Chapter 50

Alycia's Pov.

I woke up to sun shining through Harry's blinds, straight into my eyes

The sun wasn't on him because he was facing the opposite way. His lips were lightly parted and I could feel his breathe on my chest every time he exhaled. He's such a beautiful sleeper. His eyelids always move a bit in his sleep, i think he dreams a lot. His fingers always randomly twitch and squeeze me wherever he has a hold on me at.

He's so interesting to watch. It brings me peace. I don't tell him that though because he'd think i'm a fucking creep.

I slipped out of his arms as gently as I could and went to his bathroom to do all the regular morning things. I quickly pee'd, washed my face and brushed my teeth before I went downstairs.

Jake followed me so I fed him before I decided to start cooking. The clock on his microwave said 9:15am.

I looked into his fridge and saw he had bacon. I don't eat meat but I pulled out the bacon along with some eggs so I could cook omelettes and bacon for him and Jeff.

I pulled out some peppers, onions, cheese and tomatoes to put in them as well.

I hope Jeff even likes omelettes.

Just as soon as I started cooking the first one, Jeff walked into the kitchen.

"Goooodmorning Alycia." He said in a very chirpy voice and I chuckled. "Goodmorning. Do you like omelettes?" I asked and he nodded with an eager look. "Love." He said and I asked him what he wanted in them before I finished cooking the first one.

"I thought Harry was cooking." He said with a smirk and I chuckled. "Well, he's asleep. So I figured I'd get started on it." I told him and he nodded as he sipped a bottle of water.

I put the bacon on and finished cooking his omelette and put it on a plate with some bacon.

I sat Harry's plate on the slot above his oven because it's heated it keeps things warm. Boujee ass.

I finished mine and Jake was looking at me from the door to the backyard.

"Wanna eat outside? Jake has to go out." I asked Jeff and he nodded before picking up his plate and following me out.

Jake immediately took off and we sat on the lounge chairs. The sun was beaming down and it felt amazing out here.

"So Harry's seems to be infatuated with you." He said and I laughed shyly. "Does he? I can't tell." I teased and Jeff laughed.

"No but he really is. I know you two have had your issues, he tells me everything by the way, I feel like i'm his therapist. I don't mind it though. But yeah, I think Harry can be a little fucking dickhead sometimes but...the kid is crazy about you. Trust me." He said and I nodded with a smile.

Everything started coming back to me from my thoughts last night. So I decided to touch on it.

"So you know about Harry's...struggles." I said for confirmation and he nodded as he chewed. It was a sad nod and I felt the same.
