I begin to wake up, rubbing my eyes, I always dread mornings. I check the time and it's ten in the morning. I turn over and realize Harry isn't there anymore. Did he leave in the middle of the night?
I start to get up and I immediately get a strong smell of bacon and eggs, the smell literally making my mouth water.
I run my hands through my hair, yawning, then when I open my eyes I see Harry cooking in the kitchen, not noticing me yet. So I just lean my shoulder against the wall, watching him.
I walk over and rest my elbows on the counter, with my hand in my palm, making my appearance clear. He turns and looks at me, a smile starting to appear on his face.
"Good morning, I decided to cook if that's okay" he says with a huge smile on his face.
"Morning, and of course, it smells great" I reply, sitting down across from him.
"No food fights this time, I'm actually almost done" he laughs. Even though that food fight was fun, I'm to hungry right now to have another one.
"Okay great, I'm starving" I respond.
Harry gets done with making breakfast and puts it on plates and everything for me. I told him I could get my own plate but he wanted to do it for me so I just let him.
The second Harry brings the food over I dig in. I literally moan at how good it is, which makes Harry give me a weird look.
"Is it good?" He chuckles.
I swallow the food in my mouth to speak "Yes oh my god, this is literally heaven" I admit.
He lets out a deep laugh "A bit of an exaggeration maybe but I'll take it"
"I'm not kidding! You need to teach me your ways!" I add, making him look down and clear his throat, and start smirking.
I lightly smack his shoulder "Does your mind always run off to something dirty"
"No I'm a total innocent gentleman, suit and tie and all" he teases acting like he's tightening an imaginary tie. I laugh at his dumb reply.
"Well sir if you don't mind, I'm going to eat this delicious food now" I nod at him, laughing at myself but going straight to eating. Food this good can't be wasted.
-
I get done with my food a little before Harry so I decide to wash dishes, since he cooked. He comes over trying to wash his "Absolutely not, you cooked, I clean simple as that" I say taking his dish from him.
He throws his hands up in defense "Sorry" he laughs. He doesn't even bother fighting because he knows it's right, and also I can clean up after myself and one extra dish isn't going to kill me.
Harry goes and throws himself on the couch, almost in an impatient way. If he needs to go somewhere he can, he's not stuck here.
I finally get done with dishes about 15 minutes later as I dry my hands and sigh "I'm finally done"
"Thank god" I hear Harry mumble to himself as I turn around and see him right in front of me. He grabs my thighs, hoisting me up on the counter, shocking me.
"What is this all about?" I laugh in shock. He couldn't just speak to me while my feet were on the ground?
"Number one, you" He starts, lowering his lips near my neck "Number two, you" He says, kissing my neck then pulling away to put his lips near my ear "Number three, you" he whispers.
"How special I am" I tease rolling my eyes. "I can tell you woke up in a mood, but I don't want to be the victim" I laugh.
He tilts his head smirking at me "No? You sure?" He asks putting his hands on my thighs, rubbing up and down them.
"I'm sure" I reply in a completely calm voice. His sex god fuckery won't work on me today.
He steps back looking at me like I'm crazy. I guess he's never had somebody not effected by him before. "Okay..."he mumbles to himself all awkwardly.
I roll my eyes at him, lightly chucking to myself as I wrap my legs around his waist pulling him closer to me "Maybe you don't have as much of an effect on me as you think" I shrug, while smirking at him. "Never had someone not fall to their knees for you before?" I tease.
Before he gets a chance to say anything I speak up again "Well listen in, I won't do that, your teasing or whatever, you can do that all day, but don't expect a reaction, because I may not give you one" I smirk at him, as I lean close to his ear.
"Now I'll admit, you're pretty good at it, you've gotten me all trembling before, but teasing is my specialty, and for the way I like to do it, you need self control which you lack a lot of. I may have to start teaching you my ways" I pull back licking my lips.
He just stands there, frozen almost. Just looking at me, not expecting that reaction out of me. Harry lives off of me trembling under his touch, and me being frozen while he teases me and takes control, I don't think he quite understands I can play that game too.
Thing is, Harry lacks some self control, he can't hide that he's aroused at all. Me on the other hand, it's what I do. Which drives Harry crazy, if he's all sexually frustrated while I'm not affected at all, and teasing him.
Which happens to be what I enjoy doing.
I smile at him once more before I jump down, he doesn't even get the chance to try to stop me, because he's to busy in his own head.
