Up above: Donnie Wyler played by Keanu Reeves

This book probably seems kinda boring rn but it's because the relationship between Harry and Adriana hasn't been established properly and I don't want to rush it. Gotta ease into it, ya feel?

Lives a battle between pride and shame ✧

   "Stay with me."

Adriana flicked her gaze over her shoulder with a light frown on her face, gazing at Harry who lay on the bed, naked under the sheets. It had been a few minutes after their intimate actions. Adriana had cleaned up a bit before returning to find her clothes. She wanted to leave when Harry was asleep but for some reason he was staying up, waiting for her to join him in bed. She exhaled through her nose as her eyes met his pleading ones, unable to refuse his adorable pouty face.

"I can't," she answered shortly, pulling her bra on and doing the clasp.

Harry sat up with a frown on his face, leaning his back against the headboard. She stood up from the bed, ducking down to scoop her panties and pull them up her legs.

"Why not?" he simply asked, earning another look from her.

"Because I have someplace else to be," she said in response, causing Harry's frown to deepen.

"At like 2 in the morning?" Harry arched a brow at Adriana, making her scoff lightly, shaking her head.

"Of course," she said sarcastically, turning to gaze at him properly with her hands on her hips.

Harry's gaze flickered to Adriana, studying her body for a second; the only thought in his mind was how perfect she looked. The white lingerie she had on was gorgeous, the lace bra perfectly clinging to the swells of her breasts. His gaze travelled down her torso, noticing the baby abs that peaked out, a clear indication that she worked out to keep her body fit and in such perfect shape. When his gaze darted back up to meet hers, a knowing smirk drawled onto her lips, making his cheeks flush a little before he pulled on a tight frown and puckered his lips.

"Fine, go on, I don't want to keep you from whatever you have to do that's so urgent at two in the morning," Harry said with a grumble, not al all trying to hide it as he pouted and folded his arms over his chest. "But you have to stay next time."

"Next time?" Adriana arched her brows at his words, making slight hesitation appear on his features.

"There will be a next time, right?" he checked, watching her bite her lip, pondering quietly.
