Summary: Both Y/n and Harry have a rare night off. Y/n has relaxing plans for how they should spend it.

Howdy! I came up with the very fluffy concept because I crave emotional intimacy, so I hope you like it!!!!

Chapter Warnings: cursing ig. otherwise just a lot of fluff and taking a bath together 🥰


Y/n was feeling lonely.

Her boring ass office job didn't produce too many friends for her. While the people she worked with weren't the absolute worst, they were just, well, bland. Their lives were cookie-cutter. The closest thing any of them had experienced to a true adventure was a trip to IKEA. Her two best friends, Maria and José, were across the country, since she had moved from one coast to another to live with her boyfriend. Sure, she could FaceTime them, but it just wasn't the same. And after the call, she knew she'd just be more lonely than before.

Harry wasn't an option either. He was working, far too hard for her liking. She understood, of course; it was album crunch time. He had to make all of the last minute decisions: finalizing the tracklist, photoshoots, and touch-ups on the chosen tracks in the studio. But she missed him. The only times she saw him anymore was right before bed, when he would stumble into the room sleepily and kiss her forehead before going right to sleep. So yeah, she was a bit lonely. And being alone on her day off wasn't exactly the plans she wanted to have.

Luckily, the universe decided to answer her pleas. At around 1:00, after she had finished up a late shower, her phone buzzed with a text from her beloved.

H: Hi, baby! The only thing we have left on the agenda today is touching up a couple of the album tracks, so I should be home a bit earlier :D If you'd like, I can pick up some dinner on the way home.

She couldn't help the huge grin that spread across her face. For the first time in ages, the two of them could finally have some time together! Maybe she could do something nice for him! He had been working so hard lately, he deserved it. And honestly, she did, too. An idea popped into her head, and she threw open the bathroom closet, taking a look through her bath supplies. She grinned triumphantly as she pulled out a citrus bath bomb, knowing that Harry enjoyed the calming scent of orange and lemon. A nice bath would not only help Harry destress, but it would also be the perfect cure to the loneliness that was settling in her heart. She quickly texted Harry a reply as she set the bath bomb aside.

Y/n: Sorry about the wait, babe, was just taking a shower. Forgot to this morning lol

He answered pretty much right away, making her smile.

H: It's okay, baby! No need for apologies :)

Y/n: Okay! I'm excited to actually get to spend some time with you! I could really go for curry, if you're up for Indian takeout.

H: Curry sounds good to me! I'll probably be home between 6 or 7! I have to go now, but I can't wait to see you :) I love you so much!!!!

Y/n: Can't wait to see you, either, Har!!! I love you, too 💕💕

"Baby, 'm home!"

Y/n looked at the clock. It was 7:30, a bit later than what Harry had said through text, but still much earlier than usual. She leapt up from the couch and sprinted to the front door, tackling Harry in a hug. He laughed loudly and wound his free arm around her waist, not fully able to hug her back because of the takeout bag in his arms.

"Let me put the food down so I can give y' a proper hug."

She let go with a small pout on her face, which Harry promptly kissed off while setting the bag down. He then wrapped her in a tight, two-armed embrace. She melted at the contact, resting her head on his chest and hugging him back just as tightly. He leaned down and kissed the top of her head, then rested his head on top of hers.
