Name: Lilian Greene Nicknames: Lulu, Lillit, Lil (family) Faceclaim: Ashley Moore Age: 26 Birthday: july 24th Religion: Baptist Born: Queens, NYC, NY Current Residence :  studying at the Academy of Fine Arts in Munich Occupation:  artist Ethnicity:  african american Nationality: american Languages:  german, polish, english

FAMILY

Father: Franklin Douglas Greene Mother: Eleanor Frida Greene nee Thomas Companion: Benny, a black standard poodle.

PHYSICAL

Body: 5'6" (170 cm). Lulu has always been distinctive looking, be that her curly hair that falls around her shoulders, or her pear shaped body of a medium tone that every summer is covered in freckles like long forgotten stars.  a proud owner of a ‘ who needs tits with an ass like this ‘ tshirt, she is fairly curvaceous with surprisingly muscular tone. a lover of exploring she is a prolific walker, finding no trouble putting several miles behind her every day. this has given her a firm core with graceful features, built arms in contrast to her long fingers, and muscular thighs used to rigorous exercise. Face: a diamond shape with sharp features, the cut of her low cheekbones creates apple cheeks to match full lips when she smiles. a wide nose to match half moon eyes with dark brown eyes which glow to honeyed amber in the light, surrounded with full dark lashes. her cheeks are dusted with freckles which fade to a few spots in the winter but bloom into a dense dust in the summer. never able to master make up without outside help Lulu has instead concentrated on skin care giving her an all natural dewey tone which she accents with lipstick & mascara.  her prominent brows, left thick in contrast to the fashion of her teenage years, add to her expressive features, Lulu’s face always busy with some errant thought or another, which brightens the most when she smiles revealing the gap between her front teeth. Hair:  Lulu’s hair is her point of pride. left in it’s natural texture, she has refused to ever straighten it, creating a beautifully full curl which nearly dwarfs her body. almost midback in length she keeps it in a heavy left part which covers nearly a third of her face, only revealed when she ties it back to work on her latest creation.  a lover of the outdoors this has streaked her dark brown hair with sunkissed highlights of a shocking coppery red, creating a sunny halo which bounces around her as she walks. Wardrobe: being blind has never stopped Lulu from exploring her wardrobe, often switching up styles day by day to whatever she is feeling. unafraid to mix patterns, textures, and colors freely. while working she’ll often keep to a standard baggy tee & leggings, when going out she prefers to mix it up, swapping between crop tops with jeans, to body con dresses, or looser tunics with skirts depending on what she’s feeling for the day. however no matter what she is wearing you’ll see it paired with sneakers as Lulu prefers comfort to keep up with her fast paced lifestyle. this has become such a signature that her one set of fancier footwear is a pair of sneaker heels, the chunky platforms a favorite for going dancing with friends.

HISTORY

Lulu was always going to be special. the only child of a surgeon & psychologist, her parents had fought hard to make sure their daughter would get the best there was to get. But the pregnancy was hard, and when a birth complication took their daughter’s sight from her the Greenes were forced to contend with the looks of pity from their friends, the apologies of their neighbors, and the worried stares of their families. The newly wed parents ( as they had put off marriage while pursuing their doctorates ) quickly learned that if left to it’s own devices the world would happily abandon their daughter to a life of few opportunities, both expecting her to be able to handle everything alone & treating her as helpless for everything she could not change.

Incensed by the friends who asked if they wanted to try again for a ‘normal’ child, and the public services that provided so little for their daughter, both her parents cut back their careers to give her what the world refused to, turning down advancements & personal desires to focus instead on her upbringing. She was lucky, the careers of her parents allowing them to largely choose their own schedules. They brought in vocational tutors, reached out to the Federation for the Blind, and made contacts with blind adults to ensure their daughter would have both opportunity & community.

Taught the skills to live independently, combined with a homeschool education that kept her from being placed in ‘special education’ her parents began making several trips throughout the city with their daughter, learning with her how to adjust to a world that ignored people with her needs, forced to find adaptations to the gaps no one around them wanted to fix. But where this might have been a frustration, through their connections through blind advocacy organizations they instead found a wealth of information to rely on, and it was this that led Lulu to find art.

Through a seeing museum program Lulu from an early age got to touch hundreds of pieces, letting her hands trace sculptures through thinset gloves, to feel the marks of the chisel, the texture of the paint, the beads of embroidery in clothes. Her first time coming home from the seeing history exhibit she begged her parents for clay, hungry to learn with her hands what she’d felt in the museum. what started as a passing fancy became an obsession, their home quickly filling with art projects as she went from clay, to wood, to stone. Eventually Franklin decided she needed a tutor, which led to an art program, to a scholarship, to an art show at 16. Refusing to allow her to be known as the ‘blind artist’ her parents helped Lulu show her work under a pseudonym, Lilith Greer, to a large amount of acclaim. The lack of pigment used in her works created a natural rawness to the work, only embellished with occasional metallic or fabric additions to play with the light as it shined through.

Eventually she was given the offer to go abroad, with a degree in art history beneath her belt already she was happy to pursue her masters internationally. So with her trusty seeing eye dog Benny at her side, and lots of tearful goodbyes, she left the States to travel out on her own, her first real taste of independence & of a world so much bigger than she ever knew.

Hi hi! I love your writing!!! Thank you for the prompt!

(I’m a sucker for domestic Kastle, hope you are too!)

9. “You’re in love with her.” [ao3]

--

It’s been nearly a year since anyone has recognized Frank Castle in public and he’s gotten pretty lax about it. Not completely, of course. He’s never been a man who relaxes or startles easily; his military background commands otherwise. In fact, most days he can still scan a room and determine the threat level between one blink and the next, but now he finds he doesn’t have to. It’s been a year and a half since he was pardoned and given his new identity. He wears a beard again. He’s let his hair grow out into the thick curls his mother always used to love before he buzzed it all off. His wardrobe consists of flannels and sweaters, and his combat boots have retired to the back of his closet. For all intents and purposes, Frank Castle is gone and Pete Castiglione has taken his place. 

And what a place it is, he thinks. A couple feet away in her blue jeans and NYC shirt Karen is bent over, searching through the grocery store clearance bins. Like always, as soon as he lays eyes on her his entire body lights up. They’ve been casually dating for a few months now and every day feels like stolen time; the universe has never been so kind as to grant him a good thing for as long as he likes. But stolen time or not, he’s taking every moment of it. He spends the majority of his free time with her now, and she seems more than happy to accommodate his clinginess--which brings him to now, at a small grocery on the opposite side of town, watching as Karen stocks up for the week. 

You have to go early Saturday morning, she’d coached him on the way over. They mark everything down Friday nights, and then just throw it all in clearance tubs. That’s where half my spices come from. 

So here he is, forearms braced on their shopping cart as she digs through layers of marked down crap with the single minded focus that he’s come to associate with her. Her hair is in a long plait down her back and while he watches she holds up a large canister of coffee, throwing him a cheerful look before diving back in. Frank grins back at her, but she’s already elbow deep in the bins before she sees. He learned fairly quickly to stay out of the way and let her do her thing. 

“You’re in love with her.”

The voice comes from his elbow, and a sharp glance over and down reveals a tiny older woman, no taller than his sternum. She’s got a full head of thick silver hair that curls in bouncy ringlets. Glasses eclipse the whole of her face; she’s dressed warmly for the time of year (Frank himself in just a tshirt and jeans) and her wrinkled face is peering up at him in both amusement and exasperation. 

“Pardon me, ma’am?” he questions, baffled. 

“That woman there. You’re in love with her. Right?”

He’s not proud of it, but Frank glances back at Karen with a panicked expression before he can stop himself. However, she’s elbow deep in a clearance batch of vitamins and isn’t listening. He looks back at the woman, relieved. It’s a big declaration and not one he takes lightly. The last thing he wants is for someone else to tell her.

“Yes ma’am,” he says carefully. 

The woman turns to fix him with another amused look. “Does she know that?” 

This conversation is rapidly veering towards too personal. He tenses. “No, she doesn’t.” 

She sighs. “Thought so. Young man, would you be willing to walk an old woman around a grocery store?”

In no universe can Frank turn down an old woman, nosy or otherwise. He takes the basket from her arm, glances back at Karen, and then takes a turn with the woman. She’s funny, once she’s done dissecting his love life. Smart as a tack, too, and commanding of respect. She hobbles around on her cane and points at objects for Frank to fill the basket with, and then once they’ve cashed out and he’s loaded her trunk, she turns to him. 

“Tell her you love her,” she says without preamble just as Frank is trying to figure out how to say goodbye to someone he wasn’t planning on meeting. “When I was a young woman I let someone think I didn’t, and I’ve regretted it ever since. When you get to be my age, you ruminate--and I’ve done my fair share. I would hate to see a young couple miss out on that. Don’t let your pride or your past get in the way of something good.” 

He helps her into her vehicle, stooping down to nod at her. “I’ll keep that in mind, ma’am. Thank you.”

“No, thank you, Mr. Castle.” She laughs at his shuttered, shocked expression. Frank scrambles for something to say for the hundredth time in the last twenty minutes, but the words fail him. She doesn’t seem to mind. The wrinkles around her eyes jumble up with her smile. “I think after what you have done for this city, it is your turn to find some happiness. I read all about what happened to you, and it’s a damn shame. Now go, I’m sure that woman is looking for you. Best not keep her waiting any longer.”

Frank nods, too speechless to speak, and then stands for a long moment watching her drive away. It’s not until her car has disappeared from view that he realizes he never got her name, and now he’s likely to never see her again. The thought gives him an odd pang, prompting him to turn and reenter the store. It takes a moment to find Karen, and when he does she’s amongst the wine bottles. 

“Oh there you are,” she says absently, peering at the shelves. “I’m thinking lasagna for dinner. How does a Merlot sound?” 

The words have barely left her mouth before he’s claimed her lips, right there in the middle of the store. He wraps her up in his arms, pours all of the love and admiration that he can into the kiss. He’s strangely emotional from his interaction with the woman and even more so at the idea that he could let Karen go on any longer without knowing how he really feels. When he finally pulls away, Frank cradles her face in his hands and stares into her confused gaze. 

“I love you,” he rasps, not the least bit concerned about who hears or sees what’s happening in aisle six. Right now it’s just him and Karen and she’s beaming at him, clutching at his wrists. 

“I know, honey. I love you too--so much that I’m not going to question where you went or why you’re telling me now.” She laughs, still flushed pink from the kiss. “Now, Merlot or Cab? I’m not letting you drink Rose with lasagna.”

 Frank chuckles. “Whatever you pick is fine.”

She ends up going with the Merlot, but when she slips a Rose into the basket when she thinks he’s not looking, Frank can only smile and take her hand. 

He’ll keep stealing time with her, as long as she lets him.

Style Q&As from the old SkinsLife website

Hi guys! In my search to find the striped hoodie Cassie wears at the end of her series 1 episode, I found the old SkinsLife website, where Edward Gibbon (the costume designer) did his Q&As before they moved over to the e4 website.  Unfortunately, not all of it has been archived, but there’s a lot of good stuff about where the series 2 costumes come from, and a ton of questions about Cassie’s clothes.

Here’s what I could find.  I’ll put all of the Cassie questions at the top and then all of the other ones under a cut:

-------------------------------

Hellie Cory: Can you please tell me where they got Cassie's skirt?? I absolutely love it and I've been searching for ages with no luck : (

Edward: Cassie's skirt is from a small Japanese designer in Camden (and well spotted Olivia xx the fabric is from Ikea.)

-------------------------------

TanitaAlethia: Im so happy about this. I have always wanted a nice, not sexy (like in costumes shops, there gross) little sailor outfit. When Cassi had one on, i almost fell of my chair, i love love LOVE it. So i was wondering, where an earth did you fined it? Thankyou =] Tanita-Alethia

Edward: Cassie's sailor top was from New York, but you can always try an Army Surplus store or maybe Camden if you're anywhere near London. Let me know how you get on!

------------------------------- evil_daisys: hey, i wasnt sure where to put this,, but were did you find the dress cassie wore in episode 1 of season one at the party? and episode 2 of season one she wore at michelles? i love the way she dresses its so cute and girly and still slightly different =)

Edward: Both of Cassies dresses were vintage pieces from the 60s and 50s respectively - keep your eye out wherever you are and never turn down an invite to a jumble sale ! -------------------------------

AmyyB: hi edward, can you please tell me where cassies pink chiffon top and grey socks that she wears in chris' episode? thanks sweetheart keep up the good work x

Edward: cassies' chiffon top was from Top Shop and the socks are from H&M.; --------------------------------------

maxine: heya, i was just wondering where cassie's bow t-shirt is from, from the latest advert? ♥x

Edward: cassie's bow t-shirt was from TopShop ------------------------------------------------

Franchesca Allen: Hi im really into weird and unusual style and i love cassie's. I was wondering if you could tell me where you get most of her clothes. And i was wondering in series 2 effy's episode whats she wearing with the leopard skin tights, what top is it? Please reply i've wrote before and got no reply :) Thanks and keep up the amazing brainstorms with the costumes xx

Edward: Cassies clothes are from all over the place ! Her style is a mixture of amazing vintage pieces, charity shop finds, vintage designer stuff and high street sale stuff (normally the things no one else wants ! ) The top you are talking about was a vintage nylon 'teddy'(an all in one , shorts and top underwear item ). This year she has been wearing a lot of underwear as outerwear so keep your eyes peeled in charity shops and don't be afraid to rummage through dead peoples' clothes! ------------------------------------------------

rachey_babey: hi can you please tell me where cassies gold high hees are from that she's wearing when she spills the milk and could you please tell me where the dress / nightdress cassie wore when she was sitting on the couch with chris and watching telly is from? i think it was white with a green or blue rim. ta.

Edward: Cassie's gold shoes are character shoes from a dance shop , customised with gold leaf and cassie's nightdress was a plain cream dress from H&M; which we customised with green lace ------------------------------- sarinda: hello, i really love cassie's style, i love going to jumble sales and charity shops looking for vintage finds so its really great that there is someone like that on tv. i was wondering where you got cassie's red skirt and gold shoes when she is at her exam? and also where her bra if from when she is getting dressed before that. thank you xx =]

Edward: Thanks, Sarinda. Cassie's skirt was Prada, shoes from Bertie and bra from M&S...;

------------------------------------------------

Lauren Jones: Hey I was hoping you could please tell me where Casie's night dress with the skeleton on it is from?? I have been looking everywhere and cant even find something similar! I would love to know where I could get one from please x

Edward: Cassie's skeleton dress was from TopShop Unique. It's probably not available any more, I'm afraid, but keep looking - you never know! ------------------------------------------------ Leelee: Helloo! My question is regarding the reaons behind Cassie's rapid change in clothing style in episode 9 when she arrives in NYC. At first I simply assumed it was to make her seem more vagrant looking, as though she was wearing simply what she grabbed in the dash. But then in the last scene of the episode, she is running down the street and is in another compltely out of character outfit, and wondered that would she really have all these clothes that she just never wears? Was there any specific reason as to this change? Thanks!

Edward: By the time we see Cassie in NYC she has been on the road for a while and grabbed clothes wherever she finds them , if they don't seem quite like what she normally wears that's because of what she has been through and the clothes she goes running in are Adams - see clothes tell a story as well ! ------------------------------------------------ asdfghjklxx: hii i was just wondering if you could tell me where cassies boots and jeans were from that she was wearing in the last episode when she arrives in new york, also where is the red and white candy striped skirt that she wears with the bow tshirt in her exam from? thanksss xxx

Edward: The jeans are from Uniqlo and then distressed, the boots from a Charity shop and the skirt by Prada

------------------------------------------------

meli_x: In the latest episode where was cassies t shirt with the bow on from and the socks she was wearing with that outfit (when she was in the exam). also her hairclip with two robins in (i think) and the necklace with the trophy on and her stripy dress from when she met chris' mom thanks :) x

Edward: the t-shirt was from TopShop, socks from Noa Noa and the birds were christmas decorations from a craft shop... ------------------------------------------------

Sara: Hey Edward, any chance you could tell me where Cassie's necklace (the cup/trophy) that she wears throughout ep. 9 is from? Thank you very much, loving your work!

Edward: Cassie's necklace was made from a piece of ribbon and an old badge from a Vintage Fair. It said 'victory' on it, if that helps. ------------------------------------------------

Danni: hey, i was wandering where cassies big blue jacket/coat was from, the one where she first arrives in new york? thankyou :)

Edward: Cassie's jacket was a vintage American College jacket - which was worn by Chris in the last series on the school trip to Russia, adding a nice bit of continuity ! ------------------------------------------------

rachael tallentire: hey 2 thngs i want to know where is cassies skeleton dress/nightie she wears in the last episode and also where is her top she wears for her exam from?

Edward:- both are from TopShop Unique range...

And a few Effy questions as well:

XD oh and where would effy's character typically shop for her rave clothing. Love love love xxx P.s the black and white striped jean things, remember, we want them!! lol

Edward: Effy's jeans were from phunky phish/ Effy loves shopping in unexpected places - other peoples houses / old ladies wardrobes / her gran's charity bag and then she customises with scissors and a blowtorch !

------------------------------------------------

Other costume questions:

Pascha Rix: I really loved the gorgeous white shorts that Michele was wearing once in a club scene when she was dancing up against two other guys. The shorts were tiny, white and with pink sequins on them and they were absolutely gorgeous! Where do you also tend to look for other clothes she wears? Are there particular shops you goto?

Edward: The skirt's from Top shop but you can make your own if you like: hack off a pair of old jeans as high as you dare and then cover randomly with sequins...

------------------------------------------------

Kris Jones: I'd just like to know whether ALL the actors' clothes are chosen by stylists, or do some of them get to wear their own stuff? Do you even choose their pants?

Edward: Pretty much everything they wear is chosen by me - especially their pants and socks; they play an important part in defining their characters.....

Edward: Maxxie's jeans were by Replay ------------------------------------------------ tommy the 2nd: hey edward could you please tell me where to get maxxies great hat from episode 1 series 1. its soooo great!!!

Edward: Maxxie's hat was from H&M; ------------------------------------------------ Maciej: Hello Edward. I have trouble with shoes. I was just wondering if you could give me some advice. I like Maxxie's style, but I still don't know what should I pick. The clothes I mostly wear are from American Eagle (ae.com), no ripped jeans though. I don't think ripped jeans look nice. I also don't wear baggy jeans. I'm 6'2" and kind of skinny (pant size: 30x34 or 31x34). My shoe size is 12.5. So I'm big, skinny guy with big feet. I have no sense in how a shoe should match. I was just wondering if you could tell me what would look best on my feet from a brand like Nike, Puma, or one I could easily get in Chicago area. Btw. love watching Skins :-) Thanks.

Edward: the best look for fairly big feet is the plainest styles of trainers - good old Converse are a safe choice, mess it up with some of the great colours they do . Old school trainers like Nike Tennis shoes or their retro Waffle style / addidas gazelle or stan Smiths . Swear is a British label that does great very flat plain trainers with a twist - they have a brilliant new collection in collaboration with Hummel . So basically the plainer and flatter the better, avoid anything with chunky soles and too much detailing . ------------------------------------------------ HaydenWing: hi Edward, could you please tell me where can i get Maxxie's bag in Ep. 8 when he comes into the classroom with James. Thankies!

Edward: Maxxie's bag is by Freitag , who make great bags from recycled materials like tyres ,seat belts and inner tubes ------------------------------------------------ Chris Murray: Hey Edward, cheers for looking :) Could you tell me where Chris' tiger skin pink and black top is from, the one he's wearing in Episode 2?

Edward: Michelle's silver vest was from Kate Moss for Top Shop - her vests are from all over , American Apparel is great for brilliant coloured basics made in ethical factories ( much better for your conscience and the world than Primark !)

Episode 7

------------------------------------------------

moppet: Hey Edward, I just want to say I think the overall look of the characters in the show is amazing so whatever you are doing with the wardrobe you are doing it extremely well! I hate to be the 1,000,000,000th person to ask you this but...in Michelle's episode (Series 2, Episode 4) she wears a pair of skirt dungarees or a skirt with braces made of denimn. I would love it if you could tell me where you found it? Or where I could find a similar item? I know several people have already asked you on this about it. I would really appreciate it if you could get back to us about it. It would actually mean a lot! much love, moppet xx

snoogins: This may sound like a stupid question, but i thought you should be the one to ask. I have a big problem buying trousers for myself. I dunno if it's just my frame (I'm 6 foot and pretty thin). But anything outside of blue jeans look awkward on me. I was wondering if you had any tips when look for mens trousers. Oh and everyone always asks where certain characters shop. I was wanting to know whats your own favourite brands of clothing?

