-Grace-
I'd sent Harry down to my room to collect my clothes and presents. I checked my phone to see if there was any update at the airport - no - still storms across the UK. Reports say there could be a flight late tomorrow or early the morning after, at least it was something.
I plugged my phone into Harry's charger and began to blow dry my hair. My hair ran halfway down my back so I could do lots of different things with it, I had natural highlights so it wasn't just plain brown.
"How many clothes did you bring?" Harry moaned dragging my polka dot suitcase into the room.
"Well I couldn't decide what to bring so I just chucked a load of stuff into the suitcase." I shouted over the hair dryer.
Tying my hair into a bun i stared at te choice of dresses, green, red or black? i picked the red dress with long lace sleeves. Although it was just the seven of us (Harry, Liam, Zayn, Niall, Louis and Sophia) I thought I'd make an effort, it is christmas after all!
Harry walked up behind me wrapping his arms around my waist, "you look beautiful." He said kissing my neck "red suits you" - another kiss - "we better go join the others." - one last kiss.
Everyone sat around the tiniest christmas tree that Niall had gone out and bought late last night. We passed around our presents.
I bought Harry a navy blue t shirt and a watch. "I thought Navy blue would be a small change rather than your whole wardrobe of black ones." I smiled.
"I like it thank you babe, and the watch is pretty cool too." He kissed me on the cheek. "Time for you to open yours."
Harry handed me my present, a small rectangle package wrapped in the most Christmassy paper consisting of christmas trees, reindeer, holly, Santa and elves!
I tore the paper and inside was the naked 3 palette. "Oh my god. Thank you so much!" I had to contain my excitement. This was my idea of heaven. Everyone was laughing at my reaction of shock and amazement.
Once all the presents were opened and the paper was tidied away we sat down to watch Elf. "This is the best christmas film." I whispered to Harry.
He disagreed shaking his head "love actually for me."
We didn't have much of a christmas dinner as we all expected to be home by now. We had pizza, chicken soup, cookies and way to much cake.
Niall was the first to leave the table and lay down dramatically on the sofa "I've eaten way to much." He moaned.
"Is that even possible for you Niall?" Zayn laughed.
Liam took the opportunity to Skype his family "hey Zayn come through here and surprise my mum for christmas." He shouted down the stairs.
His mum has always had a soft spot for Zayn.
Harry and I sat on the corner of the sofa cuddled together. "Today's been better than I expected." I smiled playing with Harry's fingers. "How are you feeling?" I whispered.
"Fine." He whispered back stroking my cheek.
I watched Louis and Niall play Fifa. I could never get why boys were so obsessed over it, mind you they probably don't get girls obsessions over clothes and make up.
Soon I felt my eyelids become heavier, I cuddled into Harry more tucking my head beside his.
"Did you see that." Harry stood up alerted.
"See what?"
Niall and Louis looked confused.
"The shadow."
"What shadow. What the fuck are you talking about?" Louis asked, a laugh in his voice.
"The shadow walking around the room. It not funny." Harry snapped.
"Harry it's okay, let's go into your room." I tugged at his hand but he pulled away. "Please Harry. You're safe." I whispered. He walked into his room.
"It's following us." His expression was terrified.
"Close your eyes, don't think about it." I reached for Harry's hand but he jerked his arm away, his knuckles colliding with my upper lip. I breathed in deeply to stop myself from making a noise.
"I'm sorry. I- I didn't mean to hit you, I swear I didn't."
I walked into the bathroom grabbing a face cloth, soaking it in cold water, my breath was sharp as I applied it to my lip.
I knew Harry didn't mean to hurt me, he got a fright when I touched his hand. Who was I kidding, pretending I knew how to deal with this, how am I supposed to calm him down when he sees people and hears voices.
Trying to stop myself from crying made it worse to hold tears in. How was I meant to help Harry when I was so scared myself?
