I wake up wrapped like a burrito in my sheets on my bed. There is an ice pack laying next to my face on the pillow. I open my hazy eyes and try to take in my surroundings. all is normal except for one things. Harry is sitting up next to me, where Alex usually sleeps.

"Uh, good morning. Sorry," he says awkwardly.

"Sorry what?" I ask, confused.

"For being here, I guess. I came over last night with Niall because he was over at my place, and we heard yelling and screaming. I was worried so I ran over as fast as I could and you passed out," he picks up the ice pack and silently motions to my cheek, as if asking if he could hold the ice pack to it. I take it out of his hands and do it myself.

"Oh, well, what happened after I passed out?"

"I'm not really sure actually, Alex just kind of left when I came over, almost like he was scared of me. But your friends Lupe and Michael said that Niall and I could stay the night if we wanted. Niall stayed for a while, him and Lupe seemed to get along really well. They have a lot in common," Harry glances out the window, watching two water drops race down the fogged-over glass.

Then he starts to talk again, "Anyway, he decided he needed to go home after a while but I stayed over and here I am."

I sit and stare at him for a minute before he blurts out.

"Oh god! No! I slept on the couch don't worry!"

I laugh, "Harry, that's not what I was thinking. I know you would never take advantage of me."

He seems satisfied with my response.

Just then, I realise that I'm in bed and have no makeup on.

"Aaahh!" I scream all of a sudden and duck back under the covers. The now warm ice pack goes flying across the room.

"What?!" Harry yells.

"I don't have makeup on!"

Harry places his right hand on the small of my back, gently and couciously so as not to freak me out.

"You still look beautiful." he says simply.

I'm not sure how to respond to someone calling me beautiful. Alex never calls me beautiful. So instead, I don't respond. I just poke my head back out slowly.

Harry is smiling at me with those to die for dimples.

We sit and talk about everything, mostly Alex, for awhile.

"Is he coming back?" I ask quietly after a long pause in our conversation.

"I don't know, but I hope not, because I like you a lot Chloe."
