Y/f/n: You definitely haven't seen xyz movie yet right? I knew you've always been scared of it. Grow up Mariam!
I read the text my friend sent me last night. I could literally hear her laugh at how stupid I was. All my friends knew I've always hated scary movies and they seem to enjoy making fun of me over it.
I wanted to try my best to overcome this fear but then god sent an older, lovely protective boyfriend my way in the shape of Harry.
Harry always treats me like a child. Its really cute sometimes and I absolutely love him but at the same time I believe he should let me take my decisions. I'm old enough to take care of myself. If I told him my friends were making fun of me for not watching this new horror movie that's apparently the talk of the town, I'm sure he'll suggest me to leave such friends who can't be trusted. But ignoring, and running away from situations is not the best option.
My mind was currently wrapped around this new horror movie everyone wanted to talk about. I didn't want to embarrass myself in front of my friends and the fact that my group of friends had decided a get together in two days made my nerves go wild.
Obviously they would talk about the movie and would find it funny that I couldn't watch it. I had to do something very very soon. Maybe I could bribe harry into watching this movie with me. Its probably the worst idea because harry would never allow me to watch a horror film but I had to try something before it gets too late.
My eyes land on my boyfriend who was peacefully laying besides me. His eyes shut close, his lips slightly parted as soft snores left his mouth. I couldn't help but giggle at the cute sight of a sleeping harry in front of me.
Wait!!!
I have an idea. I got myself off of the bed, careful to not wake up the handsome Prince sleeping. I tiptoed my way down the hall into the living room where my eyes landed on Harry's laptop that was carefully placed on the coffee table.
This was the best idea and the timings seemed perfect too. All I had to do now was log in, watch the movie and let my friends know that I'm not as much of a coward as the portrayed me out to be.
Once the movie was set, I made myself comfortable on the couch. At first I thought of making some popcorns or something for myself but I guess time was something important to me right now.
The movie hadn't even started yet but I felt my fingers start to tremble in fear. Come on Mariam you can do this! My inner voice encouraged me.
With my shaking hands I pressed the play button. Getting used to with my environment at the same time. The first five minutes to the movie were OK, but later when it was a midnight scene in the movie, my body tensed again.
It felt like I saw a shadow move across the dim kitchen light, which was followed by some muffling sound I couldn't comprehend. I brought my hand close to mouth to prevent a squeal that could even wake up the neighbours. I immediately pressed the pause button pushing the laptop aside.
I brought my knees closer to my body curling myself on the uncomfortable living room couch. I had to run to my bedroom as soon as possible.
My plans of sprinting to mine and Harry's shared bedroom were interrupted by our neighbours dog barking. By this time I had literally balled my hand into a fist that was stuffed in my mouth. My friends were right, I am a baby. I didn't even realise that hot tears were running down my cheeks by this time.
Without wasting further time in any sort of stupid thought I pushed myself off the couch running as fast as possible to my bedroom, closing the door with a loud THUD and jumping on the bed.
I was so scared I didn't even realise that my actions had disturbed my boyfriend's peaceful slumber. His eyes shot wide open as he saw me bringing the covers close to my body.
"Hey babe what's wrong?" His concerned eyes met mine. I did not had the strength to utter even a single word. All I did was silently sob until Harry's large hands gripped mine, engulfing me in the warmth of his body.
A soon as my head hit his rock hard yet safe chest, my anxiety level started going low as I started to relax.
"Shh its OK! Every thing will be fine." His words soothed me.
After rocking me for about half an hour he brought my face closer to his.
"Mariam I really need to know what happened. Plz tell me." He begged. His soft voice calmed me.
"I..I..." I stuttered not able to continue.
"You what babe?" Harry sweetly insisted lifting my chin with his index finger so that I would look into his eyes.
"You'll be angry at me!" I relied defeated.
"I promise I won't be angry at you, I really need to know what's bothering you. You look like you've seen a ghost."
"Harry I... I was watching a horror movie on your laptop. I got scared." I meekly told the truth.
"Why were you watching a horror film so late?" He simply asked.
"Because everyone was talking about it. My friends were calling me a baby for not being able to watch the film. You have to understand harry." I let out a sigh.
"You could've asked me to accompany you!" His voice growing slightly irritated.
"You would've never agreed Harry. Remember how you took the laptop away last time i wanted to see a film!" I felt Tears threatening to build up at the corner of my eyes. Harry brought me closer to his chest again.
"I'm sorry! Its alright! Its OK! It was just a movie. Reality is far different from it. You should just sleep. Don't worry about your hideous friends. Its normal to be scared perhaps I'm always going to be there by your side, you don't have to worry about anything." Harry promised.
After a few minutes I got off of his lap so that we could go back to sleep.
"Uhmm harry?" I turned around. Heat rising up on my neck, crawling up to my cheeks
"Yes honey?"
"Will you. Will you come with me to the bathroom. I really need to pee?" I shyly asked. He let out a chuckle at my innocence, before agreeing to accompany me.
He stood out, waiting for me until I was done with my business and later on he held me tighter than usual making me feel safe and comfortable.
"Are you still scared?" He whispered, running his hands through my hair.
"A little bit."
"Do you want to watch something else, you know, to clear your mind?" He asked. I wanted to say no because it was already too late but I had to clear my mind off the scary scenarios going around.
"Can we watch a cartoon?" I asked only to earn Harry's giggle
"You're too cute." He slightly pinched my cheeks. "I'll grab the laptop." He stood up but I tug onto his sleeve. I did not want him to go away
"I'll be back soon I promise." He kissed my forehead before leaving to grab the gadget. I did not had to worry about any scary movie now that I knew harry was there by my side.
