Chapter 2
Waking up.
I wake up, stretching and walk into the bathroom that was down the hall, a little before Harry's room. I had cried myself to sleep like most nights. Depression has taken over my life, since you know my mother had passed away for about 5 months now. I pull on some sweatpants and tank top that Harry left out for me. Walking out of the flat I grab my guitar and head out to the front of the music store. I'm alone as nobody sees me. But when I sit down and start singing and playing the guitar, its the complete opposite. "Beautiful, too bad she's homeless". Is repeated as they give me looks. Not sure if their good ones or bad ones.
I feel like breaking into tears right there, but I've got to keep it strong. Just keep singing, remember how mom enjoys your angelic voice. ( I think to myself). The day went by slowly as people walked by and tossed their left over change into my guitar case. I'm pretty sure all of it was penny's. I stand up putting my guitar away to head out, God knows where, when a husky deep raspy British voice speaks.
"Em....Hi". His voice sounded shaky.
"Oh... Hi... Em, did you need something"? I asked knowing he would be taken back how I acted like I didn't know him. But by my surprise he came over and gave me a hug. It was unexpected, but sweet. I still hugged him back, I needed one because its been a while since someone actually cared.
"Why did you leave this morning"? he said into my shoulder. "I didn't want to be a problem for you...and" I breathed out but didn't continue my sentence. "& what"? he said desperately. "I'm scared Harry". I stated as I fell out of his arms. He grabbed both of my hands and place it in his. "You shouldn't be, I'm here now". he let go of my hands and peeked my cheek. I felt heat rising as I noticed I was blushing.
"Em.. how about we go to my flat and watch some films"? He said looking at me with eyes that were hoping I said yes.
"Alright. But only if there's popcorn". I smirked. He then laughed and said "Of course, anything for you love. Now lets go." He put his arm around me as we headed to his flat.

"So here I have the notebook, Love Actually, Gre....." he was going to say Grease before I bet him to it and yelled out "GREASE"! I laughed as he joined. "Grease it is". he smirked. As I sat on the sofa, Harry was taking out the popcorn from the microwave. "So Millie, what's your story"? Harry asked walking and then sitting next to me on the sofa with a bowl of popcorn. "Em... I rather not talk about it, all it brings is bad memories that I've been trying to forget". I said looking down. "I understand, but I just want you to know if you need to talk about it i'm all ears". He smirked as we cuddled up since the movie was starting. In my head all I was thinking about is how Harry made me forget everything that has happen with my mom and what's after me. Yeah you read right what's after me.
As Harry and I were watching the movie late at night, I fell myself falling asleep after a while but I could still hear people talking on the TV. I felt somebody touching my hair and then kiss my nose. Then I felt lips brushing through my ear whispering "Time to go to bed hun" Harry carries me to bed and puts a blanket over me. Then I felt the bed sink a little on my opposite side as I felt lips peek of cheek and a whisper "Goodnight babe".
