheduled appointment unless a piercing or 2 comes in he's free to get lunch and chill

"STYLES VISTOR!" He furrowed his eyebrows he stood up shoving his phone in his pocket he stepped out walking down the short hall

There was Alexis talking to the main guy at the counter she had her tongue out "not even a scar you're right" he laughed leaning against the glass counter she nodded

"I wish more guys had tongue rings" she smiled "I think they're cute" she turned as she saw Harry she waved excitedly "HEY HARRY" she held up a bag of tacos "I brought lunch"

He looked between the 2 for a moment then said "thank you..." he trailed off debating on asking what the hell she was doing here or if he should ask how long she'd been there because Greg (the guy behind the desk) isn't friendly to anyone people usually complain about him

"See ya later Greg" she chirped as she met Harry at the end of the hall

"See ya babe" He lazily waved and went back to his phone

Harry walked Alexis to his cube opening the curtain for her she stepped in "you can sit on the work chair" he motioned to it she sat on the edge he sat on the little rolling stool and brought it closer to her "thank you for lunch I appreciate it" he thanked her before she even opened the bag

"No problem" she passed him 3 soft tacos "how has work been today?"

He just smiled at her she's in a patterned button up shirt it's pink with small roses on it and her pencil skirt goes past her knees in length with plain black heels but best off all she wore bright red lipstick he just found it endearing he liked the outfit because it was sweet but still sexy "alright" he answered "how about you?"

"Same ole same ole" she shrugged taking her first bite

He took a bite "so Greg huh? How'd you get him to acknowledge your existence?" He laughed

She rolled her eyes "I came in and said hi he didn't answer I saw he was watching something it's band I know so I said 'oh cool I like them too' told him the songs I knew by them that's all it took"

"Cool well you're one of the very few he'll talk to" he finished his first taco

"I have a way with people" she flipped her pony tail smirking

"I know" Harry laughed "so what's the occasion? Why'd you bring lunch?"

She shrugged "like a thank you" she sighed "I don't cry a lot but when I do you seem to be there... so this is like a thank you for not telling anyone how ugly of a crier I am" she left it off on a humorous note to not sound so serious

He smiled loop sidedly "you're not an ugly crier but you can cry silently which is kinda a skill" he laughed just a little he wasn't as good as the humor to hide pain kinda thing

"Right? It took many years to perfect" she laughed already over the sad moment

He paused half way through his second taco "what happened last night?"

She furrowed her eyebrows "what?"

He looked her in her eyes "Sam was at your house at 2 am why was he over?"

She shifted on the chair "I didn't answer any of his phone calls all day and he got pissy that's it, he just banged on the door and yelled for a little then left"

Harry shook his head "why didn't you call the cops?"

"Because it'll only upset him and he takes Evelyn soon I don't want him to take it out on her" she swallowed hard "I've already put him in jail twice and he just gets right back out I can't try again unless he really does something serious"

Harry finished his taco they sat in silence for about a minute "you're a great guy Harry" she mumbled

Harry noticed she'd tell him that in only the most serious of times "am I really? I couldn't imagine why" He questioned

"because you care" she answered not a second's hesitation

He smiled weakly "I only care about you and Eve I'm not that good a guy"

She shrugged "guess that makes you exclusively my good guy"

He tilted his head "you're serious aren't you?"

She furrowed her eyebrows "serious about what?"

"You genuinely think I'm a good person"

She nodded "I wouldn't say it if I didn't mean it" she shrugged timidly "I think you're amazing"

He shook his head "you don't know all the terrible things I've done"

She shook her head "you can tell me about it if you want but... I'll still think the same of you either way" she smiled that smile that melts Harry ,that smile that she usually only gives her daughter, that smile of complete and utter warm compassionate love

He felt his muscles relaxing and a smile creeping onto his own face "I might just put you to test with that"

"Wonderful I love talking to you and getting to know you better" she started on her 3rd taco so he started on his

"Evelyn is with Max?" Harry asked

"No she's with my pawpaw today his aid Gloria said he remembered her today so I rushed her over there this morning" her face flushed a little "isn't that just amazing? He's doing so well"

Harry nodded "yeah it is I hope he continues to have good health"

Her jaw dropped "Aww Harry thank you so much that means the everything to me" she put her taco on the bag and pulled him for a hug "thank you"

He jumped but wrapped one arm around her (that one without the taco) rubbing her back "you're welcome"

She continued to hug him though he would let her hug him as long as she'd like once she did pull away she rubbed his arms "thank you"

He laughed a little "Alexis" he cupped her cheek "I only want the best for you and anyone you care about I mean that okay?"

She got a touch choked up "see you are a good guy"
