TASH' POV

I waved goodbye to Phoebe and Ash then quickly stepped into the hotel. It wasn't as quiet as I had expected it to be, especially at this time of the night. I stepped into the elevator and pressed for the fourth floor.

Tonight was amazing. No, not even that. Words couldn't describe how exciting the party was. Yes it was a little bit overwhelming at first but the whole night gave me an opportunity to make many more friends than the people I had met at the dinner. And best of all, I felt like me and Harry were starting to get along.

There was something about him. The way his eyes were filled with so much care and understanding as he comforted me about my homesickness. He was much more open than when I first met him. But something about him left me wanting to know more and spend more time with him. The goodbye kiss he gave me, threw me completely off guard. I knew it was a friendly kiss and he was just being a gentleman but Romeo could never know about this or he would lose it. He was super protective and didn't like anyone flirting with me let alone kissing me, even though the kiss didn't have any meaning behind it.

I checked my phone for any messages. I tapped the conversation with Romeo and it opened up. He had seen my message but couldn't even be bothered to reply. Typical.

Why did it always feel like this relationship was so one sided? I put all the effort in for both of us and he couldn't even send a simple text. I should be used to this by now though, it's been 2 years.

The elevator doors opened and I headed out to the room. Inside, my Aunt was sprawled across her bed, her mouth hanging wide open, makeup still on, phone in one hand and an order sheet in the other. I'm guessing she still hadn't tracked down her stuff.

I changed into a pair of cotton shorts and a thin sweatshirt then padded across to the bathroom to remove my makeup. I wiped my face once more with the towel then crawled into bed. The warm sheets welcomed me in and I relaxed my body before drifting to sleep.

...

"Ahhhh!" My eyes flew open and I sat upright immediately.

What had she done now?

I turned my head towards the door and saw my crazy Aunt hugging, no practically squeezing the life out of some random guy.

"Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!" She screamed, looking up at him.

The man's eyes locked onto mine and I could sense a lot of fear in him. He pulled her away from him then handed her a box.

"If you could just sign this to say you have received it?" He asked with confusion evident in his voice.

"Oh yes of course sorry I'm just so excited I have waited forever for these thank god they came today I have no idea what I would have done without them today!" She gushed as she signed a paper on top of the boxes. The man just stared at her, completely in shock with her behaviour.

She handed over the papers before pushing him out of the room, singing another thank you and shutting the door right in his face. Her attention immediately went back to the cardboard box and she ripped open the tape. Her grey eyes grew even bigger as she looked at whatever was inside.

"So beautiful" She whispered stroking the objects inside.

"What you got there Aunt Karen?" I was eager to find out what got her so excited.

"Oh nothing much...Just the best makeup brushes money can buy!"

She held up a handful of fluffy brushes, all varying in size and colour.

"I ordered these brushes for the tour a few weeks back. They were supposed to be here when we got to the hotel but I guess there was a shipment problem. Doesn't matter, my beautiful brushes are here now." She smiled at them as if they were her own children.
