Everything had gone perfectly. Tonight had been our first taste of the real thing; and by the real thing I meant the actual purpose of our career as a band which was to make music and share it with our fans.
Our fans. Now they were another story; completely wonderful and I guess I could say each member of One Direction was grateful for them. The energy we received from the crowd was spectacular and we enjoyed every second of it.
To think that our life for now on consisted of doing that every single day and night was amazing. There wasn’t any space for complaints in my life right now. Everything was bliss.
After the concert, we all had to get back in the bus although we wanted to stay a little longer and take pictures with our fans. We were headed to the fifteen beacon hotel the time to rest before hitting back the road.
As soon as we got there, our rooms were already all booked on the same floor. No one wasted anytime and went straight to their room, calling it a night. I on the other hand wasn’t tired at all but I didn’t want to be all alone so an idea came to mind.
I ran to the bathroom and turned on the water, slipping my finger under it to check the temperature. Perfect. I went to the counter and bent down, opening the cabinets in hope to find a few scented candles in there. Luck was on my side that night.
I dimed the light and lit the candles, scattering them around the bathtub. I went back to the cabinets in hope for a bottle of bubble bath. It wasn’t hard to find since the whole place was packed. I grabbed a bottle and filled the tub with the entire substance. I threw it aside and walked out of my hotel, in search of the only person I wanted to be with right now.
I rounded the corner and walked further down the hall, towards her room. I knocked three times and waited patiently for her to answer. She opened the door with her arm clutching her pink rope together.
“What are you doing here, Harry?” She asked, her brows furrowing.
I smiled. “Come over to my room.”
She sighed and started shaking her head. “No, it’s late Harry. You should go get some sleep; we’re hitting the road in a few hours.”
Every word she said went in one and out the other. I wasn’t taking no for answer and she’d just have to deal with that.
“I’m not tired and by the look of things you’re not either.” I looked into her room where her laptop and a few books were scattered on her bed. She pushed me and stepped into the hall, closing her door behind her.
“What do you want, Hazza?”
I smiled, loving the sound of my nickname coming from her. “I’d like it if you’d hang out with me in my room.” I buried my hands in my pockets and rocked back and forth on my feet.
“At this hour?” She continued.
“I’m not tired.”
“What if we get caught?” She twisted her lips and looked around, nervous.
“So that’s what it’s about? Getting caught?”
“Yeah, what if Paul needs me and comes to my room only to find that I’m not there.”
I shook my head. “It won’t happen and besides, why would he need something from you at this hour?”
She thought about it for a second before sighing and nodding her head slowly. “Ok.”
“Ok? You’ll come?” I asked.
Her eyes bulged for a moment as she stared me down. I frowned and went to grab her hand. “What’s wrong?”
She allowed me grab her hand and intertwine our fingers together as I led her to my room. “Nothing. It’s nothing.”
“You sure?”
“Yeah. I’m fine.”
I opened my door and brought her inside before closing it. She walked into my room before turning around and shrugging. “So what are we doing?”
A slow smile crept across my face as I grabbed her hand yet again and brought her to my bathroom. She eyed me suspiciously and hesitantly followed me. “Why are we going there?”
“Shh! It’s a surprise.” We stood in front of the bathroom door and I turned around, my back against the door. I told her to close her eyes and she reluctantly did it. I went behind her and grabbed her waist, pushing the door open and guiding her inside.
“You can open them.” I ordered.
Her arms fell to her side and so did her mouth. She took in her surroundings before he gaze landed on me. “You did this for me?”
“For us.” I smirked.
Her surprised expression turned into an angry one. “Did you completely lose your mind? What makes you think I’m just going to jump in a tub with you?”
“No I didn’t lose my mind and why not? I’m sure you’re stressed and I’d be more than happy to take that stress away from you.”
“We can’t be doing this, Harry. Look if this is about the kiss—”
I took a few steps towards her and lifted my finger to her lips so she could shut up. That kissed we had shared earlier had been unexpected but probably the best kiss I’ve ever had. I didn’t regret a single thing and I knew she felt the same way.
“Take a bath with me.” I asked her, my voice suddenly deep.
“Turn around.” She gave me a sour look.
I did as she said and turned around. I heard the sound of water swishing around and a few seconds later, she gave me the right to turn back around. I smiled when I found her in the tub, her back against the tiled wall.
“I’m coming,” I grinned.
I undressed myself in front of her, not worried about her seeing me naked although she turned her head as soon as I lost my pants. I got in the water and stretched my legs underneath hers. The skin contact must have made her uncomfortable because she backed away a little.
“I’m happy you chose me.”
“What do you mean?” She asked.
“I’m happy you didn’t pick Zayn over me like I was afraid you would.”
“You guys were never in competition and who said I chose you?”
“Whether you chose me or not, I don’t care. I’m sharing a bath with you and not Zayn.”
She laughed and rolled her eyes playfully.
“You guys were awesome tonight. I witnessed everything and the whole place just looked like a big party.”
“We had fun.” I licked my lips and ran my hand in the water, in search of hers. When I found it, I grabbed it and pulled her towards me. I was surprised when she didn’t push me away like I thought she would. Instead, she allowed me to pull her to me and have her head against my chest.
The fact that we were both naked with our bodies clinging to each other didn’t seem to bother her. She wrapped an arm around my torso and I did the same but both arms around her waist.
“Thanks for this.”
“Anytime.” I kissed her forehead and leaned back, allowing myself to relax with the girl of my dreams in my arms.