Edward: Hi snoogins. Blue jeans are a pretty good basic for any look - take advantage of your height by maybe wearing trousers a bit shorter than you normally would - Farah have a great range of trousers that suit all shapes, so check them out. My favourite labels are Margaret Howell, Vivienne Westwood, Thom Browne and thanks for asking... ------------------------------------------------

Part 12 | Sunsets & A New Normal | 6.7k words

‘Sequins & Zippers’ Summary: An internship with Harry Lambert transformed into a job of a lifetime - Aurora Del Gatto finds herself touring the world with the one & only Harry Styles as his ‘Head of Wardrobe.’ Aurora is nothing but nerves & excitement as she packs her bags & almost 100 custom designer suits that belong to an unbelievably kind rockstar. She never thought she’d fall in love on top of it all.

A/N: &&&&& we’re back !!! I’ve set a new posting schedule for the rest of this story & will be posting every other week until the end of July. cannot believe there will only be 3 more parts after this one 😩 

Sequins & Zippers Masterlist

General Masterlist

Here’s Part 12 ! 

She’s gotta stop comparing things, Aurora thinks. Her “normal” doesn’t exist anymore. This is her normal now. 

A sweaty, t-shirt wearing, tattooed rockstar is her new normal. Who would’ve thought? Definitely not Aurora. 

The familiarity of the dark, low lit SoulCycle studio feels like her old normal though. At one point, this was a home away from home in NYC, even in London. It’s comforting to clip the clunky cycle shoes into the pedals after adjusting the seat exactly how she needs it. The feeling of the rubbery handlebars on her dry palms causes her to release a breath. Aurora almost forgets that Harry is sitting at the bike next to her. They’re towards the back, Aurora prefers it here and Harry seems to as well. She can feel him look at her. A smile flashes across his face when she meets his eyes.

The room gets a touch darker and the music gets louder and then there’s a voice over the speakers. If Aurora thought the Dallas heat was high but this studio feels like it’s surrounded by fire compared to it. She doesn’t mind it though. After 3 months in new countries and unfamiliar hotels, the heat is the least of her worries. Aurora’s been craving some sort of familiarity. This studio is the closest she’ll get for a few more weeks. 

Aurora lets herself forget about everything around her; about the stress, about Harry next to her, about the jetlag, about everything. She focuses on the beat of the music that she can feel rattle the room, the voice of the instructor and how her legs pedal to the rhythm of the song. It doesn’t take long til she forgets it all. 

Class ends sooner than Aurora would’ve liked. How is it that 45 minutes can seem so long on a plane but so short when you’re enjoying something? 

Aurora's unlocking one of the white lockers in the lobby when Harry groans. She hands him his shoes, phone and wallet then grabs her own bag. She gives him a questioning look, but he doesn’t see it. 

“Ror, I’m sorry,” he says looking towards the windows that line the front of the lobby. She follows his sightline. “We’ll have to go quick,” his eyes dart across what is visible on the street outside. “I think there’s only one.”

Aurora can’t see what he sees but she can feel his change in demeanor. Harry tucks his laces into the inside of his shoes and slips them on, not bothering to tie them.

“One what?” she asks as she puts her own shoes on. Harry moves himself to stand closer to her, almost blocking her into the small space by the lockers. 

“Pap.” Aurora looks up to him, shoe laces in her hands, foot propped onto the open locker. He drops a hand to the small of her back. “It’s not ideal, but it’ll be fine.” 

Aurora ties her shoes and tosses her bag over her shoulder. “Alright, lets go.” 

Harry’s hand moves from her back to grab her hand. As they walk towards the door Harry switches hands and moves to her other side, seamlessly. “The car is parked on the street towards the right. Pap is towards the left. I’ll give 'em one shot and they should leave us alone, but let's not hang around.” Harry squeezes Aurora’s hand. She squeezes back. 

“Okay.” 

Harry opens the door and moves his torso abnormally to block Aurora as much as he can. He can’t stop the paps from being here but he can limit what they see. He’s sure to keep his hand tight around Aurora’s. She can feel him pull, only slightly, away from her to show his face in the opposite direction. She keeps her head down and within seconds Harry is by her side again. Aurora can feel the slickness of sweat on Harry’s arm as he gets closer. The heat didn’t bother either of them, the sweat either. The sleeves of Harry’s tshirt are still rolled up and it only allows for more of his skin to press against hers. Aurora focuses on that rather than the possibility of a stranger in a bush taking her photo. 

When they get to the big black rental suv Aurora can feel Harry relax his grip. He doesn’t let go of her hand until he opens the passenger door, helping Aurora in. He closes the door once she’s settled in the seat. Once Harry is in the driver’s seat he starts the car and blasts the AC. 

Now the Dallas heat is top of mind. Harry takes a large gulp of his water and then offers it to Aurora. She takes it gratefully. Neither of them say anything until they stop at a red light a few blocks away. “Think you could hold off on a shower for a bit?” 

“What?” Aurora asks with a surprised laugh. 

“The sun is starting to set and heard about this garden to watch it from.” 

Aurora leans over the consol and presses a kiss to his cheek. “Okay.” She kisses his cheek again before settling back down in her seat. 

“I have it bookmarked, will you pull up the directions?” Harry asks as he hands Aurora his phone. 

The automated voice of the GPS guides them as they drive down unfamiliar streets. There’s a small smile on Harry’s face when Aurora turns to look at him as they drive into an almost empty parking lot. Before Harry turns off the car, he turns around and peers out all the windows. Aurora doesn’t comment on it and Harry doesn’t say anything but Aurora knows he’s looking to see if anyone has followed them. No cars and no new people stroll into the lot or walk down the path near the water in front of them. 

Harry gets out of the car wordlessly and Aurora gets her jacket out of her bag at her feet. She’s met with Harry opening the door for her and helping her out of the car after she slides her arms into her jacket. 

Harry is quiet and Aurora can feel that he’s still tense, the opposite of what he should be after working out. They walk in silence, both clearly seeking out the open bit of grass near the water where the sun is starting to fall at the horizon. 

“Everything alright?” Aurora asks, voice soft. She reaches out to him and pulls him to a stop by his elbow. Harry turns around and smiles at her after shaking his head and running a hand through his hair,

“Yeah, alright, just thinking.” 

“Harry.” 

“Just feel bad that there were paps there.”

“You can only do so much.” 

“I still feel bad.” 

“Please don’t. If it helps at all, I felt completely safe. It’s awful that you’re good at it, but it is what it is. You took care of me. It’s fine.” Aurora smiles at him. “Honestly, I’m surprised we got through an entire SoulCycle class without anyone saying a thing to you.” 

“Yeah, sometimes it’s surprisingly easy,” he says with a shrug of his shoulders. 

Aurora sits down on a soft piece of grass and Harry sits next to her. “Come here,” Aurora says to him, hand rubbing on his shoulder. He shuffles himself in close to her, his back falling against her chest and shoulder. Harry immediately grabs Aurora’s hand that is resting at his shoulder. Leaning partly against her bent knees, she supports his weight fully. Her free hand moves to push his hair back, uncaring to the sweat that still lingers at his roots. 

The sun in front of them is starting to disappear behind the horizon and the orange and pink haze that covers the water and grass and all the trees makes Harry’s skin appear much tanner than it is. He looks up to Aurora for a moment, his eyes more golden than green in this light. She smiles at him and can’t believe the sight in front of her. Her lips find his in a drawn out kiss and when they open their eyes the orangeness of the sky makes everything into black silhouettes. Aurora can no longer see the golden and green flecks in Harry’s eyes. He turns his head back to the view in front of them and sighs. 

“Thanks for this,” Aurora says softly.

“Thought we’d enjoy a calm night before getting back to work,” Harry explains. 

“Harry?” Aurora questions after a few minutes. “Have you thought about what’ll happen at the end of all this?” 

A scoff comes from Harry’s chest, “End of all this? What d’ya mean by that, Ror? Got plans to dissapear once your jobs done or something?” 

“No! End of all this as in end of tour, like come July, last show is done…” Aurora trails off. “How’re we gonna do us?” She asks the last question quietly. 

“We’ll figure it out.” Harry’s answer seems so sure, like he knows there’s no way they won’t make it work. “Are you worried that the last show will end and you’ll go back home to New York and I’ll fuck off to LA or London and that’ll be it?” 

“Don’t think it’s that.” 

“Cause you should know that I would never do that to you. If anything, I’d follow you back to New York.” 

“Would you really?” Aurora aks, surprise evident in her voice. 

Harry turns his head so he can look at her, even though the almost set sun has casted a shadow across her face. “If you’d let me, think I’d might.” 

“I don’t even have an apartment in NYC anymore, I technically live at home right now. Would you still follow me knowing it’s my childhood bedroom at the end of the trip?” 

“As long as those old 1D posters are put away.” 

Aurora laughs and gently pushes Harry’s shoulders. He barely moves, only jostles a bit, still all of his weight relaxed on her. 

“We’ve got time to figure this out, yeah? Don’t worry about it too much.” Harry sits up then and twists around to face Aurora on his knees. Both of his hands land on the grass on either side of Aurora. “Anyways, you might be sick of me by the end of tour,” he says with barely a centimeter between their noses. 

There’s only a split second before Aurora decides to close the gap between them. And there’s only another split second before she feels blades of grass poke through the fabric of her jacket as she falls the short distance to the ground. 

On the drive back to the hotel, Aurora enjoyed the calm silence between her and Harry, his calloused hand in hers and both of their lips a bit more red than normal. Aurora thinks she can get used to this new normal. Evening workouts. Drives to go watch the sunset. Whatever comes in between. Maybe even making a routine out of it when tour is over, in whatever city they find themselves in. Even the hiding from paps part she doesn’t mind having to add in her new normal if it means feeling like this; loved, safe, content, happy… she could go on and on.

| | | | | 

Aurora applies a face mask to her skin using precise motions, evenly coating the pale green clay like substance all over her face. She isn’t applying this face mask as her normal skin care routine. It isn’t a sunday morning or evening like it when she normally applies a messy face mask to rid her skin of any residue left from the week. She’s applying this face mask to feign a feeling of being put together, to feign feeling normal. 

Her breathing is surprisingly calm considering the way her phone was blowing up only 15 minutes ago and the erratic heartbeat that was escalating with each notification. Said phone is face down on the chair across the hotel room and on silent now. Aurora washes her hands and towels them dry before leaving the bathroom, the facemask barely starting to set. She turns on the small coffee maker that sits on top of a small table across from the bed, next to the annoyingly large hotel tv that she never turns on. When it beeps and the light turns on, instead of brewing a cup of coffee she runs the machine just with water, a random hotel tea bag in the chunky class mug. 

