One Shots

Crystal&Harry

I break into a wide grin as I skip outside, followed closely by Harry. "I love it outside! It's finally warm enough for shorts" I exclaim happily as I fall back onto the grass and closing my eyes, letting the warmth sweep over me. Harry lets out a chuckle laying down in the grass next to me. I turn on my side and look at his face a mere couple inches from mine. I see his eyes glance down at my lips and I know what he's thinking. I smile as he starts leaning in before I see the tree behind him.

"Tree" I shout scrambling up and running over to it. "Last one up is a rotten egg" I call with a laugh, hearing Harry groan and stand up. I quickly grab the first branch pulling myself up as I swiftly climb as high as I could. With a laugh I glance down to see how close behind Harry was and I see him still on the ground. He was standing there, his hands in his pockets looking up at me with a smile. "C'mon" I call down to him but he just shakes his head.

"I don't like heights" he calls back. I stick out my tongue at him with a huff. "Party pooper" I say as I begin to make my way down. When I get close to the bottom, I step on a branch and it snaps under me. With a scream I squeeze my eyes closed as I fall the rest of the way out of the tree. I land with an “oomph". It was a surprisingly soft landing. I peek open my eyes to see that I was lying on top of Harry who had a pained expression on his face.

"You caught me" I say in surprise as he opens his eyes looking up at me.

"Of course" he says like it should be completely obvious. "I'll always be there to catch you when you fall."

“Although” he adds as an afterthought. “Hopefully it won’t be as painful” he says with a chuckle. I laugh, shaking my head slightly, leaning down and kissing him.
