JADE'S POV:
I felt myself stir as the bed shifted. I peeked open an eye and saw Harry sitting up. He was trying to be careful and not wake me up. Keyword: trying.
I groaned slightly and his head immediately swivelled towards me. His hair fell in his eyes and he flicked it away with his hand.
"Oh shit! Did I wake you up?" He whispered with his British accent.
I nodded, "It's alright."
"Shit. I'm so sorry." He apologized, just siting up in bed. Harry slowly slipped the covers off of himself.
I hummed and my eyes shut. "It's alright. What's the time?"
"Nine thirty." He replied.
I groaned again. "Stay here. I want to cuddle with you."
I peeked open an eye and he was smiling so that his dimples were deep in his cheeks. "Bu-"
"Cuddle!" I ordered sternly.
"Okay, okay!" He put his hands up in surrender and let out a laugh.
I felt the warmth in my body return as he laid back down with me. I smiled and closed my eyes as he wrapped his arms around my shoulders. I snuggled my head into his neck and breathed in his scent. I love him.
I placed my leg over his waist so that I was literally latched onto him... Like a koala. I felt his arm move down and he moved my leg closer to him. He let out a satisfied hum and wrapped his arm back around my shoulder.
"Did you sleep well?" He spoke in my ear. His hot breath sent shivers down my spine.
"Yeah," I whispered. "You?"
He mumbled a 'yes'.
I slipped away into thoughts, whilst being all cuddled up with Harry. We just came back from Toronto and to say that Harry and my family got together was an understatement.
We ended up spending Christmas at my family's place. It was loads of fun. Harry didn't want to leave but we had to because of work.
Suddenly, I realized something!
"Harry!" I whispered, smiling like an idiot. "Guess what?!"
He looked surprised as I looked at him. He smiled a bit. "What?"
"Today is New Year's Eve!" I exclaimed, suddenly wide awake.
A look of realization spread on Harry's face. Looks like we both had forgotten.
"Oh God, you're right!" He exclaimed smiling too. "It's New Years today!"
I nodded and plopped a kiss on his lips. He smiled even more. I pulled back and sat up.
"Could we call the crew over?!" I questioned, while looking at Harry. "Please, baby?"
He smirked and nodded. "I love the nickname." He pointed me out.
I felt the colour on my cheeks start rising. Ignoring him, I got out of bed smiling. "Shut up."
He laughed as I walked over to the bathroom. "Hurry up." He called from the bed.
"Alright," I replied. "Don't miss me too much!"
He rolled his eyes playfully, and leaned on his arm. I laughed at my own joke and walked into the bathroom.
•••••
I hogged the mirror in the bathroom as Harry changed in the bedroom. It's around 8:30 and I'm trying to make myself look presentable. Trying to keep my hand steady, I was finishing up my winged liner on my right eye. My lips were a light pink and I had done my hair in loose curls.
I brushed the mascara bristles through my thick eyelashes. The mascara worked its magic as I heard Harry speak.
"How do I look?" He asked, setting a foot in the bathroom.
I looked at him through the mirror. "You look great," I replied while checking out his printed button-up.
He smiled cheekily as I put my supplies away. I was wearing a pale pink and sequenced blouse along with by dark-wash jeans.
"Those jeans look great on you," Harry continued, leaning on the doorway frame.
I gently pinned back my loose bangs and smiled at him. "Thanks Harry."
I walked towards the doorway and looked at Harry expectantly, as he hasn't moved.
"Are you moving or?..." I trailed on, fighting back a smile.
He smiled and crossed his arms. "No, I'm not moving until..." He went into thought. "Until you kiss me!"
I rolled my eyes at his childish behaviour. "Oh, Harry." Was all I said.
I leaned forwards and planted a short and sweet kiss on his lips. His large hand moved to my waist and his other hand slipped into the back pocket of my jeans.
He was smiling into my lips and I was doing the same. We pulled back slowly and he tucked a piece of my hair behind my ear.
"You look beautiful. You always do." He whispered quietly.
I blushed and looked down.
"Look at me, baby. I want to see those gorgeous eyes." He spoke softly and gently. Harry pushed my head up by my chin, forcing me to look at him.
"It's almost been a year of us being together." He continued as I lovingly wrapped both of my arms around his neck.
"I know," I whispered, not taking my eyes off of his breath-taking eyes.
"I love you." He blurted.
I laughed lightly. "I love you too, Harry. I love you too."
With that, I attached our lips. My hand was resting on the nape of his neck and his rested on my waist.
Our kiss was cut short as the doorbell rang. I pulled back and smiled at him.
