The Story of Us

Family

The next morning was suprisingly sunny. I missed the sun, and the heat. I missed the way my hair sticked to my face, and the way my hair curls up and gets lighter after just one swim. I missed the way the salt was rubbing off of my skin under a tanktop. And I missed the sea so much. Underwater, was the only place I felt like I belonged to back then. I used look up when I was diving, the way the sunlight burst into a million pieces underwater, was the most beautiful thing in the world. A white note cought my eye, and woke me up from daydreaming. It was standing on the coffe table under a paperweight, while the wind coming from an open window was playing with its ends. I slowly stretched my hand out to the coffe table, moved the paperweight and took the note.

You looked so cute, I didn't want to wake you up.

Gemma and Anne are coming today, so I went to 

the airport to pick them up. 

I love you :), H.

I totally forgot Anne and Gemma were coming today. Anne liked me, and I liked her, but the ''mother-in-law-daughter-in-law curse'' was present. The last, and first time I saw her, she really liked me. But now, when I'm engaged to her son, and when I broke his heart, it may be different. I went to take a shower to clear out my mind. That was the closest I could get to the sea, even though I was on an island. I just got out of the shower, when I heard my phone ringing. I thought a while weither I'd answer it or not, because I liked the ringtone, but in the end I did.

-Good morning baby.- Harry's voice made my heart beat faster again.

-Good morning H.- I replied rubbing my eye.

-I see you read the note I left you.-

-I did... When did you egzactly tell me your mother and sister are coming?-

-After the engadgement party.- Figures why I didn't remember that. That day is like a blank page for me. 

-You can't hypnotise me, tell me something, and then expect me to remember what you said afterwards.- he sighed.

-I'm sorry.-

-You better be.- I said and giggled. -So where are you now?-

-I just picked them up a few minutes ago. The traffic isn't that bad, so we should be home soon.-

-I love you.- I quietly added.

-I love you too.- he said and hung up.

I went to our bedroom wardrobe. I don't even know how did all of our clother manage to fit in there. Sure, Zayn ''stole'' some of Harry's clothes, but it wasn't close to enough. The classic girl problem was to decide what to wear. Not to me. I put on a pair of black jeans, a purple plaid shirt over a white T-shirt and black converse. I found the heart-shaped locket I threw on the street a few weeks ago, standing on the nightstand. I think Lucy found it and gave it back to me, but I don't remember much from that time except crying and screaming. It was still in a pretty good shape, so I put it on aswell. As I was  closing the clasp, I heard someone knocking on the back door. 

-Just breathe. It'll be okay.- I said to myself as I was climbing down the stairs. I pulled my face into the biggest smile I possibly could, and opened the door. I saw Harry looking at me as Anne gave me a big hug.

-Sara!- she pulled back and gently grabbed my wrists looking at me. -You look beautiful.-

-That's what I keep telling her, but she won't believe me.- Harry said and took my arm after putting Anne and Gemma's bags on the floor. 

-Thanks.- I said and looked at Anne.

-Gemma...- Harry continued. -This is Sara. My... fiancee´.-he stopped before saying fiancee´. I guess he was as thrilled as me to be saying that word outloud. -Sara, this is Gemma, my sister.- she was taller than I thought she would be. I saw so many pictures of her with Harry, but looking at them close like this, they really looked like a brother and sister. The both of them- just like Anne- had dark hair and light eyes. And all of them were beautiful. I reached my hand to Gemma, for a handshake, but she hugged me and said:
