Head Over Heels (One Direction Fic)

Chapter 34

Harry woke me up the next morning in the most disgustingly cheesy way you could imagine, with a kiss. Yes, I felt like a regular Rapunzel, except it was a kiss on the forehead, and it wasn't true love, and I wasn't under a sleeping spell.

"Merry Christmas Anna," he said huskily as he scooted into the bed next to me.

"I thought that people here said Happy Christmas," I responded wiping my eyes.

"Just wanted to make you feel more at home," he chuckled pulling me closer to him.

"Happy Christmas Harry," I turned to face him laying my head against his chest.

"Happy Christmas," he mumbled into the top of my head.

It wasn't long before Anne started rounding everyone up for breakfast followed by the ritual present opening. Harry got everyone a bottle of all of One Direction's perfumes which he claimed over and over again could be unisex. Everyone smiled at his shameless plug and took turns spraying their bottle at him so that he could prove the manliness of the smell. In typical parent fashion Robin and Anne exchanged various kitchen and household tools all topped by a beautiful pair of earrings Robin surprised her with. Gemma received knick-knacks for her apartment. I was enjoying the family time so much that I hadn't even noticed that I didn't receive any gifts. Being in the homey environment without any drama, especially after the last few days was a nice change. Nearing the end of the boxes under the tree Anne's expression changed from one of absolute joy to one of sadness.

"Anna I'm so sorry love, I don't have any gifts for you. Your coming was a little last minute and I didn't have time to get you anything, and never having met, I had no idea where to even begin," she said concerned.

I shook my head, "I don't need anything. Really. I am so grateful that you let me spend the day with your family, everything else is unimportant to me."

Gemma gave me an eye roll smiling, "Such a suck up. Mum just give her a couple of shots so we can hear what she really thinks about the family."

Anne gasped and Robin laughed, "We're happy you're here Anna," he said with a smile.

"I uh...I actually have something," Harry chirped up from the couch. Everyone turned their attention towards him as he sprinted up the stairs presumably to his room.

"I think you'd better follow him Anna," Gemma raised her eyebrows, "maybe his present can only be found in the bedroom."

"Gemma!" Anne said wide-eyed.

She laughed, "Don't pretend you weren't thinking it mum."

Before they could continue their bicker Harry returned to the couch out of breath, but holding an envelope, which he held out to me.

I took the envelope cautiously, keeping eye contact with him while I slipped my finger under the flap and gently tore it open.

Inside the envelope were two tickets and a note. "Good for one free night of limitless screaming." I blushed at the note before turning my attention to the tickets. Printed in block capitals read 'JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE WORLD TOUR VIP ACCESS.' I dropped the envelope like it was on fire and clapped my hands over my mouth.

"What is that?" My voice came out muffled through my hands.

Harry's family shared glances back and forth before their gaze landed on the smirking boy and the girl on the floor who looked like she was about to have an emotional breakdown.

"I'm sorry I thought you would like them...you always talk about how much you love Justin Timberlake, but how you've never seen him," Harry started to look concerned.