I laugh as I throw myself on the couch "So what do you want to do today? Unless you have somewhere else to be?" I ask.
He shakes his head, coming out of his daze once he hears my voice, and just looks at me not saying anything at first. I chuckle as I raise my eyebrows at him. "We can watch some TV for now I guess, and no I have nowhere else to be" He finally speaks up, coming and sitting down on the couch with me.
He clears his throat once he's sitting down, trying to get comfortable. He really can't even pretend he's not frustrated.
During us watching Netflix I keep seeing Harry moving around a lot, and fixing his pants, and I try not laughing out loud so all I do is smirk to myself.
I hear Harry let out a loud sigh "I bet you're pretty proud of yourself aren't you, you smirking like that is making it pretty obvious" he speaks up.
"So what if I am" I respond, shrugging.
"Leah there's no way your not effected at all" he says, having confidence in his voice.
I slowly turn my head towards his "Wanna bet?" I reply.
He practically jumps and grabs my face, smashing his lips into mine, I respond back kissing his with just as much force. He slips his tongue into my mouth, caressing mine.
He pushes me back into the couch, pinning my arms above my head and moving his lips down to my neck, starting to kiss there. He grabs under my knee to signal to me to bend my legs so he can rest between them.
"Leah your driving me absolutely crazy" he admits, breathing heavily.
He starts to move down to to my stomach, lifting my shirt to kiss there. He looks up at me for approval, I nod my head at him, as he starts to kiss there in a needy way.
He pauses though a looks up at me with a smug look on his face "Wait but weren't you the one wanting to be in control?"
I lighting laugh, lifting myself up on my elbows "I can be, but also seeing you like this is fun." I laugh but stop as I grab his face pulling him up to me "Also, you do effect me, just not all in a sexual way" I confess.
His eyes immediately soften. It's crazy how Harry and I can go from complete sexual tension to all soft and sweet. Even though Harry and I have crazy sexual tension, it's much more than that, whether I want to admit it or not.
He sighs while looking down for a moment, but then meeting my eyes "Leah can I ask you a serious question?" He speaks up, I nod at him.
He gets up and sits down in front of me, as I sit up also. He starts to twist the rings on his fingers, he only does that when he's nervous.
"What do you feel for me?" He blurts out.
This is the question I've been dreading, but I can't lie to him.
"I like you" I admit "and I don't know what it is that we are doing, I just hate putting labels on things. I know I've been acting different or you've seen this different side of me, but my opinions on relationships and things are still the same" I take a pause sighing, coming to a realization.
"I can't use you" I say looking down.
"What do you mean?" I hear Harry ask, sounding confused.
"I mean if you think about it we're friends with benefits practically, since we have no label, and for some fucking reason it hurts doing that to you" I reveal.
He sighs nodding, finally understanding what I mean "Let's just go day by day then, don't consider it that if it upsets you"
"Then what do I call it then Harry?" I say getting a little upset.
I start to realize something that scared the absolute shit out of me...I want him.
I want him to the point that I could even possibly see us having a relationship.
What the fuck is going on with me?
"Two friends that fancy each other?" He says. I don't mean to but I laugh.
"For fucks sake might as well call it a relationship" I blurt out, going wide eyed as I realize what I said.
"Is that something you'd ever want?" He softy speaks.
I swallow hard "I think so" I admit.
When the words leave my lips Harry's eyes go wide as he looks at me like I'm insane. I mean I think I'm insane, so I can't blame him.
"Harry I'm just so complicated and-"
"Leah don't you get it, I don't care!" He interrupts raising his voice, making me flinch slightly "You can keep giving me all these warnings, and you can try as hard as you want to try and push me away but it won't work. I may sound so pathetic with what I'm about to say but" he takes a breath, as I try to prepare myself.
"I want to be with you, yes I like what we have now, but I want to really be with you, but I won't pressure you into it. Being with you meaning I'll take you with all your flaws and bad times, that won't make me walk away. I want you, and all of you, including you being annoying and stubborn" he chuckles to himself.
I know he leaves me speechless a lot but now he's really got me speechless. If he said this to me two weeks back I would have ran, but now I can't. In a way it's something I wanted him to say, but doesn't mean I'm not scared.
What I say next shocks me, it's something i feel deep down but have been to scared to admit, I tried ignoring it and now I'm coming to realize it's something I can't ignore. I can't ignore how I feel about him.
"I want you" I finally admit, feeling as if everything collapses around us and fades away, and it's just me and him.
