《The Boxer {h.s.}》Chapter Eleven
Advertisement
Harry and my date is in a few hours. I feel like I'm going to throw up in happiness. Like if I were to vomit it would be rainbows.
My phone buzzes on the kitchen counter. A huge grin spreads across my face seeing that it is Harry that texted me.
A cheek hurting smile appears on my face. God he is amazing. I run to my room to start getting ready. After I wash and shave my body I wrap a fluffy white towel around my hair and body moving to my closet.
It takes me thirty minutes to pick out a red dress and black heels. So simple but so difficult. I lay my outfit out on my bed before quickly blow drying my hair and curling it. Then I apply my make up and decide to be a little bold and apply bright red lip stick. I finish and put my outfit. Looking in the mirror and spinning a little. I actually look pretty.
A ringing at the door makes me smile. I glance at the clock, right on time. My heels click against the floor. My stomach hurts from this anxiety. Do I look okay? Is this to much? I shouldn't of put the lipstick on. I slowly open the door. Harry is standing with a single red rose. He is adorn in black pants, grey sweater type shirt, and a black blazer. He looks beautiful. (Outfits in the picture)
His eyes scan every inch of my body making me feel a bit insecure.
"You look... just wow." Harry seems a little speechless. I smile a little at the fact that I have that effect on him.
"Beautiful" he breathes.
"Thank you. You look rather dashing yourself." My cheeks burn as he hands me the Rose.
"Thanks" I mumble smelling it. I quickly turn around and add it to the case holding the first rose Harry got me.

"Ready?" He smiles. I nod grabbing a black light black jacket. I don't zip it up because that would look weird with my dress. Harry links his hand with mine leading me to his large vehicle.
"So where are we going?" I ask as he drives away from my apartment.
"I have this charity event for work first then afterwards I have a surprise for you." He smiles over at me, taking his eyes off the road for a second.
"Oh" I put my seatbelt on getting comfortable. Charity event? How many people are going to be there? Why did he invite me? How is he going to introduce me tonight?
"Shit. We don't have to go if you don't want. I should of asked if you were okay with it first." His hands tighten around the steering wheel getting Agra with himself. I reach my hand over to his leg resting it there. Harry looks over at me confused by my actions.
"It's fine. I'm just a bit surprised that's all." He lets out a sigh of relief.
"Why are you surprised?" He approaches a stop sign and looks over at me.
"I don't know. It's just- like all the people you work with will be there and stuff" Wow I'm a loser.
"What do you mean? Do you think I don't want them to meet you?"
"No! I mean I don't know. Just im sorry." I ramble slightly leaning my head against the window.
"Well if you think I'm embarrassed by you or something you are wrong. I'm actually quite excited to show you off" Should I be flattered or insulted?
"Thanks I think?" I mumble. Harry chuckles pulling into a large parking lot with lots of fancy cars. Harry opens my door for me before slipping his hand into mine.
We walk into the venue without a word. Once we enter all I see is men in nice suits and woman in fancy dresses. I feel undered dressed right now. Looking down at my outfit I silently scold myself for not picking something more extravagant.

"You look absolutely stunning" Harry notice my sour face and whispers to me.
"Harry can we get a few pictures of you" A few men with cameras walk up to him. I mumble an 'oh' and immediately disconnect our hands walking out of the shot. Harry pulls me back in putting his hand around my waist securely.
"Just smile babe" He looks down at me kissing my cheek. The men start taking pictures when Harry kisses my cheek. I smile and Harry does too. This is weird. I don't know where to look and these lights are blinding me. They finally finish and I'm seeing dots for a few minutes.
Harry leads us over to a table. I see a familiar face from the gym, the blonde guy. Louis is also seated there. Louis next to a brunette.
"Ava! "Louis jumps up wrapping his arms around me. I smile returning the hug just as warmly.
"Hi Louis!" He pulls me to shoulder length taking in my appearance.
"You look lovely." He smiles. His blue eyes are incredibly bright.
"Thank you very much" He gives harry a bro hug thing before sitting next to the brown haired girl again.
"Guys this Ava. Ava this is Niall, Liam, Sophia, Louis which you know, Eleanor, Zayn and Perrie." He points to each of them. I give a polite wave and smile. Harry leads me over to our two seats. I sit down crossing my legs under the table and shrug my jacket off. I'm sitting next to sophia and Harry Is next to Louis.
They serve us wine and salad for the first course. I'm trying to drink as little as possible. I'm a major light weight.
"So Ava what do you do?" Sophia ask. Everybody has broken into their own conversations.
"Like career wise. I work at Danny Publishing. I'm an editor there, but I work from home. I also take shifts at my dads diner." She smiles taking a sip from her wine. I notice a large diamond ring on her ring finger. She's engaged or married.
"That's awesome! Are you in school still?"
"Yes I am attending Cambridge" I smile nodding. She is the midst of drinking and spits it back in her glass drawing everyone's attention.
"Cambridge?! Like the smart college nobody can get into unless you are loaded or a genius?" She sets her glass back down. Everyone at the table is staring at us now. I'm so embarrassed.
"Uh yeah. I guess" I look over at Harry. He puts a calming hand on my thiegh.
"That's so cool! So which is it? Genius or rich?" She asks giggling.
"Well I have a full scholarship so " I chuckle nervously. My hands in my lap become very interesting all the sudden.
"Jesus Christ! I don't believe you! I mean if you were a genius I don't think you would be here with Harry" she giggles. I can't help my laugh along with her. Harry pouts shaking his head.
"Teasing" I lean over and whisper.
"So what's your family like?" Liam I think his name is ask.
"Um They are great I guess. I have a sister and a mom and two dads plus my niece also" He smiles nodding.
"What's your nieces name?" He makes conversation with me.
"Rose, she's so amazing." I smile thinking about my little chubby girl. Liam nods returning back to his salad.
"So are you guys dating?"
