I hadn't really thought about meeting the boys, I guess I was just too wrapped up in Harry and work.

"Ok." I said smiling.

"Great, We're going to Nobu for dinner, so dress nice."

"Ok, well I guess I better shower and stuff, I've been working on my apartment all day."

"Ok" he paused. "you know... I could join you." Harry said, pulling me closer, placing a kiss on my forehead.

"You could, but then I wouldn't want to leave, and you do want me to meet the boys, don't you?"

Harry sighed. "Yeah, I do." He said softly.

"Ok, well I'm gonna go get ready." I placed a kiss on his cheek and turned to walk upstairs, leaving Harry in the living room.

Harry's POV

I was excited for the lads to meet Alex, I really liked her, and I knew they would too. Suddenly I felt nervous.


Alex's POV

I took a shower and got myself ready. I couldn't decided on what to wear. I changed my outfit like 5 times before finally settling on a simple black dress, black heels, my favorite silver stud earrings, and a cranberry colored clutch.

I made my way downstairs, looking for Harry.

"You look incredible." He said.

I blushed. I loved it when he complimented me, I could tell he meant it, and he wasn't just saying it to say it. I noticed that Harry had changed too, he was wearing a white button up shirt, a dark blazer, his classic black skinny jeans, and black boots. He looked so good, I couldn't wait till the night was over, so I could have him all to myself.

"Me? You look so.. sexy."

He laughed, pulling me into his arms, "I guess we're just one good looking couple."

"Mmmhhmm, I could agree with that statement."

Harry's lips pressed into mine. I wrapped my hands around his neck, gently pulling on his hair, a little moan slipped out of him.

Harry reluctantly pulled his lips from mine. "I called us a taxi, it should be here any minute."


45 minutes later we were pulling up in front of Nobu, there was a huge crowd of people. Girls of all ages where screaming and snapping pictures. 'Shit' I thought. I get so wrapped up in being with Harry that I forget he's a celebrity and that millions of people adore him. Harry paid the taxi driver and started to open the door but stopped, turning to face me.

"Sorry." he said.

"No, its ok. I just forget that you're a celebrity."

Harry smiled at me and leaned in, placing a kiss to my cheek. He turned and opened the door. The screaming got louder. There were girls crying and gasping for air.

"HARRY! I LOVE YOU!" screamed multiple girls, upon the door opening.

"HARRY! HARRY OVER HERE! CAN I GET A PICTURE!?" other girls screamed.

"I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU HAVE A GIRLFRIEND! WHY HER? SHE'S HIDEOUS." One girl screamed. Well that hurt a little bit.

We were making our way through the crowd, Harry holding my hand tightly. He smiled and waved, stopping to take pictures with a few lucky fans.

While we were stopped at a group of girls, Harry taking pictures, a girl next to me tapped me on the shoulder. I turned to face her, "What's your name?" she asked me. I was a confused at first, but then the headline of the newspaper appeared in my head "HARRY'S MYSTERY GIRL" was the title.

I smiled at her. "Alex. Nice to meet you. What's your name?" I said, extending my free hand to her.

She shook it. "Hanna. Nice to meet you too. You're really pretty." she said.

I couldn't help but blush. "Thank you, you are too. You're eyes are beautiful." I said, looking into her crystal clear blue eyes.

"Thanks." she blushed back.

Harry started to walk forward, but I pulled him back. He looked at me confused. I leaned into him, whispering in his ear. "Take a picture with this girl here," I said motioning to Hanna. "Her name is Hanna."

He nodded, walking toward Hanna, "Hi Hanna." She smiled a big, bright, bubbly smile.

"Hi." she said shyly. Harry leaned in to get a picture with her.

"Wait," she said. "Alex, will you get in the picture too?"

I nodded, it was a weird feeling, someone you didn't really know wanting a picture with you.

We took the picture and before we headed inside, Harry turned to Hanna and kissed her cheek.

Girls all round us starting screaming.

"SHE'S SO LUCKY!"
"I WISH HARRY WOULD KISS ME!"
"MY LIFE SUCKS."

