Chapter 9

My eyes, completely blinded by the beautiful art in front of me. I tried my best not to wake him up by moving gently away from him, only to freshen up for the day, but I failed. He groaned in annoyance, I guess.

"I didn't mean to wake you up. I'm sorry-"

"No, it's okay. You're cute." He said as he giggled. His eyes on display, as I fell more in love with its color. His laugh were music to my ears, and I've only heard it once or twice. And that smile, it was literally everything.  I nodded one last time and decided to finally freshen up, so I looked for my clothes as I saw Harry stand up with my clothes in his hands.

"Looking for these," his sarcasm on full blast, as I try to hide the embarrassment that showed on my face.

"Give them back, Harry." As he looked at the door and literally ran out of the room. I cursed at the sudden events that have just happened. Moments ago, we were just laying around, being silly and shit and now we were running after each other, barely wearing anything and being silly and shit. 

"Harry!" I called out as he laughed louder and kept up his speed.

"I wanna play a game." he said. I raised my eyebrows in confusion as we both stopped running.

"What kind of game exactly?" I sarcastically asked as he thought of whatever he could think of, and by that he snapped his fingers.

"Truth or Dare."

"What, no way-"

"Please." He pleaded as I thought about it. I'll just take the truth every round.

"Okay, fine. And then you'll give my clothes back?"

"We'll see.." he challenged, as I did too.

"You won't get to wear anything too, okay?"

"Deal." And we shook hands.

-

A few minutes have passed and we've already played a few dares and truths here and there. I really enjoy being with Harry, I feel safe and happy. I wondered why we never got along in the first place.

"My turn," He said as he smirked. "Truth or dare?"

"Okay, I'll go with dare this time." He thought of something as he walked back and forth, as I just laid down on his bed. And that's when I heard him snap his fingers again.

"Get your clothes down there." He pointed out the window as he threw my clothes out.

"What the fuck, Harry?" I literally shouted as he tried his best not to laugh hard. I wasn't mad at him but I was definitely not happy either.

"A dare's a dare, baby." Sarcasm in his voice again, which was definitely not happening.

"I'm going out with only these?" I pointed out what I'm wearing at that moment as he nodded.

"No fucking way,"

"Yes fucking way, love. It's a dare. You can't say no."

"I know, asshole." I said as I smacked him lightly on his arm. "This is totally fucked up, Harry."

"I swear you'll find it hilarious after we watch it on my phone.."

"Oh fuck, no! You're not filming me."

"And why not?" he challenged as I thought of the best revenge.

"Because I have a dare for you too. We both get to do the dare at the same time."

"What's the dare then?" he lazily said as I tried not to laugh.

"You get to come with me outside, getting your own clothes."

"What clothes?" He asked as I threw his clothes outside as well. "I shouldn't have asked." 

"Deal?" I asked.

"Fine, baby." I still didn't know why he calls me nicknames but I guess I should start getting used to it, now that we've found ourselves comfortable with each other, which means a lot to the both of us.

We took the chance to see if there weren't any people in the hallways or such, and we guess the coast was still clear.

"Let's just do it quick,"

"Yeah, run, get the clothes, and run back again. Just like that." He answered as we both get in the elevator. We got to the lobby within a minute or two, and we see the owner of the hotel signing some papers on his desk.

"We can't let him see us." I said as he thinks of some plan.

"Don't worry, he won't." and by that he makes a phone call.

"Hawthorne and Hamilton speaking, how may I help you?"

"Hello, it's me. I was wondering if after all these years you'd like to meet." I was so confused how he could speak in woman's voice so perfectly.

"Who am I speaking to?" he politely answered.

"It's.. Nat.." it was the first one to pop up on his head.

"Nat Sears? Is it really you?"

"Yes, it is me. Meet me at Burger King now. Before my flight. Don't be late."

"Okay, sure. Wait for me."

"Hurry, my car's on the way."

"I'm on my way right now." And by that, he took off.

"Holy shit, that actually worked."

"I'm surprised he knew someone named Nat." he was as surprised as I was.

We did the dare together as we ran so fast. I think it was the fastest I've ran in my entire life, and it really was fun. We ran back inside as we rode the lift, with two people already in it. It wasn't awkward for Harry and I, because we were still laughing so hard. The reactions of the people we ran into, were literally priceless. 

We got out of the lift, as we both ran to our room. I actually couldn't breathe from all the laughing. This was really a great start for the day. 

I then put on my clothes as I saw Harry stare at me.

"Eyes, Harry." I warned him with sarcasm as I see him smirk.

"What do you mean?" he said as I shrugged it off.

He then walked closer to me as I felt my body trapped by him again, which was still fresh in my mind, just hours ago.

"Harry, I-" he shushed me as he leaned in and attacked me with his lips. It felt amazing and beautiful, like I was safe when he's near me. It wasn't long, we both pulled away slowly.

"Ava"

"Harry,"

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean to do it. I was just – you just looked so..." He stuttered as I stopped him.

"I kissed you back too. It's okay." I laughed at him, he look so embarrassed.

"I'm really sorry,"

"It's okay, Harry." I giggled so hard at him as we managed to eat breakfast without awkwardness. I'm just hoping it wouldn't get weird between us.
