Chapter 18 <3

Harry’s P.O.V

I couldn’t help but smile at the sight of Kenzie all curled up in my arms sleeping ever so cutely. I almost didn’t want to wake her up, I liked having her close to me besides last night was one of the best nights sleep I’ve had in ages. I played with one of her curls twirling it around my fingers while I stared out the window as the sun broke through the early morning fog. I sighed contently gently closing my eyes with a small smile on my face, I could get used to this. I felt Kenzie shift slightly in my arms and heard a yawn escape her lips, I snuck a glance at her to see her eyes flutter open, she looked around the room taking in her surroundings looking a little startled probably wondering where she was, as realization hit her she sighed and looked over at me. Her beautiful blue eyes were clouded with an expression I couldn’t read but a few seconds later it was gone and a small smile appeared on her face, “Morning.” She whispered softly.

“Hi.” I whispered back, her eyes drifted to my hand, which was still twirling her hair about, I froze and awkwardly dropped my fingers a blush appearing on my cheeks, oops.

She laughed her eyes sparkling in the dim sunlight peering through the window, “No need to be embarrassed.” She taunted grabbing my dimples.

“Shut up.” I whined before an idea popped into my head, a sly smile broke out onto my face as I sneakily slid my hand over Kenzie’s stomach, she looked at me questioningly but before she could say anything I attacked her with tickles. She burst out laughing and began squirming and thrashing against my hands, “Stop!” She giggled breathlessly through her laughs. “Ok! Ok! I’m sorry!” She choked out a few tears falling down her cheeks from laughing so hard.

I let go of her and she smacked me upside the head with a pillow, “Ouch!” I cried rubbing my forehead, “Don’t mess up the curls.” I joked and she rolled her eyes before lying back down next to me her head resting gently on my chest.

I was somewhat shocked that she voluntarily did that, I thought Louis was the only one who could hold her like I was holding her now. I wrapped my arms around her and closed my eyes, we laid like that for a few minutes in silence, but not awkward silence, comfortable silence. I couldn’t help but smile the whole time, I was so in love with this girl and I thought I would never get the chance to do this, I could feel myself drifting off to sleep again, I buried my face in her hair breathing in the smell of her strawberry shampoo and marveling at how perfect this moment is, can I please stay like this forever? “Harry I’m scared.” Kenzie whispered breaking the silence, I could feel her hands clench into a fist of nerves and her small body start to shake.

How could I forget? Today was the day we were supposed to go see Kenzie’s mother. I soothingly drew circles in her back to calm her down, “Don’t worry Kenzie, it’ll be perfectly fine. I promise you.” I whispered.

“But what if its not?” She quavered, “What if I get shut out again, so many people hate me, and they’re not just going to willingly accept me again.”

 “Kenzie all you can do is try, if they shut you out again they’re missing out on spending time with the strongest, courageous most amazing girl I’ve ever met. Seriously you’re perfect in my eyes, anyone who can hold on as long as you have and try so hard to make things better is a strong, wholehearted human being. Everyone makes mistakes, but they can always be forgiven. If your mother doesn’t want you around she is truly missing out.” I couldn’t help but let those words slip out of my mouth, I silently cursed myself it was getting harder and harder to contain my feelings for her.

She looked at me somewhat shocked, I winced when she sat up missing the warmth and comfort she radiated and hoping I didn’t push it to far with what I said. “You really mean that?” She said her voice barely above a murmur.

“Yes.”

She ran her hands through her tousled blonde hair before looking at me, “Thank you.” She said her voice breaking, “Thank you for believing I’m not a bad person.” I could tell she was trying not to cry, I felt for her so much it must be awful to go through what she has to deal with everyday. She leaned over and gently kissed my cheek, “You’re the best Harry.”

I froze, did that just happen? Did she really just kiss me? My head was spinning I couldn’t begin to comprehend that she actually kissed me on the cheek. Surely I must be dreaming. “You’re welcome.” I managed to say, “Now come back to bed, I want to sleep.” I whined holding my arms out for her.

She shook her head and said, “Nope its time to get ready to go face my mother.” before jumping out of bed pulling the covers with her and wrapping them around her as she hopped down the hallway into the bathroom.

I smiled before getting out of bed myself, I stretched fighting back the yawn that wanted to escape my lips, I pulled on my jumper that was lying across the couch and smiled when I realized it was the one Kenzie borrowed yesterday. It smelt just like her sweet smelling perfume, I walked over to the window and pulled back the curtains wincing as my eyes adjusted to the harsh change of light. I stared out the window for a few short moments taking in the sights, trees, buildings, streets etc. so Kenzie really grew up here, it was hard to imagine any sort of tragedy happening here it looked like a friendly, peaceful neighborhood. I turned away from the window and pulled a little notebook I brought with me out of my bag, I opened the book and stared at the words letting out a long sigh of frustration. Management gave us a task to write at least one song for the new album and I was having no luck whatsoever. I ripped the page out and crumpled it before throwing it across the room, how can people write a song so easily and make it sound so perfect? I just can’t do it. 

“What goes on?” I heard Kenzie say as she entered the room, I looked up and felt the breath get knocked out of me.

She looked beautiful.

She was dressed in a pink sundress with a floral pattern and white ballet flats, her blonde hair was straightened framing her gorgeous features and making her stunning eyes pop. “Wow.” I whispered. She looked… Irresistible.

And that’s when I knew exactly what my song would be about. It was going to be about her, how she made me feel, how everything she did made me smile, how I thought she was irresistible and how she was the love of my life.
