If I.

|Chapter 18|

Fran's POV

"We can't really go anywhere, the police will be looking for people who are under the influence" I said as I began to undo my two braids.

"That sounds best" Harry nodded and tangled our fingers together, causing a deep blush to creep up my neck onto my cheeks.

"As long as I am with you" he said bringing my hand to his lips and kissing it gently.

Damn.

We just walked and talked. Enjoying each others company.

"Oh look!" I gasped as I noticed a small park that was dimly lit. "Come on!" I squealed like a little kid, taking ahold of Harry's hand once again and dragging him towards the small swing set.

He laughed at my excitement, "Come on, I'll push you"

I nodded, and took my heels off before sitting down.

"Can I ask you something" I asked, as he began to gently push.

"Of course"

"Am I the reason why you and Amber broke up?"

I had to know.

Harry stopped pushing and came to stand in front of me.

"Is that what you think?"

I nodded hesitantly.

"Fran" he shook his head, "Amber and I breaking up wasn't your fault. Amber.. Has cheated on me before" he spoke, pushing a strand of hair away from my face. "I told her if she ever cheated again.. I was done.. And that's what happened"

That's what he meant when he said it's happened before.

"Oh.. I just thought" I said, rubbing the back of my neck awkwardly

"Fran" he laughed lightly, bringing his hands to my face. "I have feelings for you... I've had feelings for you.. It wasn't until Amber cheated.. That I finally acknowledged those feelings"

"I.." I had no words.

"I don't expect you to say anything" he gulped. "Just let me do something.."

He leaned in slowly and kissed my lips gently.

I brought one of my hands to his back, to support myself and the other gently pulled at his curls, in result causing him to release a deep groan from the back of his throat.

When we pulled apart he rested our foreheads together, both of us catching our breaths.

"Wow" he grinned.

"Wow" I repeated, bringing one of his hands into my lap and just holding it.

He continued to stare down at me in admiration as I began to trace his cross tattoo.

"If we are going to do this.." I began, "we have to take it slow"

It was his turn to nod. "Of course" he smiled, kissing me once again, this time with more passion.
