Adaline
I lower myself into the tub as I feel the warm water surrounding me. I throw a purple Mercury bath bomb into the water & watch the water turn into beautiful shades of violet & blue.
I gently close my eyes & let my mind wander.
Maybe this one is different.
Maybe he won't hurt you.
Maybe he won't take you for granted.
Maybe...
I carefully open my eyes & reminisce about my past & how dark it truly was. I quickly shake off the thought & get out of the tub, wrapping a towel around my body.
I quickly notice I'm left home alone, which is nothing but ordinary. I change into a hoodie & walk downstairs into the living room.
I walk by the couch grabbing the remote & setting my phone on the table. I flip through the channels aimlessly & stop at a random channel.
After a few minutes I heard a vibrating sound coming from my phone. A mysterious number appeared on my screen but I didn't hesitate to answer it.
"Hello?"
"Hello love." The voice said.
It was him.
"How did you get my number?" I asked.
"Well I wouldn't want you to be the one that got away now would I?" He replied.
I smiled through the phone.
"I was wondering if you were busy on this beautiful evening"
"I think I can clear my schedule." I chuckled.
"Then it's settled, I'll be there in 10 minutes. And don't worry about dressing up love, it's your choice." He said before we said our goodbyes.
I decided on stay at home with Harry & just watching movies. I didn't feel like running into anybody from school & I didn't feel like getting questioned.
As the ten minutes flew by there was a knock at my door. Before I opened the door a feeling rushed through me. I think I was nervous.
I opened the door to see Harry standing with a bouquet of assorted roses in hand. He was looking at the ground & his face shot up as I spoke.
"You can come in" I smiled.
He nodded & followed me inside.
"Your house is lovely Adaline." He smiled.
"Thank you." I said walking closer to him.
He began to open his mouth & looked confused.
"These are for you." He handed the flowers to me. His face looked as if a red rose has bloomed on his cheeks.
"Harry, they're beautiful." I embraced him into a hug.
"Just like you." He mumbled.
I kissed his cheek as I walked over to the kitchen to grab a vase. Once I put the flowers in a vase I walked back over to Harry.
"Is it alright if we just watch movies?" I politely asked.
"Of course." He smiled.
I gently grabbed his hand & led him to the couch. I sat down beside Harry & cuddled up to him as we searched for a movie to watch.
