For Stasia (A Harry Styles Imagine)

It's a cold Friday night in December, right before Christmas, and you're sitting in your house drinking hot chocolate and watching White Christmas. You're enjoying the movie even though you've seen it a hundred times before and thinking about how happy you are to have a break from school. Suddenly, you hear the doorbell ring and reluctantly get up to answer the door. You expect to see a neighbor coming to talk to your parents or one of your sister's friends so you're surprised when you open the door and see five guys who go to your school. You recognize the blonde one, Niall, from classes and Zayn and Louis even though they are older than you. You've known Liam since you were younger because your mothers are friends, but you don't know the fifth boy. Before you can think of a reason for them being there, Liam counts off a beat and they start singing one of your favorite Christmas carols. You stand in stunned silence for a minute before you realize how good their voices sound together and your surprise turns to amazement. They finish the song and you offer a kind of awkward applause not knowing what else to do. You smile and say, "Thank you so much, that was great!" They smile back and you notice how pink their cheeks and noses are and you think to yourself, "they must be freezing!" You say, "Do you guys want to come inside for a little while? I can make hot chocolate." They are quick to agree and they each thank you as they walk through the door, the unknown boy lingering a little longer than the rest of them. You follow them into the living room where the movie is still playing and you hear Louis say how much he loves it as he drags Niall and Liam over to the couch to watch with him. Zayn and the other boy walk over to sit on the floor in front of them and you walk into the kitchen to make the hot chocolate. You have the milk heating in a pot on the stovetop and you're about to add the chocolate when you hear a deep voice behind you. You jump a little and turn around to see the boy you don't know leaning in the doorway. You must look confused because he repeats, "Do you need any help with that?" You smile and blush a little as you say, "Sure, can you grab some mugs out of the cabinet? I'm Stasia, by the way. I don't think we've met before." He says, "Well, we've never been properly introduced but I've definitely seen you around. I'm Harry." You look again at the tall, beautiful boy and his dark mess of curly hair and bright green eyes and you wonder how you've never noticed him before. You finish mixing the hot chocolate and pour it into festive mugs for all of the boys, feeling Harry's eyes on you the whole time. He walks over to you and picks up three of the mugs to help you carry them into the living room. You sit down on the couch next to Niall and Harry sits right next to you, making it impossible to have any personal space but you don't exactly mind being so close to him. Niall, Liam, Louis, Zayn, and Harry end up staying to watch all of White Christmas and two more of your favorite Christmas movies. The six of you talk, laugh, play games, and just enjoy each other's company until eventually, you all doze off, your head resting on Harry's shoulder.
