Take My Hand

RAQUELS' POV
I admitted to defeat there was no way i was going to get out of going to harry's family home, but i wasn't so sure i wanted out. in fact i wanted nothing more than to spend more time with him. i wanted to know everything about him. i admit going home with him might send mixed signals to harry's family, and even to harry, but he admitted he was intrigued by me, but I'm not going to lie, i felt the same way. Just because i was fascinated by him that didn't mean anything, there was no ring on my finger, if anything we could become friends, and who knows what will happen after that, i guess the only thing i could do now is to live in the moment. That was it i was living in the moment, but i never lived in the moment, i had my life planned out since i was eight, graduate top of my class, go to college, graduate college with a degree in pre- law, and then attend law school, and become an environmental lawyer. Sure i imagined a boyfriend in my future and eventually a husband, i didn't date around i believed in a one true love, that one true love would love me and one day propose, but Charlie ruined that fantasy of mine when he hurt me. Now I chose to stick to the plan and become successful and rise above everyone so they can't push me down.

" So do you want to walk or get a cab?" Harry asked me

"umm walk i enjoy the fresh air."

"you sure its a bit of walk and its freezing and you don't have a coat on, here take mine i don't want you getting sick on my watch." he shrugged his jacket off

" and i don't want you getting sick on my account, your family would hate me if they knew, i put you at risk twice already and we just met." i handed his jacket back to him

"Don't worry about me I've got a strong immune system, seriously take my jacket, ill be fine." he said, as he put the jacket on top of shoulders.

"thank you." I said as i put the jacket on properly

for some reason we were being followed by crowds, why were we being followed?

"Umm, i don't want to sound paranoid or anything but why are we being followed?" I asked him

"just take my hand don't worry." He said extending his hand, and i did and he intertwined his fingers in mine. His pace quickened we turned corners trying to lose the crowd, but they were quick on our heels, we began running and then turned a corner into a narrow alleyway. He pushed me against the wall, and i began laughing this seemed insane i couldn't help but laugh, he pressed his fingers to my lips, motioning me to keep quiet, his finger lingering on my lips longer than it needed to. But soon enough he started laughing too.

"I think we lost them," he said refraining himself from laughing

" this is weird, Styles why were we being followed?"

" Ill explain when we get to my house, were almost there, it will seem really funny to you than." he said while taking my hand again.

HARRY'S POV

It was so nice being treated like i wasn't famous but i couldn't have it that way for long and i knew that, i thought i would keep it a secret for a little longer but i knew once crowds began to form my celebrity status wouldn't be a secret anymore. I only had the ten minute walk to my family home left and then that was it i would have to explain to her exactly why we were being followed by a group of teenage girls.

" how much longer is the walk?" she asked me

" Ten minutes, why? are you complaining we could've taken a cab."

" nope I'm enjoying this walk." her eyes flickering over our joint hands, I flashed her a smile.

"lets play a game, though i get bored while walking."

"What kind of game i asked her."

" truth or dare," she asked her

"while walking will that even work out?"

"That makes it funner." she answered

" okay, ill start, truth or dare?" i asked her

"dare," she answered almost immediately

" okay… I dare you to lick that lamppost, unless you act like a girl and chicken out," I knew after saying that she was going to lick it, so i pulled my phone out, to get a picture as she walked over to the lamppost.

"Okay…" She walked over leaned into the lamppost and i quickly snapped a picture, when she pressed her tongue to the lamppost.

" i can't believe you just did that." I'm sharing this picture, do you have a twitter?" I asked her.

"nope, not a big fan of social media sites." she answered, now it made a little more sense of why she wasn't well aware of who i was. "Why what are you doing with that picture?"

"nothing that concerns you.." i lied while i pressed send and i did it just in time because she ripped my phone out of my hand.

"Made a new friend today and guess what it seems she's a big fan of lampposts" I tweeted with an attached image of her licking the lamppost.

" you ass." she told me

" babe, your in London we pronounce it arse here." I smirked down at her.

" okay now your turn truth or dare, unless you pussy out and pick dare."

"ummmm ….." I extended my answer knowing we were a few seconds from my house.

" well whats it going to be, pussy?" She asked me she was growing impatient. This was entertaining.

" oh i guess well have to continue this later were here." I said climbing up my front steps.
