HIM

CHAPTER 56

SOPHIA'S P.O.V:
We went back to Harry's house and slept in each other's arms as usual. We were both excited for the next day. I woke up the next day earlier than Harry. I tidied up the whole place and I found that it was still 8 a.m. I don't know why I wake up that early, it's holiday.
I have bought some decorations to decorate my gift for Harry. and then I started to work on it. I finished in 2 hours. It was 10:20 A.M and I had a hot bath qhich made my muscles after all that work. But it is worth it, I hope Harry will love it as I do.
As I got out of the bathroom, Harry was calling for me.
"Good Morning baby." I said walking downstairs with my wet hair.
"Baby! Merry Christmas."
"Merry Christmas." I said and I teased him by acting as if I am going to kiss him but I just gave him a peck on his cheek.
"What are we going to do today?" I asked.
"Just stay together and if you want to go for a walk to the park before we celebrate the new year here, it would be great."
"Great. We can go for a walk by 5 P.M or something. I am preparing a new recipe for you that I had learnt lately and I want to cook today. We'll eat it and then we can go for that walk, fine?"
"Fine, but make sure that we don't get sick after that." He said sarcastically.
"Haha.. Funny." I said coldly and then we both laughed.
I went to the kitchen and started cooking. It was a cajun chicken Alfredo, I have eaten it a couple of yers ago when I was going on a trip with dad and stopped by a small restaurant and they didn't serve except cajun chicken alfredo. It tasted really delicious, it has been the best food I have ever eaten. I know that I won't make it that good, but I'll at least try.
Harry came with me and helped me with the food. He chopped the vegetables and cut the chicken.
"You are gonna be a good husband by the way." I said.
"I am gonna be your good husband." He emphasised the word "your". I loved how he said it, I have never thought about us being a husband and a wife, we are still in high school. We still have a year in high school till we go to college and then we work and after that we can think about marrying each other. It's still a long time, but we don't know how it's gonna be even tomorrow, our relationship is unexpectable.
"And I'll be your beautiful wife." I teased him.
"Sure darling."
"Yeah."
"Since we brought up marriage, what would you like to name your kids with?"
"Umm, boys or girls?"
"Do you want a boy or girl at first?"
"I don't really know, if I get married, I would like both, but I like girls so much because they are just cute and fluffy like teddy bears and they are like your little toy that you like to take everywhere with you."
I laughed at his description of baby girls.
"What name would you call her?"
"Dunno, maybe fluffy." He siad and then we both laughed.
"That's a good one."
"Yeah, and you?"
"Gotta admit it, your choice of names is weird but I like that name."
"We are both weird baby."
I laughed."Yeah."
"We didn't discuss if it was a boy what would you name him?"
"Let's just take it as if it is gonna be a girl for now."
"Fine. It's gonna be Fluffy Harry Edward Styles."
"I am really fliffy can't you see?" He started playing with hos fluffy curly brown hair, he looked so adorable as if he was a little boy playing with his fluffy little teddy bear.
"Yeah." I laughed and then I went to play with his fluffy hair as well.
"Do you know what this move in dancing is called?"
"No?"
"The hair dryer." I said.
"Hahahah. Yeah makes sense."
I, we finished cooking by 1 p.m. It was really early to eat so, we sat together for a while cuddling an so. We watched home alone the whole series together, covered with a blanket, eating popcorn and we laughed so hard that our stomachs hurt, it was amazing though I have watched that movie like millions of times but it was different with him. It was about 6:30 P.M when we finished watching the movie.
"I am gonna prepare dinner."
"Great, I am starving already."
"Fine." He helped me prepare the dishes and I put the food in the microwave to warm up. I put the food in the plates and then we were ready to eat.
"Taste and tell me how it is."
"Okay." He said as if he was scared. He took a bite and then his eyes got wide.
"What?"
"They are delicious."
"Really!"
"Yeah marvellous!" I tasted a bite and it was actually good.
"Uhh! I am revealed." I sighed. As we were eating I could see that his eyes were glassy as if he waa going to cry.
"What's wrong?"
"I just remembered that mum used to cook us that recipe when I was young, I loved it so much and you made it so close to its taste."
"I should be proud of myself, then." I said sarcastically.
"Of course." He said.
We both finished eating and then we got dressed, I wore a navy leather jacket, beige pullover under it, a blue jeans, a beige ice cap and brown short boots. It was suitabl for the freezing weather outside. 
Harry was wearing a grey pullover and a black jeans.
"You look really handsome, you know." I said.
"You don't look as good as me, you admitted it yourself." He said arrogantly but with a smirk on his face.
"Yeah. I know." I laughed.
We went out, I pushed his wheelchair walking to the park that I saw Harry crying on the second day of school. It has been like four months since that happened, but it feels like it has been ages not months.
"Do you remember when we first saw each other in that park?" I said as soon as we sat there.
"Yeah, I was crying like a little girl." He said laughing.
"Yeah." I said laughing as well.
"What had brought you there anyway?"
"I was running in the morning as usual and thought that it would be fine if I relax here a little bit and then I found you crying."
"Umm. yeah."
We sat silently for a while watching couples walking in the park holding hands and kissing, watching everyone holding a Christmas present or a Christmas tree, everyone is happy, what I love about Christmas is that everyone is having a good time, everyone just forgets everything that would bother them.
"You know? the most think I like about this Christmas is what?"
"Me, right?" I said laughing.
"Yeah of course you and that food that you had cooked tonight." He laughed amd I punched him lightly on his arm.
"Shut up! you liked it."
"I loved it."He said exaggerating.
"Anyways, what is the most thing that you like about that Christmas?"
"This is the tenth Christmas that I spend without mum, okay?" His voice was become raspy and he was trying to hide it.
