"My head fucking hurts." I complained as morning light poured through the windows.

"That's what you get for drinking all my wine." My mum scolded as she handed me a cup of coffee. I had gotten up before she left for work to tell her about the wine before I started feeling too guilty. Harry was still fast asleep.

"I'm off to work, have a nice day honey." She kissed my head before walking out the door. I grabbed my coffee mug, walking into the living room. Before I sat down, I grabbed the remote turning the TV on.

I criss crossed my legs as I relaxed on the couch, clicking through channels. I set the remote down as I found a channel with cartoons on it, taking a sip of my coffee.

I jumped as I heard Harry scream. I set my coffee down, rushing into our room.

"What is wrong?" I asked, seeing Harry pointing to the opened window. I began laughing as I walked over to the window sill, grabbing the neighbourhood cat we fed sometimes in my arms.

"Harry it's only a cat." I smiled, stroking the black animal.

"It jumped on me and bit me." His husky voice mumbled. I scoffed.

"This kitten wouldn't harm a fly let alone bite you." I said, setting the street cat back on the window sill before walking over to Harry and removing the cover from his body.

"C'mon, we have places to go." I smiled, Harry groaning as the cold air hit his skin. He wasn't wearing a shirt and I couldn't help but stair at the ink covering his skin.

"You're staring." He smiled, his eyes still closed. I blushed, turning to find clothes to change into.

"I was not." I said, grabbing jeans and a Neighbourhood band shirt. I found a Creme coloured knit sweater to go over top, turning to see Harry standing and stretching.
He had quite a nice body-

Rylie. Stop it.

"Toss me that shirt please." He let out a breathe, pointing to a black v-neck across the room. I did as I was asked, taking my own clothes and going to the bathroom for a quick shower.

"What exactly do you need?" Harry whined, messing with the stereo in my beat up truck. He had been acting less like a complete asshole today.

"Well, school starts next week and I could use some supplies." I said, swatting his hand away and changing the stereo to my own CD.

Female Robbery by The Neighbourhood started paying and I turned it up a bit as we stopped at a red light.

"I forgot to mention I liked your shirt. I saw them in concert last year. I have to say it was one of the best experiences ever." Harry said, tapping his feet to the songs beat. I gawked at him while I drove.

"You went to a Neighbourhood concert?" I asked, totally jealous. He chuckled as I parked at the mall.

"Yeah." He said, unbuckling his seatbelt.

"So unfair." I shook my head, getting out of the vehicle and meeting Harry on the other side of the truck. A breeze came in and I crossed my arms, glad I had grabbed my cardigan. Harry was close in step with me, keeping his hands to himself for a change.

"I always come shopping on Tuesdays because no one is ever here." I explained as we entered the doors. Harry nodded, looking around at the variety of shops. I started leading the way, going to find someplace where I could find school supplies.

As we entered the store I grabbed a plastic shopping basket.

"Do you need anything?" I asked Harry as we walked down an isle filled with multiple back packs. He hadn't said much at all and I couldn't help but wonder why.
