Harry's POV

I wake up to the sound of banging on my door. My eyes adjust to the light, as I kick my way out of bed. I groggily make my way downstairs to open the door.

"Who is it?" I ask, my voice still raspy from sleeping.

"It's Rose. I think I left my phone over here."

I hastily open the door, and I'm met by her in this beautiful baby blue dress. Her hair is up in a bun, and she has on lace black heels. The dress is lace in the middle, and it's comes to about knee length. 'Wow' I think to myself.

"Uh, thanks I guess." She says, blushing slightly.

I feel the heat creeping on my face. "I said that out loud didn't I?"

She nods her head.

"Come in, where are you going if you don't mind me asking?"

"My mom's friend is getting married tonight. I never been to a night wedding, plus it's by the river. The reception is supposed to be under this big tent, and I'm rambling aren't I?" She chuckles.

I smile at her nodding.

"Well if you don't mind, I'll get my phone, and I'll be out of your way." Rose says.

She makes her way upstairs, and then comes back empty handed.

"Hey, could you call my phone? It's probably somewhere down here."

I nod. I scroll through my contact list, until I find her. Her phone rings, and I spot it on the couch. It seems we both have the same idea, as we both reach for it. Her hand lands on top of mine, and my breath hitches in my throat.

I quickly pull away, hiding my hand behind my back. Rose watches me intently before walking over to the door.

"Well I guess I'll be leaving now. Bye, Harry." She says to me.

I whisper out a 'bye', and I wouldn't be surprised if she didn't hear me. I close the door behind her.

"What the hell is wrong with me?"

It's the next day when someone else decides to wake me up. I march downstairs ready to give them a piece of my mind, but I find a teary eyed Rose.

"What's wrong, love?" I ask her.

She removes her face from her hands, as she stares up at me. "Mom and dad decided that they are getting a divorce."

I look at her sympathetically. "It's going to be okay. You're going to be fine."

"How do you know that for sure?"

"I went through the same thing. Now come in here, before you get a cold. It's raining cats and dogs."

Rose follows me inside the house, her hiccups have died down now.

"How about I run you a hot bath, and the we can watch some movies? Do you plan on going home later?" I ask her calmly.

She shyly shakes her head no.

"Then you're staying with me. Text your mom and tell her you're staying at a friends house tonight."

Rose texts her mom, and she follows me upstairs. I stay true to my word, as I run her a hot bath. I put some lavender scented candle around the tub, for her.
