Lara's POV:

I wake up not knowing where I am. I soon come to realize that I'm at the frat house in Harry's room.

I slowly get up and wrap a blanket around me. I open the door as quietly as possible and head downstairs, following the smell of pancakes.
When I enter the kitchen I see Harry's back turned to me. He's standing at the stove flipping pancakes and scrambling eggs.
I make my way to the island and pull out a stool to sit on. "Hey cutie." I say quite loudly, making Harry jump and a pancake go falling on the floor. "Fuck, Lara. You scared the shit out of me."

"More like pancakes." I smirk and point to the one on the floor. "It's your fault." He complains.
He bends down and picks the pancake up and throws it into the trash.

He grabs plates and silverware and then puts a serving of food on each plate.
He sets a plate infront of me and takes a seat beside me.
"How'd you sleep?" I ask in between bites.
"Better since you were here." He swallows and leans over to place a kiss on my cheek.
I smile and keep eating. I have to admit, harry is an amazing cook. He should cook me food more often.

When I finish my food I pick up my plate and slip it into the dishwashers, I then do the same to Harry's.
When I turn around, harry is still sitting there, staring at me. When e realizes I'm looking at him, his face flashes me a bright smile. "Come here." He says and pats the stool I was sitting in.

I go and sit down next to him again and give him a questioning look.
"I have a surprise for you." He giggles out.
"A surprise? Why?"
"Early Christmas present." He shrugs his shoulders.
"Harry it's October."
"sh."
He slightly stands up to grab something out of his back pocket. It looks like it's folded up a billion times, he hands it to me. I stare at him with a confused look and start to unfold it.

It's a pamphlet for Tahiti and Bora Bora. I stare at it not knowing what to think. Why did he give me this? "Um Harry?"
"We are going to go there." He says calmly.
"WHAT?" I jump up and scream.
"October 20th till November 2nd."
"Oh Harry. Thank you! But isn't that thousands and thousands of money?"
"Don't worry about the money babe." He leans over and kisses me.
"What if my parents don't allow me?"
"Already talked to them." He sits back down.
"But they don't even know we're dating."
"Yes they do." He says calmly.
"You better explain everything to me." I sigh.
"I will. But first how about you get dressed and ready."
"Ready for what?"
"Lunch with your parents."
My eyes bulge out of my head and I run back up the stairs. Wait I don't have any clothing here. Do I just wear what I wore last night?
"HARRY!" I scream down the steps.
"What?! Are you okay?!" He yells and runs to the steps gasping for air.
I giggle, "yes."
"Then what is it?"
"What should I wear? I only have the cloths from last night."
"Hold on."
He walks up the stairs and goes into his room. He pulls out a clean gray t-shirt and hands it to me.
"Just wear this shirt and then your pants from last night."
"Okay."
I slip out of what I wore to bed and change into my pants and the T-shirt harry just gave me.
"Damn you look good in my t-shirt." He smirks.
I slip on my shoes and walk past him into the bathroom. I brush my hair with his brush and go under the sink searching for toothbrushes.
"Use mine." He walks into the bathroom to me.
"Harry that's gross."
"It's not much different then shoving your tongue in my mouth." He chuckles.
"I'm not using your toothbrush."
And with that I finally find one and start brushing my teeth.
"Ready?"
"Yeah." I respond and we head out the door to my house.

When we arrive to my house my parents immediately hug Harry. I walk into the living room to find my sister and her boyfriend snogging on the couch. "Get a room." I tell them and they start laughing. I go to the kitchen to where Harry and my parents are.
"Oh Lara, you're going to love what I made." My mom squeals, "it's your favorite."
I smile and help my dad set the table and then put the food out. There's vegetable lasagna, mashed potatoes, greenbeans, and then salad. "Thought we were having lunch." I laugh
"Dinner but at lunch time. It's fine." My dad says.
Harry gets Emily and Greg from the living room and we all sit down at the table. We grab each other's hands and my dad says a small prayer. "Amen." We all mumble.

My dad serves all of us a little salad. After we're done eating that, we all dig into the good stuff.

"Harry, how're you holding up?" My mom gives him a sympathetic look.
"I'm okay. It is what it is. Lara here is a huge help." And with that he puts his hand on my inner thigh under the table. I jump a little, caught off guard.
"Why? What happened?" Emily questions. I shoot her a glare and then look at harry.
"My mom passed."
"Oh my god. I'm so sorry." She says and keeps eating.
"So did you give Lara her lovely gift?" My dad asks, trying to change the subject.
"Yes he did." I smile at Harry.
"What are you guys going to do in Tahiti and Bora Bora?" Mom asks us.
"Shh it's a surprise." Harry says and my dad chuckles, "I'll tell you guys later when Lara isn't around." Harry continues.
"And how long will you two be there?" Emily asks.
"October 20th to November 2nd." I say.
"Holy shit. Can I come?" Greg laughs.
"Greg, language." My dad mutters. I don't think my dad really likes Greg. I don't blame him though.

"How's the food everyone?"
"Lovely."
"Wonderful."
"Amazing."
We all respond, giving her good feedback.
"Thank you. Who's ready for dessert?" My dad, Emily and Greg all nod, but harry says, "I'm sorry Mrs. Rufus. But I think we need to head out, I have to go to my fathers to arrange things and I'd like Lara to come."
"Oh of course! Then you can take dessert over there and give the little ones some!" She exclaims and quickly goes back into the kitchen to grab our desserts.
She comes back out with basically half a chocolate cake with white creamy icing and huge chocolate chip cookies.
"That all looks wonderful." Harry says.
"Thank you Harry. Now you and Lara be safe and don't get into trouble."
"Yeah no funny business." My dad chimes in.
"No funny business." Harry and I agree.
"Okay well Lara, your mom and I will see you later tonight right?" My dad glances at Harry.
"Of course." Harry responds.
We all exchange hugs and goodbyes and Harry and I head out the door and to the car.
