Later that night, we were in bed and listening to my iPod. We each had one earbud in and I was scrolling through my artists.

            Harry leaned over to see who I was putting on, but I hid it from him.

            “Hey,” he said with a smile.

            “You can’t see yet,” I replied still looking through my artists. He knew I was going to stop at a Taylor Swift song anyways.

            “Taylor Swift,” he said the second I pressed play. I pouted at him; he was right. He smiled, “Now which song…” he said listening.

            Do you remember we were sitting there by the water, you put your arm around me for the first time, you made a rebel of a careless man’s careful daughter, you are the best thing that’s ever been mine…

            He looked at me and smiled, “What’s the name?”

            “Guess,” I smiled back at him.

            “Hm…” he said shifting to sit up more in bed. He pulled me closer to him. He knew the answer.

            “You have ten seconds to answer,” I teased.

            “Ten seconds? Well then…” he kissed me and started to count down from ten.

            I smiled on his lips and he closed the tiny gap.

            “3…2…1… Mine,” he said and kissed me again, the music still playing in our ears.

            I pulled away and sat up in bed, “Yup!” I stretched out and yawned. I felt my eyelids getting heavier. Harry only smiled at me.

HARRY’S P.O.V.

            I opened up my arms and Maya laid down on my body. She had one leg on the bed and the other on top of mine. She was halfway lying on my torso. I put my arms around her and kissed the top of her head. I took her iPod and turned it off. I put it on my night table and Maya shifted. I shut off the light too and went back to the middle of the bed.

            “I love you,” I whispered stroking her hair.

            “Mmm…” she mumbled into my t-shirt.

            “Tired?” I asked smiling. She merely nodded in response and I kissed her hair again, keeping my nose on the top of her head. Maya was so beautiful I couldn’t stand it sometimes. I felt her breath down my neck, tickling my skin. I felt her foot absently rub again my ankle in her sleep. Her breathing was steady and even. I only continued to stare at her in the darkness of our room. She was perfect. I wanted to continue talking to her.

            Now was my time to tell her everything. The way I felt about her, what I want to do with her in the future; everything.

            “Maya,” I whispered, “I love you. So much. I never want to be apart from you, ever. I want to grow old with you and have little kids that we can take to soccer practice together and teach how to ride a bike. Maya, you are the single, greatest person who’s ever entered my life. I love you so much…” I kinda laughed at myself, “You probably didn’t even hear any of that.”

            She didn’t move. I waited a couple minutes until she stirred in her sleep. Her head lifted and she opened her eyes to look at me. Without saying anything, she kneeled up and out her knees on either side of my body. I only continued looking at her. She leaned in and kissed me on my nose.

            “I did…”

            I tilted my head and she kissed my cheeks, “You did what?”

            “I heard everything…”

            I opened my mouth to say something, but held myself back. She heard everything I had to say about her. Well, that wasn’t even close to everything I wanted to say. There was too much. I could barely describe my feelings for her and how much I was in love with her.

            “Oh,” I choked out. Nice Harry… that’s all you could come up with? It was too late to flirt…

            I yawned to my side and Maya smiled at me. She ran her hand through my hair before she laid back down on my chest. We fell asleep together.

TWO WEEKS LATER

            Today was the last day of our honeymoon. Maya and my honeymoon. The only one we would ever have. Well, I could take her on other trips, but this was the one that normally counted the most. I stood in the kitchen, waiting for Maya to finish getting ready. She came downstairs looking upset.

            “Baby, what’s wrong?” I asked.

            “I don’t wanna leave… but I wanna see everyone else too…”

            I weakly smiled at her and gave her a hug, “I don’t want to leave either, but good things always have to come to an end, right?”

            She shrugged, “Guess so…”

            “Mmm…” I hummed. She looked up at me.

            “Sing me a song before we leave,” she said with a smile.

            “Which song?”

            “Um… Moments. I love that song.”

            “Okay,” I smiled at her and she leaned against the counter. “Shut the door, turn the light off, I wanna be with you, I wanna feel your love, I wanna lay beside you, I cannot hide this, even though I try… heart beats harder, time escapes me, trembling hands touch skin, it makes this harder, and the tears stream down my face…”

            She smiled and sang the chorus with me, “If we could only have this life, for one more day, if we could only turn back time… You know I’ll be, your life, your voice, your reason to be, my love, my heart, is breathing for this, moment in time, I’ll find the words to say… before you leave me today.”

            I smiled at her and we stopped singing. We stared at each other, not really saying anything.

            “We should get going…” she said looking at the floor. I stepped up to her and used my index finger to tilt her head up towards mine, “I love you,” I whispered and I placed my lips on top of hers.
