Teenage Dreams (Harry Styles AU)

-Chapter 15

Carter's POV:

I woke up on a hard surface and realized it was the soft skin of Harry's chest muscles. A lazy smile finds it's way onto my face when I realize that we're both naked and Harry has a happy smile on his face even in his sleep. I smile brightly when I remember that we said that we loved each other last night for the first time ever and that made me so happy. I do love Harry. I'm in love with him, and it's such a great feeling to know now that he loves me too and I know that Sam loves him as well as he loves her, possibly even more than me. I giggle when I realize that I just may have found someone that I thought was too perfect to actually exist.

"It's rude to stare." Harry's groggy voice scares me out of my daydreams and I look to Harry to see his eyes closed and a smirk on his face. He momentarily opens one eye to peek at me before closing them again as his smile grows even wider. "It's rude to not give me a good morning kiss." I giggle and Harry opens his eyes wide before leaning up to give me a quick kiss.

"Last night was incredible, you wore me out." Harry jokes. "You loved it." I roll my eyes. "I did. I did." Harry finally commits to keeping his eyes open in a squint. "Could we..." I trail off tracing my fingers on his chest. "Jesus. Again? I just woke up, I mean I love you and I would love to make love to you, but if it's going to be like this all the time, I'm going to need to figure something out. I only have so much energy-" I cut Harry off, though my heart flutters when he says he loves me again, even though I made him say it at least a hundred times last night.

"No! I wasn't talking about that. I was wondering if we could talk about... us." I trail off with an eyebrow raised. "Oh... Well the first option is always on the table too, but yeah I guess we can talk about that." Harry blushes with a smirk on his face. "Yeah, yeah." I roll my eyes before leaning up and crossing my arms over Harry's chest so that I'm semi sitting up.

"I just really love you Harry, and I know that this has moved so incredibly fast and I just need to know what you're thinking, because I don't want to push too much and then scare you off, Sammy really loves you and I just can't stand to see her get crushed by having two men in her life leave, and I don't want that to pressure you into staying too, I just-" Harry cuts me off with a frown on his face and his index finger pressed to my lips. "No baby. No." Harry closes his eyes and shakes his head while collecting his thoughts.

"I know that we've moved fast, but I've known you for over a year now and I feel like I'm closer to you than anybody. I love that it's gone fast with us, because we can handle it and I love being this close to you. I love you and Samantha so much and I wouldn't dream of leaving and I couldn't be happier, please don't question it." Harry finishes with a frown. "But you're so young-" My voice shakes. "Which is why I'm so lucky to have found someone I love so early in life." Harry finishes with a smile.

"My whole life was put on hold when Sammy was born, but that's ok because I love her and it was my own choices that led to Sam, this isn't your responsibility. You don't have to-" Harry cuts me off once again making my frown deepen. "Why can't you just except that this is what I want? I want you and I want Samantha. Why won't you just let me be here for you, this is what I want." Harry's voice shows annoyance. "You'll resent me." I whisper and hide my face.

"What?" Harry asks and turns my face to look at him again. "One day you'll realize all that you missed out on in life because you settled down way too early and you'll resent me for letting you do that... then eventually you'll leave." I brokenly whisper and Harry's mouth hangs open as he stares at me deeply. "Baby. I won't. I won't. I've done everything that I want to that I can't do if I'm 'settled', and everything else that I want to do in life, I want to do with you and Samantha by my side." Harry shakes his head with a frown as he pulls me down into a hug.

"Are you sure?" I sniffle. "I'm so damn sure." He laughs. "You'll tell me if there's ever a problem? You'll always be honest with me right? If there's something that I need to fix or work on?" I ask and I know that my insecurities are showing more so than ever. "Yeah baby." He speaks, but I know he's just saying it to humor me. It's silent in the room for awhile with my head is on his chest and his arms wrapped around me.

"I've been thinking lately... And if, if it's ok with you, and Samantha of course, do you think... Do you think that maybe... Forget it." Harry shakes his head as his cheeks turn red. "No, tell me." I give him an encouraging smile and stroke his cheek. His eyes look at me and then quickly away before he looks up as if he's trying to think of something. "I was just... wondering if uh, you and Sam wanted to spend Christmas with me." Harry finishes and finally looks back at me. "I thought we already talked about this? You're coming over for Christmas right? Is that it?" I ask.

"Oh right. Yeah, that's it." Harry gives me a shy smile and I instantly know that he was going to ask something else, but I leave it alone because I know that Harry won't tell me anyway and he will ask eventually, when he's ready. "I love you." I give him a sweet smile. "I love you too." Harry's face breaks out into a large smile and gives me a kiss, before the sound of knocking at the door breaks us apart. "Louis is really early." Harry speaks with surprise. I'm confused when I check my phone to see that it's only ten and Louis isn't supposed to be dropping Sam back off for another eight hours...

I stand up from the bed and put on a short robe I have next to my bed before tying it tight around my middle. Harry smirks at me as I put it on and sends me a wink before rolling onto his chest and burying his face in my pillow. "Be right back." I say and walk towards the hall. I walk downstairs and open my front door slightly so that the door is covering my body. My eyes buldge out when I see Niall stood in-front of me again. "Hey Carpet." Niall speaks shyly as he nervously scratches the back of his neck. This can't be happening.
