It's August, it's hot, it's sticky and you're currently working at a cinema. They've scheduled you to work during a charity event. You weren't best pleased as it was meant to be your day off and you were meant to go day drinking with your best friends, but the plus side is you have the world's best Air conditioning to keep you cool throughout your shift today.

It's 9 am, you're refilling the popcorn ready for today, Your boss is ordering round the other member of staff. apparently, someone incredibly famous is arriving today and he wants the place to be in tip-top condition.
Your boss comes out with a huge stack of specially branded popcorn buckets
"replace ours with these," he says,
"are you serious? this charity has its own popcorn buckets?" you ask with a laugh as your boss walks away "More money than sense" you say as you start to change the buckets,
"That's what happens when the founder of the charity is a rich 24-year-old celebrity," a voice says, you look up to find a tall skinny ginger headed boy, messing about with a camera and a tripod,
"Great, that means we'll have screaming teenagers here as well as a snobby celebrity family" you scoff as you finish the buckets and stand up. The boy laughs and sticks his hand out to shake yours
"Hi, I'm Harry... a Member of the snobby celebrity family," he says with a smirk, your jaw drops open as you regret everything you've said in the last 15 minutes.
"fuuucccckkkk, I am so sorry," you say shaking his hand, you can feel your face burning with embarrassment,
"No, seriously it's fine, it's nice to know not everyone is willing to kiss the ground we walk on," Harry says with a smile
"Can we keep that between ourselves, if my boss finds out I called you a snob I might actually lose my job" you say with a little laugh
"Yeah, of course, it can be our little secret," he says as he licks his lips looking you up and down, the words 'Our little secret' stay in your mind, you definitely want to make more little secrets with him but you know this isn't the time or place to make that plan.

The event goes well. The charity is currently having group photos taken by your boss. you're cleaning down the sides, you look up and over at the group. Your eyes instantly fall on Harry who is already looking at you with a little smile, his smile turns into a smirk when he realizes you're looking at him.

You stay behind to clear up once everything's finished, Harry is packing up his camera equipment whilst you mop the floors. It's just you two in the theatre, everyone else is out talking and drinking tea out the front. The silence is incredibly awkward so you put some music on the speakers. You hear Harry humming along to song, this makes you smile.

After mopping the floors you wipe down the sides. Harry leans against the side and chats to you asking you all sort of questions about working here.
"So do you get many holiday days?" He asks you, you shake your head
"Nope, but I did get a Free ice cream cake for working on my 21st Birthday.. a day off would have been more exciting & more appreciated" you say with a laugh
"You're 21?" He asks
"Yeah, turned 21 last week" you say with a little frown
"Oh, erm.. I just thought you were younger" he says as he rubs the back of his neck "that makes my next question less weird" he chuckles
"Yeah? What's the next question?.. oh and by the way you're going to have to answer all your own questions because I'm just as nosey" you say with a smile
"Im fine with that, I was going to ask if you wanted to come out for a drink tonight.. we're celebrating today & I'm the only one without a date and I have to say you're beautiful and I'd hate to leave here without getting your number" Harry says, hearing him call you beautiful made you blush. You nod
"I'd love to, gives you an opportunity to answer all the questions you just asked me" you say with a small smile, you grab a pen off the side and take Harrys arm, you write your mobile number down on his arm
"I've got to clear the screens, but call Me? I finish here at 7pm" you say before walking off with a wink.
As you walk away you can hear Harry cheering quietly to himself and doing a little happy dance as he punches the sky, you laugh softly and shake your head walking into your first screen to clean.
