Innocent (Harry Styles AU)

What Was I Thinking?

        As I walk into the club with my best friend Morgan, I think to myself, "What have I gotten myself into?" I am not the party type, at all. I don't drink, or do drugs, or grind ferociously on people of the opposite sex. It is just not my thing.

        As I look around at all the sweaty bodies dry humping each other, I try to think of a way to get out of there as fast as possible. As soon as I make a sprint towards the exit, Morgan grabs my arm and hauls me back in.

        "Jordan," she says, "you promised me that you would go out just this one night, for me!" I sigh and reluctantly make my way back into the steamy center of the club. Morgan has been my best friend since I was in high school. I noticed her sitting by herself on the first day of sophomore year and decided to sit with her. I have always known what it's like to feel left out and I didn't want someone else to feel that sadness. She has been my best friend ever since and now we go to NYU together. She has a reserved personality, like myself, but when we get together, it's a whole different story.

        My crazy best friend was now making her way into the center of the club and began randomly dancing with some guy. Did I mention that she pregamed before this happy excursion? I, of course, so rightfully declined her offer to get crazy drunk. As I slowly made my way out of the crowd and over to the sofas spread out along the walls, someone caught my eye.

        I glanced at this handsome man sitting a few feet away, but then shook my head and focused on my phone. But I could still feel someone's eyes on me. I slowly looked up and saw the beautiful boy look down. He knew I had caught him staring. Usually, I would just go back to what I was doing or avoid the situation but I just couldn't. This man made my jaw drop and my hands sweat. He had beautiful chocolate brown curls and lips that looked smoother than velvet. All of a sudden I felt myself stand up. "Wait a minute, what am I doing?!" I mentally yelled at myself. Before I knew it, I was standing in front of this God-like creature.

        "Hi" I said. He slowly looked up at me and I gasped internally. His eyes were a beautiful evergreen color and just looking at them made my heart melt. I noticed the blush on his cheeks when he said "Hello" in the most glorious Bristish accent. I really wanted to kiss him on those soft lips. Okay, back up, I did not just think that. He's still staring at me and I mentally punch myself for not saying anything back.

He looked just as uncomfortable in this god-forsaken place as I felt, so I said, "This isn't your usual scene, is it?" to take the edge off.

"Not at all." he replied. "Mine either", I said as I smiled at him. He smiled back and just when I thought he couldn't get any more gorgeous. Seeing his amazing smile made my knees shake.

"Would you like to go get some ice cream?" He said to me and waited expectedly. I had to think for a minute. I barely knew this guy, I literally have only been talking to him for two minutes and now we're going for ice cream?

"Sounds good. I'm Jordan, by the way." I said. "Lovely to meet you Jordan, I'm Harry".
