Madelyn's POV

I felt bad because I knew Liam was offering his house to help me out. Tonight was filled with mistakes and I knew I was just making more. I didn't want to scare him when he woke up and saw I wasn't there so I found a notepad and pen.

Got a ride home. I promise to call you soon. Thank you again for helping me out and I'm sorry. -Madelyn

I changed out of his shirt and put on my clothes leaving his shirt on the coffee table by the note. I walked outside and waiting for Harry's car. A car pulled up and it was pitched black, realizing it was almost 3:30 AM. Harry turned on his car light inside and watched me to make sure I got into his car.

"Hey Mads." He quietly said before yawning and turning the light off.

"Thanks for getting me." I said looking over at him. He was wearing a black shirt and plaid pants. I smiled at how cozy he looked and not even wanting to get changed for me.

"It's no problem. You alright?" He looked over at me as he turned down the music on his radio.

I nodded and rubbed my eyes, "Yeah, are you okay?"

"Just tired, I guess."

"You look cute." I admitted with a smile.

He laughed, "I was too lazy to change for you, Mads."

I scoffed and laughed again, "It's cute though!"

"Well thanks." He smiled and reached over to poke my leg. I giggled at the gesture and took his hand before he pulled away. I just wanted something to make me feel better. Harry always had a way of making me feel better and remind that things will be better one day. He didn't pull away and he squeezed my hand into his.

"I still can't believe you cursed me out." He said with a laugh. The red stop light flickering on his face as he talked.

"I was just... Don't bring it up." I laughed and drew circles on his thumb with my free hand.

"It was scary but a little hot."

"Excuse me?" I laughed and he squeezed my hand again.

"What! It's true. I've always wondered what you sounded like saying fuck."

"Harry!"

"Madelyn." He smirked over at me but couldn't help but laugh. "Say it."

"Harry, no. I don't curse."

"Whatever." He scoffed and chuckled again.

"Fuck." I said quickly with a laugh.

"Hey!" He laughed a bit louder and smiled, "There you go."

"Last time."

"Still hot." He admitted before pulling into my driveway. 

I rolled my eyes and sighed looking at my house. It was late and I was so tired but I didn't want to leave Harry.

"Are you going to school tomorrow... Well today."

"Wait. Oh my god." I let go of his hand to put it on my forehead and I looked at the time. "Harry!"

"What?" He laughed and kept his hand on my lap.

"I... I'm going to be falling asleep in class." 

"Take a sick day, you never skip."

"I can't just skip."

"Yes you can. I'll skip with you."

"Harry, you can't take off the day for me."

"Do you expect me to be capable of being in school tomorrow? I'll be on one hour of asleep." Harry then reached back for my hand and put it back in his to relax me. "Trust me; you're not going to be in trouble for taking the day off. You need the day to rest and I'll take the blame for you not being able to school. I got you sick, I 'unno." He laughed and sighed.

"Harry." I frowned and put my head on the window. 

"Are your parents still out of town?"

"Yeah, it's frustrating as hell."

"You should probably just talk to them and let them know how you feel, Mads. I feel awful that you're home alone all the time like that."

"I know my dad wishes he could be home more often but my mom literally doesn't care at all about me."

"Stop, she loves you."

"She cares more about her "fame groups" than me. I know she loves me but..."

"Yeah I get it... Well do you me to stay with you tonight?" He asked looking over at me. I looked at my house and back at him, peeking down at our hands and I nodded. 

"Yeah?" He asked me with a smile.

"Yeah."

Harry's POV

Tonight was a whole mess of emotions. It was only Tuesday morning and I was already dreading this week. I said everything I had to say and told Madelyn what she needed to hear. Knowing that Liam and her could have had sex made me annoyed. But strangely excited me that she wanted to get back at me for what happened. Somehow through everything we deal with, she always manages to make me smile. I don't think I thank her enough for everything she does for me. She makes me feel better about myself, she makes me feel like the genuine Harry that I keep down deep inside. She makes me happy; she reminds me things will be better one day. I wish I could do everything for her. I wish I could drop everything and just give her the world. She deserves that and more. To be honest, I think I could. I know her better than anyone else and I know how to make her smile. Fuck, I'm just too scared to lose her. 

I had to sneak out to get Mads since my parents were home. But I just wanted to be with her more, I needed her to remind me she wasn’t going to leave me. She kept holding my hand. I don't hold hands, actually I don't do a lot of things as we have learned. But I do it all for her. We walked in quietly and she sat at the edge of her bed. She yawned and watched me walk into the bed besides her. I smiled and motioned my head to allow her to lay down. 

"How do we go from screaming and yelling to laying in my bed?" She whispered with a laugh. 

"It's sort of our thing." I smiled and turned the light off on the nightstand before laying my head on my pillow. 

I figured she had already had fallen asleep. She was quiet and it was too dark in the bedroom. I could hear her breathing though. So I closed my eyes to fall asleep after her. 

"Harry?" Her voice was so quiet and I blinked a few times after.

"Yea-" I was cut off by the most surreal sensation on my lips. I didn't realize what was going on at first but a warm hand touched my cheek. She was kissing me. Her lips meshed so well against mine and it made my whole body feel numb. A good numb. Like I wanted to keep feeling it and explore more. The kiss was simple and sincere and it made me want to sink into the bed. 

"I... Sorry." I heard her voice speak after the kiss was broken. Her hand kept on my cheek. 

I was speechless. I'm usually not like this but I loved her. It was all I ever wanted to finally feel. 

"W-what was that for?"

It took her a few seconds to reply, "It just felt right."

It made me smile. Smile like a stupid school boy in a playground who had his first kiss by the most popular girl in fourth grade. I wanted to kiss her again, I wanted to grab her and tell her the truth. 

"It did." I whispered back. I wish I could see her; I wanted to know if she was blushing or smiling close to my face. I wanted to see her eyes, I just wanted her. 

"Goodnight Styles." She laughed quietly and rested into the bed again. I reached for her body and pulled her close to me.

"Goodnight Mads"
