Lizzie’s P.O.V:  

He was just staring at me, looking astonished. I couldn’t help but stare back; it’s like our move or something. I don’t know what this feeling is called but it just feels beyond good. Those mysterious stares, it was like we could read each other’s thoughts through our eyes. It didn’t seem like he was going to say anything, he just stood there looking at me as if he were mesmerized. “Hi.” I said breaking the silence. “Hi, Lizzie.” He said back, blinking a lot. “Why are you staring at me like that?” I asked, in a shy tone, I thinking I started to blush. “You look, really….beautiful.” Oh, damn it, I suck at compliments. “I showered!” I replied my voice getting high and excited. He chuckled at that, looking down a bit then looking back up. I realized that when he laughed, he’d close his eyes and shake his head to the other side, then look back. He closed the door behind him gently, trying not to make a sound, not letting go of his gaze. He began to walk up to me, slowly. I closed my eyes and opened them again; just to be sure that Harry was in this room. He got closer to me. Even closer. “You look better than you did before.” He said, his tone getting sexier, I almost couldn’t keep up; I was so overwhelmed with his beauty. “The scars are more exposed now.” That was true, when Ayla helped me clean up, I washed my face with my cleansing face wash. The scars were more prominent. He took a place on the side of my bed and sat facing me. He brushed his hand over the scar next to me eye and kissed it softly, gently. It didn’t even feel real. He didn’t back away yet, and I just looked into his greenish grayish orbs, I caught my breath. Our eyes were locked together. We were both so still.

Before I knew it our lips crashed, like waves colliding with the rocks at the shore.

