In And Out Of Love

I woke up the next morning and felt a little chilly. As I turned around to my other side, I noticed Harry had hoarded the blanket all to himself. No matter how hot it got especially during summer, I still needed a blanket when I slept. I lifted the edge of the blanket and snuggled close to Harry. His body was warm and I left out a sigh as I got a good position next to him.

Harry’s eyes were still closed although he lifted his right arm and placed it over my upper body. His fingers started making little twirling motions on my back and I looked at him smiling. He opened his eyes as well.

“Sorry about the blanket – again. We seriously need either a bigger blanket or one for the both of us.” Harry said quietly and kissed my forehead.

“I should know better already. Next time, I will get you your very own blanket.” I smiled at him. As I stretched my body to its whole length, I felt an unpleasant twitch on my left inner thigh. “Ouch… it really hurts here.” I continued and placed my hand over where it was hurting.

“Were we really that wild last night? You sure are flexible. But maybe you should warm-up a little before throwing your legs to those weird, beautiful positions.” Harry chuckled and placed his hand over mine so it was resting on my inner thigh as well.

“Oh, shut up!” I joined him laughing, pulling my hand away from my thigh and shook my head in disbelief.

Harry kept on smiling but squeezed my thigh at the same time where his hand was still resting. He kept on moving it upwards, finally placing his hand over my boxer shorts, just the thin fabric keeping his hand away from my crotch. He raised his eyebrows as if silently asking for my mood.

“Are you trying to make me feel better? Go ahead then, work your magic.” I replied to his unspoken question and smirked.

He didn’t waste no time in getting his hand underneath my shorts and started rubbing my clit gently. I bit my lower lip as the amazing sensation of feeling extremely good started taking over me, little by little. His hand and fingers started moving more aggressively and soon after he placed one finger inside me. I moaned as it entered me and tilted my head back. He placed another one. Harry turned to look at me and then kissed me, pressing his lips hard on mine.

We kissed passionately, our tongues touching like we couldn’t get enough of each other. I was already breathing heavily and he moved on to rubbing my clit again. He knew that was the thing for me; he didn’t have to work for very long until I came.

“I could watch you come over and over again. Incredibly sexy. I hope you feel better?” Harry asked and removed his hand from my shorts.

“Obviously, you didn’t have to ask that. But since you did, I feel pretty damn good right now. Come here.” I smiled, placed my hand behind his neck and pulled him in for a long kiss.

We had just finished eating breakfast when my phone started ringing. Harry handed it to me and I looked at the screen. It said “Dad”. I flinched because I knew he was going to start with “I haven’t heard from you for so long, you should call more often, why didn’t you call me back” and so forth. He had called me last week but I was doing something and couldn’t answer. And then I just forgot to call him back.

“Hi, dad. What’s up?” I answered cheerfully to the phone.

“Hi Gracie. Good good, little worried though. I almost called your mother because I didn’t hear from you last week. You know I hate it when…” Dad started with his rambling.

“Yes, yes. I know. I’m sorry. I was in the middle of something and just forgot to call you back.” I defended myself. Harry looked at me, resting his head to the side of his hand.

“Fine, fine. So, how are you? School’s almost over, you must be happy?” Dad asked and laughed a little at the other end of the phone.

“I know, it’s pretty exciting! Like always. We have already planned some activities for summer.” I explained hurriedly. I already knew where the conversation was going.

“Sounds nice, dear. So, any plans on coming to London and staying with us for a little bit longer this time? I mean, we last saw each other during Christmas. And it went by so fast. You know we would really like for you to come here.” Dad said, his voice encouraging and happy, still knowing his wishes would probably not be granted.

I bit my lip and flinched. I hated doing this to him. I hated telling him no and that I would come and visit him only if Caitlyn went away for the night. It was as if I was a five year old. Fine, maybe I should give in this time and act a little more grown-up simply because it was the right thing to do. But now I had another dilemma; I had Harry. I didn’t want to waste any days without him this summer. It was going to be our first summer together.

