Fluff, little stressy bits

Love on tour is in the last four months of shows.

You had been by Harry’s side every step of the way. Through cancelling shows due to the pandemic to seeing him come alive at Coachella to seeing him cry tears of joy at Maddison Square. You’d been there for all of it highs and lows, ups and downs.

You’d been there for each other marrying in a tiny ceremony in 2020 with only the nearest and dearest present, to carrying your first pregnancy whilst on the road with Harry, to giving birth in a foreign country just to be whisked off to the next stop mere days later separated from your husband due to your inability to fly with a newborn. The final straw was being halfway through your second pregnancy and still being on the road with Harry.

Everything had piled up over the last couple of years. You were ready for a break. Despite your undying love for your husband you needed a break. Deep down you knew Harry did too and you knew he knew this.

Being on the road 24/7 was not the life you wanted for your babies nor was it the life that Harry had envisioned for them but your first positive pregnancy test had appeared a little sooner than expected after stopping your birth control. But both you and Harry were firm believers in taking what ever the world was to throw at your in your stride, which is what you did. A short nine months later your little boy was brought into the world with his Daddy at your side each step of the way.

You could never argue that Harry was an absent father and partner because in truth, he wasn’t. He was just busy providing for his family in a non conventional way and you couldn’t have been prouder of him. So when you told him you were pregnant again you couldn’t help but feel guilty, like you were taking a part of his career from him because you would need him more.

Harry had always reassured you ‘we’ll have a nice long break as a family after the tour’ then he would add more shows or book events or award shows or even acting gigs. You were getting frustrated and your growing belly was not helping the situation.

So when you had gotten your son settled for the night after one of Harry’s shows you couldn’t help but curl up into a ball in the hotel room bed fighting off your own tears and sleep as your husband was showering the night off.

You felt the edge of the bed dip as Harry snuggled up to your wrapping an arm around you running his hand over your belly before placing a chaste kiss to your shoulder “y’wake pet?” He whispers softly to which you nod the tiniest bit “y’ok?” He asks placing another kiss to your shoulder. You simply nod closing your eyes not wanting to have this conversation with Harry now.

You sigh rolling over snuggling closer to Harry his hand moving to rub circles into your lower back. You hum softly not realising how tense your back was. Harry places some soft kisses to your forehead and nose “I love you sweetheart, Y’know if you need to talk I’m here” he whispers causing you to smile a little “I love you too H, thank you” you look up at him before leaning across placing your lips onto his. For a long time even before you knew Harry, you’d struggled with opening up about your emotions in fear that it would mean you’d lose everything but Harry had always been incredibly patient with you, never pushed and was always supportive if you needed time.

Harry tries to pull you closer but your belly bumps his own causing him to chuckle lightly. You smile hearing the chuckle leave his lips. You hadn’t heard it much lately but it was still music to your ears. You eventually drift off in Harry’s arms him doing the same. You only stirred at around 6am the next morning when your son Greyson was babbling for his mummy.

You shuffle out of Harry’s arms and waddle to the cot lifting Greyson from it kissing his cheek “good morning sweet boy” you smile. You quickly change his nappy before placing him into bed next to his father while you went to the bathroom.

On your return you find Harry laying on his back, Greyson laying on his chest, covers up over them to keep the pair warm. "Morning" you whisper shuffling back to bed "M'sorry we woke you" you say softly crawling back in next to Harry. He glances up at you with a tired smile before shaking his head a little "No need to apologise pet, he's almost gone back to sleep".

You rest your head on your pillow just admiring the pair. You couldn't help bit sigh a little knowing in a mere 4 months time you and Harry would likely be overwhelmed with your second baby.

“C’mere” Harry whisper softly pulling you to his chest you ended up falling back to sleep on Harry for a couple of hours before being woken by your crying baby. You groan a little rolling onto your back sitting up picking Greyson up as you do so.

Pulling yourself from the bed to get Greyson something for breakfast must have woken Harry, because a mere two minutes later you were met with a husky voice moving it’s way toward you “why don’ y’ let me do breakfast and y’can shower?” Harry asks in his groggy state. You smirk a little “I stink now do I?” You ask he smirks wrapping his arms around you “not at all, but you deserve a nice long shower without being disturbed” Harry kisses down your neck and across your shoulder causing you to hum.

