Behind The Mask II Harry Styles #Wattys2015

Chapter 24

Alyssa's P.O.V.

It was now 5:00 in the morning and Harry and I had been working all night packing. We packed up the living room, kitchen, bedroom, and bathroom. Now we were putting all of the boxes into Harry's car. I was about to collapse with exhaustion I had already worked all day at the coffee shop and I had never stayed up all night before. Harry put the last box in his car and closed the trunk.

"Phew." He sighed, wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"Now I just need to return my key." I said. He nodded and walked with me to the lobby. There was a brunette girl working at the desk and I didn't recognize her. She smiled at me.

"Hello. How may I help you?" She said.

"I'm just here to turn in my key." I said.

"Alyssa?"

"Yep." I handed her the key and left with Harry. It was kind of sad to know that I would never see my apartment again. I was too tired to think about that though. I followed Harry out to his car and we both got in.

"Thanks so much Harry. For everything. I don't know what I need to do to make it up to you. You have done so much for me. You've done more for me than anyone else has ever done. Thank you for that." I said. He smiled at me showing off his dimples.

"Your welcome, Alyssa." He said, kissing my hand. I blushed and looked out the window to hide my face.

"I've never been to your house before. How far away is it?" I asked.

"About 25 minutes." I nodded. We were driving for 25 minutes and we were heading toward the far end of the city. Each mile we drove, the buildings would just gradually fade to the distance. We were driving through a forest and Harry turned down a road shaded by big trees.

"This is really beautiful." I said.

"I know. That's why I live here." He smirked. There were absolutely no buildings for miles now. It was a little creepy to be so excluded from people. I guess it was also kind of nice to just get away. A question popped into my head.

"Harry, how am I gonna get to work?"

"I can drive you."

"But you've already done so much." I protested.

"I insist." He said. I shook my head.

"Well thank you. Just tell me what I need to do to repay you." I said.

"You could always give me a kiss." He wiggled his eyebrows.

"Harry!" I scolded.

"I have a boyfriend, and plus I've never kissed anyone before." My eyes widened and I quickly covered my mouth at the list bit.

"I didn't mean to say that..." I said quietly, turning a deep shade of red.

"You can't tell me that you've never been kissed before. You're far too beautiful for that. And plus what about your boyfriend?" He said. He had a good point.

"Well we've only been in a relationship for a couple of days and we're always fighting." I said.

"That doesn't sound like much of a relationship. No offense." He said.

"It's confusing. I don't even know if I like him. I thought we were just friends." I said. He didn't say anything.

"He said he loved me but how am I supposed to believe him? I've known him for years and he's never acted like this before. It's like I don't even know him anymore." I sighed out of frustration.

"It'll be alright." He said.

"I hope so." The car stopped driving and I looked out the window to see that we were here. I stepped out of the car and heard the fallen leaves crunch under my feet. The autumn breeze blew through my hair and I looked up at his house. My eyes went wide.

"This is your house???" I said, still in disbelief.

"Yep." He said, with a proud smile on his face. It was a grand white mansion with pillars holding up a second floor balcony. It was breathtaking. There was a stairway to the front door and the autumn leaves were scattered on the ground.

"Is it haunted?" I asked, rubbing my arms.

"Definitely." A chill ran down my spine at his words. I followed Harry inside and was greeted by a comforting warmth. The mansion was dimly lit and he flipped a switch on. My eyes widened at the sight in front of me. There was a big grand double sided stairway leading to the second floor and an elegant chandelier hanging from the ceiling.

Harry smiled at me while I admired his beautiful home.

"So you live here....all alone??" I asked. He nodded.

"Well not exactly. You see I used to live alone but now I've got you." I laughed.

"Can you show me around?" I asked.

"Absolutely."
