i got to my nans house. i had past the fair grounds driving in. it looked amazing! i hadnt been to a carnival since i was a little girl and before my mom met her husband.
"hello love!" my nan said embracing me into a hug.
"hi nan! wow!! this place looks amazing!" i said pointing to the house.
we walked into the parlor, it was full of places to sit, but none that looked comfortable.
She gestured me into my bedroom. my mum and I stayed here when my dad ran off. it ws still the same as i had left it before. A simple pink room. It seemed like years since then, my little bed, and then my moms. they had stayed theyre this whole time and not changed one bit.
"nan, have you had anybody stay in here since we left last time?" i said admiring my old plush bunny.
it was still soft. almost like it was brand new. it had my mothers scent. i set it down on the bed and unpacked. i was staying here for two weeks and i didnt want my clothes to wrinkle.

"momma! momma! i cant wait for the fair can you?"
"yeah sis! are you going to ride the ferris wheel this year?"
"yes! its going to be fun! can it bring naw-me?"
"no, you dont want to get her dirty. your bunny will get dirt on itself"
"but momma!"
"no butts! i love you sis now go lay down. while me and nan are going to make supper"
end of flashback.
as i remembered it. i was mad at my mom for not letting me bring my bunny to the carnival. but i was thankful, because when I got there. i slipped and fell in mud. covered. so i didnt get t go to the carnival that year. i twisted my ankle that year. and we were able to go that day.
i walked into the dining room and through the kitchen. then out the back door, into the garden only to find my nan. she was on the phone. from what i could here, she was in trouble.
"no! not today, my grandaughter is in town. and i rarely get to see her. please not until two weeks from now!? okay?"
she had worry in her voice..
was she in trouble?
what if she was in debt?
what if she made a promise she couldnt keep?
what if she gambled with a loan shark?
as i thought about all these things i worried.
darn. she saw me.
"um hey nan?:im going to meet harry a few towns over. hes comming over tonight?. Is that alright?"
" Yes dear. How about he comes over for dinner tonight?" she asked as she smiled at me.
" alright. Ill be back in a few hours!" i was happy. i know i only left him a few hours ago but its not the same being away fom him
i got to where i was meeting him. mc donalds. i ordered a caramel mocha because there wasnt a starbucks near. he pulled up and i ran outside. i hugged him tightly. i never wanted to let go. He was wearing my favourite cologne of his. It smelt like something tangy. Almost like a lemon scent. i loved that smell. It fit him. His personality.
We walked to his car and drove off. we were driving through small little towns. it was amusing to look at his face. He looked confused and amazed at how small the towns were. He was born in he UK but his family moved to the united states when he was just three years old. He was used to the cities but i wasnt. I grew up in a small town where everybody knew everybody. It was amazing to think how perfect we are together when we both grew up so differently. we started heading toward my nans house. he finally managed to figure out how to get there.
"hey love? is this it? right here?" as he point to a big white farm house. it was practically a mansion. we a had a few akers, a huge garden, a gazebo out front, a four car garrage, and a huge white barn out back. " yes, thats it. Just go ahead and pull around back."
my nan was out back. Harry got out of the car then came aroung to my door and let me out. "thanks love!''
my grandma pulled me over to talk to me while harry took his stuff to my old room. Earlier today she had offered to let him stay here for the rest of the trip, but my room is really small so my nan gave us money to get a hotel room. harry came back and met my nan.
'He is a sweet heart julia. i think he just might be a keeper." Nan said as she winked at me.
"Thanks nan! I hope he plans on sticking around for a while." i said as i looked over at harry.
"oh, Trust me i will stick around as long as you want me to love!!!"
(Later that night after dinner)
Harry helped my nan put the dishes away as i got my jammies on. When they were done, He walked to our room and got his jammas on. my nan came in to tell us she was going to bed early beacause she had a long day tomorrow. Me and harry turned off all the lights and turned music on softly. he climbed into bed with me and pulled the covers over both of us. he lay on top of me and kissed my neck till he got to my lips. he was being so gentle. I was tired so we went to bed since we had a log day ahead of us.
(the next morning)
When i woke up the next day, harry was in the kitchen cooking and my nan had been gone but harry didnt know why.
i walked into the kitchen. the smell of flour filled he air. you could hear the sizzle from our room. i walked in. went to the sink. and filled a cup of water. as if i saw it coming. harry came up behind me and hugged my waist. wrapping his finger in my brown curls. and kissing my cheek.
he was so sweet. my grandma was right. he is a keeper.
"what are you making?" i said stealing some bacon. chewing on it only to hear this-
"breakfast mash-up. " he said opening up the skillet lid, to see something that looked, different. it had eggs, sausage, and hashbrowns in it. and the color of it all was turning brown.
"uhm harry, How about we just go out to eat breackfast at the local caffe?"
"no love. Just please try it for me." he insited
i couldnt say no that face. he was to adorable when he gave me that look. It was irristable whern he gave his puppy eyes. Liam tought him well.
"alright" i said winking at him then kissing him playfully as i walked to sit at the kitchen table.
He brought two plates of food to the table then sat down across from me. I took a bite. i had to admitt it was really good!!!
" this is amazing harry!" i said to him as he waited for a responce after i had taken my first mouth full.
"thanks love. Only the best for you." he said smiling
After we ate we got dressed and then we left so i copuld show him around my home town. We walked out the door and he pulled me close to him and hugged me tightly. He toldme he never wanted to lose me and how he loved me. he kissed me on my forehead and walked me to the car and we drove off.
