"I won't be long, I just need to try and find a gift for Y/B/F/N." You told Harry as you both entered the shop.
You had left your house and were currently shopping for a birthday present for your best friend with Harry, trying to be quick as a few paparazzi had spotted you both.
"It's alright babe, take your time, were not in a rush," he smiled.
"If we don't hurry up and buy something we will end up stuck in this shop." You warned him, knowing it had happened before.
"I know that, but that's alright as long as I'm with you." He smiled, cheekily and you shook your head at him, laughing.
"Why don't you get something for yourself while your here?" Harry suggested.
"I've come shopping for Y/B/F/N not for myself, besides I feel rushed with them outside," you said, referring to the now growing amount of paparazzi who had gathered outside of the shop.
"Well it looks like we could be here for a while, so shop for whatever you want, I don't mind." He continued and you sighed.
You looked through the amount of stuff the shop had, trying to find something nice when you noticed Harry was no longer stood next to you.
You looked around, not seeing him anywhere when you suddenly heard a "I'm back," from behind you.
You turned around to see Harry with a cheeky smile on his face, a few shirts and other accessories in his hands.
"I went to the men's section, they have some great stuff here." He commented.
"Harry, were not supposed to be shopping for ourselves," you laughed.
"I know that, but we might as well make good use of the time we have here," he said, walking off again only to come back with some more clothes.
"I thought you might like these," he said handing you some which were surprisingly nice.
After finding a gift for your friend, you placed it onto the counter along with a ton of clothes Harry had picked up -which you hadn't even noticed he had- before paying and leaving.
As soon as you left the shop, the paparazzi were asking questions, along with the screams of fans, which Harry kindly waved and said hello to them.
"Y/N, did Harry just buy all of your clothes?" A paparazzi asked.
"Did you ask him to buy you some new clothes?" Another one shouted.
"Hey, she didn't ask for me to buy her any clothes, she insisted to pay for herself. Don't judge her until you know her," Harry shouted back, taking you slightly aback at his tone of voice.
He gently took a hold of your hand and helped you through the small crowd as you both managed to get back to Harry's car to go home.
"You didn't have to say that, you could've ignored him." You said as soon as you were both in the car.
"Questions like that shouldn't be ignored, he shouldn't have said that, he doesn't even know you." He stated, angrily as he gripped the steering wheel tightly before setting off to go back home.
"I know and I'm grateful, but it is his job to ask those questions," you said.
You were grateful that he had stopped to defend you because it was really kind of him to do that when you genuinely wouldn't do that to him and someone was implying that you would, but you didn't want him to be portrayed as a bad influence for shouting at a paparazzi.
"Why are you defending him?" Harry asked, calmly.
"I just don't want this to be all over the newspapers by tomorrow and for you to be seen in a bad light." You admitted.
"I was defending you, I'm sure most people won't see it like that even if it's written like that. I'm used to these things being put in newspapers and magazines by now and you don't have to worry about me." Harry sighed, taking a hold of your hand and squeezing it reassuringly.
"I know, but I can't help it sometimes," you said.
"Let's just forget about it now, yeah? I know you wouldn't use me for my money or the fame and you know it too, that's all that really matters is that we trust each other." He said, looking at you with a smile while you were stopped at traffic lights and you nodded.
"I love you and I want you to know that I wouldn't do that to you, ever." You said, genuinely.
"I know that and I love you too, more than you think." He sighed, squeezing your hand gently.
You arrived home and he turned to look at you before you got out with a smile.
"I will defend you because I love you and there's nothing you can do about that." He smirked, leaning in to kiss you gently.
You smiled, knowing that you had the best relationship you could have ever wanted to have.
