Summer Break
I. Am. Good.
“I understand.”
I felt the smile begin to spread across my face, but I kept it slight when I pulled away to look into Harry’s eyes. Removing my arms from around his waist, I put them on the back of his neck and aimlessly began to up and down his neck. His eyes focused on mine, and I took this as a chance to study his green ones. He pupils were larger than usual, and I could’ve sworn I read something about enlarged pupils before, but I could not remember what it was. As much as I wanted to remember what it was, I didn’t really care right now because I was here with Harry.
I was with the best guy I could ever ask for, a guy I didn’t deserve. He was a guy that could go anywhere, do anything, be with anyone, and act like a complete dick. He wasn’t though, He was here, standing shirtless in a hotel room, with me, and was the most genuine human being I have ever met. Though sometimes I doubt things, maybe everything, I know that he makes me feel good enough for him, hell he makes me feel more than that! This is something I don’t think that I will ever get used to.
Drifting from my thoughts, I run my hand over his cheek and through his hair. “Harry.” I half whisper. “Uh, thank you for being here.” I looked down, sort of embarrassed because I didn’t know what to say to him, and that was the first thing I thought of.
“Annabelle,” he spoke quietly, gaining my attention once again. He pulled me closer to him so our bodies touched; setting butterflies lose in my stomach. “There’s nowhere else I’d rather be.” And when he said that, just like every other time he did, the biggest smile spread across my face. “I love your smile.”
“Stop.” I replied playfully. I kept it on my face though my mind was thinking about the word love falling from his lips as easy as they did last night. As much as I wanted to tell him what he said last night, I couldn’t. There are so many reasons why, but I can’t go into it right now.
“And thank you for helping me last night, or this morning. That should not happen again.” He shook his head.
“You know what Harry?” he raised a brow at me. “I actually liked it… uh, taking care of you, being there for you. You’re always here for me, and I feel like that’s it, you know?” I don’t mean to sound as if I want to start another serious conversation; I’ve had plenty of those for now.
“Rubbish…” he paused for a moment looking away from me. “Have you read my note to you yet?”
“Oh no, I was waiting. I can if you want me to, it’s right over-” I began to pull away before Harry stopped me.
“No! You don’t need to. Read it whenever you want.” He said quickly, okay then? I sent him a questioning look, but he just shrugged it off. “You want to go out today? Just walk around, and we can go grab some yogurt from that place you took me when we met, yea?” He asks, pulling me into a hug again.
“Mhm, yea. That sounds good.” I mutter against his chest. “But…” I say moving up again to look at him, seeing the worry flash across his eyes. “I’m really hungry! So we need to hurry and get ready before I die of starvation.
He smiled and kissed my forehead. “30 minutes?” he asked.
I looked at him like he was crazy. “Are you crazy, you know how long it takes me to get ready!?” I laughed. “Fine… 45? I’ll come over when I’m done?”
“45 minutes! No later!” he said pointing a stern finger then touched my noise with a grin across his face. I reached up and kissed his lips quickly, and then I kissed him once more. “Ok, Woo. 45 minutes might not be good for my health. How am I supposed to stay away from you for that long?” he joked.
I rolled my eyes and playfully hit his chest. “Shut up, and go get ready.” I told him, pushing him away.
“Fine!” he threw his hands up and grabbed his shirt. “The door will be open.” He told me while he pulled his black shirt over his head.
“Alright.” I answered, watching him come back over to me. He kissed me on the lips once, then left little kisses over my face. I couldn’t help but giggle at how cute he was. He pulled away with a cheeky smile across his face, then kisses me again on the lips.
“See you soon.” He winked, walking toward my bedroom door.
I followed behind him and watched him walk through the rest of the room before reaching the door. Before he opened it, he looked at my with a goofy grin and blew me a kiss. I laughed aat him and watched him turn and leave my room.
I quickly turned and practically ran towards my bathroom; partly because I was hungry, but mostly because I couldn’t wait to see Harry again! Which is crazy right, I mean I literally saw him a minute ago, but I wanted to see him again. So I turned the shower on and jumped in, washing my hair and body as quickly as I ever have. I shaved my legs pretty quick too, and I’m honestly surprised I didn’t cut myself. Before I know it I was done and I don’t even think it took me 10 minutes.
Wrapping my hair in a towel and my body with another, I walked to the mirror to brush my teeth then begin my makeup. I didn’t want to apply a lot because it would probably just end up melting off; also it’s not good for my skin to have huge amounts of makeup on it so much during the Summer. So I decide on a tinted moisturizer, a winged liner, and a subtle lip. That just meant my makeup took no time at all as well! Dang! I snapped to the reflection in the mirror. I. Am. Good.
