Unlikely Beginning

Packing was a serious pain in the ass. It took me forever but it had to be done. As soon as we were done and ready to go we said goodbye to the beautiful house, the beach and Cancun. It was a vacation that I'd never forget but home was where I needed to be.

Getting to the airport took sometime but as soon as we arrived nosy paparazzi never failed us. They were right on time. Flashing lights blurred my vision as someone, I assumed Harry, guided me through the cameras. A hand rubbed the small of my back in comfort, when I finally could see I saw that it indeed was Harry. Once checked in we boarded the plane and endured the long flight back home.

The minute I got home I managed to make my way up the stairs to my room. I didn't have time to even bring my suitcases in when my bed welcomed me with open arm. Before I knew it I had fallen into a deep sleep and didn't wake up till the foot of my bed sank in. I shot up to see it was Harry, my chest was heaving and he grew worried. I was having a nightmare and the sudden movement on my bed made me feel like I was falling. The adrenaline made me want to get up and shake the feeling away but I stayed still. Harry crawled onto my bed over to me bring his arms tightly around me.

"I'm sorry I scared you." He whispered softly into my ear as I leaned back to where my back was pressed against his chest. I laced my fingers with his.

"It's okay. How long was I asleep for?"

"A few hours now. I missed you so I came to wake you up." He chuckled a little and I couldn't help but smile.

"Are you staying?"

"Well Niall passed out in Mackenzie's room about the same time you did and the guys are taking up your couch. So I suppose if you don't mind, I'll sleep here?"

I acted shocked sitting up to face him with both hands over my chest. "Excuse me? I don't just let random guys sleep in my bed!"

He played along, "oh pardon me miss but I really need somewhere to sleep. The floor isn't being friendly to my back." He started to bat his eyelashes at me and pout making his bottom lip quiver.

"Okay fine! But only for tonight." The second my sentence left my mouth he tackled me, falling back down on my bed causing me to laugh hysterically. It must of been contagious because Harry started to laugh as well. He was so cute I couldn't help but pinch his cheeks.

When he started to speak he was still laughing a bit, "Ugh I love you!" I could feel my heart stop and the palms of my hands start to sweat.

Did he just say what I think he did? He did. I laid there numb. No words, everytime I opened my mouth to say something I quickly shut it.

"Shit! I'm sorry." Harry quickly jumped up to his feet and before he could let me stop him he left my room.
