Darkness Meets Light

Chapter 17

Pushing it into my bag, I walked to my car and unlocked it.

As soon as I sat down my phone began to ring.

"Hey Mom." I said into it.

"Hi Jess, I saw Harry's note. You better not have done anything stupid." She scolded.

"I promise we didn't lay a finger on one another." I said back to her, lying to the extreme.

"Good. On your way home? I need some company. Your grandmother will be here soon." She said.

"Yeah I'm leaving now, see you soon." I said before hanging up and driving away.

---

As I turned down my street, I could see my grandmothers car already parked in the drive way. I smiled as I parked and hoped out, running inside.

"Grandma!" I yelled engulfing her into a hug.

"Hi sweetie, how are you holding up?" She asked placing a hand on my shoulder.

"Hanging in there." I replied.

We stood in silence for a few moments before a smirk spread across her face.

"So where's this boy I've heard about? Harry?" She asked smiling.

"Uhm, he- he left to go visit his mum." I replied.

"Mum?" She said laughing.

"Sorry, that's what Harry calls her." I said smirking.

"Well he sounds adorable." She said, making her way into the kitchen.

"Would you like a salad?" She said cutting up lettuce.

"No thanks, haven't had much of an appetite."

"I can tell, you're skinny as could be!" She replied.

"Well...thanks. I'm going up to my room. Take a shower and what not." I said, placing kisses on their cheeks and walking upstairs.

My room was just how I left it, clothes everywhere, my door mirror still propped against the wall with my makeup sitting in front of it. It felt good to be home.

I pulled out a plain blue v-neck with running shorts and headed to the shower.

Turning on the shower, I waited a few minutes for the water to heat up.

As soon as I hoped in, the warm water dripped down my body, making me feel comfortable.

I washed my hair and was washing my face when I heard my bathroom door open.

"Mom?" I said, peeking around the curtain, still covering myself.

"Harry get out!" I said, freaked out and hiding behind the curtain.

"It's not like I can see you babe." He said.

"I have to get out eventually!" I yelled over the sound of the water.

"So?" He replied, I could mentally see him smirking.

"How did you get in here?!"

"It's called knocking on your door and your mother letting me in."

"Well get out, I have to get dressed." I demanded, turning the water off.

"Don't take long." He said, as I heard him open and shut the door.

I quickly jumped out and locked the door behind him. That cheeky boy.

Throwing my clothes on, and throwing into a towel, I unlocked the door and entered my room.

Harry was propped up in my bed, watching some dumb show on the tv. His arms were behind his head, showing off his amazing muscles and many tattoos.

I tried to ignore him by sitting in front of the mirror I had against the wall. He thinks he can just leave me and act like nothing happened?

His reflection then showed in the mirror. He sat behind me, wrapping his arms around my waist. "I'm sorry Jess." Is all he said.

I noticed that his smell was different. He smelt more of sweat than anything. I looked down to his hands that were wrapped around me. I untangled them and started to inspect them.

Both had little cuts here and there, they were new too. He was smart enough to clean them up so I "wouldn't" notice.

"Where did you go? I called but you completely ignored me." I said, still looking down.

"At first I was driving around because I was pissed off at the world. But then something came up so..."

"And what is something?" I asked, turning to face him, my legs on either side of his waist.

I knew this position completely turned him on by the way he tensed up. This side of Harry is what I liked the most. His weak side.

"You have to tell me." I said demanding. I also noticed a little gash in his lip.

"Okay." He said sighing. "If you really want to know."

I nodded, telling him to continue.

"I was at the gym. The gym for big time boxers and fighters actually. Uhm.." He stopped for a second seeking through his thoughts.

"Uhm..I'm a trainer there. People have been coming in for the past week looking for me, but I've been with you. So I had to go." He said looking at me.

"Understandable. But why couldn't you tell me this earlier?" I asked. "It's not a big deal really..."

"It is Jessamine. It is when you're the top guy in that place. People come in all the time ready to beat my ass for no reason." He then starting grinning. "But I hand their asses to them."

"Which means I'm undefeated." He concluded.

I looked at his eyes and then to his lips, which had a nice little gash on the corner of it. "How does that feel?" I asked jokingly, pointing to his swollen and gashed lip.

"Not too well."

I leaned in a gave him a peck on his lips and looked back at him.

"Better?"

"Not quite.." He said taking my head in his hands and kissing me.

"How about now?" I said asking again.

"Getting there," he said, pecking my lips repeatingly, making me laugh.

"Harry," I said in between kisses. "Enough."

"I taste the blood and it's grossing me out." I said giggling at him.

He then attacked me with his mouth, pushing me onto my back. I wrapped me legs around his waist, teasing him.

"God, Jessamine." He said.

I put my hands on his broad shoulders and began kissing/sucking on his neck, sure to leave a hickey.

My hands trailed up and down his toned chest, making him smile.

"You're such a tease." He stated.

"Get over it." I replied, being sassy.

"No." He said giving me and quick kiss and jumping up, bringing me with him.

Some of you guessed right (; movie theater guy!
