Dancing with the Boys (Harry Styles Love Story)

Chapter 19: Blood

Yup! The update you've all been begging for! They won't be as frequent as before, but I will try my best! Credit to Cheyenne, A.K.A., CoriEvert, for lending me her laptop charger! Even though it didn't fit, she still helped. And thanks to Rachel, ray_salome, even though she did nothing but yell at me (and occasionally threaten) everyday for not uploading ;)

Those two, by the way, are my friends who play Avalon and Rachel. 

I'm sorry for having you all wait so long, but enjoy! And sorry it's not as long as it usually is, even though it is pretty long, but I was kinda hurrying so I wouldn't have to make you all wait longer.

I was silent that morning as I ate my breakfast. “Li? Are you alright?” Harry asked.

“I’m not sure…” I poked my pieces of food around my plate then set down my fork, a frown on my face.

“What’s up?”

“I keep feeling as though something’s wrong, but I don’t know what. If something’s wrong with me, or the house, or the girls, or the boys, I don’t know,” I said, heaving sigh.

“Everything’s fine,” Harry said, taking my plate. He quickly cleaned the wares but I couldn’t shake the feeling. Harry turned and saw the worried crease on my face. He came around the counter and held my face in his hands.

“Everything’s fine,” he repeated, giving me a kiss. “You need to relax.”

I looked at him. “Before, that would’ve meant going to the spa. What does it mean now?” I asked, throwing up my hands.

Harry walked around so he stood behind me. “Well, first, you’re going to go change into something to swim in,” he said, putting his hands on my shoulders and leaning down to speak directly into my ear. I felt a little shiver go through my body as his breath touched the side of my neck.

“And then you’re going to meet me at the indoor pool.” He kissed my cheek then walked off, telling me to take my time. I did the exact opposite, rushing up to my room as soon as he was out of sight. However, as I began to go through my swimsuits, I ended up spending quite some time trying to decide which one to wear. I chose a bikini with a deep, rich blue colour.

I grabbed my towel and was about to leave the room when I spotted my phone on the bed. I was sorely tempted to call the girls and make sure that everything was fine, but it would have them ask me how I was doing, and I didn’t want to lie to them. I sighed and left the room, shutting the door gently behind me.

I went to the indoor pool as quickly as I could, slowing down before I came to stand in front of it. I pushed open the door and gasped. The lights were dimmed and there were lounge chairs spread with soft white towels. There were rose petals spread on the floor and scented candles, making the room smell like vanilla.

I saw Harry sitting on one of the chairs, shirtless, wearing a pair of red bathing pants. He stood up when he saw me and came to my side. “Like it?” he asked.

“I love it!” I cried. He smiled and took my towel. Harry laid it on one of the chairs, then came to me and took my hand. He led me to the chair and told me to lie down on my stomach. I did as he said, confused, and was about to ask him why, when I felt his hands on my back. His hands brushed my hair to the side and then ran over my skin. I felt my breathing hitch.

Harry moved his hands to the space between my shoulders and my neck and he slowly began to move his hands, clenching gently then unclenching. I involuntarily felt my all of my muscles go slack as he continued to massage me. He moved his hands to my shoulder blades, kneading my flesh until he massaged all over my back.
