Woman [h.s.]

Five

Cambria

Walking out of the bathroom, I come back to an empty bedroom. I wasn't excepting Harry to be in the room but, I still started to spiral until very faintly I can hear Save Me a Place by Fleetwood Mac playing from downstairs. I laugh to myself knowing how Harry knows how much I hate Tusk. I walk down the stairs and look over to the kitchen only to see Harry's shirtless back to me singing along to the song, while stirring a pot on the stove.

Guess I want to be alone And I guess I need to be amazed Save me a place Harry sings out holding the spoon to his face, I laughed out and he turns around looking at me with a smile, he holds out his arm signaling me to come over to him, grabbing his hand I'm dragged over to Harry  and we both sing out the lyrics.

"I hope you aren't lactose or anything." Harry says reaching his hand up to my face to brush a piece of hair out of my face.

"I'm not don't worry." I say back to him smiling backing away to go sit down at the counter I ask him what he's making, I don't get a response till I sit down in the chair. I look up at Harry to see him just staring at me smiling, embarrassed, I tuck a piece of my hair behind of my ear and smile.

"Why are you looking at me like that?" I chuckle and ask Harry nervous I might have something in my teeth, or I just look like an idiot.

"You're just very pretty." Harry says looking at me with a toothy grin then turning back around to stir the pot of mystery food. 

I've never been good at receiving compliments, I'm very insecure which I know I have no reason to be, deep down I know I'm a beautiful woman, but in school no one would ever talk about my body or looks in a good way, they always pointed out my flaws. Mitch just always told me it's their insecurities and jealousy of me doing the talking, I know he's probably right but it honestly really fucked up my self esteem and how I look at myself.

Snapping me out of my thoughts, Harry sits down a bowl of mac and cheese  in front of me and sits down next to me. I look over to Harry and smile.

"How did you know Mac and Cheese is my favorite food?" I ask him with a smile Harry looks at me with his cheeky smile and shrugs his shoulders.

"Honestly, I had no idea." He says with a chuckle and rubs his nose. "Mac and Cheese is my favorite food, so I was just hoping you liked it as well." 

For the next little bit while we eat we just talk about our favorite things, and honestly play a version of 20 questions.

"Ok my turn." Harry says as I lay my feet on top of his thighs. We managed to migrate our way over to the couch after we ate to be more comfortable since mr. boujee ass said and I quote, "Those chairs aren't really for sitting on, more for decoration." 

"If you could be any animal which one would you be?" he asks me, and right away I know my answer. I laughed because it's honestly really embarrassing.

"Promise me you won't laugh." I tell him embarrassed to see what his reaction will be since I just know his is gonna be a fucking tiger or something.

"I won't, I promise now say it."

"A bunny." I say laughing and covering my face with my hands, embarrassed to see what his face will be like.

"Why are you so embarrassed of that?" I hear Harry asked with no emotion in his voice. I Look over to see him staring at my waiting for my answer.

"Well I'm not embarrassed about the animal itself per say, more about how I know yours is gonna be like a tiger or a shark, something cool and mines just a bunny." I say with a laugh, knowing this is the stupidest thing to be talking about.
