I woke up in a tangle of sheets and Harry's arms wrapped around my naked waist. I took a moment to admire how his hair was a mess around his head and the way he was so relaxed. I was catching a glimpse of the old Harry. The Harry who made me first fall in love with him. Underneath the dark circles, the scowl, and five o'clock shadow was the Harry that had captured my heart and refused to let it go.
I shifted to get into a more comfortable position and immediately felt his arm tighten around me and his eyes pop open. For a moment he looked completely lost and scared. After looking at me for a few seconds he relaxed again and the look disappeared. I felt myself frown at his actions.
"Are you alright Harry?" I asked as I rubbed soothing circles on his arm. He half smiled in response.
"I am now." He said as he scooted me even closer to his body while burying his head in my neck. I was far from convinced that he was okay.
"Are you sure? Was it a bad dream?" I questioned as I lightly traced patterns on his skin, tickling him.
"Something like that, yeah." Was all he said. I could feel the light tension in his body and it bothered me. Something was clearly bothering him and causing discomfort. I wanted to know what and how I could help fix it.
"Harry.. You can talk to me. I won't have anything negative to say." I gently moved from his embrace to look him in the eyes. His face was scrunched up in concentration with his eyes closed tight. I moved my hand from his arm to his face. I rested my hand on his cheek and watched him relax under my gentle touch. He slowly opened his eyes and I was taken off guard yet again by how sad they seemed to be. My heart ached for whatever battle he was fighting inside.
"I.. I've been having nightmares. It's been weeks of just horrid dreams. I woke and thought you wouldn't be here. I thought you were just a figment of my imagination." The look in his eyes became even sadder when he mentioned waking up without me.
"You know I'm here. I would never leave you to wake up alone." I watched as the sadness faded just a little.
"The dreams.. They're terrible. I always wake up and you're not here. But.. In the dreams you're always present. Always. And when I wake up it's like the breath is knocked out of me because you would never be here. I thought you would never be in my arms again." His confession pulled at my heart. It aches painfully in my chest. I had no idea he felt so strongly about what had happened. When he came to me about not wanting me to be with Zayn I thought it was just because someone else had me other than him. I never expected this.
"If you'll let me, I will always be here. I don't want to walk away from you again. Ever." I whispered as I leaned my forehead against his. I watched as his eyes blazed to life with so much intensity it made me melt. I could only hope the spark in his eye meant that he felt the same way.
Harry traced his fingers over my abdomen, up the curve of my breast, to my neck where he rested his hand and pulled me the rest of the way to him so he could kiss me. It was a kiss full of love, full of passion. It was a kiss that I would never forget.
He broke away and looked into my eyes. I saw thoughts forming.
"Move in with me."
My entire body froze. Move in with him? I had surely heard him wrong. He was out of his mind.
"What?" I asked, very alarmed by his question.
"Come to England. Move in with me. Live with me. Let me wake up to you every morning and make love to you every night knowing you'll never be apart from me." Harry said as he leaned in and took my earlobe into his mouth. He sucked lightly as I gasped for her. I felt his hand reach low and trace the curve of my hip before cupping my bottom and pulling me on top of him in one swift motion.
"Harry." I said breathlessly. He was distracting me on purpose.
"Delani." He said as he rested his hands on my hips while I straddled him, completely naked.
"I have priorities at home. I fly back at the crack of dawn tomorrow. You know I can't just leave." I tried to keep my voice as even and convincing as possible as he rolled his hips, making full contact with my lower half that rested right above him. I was going insane. The feel of his bare skin mere centimeters away from my opening had me trembling.
I watched him carefully as he took one of his hands and dipped it low between where our bodies almost touched. I moaned loudly as his fingers grazed me.
"Come live with me after you finish your end of the year tests. I can't be without you again." He said. His voice had gone low and raspy. He was as distracted as I was but he had an end goal. Me.
I rocked against him wanting him. I couldn't speak without whimpering from his assault between my legs. I felt my head fall back as I screwed my eyes shut tight. I couldn't think straight with the climax quickly building inside me. I breathed deeply and rocked my body against him again. His fingers stilled. I whimpered again.
"Say yes." His other hand gripped my hip and kept me from moving against him. I brought my head back and opened my eyes to look at him. I wanted him to allow me to move. I wanted him to finish what he started but I knew he wouldn't until I answered him. I had put up a fight and I even knew it was pointless.
"Yes." I sighed in relief as he removed his hand from my hip and slipped inside of me.
