Complicated

Chapter 10: Speechless

Kathy's POV

I stirred awake and smiled at the boy laying beside me.

He's mine. Damon Lovegood is actually mine. And no one else's.

I looked at him in his peaceful sleep. A strand of light brown hair covered his face, flowing lightly whenever he breathed on it. He didn't snore. He breathed evenly and peacefully. He does however, move. And he moves a lot. He almost pushed me out of bed last night, all while he was still asleep.

As if sensing my eyes on him, he opened his eyes and smiled.

"Hi stalker." He whispered and rubbed his eyes awake.

"Stop. I'm not a stalker." I pouted and he gave my bottom lip a gentle squeeze.

"You're watching me sleep." He pointed out.

"You just look so adorable, I couldn't help myself." I admitted shyly. He smiled and sat up to place a light kiss on my forehead. I sat up and glanced at the two empty beds in his room.

"Where's my brother and Al?" I asked.

"They probably found some girls or something." He shrugged and I nodded in agreement. I turned to check the time: 10 AM. Luckily it's Saturday. I don't run in the mornings on weekends. And we still have a little less than an hour to catch breakfast.

He stood up and went inside the bathroom, and I followed him in.

"I have no toothbrush." I claimed. He grinned and shook his head at me before digging inside his drawer and opening a fresh toothbrush, handing it to me. "Prepared, I see?" I teased.

"More hopeful." He shrugged and I smiled at him.

We brushed our teeth at the same time, and despite this being such a small thing, I don't know how people overlook it. It's such a simple thing that you do on an everyday basis, but when you do it with someone special, it makes the possibility of our relationship being long term seem more... realistic.

Just yesterday, we had a bet going on, and today... we're in a relationship. This is insane.

We finally finished brushing my teeth and I started to leave the room when he pulled my arm gently and wrapped his arms around my waist.

"Where are you going?" He asked me.

"I'm hungry, and I have to get some stuff from my room, and shower, and change." I listed off the things I had to do and already felt overwhelmed.

"Shower? It's a Saturday morning. Didn't you shower last night before the party?"

"How'd you know?"

"You smell really good." He admitted and I laughed lightly.

"Thank you. But I still smell like alcohol, I have to shower. But I'll be quick, you know I don't take long." He groaned but nodded.

"Fine, but as you shower I'll go bring us up some breakfast."

"Ok. Ready, set... go!" I giggled as I sped out in front of him and he smacked my ass playfully. We went our separate directions and I went to Ravenclaw, quickly solving the riddle and heading inside to my room. I fucking hate these riddles sometimes, seriously.

I was humming "Make Up" as I came into my room and closed the door beside me. I jumped when I felt someone jump on my back and I fell to the ground but immediately wrapped my leg around the intruder and flipped us so I was on top of whoever this was. I sighed in relief when I saw it was just Roxy.

"Ooo, you're a top. Bet Damon didn't expect that." She teased me and I smacked her arm before getting off of her and laying down next to her on the ground.
