Under The Mistletoe | HS [Completed]

CHAPTER 6

Ray POV

As Harry directed the way to me, I drove down the moors as I took in the sites of my new town. I cannot explain how much I love it here. Especially with the coconut trees it gave a perfect vibe of the coastal regions as well as the wilderness.

"Alright, slow down and take a left," Harry instructs. And I look infront of me to see that we are getting pulled into a long driveway. This place was more like a countryside with no houses around.

I look infront of me to see that the house looks extremely perfect for me. It had a huge driveway, along with a front yard and a small porch.

As we pulled up more further into the driveway, I could see the house, beautifully lit by sunlight with a pattern of the shadows of the trees. So far, I loved it.

I jam the brakes as we reach the entrance of the house. Harry gets down and I kick the stand, killing the engine.

"This is really beautiful," I say.

"You like it?" He asks.

"Well, exterior yes." I nod.

"Oh, you'll be impressed with the interiors," he shows off his dimples.

"Come on, let's go in," he says as he takes out the keys from his pocket and walk up the stairs.

I follow him close by and step into the beautiful porch. I can't help but wonder if I'd be allowed to decorate this place on my own.

"Will I be allowed to decorate this place?" I ask.

"Ofcourse," Harry says as if he is stating the obvious. "I mean it will be your home."

He opens the door and allows me to step inside first.

Such a gentleman!

I look around me, unable to believe if the place I'm standing is actually true. As we've all heard, never judge a book by it's cover. The exterior was nothing compared to the beautiful interiors. Sunlight penetrating through the huge sliding glass doors added to the decor. The floor is made of hard wood and the aesthetic effect given to ceiling looked really perfect.

I'm in awe with this place!

"May I?" I ask, before I lung forward to explore the beauty.

"Ofcourse," he says. "All yours." He answers and walks outside.

I'm pleasantly surprised to see that Jen was renting out this place. I mean it was really so beautiful. Now that Harry had fully furnished the place, I couldn't think of any other place perfect for me than this.

The kitchen was airy and full of light, due to the sunlight from the huge sliding doors and also the white furniture in kitchen added to the space.

I look out from the sliding doors to see the blue of the river clearly standing out with the greens of the land

I look through the window of the livingroom to see Harry standing out on the porch while he gazed into the infinity. I couldn't help but notice how beautiful he was, with his sharp features and intimidating eyes.

There is no flaws on him. Even the tattoos look like they are a part of him. Tall and lean, with broad shoulders; he was attractive enough to make a girl stop dead in her tracks.

I couldn't help but think back about what Anne had told me earlier today. No one must go through what Harry has! It must've been so hard for for him.

I guessed if that is what he must be thinking about. Harry is like the guy who is calm on the outside but with storm in his eyes, he is going through the turmoil all alone.

I've seen how Harry cares, for his mother and Jen. Jen and Harry don't even get along most of the time, it's like a brother sister relationship, yet he cares alot for her.

Harry turns around and joins me inside the house. "How is it?" He asks.

"You are an amazing designer, Harry!" I exclaim. "Are you sure you've designed this all by yourself?" I tease.

"No, the ducks and swans from the river helped me." He says sarcastically and I laugh.

"Speaking of which, would you mind if I walk to the water's edge?"

"Sure, but be careful, I haven't done with the pathway yet, so make sure you be careful on the wood." He warns.

"Yes, I will."

He nods and leads me towards the huge sliding doors and opens them enough for me to walk through.

"My mother likes to refer this as a river, but its actually a small stream, a part of a river."

"Oh, it's really beautiful though." I say.

"It is, yeah."

"No, I meant whatever you've done with the home." He turns to me and locks eyes with me.

His eyes are so similar to the shade of the river and the trees. I've always admired people with those eyes.

I walk towards the path being careful not to fall down. Harry guides me telling me which wood is better to step on.

I smile as I reach the end of it and take a seat at the edge of the pathway. I loved water ever since I was a kid.

I am an Oceanholic!
Staring at the shades of blue,
Complimenting the beautiful view,
Between the shoreline and the horizon,
Lies the mind of a peaceful person.
The sound of the seagulls squealing,
And the tides hitting the shore seems appealing,
The view of white foam above the sand,
stirs the heart giving a hand,
In inspiring imagination,
bringing eternal joy to the soul with an affection.

But now, I guess the river would do it.

"So, how did you like it?" Harry asks.

"I love this place. I think it is perfect for me," I smile. "And besides, I have a home with a perfect designer."

"Oh come on, it's not a big deal." Harry waves it off.

"Yes you are." I say.

""Hey, you are a designer too, aren't you?" He asks.

"Yup, fashion designer." I smile. "How do you know?"

"I was at the guest house while you were telling my mother about it," he says.

"Oh, isn't it a bad habit to eavesdrop Mr Styles?" I ask.

"It is! But couldn't help myself when I heard the word designer. I walked in exactly when you used that word." He says.

I thankfully sigh knowing that he didn't listen to his mother speak about him and his ex fiancee.
