Harry's POV

"You're staying here tonight then?" Arnold asked 

"I was just going to drive back..." I started

"Of course you're staying," he cut me off "I'm not letting you drive home this late."

"Thanks." I smiled

He was such a nice guy, completely different to Lee's Mum.

"I'll show you to the guest room." he grinned then gave me a tour and stopped outside of a bedroom

"No funny business, Harry." he warned then walked into his room

I entered the room which I was going to be sleeping in. Lee had went to her room about an hour ago because she had to be up early for University.

I stepped out of my clothes, then fell onto the large bed.

*****************

I awoke to a girl screaming. Lee.

I shot out of bed and ran into the bedroom next to mine. She was sitting up in her bed, eyes wide and breathing heavily

"Hey, what's wrong?" I asked quietly, walking over to her

"I...I thought I saw someone." she stuttered

"Where?" I asked

"Over there." she pointed to the corner of her room, by the window

I checked over in the corner and behind the heavy curtains that covered her windows.

"Is everything okay?" Arnold appeared at the door way

"I thought I saw someone." Lee answered again

"I think it might have just been a bad dream." I reassured her

"You never get bad dreams." Her Dad pointed out

"I don't know." she breathed out

"Try and get back to sleep sweetie." he said and turned to leave

"Harry? Can you stay?" she asked quietly

I looked at Arnold and he nodded, then left.

That was when I realized I was only in my boxers. 

I joined Lee in her large bed and pulled her closer to me.

"Go back to sleep babe." I whispered, kissing her forehead

I stroked her hair as her head lay on my chest, her arm draped over my torso, fingers gripping my side.

She wasn't dreaming. The window was open, someone was in here. And I think I know who. But I'm not worrying her by telling her.

 *****************

A knock on the front door wakened me

"Lee, it's Niall!" I heard Arnold call

"Shit, I've slept in." she groaned, untangling herself from me and sitting up in bed

"Just don't go in today." I kissed along her shoulder

"It's my second day, I can't stop going already." she giggled, getting out of bed and pulling clothes out of her wardrobe then going into her ensuite

She came back out a few minutes later with black tights, denim shorts, a black tank and a tartan flannel over it.

She pulled her black vans on and tied her blonde hair up. It seemed so much longer, even though we had only been apart a few days. She fluffed it out at the top and grabbed her bag