An unnecessary face mask and a random cup of tea. Aurora knows what’s happening. She wishes it wasn’t, though. She sits down on the chair that’s sitting in the corner by the window. The hot cup of tea in her hands keeps her present in some way even though she won’t ever be taking a sip of it. 

She starts making a list in her head, a way to organize the chaotic thoughts that are clouding any sense of judgement she has, a tool from her college provided therapist. 

She’s in Houston, Texas, in a hotel room, on her own. 

She’s exhausted, maybe a bit hungover after too many drinks at dinner with Sarah and Helene after the Dallas show last night. 

There are photos of her and Harry leaving SoulCycle in Dallas. 

There’s a video from the show in Melbourne when Harry turned to Aurora during Sweet Creature.

There’s a photo of her standing in the mix wearing Harry’s black and white Gucci jacket.

There are thousands of tweets with photos and videos of Aurora, now, some from older shows, a lot from the Dallas show. 

Many of those tweets are terrifying to her. 

She has people coming out of the woodworks trying to contact her. She wasn’t secretive about her job. She posted about it on instagram when the tour started. It’s not like her instagram had a huge following (though it grew day by day). But now it’s getting 100’s of followers, likes, and comments by the second. Aurora didn’t even think about this, didn’t even cross her mind. 

There are so many notifications coming through on her phone, she can’t even filter out the ones from her family, from Lelia, from Issac, from Harry. 

She’s not upset that people know about her and Harry. She’s upset about the things people are saying. Flashes of news article headlines appear when she squeezes her eyes shut.

“Harry Styles falls in love on the bike, a soulcycle date for the books”

“Rumored Girlfriend of Harry Styles also works for him!”

“Spotted: Harry Styles’ new GF wearing the jacket from his voted worst outfit, ever”

“Harry Styles fans upset over rumored new GF” 

“The top 15 tweets from last night after fans found out Harry Styles is dating his stylist” 

She doesn’t like that she’s reacting this way. She knew that this was bound to happen. 

She’s scared to move, scared to go anywhere, to do anything. 

There’s a knock on her door. Aurora doesn’t recognize it at first. The sound of her heartbeat is loud in her ears and sounds just the same. There’s another knock on her door. It shakes her out of her thoughts. She stands up, the list in her head on pause. She’s shaking like she’s cold. She’s not cold. Aurora looks through the peephole in the door. She recognizes Harry’s eyes in a millisecond. Reaching for the door handle, she takes a deep breath. She opens the door slowly and only enough for Harry to slide in quickly, the door falling shut behind him. 

“Ror,” he says with furrowed eyebrows and his head tilts slightly. “Why aren’t you answering your phone?” The sight in front of him is confusing. He expected Aurora to have shut down and panicked by now. Jeff called him and told him what he woke up to that morning-- emails from media sources, calls, texts all of it. The second Harry got off the phone he got Rory’s room number and here he is now. Surprised, concerned, broken hearted for her, and now confused. She seems calm, a face mask covering her face, her eyes aren’t red or puffy. Maybe she’s okay. Maybe Harry worried for nothing. 

“I-I I turned it on silent. Haven’t looked at it in a bit, now,” she answers quietly. She may appear to be fine, but she doesn’t sound it. Her shoulders start to hunch, her arms wrapping around her own torso. 

“Rory, are you alri-” Harry doesn’t even get the question out. She’s sobbing now, tears abruptly falling from her eyes. She looks surprised, like she’s confused by the way she’s reacting. Harry lunges forward to hug her but her hands land on his chest, keeping him at a distance. She motions to her face. 

“Don’t wanna-” she chokes out, “get this all over you.” He nods, a small smile on his face at her priorities in this quick second. Harry instead places a hand softly at her lower back and walks her into the bathroom. He pushes her lightly to sit on top of the toilet seat. 

Harry wets a washcloth in the sink once the water runs warm. Neither of them say anything. Harry lightly wipes at her face, trying his best to remove the cracking mask, but wanting to be gentle with her skin. He has to use his free hand to hold her head up by her chin. She doesn’t have the strength or want to hold her head up and she lets it drop, chin to chest everytime Harry steps back to the sink. Silent tears fall from her eyes now, her shoulders shaking every few seconds. Silence fills the bathroom and after Harry wipes away the last remnant of the clay off Aurora’s face he tosses the cloth to the counter not paying it much attention. He drops to his knees in front of her. 

“Hey,” he says, wiping a tear from her cheek, the pad of his thumb warm and comforting on her skin. “I don’t want to push you and we don’t have to talk about it right this second, but we do have to talk about it. We have to.” His voice is strong but still soft--caring but concerned. 

“Okay,” Aurora whispers as she locks eyes with him. She can tell Harry’s not okay, but he’s better at dealing with this stuff. He’s done it for years. 

“How about you get changed and do what you need? I’ll make some coffee and then we can talk about it. Getting ready and some sort of normalcy helps me when this stuff happens.” Aurora nods and tries to manage a smile but she’s sure it doesn’t translate. 

Harry kisses her forehead before walking out of the bathroom. Aurora does as Harry advises. She goes to her suitcase and pulls out a pair of clean leggings and a white t-shirt. She takes off her pajamas from the night before and gets dressed, combs her hair into a low ponytail and even puts her jewelry back on. When she looks in the mirror, the bright bathroom lights make her squint but she can still see the splotchy skin on her cheeks, the redness of her eyes and her chapped lips. She doesn’t bother to do anything about it now though.

“Ror, I didn’t know you ever drank tea?” Harry questions from the other room. She turns off the lights and goes to find him.

“I don’t.” 

He tilts his head again, “Love, you’ve got a full mug of tea here,” he says, motioning to the mug that has gone cold now. 

“Uh yeah…” she trails off, “it’s a weird habit I have.” She grabs the mug and pours it out in the small kitchenette sink. “When things get all,” she motions around her head with both hands, fingers separated, “jumbled, chaotic,” she drops her hands before continuing, “I tend to do things that make me feel like everything is okay. Like I’ve got my shit together.” She lets out a hefty sigh, feeling the exhaustion from the panic start to weigh on her. “Not a weird habit I guess, more a bad habit.” 

“Makes sense,” Harry validates as he messes with the coffee maker. “Do what you gotta do for it to feel okay. When I was little and got upset or something happened at school, I would watch Alice in Wonderland.” Aurora smiles a bit. “Nobody really caught onto it until everything with the band started happening. Something would happen, either I’d mess up or something online would mess with my head and I would go back to it. My mom called me on a bad day and I had just started watching Alice,” he shrugs. Aurora moves closer to him. “It was then she put it all together. She always kinda knew that I would watch it but thought I just loved it so much that it made me happier, but really I just needed to see the chaos that Alice went through. It helped me forget what was going on with me.” 

Aurora hugs Harry from behind, her hands resting across his stomach. Her forehead presses between his shoulder blades before she lands a kiss against his t-shirt. Harry turns around in her arms after a minute or so. When Aurora looks up to him, his green eyes are more muted than normal and it doesn’t quite sit well with her. She figures it’s the stress. Harry’s touch is featherlight when he tucks Aurora’s hair behind her ears. 

“Thank you.” 

Harry’s head tilts in question. 

“For telling me that,” she clarifies. “and for being here and just being you. For loving me, even through all this.” 

“Hey,” Harry says softly, brows knit together, “Ror,” he grazes his thumbs over her cheeks, “I love you no matter what.” His thumb pulls at her bottom lip that she’s worrying between her teeth. “We both knew that this could be hard sometimes, but, I don’t wish to be doing it with anyone else.” Harry presses his lips to Aurora’s forehead and he can feel Aurora let out a breath, her shoulders falling. Her warm breath hits his neck. “Go sit down, I’ll bring you your coffee and we can talk about this a bit more.” 

Aurora does as he says, sitting in the corner of the small couch. Harry comes over with 2 hot mugs and sits down next to Aurora, making a point to sit down facing her. Aurora lets out a deep sigh. 

“I’ve dealt with this a lot, I know how hard it is. It’s still hard for me,” Harry sighs and runs a hand over his face, across the stubble that is scattered across his cheeks, jaw, and chin. Aurora can tell he’s thinking about what he wants to say next. “I’m really sorry, Ror,” he settles on. 

“Harry, please, no reason for you to be sorry,” she tilts her head, eyebrows raising and heart sinking. Aurora hadn’t taken a moment to see how Harry had been dealing with all this. Now she can see it. She can see the effect on him, the stress he’s holding in his shoulders, the worry in his eyes. She knows he’s been here before, somewhere else in the world, with so many different people; friends, family, lovers, just about anyone he’s held close to him. But he’s here now with her, with his Rory, and she knows he hates this part. This is where it’s bound to change. “This was all gonna happen sometime.” 

“But not like this,” he stresses. He’s clearly thought about it, planned how he would have preferred the news getting out, how he’d be there with her when the articles came out, when the tweets would surface. 

“There’s no way we could’ve planned for this,” she shares and Harry seems almost surprised when she practically reads his mind. “I knew something like this would happen.” 

“I’m still sorry that it did and I want to help you get through it.” 

“There’s no getting through it though, is there? It’ll happen time and time again.” 

“Ror-”

“Harry, it’s not like I didn’t expect this. We’ll figure out how to deal with it together, yeah? That’s what we have each other for.” Aurora can’t help but find some clarity when she realises she isn’t in this alone, when she realises Harry needs her just as much as she needs him. 

“I’m supposed to be the one helping you through this,” Harry says with a light laugh and then a clearing of his throat. Aurora smiles at him. 

“You may have experience with all of this, but that doesn’t mean I’m the only one being affected by it.” Aurora reaches her hands out to him and he takes them gratefully. They’re clammy and she can feel a slight tremble in them. “We’re in this together. I’m not going anywhere and there’s no reason that you should have to take care of this on your own. If I don’t have to do this on my own, neither do you.” 

Harry squeezes Aurora’s hands. “Haven’t really dealt with this not on my own before.” Aurora’s brows furrow now. “I always have to pick up the pieces, try and make it right, try to make it okay, but it’s hard when it seems like it’s all on me in the end. I’ve lost so many people because of this. I just want you to be okay… and to stay.” There's a slight hitch in the tone of his voice and it makes Aurora lurch from her seated position. She climbs onto her knees and her arms loop around his neck and shoulders. Harry’s surprised by her sudden movements but his arms enclose around her waist just a second later. His shoulders start to fall and Aurora can feel his even breathing on her neck. 

