I Can't Help It
Chapter 43.
We pulled up into his parents driveway, and I was nervous as hell.
" Are you okay?" He ask, putting the car in park, and taking my hand in his. I nodded.
" Yes."
" Okay, well before we go in, I need to warn you."
I let let out a big sigh. Here it comes.
" My dad isn't around. Him and my mom separated when I was young, leaving me and my sister Gemma in the hands of my mother. So it's just going to be me, you, my mother, and my sister." He squeezed my hand. I nodded, feeling better.
" I'm sorry Harry." I said. It's sad that his father left him.
" Don't Apologize. I'm over it." He said. I nodded.
" And one more thing." He added.
" What?" What else could I possibly have to worry about.
" Don't forget that I love you." He murmered, his eyes never leaving mine. the way the words squietly left his lips made me crazy. I smiled.
" I love you." I leaned over and gave him a long, passionate kiss that I hope lasts me through the night.
I pulled away, and got out. He met me halfway around the car and laced his fingers with mine.
We got up to the porch and he gave me a kiss on my forehead before he let himself in.
" Mum!" He yelled.
" Harry!" An adorable woman came around the corner with such a warming smile.
" It's so lovely to see you Harry." She hugged him. I stood there awkwardly as she turned to me. She surprised me with a hug.
" You must be Maria. Such a beautiful young woman. Harry, how'd you manage to catch her?" She laughed. I looked t Harry who looked at his toes with his dimples showing. His hands we in his pockets and his curls were perfectly sculpted.
" I'm Anne." She said.
" It's so nice to finally meet you Anne." I warmly smiled. I loved her so much already.
" Mum, the lasagne is re-" a girl with long hair and oven mits on came around the corner. I'm guessing the kitchen is over there. She looked surprised.
" Harry!" She yelled running over and hugging him. Who is she? She better be Gemma.
" Hey Gemma." Harry chuckled, peeling her off him.
She smiled and turned to me.
" Hey. I'm Gemma, Harry's sister. You must be Maria right?" She asked. I nodded as she hugged me.
" That's me."
" Well how about we go eat?" Anne asked.
" Yes definently." Harry said. I followed them all into the kitchen and to the dining room. Harry pulled out a chair for me next to him.
" Thanks." I smiled as I sat down.
" Anytime babe." He whispered.
he sat down next to me. Gemma took her spot across from us. I looked around the table at all the food when Anne came in with the main meal.
" Looks really good." I awed.
" Thanks dear." She smiled.
Harry rested his hand on my knee as she sat everything down.
" Eat away." She smiled as she sat down. I reached over and grabbed a plate before loading it with all the great food.
" So Maria, what do you do?" Anne asked.
Uh oh. This is what I worried about.
" Maria is a teacher at the school like me." Harry said.
" That's great Harry but I'm sure she can answer for herself."
I laughed, wiping my mouth with my napkin.
" Yes, I'm just an intern though. You know, like a student teacher?"
" Oh yes. What subject?" She asked.
" History." I blerted.
" That's awesome!" She said all chippy. It warmed my heart.
" How old are you?" Gemma asked.
" Uh.. 20." I lied. I hated lying.
" You look really good." She smiled. I laughed.
" Well thank you. I've always sort of been, the smaller kid in the group." I added, makin my lie more real.
" Compared to Harry your are absolutely small!" Anne smiled. I looked at my wonderful boyfriend and smiled.
" Yeah."
After dinner, we sat in the living room just talking and laughing, have a great time.
" You know what? Harry never got to give you a tour of the house he grew up in!" Anne said. I looked at Harry who was blushing.
"Would you like to show me around." I smiled.
he stood up, grabbing my hand.
" More than anything."
we made our way up the stairs.
" Bathroom. Gemma's. Master. .. Ah here we go." He said as he opened the door to a room. I walked it to a homey feeling bedroom, with dark blue walls.
" My bedroom. Hasn't changed a bit." He smiled. I looked around at all of his childhood photos and toys.
" Your such a dork." I laughed, looking at all of his comic books. I turned around to see he was extremly close to me. I giggled as he took my hips and pressed me against the bookshelf.
" I've wanted to kiss your lips all night." Harry soothed. He Bent down, connecting his lips with mine. The way his lips tasted made me tingle inside. I could never get tired of it.
I granted his acces as his tounge explored my mouth and we fell down onto his bed.
Just as his hands slid up my shirt, I rolled him off and laughed.
" We probably shouldn't keep them waiting any loner."
" Your such a tease!" He proclaimed.
" But it drives you nuts huh." I laughed as I stood up and he followed me out of his room and into his living room.
At the end of the night after we said bye, me and Harry were driving home in the dark.
" That went well." He said.
" you think they like me?"
" I think.. That they fell just as hard for you.. As I did."
" Are you okay?" He ask, putting the car in park, and taking my hand in his. I nodded.
" Yes."
" Okay, well before we go in, I need to warn you."
I let let out a big sigh. Here it comes.
