And so it begins.

The door shuts behind him, the sound of the outside world being drowned out and leaving me in the peaceful silence of the store.

Alone.

I could get used to this, it's a part of being with him so I'll have to acclimate but I don't think I will ever get used to the split second sympathetic look Hunter gave me the moment Harry was really gone.

It makes my heart sink because I know I'll just keep seeing it. Over and over I will be left behind and I will get that look when I really don't deserve it. I'm with Harry and happy so if we need to travel like this then I'll deal with it.

It's a small price to pay to actually be with him.

Never the less I have to turn away before that one single look consumes me. I should feel sorry for myself. I have bigger things to deal with at the moment. I still have to find something for Harry. I might be going overboard but when someone gives you so much on a daily basis like he does, you want to make sure the little you can give is special.

I slowly turn on my heel taking in the wide array of bags and clothes and shoes in the store. They all look beautiful but I have no idea what Harry might like. Like Monica said I am sure Harry would put on a smile and be happy with whatever I come up with but I want him to actually enjoy it, put it to good use.

It's my fault I'm in this situation, to begin with though. I should have paid more attention to what he was saying rather than watching how his jaw moved while he spoke.

Damn him and his chiseled jawline.

As the associates busy themselves putting away all the things Harry didn't want around me, I stroll over to the wall of shoes. I know they had set some out for him but I can't remember if he liked anything in particular.

Perhaps I should just put on my red Victoria Secret lace set and just do that. I already know I would be a total trainwreck but maybe it would give him a good laugh.

"Miss," I jump out of my skin turning to see who it is. "Can I help you with anything?"

I place my hand on my chest trying to calm down my heart. The room was so quiet a moment ago, I wasn't expecting someone to come help but maybe she knows something I don't.

"I hope so, um..." I look between the girl and the wall of fine leather goods hoping something might jump out at me but sadly nothing does. "You wouldn't happen to know what Harry likes would you?"

"Mr. Styles?"

"Ya... um, maybe something he looked at but didn't purchase tonight?"

Harry not buying something seems almost impossible with the number of things he walked out with tonight. Wouldn't be surprised if he walked out with the whole store.

"Of course," she chirps starting to walk away. I follow and listen to her every word.

This might actually work.

"Mr. Styles was mainly looking at gifts but he did take some time looking at these Miss."

She pulls down a pair of plan leather open back slippers with a gold clasp over the top of the foot. "They've been very popular this season."

I take the shoe from her, feeling the smooth leather and the coolness of the clasp. I wouldn't have picked these out myself but then again, I've been very distracted. They are a classic style and look comfortable.

Maybe I want a pair myself.

No Mia, focus. You aren't shopping for yourself.

These could really work. With Harry's eclectic taste I'm sure he could find some outfit to wear them with.