“I’m not going anywhere,” she whispers just loud enough for him to hear it. Harry’s arms tighten as confirmation. “We’ll take care of each other.”

| | | | |

“Sweet Thang” begins to blare through the speakers and they know they’ve got to get going. Harry pulls away from Aurora, regrettably. The familiar twang of the song means 1 thing and 1 thing only, Harry’s got to be walking up the stairs onto his stage in 4 minutes. 4 minutes and 12 seconds. Harry turns to jog down the hall but turns back around quickly, to press a messily aimed kiss to Aurora’s lips. 

“You taste like strawberries,” he rushes out, “did ya know that?” and then he’s gone. Aurora can barely focus on the shiny red boots running down the hallway away from her. 

She runs a finger across her bottom lip. They feel numb, tingly, swollen as she stands in the middle of Harry’s dressing room. 

| | | | |

Harry arrives at the arena with a new melody stuck in his head, a bright, sunshiny, just-for-aurora smile, and an iced coffee (also just for Aurora) in his hand. 

“Have you seen Aurora?” Harry asks the first person he sees. 

“Uhm, I know a lot of the crew were hanging out in the parking lot today. They set up tables and tents out there because it’s so nice out, maybe there?” 

Harry hums and then yells a thank you as he picks up his pace, almost jogging away and down the hall. He follows the signs until he can hear a roar of a group, laughter, chatting, some music. 

He squints his eyes when he walks through the propped open doors, the Nashville sun shining bright, a light breeze blowing through his hair. It doesn’t take Harry long to spot Aurora and his mother sat in 2 chairs and another 2 chairs have their feet propped up. They’ve taken it upon themselves to pull the chairs out from under the large white tent to sit in the sun instead. 

It’s a sight in front of him--his mother and his Rory laughing together. Harry makes a beeline towards them, waving and smiling at those who say hi. Instead of grabbing a chair of his own, Harry picks up Aurora’s feet and sits down across from her. 

“‘Ello, ladies,” he greets them, dropping Aurora’s feet onto his lap. 

Aurora and Anne say hello in unison and turn to each other and giggle. 

“Have a nice time today?” Harry asks with a dimpled smile. 

“Such a lovely time,” Anne answers. “We went for lunch and got our nails done.” 

Harry hums and reaches out for Aurora’s hand. He examines her nails, “Black, not surprised,” he comments with a squeeze. “Mum?” he asks, now motioning towards Anne’s hands. “Red, also not surprised. Both of you are very predictable.” 

Aurora rolls her eyes before asking, “So how was the studio?”

“Really, really, good, managed to knock out almost an entire song.” 

“Oh? and will we get to hear it?” Aurora asks with a sweet smile. 

“Mhmm, not quite ready yet,” he shares and when Anne turns away from them for a quick second, Harry gives Aurora a wink. A blush rises to her cheeks and she presses her lips together in a line to hide a smile. 

A welcomed silence settles between the 3 of them. They all relax as much as they can into the folding chairs, heads tilted up towards the sun. Harry slides off the sandals on Aurora’s feet and drops them to the ground. He starts to dig the pads of his thumbs into her arches, his other fingers trailing along the top of her feet. Aurora lets out a content sigh, eyes closing,  as another gush of the wind passes. 

The sun is warm and so are Harry’s hands on Aurora’s feet and calves as they trail up her leg slightly. Her skin is heating up as the minutes pass, Harry’s hands leaving searing paths over and over again. He breaks the silence slowly as he subconsciously starts to hum. The melody causes Aurora’s ears to perk up and pay more attention. 

“Why’s your foot twitchin’ like that?” Harry asks around a laugh. 

Aurora opens her eyes and looks at her foot then up to Harry, “must’ve been tapping along to your humming,” she figures. Harry tilts his head and some curls fall out of place. A mischievous smirk slides across his face before he lets out a short, deep, “hm,” like his brain is piecing something together. Aurora’s brows furrow for a moment, “What?” 

“Nothing, nothing,” he brushes it off, face going neutral again. Aurora shakes her head and lets it go. Harry’s hands are back on her skin and massaging the muscles of her feet, her eyes closing once again as she turns up towards the sun. Aurora doesn’t see the smirk that sneaks back up on Harry’s face. 

Harry and Anne had gone back into the arena a little while ago--soundcheck, a few people to meet, some time with his mum after spending the afternoon in the city. Eventually the sun begins to set and Aurora can’t help but think about summer sunsets on Lake Erie at the family lakehouse back in New York. She’ll have to bring Harry there one day. It could be the perfect post-tour getaway, after everything settles down. Late august at the lake house is Aurora’s ideal end of summer farewell. She had missed it last year as she was still in London. Aurora sighs when the alarm on her phone interrupts her daydream. 

 Wiping at her eyes, tired from the sun, she finds her way back to the dressing rooms. Aurora goes through her routine; Adam and Mitch first, they’re never in their dressing room, then onto Sarah and Claire, who are always in theirs (most of the time, Mitch and Adam are there, too). Then she makes her way to Harry’s dressing room, Anne is sitting on the couch when she walks in. Aurora notices the absence of nerves that would fill her stomach when Anne was around. She happily greets her as she begins to get Harry’s suit ready. 

Meeting Anne for lunch whilst Harry went to the studio, Aurora was 90% nerves. They disappeared as the minutes passed. She got more and more comfortable around her. Anne asked Aurora about the whole ordeal that happened in Texas. “Want to check in with you, sweetheart, how are you doing from earlier?” Anne didn’t have to outright say what she was talking about, Aurora knew. Harry must’ve told her, she didn’t mind though. 

Aurora assured her she was okay, that she’ll learn to deal and knows it comes with the territory. Anne shared some sound advice and reminded her that it’s all what they make it. She told Aurora how the first time Harry got upset over an awful press post, how it was that moment, once he calmed down, that he vowed to keep his work and personal life separate. 

“Kinda hard to keep it separate if I work with him,” Aurora jokes sheepishly. 

“Oh sweetheart,” is what Anne kept saying to calm her. Anne is at a loss for words for a moment and Aurora is too. When they meet eyes they start to laugh. “New territory I suppose,” Anne decides to say. 

“Definitely is for me,” Aurora responds with a smile. “But I’m being honest when I say i’m okay. and I know what you mean with keeping work and personal stuff separate. We’ll figure it out.” 

“Harry told me you said that.” Aurora raises an eyebrow in question. “That you 2 will figure it out. That you were quick to be there for him just as much as he was there for you.” 

“We’re in it together. That’s what relationships are about, yeah? Taking care of each other.” 

“You know,” Anne’s smile begins to widen as she speaks, “I’ve never heard anyone say that outloud, especially when talking about my own kid. You always think that that type of thing is implied in a relationship but you end up finding out that not everyone sees it that way.” 

Aurora isn’t sure how to respond, so she shrugs. 

“It’s refreshing, especially as it’s my son that’s involved. So, thank you.” 

“Please, Anne, don’t thank me. There is absolutely no reason for that. I love Harry,” she shrugs again after finding it so easy to say that outloud in the moment. “He deserves the same amount of love and care he gives me. I just hope I can do that for him.” 

“The way he talks about you,” she shakes her head, “he’d be so cross with me if he knew I was telling you this but,” Anne shrugs, “he thinks you walk on water. He just adores you, really haven’t seen him this happy in a long time. Most of the time he gets to a point where he realises what this other person really wants and he  ignores it and is miserable and it’ll end in a horrible way. He’s tried so many times to try to see past it, the way people use him, the lack of compassion, he tries so hard to ignore it.” 

Hearing Anne talk about Harry like this makes something click in her head. 

“I think we’re very similar in those regards,” Aurora says before taking a sip of her water. “We’ve both gone through some hard relationships in the past. Think we’re done with playing around.” Aurora is almost shocked at how she voices the thoughts running through her head. Anne can tell that she’s surprised and she reaches out to Aurora’s hand and squeezes it lightly. 

“It’s good you’re on the same page there. I can definitely see the difference this time around. I think he’s happy with his work and being back on stage has been so good for him. There’s obviously no need to rush anything but I can see you both are pretty serious about it all.” Aurora smiles and at the mention of Harry’s work Aurora feels the need to be clear about her work as well. 

“Anne, I do want you to know that I didn’t intend for this to happen,” Aurora shares. Anne’s face scrunches up in confusion. “I came on tour to work, to move forward in my career. It was always about work and it still is. I don’t want you to think I took this job with the plan to go after Harry.”

“Sweetie, I don’t think that at all.” 

“I think you might have a little bit at first and that’s okay. I knew it was a cliche. ‘Stylist falls in love with rockstar’, the whole shebang.” Anne laughs with Aurora. “And I also want you to know that I did not get involved with Harry to get further in my career either. I had no malicious intent behind anything that has happened.” Anne nods with a smile. 

Their food comes to the table and they thank their waiter. After a few bites in, Aurora continues.

“I just want you to know that I know how it could look and it’s an unusual situation. I hope you can understand that, just like Harry, my career is incredibly important to me and that it was always the ONLY reason I had taken this job. And in the end, we got lucky, I guess.”

“Aurora, you don’t have to explain yourself. Like I said, the way Harry talks about you, and how I’ve seen you do your job at the shows, I don’t question anything at all. And maybe I did at first, but that’s a mum’s job right?” They both laugh again. 

“Mother’s know best,” Aurora compliments. “They always do and always will.” 

Now back in the dressing room, Aurora joins in with the conversation being had with Harry and Anne, and Ayae too. She’s comfortable, at ease and most importantly happy, she can’t deny that. The royal blue suit in front of her is bright even without the stage lights and the rhinestones that line the edges of the jacket as well as the cuffs and lapel are iridescent and remind Aurora of an old dance costume she had when she was little. Aurora swears she had jazz pants that looked just like the ones she’s steaming for Harry, rhinestones and all, but hers was most definitely made by her mother and didn’t have a Gucci label on them. She shares a photo she had from the dance recital that year. She was 8 and Anne did all but cry at the photo. Harry was convinced he had never seen anything cuter and it made Aurora’s cheeks go bright red, the heat radiating from the steamer didn't help either. Aurora directed Anne through the album of all her old dance photos and Anne promised to share some of Harry’s baby pictures later. To which Harry whined about but Aurora shushed him with a quick kiss to his jaw after she situated his button down shirt on his shoulders and before she began buttoning it (Harry ended up unbuttoning about 2 of the top ones only seconds later).

