Heart Breaker in Manhattan (H.S)

Chapter 28

Liv's POV

It was three days in to our stay in Holmes Chapel, when I decided to tell Harry how I felt. I'd been thinking about telling him since the second he came down into the kitchen the first night we arrived. Everyone was out, and we decided to stay at the house as we hadn't had a day to ourselves since before he left for your, and no I don't count the eight hours in the hotel after the show at MetLife Stadium or the three hour drive here.
We were sitting on his childhood bed, under the covers, all covered up and watching old episodes of Beverly Hills 90210.
I don't know why we were watching it to be honest; I guess I was just feeling reminiscent and missing my sisters. This was a TV show we watched all the time.
"So do we watch another episode?" Harry asked, as we finished the disk. I think we were two discs in to the fourth season, no we didn't start from season one, we just started from season four for some reason
"Up to you," I told him, "I'm quite comfortable here, so I don't really want you to move and neither do I,"
"Oh really? Is that so?" He asked, turning to face me; he leaned his face closer to mine and kissed my nose
"Yeah," I smiled, and he kissed my mouth, I gave him a quick peck back
"So do you wanna just lie here then?" He asked
"At least for a little while, it's cold outside, and I haven't had winter in over a year,"
"Oh I thought maybe I could persuade you into doing something else," he grabbed my butt, while he entertained our legs and kissed my neck, I giggled
"Oh god I love you," I said absent-mindedly
"What was that?" He asked, moving his face from my neck and trying to look me in the eye; I looked away purely because I just realised what I said
"Oh nothing," I still looked away
"Liv, tell me," he whined, "I know you're lying," and he began to tickle me
"Harry," I said through giggles, "oh my God! Harry stop," I couldn't control my laughter anymore, "okay, okay. I'll tell you,"
"Tell me," and he kissed my cheek
"I love you," I said and immediately regret it after wards, because for what felt like forever he just lay there. Completely silent. Staring at me and I instantly regretted saying those eight letters, those three small words; that could honestly make or break us
"I love you too," he said really quietly; that I thought I miss heard it
"I completely understand if you don't feel the same..." I was cut off by a chaste yet sweet kiss to my lips
"I said I love you too,"
"Oh thank god," I sighed out of relief
And then he kissed me. Hard
"You don't know how long I've wanted to say that to you," he told me between kisses
"Really?" I smiled shyly
"Yeah, since I asked you to be my girlfriend," I kissed him again

Three hours later everyone else came home and Harry and I were still cuddled up in his bed. Since we confessed our feelings for each other we hadn't watched anymore of the TV show.
All of a sudden we heard a knock on the door; safe to say Harry and I were not in a presentable state to speak to anyone. With out waiting for a reply the door opened and Gemma walked in. I pulled the sheet up as high as I possible could, hoping to cover up that I was naked under neath, but that was no use as our clothes were thrown all over the bed or on the floor, "oh my god," she said, her voice full of shock, "I'm so sorry, um dinners ready," she walked out the door
"Okay Gem, we'll be down in a second," as soon as the door was closed I hid my head in Harry's chest
"Oh my god, that was more embarrassing than meeting El for the first time,"
"Don't worry about it babe," he kissed my hair
"How can I not," I said, "your sister knows what we got up too,"
"Hey look at me," he said, and I looked up, "I love you,"
"I love you too," I told him
"And my sister would've expected what happened,"
"But still,"
"She knows how we feel about each other," he explained, "and it's not like we're fifteen and doing this,"
"I guess," I gave in, still embarrassed
"We should get dressed," he told me, "I'm taking you out tonight,"
"Okay," I smiled. I gave him a quick kiss, and got ready

"So what did you two get up to today?" Gemma asked with a smirk, as we sat down for dinner and I couldn't help but blush
"Oh nothing much," Harry said, "just watched some show from the nineties most of the day,"
"Among other things," Gemma smirked again, "judging by what I saw,"
"Gem please," Harry groaned
"Oh what H?" She laughed, "don't want mum to know what you got up to?"
"Gemma," Anne warned, "stop now, not while we're eating,"
"Fine," she threw her hands up in surrender
"Besides they're both adults," Robin added, "they know what they're doing," this conversation was getting seriously embarrassing.
My cheeks were heating up, at the conversation topic, and Harry places a comforting hand on my knee, "hands above the table," Gemma said
"Gem," Harry warned his sister, "I'm not doing anything, unlike you whose embarrassing both my girlfriend and myself,"
As embarrassing as this was, I really did love they way they interacted with each other. If I was an outsider looking in at this family dinner of sorts, I would personally have fallen on the floor in hysterics at the way Gemma was teasing myself and her younger brother.
