365 Days | H.S (ON HOLD)

365 Days | Chapter 29

When I woke up the next morning, I was alone. I wished that I would turn to face her, but I didn't. Lexi wasn't there, no one was, just a cold naked place on the bed beside me. And it surprised me because it was so early, around six o'clock, and she never got up earlier than nine during this long week I've been here. I loudly sighed and turned my head towards the photographs on the wall. I stared at them for a while, as I tried to avoid the feeling of disappointment in my chest, before I managed to get up from bed. I wasn't bad at her, maybe she didn't want to actually have me there. She maybe changed her mind? And it was fine, I couldn't blame her.

Who am I even trying to fool?

I was mad, I was in fact slightly pissed and even a bit disappointed. I didn't want to admit it to myself, but not having her close by her own choice made it all seemed lika such a weird thing. All of it. I looked like a dumb fool to her, probably. She was good at manipulating, that's for sure. The fact that the house was silent, no movement heard, made it all clear that he didn't get up to go to the bathroom or take a quick breakfast. No, she just wasn't here. Still a part of me hoped she went to help her dad at work and had to woke up even earlier. I shouldn't care, I know I shouldn't, but I did. And every other explanation she would have, if she even would like to explain herself, I would not take for granted. I acted like a sensitive teenage girl, but she made me feel this way. I hated it, and I blamed it all on her.

''Grow up, Harry'', I told myself in a mumble as I stood in front of her dirty mirror.

I had a stain of mascara on my sweater. My hand reached out for it, and I touched it. It was dry and soon removable as I began to scrape it of. With a sigh leaving my lips I soon blew it off and walked out of the room, leaving the warm spot at mine side of the bed, next to hers .

I went inside the living room and began fumble around in my bag. I found a pair of short sweatpants and t-shirt and thereafter disappeared inside the bathroom to change. I was quick to not occupy the bathroom for Daisy as she was probably going to wake up soon and go to school. I was back in the hall and pushed down my feet in Louis adidas shoes. They were two sizes too small, but it didn't really bother me that much since I sometimes bought shoes that were a bit smaller. Maybe because I never bought shoes and had an excuse to buy ones as it got too uncomfortable after a while. I was just about to open the door, when my own reflection caught the corner of my eye. I turned my head to face myself in the mirror, and looked at my hair. I frowned at the sight, and hurried back inside Lexis room before grabbing a hair tie from the pile of them at her nightstand. Standing in front my reflection I grabbed my hair and pulled it up into a bun. I surprised myself as I succeed without a problem to create a bun of my longer hair. It didn't look that stupid.

Running was pleasing and easing at some point. The thing was, I liked to run and found it rather nice than tough. Back in the military I had to run 13 miles, I was the fastest one with 2 hours as time. (A/N OMG YES I MEAN AMERICAN MILES) . Apparently Louis was the worst one, when he did the same. 2 hours and twenty eight minutes it took him. Still good, but at military you can't be good at anything, and when you turn out to be, it's just unbelievable since it's usually impossible.

I was back after two and a half hour, after a long run around the awaking town and up and down the Rawlins Peak, admiring the view from it for a while. I slowed down my phase as I began to see the house. Passing the street, I began to walk instead. My gaze passed my car, but soon returned at it as I froze at the middle of the street noticing something inside of it. I frowned as deep breathes left my mouth, and I wiped the sweat running down my forehead as I lowered myself to the height of the car window and walked up to it with fast steps.
