I woke up to Harry violently shaking me and telling me to answer my damn phone. I simply groaned before turning away from him to try and get some more shut eye.

“Seriously Abs? Answer your phone!” Harry yelled and pushed me off the bed; I hit the ground with a loud thud and immediately sat up.

“I hate it when you wake me up,” I groaned and crawled over to the nightstand that my phone was resting on.

“Well if people didn’t call you so early then I wouldn’t wake you up like that,” Harry said with sleep evident in his voice. I rolled my eyes and looked at the caller ID the word ‘Dad’ flashed across my screen. I saved his number the last time he called so I knew it was him in case he called again. I took a deep breath and slid my thumb across the screen to answer it.

“Hello,” I hesitantly said.

”Abigail is that you?”

“Yes sir. Is there a particular reason you’re calling me at 9 am?” I asked as I ran my hand through my knotted hair.

”9 am? Where are you?” He said, completely ignoring my question.

“Cincinnati…”

”You are? I didn’t think you’d be able to make it out there! Anyways, I got your email and I thought I would follow up with a phone call.”

“Okay, what’s up?” I asked him as I sat cross legged on the floor.

”Well I saw you only want to meet up with me and not your mother, and I’m heading out to Ohio today to visit Gran and Gramps, are you staying with them?”

“Uh, yes sir. Harry is here too,” I cautiously told him and I saw Harry snap his head up and look at me as I mentioned him in the phone call.

”Oh he is? Great! Then I can meet him! Anyways, I’ll be seeing you later on this evening, and we’ll catch up. How does that sound?”

“Sounds good Dad! I’ll see you then?”

”You most certainly will. I’ll talk to you soon Abby,” He said before hanging up. I brought the phone down to my lap, hanging up and locking my phone. I stared off into space, I was going to see my dad today.

“What was that about?” Harry groggily said as he leaned over the side of the bed to look at me. He looked so cute in the mornings with his hair going wilder than it normally is and how he squinted his eyes because he was tired.

“My dad is coming here this evening.”

“Pardon?” Harry, with disbelief, asked me.

“I know you heard me. My dad is coming here to see my grandparents…and us,” I told him as I stood up and sat on the bed.

“Why?”

“Harry, my gramps just had a stroke, why else would my dad come here?” I said to him and he held his hands up in defense. “Are you hungry?”

“Starving,” Harry said as he held his stomach.

“Let’s go cook some breakfast then,” I told him as I stood up and made my way downstairs with Harry behind me. We walked into the kitchen and noticed it was extremely quiet, I then noticed a note taped to the tea kettle, of course Gran knew I’d make tea as soon as I got up. I peeled the note off and began to read it:

Jet and Harry,
I have to work today, I did some grocery shopping so help yourself. I will be visiting Gramps as soon as the middle school lets out at 4pm. Jet, your father is flying in this evening, I’ll pick him up. Your gramps is getting some tests done today so no need to go visit him.

-Gran

“Well Styles, looks like we are free to do whatever today,” I told him as I poured water into the kettle and turned the stove on. He went to the fridge and pulled the carton of eggs out, along with some bacon, spinach, cheese and mushrooms to make us some omelets.

“Okay, what do you want to do?” He asked as he began mixing the ingredients.

“I don’t care, we can do whatever you would like to do,” I offered him as the kettle went off and I began adding the fixings to the two cups of tea.

“Show me around town,” He simply said and I thought about it for a moment.

“Okay.”

Once breakfast was ready Harry and I quickly ate then ran upstairs to get dressed for the day. I pulled on a pair of skinny jeans, maroon toms, and Harry’s maroon Jack Wills hoodie with a white tank underneath. Harry had on a pair of dark washed skinny jeans, his white converse and a grey shirt that had lover on the left side of his chest. We both pulled beanies over our heads, believe it or not Ohio can be chilly in the summer time, and slipped on our Ray Bans before making our way out to my rental car. I pulled up outside an all year ice skating rink and put the car in park.

“Okay, this was like the hang out when I would come visit, me and all my Ohio friends would always be here. But, the first time I visited this place I was with only my grandparents and while I was ice skating I fell and broke my arm,” I told Harry and he just looked at me in disbelief.

“That’s so depressing!” He exclaimed with a smile on his face.

“The worst part….I peed my pants when I fell,” I told him and all of sudden he busted out laughing and I couldn’t help but join with him.

“You’re kidding!” He said in between laughs.

“Nope, before we went to the emergency room to get my arm looked at they had to take me back to their house so I could change!” I told him as I started to settle down from laughing. Harry then settled down too and got out of the car. I climbed out and ran after him.

“Where are you going?” I asked as I finally fell in step with him.

“Ice skating. I’ve always wanted to go ice skating in May,” he said with that stupid smirk on his face as he looked at me and held the door open for me.

“Seriously?” I asked as we walked inside and up to the counter. He nodded his head.

“Hi, I’m Michelle how many people are skating today?” Michelle, the attendant, asked.

“Two,” Harry said and the girl snapped her head up and her eyes about popped out of her head when she realized Harry Styles was standing in front of her.