"Yeah."
"And on the first one, I spent it in my room crying because every Christmas we would go amd buy the tree together and decorate it together, we would choose the presents together, she has never ever refused to bring me a toy that I wanted and she always told me that I am the man of the house and she would give me the money to pay and..." He was crying by now amd I hugged him, he put his head on my shoulder.
"She was perfect."
"I know, Harry, I know. You gotta be happy for her, she is in a better place, she is happy now, you gotta know that she is living a better life than her life befor her death, at least there is no Edward there."
Harry laughed and it is the best thing ever.
"I am not crying because I am sad that she is gone, I am just so happy that I have someone who make me feel as safe as I used to feel when she hugged me like that on the Christmas day. I know now that this world with all its evilness and cruelness that there are still some few people that are so kind, caring, innocent, genuinely beautiful from inside and outside that make this world's balance, that make us have a reason to wale up everyday and go on with our lives." I cried after that amazing poem-like words. I love him so much. I hugged him tightly.
"I love you." I said.
"I adore you." He said. We sat for another two hours telling our stories from our previous Christmases.
"You know like when I was about 6 years old, I used to thonk that Santa Clause was real, I saw dad and mum putting the doll that I had asked for next to me and when I faced them with what I had seen they told me that Santa Clause was so fat to enter from my window so he told them to put it instead of him." I said. We laughed at our Christmas tales until about 10 p.m. We walled back home in about an hour, we walked a little and stopped a little. It was the best time ever.
"Let's bring some wine?" He said.
"No, I don't drink."
"Neither do I."
"So, why?"
"It's Christmas."
"Fine." He had a point of view anyway. We went to the drinks department in the market and we bought a bottle of really good wine, where did he bring that money from?
"Where do you get that money? On our day in the mall you paid for all your clothes, for our food and now that?"
"Actually I do something that I am not sure that you are going to like it."
"Do you buy drugs or what?" I said sarcastically.
"Yes, I do, I tried to stop it more than once but, I couldn't it makes alot of money." He said so seriously.
"What? Are you kidding me?" I said worriedly, I was shocked.
"Actually... Yes!" He said and laughed.
"I hate you." I said and punched him.
"I know." He said and he was still laughing that he held his stomach out of pain.
"Seriously! How do you get all that money?"
"I write songs and sell them to some famous artists, that's why I have alot of money."
"Really?"
"Yeah."
"You gotta be a good song writer!"
"You'll see." He said.
We made it back home by 11:15 P.M.
"We gotta get ready for the countdown of the new year." I said.
"Yeah, bring some cups to drink that wine."
"Okay." I went to the kitchen to bring two cups.
"Here you are."
"Thank you." He put them on the table in the living room and then he put just a little bit in each cup. I took mine and was about take a sip.
"No, we're gonna drink it by midnight."
"Why?"
"To celebrate the new year."
"Okay."
"Ah! I bought you a new pyjama for Christmas!"
"Really?"
"Yeah!"
"And what about you?"
"I bought one also."
"Where are they?"
"Upstairs."
"Go and get them, quickly."
"Okay."
I went upstairs and wore mine. The looked just like a Christmas tree, on the back there was an arrow pointing at my right and saying "My man." I liked so much, it is a little bit funny, actually alot but I love it, his pyjama was the same as mine but "My woman" was written on the back. I went downstairs and Harry has opened the television on CNN which brings the countdown.
"Wow!" He said with wide eyes.
"I look beautiful, right?"
"Yeah so hot." He laughed.
"Guess what?"
"What?"
"Yours looks exactly like this one."
"What?"
"Yeah.
"No, I am not gonna wear it."
"You have to."
"No."
"Look what's written on the back."
"I gotta admit it, I like it, Forgive me for these lies." He said and looked at the ceiling.
"Shut up! c'mon wear it."I said laughing.
"Fine." He gave up and wore it.
He looked so funny but still handsome.
"Close your eyes." He said.
"Why?"
"Just do it."
"Fine." I closed my eyes and I could hear some drawers opening and closing.
"What are you doing?"
"Just wait." He said and the after a couple of seconds.
"Open your eyes." I opened them and looked at him. He was putting that red big nose of the clowns on his nose. He looked hilarious.
"You look... hilarious." I said laughing.
"I know."
"Do you have another one?"
"I'll see." He searched in the drawers in the table.
"Found one."
"Yaaay." He gave it to me and I put it too. I approached him and brushed our red moses together. We laughed.
"We'll start now the countdown, Happy New Year." The host in the television said.
"C'mon let's get ready." He said.
"We sat on the couch, held our cups. And said the countdown.
"10..9..8..7..6..5..4..3..2..1.. HAPPY NEW YEAR!" We both said and then we kissed.
"Take a sip." He said after the kiss. I took a sip of the wine but it didn't taste really good, I didn't like it. Maybe because I don't drink in the first place.
"How is it?" Harry asked.
"Good." I lied.
"You didn't like it." He said.
"Actually yes."
"Neither did I." He said.
"Really?"
"Yeah! We paid all that for nothing! They are liars about how good it is."
"Yeah."
"What are we gonna do now?" He asked.
"Dunno." We sat quietly for a a minute or so.
"I know that we should open the presents and so in the morning but I can't wait till the morning."
"What present?"
"Just close your eyes."
"Are you gonna wear a mask or what?" He laughed.
"No, really."
"Fine!" He closed his eyes. I pushed his wheelchair to the backyard. I opened the door, switched the baby lights that I had hanged all over the back yard and opened the tape with a slow music.
"Open your eyes." I said and he opened his eyes. He looked around him as if he didn't believe what he was seeing. The yard was full of flowers and little bushes, I hanged baby lights all over the yard. I put new benches, a brown small table with four brown chairs around it.
That's how it looked like. 👇🏻

