Moments: Chapter 3

I woke up the next morning feeling happy. If you're asking what I answered Harry, well I said yes. I'm telling you, the look on his face was full of joy. I couldn't help but smile at him. We shared a hug before I went home with Shai. Speaking of, right after we left the arena she looked really happy. I just thought it was because of meeting them. Of course, I was happy too but it wasn't that comparable to the look on her face. There was something she wasn't telling me. I know it.

After I finished eating breakfast, I heard my phone go off. Some unknown number was calling me. I slowly pressed the 'answer' button and heard a familiar voice. 

"Hello?" I began.

"Martina?" it was Harry.

"Harry? How did you get my number?"

"Well, your friend last night gave the lads her number and your number. I hope you don't mind."

"Oh, no. It's fine. I was just shocked, that's all." I heard him sigh in relief.

"So, why did you call?" I continued.

"Oh, right. Uhm, I just wanted to tell you that a dress will be delivered there in a couple of minutes and I wanted you to wear it." 

"What? Harry you didn't have too, I have my own money to buy my own." I said, but not in a harsh manner.

"Trust me in this, please." 

"Okay, I trust you." 

"Thank you. I need to go now. See you later."

"Alright, bye."

"Bye."

We both hang up on the same time and I directly went to take a shower. 

It didn't take too long when I heard a knock on the door. I quickly found my robe and put it on before walking down the stairs and opening the door.

"Ms. Carter?" the guy asked. He was holding two rectangular boxes, one was small, and the other one was big. "Yes." he handed me the boxes and said, "That's all ma'am. Thank you." I nodded and said "Bye." 
I placed both boxes on my neatly fixed bed while crossing my arms over my chest. It didn't  take long for me to decide. I opened the box revealing a white halter neck beach dress. It was a little more above the knee, like it came about mid thigh. Plus, it looked too familiar. Instantly, I pulled out my gladiators from the shoe rack behind me. They'd look perfect together.
5:30 pm
I sat on the pink leather couch again, just like what I did when I waited for Shai. The only difference was that I was waiting for Harry this time. My feet were like allergic to my carpet, they wouldn't stop swinging back and forth. I guess I was just nervous. My hair was just natural and so was my make up. By the way, the dress fit me perfectly. The other box contained a necklace with a heart shape, and I thought of wearing it too.
A knock on the door suddenly came. 
"Hello, love." he greeted.
"Hi, Harry." I smiled. 
"You look beautiful." his voice almost came out as a whisper but I heard it. I looked down and blushed.
"Thanks, you don't look bad yourself." I said as I faced him again.
"You ready to go?" he asked me. I nodded my head. I locked the door before closing it behind me. Harry reached his hand out for me and I gladly took it.
"Harry where are we going?" I chuckled. He had me blindfolded inside his car. 
"It's a surprise." I felt his hand brush against mine. It sent shivers down my spine. Was I feeling something for Harry? 
My thoughts were broken when I felt the car hit a stop. "We're here." he got out of the car then ran to my side. I knew that because he opened the door for me, duh. I felt the wind hit my face smoothly. I heard waves crashing so I guessed he brought  me to a beach, which it really was. He removed the blindfold but then replaced it with his hands. "Just listen to me. I'll tell you which direction you should go." he whispered in my ear. I felt his breath tickle me softly but of course I kept to myself. I nodded and we began walking.
"You ready?" he asked.
"Yup." I chirped. He let his hands fall to his sides as my vision began from blurry to a clear view. There in front of me stood a white canopy tent, with a table for two underneath. The table was placed at the center and it was surrounded by rose petals. A candle was lit right at the middle of the table. The canopy was decorated with colorful lights. Everything looked perfect.
Yet, everything looked familiar.

Moments: Chapter 2

 "Uhm, the guy outside told me we were wanted." I started.  "Right, uhh...well..." Louis stuttered. Why was he stuttering? Well that's a first. "So?" I asked.  
 The room fell silent for a couple of minutes. "Guys, if you're not gonna say anything then we're leaving." I told them and stood up. Shai remained on her seat looking at me like I was stupid. "Are you coming or what?" I asked her. She stood up from the couch and went over to the boys. She was whispering something to them. 
 Harry's P.O.V 
 Shai walked over to us. Of course I know her name. She was Martina's best friend after all.  
 "Are you really gonna stay silent? She's here already! Do what you gotta do guys!" she whispered to us. "We don't know if we can. You know it's not that easy, babe." Louis spoke. "Oh, so you're gonna let her leave you guys when you finally get the chance? Seriously!" she was getting frustrated. We knew she cared for Martina, they were practically sisters. "I'm on it." I gave in. I asked for her anyway, why not give her a good reason? I stood up from the couch and left the boys, and Shai dumbfounded.  
 I walked over to Martina, my stomach was churning with every step I took. "Hey." was all that escaped my mouth. (Nice job Harry) I thought to myself. "Hi, I'm Martina." she smiled sweetly and stuck her hand out, probably for me to shake so I did. "I know." I said quickly, not even realizing what I just said. "What?" she asked confusingly. "Oh, uh- uhm your friend over there," I pointed to Shai, who already knew what was about to happen, "told me your name and of course, hers." "Oh." she just shrugged it off. Well at least I saved myself from that.  
 "Would you mind if we talk outside for a while?" I questioned. "No. C'mon then" she responded with a small smile. 
 The boys winked at me as Shai gave me a thumbs up, I just grinned at them and shook my head at their craziness. I guided Martina on our way out and placed my arm around her waist while we walked through the small space.  
 We found ourselves seating on the edge of the stage, just having a small talk, and we would casually laugh at some jokes one would say.  
 Martina's P.O.V 
 Talking to Harry was really fun. At first I thought it would be awkward but then we just clicked. It felt like we knew each other for a very long time, like we were made to be for each other but I knew it wasn't possible. He was Harry Styles, and I'm just Martina Carter. Looking at Harry, he made me feel protected and secure, he made feel like I wasn't alone. But why? Why do I have feelings like that? I know I said I've always admired him but something was telling me there was something more that was to be admired inside him.  
 Suddenly I heard him singing a song, but it wasn't just some song, it was a song that made flashes rapidly, and repeatedly appear in my head.  "Isn't she lovely, isn't she wonderful..." his angelic voice sang. A tear escaped my left eye. I quickly wiped it off and stood up then brushed myself a bit. "Are you okay?" he asked, his eyes were full of hurt, sorrow, and confusion. Why?  "I-I'm sorry. I need to go." He immediately repeated my action and asked again, "Okay, but can I ask you something before you go?" "Of course." I looked him in the eyes.  
 "Will you go out with me tomorrow?" his voice filled with hope. What am I suppose to say?  