“Uh—yeah. Um, that’ll be $30,” she said as she tried to keep her composure, Harry handed her the money and she put blue wristbands around our left wrists, we then walked over to get our skates.

“Sizes?” The man behind the counter asked.

“10 and a half and Abby what are you?” Harry asked me.

“Size 8 please,” I told the man and he walked off to retrieve our skates, when he brought them back Harry and I walked over to a bench where we slipped our shoes off and pulled our skates on. We slowly walked over to a locker and put my purse and our shoes in there before shutting it and taking the key. We stepped over to the rink and Harry slowly stepped on and then faced me holding his hands out.

“Come on now love,” he said and I took his hands before stepping onto the ice. We wobbled for a few seconds before Harry settled us and he had an amusing smile on his face. “Don’t fall and pee yourself again babe.”

“Shut up!” I said to him as I slapped his chest. We began skating around the rink hand in hand, first starting off slowly because neither of us have been ice skating in a while so it was a little foreign. Just as we got the hang of it we turned the corner and Harry’s feet slipped right out from under him and he pulled me down with him. I looked at him and started to laugh, and he only stared at me giving me the evil glare.

“Are you laughing because I fell?” He asked with a smile on his face and I nodded my head. “Well I’m glad I bring amusement into your life,” he said as he stood up and started to skate off.

“Oh come on! Don’t be a baby Harry!” I yelled after him and he just looked behind at me with a smug grin on his face. As I went to stand up I felt a pair of hands rest on my butt and pushed me so I fell down again. I looked behind me and saw Harry buckled over laughing and pointing at me.

“Now that was funny!” He yelled in between laughs and I glared at him.

“No it wasn’t” I mumbled as I stood up and skated away from him.

“Wait, come back! I didn’t mean it!” He yelled and skated after me. Once he caught up to me he rested his hands on my hips and pushed me up against the wall. “I’m sorry for pushing you,” he said, with his face extremely close to mine, I could feel his breath hitting my face.

“It’s okay,” I told him as I gazed into his emerald orbs. “Just don’t do it again,” I sternly told him and he nodded his head then brought his lips down on mine. We moved our lips against one another’s until we needed to come up for air.

“Shall we continue to skate?” Harry asked as he held his hand out to me and I nodded my head. We skated around the rink for another hour before we got bored with it. We exited the rink, turned our skates in and collected our items before leaving and heading out to my car. Once we climbed in the car I noticed it was almost time for my gran to have her lunch break at the middle school.

“Wanna go eat lunch with Gran?” I asked Harry as I put the car in drive.

“Sure!” Harry said as he fiddled with the radio. I drove to a Panera and ordered the food I liked, Harry liked and my Gran liked. We walked back to my car and made our way to the school to eat lunch with Gran.

“Har? Do me a favor and send her a text saying we’re coming,” I told him as I handed him my phone and he did as I asked.

“Are you sure the students won’t notice me? I don’t want to cause any havoc,” Harry stated as he placed my phone back in my purse.

“No, we’ll get there while their all in the cafeteria and hopefully leave in time before they come back. It’ll be okay you’ve got your beanie and sunglasses,” I told him while shooting him a reassuring smile. After another five minutes we arrived at the middle school and walked in to the front office to get visitor badges. The secretary didn’t even blink at Harry as he riddled off his name and showed his ID, they gave us our badges and I laced my fingers with Harry’s and led him to Gran’s classroom. We entered her empty classroom and she shot us a warm smile.

“Hey kiddos, come on in and sit down,” she said motioning to some desks she had arranged for us. Harry set the bag of food down and I placed the drink tray on the tables before taking a seat. “What have you two been up today?” She asked as she opened the bag to her sandwich.

“Not a whole lot, we went to that one ice skating rink and skated around for a bit,” I rambled off and took a bite of my soup.

“The one where you broke your elbow?” She curiously asked with a reminiscent smile on her face.

“And where she peed herself,” Harry added as he took a sip of his drink and I slapped his arm.

“Awwww yes, that one!” Gran said with laughter.

“What time does Dad get in tonight?” I asked.

“He gets in around 7 pm, he text me saying he wanted to have dinner with you two,” Gran said as she finished up her sandwich. We continued to talk as both Harry and I finished eating and when we finished Harry collected the trash and waltzed over the trash bin by her school desk, as he threw it away he picked up a picture frame.

“Hey! You framed it!” Harry said as he showed us the picture, I couldn’t really see it so I got up and looked at it.

“That’s the one that you posted on Twitter Harry! How did she get it?” I asked him and he smiled down at me.

“She asked me for it, I talk to her on the phone,” He nonchalantly said.

“Gran, you talk with him on the phone?” I asked in disbelief and she nodded her head.

“He’s quite funny.”

I couldn’t help but shake my head at this realization when my gran got up and walked over to her computer.

“He also sent me a video of you and his roommate dancing to their song! Let me just pull it up,” Gran said as she clicked a few buttons and then the video popped up on the screen.

