I'm Already Broken - A One Direction Fanfic

Chapter 7

Ch.7 Beautiful Mess

Harry's P.O.V.

When I woke up Elena still lay sound asleep in my arms. I didn't want to wake her, she was so peaceful when she slept.  I slowly lifted my arm off her but she stirred sightly and turned to face me. With eyes still closed, she nuzzled her nose into my chest. What was I going to do with this girl? Her beauty astounded me and the butterflies she gave me hardly helped. I cautiously got up, careful not to stir her. I took a quick shower and when I got out I was suprised not to see her in bed still. It was well before seven.

"Elena?"  I peeked around the corner to see the door open. I hope she didn't skip out on me again. I crept downstairs slowly, avoiding all the creeky steps. I inched forward to the kitchen where I found her. I leaned up against the door and watched her be adorable. Her long blonde hair was in a very messy bun on the top of her head, my t-shirt only coming to the top of her slender legs. She had on mismatched socks and her makeup was all gone. She was wearing small pink panties and they looked quite nice on her. She was a mess. A beautiful mess. She tiptoed to reach the top shelf where the cereal was but she just wasn't tall enough. She sighed and as she turned to face me, she immediately blushed.

"I didn't know you were here." She stuttered.

"And I didn't know you were so beautiful in the morning." I gave her a loving smile and walked over to her. Her cool skin on mine. She wrapped her arms around my waist and I kissed her gently on the neck. She tasted like sugar. I never wanted to let go of her but we had to go see Niall today. I wish we could cavort around the house in our little amount of clothes all day, but we promised we'd be there. Besides, Niall was my brother.

"We should go get ready." I pulled away from her and flashed another cheeky smile.

"You're probably right." She agreed.

"After you, my lady." I followed her up the stairs. Waitching her dainty movements. Her hips swaying back and forth with every step. How did I get this amazing flawless woman? This angel sent from heaven?

We got upstairs and I followed her into the bedroom. She stripped off the t-shirt, leaving only her pink undies and a blue and yellow polka-dotted bra. I swear she never matched a day in her life. She rummaged through my closet for something to wear. She pulled off my Jack Wills hoodie better than I did. I dried my hair and shook like a wet dog. I looked up to see her staring at me giggling.

"I love your curls."

"I love you." I smiled and she returned the favor with a peck on my lips. Her lips tasted like honey.

She turned to rummage through my closet a bit more and I took off my towel. Me being naked is something she's used to. I say it's my worst habit, but it's really my best. She glances back and I see her blush. I slip on some boxers and some jeans. I meet her at my closet door. She has picked out a Plain grey fitted tee and my purple Jack Wills hoodie. I'm glad. She picks out a grey blazer for me and I put it on over a white t-shirt. We go downstairs after finihing up getting ready, and I kiss her at the base of the stairs. A soft romantic kiss at the most. She makes me want more than I can have and it's hard to control myself if I go to far.

We get in the car and head towards Nandos. I pick Niall up his favorite then head to the hospital. I get out of the car, and am greeted by Louis jumping into my arms. I pretend to grab his bum and he jumps down squealing.

"Hey! Save that for your girly friend! Katie is enough woman for this kid." What a dork. There was never a doubt in my mind we'd be any less than the best of friends. Elena started talking to her friends and Liam and Zayn joined Louis and I by my car.

"Cut the Larry crap! We all know Louis wants a mysterious guy." Zayn joked. He winked at Louis and we all laughed hysterically until our ribs ached. Poor Niall, missing out on the fun. We walked inside only to see him standing at the front desk, apparently checking himself out early, looking like a refreshed soul. He gave a huge grin and ran for the lot of us, tackling Liam first before being engulfed in a group hug. As we broke free he ran to Christina and kissed her.

"So how bout that ice skating?" Chimed in Liam with a playful grin.