I laughed at myself as I walked into my room to get an outfit, finding something that wouldn’t cause me to die from the heat. I pulled out a crop top and shorts, quickly putting them on. Then I just added some jewelry, per usual. Then I walked back into the bathroom and took the towel off my head and let my hair fall. Deciding to be simple, I combing through my hair then scrunched it up a bit before pulling it back into a messy looking, low ponytail.
Looking in the mirror once more, I smiled happy with myself for getting everything done in less than like, 30 minutes. Walking to through my room, I put my shoes on, then grabbed my purse and phone to walk out the door. When I entered the kitchen, Ashley was walking back to her room eyeing me.
She looked at me questioningly, probably because I had a huge smile across my face.
“What?” I asked, walking toward the suite door.
“Where are you going so happy? Did this morning go well?” she asked, causing me to stop by the door knob.
“I just love life, but yea things went well this morning… Yea, pretty sure. Uh, Harry and I are just gonna go out and walk around a bit today. If you wanna come you can?” I shrugged during the last question biting my lip, and I knew she knew I wanted her to say no. Obviously not because I didn’t enjoy her company, but because I wanted to be with Harry alone as much as I could this week.
“Oh, no that’s fine. Thanks for inviting us though.” She laughed, adding air quotes around the word inviting.
I winked and said, “No problem! I’ll see you… tonight? Yea, most likely tonight because I’ll need to change clothes.” I confirmed.
“Well great. It’s nice to see you once a week.”
“Oh, be quiet! You see me more than that!” I waved a hand at her.
“Still, you know tomorrow we should have a girls day! We’ve barely spent time just us two all summer! You and I can do something, then Harry and Jake can go… play golf, the freaks.”
I couldn’t help but laugh. “That sounds perfect!” she was right, we barely had spent any time together. “I’ll see you later, lovely!” I told her, opening the door.
“Have fun with your man!” she nearly yelled at I walked out of the suite.
I shook my head as I shut the door and began walking towards Harry’s room. How did I get so lucky? I have the best friends I could ever ask for, and I have Harry, a silly boy who completely changed my life. I couldn’t be more grateful.
I reached Harry’s door, and slowly opened the door and peaked inside. His suite was dark, and he wasn’t anywhere in here so he’s probably in his room. I snuck to his bedroom and listened through the door. I could hear the clicks from the keyboard on his phone, so I decided maybe I should sneak up on him.
I opened the door quickly and shouted “Boo.” as I stuck my head in the door.
He was facing away from me, standing in front of the closet with a towel wrapped around his waist. When he jumped, he turned around, and horror covered his face. I couldn’t help but laugh, though as soon as he realized it was me, his face was normal again.
“Bloody hell! You scared the shit out of me.” He said, catching his breath.
“Well, I guess that’s what you get for not being ready!” I walked completely into the room and pointed to his towel. “You’re slacking, I said I was hungry!” I laughed.
“Didn’t think you were that seri- nope, you’re right. Just thought you would talk longer, I mean you usually do.”
“Oh, ha ha ha.” I spoke sitting on the edge of his bed. “Aren’t you proud though!”
“Very. What a major accomplishment.” He pulled out his underwear from the drawer and slipped them on before releasing the towel.
“Such a jerk.” I shook my head and laid back on the bed, waiting for him to get ready.
“Maybe.” He stated before walking into the bathroom and turning on the hair dryer.
I pulled out my phone and took a glance through my twitter. Huh? Beyonce release a new album without telling anyone? I guess that just proves how great she is doesn’t it?
I felt Harry lay down on me and remove my hand from over my face. He left a loud kiss on my cheek and nuzzled his head into my neck, leaving water all over the right side of my face. “Harry! I can’t breathe!” I managed to joke out! It’s not that he was heavy, I was just week.
He giggled against my neck before rolling off to the side. “Sorry love, just couldn’t help myself.” He laid there staring for a bit before a smile crept on his face. “Want to go eat?” he asked raising his eyebrows.
I left a huge smile consume my face before replying, “Yes.”
He got off the bed and held his hand out. “Alright,” he said pulling me off the bed, then to my surprise lifting me over his shoulder. I let out a scream as I smacked him in the bum. “Let’s go.” He said again, like it was nothing.
“Harry, put me down.” I tried to order, only gaining another laugh from him.
“Got your purse?”
“Yes,” I groaned… “Please put me down?”
He began walking through the suite and out the door before he answered, “I’ll think about it.”
I felt the smile begin to spread across my face, but I kept it slight when I pulled away to look into Harry’s eyes. Removing my arms from around his waist, I put them on the back of his neck and aimlessly began to up and down his neck. His eyes focused on mine, and I took this as a chance to study his green ones.
