Receiving Her (h.s. au)

X

The silence in Harry's room is comfortable, the early hours of the morning not affecting us for we've been up majority of the night talking. But now we lay facing each other in complete silence, his eyes lightly closed as I trail my index finger along his features. He had told me when I first started he finds it relaxing; now I ponder the thought if he had actually fallen asleep.

But he opens his green eyes, keeping them hooded, but focused on my own. His cheeks are relaxed and make his lips naturally pouted, the soft pink skin so soft beneath my fingertip. I retract my hand and curl it beneath my head before I lean and kiss the tip of his button nose. He smiles, leaning his head closer and rubbing his nose with mine.

A strong arm quickly tugs my body into his, his long form easily wrapping around me. He's kept his shirt off ever since showing me his tattoos, and I bravely discarded the leggings due to heat. His shirt is long enough to cover me anyway.

He leans his head down and kisses my cheek, my head turning to face him better. It's not long before he presses his lips to mine, my eyes closing as he softly moves our lips together. He shifts to lean over my body, my hands moving to the nape of his neck.

"I have a bad habit of staying up all night with you," he grins, kissing me every other word. It makes me laugh, his smile pressing to mine.

I feel something cold hit the top of my chest, my head pulling away from the kiss to look at the pendent. He watches as I observe it, the pendent a cross.

"Were you wearing this earlier?" I ask, his head nodding.

"I think it twisted so it was behind my neck. I never take it off," he explains, my head nodding.

"It was from my grandma. She was extremely religious, saying I needed protection from God. I just went with it and never took it off," he explains, my fingers letting go of the pendent and lightly running my fingers against his chest.

"That's cool," I smile, his lips curving as he looks at me.

He rolls back to lay next to me and I turn to look at him, his fingers brushing my hair behind my ear. My hands grab his and he kisses my fingers, soon letting go to bring my body closer to his. His fingers play with my hair and I close my eyes, falling asleep in his arms.

The morning comes and I roll over, only to realize I'm lying on top of Harry's back. He seemingly rolled over and now I'm facing his muscular shoulders. But I rest my head between his shoulder blades, finding an odd comfort.

His arms flex and he moves his hand towards me, my hand willingly placed in his. He pulls it up so I hook my arm around his neck, his lips releasing a sigh. I smile at his pouted sleeping face and lean my body up, lightly pressing kiss to the skin beside his ear. He squeezes my hand and lightly opens his eyes, my arms moving to wrap around his neck so I kiss his cheek better.

"I could get used to this," he mumbles, his dimples appearing. I smile and look down at him, his green eyes looking at me beneath his eyelashes.

My body slides off his back and he wraps his arm around me, pressing his lips to my forehead.

"I would love to make you Sunday morning breakfast," he whispers, my body curling closer to him. My cheeks are kissed repeatedly and I can't help but laugh, his arms slinging completely around me and pulling me to him.

"Then I have to go to practice," he groans, burying his face in my hair.

"But you're so good, practice will be effortless," I try, his chuckle heard in my ear.

"But I can't spend time with my Rookie, can I?" he rhetorically asks, my lips curving. He kisses my cheek and I move my hand to his cheek, his dimple pressed against by my thumb. It causes him to smile bigger and I hook my leg with his, his hands holding my back.

My eyes look at his tattooed chest and I move my hands to his pectorals, his hand moving so his finger lifts my chin to look at him.

But as soon as our eyes meet, he presses his lips to mine. It takes me by surprise, my lips remaining shut so he can't discover the morning breath I obtain.

"Rookie, as cute as you are, morning breath doesn't bother me and I hope it doesn't bother you," he whispers, kissing me between words.

His words make me smile, his lips still on mine as our lips curve. Our kisses last minutes before we finally get out of bed. He gets out and I follow, his body stopping as he looks at me. Quickly, I tug the hem of his short down, trying to cover my legs, but he grabs my wrists.

"Your legs are perfect," he says, taking me by surprise as he hooks his arm beneath my knees. My back is supported by his other arm and he lifts my body higher on his body, my eyes watching as he kisses my knee.

"A beautiful body for a beautiful girl," he smiles, my arms wrapping around his neck. I have never felt beautiful until Harry, and I know he's genuine.

"Now, Em, we need to discuss how it is humanly possible to be as beautiful as you are? But more importantly, why you have given me the honor to hold you in this way?" he grins, carrying me through the house to his kitchen. I have no words. No one has ever spoken to me the way Harry does.

"I don't know," I flush, his chuckle muffled as he kisses my hair.

I lean my head into his neck and he sits at the kitchen counter, my body seated in his lap.

"You're what I've been looking for," he tells me, my eyes looking up at him. He brushes my hair behind my ear and keeps his hand on the nape of my neck.

"You have no idea how you are making me feel," he whispers, pressing my forehead against his. I close my eyes and lightly brush our noses together, his hot breath spanning over my lips.

"Emma," he whispers, my eyes lightly opening to meet his in response.

"I don't want to lose you," he tells me, my heart momentarily stopping. The reaction I must portray has to be one of utter shock, but he quickly covers it up by moving his lips to find mine. His arms wrap around me as he kisses me, not minding the morning breath as we had established. But this kiss...it's the most feeling intensifying feeling in the world.

"You won't. As long as you keep me safe," is all I respond, his lips parting over my upper lip.

"I'll do everything I can to keep you safe then," he replies, kissing me once more to once again prove his feelings.