Moments: Chapter 1

 I impatiently waited for my best friend Shaira, whom I prefer to call Shai, in my living room. I was seated on my pink leather couch wearing my black high waisted shorts, a blue striped top, and some flats. My hair was curled right at the bottom, and my make up was just average.  
 I checked the time, 5:45 pm. The concert would start at 7 but me and Shai agreed on going to the arena at 6. Wondering what's going on? 3 words, ONE DIRECTION CONCERT. We were going to the concert tonight plus we got front row tickets. I've always admired Harry Styles among the 5 lads. He just has those green eyes and perfect smile-including the dimples- that could make any girl's heart melt.   
 My daze was suddenly interrupted by a knock on the door. I got up and went to open it and the next thing I knew, Shai was there, wearing a 3/4 length long-sleeved top, tucked in her jean shorts, paired with red vans. Her hair was kept natural and her make up was just the same as mine. "Ready to go?" she asked. "Yup." I smiled and we both went in her car. I turned on the radio after buckling up. Shai started the engine and off we went to the arena.  
 -At the arena- 
 We both hopped off the car, and walked straight ahead. A lady wearing a black shirt took steps toward us and asked for our tickets. We handed both tickets to her and she examined them. "Right this way ladies." she smiled. Right then, I knew she was an usher. She lead us to our seats and we both thanked her before she waved us off.  
 There were only 5 more minutes left then the show will start. I was really excited to see them but something inside me made me feel that something will happen tonight. I knew it wasn't just going to be a concert and I knew it would be something better.  
 Screaming filled my ears when I heard the familiar tune of 'Na Na Na.' The boys went on stage which made the whole crowd scream even louder, including me, and Shai. 
 On one point during the concert, they sang 'Moments.' Liam sang his part and when it came to Harry, I watched him move swiftly to the spot where Liam was before and he began "If we could only have this life for one more day." his eyes searched through the crowd and he saw me. His eyes grew wide, at the same time he sang, "If we could only turn back time."  
 They started to sing the chorus,harmonizing perfectly. It was really a touching song but my mind was stuck at one thought but millions of nonsense questions, "Why did Harry's yes grow wide when he saw me? Was there a spider on my hair? Did I have something on my face? Oh God, did someone put a sign above my head that said something really bad?" I wanted to run out at that moment but I just couldn't. One, because I was on the front row. Two, because Shai won't allow me. Three, because my mind and heart were telling me not too. For once, they agreed on the same thing. 
 The boys performed the rest of their songs and ever since they've gone backstage and returned, I would see them looking at me each time. What was going on? 
 When the concert ended, we thought it would be better if we'd leave when it's not that crowded anymore so we could get to the car safely. "OMG! I swear I saw all of them looking at you!" Shai squealed. "What?" I laughed nervously. Something wasn't right and I was dying to find out what it was. 
 The crowd began to sink 'till there were only 10 of us fans left. I was about to walk with Shai but a voice stopped me. "Excuse me, are you Martina?" I turned around and faced a guy who looked buff. I bet he was some sort of security for the boys. But why did he want me? And how did he know my name? "Uhm, y-yes." "Please come with me." he told me. "Can I bring my friend too?" I asked. "Of course." he nodded his head before guiding both me and Shai to some sort hallway behind the stage. "May I ask what we're doing here?" I questioned the guy. "You're wanted." "By who?" By this time we were standing right in front of a door which said 'Dressing Room' "Miss, you ask a lot. To answer your last question, you'll find out once you open this door." he said before leaving me and an excited(?) Shai.  
 I knocked on the door and not long after, it opened. I wanted to scream and jump around when I saw who opened it but I couldn't. I stood there, completely frozen, looking stupid in front of the one and only Louis Tomlinson. Shai on the other hand let out a shriek when she saw Louis and ran to give him a hug. He hugged her back and when he pulled back, he smiled at me. I was still taken aback of what's actually happening that I didn't realize I was already being carried over Louis' shoulder and entered the room. He sat me down on a couch, which I shared with Shai, and was across from them. By them I meant the lads.  
"Hey girls." Louis smiled. 
"What's up babes?" Niall laughed. 
"Vas happenin?!" Zayn greeted. 
"Hello." Liam said. 
Harry didn't say anything, his eyes were glued to mine.
