Harry stood from the table and held his hand out for Juliet. She sighed, but took it anyways. Once she was on her feet, Harry turned to face her, holding her hand tight as he stared down into her eyes.
‘’I promise you’ll be safe with me. I have plenty of guest rooms, and you can choose which ever one you’d like.. and I, I have entirely too much for just myself, so having you there won’t be a bother.’’ Harry tells her, gulping gently, just hoping she will take his offer and trust him.
That was all he wanted.
“I guess there’s no harm there.. but Harry.. you hardly know me.’’ She whispers, keeping her gaze locked with his.
‘’Tomorrow.. I can arrange us a lunch or a dinner reservation.. and you and I can talk about anything you want. Or in the morning, or anytime you want.. In the limo even, just, I promise I’ll tell you anything you want to know.’’ Harry assures her, stepping closer and reaching for her other hand.
She gladly gives it to him and he brings them both up to his mouth. He rests his chin on top of her hands, closes his eyes and smiles lightly.
‘’Let me take care of you.’’ He whispers as he opens his eyes, looking down to see Juliet’s cheeks flustered, biting her bottom lip, nodding lightly to him.
He places a kiss on each of her knuckles softly, sweetly, as a sign of assurance, a sign of promise.

Within five minutes, Harry’s driver had arrived at the café in his shiny black limousine.
“Mr. Styles, it is indeed quite late.. Is everything alright?’’ Bennett asks as he steps out of the car and comes around the front of the limo.
Juliet watches the man closely as he comes to the passenger’s side and opens the very back door, gesturing with his hand for them to get on in.
‘’Go on.. I’ll be with you in a minute, love.’’ Harry says, letting go of Juliet’s hand and nodding towards the open door.
She hesitates at first, but looks up at him to see him lightly smiling at her. She looks away and steps closer to the car. Juliet wastes no time getting in the warm car and out of the cold weather.
‘’I was going to call you about an hour ago while I as walking, to get you ready to come get me.. but I was um, stopped by a situation.’’ Harry tells him, a sigh leaving his mouth as he turns his attention on Bennett, talking with his voice low so Juliet wouldn’t hear, but she could, and she was listening without looking, hoping not to be obvious about it.
‘’Ahh, I see. Care to tell me what exactly?’’ Bennett says, a light smile on his face.
Harry looked at the older man’s face, noticing the grey tints on his goatee and the wrinkles beginning to welcome themselves on the man’s pale skin.
‘’I’ll inform you about everything later on.. as of now I wouldlike to get this girl in a warm place, as do I.’’ Harry nods lightly, turning towards the door and beginning to get in the car.
‘’No problem, sir.’’ Bennett says before shutting the door for Harry and making his way back to the driver’s seat.
Five or so minutes after the limo had pulled away from the café and back onto the main road, Harry looked over at Juliet to find her with her head against the window opposite of his side, her eyes closed and her mouth closed as well. She was asleep, and he could surely understand why.
He smiled lightly, sliding over on the leather seat beside her. He slides his arm around her shoulders and gently guides her head off the cold glass and onto his welcoming shoulder.
She groaned at the movement but soon got comfortable beside Harry, her hand on his thigh, the other in her lap tucked between her thighs, fighting to keep warm.
Harry reached into his pocket without moving too much to disturb Juliet and grabbed his phone. He unlocked it and searched for the specific contact he wanted. Once he found it, he pressed it and hit the call button.
As he pressed the phone up to his ear, he awaited for the person to answer. It didn’t take long, only a few rings, before someone picked up.
‘’Hello?’’ The man’s voice said with a yawn, probably most likely confused on why Harry was calling him so early in the morning.
‘’I’m going to have to cancel on you for our meeting, I have some personal business to attend to for the next few days.’’ Harry says, looking down at Juliet’s hand on his thigh, smiling lightly to himself.
‘’Alright..’’ The man replied just before Harry hung up the phone.
He didn’t intend for a full blast conversation, he just wanted to state the news and move on.

Harry knew the ride would be a good fifteen minutes, he lived outside of the city, way outside. He loved it though, not to be so crowded up, just to have his own space in the middle of a major population.
New York City was just where his record label headquarters was located, not where his house was.
Juliet stirred beside him, acting as if she was about to wake up from her short but probably well needed nap. Harry sat still, hoping she would go on back to sleep until they arrived at his estate, but he figured she was going to wake up because she began to release little groaning noises and sighs as she moved around against him.
“Harry..’’ Juliet mumbled his name softly, resulting in him to smile at her cuteness, he actually enjoyed this so far, he was appreciative of her.
‘’I’m right here, love.. go on back to sleep.’’ Harry says soothing as he grabs her hand with his after bringing his arm from around her shoulders.
‘’ ‘m not sleepy.’’ She says, her voice muffled by her shoving her face further against Harry’s bicep.
‘’You just took a ten minute nap.. I’m sure you are, we’ll be to my house soon, just go back to sleep for a few more minutes.’’ Harry tells her, looking down to see the most beautiful site he’s ever witnessed to see in his entire life.
Juliet’s arms wrapped around his, both of her hands on his, her legs pulled onto the seat and her hair a mess on her head. She liked the warmth Harry gave off, and he liked the feelings she was giving his heart.
‘’Shhh..’’ Harry whispered as Juliet mumbled something under her breath, he couldn’t make it out and couldn’t even attempt to.
It didn’t take her long to quiet down, she was out like a light within a minute of the new silence.


