Chapter 22: The Snow Storm

i wake up. I turn my head, looking up. There i see Harry looking down at me. My head is resting on Harrys lap. He smiles when he sees my face. I rub my eyes and nuzzle my face into his stomach.

"One thing that you probably noticed the most about me is that i sleep way too much."

Harry chuckles and responds, "please, you need it. You don't choose to sleep your body tells you to. You need as much sleep as you can get."

He places the strands of hair in my face away from my eyes.

"i'm so glad i have you, i don't know what i would do without you here."

I look up at his eyes.

"You are so cold." Harry says, "here let me get a blanke-"

"No, its okay" i tell him as i sit up lifting my head off his lap.

Harry hugs me.

"Then i am your blanket" he says while smiling.

I lay my head on his shoulder.

The front door then opens.

"Hey hun" my mom says walking in, "snow is insane out there! Never seen so much in my life!"

"Why are you home early?" I ask, she has never been home at 3:00PM.

"The snow is supposed to be getting worse soon, so my boss let everyone out early to get home safely." She says. She then looks at Harry, then back at me.

"So, what have you two been up to?"

"Oh, uh.." I look at Harry.

"Just talking a bit. Catching up whats been happening at school since shes been gone and stuff." Harry tells my mom.

I would have never come up with that so quick. And with that blank expression, gosh. I would have looked guilty as hell.

"Oh, nice." My mom says and walks into the kitchen.

"Look," Harry says turing in my direction whispering, "i should get home before the weather gets worse. But listen. I will come back whenever it stops, and remember, you have my number. Call me if anything happens, i will answer. I promise."

I chuckle,"you take care of me too much."

"Because i love you." Harry says looking at me straight in the eyes. "I love you so much." He says cupping my chin.

He kisses me.
