“Thank you so much for letting us stay.” I hugged Anne.

“It was no problem at all dear. It was nice to have Harry home and so great to finally get to meet you!”

“Have a safe trip home,” Robin said and hugged both of us.

“Bye mom, Robin. I’ll call you guys!” Harry said as we headed to his car. I turned and waved one last time.

“Bye!”

Anne and Robin stood on the steps and watched us pull out. I waved one last time before they disappeared from my view.

“Your parents are so gracious.”

“They loved you.”

“I loved them, too.” He laughed.

“Good.”

I closed my eyes for the drive home. I felt Harry’s hand grab mine causing me to open my eyes. I grabbed his as well letting our hands rest between the seats.

“We need to move your stuff into our place,” he said after a few moments. I smiled when he emphasized the “our”. I nodded slowly.

“Yes. When do you think we can do that? Isn’t your schedule picking up now?”

“Yes, but how about over Christmas? The lads and I get another week off before returning for the new year.”

“Okay. That’s fine with me.”

“I’m not sure I can wait that long, though. I want to move your stuff the minute we get home!”

“It’s only five weeks. I think you can handle five weeks. Besides, most of my stuff is over at your flat anyway.” He squeezed my hand.

“I know, but I want it to be official now!”

“I think you’ll be okay.” I pecked his cheek. The rest of the ride was pretty quiet. I couldn’t handle the silence so I turned on the radio. “What Makes You Beautiful” blasted through the speakers. Harry made a move to change the channel but I slapped his hand away with a sly grin. I rolled my window all the way down and sang along.

“Baby, you light up my world like nobody else. The way that you flip your hair gets me overwhelmed, but when you smile at the ground it ain’t hard to tell, you don’t know-ow-ow, you don’t know you’re beautiful!” I sang as the wind caressed my face. I heard Harry laugh and saw him shake his head.

“Can we please change it now?”

“No.”

“Please? It’s so weird listening to myself on the radio.” I burst out laughing.

“Fine, fine.”

He flipped through stations until he found one he liked. “One and Only” played
through the speakers.

“So I dare you to let me be your, your one and only. I promise I’m worth it, to hold in your arms. So come on and give me a chaaaance!”

“To prove I am the one who can, walk that mile, until the end starts!” I finished. I saw him look at me through the corner of my eye. I looked at him.

“What?”

“You sing really well.”

“You sound surprised.”

“I am a bit. I don’t think I’ve ever heard you sing until now.”

I pondered his statement. I didn’t think that was true since I sang in the shower.

“I sing in the shower,” I said.

“Yeah, but I usually can’t hear you over the water and the vent.” I laughed. We continued to sing along to the radio which made the three hour trip back to London fly by.

“I love this bed,” I said with my face in the mattress. It smelled like his aftershave. I inhaled deeply, loving the scent. Harry laughed and the bed depressed as he sat down. I flipped onto my back to look into his eyes.

“Have I ever told you how much I love your eyes? They’re so beautiful,” I said while maintaining eye contact.

“And I love yours.” He leaned down to kiss me, and I wrapped my arms around his neck pulling him down. He gladly obliged and we soon had a very heated snogging session on our hands.

His tongue found his way into my mouth and mine into his. They fought with each other for dominance as Harry’s hands ran up my stomach making me shiver. He flipped us over so I was on top. I pulled him up and straddled his hips. My hands made their way into his hair as his made their way to my ass. He pulled our hips closer, and I felt his erection.

I tugged a bit on his hair and he moaned.

“Oh god, Darcy. Why do you do this to me?” The lust was thick in his voice. He ran kisses down the side of my neck and it was my turn to moan in pleasure.

“I want you,” I said into his ear. “But I’m just not ready yet.” He pulled away and looked into my eyes.

“I will wait forever for you.”

He attached his lips back to mine. A knock at the door caused him to groan.

“Hi gu-oh. Umm, sorry,” Louis said as he backed out of the room. I laughed at the expression on his face and climbed off of his lap.

“Soon. I promise.” I pecked his lips once more and ran my hands through my hair in an attempt to tame it.

“I love you, Darcy Rae. I will wait for you for as long as it takes,” he said again. His hands went around my waist and his chin rested on my shoulder.

“I love you, too Harold Edward.”