* * *


“Juliet.. Juliet.’’ Harry said again, his hand shaking Juliet’s thigh lightly, trying to get her to wake up.
She groans and pushes his hand away, turning to face the door and carry on with her sleep.
‘’Juliet, love, c’mon.. we’re home.’’ Harry says into her ear, grabbing her hand and squeezing her palm tight, doing anything he can to get her wake up.
She doesn’t bulge, only attempts to push her away, but Harry was a lot bigger than her and certainly a lot stronger. Harry sighed as he realized this wasn’t going to work.
He released her hand and got out of the limo, shutting his door behind him. Bennett was patiently waiting, it was almost four o’clock in the morning and the man needed his sleep, as did Harry and Juliet too.
Harry walked around to the other side quickly, smiling a little to himself at what he was about to do. He had done so much tonight, but this might just be the sweetest thing, or at least he hopes.
He opens the door gently, making sure Juliet didn’t fall out. Thankfully, she wasn’t leaning against the door anymore and was faced forward, her arms crossed around her chest.
Harry slide an arm behind her and one under her knees as he leaned into the limo. Once he knew for sure he had the right hold on her, he pulled her out of the car and shut the door with his foot. He walked around the front of the car so Bennett knew he could go on and go back home now. Juliet slowly opened her eyes as she put her arms around Harry’s neck, holding on tight as he took her up the front steps and towards the door.
‘’Harry.’’ She mumbled his name, resting her head in the crook of his neck as he held her tightly in his arms.
‘’Shh.. I’m going to take you to the bedroom.’’ Harry whispers softly back as he pressed a soft kiss to her temple.
He opened the door with ease, knowing it was unlocked because he told the man at the front gate house to unlock the alarm system for him just in case, but it would lock back as soon as he was inside and the door was shut.
Harry shut the door and wasted no time turning on the lights, instead he made his way across the foyer to the broad stair case. He sighed, knowing this was going to be a long trip up to the third floor, but he didn’t mind one bit right now, he’d do anything for this girl in his arms, that was for sure.


* * *


“You said.. I could.. pick my room.’’ Juliet smiled as she leaned up a little in Harry’s arms, more aware of the current moment than before.
Harry smiled at her as he nodded, ‘’Of course you can.’’
‘’I wanna be.. in the room closest.. to you.’’ She tells him, resting her head back against his shoulder and closed her tired eyes.
‘’Alright..’’ Harry says as he heads down the hallway of the third floor where his bedroom was located.
He was hoping she would choose a room on the same floor as his, it would make him feel a little better and would assure him she was okay while she was sleeping. Harry carried her halfway down the hall to the room closest to his own luxury master bedroom.
“Why.. do you have so many.. guest rooms?’’ Juliet mumbles, her eyes still tightly sealed.
‘’I don’t know really.. just a big house with more rooms than I needed, plus I have some friends that come to America every now and then and stay over here..’’ Harry says, releasing a laugh.
Juliet doesn’t verbally reply, only smiles to herself.
Her body was flustered at the feeling of Harry’s arms carrying her, the feeling of his shoulder against her face, the warmth of his hands on her back and the back of her legs. She felt complete when she had Harry against her, she felt.. good.
‘’Here we are, love.’’ Harry says as he quickly takes his hand from under Juliet’s legs and turns the knob, returning his hand so she wouldn’t fall.
Juliet opened her eyes and almost had a stroke, she was speechless. She released a deep breath and gawked at the site before her.

‘’Everything okay?’’ Harry asks softly.
‘’It’s.. so.. beautiful. Why… why do you have.. such a.. beautiful room?’’ Juliet asks, her eyes roaming over the décor and the entire room itself.
‘’It was supposed to be my sister’s room for when she comes and stays with me.. but she fell in love with one downstairs.. so this.. is just here.’’ Harry tells her, smiling as he notices her intense stare, eyes wondering slowly over every detail in the room, room the window curtains to the chandelier.
‘’And now.. it’s yours. Beautiful room for a beautiful girl.’’ Harry says as he carries her over to the bed.
Harry reaches the bed and pulls the cover back with one hand, keeping Juliet in the air as he gets the covers ready for her.
‘’No one’s ever slept in here.. so this is now yours.’’ Harry tells her as he lies her down softly, sliding his arm from under her as her body softly hits the mattress.
‘’Harry.. this.. is.. so.. amazing.’’ She says as she leans her head into the extremely soft pillows, they were perfect and fluffy.
Harry pulls the covers over her and tucks them in around her small, fragile body. It wasn’t until he stood over her that he realized how small she was compared to him. In contrast to his body she was very small, short, and fragile, and he loved that so much.
‘’If you need me.. all you have to do is press this little button on the wall and speak into the microphone, the intercom will speak throughout the house though, but I will hear it, and if I don’t then just come get me, I’m right next door, step into the hall and take a left, first door you come to.’’ Harry tells her as he points to the button on the wall.
Juliet nods as Harry leans down to her, his hands pressed into the mattress as he stares into her beautiful baby blue eyes.
‘’You can wake me up for any reason.. and sleep as late as you want.. I’ll make you some breakfast and have you some fresh clothes to put on in the morning.. But you can sleep as long as you need to. I’m right next door if you need anything.’’ Harry whispers softly to her as he leans down to her forehead.
She bites the inside of her cheek, trying to control the tingling feeling on her skin as Harry’s lips touch her, pressing down hard to leave a sweet goodnight kiss on her forehead.
‘’Good night, love.. sleep tight.’’ Harry mumbles as he leans up and turns towards the door.
Juliet didn’t say anything, mainly because she couldn’t form any words at the moment, she was entirely too caught up in the moment to do or say a word.
