After I got untied and Harry helped me clean off all the whip cream, we got in the shower together (per his request).

"It's so much easier to shower alone," I sighed, trying to squeeze past him to get my washcloth. "This shower is too damn small for two people!"

"But I like being with you," he grinned as I hit him in the rib with my elbow. "Ouch! Your elbows are bony."

"That's it," I said dramatically as I threw my hands up. "I'm getting out. Let me know when you're done."

"You're not going anywhere," he snickered, pulling me back in just when I was stepping out into the cold air. "Come on, just enjoy the closeness, darling. It's good bonding."

"You know we already have sex a ridiculous amount every week," I rolled my eyes. "The last thing we need is bonding."

"I beg to differ."

"Oh?"

"Mhm."

We finished our shower in comfortable silence and since Harry had forgotten to do laundry, we had to use small washcloths to dry ourselves off. He was the definition of a man child.

"It's not my fault!" He cried indignantly as I threw my soggy washcloth at him. "I just forget sometimes."

"Now what am I supposed to do?" I huffed, a deep line forming between my eyebrows as I stared at myself in the large mirror. "My clothes are dirty, my hair is soaking wet and you have no blowdryer, and I have no makeup. Fantastic."

"Why can't you just run home and grab your things?"

"My Pops is having a lady friend over," I pursed my lips. "I wanted to be out of the house all day so they could spend time together."

He wound his tan arms around my waist and kissed my neck, especially the few places where there were deep purple marks.

"You don't need anything else, okay? Just wear your skirt and one of my old T-shirts and it'll be fine. My mum doesn't care, she thinks you're like the best thing since sliced bread."

"But what about my makeup?"

"You don't need that shit," he frowned as we stared at the reflection of our intertwined bare bodies. "You're perfect the way you are."

"All guys say that."

"Believe me, I'm not one of them. I wouldn't tell you that unless I meant it."

I laughed. "Okay, crazy."

"I am crazy," he chuckled, kissing down to my shoulder. "Come on baby, I'm tired. Let's lay down."

"The sheets are covered in whip cream," I reminded him as I laced my fingers with his. "And I'm all clean."

"Alright sunshine, I hear you," he laughed deeply. "I'll change them, just wait here."

I picked up my phone and snorted as I read a text from Alex, who was currently freaking out because Niall had asked her to stay the weekend at his parents' cabin.
