Now it is my 13th birthday!
I am still short... And am about 5 inches shorter than Harry, and most of my class actually. People are a bit cruel, they sometimes say I look too chubby, that I am ugly. Thankfully harry defends me, he has always been there when I am in need, and I love him like a brother for that.
My dad never came back from that business trip all of those years ago... Just if you were wondering.
Harry is coming over now and I am getting ready to celebrate!
I have my brown hair natural and I have on a blue party dress and a bow in my hair with it half up and half down... Yes my mom did dress me. Sometimes she gets a little too excited for these things.
We were going to go out to a fancy pastry place with both of our families. Well really just our moms and Harry and I but still.
*ding dong*
My mom opened the door as I was going down the stairs and I saw Harry then I ran and hugged him!
"Happy birthday Lilly!" He had pink tulips for me... They were my favorite flower!... Yes we are only friends!
"Thank you Harry! Happy un-birthday to you!" I said quoting my favorite movie of all time, 'Alice in Wonder Land'
I grabbed my shoes they were dark blue flats then we left to the bakery place. We finally got their about 30 minutes later. Now I was ready to eat cupcakes... And get this dress off, its starting to itch everywhere.
We sat down at a table and the shoppe was really pretty! It was pink and blue and white it had little circle tables and metal chairs that you always see in France. And there were ones with only two chairs so me and Harry got one of those to our selves and there were two cupcakes delivered to us they said 'Happy b-day Lilly' in big pink lettering scattered across the top of the chocolate icing. I gave one to Harry and we ate them, they were messy and harry and i had finished with crumbs everywhere and our moms moaning and groaning over how messy we were. My mom took to my face with a blue napkin, wet with her saliva.
"mom, stop" i whined exaggerating both of the words while i looked over to harry who was getting the same attention from his mom. He looked just as uncomfortable as me, if not, worse.
Later that day me and Harry just hung out like usual, we were running around the forest and it still looked like it did when I was that shy little six year old. Me and Harry have come a long way since then, Harry likes to sing... Not in front of anyone else but me though, and I don't know why, he is so good, he says that when he is older he wants to be in a band and hopefully make a living out of it. I am scared though, i don't want my friend to leave, he is the only one who stuck around, sure i have people i chat with during classes i don't have with harry, but whenever i move up a grade or we don't sit next to each other we just stop talking. Harry has been there for years though. I don't want to see him go, so i made him promise to never leave me. Even if he gets famous and travels through Europe.
Me and Harry got tired and it was getting late so we went to the meadow near our houses and just talked and laid down in the grass, we found this place when we were 10 and claimed it ours. Harry sung me happy birthday on our way back to our houses and was being all goofy from sleep deprivation. He looked so silly, his now curly hair a bit of a mess and his smile crooked, it was nice to see him this way, and i hope it never changes. Crooked smiles, messy hair, and the pure truth of the moment. Harry and i had no secrets, there was nothing to loose, we didn't hide anything, that must be the only reason we are still friends, and i hope o keep it like this forever.
I went into my room that I had since I was six but it has changed quite a bit, as have I. It is now pink and blue and the dolls have been replaced be a homework desk and books, i love to read. Also I have a t.v. In my room and a computer. I had a little bit of remodeling in my room, i got a balcony outside of the giant window in my room that now stands as a sliding glass door. Also Harry has one but he has had his. I also got a walk in closet. My bathroom is now blue and white, my shower curtains are now blue and have little ducks on them, it is a bit cliche but i like the look of them in there.
Harry did our secret knock on the balcony door right after I got out of the shower... Nice timing Harold. I had became used to it over the years though, this happened a couple times a month and our parents had gotten used to it too, but they are starting to get suspicious that harry and more than friends, i doubt it will ever happen.
I got into my p.j.'s fast and opened the door to see a tired Harry. He walked in as I grabbed my brush to comb through my hair.
"I can't sleep!" He said while he made his way to my queen size bed and hopped right on in. He made himself at home easily by moving around the pillows and blankets of my newly made bed.
"Why?" I asked while stepping into the bathroom to brush my teeth.
"Gemma is having a slumber party with her friends and the music is too loud!" He said while trying to get comfy in MY bed! "Can I sleep here?" He asked while turning over on my bed and yawning.
"Sure why not there is plenty of room just get out before my mom wakes up, we aren't 10 anymore" I said as I got into my side of the bed, harry and i were front to front, he was already asleep but i couldn't help but look at his relaxed face, i am going to miss him, i don't want these late night slumbers to end but i have a feeling in my gut that they will end soon, that i wont be feeling the warm dent on the right side of me in the morning anymore.
I hope nothing changes and we always stay best friends forever! And Harry will always protect me. I never want to say good bye.
