Chapter 6

We all went home after our little get-together. Eryn and Autumn got drunk within the hour. I was really happy when Harry agreed to not drink tonight because we wanted to get home safe, and it also meant getting both of the girls home safe as well.

"Do I look like I want to cheat on my boyfriend, you pervert? Get a fucking life!" We heard Autumn shout at a guy who wanted her alone -- in the restroom, to be specific. She looked furious when Harry and I caught them, at the middle of the dancefloor. 

Eryn also had a small fight with this girl who wanted the drink she actually ordered. I mean, who bloody does that? I know I wouldn't like it either. I tried to keep them calm which actually helped after a few more yelling. At least no one died tonight, that's how Harry said it.

It actually took us ten minutes to tuck them both in, individually. First, I changed their clothes and Harry helped with the carrying.

Afterwards, Harry and I went straight to our room. Of course, there was still the awkwardness, after that fight we had, but I'm really happy it was all over with.

As I finished changing into my pajamas, I went to the kitchen to get some water. I walked to the living room and saw Harry watching tv.

"Can't sleep?" He asked.

"Not really," I answered.

"Come here then." As I sat a little far away from him. We sat there and watched tv. I didn't actually understand the movie because I didn't have the chance to start it that's why I only focused on one thing -- how Harry's still in a good mood.

"You know I don't bite, right?" He said, out of the blue, as I laughed. I can't stop the feeling where he really looks good when he smiles.

"I guess I know that, Harry." He then looked at me. I looked back.

"Then why aren't you talking to me?"

"I still remember it, Harry. I just couldn't forget what you said-"

He leaned in as I was cut off by my own words.

He leaned in closer again. I moved away because I didn't know what to do. I didn't really know if he was apologizing or shitting with me.

"I'm sorry. I really am." And then he moved again, this time, closer to my face. His lips inches away as I froze in my spot.

"Harry, I-"

"Don't say anything, you'll ruin it." He answered.

"What do you mean-"

And poof.

I woke up, on the couch, with Harry at the other side. I didn't want to wake him up so I moved slowly as possible. I got up and went to the bathroom to freshen up a bit. I brushed my teeth as I looked outside the window, it was a beautiful morning. I could see the clouds light up like my usual smile, and I could see the trees dancing wildly from the cause of the wind.

After freshening up, I walked out and saw a shirtless Harry standing in front of me. He was just looking at me.

"Hey, you." he said with his raspy voice. I smiled at him.

''Morning," I said as he giggled at me.

"Did you just giggle at me?"

"Yeah, I did."

"That's a first."

"You know I can smile too, right? Like a normal person."

"Wow. I'm really surprised." I answered sarcastically.

And we laughed there like idiots for ages, until we heard a knock on the door.

"Who is it?" Harry shouted but there was no answer, so we looked at each other in confusion.

"I'll get it," I said as he followed me. I went to the door and opened it. We saw no one but a box, a little box that had an 'M' on it.

"It's from my sister," I said as we just stood there.

"Let's open it." I was a bit scared of opening it with him. I didn't know why but I just had a feeling.

"We'll open it later, for now you need a shower cos you kinda stink."

"You stink too," he shrugged.

"No, I don't." I argued lightly.

"We both need a shower."

"After you, my good sir." And we laughed again.

I think I'm really liking this Harry. But for now, I have to think about the inside of this box. What did Margo send me?

I went to my room and locked the door. I hope he doesn't suspect anything. I removed all the tape and opened it already.

"Fuck," I gasped. I was so shocked of what I'm seeing. I didn't know how to react because I was feeling every emotion I could. They were all pictures of Harry from when he was little, his first day in school until high school. I noticed he was with a woman that didn't actually look like him but she was in every photo he had.  

I caught my full attention to this particular photo of him where he was like 14 or 15, he had this green shirt on with a beanie and some pants, he was onstage and had a microphone with him. His curls were unbelievably showing as it had a light brown effect on it. I kind of liked his hair now, it really is a turn-on for most girls, if I must say. I looked more from the photos in the box until-- 

"Ava? Its your turn to take a shower," he said.

"Yeah, I'll be out in a sec."

"What're you doing in there?"

"Nothin"

"I'm coming in."

"I'm naked!" I had to have an excuse.

"Oh, sorry. I'll wait for you then," I heard his steps get far, alerting me that he had gone somewhere far from my room. I hid the box under my bed and walked out of my room and tried to just forget what Margo sent and just mind my own business, for now.

This night shall be fun, and I'm going to make sure it will. 

I just hope it all ends well.
