beside you | wroetoshaw

i woke up next day, with a banging headache. i looked down and realised i had no clothes on, then everything came rushing back about how i had drank too much and how i had slept with harry.

"no no no no no noooooo" i mumbled into my pillow

i buried my head into my duvet, but then realised harry wasn't next to me and none of his clothes were on the floor, only mine.
i quickly chucked on some comfy clothes and went into the kitchen to get water and ibroprofen, kind of hoping harry would be in there waiting. but there was no sight of him.

i huffed and thought he must of just went home either last night or early this morning not wanting to have an awkward encounter when i woke up

i decided to call talia, to tell her the tales of what had happened the night before and to try get some advice on what to do

*ring, ring, ring*

"good morning em" i heard talia from the other side of the phone

"hello, how you feeling this morning" i asked

"not too bad, what about you? you were pretty fucked last night" she stated

"lucky you, well i feel like death" i admitted while rubbing my eyes

"haha where did you go last night by the way, i didn't see you after like 10 ish" she asked, i felt my stomach drop

"well that's why i'm phoning you, i might of done something bad" i mumbled

"something bad? what happened" she asked, her voice grew in concern

"well i kind of, sort of slept with harry" i stammered

"WHAT!? emilia hayden! that's great is it not? how it is bad?" she shouted from the other end of the line

"well we are friends, we are both not ready for a relationship and he left me without even saying anything, not even a text" i moaned

then i heard my phone ding, i had gotten a text

"wait this might be him" i said hopefully

harry lewis
hey em, i'm sorry for just leaving you this morning. cal and lux kept blowing up my phone wondering where i was so i had to leave x

"oh thank god" i breathed out

"what did he say?" she asked

"he said he's sorry for leaving without saying anything" i reread his message

"did he say anything else?"

"no not really, what should i say back?" i asked for advice

"ask him to meet with you later, then you can talk and see what you want to do about it. if it was a one time thing or if you two want to start seeing each other properly" she said, i hummed at her idea

"right okay, i'll go message him now and i'll tell you what he says okay?" i said

"okay em, talk to you later bye"

"byee" i said ending the call

i leaned back into my sofa, with a big grin on my face knowing harry was still talking to me.
i thought for a while about what i should say and decided text him back.

emilia hayden
oh it's okay, i was a bit confused ngl but would you want to go for coffee later to talk about stuff? x

i set my phone down and turned on my tv, almost immediately i got a text back from him.
