Casanova H.S

Chapter Nineteen

"Stop it," I whine as Harry continues to kiss my shoulder, but I can't get away since his hold on me is too strong. My back is pressed against his chest, the covers cuddling us both while I try to sleep, but Harry won't let me. "I'm tired," I complain digging my face into the pillow making my word come out mumbled.

"You can't sleep all day. It's one pm already." He woke some time ago and is most likely bored, but right now I don't really care. We had a really productive night so he of all people can not blame me for being tired.

However as my tired brain process his words I sit up quickly looking at him in a slight panic. "Did you say one?" I ask reaching for the clock on his nightstand, and it is indeed one am. I put the clock down fast, and pull the covers off.

"Yes, why?" I ignore him and push myself off the bed. I run around the room gathering all my clothes. I take off Harry's shirt leaving my chest exposed, and I can feel Harry staring, but I am in too much of a hurry to care at the moment. "Hey, why are you in such a rush?" He asks standing up to while I put on my bra.

"I promised to meet Louis, and Amber at one," I explain slipping on my dress. I jog over to him and give him a kiss apologizing. "I am so sorry that I have to leave, but I promised. I will come back after I have talked to them I swear." It is really rude of me to leave, but I couldn't know this would happen when we made plans.

He pouts his lip like a child not wanting me to go. A laugh escapes my lips from the sight before me. "Fine, but you have to be back by seven because I'm going to make us dinner." He smiles at me, and his words make me excited to come back. I would have been excited either way, but this is a bonus.

"You're the best." I give him one last kiss before rushing to the door. I push it open, but I stop in the doorway remembering something. "Yesterday was amazing." I smile at him with a slight blush before hurrying downstairs. I put on my shoes, and run to where I promised to meet them.

"I'm sorry I'm late," I tell them as soon as I arrive at the shore where Louis and I first met. Both turn their heads to look at me with a smile. I wasn't as late as I thought I would be, but that's most likely because I ran all the way. They let out a laugh once they notice how out of breath I am.

"It's okay, we were a bit late yourself." They reassure me. I sit down beside Amber and let out a breath tired from the running. I have never really been an alethic person, so this little run has literally taken my breath away. However, my breath soon goes back to normal when I am able to sit still.

"Why were you late?" Louis asks leaning forward a bit so he can look at me. He is sitting on the other end of Amber making it slightly hard to keep eye contact while talking. Ambers' eyes are looking up, and down my body in confusion making me shift uncomfortably wondering what she is looking at.

I don't get to answer Louis, because as soon as I open my mouth Amber gasps hitting Louis arm in excitement. "Oh my gosh, you are glowing!" She screams making both me and Louis stare at her confused wondering what she means by that. "You had sex!" She screams again explaining herself. Louis opens his mouth in shock over how she could tell so easily, but quickly recovers, and looks at me with a smirk. I just roll my eyes looking away embarrassed.

"Maybe." I blush to keep my eyes glued on the calm ocean before me. I can feel Amber glaring at me for not saying the truth making me let out a defeated sigh in reply. "Okay, yes I had sex." Amber claps exited making Louis laugh at her. He shakes his head at how ridiculous she looks doing so, nevertheless, his eyes are still filled with love for her.

"Tell us about it," Louis says leaning closer ready to listen. For a guy, he is awfully fond of gossip, but I think that is because he is spending so much time with Amber. If there is something you want to know about someone she is the person to ask.

"We were just dancing, and then one thing led to the other," I explain shortly not wanting to reveal everything in detail. It was a private matter between me and Harry and that's how I want to keep it. Something as intimate as that has parts you want to keep to yourself because that just makes it more special.

"Did it hurt?" Amber asks a little concerned, but not for me but herself. I know she and Louis haven't had sex yet, so I know she is a little worried about it. I can see Louis intertwine his fingers with hers trying to comfort her. Louis has been patient with her, and I know Amber really appreciate it.

"Just in the beginning, but we took it slow so it didn't take long before it felt good," I reassure her making the pain seem less hurtful then what it was. I don't want her to be afraid of sex when it truly can bring two people so much closer to each other. She sighs with a quick nod, but I know she is still a little nervous.

"This is terrible timing, but there is something I think you should know. It's about your fiancé" Louis speaks up with a little apologetic look. I am a little surprised that he knows who he is, but that seems to be all the town talks about these days, so I guess I have no reason to be surprised.

"You know I had actually forgotten about that." I laugh at how stupid I am for forgetting something as big as that. I am so happy with Harry that I had actually forgotten that I have to let him go. Honestly, I don't think I forgot, but pushed it away, thinking that if I push it away long enough it will disappear.

"I'm sorry." Louis quickly apologizes. I know he doesn't want to ruin my happy mood, but he is just looking out for me so there is no need to apologize for that.

"It's okay," I reassure him, he didn't do anything wrong.

"A guy I work with just came home from an overseas business trip where he was a waiter for this gigantic party, and apparently Mr. Bayard was there. He told me that he was a real gentleman and that he talked a lot about you even though you two haven't met yet. I just want you to know that he is a good guy from what I have heard so maybe all this won't be that bad" I am beyond thankful that he is a good man, and a gentleman, but he is still no Harry. After he told me he loved me yesterday I just I don't know if I can get myself to leave him, but I know I have to.

"That's good," I tell them. It turns quiet, both of them slightly concerned about what I will do next, but I won't do anything. "You know, he said he loved me yesterday," I say with a sad smile. I am actually relieved to say it out loud, it somehow makes it all more real.

"Oh, Mira." The way Amber says it was a mix of sympathy and happiness. Sympathy for the fact that I finally find love, and then have to let it go, and happiness that he finally told me what I am still afraid to tell him.

She brings me into a hug, and I can feel Louis arms around me as well. This whole thing isn't fair for any of us. Louis and Amber deserve better then what her father is putting them trough, they deserve enough money to start over. I don't even deserve this, for once I deserve to get what I want, and Harry deserves to be happy.
