*SCARLETT'S POV*

It was the next day. My heart was pounding, I was so thankful Harry was with me. I wouldn't be able to cope without him. He looked so cute when he was sleeping. I kissed him on the nose, it woke him up and instantly, he was smiling from ear to ear.

"Thank you so much, Harry. Honestly, I wouldn't be able to look after myself without you," he put his arm over my shoulders. "I'll pay you back the £30,000 as soon as I have it!" Harry removed his arm from my shoulder and rubbed my hands into his.

"You're not going to pay us back, we gave that money to you. It was yours. It wasn't a loan babe, it belonged to you."

"I can't do that to you guys, what would Simon think?"

"He probably won't even notice."

"Do you mind if we watch TV for a bit?"

"Of course not." we snuggled up together on the bed and Harry turned the TV on. I took a sip of water that Harry made for me last night.

"So, who is Harry Styles' mystery girl?" the news reporter said, whilst zooming in on a picture. I spat out my water when I realised the picture was of me and Harry holding hands in the restaurant. Oh no.

"Oh my god." I shouted.

"Shit." he cursed.

"Harry, what does this mean?!" I panicked. I couldn't be seen as "Harry Styles'" mystery girl. No no no no no, this couldn't be happening. My own mum had just died last night and now this, it was too much."Harry I can't cope with this, it's bad enough my mum died yesterday I can't be all over the news I can't do this!" My head was spinning, the ground was dropping, I felt dizzy. I fell out of the bed and bumped on to the floor. Panic Attack. Shit.

I must have been blacked out for a couple of minutes because when I became conscious Harry was by my side with a concerned look on his face, with the glass of water I'd been drinking in his hand. With his spare one he was stroking the hair out of my face.

"Are you alright princess?" I wobbled my head and sat up.

"I'm fine, it was just a panic attack. I've had them a few times before. I've calmed down now"

"Just a panic attack?! You worried the hell out of me! I'm so glad you're okay and don't worry, you couldn't tell it was you in that picture. No one needs to find out. I can say it was a fan." Harry gave me a reassuring look.

"Are you sure?" I looked up at his eyes.

"I'm positive!"he hugged me. We were just sat there for about an hour, cuddling. Watching the news. Then Harry tapped me on the shoulder and gazed straight through to the back of my orbs. His green ones still amazed me. They shone whenever we linked eye contact. They were so soothing. "Scar?"

"Yes Sir Curly?" I winked, he chuckled.

"Will you be my girlfriend?" he bit his lip. Butterflies are back. I placed my face up close to his. Our lips were about 5mm apart. He leant in to kiss me but I pulled back. There were sparks lighting everywhere throughout my body.

"Harry Edward Styles, I've never felt this way about anyone before. You make my heart light up. I'd love to be your girlfriend, who wouldn't?" This time I leant in, stopped when our lips stroked each others. I bit down on his bottom lip and we sunk into a passionate kiss. He ran his tongue along my lips and I gave him entrance. It was the most amazing kiss of my life.

"Your friend should come and meet Niall today, we can double date?" he winked. I nodded.

"This will be good. I think it will help take my mind off everything too." I smiled.

I got my phone out to text Danielle.

From Dani.

Danielle knew about my mum before anyone, I rang her first. She was my best friend. She had offered to come round but I didn't want to be seen by anyone. Until I realised I couldn't be alone, so when Harry rang it was a bloody miracle.

To Dani
I KNOW RIGHT! He asked me out this morning after looking after me the whole night.

From Scar

"She's up for it, you texted Niall?" I asked Harry.

"Yeah, he's in too. You said one right?"

"I did baby!" I sat on his knee and gave me multiple cute kisses down his neck. He let out a soft moan.

"Do you realise how damn perfect you are? And I'm lucky enough to call you my girlfriend?!" he looked so happy, it was nice to know I could actually make someone feel that way. "On that note, I think I'll visit home before lunch so the mother doesn't worry."

"Noooo, don't go," I licked my lips. "I'll miss you too much!"

"You'll be fine without me. I'll be back in 2 hours, be ready Miss!" he chuckled. With planting a kiss, he had left. I sighed. What an eventful couple of days. It was weird to think yesterday I was chatting to my mum and today she was gone. She would never leave my heart though. In a way I was relieved that she wasn't hurting anymore. She was with her parents and her brother. She was happy, which meant I was. If I mourned over it life would be worst, so I was trying to accept it. No matter how much it was killing me, I had a fantastic boyfriend to help me through it. And I had Danielle.

*HARRY'S POV*

I got home.

"Harry babe, where have you been?!" my mum rushed to me, attacking me into a huge hug.

"I was at Scarlett's."

"Oh, Harry. That's not how you win a girl over." she frowned.

"No no no mum. You're so presumptuous!" I laughed. "I'd been looking after her, the reason she left was for her mum. She'd just had an operation and she'd woken up. But when she got there, she died suddenly. I was taking care of her, she was in bits and well...this morning I asked her to be my girlfriend. She said yes." I couldn't fight off a huge grin off my face.

"Harry you charming little dude. I feel so proud to be your mother! " she started tearing up.

"Alright mum, it's not that amazing." I giggled like a 7 year old girl. Wow.

"I can't wait to meet her! She must come round for dinner tomorrow night." she clapped her hands. She always got really excited to cook for people and I knew she'd fall in love with Scarlett the minute they started speaking.

"I'll ask her at lunch today." I smirked.

"You're going out again?" her excitement twisted frantically into a pout. "You've been back a week and a half now Harry and you've spent barely anytime with your sister and I!" she snapped, looking hurt.

"Mum, I promise you I'll spend the whole day with you and Gemma tomorrow!"

"A whole day, brill," she rolled her eyes at me. "I only get to see you twice a year and whenever you come you ditch me." This hurt me.

"I'm so sorry mum, I really am. I'll spend as much of my time with you as possible. I love you." I bent down and gave her a kiss before getting ready for lunch.

It was going to be a good day.
