          The sound of footsteps woke me up. I felt weightless, like someone was carrying me. Where am I? I tried opening my eyes, but shut them when the light beamed brightly at them. I blinked, and tried to get a clearer view. A head of brown curls, and deep green eyes peered down at me." Wakey, wakey sleepy head." He teased. 

  I groaned, obviously not in the mood for his teasing. The sound of him kicking a door shut made me open my eyes up wider. He set me down on a plush mattress that was covered in a gray comforter." Where am I Harry? What time is it?" What happened last night?

It took him a minute to answer." You're at my house, and its 2:30 in the morning." He said, pulling off his white shirt. My eyes gazed over his body. I quickly pulled my eyes away and stared up at his smirking face.

" Now.." He trailed off." Why were you asleep on the beach?"

I shrugged.

 I hadn't even realized that I fell asleep." I went for a walk, sat down for a while, and I probably fell asleep without realizing it." I said groggily. He nodded." Can you put on a shirt?" I asked yawning. My cheeks burned, as I caught myself staring at him again.

He smirked again." Why? Am I bothering you?" He teased, sitting down next to me. Our knees brushed against each others, I played with my fingers nervously; he didn't seem to mind about how close we were. 

He sensed my nervousness, but instead of backing off, he simply put his arm around my waist. He pulled me in close so our shoulders were touching." You feel cold."

I rolled my eyes.Thank you Captain obvious. I would have said that, but to my advantage his body heat warm me up.

He pulled away, making me frown a little but cover up my disappointment, and walked to his dresser. He pulled out a hoodie, and come back over to me, helping me put it on.

He lifted me up, causing me to squeal, and put me on his lap. I squirmed, trying to get off." Harry." I whined. He didn't listen, and pulled me in closer." Harry! I need to get home, I have work!" I shoved at his shoulder, but it did really nothing.

" Stay." He said, pressing his lips to my forehead. I pouted. I could either stay with Harry, and potentially get fired for missing work, or I could go hoome and curl up in bed with soft pillows and warm blankets. Though, I didn't know where I was. Sure I know this is Harry's house, but I didn't know where we are exactly.

" Harry?"

" Hmm?" He hummed in my neck, sending shivers down my spine." Where do you live?" He shifted his head to look up at me, and gave me a small smirk." Why don't you look out the window love."

He loosened his grip on me, allowing me to slide off his lap and go over to the window. There, there right in front of me was my house. He's my neighbor? 

" You never told me we were neighbors!" I narrowed my eyes at him. He just shrugged, acting like it was no biggie." Because it was supposed to be a surprise!" He said a-matter-of-fact, and tried to hide a small smile. I frowned.

" Well bye!" I walked toward the door, but I felt a grip on my hand and I was suddenly spun around.

" Where are you going?"

" Home." He pouted." Why?" I looked at him annoyed." I have work in a few hours so I'd like some sleep." His mouth curled up into a smirk again." You could always sleep here?" He cheekily offered.

" Bye." I turned once again, but his voice stopped me." Can I at least have a goodnight kiss then?" Is he kidding? Fine, but just on the cheek.  I rolled my eyes.

      I went to kiss his cheek, but he turned his head so our lips met. My eyes widened in surprise or fear. I'm not sure, which kind of scared me. Butterflies flew around my stomach. My cheeks heated as he rested his hand on my waist. He pulled away and spun me around, so my back was pressed against his chest.

" G'night Soph." He whispered in my ear. His breath hit my cheek, which sent my stomach into a frenzy. He patted my backside, causing me to stumble forward. 

I walked out of his house, still feeling the tingles on my lips from his. The softness, and comforting warmth of Harry made me want to run back inside. But instead I walked to my house and went to sleep, still thoughts of Harry on my mind.

Okay so this is the shortest chapter I've done in a while. :/ Not my best at all. 

If you could rate this from 1 to 10 what would it be?

I'm hoping its good. :)
