Breaking Boundaries

They Think Were Something Were Not

I exit the shower and wrap my pink towel around my body. The cold air immediately hits my body which cause goosebumps to form all over my.

I walk up to the mirror and examine my body. What I do all the time. I pull the rubber band off my wrist and tie my hair into a bun so that the water won't drip.

My hand finds my purple toothbrush and I pour toothpaste onto it getting ready to brush my teeth. As the toothbrush meets my mouth, in walks Harry not even acknowledging the fact I'm in the bathroom almost naked!

I start at him with a confused 'what the fuck' look on my face but it seems to not catch his attention until I clear my throat. He instantly looks at me through the mirror and a huge smile grows on his face.

"What's up Maya." He said looking back down grabbing his toothbrush.

"What's up? Harry I'm almost naked and you just barge into the bathroom like no ones in here except for you!" I yell at him as he just laughs at my reaction.

"It's not like I can see any of your goodies Maya." He said while brushing his teeth. I opened the door and pushed him out as he just laughed. Once he was out the bathroom, I gave him a sarcastic smile then tried to close the door when he stuck his foot between the door so I wouldn't be able to close it.

"What Harry?" I say more annoyed then I was before. He stuck his face into the door as mine was just inches from his.

"Nice tits by the way." I looked down at me and my chest was showing! I guess my towel must have slipped down without me noticing. My cheeks instantly turn pick as I pick my towel back up and look at Harry but he was gone.

I swear I have a weird step brother.

I walk downstairs where I see my mom, Jeff and Harry sitting down. There attention turns to me as I entered the room.

"Hey sweetie." My mom kissed my cheek and went to sit back down patting the sit right next to her so I can sit down to. Once I sit, she smiles and looks at me.

"Harry's going out for grocery shopping and I think that'll be a good time for the two of you to bond as brother and sister." I look over at Harry as he mouthed "wasn't my idea" to me.

So I just laugh and shake my head up and down agreeing to go out with Harry for groceries since to his father, we have to be Siamese Twins.

I reached for the bread on my tippy toes but I still couldn't reach it. I sucked my teeth as I turned to ask Harry for help but he was no where to be found. "Ahem."

I turned around and jumped when I was faced with Harry's chest. I immediately hit it playfully.

"You scared the shit out of me Harry!" I said grabbing the bread from his hand and throwing it into the cart.

"Well I saw you having trouble so I decided to be nice today and help you." He smiled widely as I started to push the cart down the next isle. I pulled the list of groceries. My eyes scan for the next word that was under bread and it was... Eggs.

I turned the cart around fast as I heard a groan come from Harry. I look up instantly and see Harry with his eyes shit tightly holding his area. I run to him as he groans from the pain.

"Oh my god Harry! What did I do?" I said freaking out by his reaction.

"You hit me with the cart." His voice was very low and raspy as he spoke which sent goosebumps all over my body.

"What can I do?" I said trying my best to help Harry any possible way I could. I watched as smirk appeared on his face as he looked at me.

"You can rub it to make me feel better." My cheeks instantly turn red as I push him away laughing loudly. I just give him my hand to help him up from the floor to not cause any more if a scene.

"Better luck next time Hazza." I said standing on my tippy toes and shuffling my hand through his curls. I went back to the cart and started to walk with Harry right next to me as we laughed.

"But I'm so serious Maya. The least you can do is rub it."

"Harry can you pass me the chips?" I say as the cashier rings up the other items. Harry just looks back and forth between the chips and me as I held my arm out trying to grab it since Harry wouldn't.

"Harry! It's right there! Pass it to me now!" I watched as Harry smirked as if this was a game to him.

"Make me." I suddenly stop my feet as I walk over to him to grab but chips but he takes the chips and throws them onto the belt letting the cashier ring it up. I just playfully roll my eyes at Harry as I walk back with Harry following behind me. My eyes stay locked on the screen as the cashier finished ringing all the items up.

"You guys are a very cute couple." The cashier said. I look over at her to see who she was talking to and of course she was talking to me and Harry. My cheeks turn red just because she thought that me and Harry were together.

"What makes you think were together?" I say to the cashier, handing her to money to pay for the items we've just bought.

"Everything. The two of you are always laughing and joking around with each other and it's cute. I haven't seen a couple like you two in a while." Harry pulled his arm around me tucking me under his arm as he looked down and smiled at me. By the way his face expression was, he was taking what the cashier said as a compliment.

"No, me and him are just..... Siblings. He's my brother." The cashier looked up at the both if us to see if we were kidding but my face expression was very serious as Harry was doing something on his phone.

"Oh I'm so sorry! You guys just looked very ... You know... Happy and it just...... It seemed...... Oh I'm just sorry. You guys are just..... You know what, forget what I said." She handed me the change back without looking me in the eye.

"Have a nice day." I gave her a genuine smile as Harry grabbed the bags and we walked away with Harry's large arm still around me. He leaned down to me as his brown, silky curls tickled my face. Shivers came down my spine as his lips grazed my ear lobe.

"You heard that? Were a very cute couple."
