Harry's POV
I glanced at the clock periodically, pacing around the living room nervously. It's 11.30 p.m and Y/N's still not back yet, like she said she would at 11.
She went to her sister's for a visit but I didn't tag along because I came home slightly later than that.
She left me a note on the coffee table which read: Went to my sis', be back at 11. Love, Y/N x
I told myself not to be so paranoid, that she probably just lost track of time but a niggling part of me had a feeling something bad has happened.
I sent her a few texts asking her where is she and that I'm really worried about her. She haven't replied to any so I waited till 12 to call her as I didn't want to sound too pathetic.
I haven't felt this helpless in a long time. I forced myself to sit down and watch some TV or something, anything that would make me relax but even as I turned on the TV to distract myself, my mind kept wandering back to Y/N.
Her flowing hair, her beautiful face that lights up every time she laughs...
What if she got into some trouble on the way back? What if she was involved in some kind of accident? I winced at that thought. I just couldn't bear to imagine.
Calm down, Harry. I convinced myself. Maybe she's not answering her texts and calls because her phone went out of battery? I must've left about 20 texts and calls by now. I even called her sister's number but none of them picked up.
It's half past 12 now and my worry expands, inflating like a balloon as time passes. Right now, I feel like I could burst with anxiety.
Y/N's POV
I creaked the front door open as softly as possible, just in case Harry's already asleep. I slowly squeezed myself through the small gap I opened and let myself in. I nearly gasp out loud when I saw Harry's familiar figure slumped in front of the TV, which brightened the room with white lights from time to time.
I tip-toed towards him. Harry's sound asleep, his arms crossed as he hugged his chest. Light snores escaped his lips and his eyebrows were furrowed. His chest expanded and contracted rhythmically.
I immediately know that Harry had stayed up waiting for me to come home. I switched off the TV and softly set the remote back down on the table.
I stood in front of Harry and leaned down and tuck a few strands of his long curls out of his face. I gently stroked the side of his face and whispered: "Harry? It's me, I'm home love."
Harry's eyes fluttered open slowly and once he saw my face hanging inches above him, he immediately unwrapped his long arms and pulled me into a bear hug. He held me so tight, squeezing the breath out of me with his strong arms.
I hugged him back tight as he breathed in my scent deeply. After a while, he murmured into my neck: "Where were you? You had me worried sick!"
I felt his warm breath on my neck and I instantly melted. I combed through his unruly hair and apologized: "I'm really sorry, baby... It's just that my sister and her boyfriend broke up and I had to console her for a long, long time before she promised me not to do anything stupid... I came home as soon as I can, Har."
Harry pulled away and looked at me straight in the eyes with a longing gaze: "You could've at least texted... I got so scared and I kept imagining dangerous things happened to you like.... " he combed through his hair, deciding not to say what he wanted to say.
He continued: "And all these while, I kept thinking about how I didn't say I love you or really took the time to appreciate you before I lose you..." Harry looked at me seriously.
"Aww Hazza...." I murmured as I place my head on his chest, right above his beating heart. "Me and my sister left out phones downstairs while we went up to her room so she could cry to her heart's content. Anyways, what are you talking about, you said I love you to me this morning before you left for work, silly!" I giggled and he chuckled along with me as I could feel his chest vibrating.
He smoothen my hair and ran his fingers through it while I looked up at him adoringly, safe in his arms.
"Well, the important thing is that you're safe now and you're back in my arms. I promise I won't let anything happen to you..." He smiled down at me and I know that I can trust his words.
He continued, replying to my last sentence now. "Saying I love you a few times is not enough. From now on, I want to declare my love to you 100 times, 1000 times, till my very last breath. I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU I LOVE YOU......"
Harry launched into it straight away, causing me to burst into a fit of laughter.
I swatted his chest playfully and he nuzzled his nose on head, causing his long curls to fall over my face. Still lying on his chest, I felt his heartbeat quickened as he stopped and said it to me seriously, turning my face to look at him with his finger on my chin.
"I'm serious, baby girl. I love you to the moon and back." He gazed at me with such love in his eyes.
"I love you to the Sun and back." I replied gingerly and a huge grin formed on his face, causing his lovely dimple to show.
We both leaned forward to kiss each other, his soft and irresistible lips gentle on mine.
We went back to bed, wrapped under the sheets and each other's love.
