Goodnight Moon.
Did I say play?
Harry's POV.
"..but why a moon?" she asked me.
"Well you don't remember this, but I told you last night. It's basically like...like." I began stuttering more nervous telling her the truth now that she was sober and aware.
"Babe, you can tell me. I'm not going to laugh..." she told me reassuringly as she grabbed my hand.
"It's like...you're my moon. You light up my bad days. You see past my bull shit. You know there's more to me that what everyone else see's. When I am in my darkest moments..you're there;lighting up my night sky." I told her as a soft smile creeped upon her lips.
"You're the best thing that I've ever had in my hands." She told me as she looked down at our fingers intertwined. I then pulled the back of her hand to my lips and kissed it.
"So you don't think it's lame? I just figured..I mean I know your mom and Jayci call you Sunshine..I just wanted something of my own." I told her.
"No, I think it's perfect. I love it and I love you." She told me as we sat there. "You know what else I love?" she asked.
"What is that babe?" I asked her staring at her mischievous smile.
"I love your arms." She told me as she graced my biceps.
"I love your lips." She told me as she softly placed a kiss on my lips.
"I love your dimples." She told me as she poked them.
"I love your heart." She told me as she placed her hand over my heart.
"and I love love love my Louis Vuitton bag you got me!" she told me as she cradled her new bag causing me to laugh at how silly she was.
"You're a nutcase." I told her causing her to smirk and kiss my nose before she stood up on her feet. "You all packed baby?" I asked her.
"Yeah. So are you. As much fun as I had this weekend I am so ready to go home." She told me as she layed on our bed.
"Me too. I'm ready to take you home so I can play with you in bed all day." I told her mischievously.
"Play?" She said to me as she raised her eyebrows.
"Did I say play? I meant lay!" I told her even though she knew what I meant.
"Yeah yeah." she said almost impatiently. I'm pretty sure I just hit a nerve.
Ashlynn's POV.
"Me too. I'm ready to take you home so I can play with you in bed all day." he said to me with a smirk on his face making me nervous. As much as I loved Harry..I just don't think I was ready for all of that.
"Play?" I said before feeling dry in my throat.
"Did I say play? I meant lay!" He told me winking at me. I knew exactly what he meant. As much as he deserved to get some from me especially after giving me these beautiful presents I just don't know.
"Yeah yeah." I said to him noticing how standoffish I was really being now.
I walked away from him to open my duffel bag to put my shampoo and toiletries in it. I had to tell Harry, but when we get home.
My thoughts and anxiety was interrupted by Eleanor barging in through our door.
"Hey Kids, trucks are getting loaded. You two love birds ready?" she asked us both noticing the slight awkwardness in the room.
"Yeah, I'll take them down right now!." Harry said to her as her grabbed our bags and left the room.
"Woah..nice bag!" El said to me as she noticed my new LV sitting on the bed. "What happened?" she asked now noticing my stillness.
"Harry made a quick joke about "Playing with me in bed when we get home" and it just made me uncomfortable I guess." I told her as I leaned against the frame of the bed.
"You still haven't talked to him about it?" she said as if she expected something different from me.
"No. I was going to but then he gave me these amazing gifts. Now I almost feel obligated to do the nasty with him to satisfy him after he totally went over the top with my gifts.." I told her more confused than ever.
"Give Harry some credit Ash. Just talk about it when you both get back to your flat. Ok?" she looked at me giving me the most sincere and honest look ever , almost as if she was getting onto me.
"You're right. I'll talk to him when we get back to London." I told her scared.
"Good. Let's go to the cars so we can go home, yeah?" She said to me as she grabbed my hand and led me down the stairs to Harry's Range Rover.

Harry's POV.
After dropping Louis and Eleanor off at their flat and saying our goodbyes Ashlynn and I got back in the car and I could tell she was a bit distant. Honestly, I never knew how to approach Ashlynn when she was being this way; I never knew if it was something I did or said or something else that was bothering her and I never wanted to ask because I was always afraid of making things worst. I grabbed her hand when I pulled out onto the road and she truned her head towards me and gave me a half smile.
"Your place or mine?" I asked her hoping to get some sort of reaction from her.
"Uhm. Mine please. I miss my bed and have some work I need to catch up on." she told me in a monotone voice that now had me more worried than before.
We sat in the car in silence for a few minutes before I finally broke it hoping to start a conversation with her.
"We have to go back to New York later in the week..maybe you'd like to go with us?" I told her while suggesting my great idea at the same time. There would be nothing more I would love than to take my girl to New York for a few days.
"Uh..maybe. Just really depends on work and stuff. Don wants to have a meeting tomorrow about some new project he wants me to lead." she told me. I sat there a bit disappointed that I knew from here on out work would have her really busy, but at the same time very proud of her for working so hard and following her dreams.
"Right..well if you can, I'd love to have you there with me." I told her as we pulled up to her building.
"We will see." is all she said as she got out of her side and went to the back and got her bag. I went to grab her bag from her but when I did she resisted and held onto it.
"It's ohkay. I got it.Thank you for this weekend and my beautiful gifts and for driving me home." she told me as she kissed my cheek and walked towards the building door.
"You're welcome. I love you." I told her hoping she would say it back.
And she didn't...all she did was turn back at me and smile.
"..but why a moon?" she asked me.
"Well you don't remember this, but I told you last night. It's basically like...like." I began stuttering more nervous telling her the truth now that she was sober and aware.
"Babe, you can tell me. I'm not going to laugh..." she told me reassuringly as she grabbed my hand.

"Yeah. So are you. As much fun as I had this weekend I am so ready to go home." She told me as she layed on our bed.
