Summer to Remember

Chapter Thirty Seven

*Ding dong!* I heard the doorbell ring and quickly got off Harry's lap and ran to the front door, I guess my happy greeting surprised the guy delivering it, he looked kind of creeped out to be exact. 

"Thanks mate" Harry said as he grabbed the huge bag and handed him some cash, "Keep the rest, have a good night!" he said before closing the front door. 

"Smells delish!" I said flashing him a wide smile as I followed him into the living room, wait, why wasn't he going to the kitchen?

"Are we eating in the living-room?" I asked curiously as I continued to follow in his steps.

"Yup, bought some for everyone 'cause you know Niall..." he explained and I couldn't help but chuckle. 

I helped him take out all the food and we were scattered all around the room, some of us eating on the floor in front of the coffee table while some of us planted ourselves onto the couch devouring every piece of this delicious Chinese take out. If you're wondering about Niall's reaction, well let's just say he was ecstatic that Harry ordered food for all. I guess I was busy focusing on finishing everything on my plate because I didn't notice the laughing in the corner of the room, Delilah was chuckling to something Zayn said. Since when was Zayn a comedian? 

"Care to explain the joke" I said barging into their never-ending conversation, this was the first time their eyes were off each other's as they looked up at me. 

"Just telling Delilah a story" Zayn explained smiling and I smiled in their direction before drawing a heart out in the air.

You may think I was acting nosy but honestly Delilah was like my sister so it didn't matter, as I drew out a heart in the air Delilah glared at me and mouthed "Shut up". I decided not to take it too far after seeing the reaction on her face, what surprised me the most was the fact that Zayn didn't mind at all. He didn't blush or anything, just continued to tell his story or whatever the hell they were talking about. 

I insisted I clean up after the take-out meal but Rebecca rushed to my side, helping me as always. "Zayn and Delilah are flirting on the first day" she smirked as we walked to the kitchen.

"I know, how adorable!" I said trying not to squeal like an idiot. We both giggled as we threw out the remains of the food, well there wasn't really food remaining, we just threw out the paper plates and stuff. 

We were washing the dishes when I noticed Harry walk by the kitchen door and point up the stairs before winking. I'm guessing he was calling me upstairs because he quickly ran up the stairs afterwards. "I think I'll go upstairs for a bit" I said trying to sound casual as I dried my hands with paper towel.

"Okey dokey!" she said as she walked off into the living room. Quickly rushing up the stairs, I turned the handle on Harry's door and peeked in. He was leaning on his headboard with the cheekiest smile on his face, his dimples were perfection. I entered and closed the door behind me, I walked over to him and plopped myself right next to him as I put my arms around his torso. 

"I missed you" he said leaning in and resting his head on mine. 

"I missed you too" I said smiling through the four words that came out of my mouth. It may seem weird that we miss each other because we spent the whole day together but we didn't mean it that way. We missed spending one on one time with each other, this day had been quite a busy one. I sat myself up and crossed my legs as I looked into his emerald green eyes. I couldn't help but smile as he placed a strand of my hair behind my ear. All of a sudden, I had this indescribable urge to kiss him so I went ahead and leaned in closer placing my lips against his. Our lips moved together and I kissed him until I had to pull away to take a breath. I guess he didn't need to take a breath because he crashed his lips with mine and slowly started moving from his current position. He got off the bed and took my hand in his as he helped me up. Putting his arms around my waist, he started kissing me passionately. Before I knew it, I was leaning back against his bedroom wall and his hand was around my waist as the other was behind my head. His hands started to move down and I didn't know what the hell he was doing until he started to unbutton my shirt. Harry somehow managed to unbutton the first couple of buttons while his lips were still placed on mine, I felt as if I wasn't ready for this and pulled away.

As he gasped for air, his forehead crinkled in confusion. "Something wrong love?" he asked with a puzzled look on his face.

I had absolutely no idea what to say as I stood there looking into his green eyes. "Ummm, now is not the time hun" I explained as I looked straight into his eyes. At first his eyebrows were knitted close together in thought but they loosened up as he understood what I actually meant. "Oh god, I can't even describe how much I love you" I said grinning at him.

"Words can't describe my love for you Ella" he said gazing into my eyes as his lips curved into a breath-taking smile. Just when I thought I was living in a dream, someone knocked on the door. We quickly pulled apart and I casually sat on the corner of his bed as he went to open the door. 

"Where have you been?" Louis asked Harry curiously before walking in and noticing me sitting on the bed smiling in his direction, his eyes widened as he saw me. 

He turned around to look back at Harry and asked "Did I come in at a wrong time?" trying to hide his smirk. 

"Nope, just the perfect timing" Harry replied sarcastically before walking over and sitting beside me on his bed.

"Bored Lou?" I questioned Louis.

"Yeah, Liam's texting Danielle every second. Niall and Rebecca are too busy cuddling and Delilah and Zayn are flirting nonstop" he explained.

"Awww, I think you need a girlfriend" I joked.

"He's already got one" Harry said.

"Oh, oops! Why didn't you ever tell me?" I questioned Louis realizing that I probably sounded like an idiot a couple seconds ago.

"Never found the chance" he grinned before taking a seat on the leather loveseat across from the bed. 

"How about we take a midnight stroll tonight?" I asked excitedly.

"Sounds good, but to where?" Louis said curiously.

"We could walk to the cafe beside the harbor" Harry suggested and we quickly agreed.

"Sounds like a plan!" I said excitedly. 

I don't think I've ever mentioned this before but I love going on midnight strolls, especially at the beach.