His lips were the perfect moisture, they were full and luscious. My eyes were closed the whole time as if this were a dream. He cupped my face in his big hands and I kept brushing my fingers through his unbelievably soft, waterfalls of shiny brown hair. My other hand was tracing his jaw line, it was just so perfect. Our tongues slowly went into one another’s mouth. I traced his faultless teeth, they were so smooth. I could feel him shifting his position; I opened my eyes slightly just to see exactly what he was doing. He was above me, but our bodies weren’t touching, his legs were swung over me, he was now grabbing my waist. I was running out of breath, but this was just too good to end. My hands went down his neck, and my, what a broad, long neck he had. He backed his lips away slightly, and only his lips. Our noses were still touching from how close we were. “You’re a really good kisser.” He said, slightly out of breath. “You’re not so bad yourself,” I said, looking like I was so cool, “you know the blinds are still open.” “Oh, shit!” he blurted getting off the bed to close the blinds. After he was done, he walked over to the other side of the bed, which was the left side. I was a righter for no apparent reason, I just couldn’t help it. He lay on that side of the bed, leaning on his elbow and shifting his position to face me. I was sitting straight, my back to the head board which had all those cool buttons on it, hey that was an idea. “So Lizzie love, how are you feeling?” he smiled, that signature smile he had, his voice was happy though, like he was the one who just survived a mild heart attack. “I’m better now that you’re here,” “Are you flirting with me?” he said dramatically, like it wasn’t obvious to him, “maybe I am, maybe I’m not.” I answered back raising my eyebrow in a seductive manner. He giggled and moved closer stroking a strand of hair out of my face. I mean my hair was tied up, a strand must have fell from all that, should I say, intense making out? I have to admit, that was quite pleasurable. “I saw your tweet,” he said his voice sounding nice and husky, that was his normal low type of voice. “You did?” “Yea and I just have to ask, Lizzie underscore reveler, quite catchy, eh?” “Haha, you caught me, back in New York, I was quite the party animal, in senior year I was declared number one reveler, everyone looked up to me!” I bragged, sounding like a total show off. “Wow, I’m very impressed.” He said, well, looking impressed. “You know, I find you rather mysterious,” Harry said, looking curious, “You do?” “I mean yea, I feel like there’s so much more to you than just this!” “That’s very logical to say knowing that we’ve only met yesterday!” I said mockingly. “Haha, no I didn’t mean it that way, what I’m saying is, you’re already so amazing, and there’s yet much more astounding things about you.” I couldn’t help but feel timid again; this guy thinks I’m amazing. Honestly, I couldn’t live with that. I barely know him, and he’s complimenting me lavishly. “You can’t say that about me Harry,” “And why is that?” “It’s ‘cause you still don’t know what my flaws are, and trust me when I tell you, I’m not as good as you think-” “Shhhh, don’t say that.” He placed his fore finger on my mouth, shutting me up basically. “You’re too modest.” “No I’m not Harry, I’m so arrogant you have no idea-” “You? Arrogant? I don’t think so!” “But it’s true!” “I think you’re stunning!” “And what makes you so sure of that?” I asked, overwhelmed with his many gratifying compliments. “Let’s just say that, you’re probably the bravest girl I’ve ever met.” This boy was way too much, first saying that I’m amazing, then telling me that! Just as I was about to contradict what he said, he beat me to it by pecking my lips. He can’t do that! I backed away, although his lips fit mine like a combination password to a safe that contained a billion dollars. It was that good. I was distracted by his beauty, again. It just took all that stubbornness away and kind of relaxed my mind. This is not the best way to describe his face, but it sort of felt therapeutic. As if someone would heal if they set eyes on it. It was just so beautiful and out of this world that your mind would go to peace if it gazed upon it. I know I can be way too descriptive in a very bizarre, but good at the end way. “You know I suck at compliments,” he smiled that breathtaking smile, “but thanks.” “Don’t mention it…beautiful.” Okay he can’t keep doing this to me. He couldn’t just call me beautiful like that, because I gainsay. “I’m sorry, but I’m going to have to disagree with that, you see, you can’t just call me beautiful like that, it’s ‘cause-” and he shut me up by kissing my lips yet again. He can’t be doing that to me either, but I do think it’s time I shut up. That kiss was strong, he smashed his lips into mine swiftly, it didn’t hurt, but it was familiar. I backed away slightly staring at his eyes that I cannot describe anymore because there is no good enough word to do so. I remembered that kiss. “Harry, can you remind about what happened yesterday?” “Are you saying that, you um, don’t remember?” he said looking like he took that question aback. “No, I do, a little bit, I mean I know that you were there, but just I want to know exactly what happened, I never got to ask Ayla, so can you tell me?” I asked again. It’s true, I didn’t remember exactly everything. “Um well, you see Ayla was tickling you, then all of a sudden, you screamed at there was blood oozing from your um, cut, and you stopped breathing, and I was just-” he paused after saying everything too quickly. He looked away, like he was disturbed or something. I held onto his chin, trying to make him look at me, he did turn around, but this time, his pupils got smaller, and his eyes weren’t as wide as they’d been. His smile began to fade away as well. “Harry, what is it?” I asked concern filling my face. “It’s just that-” he stopped and turned away again, tearing our gaze. I held on to his cheek that was farther away from me and tilted his head so that he could face me again. I pecked his cheek softly, “Harry, just tell me.” I could see worry heavy in his eyes. “Lizzie, you gave me a heart attack! The way you screamed, when I saw all that blood, when you almost stopped breathing! You gave me a foreboding!” he answered back his voice getting slightly shaky. “I’m so sorry-” “No, don’t apologize Lizzie, I was just worried sick!” “I know, and I’m sorry I frightened you like that-” “It wasn’t something you planned on doing so don’t say sorry, it’s just that, I was so vexed and I almost thought that you were going to, to, um…die!” he paused for a moment, and I didn’t interrupt, he just continued, “For some reason, I was just so engrossed by you, and I don’t know why, but there’s something about you that I’m just so gripped to. The fact that I saw you yesterday almost pass away, it made me think of you even more, and it would be such a loss for an incredible person like you to be gone.” He stopped and just stared at me. His eyes were literally puppy dog eyes, like he was about to burst into tears, but in reality wasn’t.  I leaned in closer to him, smelling his colon, and man was it good (this is soo Lacoste) “Oh, Harry, i-I’m speechless, I just don’t know what to say-” “Just kiss me?” I smiled, and gave him the best kiss I could give him at the moment. I smashed my lips into his and held onto his neck, while he traced my jaw line with his thumb. His hands travelled down my neck as mine travelled down his as well. I took off the leather jacket he was wearing, just so he could get more comfortable (and so I could feel his heartbeat). Our lips were still locked together, our tongues tracing each other’s perfect line of straight teeth, licking the side of our lips. Our lips were meant for each other. He grabbed hold of my hair and untied the ponytail that I had on. He threw the hair band aside and just brushed his hands through my (now soft and brushed) hair. Thank god I cleaned it, and god bless Ayla for helping me and getting my strawberry scented shampoo! My fingers were sliding down, to his shoulders, to his chest where I could feel his heart beating fast. Which got me thinking about mine; I had no idea the monitor next to me was racing! The sound kept beeping! I have got to get a hold on myself! I laughed at that, he seemed to notice that too and laughed along, our lips still locked and doing their movements. His hands went down my hair, to my shoulders, to back, not to my chest/breasts (which I appreciated so much) then to my waist, he just kept them there. I was actually delighted that he wasn’t taking this farther than he should, and neither was I. he backed away after maybe the most intense make out session I’ve ever had. I opened my eyes to stare at his now more satisfied and blissful eyes. He was breathing kind of profoundly, “What? You can’t keep up?” I joked, giving him a wink. “Haha, you make me titter!” and we continued our lip-locking.

I don’t know how much time passed, but all I know was that we couldn’t get enough of each other! The best I’ve ever made out in my life, and I guessed it was his best too. He lay on his side and I slid under his warm, muscular arms. I felt safe and sound in them; they were my shield from harm. “Harry, were you planning to kiss me when you wanted to come see me?” I asked, that question popped into my head when I realized what an amazing kiss we shared, like it was natural, like how everything else seemed natural to us, it felt like this was all written in the stars for us. “Well, yea, but I didn’t expect us to go this far, and this well!” he said smiling and delighted with this outcome. “But why did you want to anyway?” I asked still curious and confounded. “That’s because we kissed before.” And that’s when it hit me! I knew that his kiss was familiar, because we’ve kissed before! “When was that?” I asked just to make sure of my assumptions. “Yesterday, when you were on the verge of dying, in between life and death, one second away from life, a second away from meeting your creator-” he said in that Shakespeare, dramatic voice, “Okay, I get it, don’t need to be over dramatic!” I smiled, he chortled. And I remembered everything crystal clear.
