This morning I saw Tess for breakfast. It was honestly so amazing. We filled each other in about everything that had been happening to us recently. And of course, I told her all about Harry and the apartment. She stared back at me for a few minutes with her mouth wide open after I confirmed the rumours. She couldn't believe I had been hiding all of this. And thinking about it now, I couldn't believe I had come this far without saying anything. I guess I just didn't know what Harry and I were. I mean after the other night with him, I knew he felt the same. But i also knew, he had to leave soon and I didn't know what was going to happen then. I knew I had to talk to him about it, but I just wasn't ready for that conversation. After about chatting for about two hours, we went separate ways after I promised Tess she could meet Harry at my new place sometime soon. 

Harry had meetings all day today so it was just me, myself and I today. I think it was good that we had some time away from each other though. I mean, it prepared us for our future? I'm not sure if that sounds stupid. I mean do we have a future? Except... I was bored now. I had been cleaning my apartment since being home and even added some final touches to make it feel like home. Mum called me today to catch up and agreed that she could come over for dinner tomorrow night to see the place. Harry had been staying here every night since buying the place so I had to double check when he was home now. 

Baby, I won't be home until late tonight. I miss you 

My phone buzzed and instantly my heart was beating at the sight of his name. Although this was quickly followed by sadness when I realised I was alone for the rest of the day. Checking the time, it was only 3pm and I knew I wouldn't do anything productive at home so I decided to pop into work and see everyone and then do some shopping. 

The cafe was quiet when I walked in. I had been off work because of the move but was back next week. Margaret was in and instantly welcomed me in a hug as soon as I walked in. She bombarded me with questions before making me a hot chocolate. She even added baby marshmallows. I answered briefly but didn't confirm nor deny anything with Harry. That was another thing I had to talk to him about. After about half an hour of catching up, I left the cafe and headed to the local shopping centre. 

I wasn't really sure what I was shopping for. All I knew was after the last week, I wanted to treat myself. After being into about 50 shops, I sat down at the closest bench. I had about 6 shopping bags worth of new clothes, things for the apartment. I bought a few plants which are so fricken cute. I think I got a bit carried anyway and probably would've spent most of my savings. I bought Harry and I some red wine because really how could you ever have enough. I wanted to buy something for Harry to thank him for everything he had done for me recently but the man has everything. So I was stuck. I hadn't thought of anything to buy after walking a few laps. After looking around a little longer,  I decided to head towards the car. On my way out, I walked past Honey Birdette and thats when an idea came to me. It wasn't really a present but I'm sure Harry would appreciate it. I walked in to the store, and walked out with some new lingerie. It was black, lacy and sexy. Perfect. 

By the time I had unpacked all of my shopping, it was now 7pm. Harry would still be a few hours so I decided to hop into the shower. I definitely spent my time in there that's for sure. I shaved, exfoliated and applied everything that I could to make my skin soft. My phone buzzed from my bathroom vanity. I reached out to read it, knowing it would be Harry. 

Leaving now baby, see you in an hour. H

The butterflies started. He was going to be earlier than I expected. I jumped out of the shower and dried myself off. I had my new lingerie set hanging on the coat hanger. I walked out into my room and stood in front of my mirror. After moisturising and applying perfume and a little bit of makeup, I put on the lingerie. I looked at myself up and down. I felt sexy. I made sure all of my windows were closed in the apartment before walking out into the main room. I lit some candles, poured us both a glass of red wine and put some music on. Harry wouldn't be far now. I then walked back into my bedroom and put on my black, strappy heels. I was ready for him. Harry had his own keys so I sat down on the couch and waited.
