Finding Yourself

chapter 14

I walked into Hannahs and saw her laying on the sofa with tear stained cheeks.

"Hannah, what's wrong?!" I gasp sitting down next to her.

She wiped her eyes and sighed. "It's stupid!"

"You know you can tell me!"

"Its Liam." She said as another tear escaped her eye. "I miss him so much." She began to cry again and I wrapped my arms around her.

"I know you do Han, I'm so sorry. I thought you was okay?" I rocked her back and forth and she sniffled.

"I didn't want you to worry and you was with Harry." She shrugged. "Seeing you so happy with him just makes me miss all the relationshippy stuff, so It's not just Liam... I do miss him of course I do, but I just want a happy relationship again." She sighed drying her eyes.

"Oh fucking hell." I groaned. "You should of said before I told you about Harry on the phone this morning, I feel awful now."

"No! I asked you about him, It's not your fault. I am interested in you and Harry, of course I want you to be happy, I love that you're happy. I don't know, I'm just emotional right now I guess because it's coming up to a year since we split... plus I'm on my period so I'm a hormonal mess right now!" She laughed.

"Oh Hannah..." I laughed hugging her again.

"Thanks for being here, I don't know where I'd be if it wasn't for you." She smiled.

"Don't be stupid, I'm always gunna be here for you! Don't start getting all soppy on me!" I smirked. "I'll get us a drink."

"You better make it alcoholic, there's wine in the fridge." She called.

I poured her a glass of wine and got myself some water.

"I'm driving, I can't drink." I smiled. "But you can, I bet you need it."

"Too right!" She took a big gulp of wine and breathed heavily.

I hated seeing her so upset when there's nothing I can do to help.

We lounged around on the sofa and Hannah carried on drinking. She started getting tipsy but at least she wasn't crying anymore.

After two more glasses her words were slurring and she was drifting off.

"C'mon Han, I'll take you to bed." I laughed.

Luckily she was light so I could carry her upstairs.

I placed her on the bed and tucked her in.

"Thanks Mel" She said with her eyes still closed. "Love ya."

"Love you too" I laughed, rolling my eyes. "I'll ring you tomorrow!"

I switched out the light and closed the door.

I cleaned up downstairs and then went to check on Hannah again before I left, she was sound asleep, snoring lightly. That'll be down to the wine. I went back down, and locked her door before climbing into my car.

It was already 9. I hope Harry still wanted me round. I thought about texting him and then realised I didn't even have his number.

Good one Mel.

"I was beginning to think you had stood me up!" Harry laughed as he opened the door, pulling me into a hug.

"Hannah got a little drunk so I had to take her to bed." I said rolling my eyes.

"That sounds strangely familiar." He smirked wrapping his arm around me. "Is she alright?"

"

Yeah she just misses Liam, well she misses being in a relationship and being happy with someone. I think she's just lonely, I don't know. She'll be alright, she's stronger than you think." I smiled. "I was going to text you but I realised I didn't have your number."

"I was thinking the same thing, pass me your phone." He said, removing his from his pocket. He tapped his number into my phone and rang himself so he would have mine.

"There." He smiled. "Now we'll never have that problem again."

He laid down on the sofa and pulled me on top of him. My body was laying on his chest with my legs on either side of his hips and his hands rested lightly on my lower back. It was surprisingly comfortable. He was warm and smelt so good, a mixture of aftershave and chewing gum. It was weird because I still hadn't known him awfully long but I felt like I'd known him for ages, I liked being around him a lot actually.

"You'll still stay here tonight won't you?" He said, rubbing small circles on my back with his thumbs.

"Yeah, If you still want me too." I smiled.

"Of course I do, I was just checking you hadn't changed your mind."

"No, you're not getting rid of me that easily." I giggled.

Harry laughed and kissed my head as The Vow came back on. "Good."

When the film finished it was quite late and we both got tired. Harry carried me to bed and plonked me down on his black bed sheets before handing me my bag.

I pulled out a baggy tshirt and quickly got changed while Harry was in the bathroom.

When he came back in, I was infront of the mirror pulling my hair up into a bun. His eyes widened when he saw me.

"Well hello pretty girl who is sleeping in my bed tonight." He laughed punching the air.

"Oh shush." I giggled.

I climbed into the bed and watched Harry as he pulled his tshirt over his head and dropped his jeans.

Urgh why is so damn attractive?

He crawled in next to me and slid down a little so our faces were at the same level.

"Night Harry." I smiled.

"Sleep tight pretty girl." He said before kissing my lips. His fingers found mine and he wrapped his around them, kissing me one more time.

I closed my eyes and I was out like a light.
