Curls and Caramel

Chapter 6

~ Izzy ~

I wake up to blinding light. I groan pulling over the covers over my face. Then everything from last night comes flooding back to me. I smile comes onto my lips when the memory of Harry kissing me comes to mind.

I go to my bathroom and look into the mirror. I don't look as bad as I thought I would. After I wash up I stay in my pj's. I decide to have a lazy. I skipped doing my homework so I'm going to have to do it later in the day. I almost trip down the stairs from my clumsiness. My cat looks at me at the bottom of the stairs.

"What?" I test. He just walks away unamused. I open the fridge and find some leftover pizzas. I put two on the plate. I sit at the counter and set out my homework. I know I'll be to lazy to do it tomorrow. The microwave beeps letting me know my food's ready. I grab my food quickly bitting into it to find out it's burning hot. I set it on the counter to let it cool off.

After finishing my homework that were surprisingly easy to accomplish, my phone rings. I walk over and answer it when I recognize the ID name.

"How was the date?" I smile again from the memory

"It was amazing," I say walking over to the couch. "He made me dinner and we sat on the couch just talking about random things." Carissa 'awws' into the phone.

"We may have kissed." There's a silence for a while before I hear a loud 'what!'.

"So he kisses on the first date? Interesting. Was he better than Eric?" My blood runs cold from the mention of his name. Eric is my ex-boyfriend and he was really sweet in the beginning, but he was a little to protective.

"Don't compare him to Harry. He's nothing like him." I defend a little harshly.

"Sorry. Well I just wanted to see how it went. I have to go now, bye." I say goodbye and hang up and I become engulf in silence. I want to text Harry but I don't want to come off touchy.

I go back upstairs realizing I didn't bring it down. I turn it on and see that I have a missed text from Harry.

Harry: "Hey I hope you slept well. I did :) x" I did sleep well because I had the best date ever.

Me: "I did actually :) did u?" He replied back quickly.

Harry: "Yep. did u want to hang out later? if u want to" 

Me: "Sure! you can come over if u want to :)" I really want a slow relationship. It's been a good three months since my break up with Dan.

Harry: "Alright. It's kind of lonely here anyway :) be there in 10" I don't bother to change so I just listen to my favorite songs to pass the time. Cupcake joins me on the couch sitting on my lap. I stroke his back earning a purr from him. 

"You wouldn't judge me if I went back into a relationship would you?" I asks him out of boredom and curiosity. He just turns his head starting at me with blue eyes. I shake my head at the fact that I just asked my cat something like that. 

The doorbell rings and I set Cupcake in the spot I was just in and quickly answer the door. Harry has his lips between his fingers and smiles when he sees me. He's wearing black jeans with holes in them and a plaid shirt.

"He Izzy." 

"Hey." He kisses me on the cheek. I step aside to let him in. 

"Still in your pajamas?" He asks looking at me up and down in my pink shorts and tank-top I shrug my shoulders walking back to the couch with Harry following behind. Cupcake goes back to his spot, my lap.

"You have a really adorable cat." Harry rubs Cupcake behind the ears.

"Thanks, I got him when when I was younger."
