Hickey

   Waking up to silence and realising that I had for once, actually had a good night’s sleep, “Awake, then?” A smooth voice chimed from beside me as hands slid over my hips,

   Harry pulled my into him and nuzzled my neck, affectionately, I leant on his curls, “You smell nice,” He whispered into my skin,

   “I know,” I replied with a grin,

   Suddenly, his head popped up and his green eyes squinted at me suspiciously, “Did you use my bubble bath? My strawberry one?”

   Smiling, I shrugged innocently, “Perhaps,”

   Harry growled playfully, “I can smell it on you,” He sniffed my neck,

   “You don’t mind, do you?” I asked with a small pout and flutter of my lashes,

   Grinning, Harry kissed me softly, “Of course not,”

   “Good,” I pecked him back, “Because it reminds me of you,” I whispered, Harry smiled and kissed me again, harder this time,

   Pulling away, I grinned, “What are you doing?” Harry asked as I swung my legs out of the bed,

   “I’m going to have a shower,”

   “It seems like you spend most of your time in that bathroom,”

   I sighed and collected a few items of clothing, “That’s because most people tell me to,” Harry winked at me, I rolled my eyes and vanished into the bathroom,

   Closing the door behind me, I pulled off my oversized t-shirt and turned to water on, then, I climbed in and let it roll over my aching body,

   Starting to softly sing, well, humming mostly, to the song Harry kept singing ‘Kiss you’. All of a sudden, I opened my eyes to find Harry’s grinning face opposite mine,

   “What are you doing in here?” I tried to sound stern and frustrated but couldn’t help my smile shine through,

   Harr’s grin widened, “Obeying your command,”

   “What command?”

   “To kiss you,” And so, he did,

   Fifteen minutes later and I climbed out of the shower, Harry followed after me, I threw him a towel after wrapping myself in one,

   I glanced quickly in the mirror and squealed, “What?” Harry asked looking down at me with slight concern in his eyes,

   Whirling around, I scowled, “You gave me a hickey?” I cried, “A hickey!”

   Harry grinned and traced the red mark that scarred my neck with his finger, “You weren’t complaining before,”

   “Ugh,” I snorted, laughing Harry walked out the bathroom wrapping his bottom half in a towel,

   “I’m going to get dressed,” Quickly, he scurried back, I was still inspecting the mark in the mirror when I saw his face appear in the doorway, “By the way,” He smiled, “You and I are going out later,”

   Before I got a chance to ask anything at all, he vanished, I sighed heavily and prodded my neck one more time before throwing some clothes on,

   Then, one I was satisfied in my denim jeans and tucked in light blue ‘denim’ style top, I perched by the dresser and attempted to cover the mark with makeup,

   Fortunately, it worked fairly well and if I positioned my hair in the right way, you could hardly see it at all,

   So, I skipped happily down the stairs and into the kitchen, “Hey,” Niall grinned at me, “You look happy,”
