"You don't have to drive me," Karen repeats.

"You sure?" I ask for reassurance.

Karen's going to London for the weekend to see none other than Niall. Harry and I will be left alone in the apartment, that way I can ask him about it, and we can also have our privacy.

She nods and crouches down to take her leather duffle bag. "Stop asking, Vee."

"Okay, okay." I raise my hands in the air in defeat.

Then she walks towards the door and opens it. I quickly wrap my hands around her back and pull her in a hug.

"Don't be loud, okay?" I repeat her words from earlier with a smirk on my face.

"Oh fuck off." She laughs and I let go of her. Karen walks out of our apartment and goes to the elevator.

"Have fun," I say with a playful tone. She flips me off before the doors open and she gets in.

I close the front door behind me, laughing. At least I could pay her back before she left.

Harry's still sitting on the couch, reading. He has been reading for the past three hours, non-stop. He's already read like half of the book.

I walk to stand in front of him, and I lightly kick his foot to get his attention. He looks at me, startled.

"Page?" I ask nervously.

"254." He answers.

"And what do you think so far?" I ask him, feeling the butterflies rise in my stomach. We're alone now which means that no one can bother us or interrupt us.

"It's pretty interesting." He looks up at me. "The sex scenes are pretty intense, but I think it's good."

"Really?" I take a step closer. I didn't think he'd like a book like this one.

"Mhm," he hums and tries to keep reading the book, but I take it out of his hands, close it and put it on the coffee table. "What are you doing?" He chuckles. At least he's not mad that I closed the book without using a bookmark.

I don't answer though, I only smirk and straddle his hips. He grabs my hips as a reflex and looks at me like he's hesitant. My smirk widens as I take his hands and slide them to my ass. His eyes widen in surprise, and a laugh escapes my mouth. He wasn't expecting that.

I'm letting him do this because I'm the one in control of the situation. If I wasn't then we wouldn't be doing this. I could never let him do that — I could never let him take that control.

That touch from him wakes up the butterflies down there, and I press my lips against his to calm those feelings. I wrap my arms around his neck and tightly grasp the back of his long hair. As a reflex, he squeezes my ass, and we both moan into the kiss.

Harry squeezes my ass again and pulls me closer to him, so close that I feel him again, and he's fucking hard... again. My lips tug up in a low smile as he slightly pulls away to look at me. Harry smirks and presses his forehead against mine.

"That's how you make me feel," his words make my stomach flutter and I kiss him again. His lips are already parted so I slip my tongue in his mouth without a warning.

I feel him try to stand up, but I don't let him and slightly pull at his hair back, making our lips part with that smacking sound. He lets out a short laugh as I push my body against his to keep him there.

"I really like your long hair," I say, only pants coming out of my mouth. He locks eyes with me as he laughs again.

"I can see why now." We both smirk and I feel his hands slide up to the hem of my sweatshirt. His eyes are questioning me - he's asking me for permission with only his eyes.
