Eve POV

Since my half mental break down I tend to get every two or so months, I think everything between Harry and I have been good since then. I do feel a little closer to him since I let myself be open towards him. Usually I would push Kris away when she wants to help me. I think that's because she would always tell me I told you so.

I got home from the dog shelter and now I'm relaxing.

Doug is on my lap playing with his toy. My phone dings making me look to it.

Harry: hi :)

Me: hii

Harry: what are you doing?

Me: nmu?

Harry: nothing

Harry: did you want to go out tomorrow night?

Me: sureee

Me: do you have somewhere in mind?

Harry: a sushi place?

Me: i never had sushi

Me: too expensive for my taste

Harry: i'm paying ofc

Me: that wasn't me hinting youre gonna have to pay Harry

Me: if i hate it can we get taco bell?

Me: are you calling me fat?

Harry: that wasn't a joke Eve, i thought you thought i was calling you fat

Harry: don't call me that

Me: sorry

Harry: oh my fucking god

Me: :)

Harry: goodnight Eve

Me: goodnight Harold

Harry: smh

I lock my phone and my eyes look to Doug who looks like he's going to fall asleep. "Let's try to go to bed early today." I say to my dog. I pick him up and walk to my room.

I put the dog on his usual spot on my bed and get under my covers. My head rests on my pillow and I let out a small breath.

***

I didn't fall asleep till three a.m.

I had to wake up at seven for work, so I'm not in my happiest mood. I'll take a nap on my lunch break.

I walk into the office with tired eyes. I'd rather fall asleep at 11:30 or 12 then three in the fucking morning.

"Here you go." I say to Harry while giving him his usual paperwork and such. A yawn leaves my lips.

"Thanks." He stands up and places them on his couch. "Didn't get a good sleep?" He questions me.

"I fell asleep at three." I murmur. "Anyways, see you later. I gotta do emails." I pull my hair into a messy bun.

"You look tired."

"What gave that away?" I remark.

"The under eye circles." I scoff causing a smile to go on his lips. "If you're too tired to go out tonight let me know."

"I'll be fine. I just need a power nap." I yawn again. Harry smiles at me. "Damn it." I mutter.

"What?"

"I forgot to feed Doug." I shrug. "I'll be doing that on my lunch break."

"Starving the dog now? Nice." I nudge him.

"Have a good day Mr. Styles."

"You too Ms. Collins." I roll my eyes playfully and leave his office.

***

My head darts off of my pillow in panic.

Fuck.

I reach for my phone and see it's 6:30 at night.

No.

No.

No.

I see text messages on my phone and I sigh.

Harry: eve??

Harry: it's past your lunch

Harry: evvvvvvvveeee

Harry: are you okay??

Harry: i'll cover your emails, just please text back

Harry: i hope you're just in a deep sleep

Harry: i'll drop by at 6:30 to check on you

Me: I'm sorry

Me: I went to take a power nap and it turned into a big nap

Harry: work Harry: I need to talk to you tomorrow morning
Friend Harry: I'm glad you got a nap in

Me: :////

Me: am I in trouble?????

Harry: we'll talk about it tomorrow

Me: g8

Harry: I'm here open your door

I roll out of bed and head to my front door. I slowly pull it back and see the tall man with green eyes and curly hair.

"If you give me twenty minutes I can be ready to leave." I say.

He shows me a brown bag. My head tilts. "I ordered some things from the menu I think you would like. We can eat in and watch TV."

"I feel bad now." I murmur.

"Don't." He grins softly. He leans down and pecks my lips. "We're is Doug?"

"In my room." I say. I walk away from Harry and to my bedroom. He follows behind me.

I sit down where I was before and Harry sits beside me. Doug is by my feet.

"Is there raw fish?" I ask.

"No." He chuckles. "All cooked. If you like it we can try the raw ones, for the more rich experience." I laugh causing him to smile.

"I hope I don't like it because I want Taco Bell." I say aloud making his head shake. "Did you want me to pay half?"

"No, Eve." Harry says. He takes out some boxes and tells me which each ones are.

***

Sadly I liked it so I'm not getting Taco Bell.

I'll get it tomorrow if I still crave it.

We're still in my room watching TV. We're watching the first season of American Horror Story. We're on episode four.

I look at the clock and see it's nearly nine. "Don't you have to get to bed soon?" I remark to Harry who nudges me.

"Eh." He says. "I stay for a few more minutes."

"How kind of you." I say making him chuckle. "Do you live in a house?" I ask him curiously. I don't know much about him, which makes me wonder a lot. His green eyes shift over to me.

"Yeah." Harry murmurs. "I'm moving to a pent house soon though."

"Oh, why?"

"I don't need a house." He sits up. "I should be going. I have to meet with Liam at six." He sighs.

"Was I overstepping?" I ask timidly.

"No. You're fine." Harry kisses my cheek. "I'll see you tomorrow."

"How much trouble am I in?" I ask.

"Can't say." He murmurs. "Goodnight Eve."

"Night." I mumble. "Your birthday is tomorrow, right?"

"You remembered?" His eyebrows furrow.

"Yeah." I say. "Happy almost birthday."

"Thanks." Harry chuckles. A small smile forms on his pink lips. "When is yours? I never asked."

"December 24th." I answer.

"Christmas Eve?" Harry says with a snicker.

"My dad picked the name." He smiles. His deep dimples appear on his rosy cheeks. "Anyways I'll buy you lunch tomorrow for your birthday."

"You don't have too." His head tilts slightly.

"It's a meal Harold. Chill out."

"What are you getting me? Taco Bell?" He remarks with a smirk.

"Maybe." I murmur. He laughs and says goodbye to Doug.

Harry soon leaves my apartment and I lay back down on my mattress.

It's hard to believe we've been going on dates for almost a month now. It feels shorter. To me anyways, I don't know about him.
