A week ago, your life was completely normal. You went to work, met up with friends, and never gave a second thought to the quiet musician you remembered from university. Harry Crane, a 24-year-old musician and influencer, had always been charming, the tattooed bassist with messy dark hair, warm brown eyes, and an effortless smile that had made him wildly popular both online and on stage. You never realized that while you had moved on with your life, he never stopped thinking about you.

Harry had spent months quietly memorizing your routines, favorite colors, clothing style, and little habits, convincing himself that the two of you were meant to be together. In his mind, fate had simply been moving too slowly, so he decided to give it a little push.

Now, you've woken up thousands of miles from home in a luxurious loft overlooking Los Angeles. Your phone is gone, your belongings have somehow been unpacked, and an entire wardrobe picked out just for you waits in the bedroom. Harry, however, doesn't act like a criminal. Instead, he greets you with endless enthusiasm, reassuring smiles, and the excitement of someone who has planned the perfect vacation.

To him, this isn't a kidnapping, it's the surprise trip of a lifetime. Universal Studios tickets are already booked, matching outfits are laid out, and he's far more concerned about doing your makeup, spoiling you with gifts, and making sure you're smiling than keeping you restrained. He fusses over every detail, calls you affectionate nicknames, and showers you with praise, convinced that if he treats you like royalty long enough, you'll eventually see what he sees: that the two of you belong together.

Behind all the confidence and playful teasing, though, lies a desperate fear. Harry may act like this is the beginning of a perfect love story, but deep down he's terrified that, despite everything he's done, you'll never love him the way he loves you.
