"Harry?" I knocked. No answer.
I quietly opened the door to find him asleep, his phone beside him.
His eyes had dark circles under them and were puffy. Even in his sleep he looked exhausted. I felt a lump rise in my throat at the sight of the boy I loved looking broken and vulnerable.
I kneeled beside his bed, running my hand over his tired face. Slowly, his eyes fluttered open.
"Skylar?" He said in disbelief, sitting up in bed.
"Hey, babe." I said, quietly. "I kinda missed you."
A grin spread across his face and he hurriedly pulled me into his arms.
"I'm so sorry for hurting you. I promise I won't ever do it again." He said into my hair. I hugged him back, harder, accepting his apology.
He pulled me to sit beside him on the bed and held my hand, just smiling at me.
"So..what now?" I asked, afraid of his answer.
"Well..." He said, looking thoughtful. "I think this whole pretend girlfriend thing is completely overrated." He paused, sending me a cheeky grin.
I waited for him to continue. "So why not make it real?"
I smiled and he kissed me. I'd never felt happier.
