The First To

Gloomy day or not so gloomy afterall

You know the drill. (Adriana is italic and Harry is bold.)

Adriana

I woke up with a headache. My eyelids felt stiff and heavy. Due to all the crying I did the night before. I started to remember everything about last night and how I cried myself to sleep. I wanted to cry again but what good use would that do? I opened my eyes slowly and how I regretted it. It was so bright for a second I thought I may have somehow ended up in a hospital bed. But, no I surely was in my bed in my own bedroom. I just don't recall opening the blinds nor packing suitcases. There was about three suitcases by the door.

I turned around to check the time on the clock. It was 7:20 in the morning on a Saturday. I wanted to go back to sleep but then came in Harry with a tray of food. Harry was here. That was all I could think about, that Harry was here.

I didn't realize that he was speaking to me till he started to wave his hands in front of my face. I shook my head and spoke up "excuse me love, what was that?" He smirked "I was telling you that I made you breakfast and that if you wanted a cuppa tea or coffee?" "A cuppa tea sounds marvelous, love" he smiled at me. Then he said that he would be back with my tea and to start eating my food.

I did as I was told and waited for him to come back with my tea. Meanwhile I walked into our bathroom to look for some painkillers to take this awful headache away. After taking them I walked back into the bedroom and sat down. Harry is here and there's three big suitcases by the door. Are we going somewhere?

I was snapped out of my thoughts when Harry came back in with my tea. He handed it to me and sat next to me. Not as close as I would have wanted to. He turned towards me and asked, "Hey are you busy today?" I started to get butterflies in my tummy. Maybe we are going somewhere. Maybe he wants to spend some together away from this busy city.

"No, why?" "Well you see I got some work to do in LA. I was wondering if you maybe wanted to go out to lunch with me before I leave." Oh he doesn't want to spend time. "yeah that sounds...great." Just great I whispered softly so only I could hear it. "Great. Also could you drive me to the airport?" "Yes." He kissed my cheek and head towards the bathroom. He called me over and asked me if I wanted lavender or raspberry gel bubbles to be put into the tub. I said lavender. "Come here, get inside. You look quite tensed and tired. Take this bath meanwhile I finish packing my things."

And just like that he was back in our bedroom finishing his packing. Before I got inside the tub I walked towards the sink to look at my face in the mirror. My dried tears on my cheeks were visible. Had Harry notice them? It was all I could think about. He surely must have.

I got inside the tub after taking my clothes off. I was pretty tensed but it's due from all the crying I have done the night before. I stayed in the tub for awhile until I felt that it was time for me to get out. I walked into our bedroom and changed. After I changed I walked down the steps to look for Harry. He was in the living room talking on the phone. He was whisper yelling into his phone. I don't know who he was yelling at on the other line or why. I just ignored it and waited for him in the kitchen.

I sighed as I looked out of our window in the kitchen. It was such a gloomy day as any other day we have here in England. I watched the people who lived across the street from us put up their lights for Christmas. It not even Christmas yet but I guess they like to start early. I turned around when I heard Harry say my name.

"Adriana we are having lunch in 20 mins because I leave in 2 hrs. I have to get there a bit early. So let's go." I just nodded and ran upstairs for a coat and my purse. I ran back down the stairs and to our front door. Harry was already inside his Range Rover. I locked up our door and walked to the car.