When Anne leaves the dressing room, Aurora finds her usual perch on the counter in the echoey bathroom, Harry’s royal blue rhinestone suit coat resting on her lap.

“There’s something different about you today,” Aurora says as Harry wipes his mouth after brushing his teeth. 

“How so?” 

“Not sure, exactly,” she says squinting her eyes at him. “Might be because your mom is here? But there’s something else too…” Harry shrugs his shoulders and begins humming the same melody from earlier. Aurora watches him finish his routine as he starts to fall into a few vocal warm ups.

He’s singing words and melodies she’s never heard. 

“Wonderful and warm…. Da da daaaa, da da daaaa,” he trails off. 

“Is that the song you were working on today?” He doesn’t respond but keeps singing, in his own world. “Could ever go without… tastes like strawberries on a summer evening…” He repeats a few phrases over and over again. 

It’s right before the 5 minute stage call that it clicks. 

“It’s the song,” Aurora states. “That’s what’s different. It’s the new song you’ve written, huh?” 

Harry pulls Aurora in, pulling her off the counter  with a strong hand on her waist. “I think it has more to do with the inspiration behind the song rather than the song itself.” 

Never did Aurora think Harry would write a song about her, but she guesses this is what her new normal looks like.

i have some dreams

• Boston or NYC

• An apartment decorated with all kinds of flora

• A wardrobe of minimalistic clothing items e.g. trench coat, blazer, white tshirt, dark wash blue jeans, high heeled boots

• Adopting a cat and maybe a dog as well

• financially stable and successfully running my own business; after my first job at 16, I made a promise to myself that I will never work for anyone. It’s probably not realistic at the moment, but it is my dream.

• teach pole dancing

• write articles for a news publication and hopefully win a Pulitzer (or get killed by the CIA—a journalist’s highest honor lmao)

• pay off all student loans

• work on Wall Street

• peacefully sipping coffee at a brick-and-mortar coffee where I’m a regular at while I do work on my laptop

• a boyfriend is nice to have, but not necessary

• this list is getting too long but this is my first post

Encouraged for Men's Luxury Clothing Brands in 2022

You've come to the best location if you're appearing for the absolute best guys's luxurious clothing brand names. Coming From Everlane to James Perse to Italic, below are actually 5 of the finest. Keep reading to discover exactly how you can take advantage of these brand names in 2018. Everlane For eco-friendly mindful and also ethical customers, Everlane needs to be at the top of your checklist of high-end brands. They are a straightforward label and possess 2 retail locations in NYC and also San Francisco. They are dedicated to durability and also honest effort strategies. As a matter of fact, they are actually dedicated to decreasing their effect on the setting and also aiding local area communities. On top of that, they have actually lately made a large burst by introducing a line of environmentally welcoming men's tshirts.

Part 8 | The Kilt, Sunshine & Aurora Borealis | 5.6k words

Sequins & Zippers’ Summary: An internship with Harry Lambert transformed into a job of a lifetime - Aurora Del Gatto finds herself touring the world with the one & only Harry Styles as his ‘Head of Wardrobe.’ Aurora is nothing but nerves & excitement as she packs her bags & almost 100 custom designer suits that belong to an unbelievably kind rockstar. She never thought she’d fall in love on top of it all.

Read Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5, Part 6, Part 7

Masterlist

a/n: I don’t think I thank @niallhoranapologist​ enough - sooo here’s a little shout out to Gwen for always being willing to talk through Aurora & Harry with me cause she somehow always gets me out of wherever I’m stuck. loveyoumeanit. 

The sun is barely up when Harry taps Aurora’s shoulder lightly, pressing his lips to the cheek that

isn’t pressed against one of his pillows still. Aurora barely opens her eyes when he speaks softly. 

“Mornin’, Rory.” 

She hums and closes her eyes before they’re even open all the way. Harry kisses her cheek again, slowly, then presses quick kisses all over the skin that is immediately available to him. She sinks further into the pillow, trying to pull the blankets over her face more but Harry’s hands have already grabbed the sheets to keep her from moving them. 

“Come on, Ror, I’ve got coffee ready for you downstairs.” Her eyes open at that. “Jesus, you and your coffee. I don’t think I need to even mention that I also made scrambled eggs to get you downstairs.” 

“You made eggs?” She mumbles out as she rustles in the sheets, stretching a bit. 

“Sure did. I’ll meet you downstairs, okay?” She hums. “Do not fall back asleep. Coffee and eggs will only stay hot for so long. 

“Don’t you have a microwave?” Aurora challenges. Harry rolls his eyes. 

“Not the point,” he counters. “There’s a spare robe hanging off the back of the bathroom door if you want.”

Aurora reaches for her phone as Harry makes his way out of the bedroom and back downstairs. She replies to her family group chat and replies separately to her sister, Leila. She can’t not tell Leila that she is about to get out of Harry’s bed and go downstairs to eat the eggs and coffee he made for her. She knows Leila is asleep and Aurora won’t get the all caps response and a phone call until later this afternoon. 

She’s met with the reflection of a cozy creme robe in the big mirror when she closes the bathroom door. She smiles at it trying to recall if it was there last night or if Harry purposely got it out for her this morning.

The robe is big on her shoulders, she is drowning in it really but it smells like Harry. She pads down the staircase and then follows the sound of Fleetwood Mac softly playing in the kitchen. Harry is sat at the island on a stool, the hood of his robe pulled up over his head. He’s scrolling through his phone but locks it and puts it down when he hears Aurora’s feet on the tile. 

“She’s awake!” he exclaims as he stands up from his seat. Aurora walks to him and snuggles into his chest, not being able to resist how cozy he looks. She wraps her hands around his torso underneath the robe as he kisses her lips for the first time today. 

Harry pours Aurora a hot cup of coffee adding in some almond milk and sugar, one of her go-to ways to drink it. She thanks him before taking the first sip. Closing her eyes, she hums as she swallows, one of the shoulders of the robe slides off as she slouches on the stool. Aurora hasn’t felt this comfortable or content in too long. Being in a home, eating eggs made by the person sitting next to her is so far from eating room service in an allover beige hotel room. 

“Harry, these eggs are incredible,” she compliments as she takes another bite. He smiles at her. 

“Want or need anything else?” 

“No everything is perfect.” 

“I can make some toast or something too?” 

“No, Harry, seriously, everything is perfect.” She reaches over, tilting her head up and presses a kiss to his cheek.

Both of their plates are clean and Harry is shuffling through his music playing Aurora a few of his favourites. Aurora takes a final sip of her coffee and she can’t help but notice the permanent smile that Harry has had on his face all morning a small shine to his eyes that isn’t normally there. 

“What’re you thinking about?” 

“What? Oh, nothing, really.” Aurora raises her eyebrows slightly. Their stools are close enough together that their legs brush against each other every so often. She sets her hand on his leg and looks back up to him. “Happy, is all.” 

“Me too,” she agrees.

Later on, Aurora and Harry drive back to the O2, Harry takes her to his favourite cafe on the way to get her a coffee and himself a hot tea. Aurora’s first thing on her list is to track down her suitcase. With a quick kiss to her lips, Harry is whisked away by Jeff to get to work. 

“Wait a second,” Aurora hears from behind her, “is that THE black rolling stones tour shirt?” Aurora’s heart stops for a second. She turns around to find Gemma with her jaw dropped. “That’s Harry’s shirt isn’t it?” Aurora’s jaw mimics Gemma’s before nodding at her. “Did you guys go back to his last night? He’s never traveled with that tshirt.” 

“Uh yeah, we were at his house,” Aurora stutters out. She feels incredibly self conscious talking to Harry’s sister about this and she isn’t entirely sure why. Aurora knows what wearing Harry’s shirt could say and it’s not like she’s ashamed, but this is his sister. She’s not sure what to do. She wishes Jeff hadn’t taken Harry away just yet. 

“Oh, I’m so glad you said yes. He was so nervous about asking you.” Aurora lets out a sigh of relief. “But the real question at hand is that he let you wear THE black rolling stones shirt?”

“Oh, uh, I, he gave me it to wear, I didn’t pick it or anything. Is it yours?” 

“God I wish it was. I asked to borrow it like last year but he LOVES that thing so much. He’s never packed it ever! Barely wears it outside the house.” Aurora is surprised by all of this. When he handed her the shirt last night it seemed like it was just a random shirt from his closet. “It’s an original tour shirt. Harry found it at this random vintage shop a few years ago. It ended up being really rare and he’s been protective over it ever since.” 

“Oh, I had no idea,” Aurora says with a small smile.

“Man, he must really like you if he willingly gave you that shirt to wear.” Aurora doesn’t know how to respond to that. “Looks like he took you to his favourite spot too,” Gemma comments acknowledging the coffee cup in her hand. 

“Uh yeah, he knows I need it to survive the day. One cup is never enough.” Gemma laughs at that. “Last time I tried to work without coffee I burned myself pretty bad on the steamer.” 

“What? Are you okay?”

“Hah yeah I’m alright, it was a back in Munich and I was jet lagged and my flight got delayed. Whole thing.” 

“Dangers of the job, I guess?” Gemma says brightly and Aurora nods with a smile. “Where is my brother, anyways?” 

“Oh, Jeff got to him the second we walked into the arena,” Aurora answers. “Something about some stuff he needed to approve? Who knows honestly.” Gemma laughs. 

“Seriously, who ever knows? I just show up and make sure I’m out of the way. Harry tries to explain things to me sometimes but I never get it or care to, if I’m honest.” Aurora joins Gemma’s in laughter. 

“Glad we’re on the same page then. I just worry about his suits.” Aurora’s phone rings from her pocket. “Sorry, it’s my sister, mind if I?” 

“Not at all, I’ll see you later, Aurora!” The girls wave at each other as they walk opposite ways down the hallway. 

“Hi Leila!” Aurora answers. 

“Tell! Me! Everything! Now!” Aurora pulls her phone from her ear cause her sister is actually yelling into the phone. 

“First of all you need to calm down. I’m not going to tell you anything if you’re screaming at me.” 

“Okay, okay, okay.” 