On the other part of the yard, I put a white swing and hanged a little light on the tree above it with some flowers.

"Wow!!" He said crying.
"Why are you crying?"
"This looks perfect."
"Thank you."
"No, Thank you." He emphasised yoi.
"You know what? Mum was the only one who cared anout this yard and after she died, no one cared about it and I saw it deteriorating over the years and it was describing me, I was breaking down by the years. In this yard, I had alot of memories with mum here, we had a tent right there, she always told me stories and tales right there." He pointed at the part where the swing was.
"I know!! She is the perfect not the garden."
"Both actually, and we can add you to the list." He said.
"Thank you!" I blushed.
"Can you bring me my guitar?"
"Okay."
I went upstairs quickly and brought the guitar that I gave him as a present. I went downstairs again. Why would he ask for it?
"Thank you, can you help me sit on the swing?"
"Of course!" I helped him and sat next to him.
He started playing on his guitar and out of nowhere he said:

I was just alone in this world, I used to think that I would rather die. My life was surrounded with dark thoughts and lies. you came to brighten up my world without any warnin', you stole my heart and it was splendid darlin'.

You fly like a dove in my sky, you are just beautiful in my eye.
You fly like a dove in my sky, you are just beautiful in my eye.

You are the queen of my kingdom.
You are the sparkling star in my darkness.
I know it doesn't make any sense.
But I don't care what you the people think.
You broke my isolating fence.
You captured my eyes in just a blink.

You fly like a dove in my sky, you are just beautiful in my eye.
You fly like a dove in my sky, you are just beautiful in my eye.

You are the angel in that evil world.
Everytime you are near me I am utterly thrilled.
With your love I feel I am safe.
But When you are away I chafe.

You fly like a dove in my sky, you are just beautiful in my eye.
You fly like a dove in my sky, you are just beautiful in my eye.

I don't wanna be on my own.
I can't bear it when you're gone.
Think of how much time has been wasted.
When you are away, life is so bitter to be tasted.

You fly like a dove in my sky, you are just beautiful in my eye.
You fly like a dove in my sky, you are just beautiful in my eye.

You are the light that leads me home.
Can't live without you, you're my backbone.
Wish I would drown in your eyes.
Everytime you take me to your paradise.

You fly like a dove in my sky, you are just beautiful in my eye.
You fly like a dove in my sky, you are just beautiful in my eye.
