Parallels Intertwined

Chapter 6

Bri woke up with his arm still draped around her waist and his face inches away from hers, she shuffled around a bit trying to adjust herself. She slowly whispered in doubt to herself 'did last night actually happen?' To which Harry whispered back in a hoarse voice "yes it did and please stop shuffling your making things very hard!" he grunted creating a little gap between them.

Bri turned cherry red, luckily for her, he couldn't see her face. "turn around then let me hold you!" He obliged immediately and since he always preferred to be the little spoon in this equation, she wrapped her arm around his torso and he lifted it, planted a kiss at the back of her palm, and placed it back around his waist "oh by the way I was too preoccupied holding you close yesterday to say this but you looked stunning last night." She gently kissed his back and laid her head against his back and went back to sleep.

Hours later she woke up to the distant noise which was her alarm going off for the last ten minutes. Tapping Harry out of his slumber, she faintly mumbled "Harry we need to start getting ready to leave", she then slipped out of bed and looked at Harry shuffling in bed trying to get up and give a goofy smile to her as she walked back to her room.

They both freshened up and got ready to leave. Bri cleaned up the room and placed her bag in the living room. Dressed up in baggy jeans and a mustard striped top and her sneakers from last night. She then cleaned up the kitchen and placed the garbage in the trash bin. She picked up her bags, went to the car, and placed them in the boot.

Going back in she saw Harry dressed up in black jeans and a loose baby blue T-shirt with his bag in hand waiting to roll. 'Morning!' He chirped kissing her cheek even though it was noon with a raspy voice, 'Morning! Styles', she went along with it. "I've already placed my bags in the boot and I got some fruits for the drive so whenever you're ready to leave we can."

'Let's go then', giving a little pat on her back walked out the front door. She checked the house one last time and locked the door behind her. She went next door, to give back the keys, had a little conversation and she settled the bill, hugged her, and said goodbye.

"Could I drive for a while?" he asked hoping she would let him, she flung the keys towards him. Walked to the other side and got in. Strapping themselves in, turning the radio on, and switching on the GPS and car to go back to reality.

She sang loudly at times out of tune while Harry played the beat on the steering wheel...popping some blueberries and skittles as they got closer to their destination. With fifteen minutes to spare to reach the hotel Harry's phone buzzed, he put it on speaker so it would be easier to talk and Bri turned off the radio.

'Hey, Harry on your way back?' His manager asked.

'Yeah man approximately 10-15 minutes away he said looking at the GPS, why wassup!'.

'So I got to inform you that Paps are here surrounding the hotel so the staff informed me about an underground route to get back in, I'll be sending you the coordinates so follow that and I'll see you soon!' The man exclaimed.

'Alright! Thank you cya soon'...Harry said cutting the call. He gave Bri a bittersweet smile "I guess we should switch" and Bri nodded releasing that 'she stepped into reality soon than she wanted to', so they stopped at the side of the road, switched places, rerouted their GPS, and left.

To cut the silence of reality, Bri asked Harry if he could take her bag up so she could go and give the rented car back and he happily agreed. Before they entered into the tunnel they rolled their windows down and played the radio at its loudest and sang along as loud as they could. After coming into the underground parking lot Harry took out the bags and hugged Bri through the window "I'll cya upstairs", 'sure', she kissed his cheek and drove out the normal way.