Aurora walks into the empty arena where there are little to no people and sits at an empty chair behind the GA section. She likes to sit out here, it's the least busy place during the day, nobody ever interupts her. She tells Leila everything, as promised. Each bit she shares is met with a squeal or an ‘oh my god.’ When Aurora hangs up about an hour later she’s happy but her heart sinks thinking about the length of time till the NYC shows when she’ll get to see her sister. She picks herself up in a quick second and gets ready to work for the night. 

| | | | |

Harry Lambert and Harris Reed find her later when she’s finishing preparing Adam and Mitch’s clothes for the show. Aurora is beyond excited to see the familiar faces.

“Which suit is Harry wearing tonight?” Lambert asks as they walk to Harry’s dressing room. 

“The full cheetah print, Shania inspired one.” 

“Cheetah print?” Harris questions excitedly. 

“Uggg yes! It’s so incredible. I cannot wait to see it on,” Aurora confirms. “By the way, my mother LOVED the black and creme look you did. I had to send her photos of it cause describing it didn't do it justice.” 

“Aw that so sweet” Harris thanks Aurora. 

“Rory, I see Harry and Harris have found you,” Harry says when they walk into Harry’s room. He’s sitting on the couch finishing the food in front of him. He stands up and kisses Aurora before throwing away the empty food containers. “How’s Leila?” 

“Good, can’t wait for MSG so she can meet you. Says you need the official sister approval.” 

“Oh great,” he sighs. 

“Hey, if I had to do it so do you.” He sighs and kisses her again. 

“I had a feeling this would happen,” Lambert comments. “I’m really happy for both of you.” 

Aurora has a look on her face that translates shock and confusion. 

“I told him earlier when he first got here,” Harry confirms. “I could tell when he asked how it had been going with you,’ both Harry’s chuckle, “that he knew something was going on.” 

“Great…” Aurora muses. 

“Aurora, honey, I think it’s lovely. And anyways, I’m pretty sure that Harry’s fancied you since he met you the first time at the Today Show,” Lambert admits. 

Harry groans and walks back to the couch to sit down. “Thanks for that.” Aurora raises her eyebrows at both of them. 

“Wait what?” She asks in disbelief. 

“Ugg,” Harry groans again, “can we please not talk about it. We’re here now, yeah?” 

“I can’t believe you,” Aurora giggles, shaking her head. 

“I tried to give you as many hints right away but you just refused to pick up on them.” 

“I thought I was reading too much into it! I thought you were just sweet and flirty with everyone.” 

“Am not!” 

“Aurora, he’s kind to everyone but he isn’t that sweet to everyone,” Lambert adds. “And those sneakers? Come on!” 

“Listen, I had just started this job, I was trying to be professional!” 

“Sneakers?” Harris questions as they follow along with the story. 

“Aurora had to go to Gucci during prep week to pick up some shoes that we ordered for the tour and Harry, over here, put in a special order to make sure Aurora got Ace Sneakers for herself when she got there,” Lambert explains. 

“Harry, you flirt!” Harris comments with a wink. “Aurora, how did you not pick up on it?” 

Aurora’s sat on the couch now, next to Harry. He’s wrapped an arm around her shoulder, pulling her closer to his side. 

“Like I said, I was trying to be professional and honestly, I barely had known Harry then, only met him a few times. Also, it was a lot happening in a small time frame, I thought my brain was messing with me. I thought maybe he was trying to tell me something but I brushed it off so I could focus on my job,” Aurora explains quickly. Harry presses a kiss to the side of her head. 

“What matters is that we’re together now,” Harry says cheesily. Aurora rolls her eyes and groans. 

“You’re annoying, regardless.” 

“Hey!”

“I’ve gotta get your suit ready,” she says as she stands up. 

“What?” Harry asks Lambert and Harris as they both smile and shake their heads. 

“Nothing!” they say in unison before they’re both laughing. “Happy for the both of you,” Lambert admits. 

When Lambert and Harris leave to go find some friends, Aurora looks over to Harry. 

“So since the Today Show? Last May?” 

“Mhm,” he confirms, shying away now.

“You’re cute, you know that right?” 

Harry groans before he kisses her softly and Aurora smiles into the kiss. 

| | | | |

Harry invited Aurora out for coffee before they had to get to Glasgow arena this morning. They had both decided to stay in their own hotel rooms last night. Aurora and Harry both needed time on their own, just like anyone in any other relationship. They both know themselves well enough to know that even though all they want to do is spend time together, that time on their own is what will keep them sane. Aurora needed to call her mom anyways and knew it would be a long phone call and didn't need Harry there to listen to it all. 

Aurora is taking a sip of her coffee when Harry speaks up. 

“You know, traditionally, kilts are worn without anything underneath.” 

“No.” It’s all that comes out of Aurora’s mouth. 

“If I’m gonna wear a traditional kilt on stage in Glasgow I should honor the tradition fully.”

“Absolutely not.” 

“Is this my girlfriend or my head of wardrobe talking?” 

“This is any sane person talking.” 

“Rory,” he whines. 

“Harry, you are not going on stage in JUST a kilt. Absolutely not. Not only will Jeff actually murder me on stage in front of the entire audience tonight, but so would your mother.” Harry laughs. 

“More the reason to do it then.”

“No. There is no way I’m letting that happen, absolutely not. End of.” 

Harry goes back to picking at the croissant on his plate. He looks up to Aurora through his lashes and she just shakes her head at him. 

“But-” 

“Harry, no, we are not discussing this anymore. You’re not going fucking comando under your kilt on stage in front of thousands of teen girls.” 

“Ugg if you say so. You’re in charge in this department.” 

“Yes, I am,” Aurora says triumphantly. 

“What if Jeff gives me the okay?” 

“Harry, please,” Aurora says with a straight face. She knows he’s dragging on the convo just to annoy her. 

Not to Aurora’s surprise Harry brings it up throughout the day. She’s sitting with Sarah in Craft Services when Mitch, Adam and Harry join them. Clearly all in on the joke, Harry mentions it again, smiles trying to hide on his bandmates faces. 

“So have you given the kilts another thought?” Harry tempts Aurora. 

“Not this again,” she groans. 

“Come on, Rory, imagine all 3 of us guys onstage in our kilts! No one will know! A little inside joke for us all.” 

“Harry, you really think no one will know? What? Are you just going to stand center stage at the mic stand the whole night?” 

“Well, no,” he says matter of factly. 

“Great, so you’re gonna dance around stage, like you always do, but in a kilt, with nothing underneath, while it just moves on its own and shows all your bits and pieces? Yeah, makes sense,” Aurora finishes. Sarah laughs with Aurora and they both stand up, take care of their plates and leave the room. 

Aurora knows he’ll bring it up again. She really can’t deny she enjoys the banter and is having fun with it all.

“Mind if I steal her for a second, Sar?” Harry asks as he catches up with the 2 girls. 

“Be my guest,” Sarah smiles at them, going back where she came from to find Mitch and Adam. 

“What now?” Aurora draws out, dropping her head on her shoulders in faked annoyance. 

“Come on now, you’ve gotta wanna see me onstage in nothing but a kilt, Ror,” he guesses. “You can’t deny that,” he states, tossing his arm around her shoulders as they walk through the hallway. 

“I’ll admit, the audience reaction would be incredible, but it’s gonna be incredible the second they see the bottom of the kilt. As for going commando underneath… I think I’d rather save that for just me, not the entirety of Glasgow.” Harry’s walk slows down, “Oh,” is all that he says, finally realising one of the reasons behind Aurora sticking with her answer. “Just for you,” he repeats back. It’s a silent agreement between the 2 of them. 

Aurora grabs the hand that is resting at her shoulder. Turning her head, she presses a kiss to the palm of Harry’s hand. When they get to Harry’s dressing room, he checks the time on his phone quickly. 

“I’ve got a few minutes till someone is bound to come looking for me. Aurora raises her eyebrows at him. She opens her mouth to say something but Harry catches her lips with his. Closing the dressing room door behind him he turns them around, pressing Aurora’s back to the open space on the wall next to the door frame. His thumbs dig into the waistband of her jeans as he grabs at her hips tighter. When he pulls his lips from her for a quick moment he presses their foreheads together. Aurora catches her breath, her pupil dilated now as she looks back at him. “Just for you, Ror,” he repeats again. 

“Don’t start something you can’t finish, Harry,” Aurora says breathlessly. She knows it's not the time or place, but making jokes and hinting towards anything more than kissing makes Aurora’s heart race and she gets closer to being ready to fully be with Harry. Harry’s lashes flutter before he connects their lips again. 

Aurora’s sure that there are bruises forming where Harry’s fingers continue to press into her hips, but she couldn’t care about it one bit. With the way she feels right now, happy, light, free, warm, how could she care about a simple bruise that will remind her of this moment with Harry for the next few days. She wraps her arms around his neck, scratching her nails lightly against his sculpt. She keeps pulling him down towards her because he keeps pulling away for short moments and she whines every time. 

Harry fully pulls away now, his hands holding on to her face. He smiles at her, eyes disappearing as the crinkles of his eyes get deeper. The pair smile into the last kiss. Aurora wraps her hands around his waist and lets her cheek rest against his chest for a long moment. Not before long, they both hear the echo of Harry’s name in the hallway, interrupting their sanctuary they’ve created in each other, in this dressing room that seems to travel from city to city. The dressing room that holds memory after memory, moment after moment. A different city each night, but the same world is created in the dressing room no matter where they are. A world they’ve created on their own to share memories together. A somewhat of a constant in their lives right now. The random couches that are always adorned with Harry's pillows, his duffle somewhere nearby. Aurora’s tour lookbook sitting on the couch. They both have created a space for each other to be comfortable without even knowing it. 

| | | | |

Harry pulls on the kilt and fastens it at the waist band. When Aurora looks back at him, he has the full outfit on and her brain somewhat short circuits. She really can’t figure out what it is until Harry looks at himself in the mirror with a bright smile on his face. He looks incredibly comfortable in himself. He’s confident, completely carefree. It’s not that he doesn’t come off this way everyday or in every suit, it’s that there’s something different here. There’s a sparkle in his eye like he’s really proud of himself in this moment and it makes Aurora’s heart melt. When he turns around to her like he always does, instead of checking to make sure everything is in order and looks good, she reaches up to her tip toes and presses a kiss to his lips. 

“What was that for, Ror?” Instead of responding she kisses him again. He raises his eyebrows in question but shakes his head and kisses her back. 

Harry can’t help but repeatedly make sharp turns and spin around in circles to show everyone how the kilt moves. Aurora giggles off to the side and makes a short comment to him under her breath about how she’s glad he decided to listen to her and not go commando under the kilt. 

“I could still decide to do it before I go on stage! Surprise you when you go watch from the audience.” 