“Harry you suck!” I said to him as we watched the video, but I couldn’t help but laugh at him. At one point in the video he turned the camera around to face him and he didn’t the cutest face, like he was laughing but he really wasn’t. I felt him rest his hand on the small of my back as I bent over to watch the video and I smiled up at him. We hadn’t even realized the bell for the students to leave lunch had rung until they all started to file into the class.

“Oh my god it’s Harry Styles!” One girl shrieked once she saw Harry turn around. His eyes got wide and he turned to me.

“Abby…” he hesitantly said as he flicked his head back towards the students.

“Don’t fret Styles, it’ll be fine. Let’s hang out for a few minutes so the halls can clear. None of these kids’ friends will believe them when they say Harry Styles was in their class today,” I reassured him and he nodded his head.

“I’m sorry Harry, I completely lost track of time!” Gran said as she patted his shoulder. “Can you forgive me?”

“Oh it’s not your fault! Don’t worry about it,” Harry said as he pulled Gran into a hug.

“Well you two go on in the back of the class then so you don’t distract the kids,” Gran said and Harry and I went to occupy the two vacant seats in the very back of the classroom.

“Sorry,” I whispered to him, he looked down and gazed into my eyes with a smile on his face. Those dimples, they made butterflies erupt in my stomach every time he smiled and when he looked at me like I was the only thing that mattered it made my heart melt. I couldn’t help but smile back at him.

“Don’t worry about it love,” Harry whispered back and squeezed my thigh in reassurance. I laced my fingers with his and played with the bracelets on his wrist while our hands rested in my lap. As Gran went over the test review with her students Harry and I joked around with one another and tried to be as quiet as possible. As Harry was in the middle of drawing a letter on my back for me to guess one of Gran’s students tapped him on his shoulder.

“Excuse me, Harry?” The girl said and Harry turned to face her.

“Yes?”

“May I have your autograph?” She quietly asked as she handed him a piece of notebook paper and a pen.

“Of course, what’s your name love?” He said and the girl blushed as he called her ‘love’. I smiled at how Harry interacted with his fans, even though he doesn’t know them on a personal level you can tell he loves them and would do anything for them.

“Abbie,” the little girl and Harry smiled and looked back at me.

“Hey, that’s her name!” Harry said as he pointed at me and smiled at the little girl.

“I know, Mrs. Grimes always talks about her,” the girl said to me and I looked at Gran who was smiling back at us. I blew her a kiss and winked at her and in response she just laughed and shook her head at me. Harry signed the paper with Abbie’s name on it and handed it back to her before returning his attention back to me.

“What was the letter?” He asked me and I pondered the thought for a second.

“Y” I said to him and he crossed his arms over his chest and pouted.

“How’d you know?” He asked.

“Harry…I knew you were going to spell your name dummy,” I told him and he faked hurt. We continued playing the game when a few more students came up to him to ask for autographs. Once the last girl was getting hers I decided to try and be funny and pushed my hair off my shoulder and onto my back then pulled it underneath my armpits so it looked like I had hairy armpits. Once Harry turned around and noticed the hair his eyes got wide and he buckled over in laughter, almost falling out of his seat. I laughed along with him and then controlled my laughter.

“I forgot to braid them, I hope you still accept me,” I said to him while I batted my eye lashes at him.

“I will always accept you!” He said and kissed my cheek. He reached into his pocket to pull his phone out and he quickly snapped a photo of me. “That is priceless love!” He showed me the photo and I rested my head on his shoulder and felt him rest his head on top of mine. He opened his Twitter app and went to compose a new message. After typing up the message and attaching the photo he posted the tweet and I soon felt my phone vibrate indicating a notification. I pulled my phone out and brought up the Twitter mention, I smiled at it.

@Harry_Styles: Should she shave it or braid it? Either way @AbbyEGrimes is perfect. pic.twitter.com/jj34FGew2 (fake link)

I smiled at the tweet and pocketed my phone. I looked at Gran and she pointed to the watch on her wrist and when I looked at mine I realized it’d be a good time to go now. I lifted my head off Harry’s shoulder and signaled to him that we should go now. We stood up lacing our fingers together and waved to Gran as we exited the classroom.

“About time!” Harry said once we got further down the hall. “One girl kept staring at me with her mouth open and I thought she was going to start drooling,” he said, jokingly. I looked at him and smiled.

“Sorry again,” I told him and he waved it off while placing his arm over my shoulder as we walked out of the school.

“What do you want to do next?” Harry asked as we both climbed into the car. When I turned the car on I noticed the in-car thermometer said it was almost 90 degrees outside, THAT IS HOT.

“Let’s go swimming at the lake,” I told him as I turned to face him. “Did you pack a bathing suit?”

“I actually did, because I couldn’t fit it in my other suitcases!” Harry exclaimed as he pulled his seatbelt on and I did the same.

“It’s set then. We’ll go back to the house, change and head over to the lake.”

Once we arrived back at the house we quickly ran inside to change into our swimsuits and gathered everything we would need. Before I ran out of my room I grabbed my camera and placed it in my bag, where I protected it with the beach towels. We ran back down the stairs and hopped in the car then headed for the lake.