I said goodbye to Hanna as Harry led me inside the restaurant. Once inside it was like a breath of fresh air, it was a lot quieter in there than it was outside. We were greeted by a smiling hostess. She led us to a private room near the back of the restaurant. I suddenly started feeling really nervous. I was about to meet my boyfriends best friends.

"Harry! Finally man, we've been waiting for you guys." Louis said.

"Hey Louis. Sorry man, it was a mad house out there." Harry said, letting go of my hand and leaning in to give Louis a hug.

"And this must be Alex, I'm Louis." Louis said, pulling me into a hug. I hadn't expected that.

"Hi." I said shyly.

Harry grabbed my hand again, leading me over to the rest of the table.

"Alex these are the guys," Harry said, pointing to each one individually. "There's Liam."

"Hi, nice to meet you." Liam said, extending his hand to me.

"Hi." I said with a smile.

"That's Niall."

"Hey!" Niall said with a wave. "Nice to meet you."

"Hi." I said, blushing. Really? All I could manage to say to each of them was hi.

"Here we have Zayn and Perrie."

"Hi love." Zayn said. "Hi, it's so good to meet you." Perrie said, standing up to give me a hug.

"Hi, I'm so glad to meet you too." I said, hugging Perrie. She was sweet.

"You've already met Louis."

I smiled at him.

"And last but not least, this is Eleanor."

She smiled at me, getting up to give me hug, just like Perrie had.

"Hello, lovely to meet you." she said pulling me into a hug.

"Hi." I said, one last time. Kicking myself for my limited vocabulary.

"You can sit here." Eleanor said, motioning to the empty seat next to her.

"Thanks." I said, taking my seat.

Harry sat next to me. He placed his hand on my knee, trying to calm my nerves. I looked at him and smiled.

"Are you ok?" he whispered into my ear.

"Yeah, I'm ok, just a little overwhelmed." I whispered back.

"So Harry, how did you meet such a lovely lady as Alex? Not at your usual club scene I presume." Louis said, grinning.

"You're funny mate. No, actually we met on the airplane. Alex was moving to London from LA." Harry stated, a little bit of annoyance hanging on his words.

I placed my hand on top of his that still rested on my knee, soothing him. I felt him relax.

"Yeah we sat next to one another on the plane, we started talking and we hit it off." I explained, with a smile on my face.

"That's so cute." Perrie exclaimed, clapping her hands once. "Sorry, I'm a hopeless romantic." She said blushing.

*********

All of us talked and laughed for hours. It felt so natural, being with all of them. I enjoyed Harry's group of friends.

"So Alex, what do you do?" Eleanor asked.

"I'm the head makeup artist for Burberry."

"Oh my gosh! That's awesome! You must be excited for fashion week then!"

"Yeah, and nervous. I've only just started working for them, and I've never been the head makeup artist for such a big event before."

"Well judging on how your makeup is done tonight, I'm sure you'll do just fine." Perrie chimed in.

I blushed. "Thanks, I hope so."

"So Burberry," Niall said, almost questioning it. "So you've met Cara then?"

I tensed up. My mind going back to the argument Cara and I had in the elevator just the day before.

"Niall!" Liam said harshly.

"What? She's bound to meet her sometime." Niall said defensively.

"No, it's ok. Really it is. I did meet her, yesterday." I said pausing. Harry tightened his grip on my knee. "She seems lovely." I lied.

"Just you wait." Zayn quietly said.

My eyes flashed in his direction. I hadn't expected that from him. He sat there pretty quiet the whole night.

Harry leaned his head close to mine, his lips close to my ear. "Zayn never liked Cara." He whispered.

I nodded my head, not sure what to say.

The waitress walked into the room just then, I was silently thanking her, there had been this awkward feeling in the room since Zayn had made his comment.

"Would anyone be interest in the dessert menu?" She asked.

"Me!" Niall exclaimed, before anyone else had a chance.

"Of course you would." Laughed Liam.

"Hey! Shut up!" Niall said, playfully hitting Liam on the shoulder.

The feeling in the room went back to normal.

