"Baby." Harry hummed in my ear, I woke up to see him sitting next to me, obviously he had been up for hours and went home for clothes. He chuckled softly as I buried my head in the pillow. 

"Did you go home?" I asked the obvious question. 

"Yeah, went to get a change of clothes. We're going to be late for our appointment doll, why don't you go jump in the shower while I get changed." He yawned and I just turned over on my back to look at him. I remembered the events of last night that made me float further into the clouds as I grinned at him. 

"Something on your mind?" He raised an eyebrow at me, his body lowered when I motioned for a hug. "Thank you for everything last night. Made me happy." "The sex or the food?" "Everything. Mostly the sex. Or lack thereof." 

"Baby, we will have sex soon. Just not now, I want to make sure you're ready. Just give it some time." He kissed my lips softly, tapping my side as he nestled his head into my chest. I was in a tank top and underwear but that's it but was being soaked by his wet hair.

"I don't want to go today." I hummed, wrapping my arms around his head as he laid on me. He had his eyes closed since we only had an astounding 4 hours of sleep, yes, it's 9. I don't know if Harry got any sleep come to think of it. 

"Too bad, we're committed. Think of it as marriage counseling except we're not married." Yet. I don't think he remembered his proposal yesterday and if he did he obviously didn't mean it. 

"Go shower." He yawned and I groaned, standing up but obeyed. I brushed my teeth while the water heated up I jumped into the shower. 

I got out to see Harry on the edge of my bed on his phone, one shoe on, scrolling through his phone. He looked up to see me, smiling softly as I put on my undergarments, not caring if he saw me or not since he had already seen me naked. 

"What are you going to wear?" He yawned, putting on his other shoe after tapping some more on his phone. 

"Nothing." 

"Oooh. Tempting." He laughed as I slid on a black playsuit with a pair of jean shorts and white converse. 

"Cute." He hummed, kissing my neck as I blowdrying it. 

"Cute hickeys." He laughed, poking my bruises brought on by his own lips. He laughed even harder when I winced. "Stop. Not funny." I whined out as we walked downstairs. 

"Mom's at work." Josh said from the couch where he and Marissa laid.

"I'm making breakfast." I hummed, going into the kitchen to make the basics of pancakes, eggs and bacon. I looked at my phone to see my dad had texted me saying Derek invited him to the wedding. 

"Did you hear the news?" Josh asked, jumping on the counter across from Harry. 

"What?" 

"Mom's got a boo thang." He wiggled his eyebrows and I laughed, turning the pancakes over. 

"How do you know?" Harry asked as Marissa sat beside Josh on the counter. 

"Last night he came by the house because she didn't reply to his calls and wanted to make sure she's alright." 

"I think that's sweet." I pointed the spatula at him and he smirked. 

"Wanna know the kicker?" 

"Hmm?" 

"She's dating the surgeon." My eyes widened as I turned off the stove. 

"The one who's been in love with her since med school?" 

"Yup, that very one. Derek thought it would be funny to invite dad to the wedding BECAUSE!" Josh did a dramatic pause and looked at everyone with a wide grin on his face. 

"He's her date. Imagine, the dude dad thought mom had a crush on all these years, ends up going to the wedding while dad thinks moms happily single." I laughed at his stupid behavior, understanding now why Derek invited him.

"Mom's going to flip. Babe, you'll be my date right?" I asked Harry who smirked. "I don't have much say in the matter, now do I, darling? I would not let you near your father by yourself." I smiled at him, serving everybody and we all ate our food. 

"Plans for today?" Marissa asked as she observed us eating fast.

 "I gotta go to therapy with her, therapist's orders." Harry was still working on his food when I finished so I washed the dishes quickly. 

"Nice bruises." Josh poked my neck making me groan. "Thanks, he put them there." I pointed to Harry who laughed at me, throwing away his disposable plate. 

"You left your own on me, consider it even." He moved his shirt down to reveal the several I sculpted into his skin. 

"I don't even want to know what you guys did." Josh shivered in disgust and Harry laughed. 

"Alright babe, we gotta get going. Like 20 minutes ago." Harry rushed me and I squealed, hugging Josh and Marissa before rushing to the car. 

"Ready?" He drove to the location I told him, parking in the parking lot. 

"Yes." I sighed heavily, intertwining my hand in his as we walked in the building. I smiled at the receptionist who nodded at me, telling me she was ready. 

"Sorry I'm late." I bit my lip as my hand dropped Harry. I hugged mindy who looked surprised when she saw Harry. 

"Holy shit, what are the odds. Mr. Styles." Mindy spoke with a bitter laugh.

"You can tell her." Harry said to Mindy, closing the door behind him. I was so confused as she nodded when he did. 

"Tell me what?" I asked, sitting on the couch. Harry sighed as he sat next to me, his hand resting on my thigh as he let a sigh out. 

"No, tell me." I moved his hand but it found its way back to me which was pissing me off. What the fuck is going on here?

 "Baby just fucking listen to me, please." He snapped and I rolled my eyes and turned to look at him. 

"I'm listening." 

"Mindy's my therapist, too. She has another office by where I live. She's back and forward between this office and the other. We're going on three years now. I've been seeing her because of my dad." He said, trying to reach for me, which I allowed but was confused. 

"Okay, so why did you say what you said when we walked in?" I asked Mindy who looked to be in shock and she looked at Harry who nodded. 

"Remember I told you, I've only met two people in my entire lifetime who are apart of the 1 percent." She took her glasses off and pinched the bridge of it. 

"Yeah?" 

"We talked about you earlier this week. I wanted him to bring the girl he talked about. You're that girl, I'm assuming." 

"She is." 

"What the hell is going on? I'm confused?" I looked at Harry who chuckled softly as he tilted his head when he looked at me. 

"Baby, I'm that other person. We're both the 1%."
