Alone

13

I woke up the next morning with a headache. I groaned trying to cover my head with my comforter to block the sunlight out from my vision. How did I get a hangover from just wine??

I felt for my phone in the comforters and found it before looking to see for any messages. I only found my mom's message letting me know that Harry informed her that I got in safe. I surprisingly didn't find any messages from Ashton. I groaned before finally getting up to use the bathroom, and going into the kitchen to feed Charlie.

"Hey baby! I'm sorry for getting up late." I cuddled Charlie only for him to push me away cause he wants the food rather than my affection.

"Okay fine!" I chuckled.

I texted Ashton asking if he wanted to get brunch only to get an "I'm busy right now." I rolled my eyes before going to get dressed and ready for my weekend off. I head into my room to my closet to pull out a summer dress and my favorite sneakers. I grabbed my tote bag putting my essentials before grabbing Charlies leash attaching it to his collar and heading outside.

"Great Charlie, I just remembered I left our car at mums." I sighed. I'm close to mums anyway. A little walk won't be too bad. I walked Charlie through the neighborhood passing the park Harry and I used to go to. I turned to look at the swings to find an adult sitting on one. I squint my eyes a little to maybe recognize them until Charlie decided to bolt almost dragging me along. I didn't get a hold on the leash out of surprise.

"CHARLIE NO!" I ran after him as he decides to run to the stranger on the swings. Turns out he wasn't a stranger.

"Harry?" I asked. I see Charlie sat in front of Harry as he started petting him. He looks up smiling. "Hello Bella, I wasn't expecting to see you and Charlie here."

"We could say the same. Sorry for intruding, We were actually on our way to my mums cause I left the car there. Was going to go into town." I sat next to him on the swing, watching Charlie lay on his back for belly rubs.

"What are you doing here Harry?"

"I was walking around trying to get some air and found this park. It felt familiar so I decided to hang out," He says swinging lightly. "Do you mind some company on your way to town today? I have nothing better to do." He asked. I don't see what's wrong in that, it's like forming a friendship once again since he doesn't really remember me. "Sure Harry, let's go." We got up and started our way to his street and I see my car on the driveway. My mum and Kim having tea on the porch. Charlie once again bolts to the porch.

"CHARLIE YOU NEED TO STOP DOING THAT!" I yelled after him. I hear Harry laugh behind me.

"It's okay love! He's just excited to see grandma!" My mom hollers. I shake my head laughing.

"Hey mumma, I was just coming by to pick up my car. We're going into town today." I tell her trying to get a hold of Charlie's leash.

"Oh okay, well let's go get your keys inside." I told Harry to wait for me outside while I go in with my mom. We walk in to the kitchen, her pulling my keys from the top drawer. "Did you eat already?"

"No, I was thinking of taking Harry to the diner, its been a while since we both saw Carla." I explained, leaning on the counter.

"Oh you should! I bet she misses the both of you."

I nodded thinking about the last time we both ate at the diner together. It wasn't the happiest memory.

"Yeah, well I'll be heading out. Is it okay if Charlie stays with you for a bit? I wasn't expecting to spend time with Harry-"

"Of course!! That is my grandbaby."

"Just don't over feed him mum, he's already too heavy." I sighed. My baby is getting too big.
