Life Goes On (Harry Styles Fanfic)

Chapter 15

The next morning, I wake up later than I normally do. I usually need to get up pretty early for my classes but I'm thankful that today is Saturday. I've had such a long week and I've finally had a chance to get some rest. As soon as I'm about to get out of bed, my phone buzzes,

11:48pm
Mom: Hey sweetie, I miss you. I was thinking about driving down there tomorrow to see you!

It's barely been a week since I've seen her and she already misses me.

11:50pm
Kira: I miss you too:) sounds great, I'll see you then x0x0

I'm so glad that my mom and I have a very strong bond because I don't know where I'd be without her. After checking my phone for any new messages, I put it away and walk over to my small dresser. I don't really have any plans today but I don't feel like staying in my pajamas. I'm too lazy to shower right now so I decide to wear a pink spaghetti strap shirt with a pair of black leggings. I leave my hair in loose waves from the night before but braid the top part like a headband so it's out of my face. I decide to put on minimal makeup just in case I do decide to go out today. Once I finish, I turn on the tv and scroll through the channels to occupy myself for a while. There isn't really much to do around here so I guess this is as good as it's going to get.

After about 1/2 a jar of peanut butter and 10 episodes of friends later, I hear the doorknob rattle. Who could it be? I quickly stand up and cautiously watch the door. Once the door opens, I'm extremely relieved when I see Toria walking in with what looks like a bouquet of roses and chocolates.

"Hey!" She chirps and accidentally drops her box of chocolates."damn it" she says and shuts the door with her foot because both of her hands are occupied.

"Here let me get that for you" I giggle and walk over to pick up the heart-shaped box.

"Thanks" she says with a smile and I nod.

"Soo who are these from?" I say with a smirk while pointing to the roses and chocolates that she just placed on her bed.

"Liam!" She says while clapping her hands and jumping up and down. I smile because I already knew the answer. I'm so happy for her.

"The flowers are beautiful" I say and she smiles in response

"I know roses are my favorite, especially these red ones!" She says excitedly and smells them. "Are they your favorite too?"

"They're very pretty but sunflowers are at the top of my list" I say and point to the two sunflower paintings that are hung on the walls.

"I probably could've guessed that" she giggles and takes another whiff of her flowers. "Did you paint those?"

"Yeah" I answer and she widens her eyes, not expecting me to actually say yes.

"What! No fucking way!" She shouts and I laugh at the way she's freaking out. "Kira they're really good! What else can you do?"

"Um well I've been painting since I was 7 so I could paint pretty much anything, I just need the inspiration" I say and she praises me some more. I appreciate how much she likes my paintings because it honestly makes me so happy to know that I'm actually good.

"You're so talented" she says while arranging the bouquet of flowers on her nightstand.

"Thank you" I smile and sit on the bed. "So, do you have plans today?" I ask and she shakes her head while placing her clothes in her dresser.

"Nope, well at least not this second"

"Would you like to go do something, like watch a movie and have lunch somewhere?" I say and she smiles. I realized yesterday that I need to spend some time with her because I didn't know that it affected her so much. To be honest, I thought she would be relieved if I didn't hang out with her, but I was wrong.