"Race you to the door!" I yelled, taking off.
"Wait! What?" He called after me as I ran down the stairs.
I laughed to myself and heard footsteps trailing after me.
I reached the security alarm and stared at it. Harry has worked it before but I've never really noticed.
I pressed the button on the touch screen. It turned green and 'Speak Now' flashed on the screen.
"Who's there?" I spoke, hoping that I understood this.
"'Ello! It's yer ol' mate Niall! I'd appreciate if ya opened the door!" I noticed that there was a surveillance video. Sure enough, Niall was standing there along with Louis and another person.
Harry came to a halt behind me. "You know how to work that?" He wrapped his arms around my waist and rested his chin on my shoulder.
"I guess." I replied. I tapped the 'Disarm Front-Door button' and then talked again. "Come in!"
I heard the front door open, even from our place in the kitchen.
"Let's go!" I nudged Harry.
I ran over to the front door. "Niall!" I screamed.
His head turned towards me and he kicked off his shoes.
"Jade!" He screamed.
I ran over to him and wrapped him in a super tight hug. "Louis! Join us!" I added.
Soon enough, another pair of arms wrapped around Niall and I. "We missed you!" Louis said enthusiastically.
"I missed you two so much!" I replied as we pulled back.
Niall and Louis said 'hi' to Harry, sharing a quick hug. The random person was talking to Harry.
"This is my girlfriend and hairstylist, Jade." Harry pulled me close by the waist. He smirked at me. "And Jade, this is my childhood mate, Matt."
I greeted him politely and he did the same.
•••••
Soon enough, everyone had arrived and the party was in full-swing. The whole 'Tour Crew' is here and a lot of Harry's celebrity friends. Music was blasting and the backyard was lit up as people buzzed in chatter.
My eyes flashed over to the clock as Zayn and Sophia talked on my right and Eleanor and one of Harry's friends' talked on my left. Eleanor and Sophia were, by chance, roaming around in Los Angeles with their boyfriends and so I invited them over too. The clock read 11:31 pm and I got up from the couch.
Red cups were scattered everywhere and my eyes widened at the mess. Oh God, we'll have to clean that up.
I walked into the backyard where the breeze blew lightly and music was blasting even louder. Lots of people were dancing as I struggled to find Harry.
I walked over to the food stand, whilst talking to a few people. My eyes scanned the food. I licked my lips and reached for a cupcake just as I felt a hand around my waist. I let out a gasp and the cupcake fell from my grip.
"Hey babe," Harry spoke with his raspy voice.
"Jesus Christ!" I exclaimed while resting a hand on my chest. "Don't scare me, Harry!"
He chuckled lowly and wrapped his arms around me. He slowly nuzzled his face in my neck. "Oh. I'm sorry, baby."
I smiled. "It's okay. Harry, there are other people here. They're gonna see us being lovey-dovey and shit."
"Let them see us be 'lovey-dovey and shit'," Harry dragged out, while quoting me.
I laughed and licked the sweet gourmet delicacy. I moaned in satisfaction as the sweet taste tingled on my taste buds.
"You like those?" Harry asked, placing a kiss on my cheek.
I hummed in agreement while continuing to munch on the yummy treat. "Gimme some." He mumbled.
I turned my head a bit and held the cupcake to his mouth. He smiled at me and his tongue stuck out and poked the cupcake. I laughed and scrunched up my nose.
"Ew! Harry, either eat the cupcake properly or just don't eat it at all." I exclaimed, trying to hold in my laughter. "Don't contaminate it with your saliva!"
He pulled away from the cupcake and I turned in his arms, so that I was facing him.
"It's shouldn't matter." He stated, trying not to laugh.
"Why?" I rolled my eyes.
"Because I've already contaminated your mouth with my saliva." Harry replied.
The blush rose on my cheeks immediately and my eyes widened. "Harry! You freak!" I squealed.
He tossed his head back and roared in laughter. I couldn't help but catch his laughter and eventually I was laughing too.
"You're an asshole." I stated while biting my lip to stop my incoming laughter.
"I know I am, babe. I know I am." Harry slung his arm around my shoulder and grabbed the cupcake from my hand.
I whimpered at my loss and stuck out my bottom lip. "Give it back."
He licked the fresh butter-cream and shook his head. Just then, he swiped his finger along the icing and poked my nose. I felt the cool icing on my nose and my eyes widened.
"Harry!" I yelled over the music.
He just laughed and ran away from me. I glared at him as he turned his head and stuck his tongue out.
"Oh, it's on, pretty boy." I huffed under my breath while grabbing another cupcake.
