One Plus One

Chapter Fourteen

My pulse instantly raced. Instead of Harry pulling away liked I'd expected him to, he placed a light kiss just beneath my ear.

"And I know you like me too." he added.

As much as my brain was telling me to, I couldn't deny it. Harry's hands slipped from my lower back to my bum. When I didn't pull him away, he gently cupped and squeezed, forcing a gasp from my lips. My right hand flew up to his curls, fisting them as he nibbled at the skin on my neck. I whispered his name as he sucked, teeth then grazing the skin. I winced slightly as he then kissed the newly sensitive skin. I guided his head away from my neck so that I could see his emeralds. They penetrated deep into my eyes. I could feel my legs beginning to fail me. I could no longer control my heartbeat. This time, I initiated the kiss. I did exactly what he had done to me. I traced his bottom lip with my tongue but he didn't deny my entry. I could feel his eyelashes brushing against my cheek as his lips moved against mine, his tongue desperately exploring my mouth.

Harry's lips then escaped mine. He used the hold he had on my bum to force our hips together. I could feel Harry's bulge becoming prominent through his jeans. I gasped at the rough contact, Harry pushing us extremely close.

I was about to kiss him again when a cold liquid made contact with my back, soaking me. I shrieked pushing Harry backwards as I jumped. I spun around to see a cup on the floor with no owner. The liquid that hadn't found me was on the floor. Harry inspected the back of my top, and when he took my hand in his and began to push through the crowd, I knew the sight wasn't pretty.

"Carly, take Marlie to your room and get her something else to wear, some idiot has thrown his drink all over her." Harry shouted to a girl he had introduced me to earlier.

She nodded and took my hand from him and began to lead me away. I wondered how much bigger the house was going to get. There seemed to be an infinite number of rooms. When we finally reach the end of the corridor, Carly pushed open a door and felt around for the light switch. I almost collapsed at the sight when the lights flickered on. I stood frozen in the doorway. Her room was practically the size of my whole upstairs.

I was dragged inside before Carly disappeared into yet another room. No doubt a walk in wardrobe. She came out holding a choice of three dresses. They were all amazingly pretty but so drastically different from anything I'd ever wear.

"Haven't you got any tops?"

"You are not wearing a top. Not when I've just seen you with Harry. You will blow his mind if you wear a dress."

I began to blush. I'd forgotten we'd been surrounded by people during our heated embrace in the middle of the dance floor. I was still reluctant to take one of the dresses from her, even though the thought of denying Harry what he'd want when he saw me in a dress gave me a slight rush.

"Marlie, Harry doesn't keep his eyes locked on a girl for long. He must really like you to have kept up with you. And by the way you're looking at me, he hasn't fucked you yet so you really must be special."

My stomach lurched at her way of words. Even though there was some comforting ones in there, some of them filled me with disgust.

"Just try one on. If you don't like it, we'll find something else."

HARRY'S POV

Marlie had been gone almost half an hour. I had never understood the female mind. My sister and mum were exactly the same. They took forever to get ready so when I moved away and got my own place it was a relief. Plus, I didn't have them on my back making sure I'd sprayed deodorant and put on clean boxers every day.
