Fate

Chapter 25

HARRY'S POV

While she's taking a shower I change.

I just put on a pair of blue denim skinny jeans and I put on my plain white t shirt. I also put on my brown boot shoes, and my signature black coat.

I need to use the bathroom a little bit, but Stella's in there. Maybe that's just an excuse.

"Stella," I say to her from the creak underneath the door.

"Yeah Harry?" She says through the water.

"I need to pee." I admit.

"I'm almost done." She shouts.

"No like really bad." I say, I really can't hold it but at the same time I want to see her in the shower.

"Harry-" she says when I barge in.

I unzip my pants and jokingly say "Ahhhh." To get her attention.

"Harry!" She says in the shower.

"What? We live together and I needed to go!" I lie.

She laughs and then I get out.

I go and see my reflection and I'm quite impressed. Lillian wasn't joking when she said I was a Casanova.

"I'm going to get dressed." She says.

"Don't come in!"

"I won't Stel." I wink at her.

I go and brush my teeth and put on a thin band to keep my hair from going in my face.

"You know you should really knock next time." Stella says walking out if my room.

She's wearing something simple. Jeans and a loose white shirt. Somehow she makes it look beautiful.

I can see her bump that carries a new life, but I can't seem to remember I created that.

STEL'S POV

Harry looks me up and down.

I don't know why he always looks at me when I put a new outfit on.

"You looks beautiful." He smiles.

"Thank you." I smile.

I walk back to the bathroom and shake my naturally curly hair.

"All set." I say looking at Harry.

"Lets go." He agrees.

It's already 1:24 by the time were both done with getting dressed.

He opens the front door and closes it on our way out.

He opens my door first as usual, and puts the key in the ignition of his big Tahoe.

"I think I need gas." He says looking at the cars monitors.

"Okay," lets stop at that store I say pointing to the left.

"I need to get pills anyway."

"Pills? For what?" He says looking at my stomach.

"Prenatal Vitamin pills. For the baby." I say.

"Oh, okay. You need money?" He says trying to find his wallet.

"No I'll take care of it." I say.

We do what we have to do and I put my pills in the Louis Vuitton purse I own.

"That's a nice bag." Harry says while driving off.

"Thanks, I got it for my 16th birthday. It's a speedy 25." I say looking at him.

"Wow." He says.

To think that was only 2 years ago gives me anxiety. I don't know why I feel older, but I'm still a teenager. I'm an adult, but I still am categorized as a "teen."

We arrive to IHop and the waitresses do their job and sit's us at a booth.

I know how Harry likes his booth so we should be comfortable.

"I'm still sorry about the whole Chili's thing." I apologize.

"No it's fine, I can understand why you did that." He admits.

"You do?" I ask curiously.

"Yeah, no one wants to wait for their food that long." Harry giggles and I nudge him in the arm.

"Your mean!" I say laughing.

I wish I knew how he felt about me, about us.

Before I could say anything, the waitress comes and takes our order.

"What would you like?" She asks me.

"Umm, I'll take the chicken and waffles." I say and hear Harry laughing at me.

I ignore his childish remarks.

"What about you?" The waitress asks Harry.

"I'll take the same." He says not breaking eye contact with me.

"Alright. Ill be back with your orders!" She says leaving with a smile.

I want to ask Harry why he's laughing at my order, but he ordered it too!

"So, what's up?" I ask Harry.

"Stella? Is that you? " I hear a very familiar voice.

My mom? At IHop?

"Mum?" Harry says with confusion.

"Oh Anne! Hi! Great to see you!" I stand and give her a kiss on the cheek.

"Why are you here?" Harry asks her.

"I'm with my company. They offered a free brunch so I came!" She says with a big smile on her face.

"Oh." He says.

"You both look nice!" She says looking at us.

"You too mum, now can we get back to our brunch too?" Harry says rudely.

"Okay. Ill be at your apartment later on in the week, yeh?" She says to Harry.

"Alright." He says.

"Rude." I blurt out.

"I was kidding and she knows that." He laughs.

I join him.

Our food gets here and we eat because we hardly ate yesterday.

I leave 1 piece of chicken and half a waffle on my plate.

Harry finishes his whole plate.

Without asking he takes my chicken.

"Sure you can have it." I say sarcastically.

He laughs but still eats it ignoring my comment.

"You done?" He says.

"Yeah. " I say back.

"Did you guys find everything alright?" The waitress asks.

"Yes." He says.

"Receipt please."

"Here you go." The lady says.

"Thanks." Harry says putting the cash down.

"I'll pay half." I offer.

"No, I'm going to pay, I'm the man." He says.

We both laugh and walk out together.