Niall ate his dessert, looking happy as a clam. I sipped my vodka and cranberry, watching Harry interact with his friends. He looked so happy. I loved seeing him like that. He had a permanent smile on his face, laughing at Louis's jokes. I was falling, falling hard for him, and fast.

"Alex." Harry said, pulling me out of my daze.

"Huh?" I said, shaking my head slightly.

"I asked if you were ready to go. Are you ok?"

"Oh yeah, I'm fine. Just thinking." I said. "I'm ready whenever." That's when I noticed that I was the only one still sitting, everyone else were already in the process of putting there jackets on. I had forgotten to grab one, the weather was so nice earlier that day I hadn't even thought about it. That was something that I'd have to get used to. In LA it was always warm, even when the sun went down.

I stood up, taking Harry's hand. I walked over to Eleanor and Perrie.

"It was so nice to meet both of you." I said, smiling. They were really sweet girls, I could tell that we would get along. They each pulled me into a hug, agreeing with what I said.

"You should give us your number and we could go out to lunch sometime!" Eleanor said, Perrie agreed.

"Ok cool!" I gave each of them my number, as well as them giving me theirs. It was nice to be making some friends in London, that was something I really didn't have a lot of in LA. I was really liking London. London gave me a lot of things I didn't have in LA, my dream job, a wonderfully amazing boyfriend, and friends. I couldn't be happier.

They each pulled me into another hug. I smiled and turned to the guys.

"Alex! It was a pleasure." Liam said, pulling me into a hug.

"Likewise." I smiled.

I hugged the rest of the guys, Louis, Zayn, and lastly Niall.

When we were hugging Niall whispered in my ear. "Sorry for bringing up Cara."

"Don't worry about it Niall, it was bound to happen." I said, offering him a genuine smile.

He sighed "Ok, but I really am sorry."

I grinned at him one last time before Harry entwined his fingers in mine. He leaned his face down to my ear.

"Ready to get out of here?"
I could sense the lust in his voice.

I nodded. I liked everyone I had met that night, but I couldn't wait to have Harry to myself.

We said one last goodbye to everyone before heading out of the restaurant. We stepped outside, the crowd had died down a lot, only a few people where left outside, including Hanna, the sweet girl from earlier.

Just then I realized how cold it was outside. I shivered. "Here." Harry said, shrugging out of his blazer and placing it on my shoulders.

"Thank you." I said, putting my arms through the sleeves.

We headed toward the taxi waiting for us. I glanced in Hanna's direction, smiling at her. She waved me over. I let go of Harry's hand, he turned to look at me. I walked over to Hanna.

"Thank you for being so nice to me earlier, and for getting Harry to take a picture with me." She said, her cheeks were red. I couldn't tell if she was blushing, or if it was because it was so cold out. It was probably a combination of both.

I reached down for her hand, holding it in mine.

"Anytime, thank you for your sweet words from earlier."

"It's nice to see Harry with someone as sweet and nice as you."

I smiled at her, glancing back at Harry, he stood just outside the taxi, a confused look on his face. I looked back at Hanna.

"I'm lucky to have him." I said, almost to myself.

"That you are." She giggled.

I laughed along with her.

"Thank you, again." I said to her. She smiled at me. I didn't know what else to say, so I pulled her in for a hug. I sighed, I wish all of Harry's fans where like this. I hadn't said anything to him about it, but I saw the things some of them where saying about me on twitter, and I heard some of the nasty things they said about me on the way into Nobu.

Hanna pulled away.

"I think you better go. I think someone is waiting for you." She said, pointing to Harry. I looked at him and smiled. I turned back to Hanna one last time and kissed her on the cheek.

"Thanks. You don't know how much your nice actions mean to me." I said. She nodded her head. I smiled one last time, letting her hand go, and turned to walk to Harry.

When I reached Harry he opened the door to the taxi, placing his hand on the small of my back, leading me into the taxi. When we were in the taxi and the door was shut he turned to me.

"What was that all about?" He asked.

I sighed, a smile spreading across my face. "Nothing."
