Temptation

Chapter 43

( here is the double update :D

It is short, but only because this is the double update! )

I walk into my room, I feel like I haven't been here in weeks which in reality has only been about two days.

Harry follows behind me, I tell him to sit on the bed and wait while I go into my room area where I keep my art station and supplies.

The room feels cold, the reason being that I haven't been in here for weeks. With everything going on, I never found the time to get into doing a drawing.

I reach up top of the shelves that hold the number of binders filled with pictures and drawing I've either taken or drawn over the times of my life. I look up to see try to make out what the bold words say on the side.

I finally come across the binder that labels "happiness" on the side in big black bold bubble letters. I grab a hold of the big red binder and smile at it before walking out of the room and into my bedroom where Harry waits.

"I swear if that's school work I'm throwing it out of the damn window." He smirks and I laugh.

"It's not." I place it on the bed and I sit beside it. I move my hair to one side and place the big binder onto my lap.

"I have a little story for you." I tell him with a smile.

"Is that so?" He raises an eye brow and I nod.

"Don't laugh, just listen." I tell him.

I run my fingers over the cover of the red binder. I feel like I haven't touched this book in so long, it's been a while since I've needed to put something in it I guess.

"I've had this binder since I was ten." I say and tell the binder on its cover. "Over the years I would out things in it. I would take my cameras and snap pictures of things that would capture my eye or brighten my day somehow. In the behininng," I open up the book to show him the first page. "As you can tell, looks a bit childish, I know." She pictures are just of flowers and puppies and other little things that make little children happy.

"Throughout the rest are pictures of old friends, family members and other things. All of these things are what make me happy." I smile at the remembrance of placing things into the laminated folds of the pages almost every week.

I look back up at Harry who holds a straight face, probably wondering where I'm going with this.

"The last time I put something in here was a year ago. I haven't gotten the feeling of having something make me so happy to deserve a place in this book...until now."

Harry frowns and I smile.

I grab my bag and open the zipper to take out the camera that I've grabbed this morning before school.

I hold it next to me and look back at Harry who seems to have wide eyes.

"I want you in this book." I tell him and he keeps a straight face.

"I don't really do pictures." Is all he says and I feel my smile fade.

"One picture." I hold up a finger. "Please." I add and give him a bribing smile.

"I make you happy?" He asks and he tilts his head to one side and looks into my eyes.

"Extremely." He smiles and I smile back.

"If it makes you feel any better I'll get in it with you?" I offer he finally agrees with a groan.

I scoot over next to him. I hold the camera away, arm length and I tell him to smile. The flash makes my vision see spots when I blink.
