Chapter 55

Once Harry and I get back to is house we set our stuff down and sit on separate couches getting out our homework

"Oh that reminds me" says Harry as he looks at me

"What?" I ask as I look over at him

"I have some really good stuff that will help your eye" says Harry in excitement

"Really!" I sit up giving Harry every bit of attention I have. "what is it?" I ask

"I'm not sure" harry nervously laughs. "Its particularly for black eyes though"

"That would be amazing" I smile "how did you get it?" I ask

"Well like I said I used to"... harry pauses " Well I do get into a lot of fights" he laughs slightly and looks down at his lap.

I laugh "Yeah I've heard that a few times"

"actually my mum got it for me" he adds in quietly as were laughing

"oh" I reply and it gets silent

"At first I refused to use it, but then I got nailed in the eye with this kids foot and it turned out really bad." he stops
"it looked a lot like that actually" he says and points to my eye.
"But then I said fuck it, it cant get any worse so I put the cream on and it was almost gone the next day." he pauses
"I've been using it ever since."

I smile sincerely at him

"Sorry.." harry says and shakes his hair

"No no its fine" I stop him "I probably would of asked anyways" I laugh

Harry laughs as well. "Yeah you probably would have"
"Ok well lets put it on, the sooner the better, and it needs to sit overnight"

"Wait should I take off my makeup first?" I ask

"Ugh" Harry groans
"I forgot you girls put that shit on your face" he says and rests his head on the back of the couch in annoyance.

"It's not shiz!" I pause and Harry lifts his head up giving me the your so cute and childish smile probably due to the fact that I just said shiz.
"It makes me pretty" I add and look down

Harry gives me an 'I cant believe you just said that' laugh and says "You really think that's what makes you pretty?"

"Harry please just leave it alone?" I ask and Harry rolls his eyes in response.

"Just go take a shower and the come downstairs and we'll put it on"

"yes sir" I joke

I go to my room, aka one of the guest rooms and start the shower right away. I undress than get in with a huge smile on my face as I remember me walking in on Harry after he took his shower and the big cocky smile plastered on his face.

when I get out after like 30 minutes, (I tend o take long showers...) I grab a towel wrap it around my body, then wrap another one around my head because my hairs so long. Harry's most definitely going to say something about how long I've been in the shower

I grab a pair of underwear slide it on then look for something to wear. Oh my gosh I think to myself. I forgot pajamas.
Oh my gosh I'm such a mess!... I've been falling asleep in my clothes. Maybe Harry has something I can borrow.

I pace back and forth in the room not knowing what to do for about three minutes, and then Harry interrupts me by knocking on the door.

"Hello!, Alison?" he says against the door
"What the hell is taking so long, are you dead or something?"

I quickly open the door and stick my head out causing him to step back in fear

"Im fine!"

"Well hurry up!" he demands and starts to walk away.

"Wait" I blurt out
"Can I borrow some clothes?" I ask and Harry stares at me with confusion
"to sleep in" I acknowledge awkwardly

Harry grins
"Let me guess you forgot your pajamas and teddy bear."

I glare at him.

Harry raises his hands in defense
"ok ok touchy subject" he says and I try not to smile
"Let me just see what I can find here" he laughs and walks down the hall

"Make them soft please!" I add

"Don't push it."

I smile as I hear his accent from across the hall

I close the door and sit on the bed waiting awkwardly for Harry

A few minutes go by and then Harry knocks on the door holding a pile of all black clothes.

"thank you so much" I say as I grab the pile of clothes from Harrys hands.

"people don't really stay over much so you can just borrow my clothes." he says as I grab the clothes

"I'm so sorry, I can't believe-."

Harry interrupts me

"No don't worry about it I was just trying to tell
you I'm sorry that this is all I have"
before I can say something Harry continues.
"Um I gave you the longest shirt I could find because all I have is black boxers and I don't want you to feel uncomfortable.."

"Harry these are perfect thank you" I smile
"ill put these on and meet you downstairs"

"Okay cool" says Harry and starts walking away.

I close the door.

Wow that was awkward. Good job Alison. I hope things aren't awkward when I get downstairs. If I would have just remembered to bring PJs this would have never happened.

I unfold the clothes and find a black t-shirt, black boxer briefs, and a black pair of socks.

I hold the shirt up to my chest and smell it. It smells just like him. I get dressed quickly and look at myself in the mirror. I look like I'm glowing. I still look like Alison Gilbert with my long brown hair and brown eyes but I look so carefree. As I stare at myself in the mirror I realize that for the first time in a long time I actually like what's looking back at me