Harry looked at me, raising his eyebrows and shaking his head a bit towards me, silently asking why wasn’t I speaking anything to the phone. I snapped out of my thoughts and cleared my throat before I spoke to dad again.

“Um, yeah. About that… So, I’ve been thinking I could come over for a few days. And I’d really like if Caitlyn could be there too.” I said in a weird voice, sounding very different to myself and to Harry who kept looking at me with a funny expression playing on his face.

“Really? Oh, that is fantastic! It’s going to be great, Caitlyn will be so happy. And I’m the happiest.” Dad answered and was obviously smiling from ear to ear to what he had just heard.

“But you know London is quite far away from here and I would hate not to be able to see Harry. I was thinking maybe he could come there too, with me. You would meet him as well. And I might even stay for a little longer, or we would.” I knew I was basically blackmailing dad with my suggestion. I heard him sigh at the other end of the phone.

“Right. Well, we’ll talk about that with your mother.And Harry obviously needs to get permission from his mum as well. But if it’s the only way getting you here and making you stay for more than a day, then fine.” Dad said and gave up surprisingly easily.

I felt really bad. It was not usual for him to give up like this, without any fight. He just really wanted to see me and spend some time with me. I really had to try to fix things with him this time around, he definitely deserved it.

We ended the phone call shortly after and I went to the fridge to get more orange juice. I poured some to my glass and then offered the bottle to Harry who shook his head. He lifted his head from his hand and ran his fingers through his hair and pushed it back.

“I guess we’re going to London then?” He tilted his head, making some of his hair fall back to the side of his face.

“I’m sorry you had to hear that. I just have a hard time with him when it comes to holidays. I’ve been punishing him for so long that I have a hard time stopping now. Can you imagine I have always wanted Caitlyn out of the house when I went there? I always only saw her for a little while, like for an hour or two. That’s actually pretty fucked up.” I said more to myself than to Harry.

“Well honestly, that does sound a little weird. But hey, we all have our little flaws and fixations. These things make us human, you know. You’re still pretty normal otherwise.” He smiled softly, got up from his chair and came over to me and wrapped his arms around my waist.

“Thanks babe. But I promise to grow up, starting now.” I smiled and placed my hands to his back. “What about London? Do you think you could come with me for a few days? Only if you want to, of course.”

“London sounds great, of course I want to. I just need to ask mum about it. Just a little nerve-wracking to meet your dad.”

“He’ll love you. Like everybody else.” I smiled and tiptoed to kiss his cheek.

We heard the front door open and close as mom came home. Harry gave me a quick peck on the lips before taking his seat again. Mom came to the kitchen.

“Hello children!” She greeted us happily and left her purse on the counter. “How are you, hun? Any coffee for me?” She asked me and gave me light hug.

“There’s still enough for a cup. Here.” I poured coffee to mom’s usual coffee mug and handed it to her. She took a sip and sighed, looking at me. I bet she was quietly thinking if we had been good or not.

“So, I’m going to spend a few days with dad and Caitlyn this summer. And we were thinking if Harry could come there with me? Dad said he would talk about it with you but that it was alright.” I started telling mom about the phone conversation earlier.

“Really? A few days? That sounds… good. I’m happy about that. And Harry, if your mother is fine with you going there with Gracie, it’s fine with me.” Mom smiled and really meant what she said. She was seemingly happy about this little step forward as she always told me how much dad loves me and wants me to be a part of his life. I smiled too. Things were going to be alright.

Harry left home a little while later as he had band practice with the lads. I spent my alone time studying for the last English test I was going to have next week before our holiday. A few hours went by fast and I welcomed the break happily when my phone rang. I picked it up from my bed where I had left it.

“Hello?” I answered hurriedly and realised I didn’t even check the screen to see who it was.

“Could we meet tonight? I really need to talk with you.” A guy’s voice said quickly.

It took me a few seconds before it sunk in; it was Theo. And he sounded worried.
