Keep A Heart

Chapter 4

"... In love, everyone does things that hurt the other person, so there really is no "Right" and "Wrong". You just have to decide what you're willing to forgive" -Yvonne Wood

Harrys POV:

I put more effort into my upper body strength, the toes of my feet digging into the floor as I push at the solid, wooden dresser, looking to Blair for confirmation.

"A little more to the right." She tells me, and I repeat the process, thanking God when I hear her finally say that this is where she wants it to be.

The iPod dock in the corner switches songs, and Blair walks over to me with a wide smile. "It looks great." She tells me, her hand patting my lower back.

We had placed all the furniture in, well, I had, and Blair had placed the bed sheets on the mattress in the crib. She had also put up all the picture frames she desired, soon to be filled with pictures of our baby girl. Letter blocks spell out Brynns name above her crib also, the walls a pink that match the color of the footprints on the floor.

"I can't wait to get her out of me." Blair complains, her brows furrowed in somewhat frustration.

"What? It's uncomfortable." She tells me as I look at her, her pink lips pursed. She giggles as I pull her into me as a hope to comfort her, bowing my head down to kiss her shoulder.

"Soon." I laugh.

"I love this song." She murmurs against my chest. My ears perk to try and listen, finally placing the song. I hear her listen to this song alot.

'I don't know where I'm at, I'm standing at the back, and I'm tired of waiting. Waiting here in line, hoping that I'll find what I've been chasing.'

The lyrics swirl around the room as I separate Blair and I's warm bodies, only to take her hand in mine, hand on my stomach as I bow before her just to make her laugh. And when she does, it makes a smile break across my face. Our bodies became close again as I pulled her back to me, small giggles falling passed her lips as I sway us around the room. I've never been a guy for dancing, but it makes Blair happy.

'I shot for the sky, I'm stuck on the ground so why do I try, I know I'm gonna to fall down. I thought I could fly, so why did I drown?

Never know why it's coming down, down, down.'

Even though the song had a sad hint to it, Blair's laughter made it beautiful. She made everything better. Watching tv and eating pizza with her is fun, something I used to do on my own. But now we cuddle on the couch together after eating, and she snuggles into my side and begs me to let us watch Pretty In Pink, AGAIN. I think I know all the lines to that movie by now. I know Blair does, because she often whispers the funny lines in my ear.

'Not ready to let go, cause then I'd never know, what I could be missing. But I'm missing way too much, so when do I give up what I've been wishing for.'

And as those words rang in my ears, and I spinned Blair round again, I knew I didn't have to wonder when I'd have to give up what I was wishing for, because it was all right here.

"I love you." She laughs happily into my chest.

"I love you too, baby."

Harrys POV:

*******

"Harry."

I could feel Blair poking at my side, trying to probe me from my deep sleep. I let out a tired breath, my eyes heavy and falling closed again.
