H: Soooo.. your mother invited me to dinner at your house?

H: Interesting. 

Me: I know.

Me: I was a bit surprised myself as well. 

H: What time do I have to be there?

Me: Around 6 would be cool.

H: Alright, lovely.

H: Can I call you for a second?

Me: Sure.

*H♥ is calling you* 

"Hi," I say as soon as I press the green button, "What's up?"

"Hi," Harry sighs, "and I don't know."

"Oh." I reply, "What's on your mind then?"

"It's just that I have mized feelings about this dinner. It could either go completely wrong or completely right."

"I know, I'm nervous."

"I'm bloody scared. I've had dinner with you and your parents so many times before and this time it's for so many different reasons."

"Harry-"

"You don't have to do this if you don't want to, you know. I'd understand that fully." he cuts me off.

"Why would I not want to do this?"

"Because it's me."

"That's not a valid reason." I argue.

"It is, though. I wouldn't want me either."

"Don't say this negative stuff about yourself. You're great." I complement him.

"Yeah, that sounded incredibly believable."

"You are, though. You're Harry."

He chuckles, "Thanks for reminding me what my name is. I appreciate it."

My mother comes inside my room, "Lucy, breakfast's ready."

"I'll be right down." I reply.

I hear Harry sigh.

"Who are you talking to?" my mum asks me.

"I'm talking to Harry."

"Ohh. Tell him to be here at 6."

"I already did."

Mum nods uncomfortably, "Breakfast's ready."

"I'll be down in a minute, just let me finish my call first."

She nods and closes the door behind her as she leaves.

"Well, I guess I'll see you tonight at 6 then." Harry chuckles.

"You will. Dress nice, please?"

"Have I ever not?"

"No.."

"Then there's your answer."

I roll my eyes, "Bye, idiot."

"Bye, sunshine."