“Then I’m staying back here until you are literally singing on stage.’

“You can’t do that, you’ll miss the reaction from the audience. I know you’re dying for the reveal tonight!” 

“You’re not wrong…” 

One last kiss and a solid promise to keep his pants on is all Aurora needs before she makes her way to the audience. 

She parks herself in the sound mixing section that’s barricaded off near B stage. She just HAS to witness the audience reactions to his kilt. 

The white lights shine over the rounded screen, illuminating the fog and the yells and screams go from loud to deafening as they do every night. The screen starts to lift and it isn’t until the top of his socks show and the skin of his knees are visible to the audience that the fans really know what is happening. The screams get even louder. Aurora can hear herself think at this point. She hears yells of “oh my god” repeatedly coming from the audience members around her and she has to cover her smile with her hand. Aurora’s just as entranced by his movement as every single person in the audience. When he takes his first steps from the mic the pleats of the kilt expand and follow his movement and she can’t help but chuckle to herself recalling the ongoing conversation until the last second when Harry was pushed on stage. 

“Couldn’t take you home to mother in a skirt THIS short,” Harry sings, changing the lyrics as he lifts his skirt a few inches. 

There’s too many times to count when Aurora’s heart flutters while watching Harry on stage tonight. Between the kilt, the energy in the SSE Hydro, the past few days together, she can’t tell what’s been her breaking point. Yet, here she is, ready to fully give herself to the man running around stage in a kilt, with black chipped nails and a goofy smile on his face as he... takes out a banana.

Aurora can’t help but laugh out loud. Here she was admiring the man she’s falling in love with and he takes snacks out of his sporn. Aurora is dumbfounded. She looks to one of Harry’s sound engineers that are standing nearby. 

“Did you know about that?” He asks Aurora. 

“Not a clue,” Aurora shakes her head. 

The entire audience laughs as Harry talks about his sporn and the snacks he’s brought on stage. Along with the bit about the sporn, Harry makes jokes that continue from earlier in the day after a fan asks from the front row if he’s got on anything underneath. Aurora can’t help but laugh along. 

| | | | |

“You brought snacks on stage?” Aurora asks when Harry walks into his dressing room. “Sure did. This thing is great,” he adds, grabbing the bag tied around his waist. She shakes her head at him and then her demeanor changes. There’s a look in her eyes that Harry can’t figure out. “What?” Aurora crosses her arms against her chest and shakes her head again. He raises his eyebrows at her. 

“Nothing!” She lets out with a short giggle. She walks towards him, reaches up to her toes and presses a long, deep kiss to his lips. “Good job, tonight.” It’s all she says before walking to the wardrobe cases. “Come on, start changing.” Harry’s jaw drops slightly before he starts taking off the kilt and changing into a pair of joggers and white t shirt. When Aurora turns around to see him clothed she’s caught off guard. “Aren’t you gonna shower?” 

“Nah, I’ll just shower at the hotel tonight. Kinda just wanna get out of here.” Aurora tilts her head at him, eyes narrowing. “What were your plans for the night?” 

“Nothing…” Aurora answers slowly, eyes still narrow at him. 

“Do you need anything from your hotel room?” He skips right over asking her to spend the night in his room.

“No, not really” Aurora answers as she finishes hanging his clothes from tonight. 

“Okay, I’ll meet you at the garage entrance in like 15 minutes? A car should be ready for us there.” 

“Okay,” Aurora says, meeting Harry halfway for a kiss before he leaves the room to do his final rounds of the arena.

| | | | |

Harry jumps in the shower when they get to the hotel room but not without asking Aurora to join in jokingly. Only he doesn’t notice that she thinks about it for a quick moment before laughing off his joke. Aurora’s conflicted, but not for long. She makes a decision by the time Harry comes out of the shower, a clean pair of joggers on his hips. 

It happens the same as it did a few nights ago, when they were back in London in Harry’s master bedroom. She traces his tattoos again and they end up a mess of tangled limbs for a bit. When Aurora pushes Harry to his back, she sits herself on his lap. He sits up, following her lips, running his hands up and down her back underneath her t-shirt. 

This time though, she lifts her arms above her head, her stomach peaking out between the waistband of her underwear and the hem of the shirt. Harry looks at her, making sure to read the look in her eyes carefully before he takes the hem in his hands and pulls it over her head. 

| | | | |

Aurora is signing her name on the bottom of the last page of a large packet with the Gucci logo stamped on every page. She hasn’t stopped smiling since they started going through the contract. Jeff walked her through it and has been pointing out all the places to sign and initial. 

The contract includes what Aurora can and can’t say, what her job entitles and where she has to be and when. It’s only the 3rd official contract she’s ever signed, her first ever with Gucci. She’s officially going to Italy to work on Harry’s photoshoot for the next tailoring campaign. 

“So from Japan, you’ll fly with Harry to Italy and meet Lambert there with the rest of the Gucci team. You’ll be there for about a week. You can decide what you want to do in between then and the South American leg of the tour, but we’ll get you back with the crew from wherever you are,” Jeff finishes. 

“Okay, great. Thank you, Jeff!” Aurora exclaims with a big grin. 

Harry kisses Aurora’s cheek when Jeff leaves the room. “I’m really happy you get to work on this project with me.” 

“Me too,” Aurora says, leaning into Harry’s side as they relax into the couch. 

“We’ll have so much time there between working. I have so many places I want to show you,” Harry adds with a sparkle in his eye. “We can stay at my favourite villa and everything.” Aurora's ears quirk up at that. 

“Stay together?” She asks timidly. 

“I mean, only if you want to,” Harry adds, equally as timid. 

“No, that’d be wonderful, really. Like a mini vacation before the rest of tour.” 

“Imagine all the time we’ll have and shooting is much less tiring than performing every night.” Harry smiles down at Aurora. “Maybe we’ll both be able to stay awake long enough to actually-” he wiggles his eyebrows obnoxiously at Aurora. Her cheeks turn a light shade of pink and she hides her face in his chest for a moment. 

Aurora doesn’t look up at Harry just yet, instead she focuses on the feeling of Harry’s shirt under her fingertips. She opens her mouth to say something and it barely comes out a whisper, “Maybe I’ll finally sleep with you by then.” Harry hears it and she knows he does. 

“Hey, it’s fine, Ror. We were both tired anyways. And above all, you don’t owe me anything. We can go at whatever pace you want. I’m not going anywhere, okay?” 

“I just thought I was ready, but I just couldn’t-” 

“Rory, please don’t think about it too much. I’m okay with whatever you want to do.” 

“I feel bad,” she says softly, still not looking up at him. 

“Do not feel bad. Hey, look at me for a second,” he says. When she doesn’t look up he raises her face with his finger at her chin. “I had an incredible time last night, okay?” Aurora nods minutely. “Sex isn’t what this is all about, yeah? It’s nice and yeah, I’m excited to share that with you, but that doesn’t mean I didn’t enjoy last night or any other time we’ve spent together. I just enjoy being with you, however you want to spend that time. Whatever you’re comfortable with. Whatever you’re ready for.” 

Aurora nods her head and offers him a soft smile. 

“Yeah? You alright?” He asks to confirm what her nods are supposed to relay. 

“Yeah, I’m good.” Aurora kisses his jaw line before wrapping her hands around his neck and pulling him towards her. She falls back onto the empty space of the couch next to her, Harry following her actions. He scatters kisses across her face and she erupts with giggles. 

“Come on, I’ve got a surprise for you,” Harry says as he gets off the couch, pulling her with him. 

“A surprise?” Aurora questions in disbelief. Harry hums at her, grabbing her hand as he leads her out of the dressing room and down the hallway. Harry grabs a small paper bag that was sitting on a large black case near the stage entrance. He doesn’t say where they’re going or even a hint to the surprise as they travel through one more set of doors and into the empty arena. Harry leads Aurora to the B stage and motions for her to sit on it. Harry joins her and she’s instantly brought back to the first time they really spent time together in Amsterdam. 

“Here,” he says, handing her the paper bag. She looks at him, nothing but question after question filling her head. She narrows her eyes at him before peaking into the bag. “Go on, it’s nothing big, but I thought you should have it.” She smiles at him before pulling out the white tissue paper that fills the bag. 

What she pulls out next, she doesn’t believe it. In her hands is black and white floral fabric. She recognizes it instantly. 

“Harry, I can’t- why would you-” she’s unable to finish her own thoughts nonetheless her questions. 

“I saw how much you loved it and I loved seeing you in my t shirt. So, it’s yours,” he says with a lopsided smile. 

“Harry,” she whispers. He presses a kiss to her hair. 

In her hands is the jacket to Harry’s 2015 American Music Awards suit. The black and white floral gucci print is ingrained in her memory forever and now it’s hers. She can’t believe him. 

“Harry, I really can’t take this. I appreciate the thought, but you have to keep this.” 

“I know it’s not going anywhere if you have it. And I know without a doubt when I look into the audience one of these nights and see you in that jacket at the back of the pit that my heart won’t know what to do. It’s yours.” 

Aurora is speechless. She feels the same as she did when she walked into the empty arena in Amsterdam when he was wearing that yellow tshirt, looking like sunshine in the darkness. Actually, she doesn’t know how but she feels even better than she did in that moment. She’s indescribably happy and warm and she’s got her own personal sunshine in front of her. 

Even though it seems that Harry and Aurora exist in a million different worlds - back at his home in London, running in the halls of an arena, meandering through a museum in Spain, the late night car ride, nearly empty hotel rooms- he’s still the sun in every single one. It’s a constant feeling. He’ll walk into the room or his voice echoes through the speakers clear as day over the crowds of screams and it’s like the sun is at its highest peak in the day. 

Harry may be Aurora’s sunshine but to him she’s the bright light that has him seeing new things, experiencing love in a different way. It’s ironic her name is Aurora, he thinks. Like the Aurora Borealis, she lets out these streaks of colours that extend to depths he hasn’t even been able to get to yet. Just like the Borealis, Aurora changes, she shimmers and grows and retracts sometimes, but her lights, an array of colours, show up for Harry everyday. Sometimes they’re pink, sometimes they’re orange, sometimes they’re green, but they’re always there. Harry wants to follow every single ribbon of light she lets out. And just like the Northern Lights, Aurora can only be seen by some and not everyone will get to see all the colours. Harry’s here to stick around for it all though, to see the entire rainbow.

Thank you soooo much for reading !!! I hope you enjoyed ! please like & reblog & share with yooooo friends ! <3