“Ok, thank you H” you turn in his hold kissing him softly he places his hands on your cheeks drawing you back in for another kiss “not long t’go m’love” Harry says hands moving to rub your belly you smile “still can’t believe we accidentally lined it up with the end of tour” you add wrapping your arms around Harry shoulders “umm about that, Jeff wants to add some more shows around Italy it’ll only add another month or two to tour”

You sigh softly dropping your hands to his chest “H we agreed it was time for a break, that’ll take us past my due date” he nods “I know, I know but I figured it wouldn’t hurt, we could spend the summer in Italy, I’m sure mum could stay longer to help out while I’m working…or we can get a nanny? I haven’t said yes or no yet I want us to talk about it”

You raise your brows at Harry, you had always agreed you’d be present enough to look after your children and not rely on someone else “we’re not getting a nanny Harry. I’ll think about it all?” You ask softly, Harry nods moving to kiss your forehead softly “go on jump in the shower babe, I’ll sort breakfast”.

You nod and head off to the bathroom. You were having the longest uninterrupted shower you'd had since your son had been born, which was soon interupted not by the litle boy but by his father sneaking into the shower behind you. "Breakfast was quick" you comment slowly turning to Harry "He went back to sleep before I could even finish cutting up his fruit".

You giggle smiling to yourself "Just like his Dad with his magic ability to fall asleep anywhere, must be tired, second time he’s gone back to sleep this morning" You say softly as Harry's hands come to rest on your hips, his fingers sporting chipped polish rubbing at your sides. "A'ya really mad about the shows?" he asks in a little voice that you very rarely heard out of your overly confident husband. You shake your head, brows creasing your hands moving to his cheeks.

"Never mad H..." you pause chewing at your bottom lip a little "I just wanted to spend the last few weeks of this pregnancy in our own home, with you and with Greyson before life gets even busier" Harry nods a little not knowing what to say "Don't get me wrong Harry I love being on the road with you and I couldn't be prouder of you if I tried, but I'm exhausted, you can try and hide it but I know you are too"

He sighs looking up at the ceiling before looking back at you with tears in his eyes. "I just don't want to dissapoint anyone" he says with a tremble in his voice. You shake your head "baby your not, you've given everything to this tour, all of the band and crew have, but it's time to go home, not just for us, for Mitch and Sarah, Pauli, Jeff, all of us. You’re allowed to take a break hunny" You reason now trying to hold your own tears back.

Harry looks at you tears brimming his waterline before letting out a chuckle "Ok" he starts "It's time to go home" he whispers smiling a little before pulling you into his chest. You hold each other as close as possible for as long as possible before Harry speaks again. "I don't know how you do it" he adds.

"Do what?" you ask running your hands through his now wet curls. "Know exactly what I'm feeling, M'so fuckin' tired" he mumbles. You couldn't help but giggle a little "I dunno, guess I can just see it sometimes, it's in your eyes" Harry doesn't say a word, just attaches his lips to your own silently telling you he loves you.

You stay snuggled in the shower a little while longer before you could hear Greysons cries coming from the bedroom. "I'll get him" you smile a little pecking Harry's lips and his cheek.

*****

Harry had made it to his last ever LOT goodnight speech. You weren’t sure if you were nervous for your husband, or if your constant need to wee was due to your baby using your bladder as a football.

The show was everything Harry could have hoped for, his family and friends were all here and Greyson had been an absolute dream the entire night going between you, his Grandma Anne and Aunty Gem all night. He even got down and had a little boogie during TPWK trying to copy his Daddy as he did the now world famous ‘boot scoot’.

The crowd had gone quiet as Harry began his speech. you soon found yourself chewing your bottom lip quite early on trying to contain your tears. Anne had wrapped an arm around you and her other around Gemma holding you both as close as possible. It wasn’t until Harry’s own voice broke when he looked towards where you were all standing and simple said “Thank you” that you just let the tears flow.

The crowd erupted in awes and in typical Harry style he made a joke about his emotional state causing it to then be filled with giggles, including one from yourself. You sniffle a little and wipe your eyes with your spare hand as Greyson snuggled his little head of dark hair into your neck. “Y’know sometimes I think if we were any prouder of him we would explode” you say glancing up at Anne who lets out a chuckle. “He was always meant to do amazing things, both my babies were. I often wonder what amazing things my grand babies will do if Harry’s done something as amazing as all this” she says moving her arm to wipe her own eyes.

****

You waited up with Harry after the show the entire band and crew winding down before bump out had to begin, congratulating each other hugs and hand shakes were flowing and a few drinks here and there, you stood back waiting for your husband wanting to give him the space he needed to say thank you to those who made the tour possible.

He soon made his way to his wife and now sleeping son. He smiles at you as he makes his way toward you the metallic fringe of his vest and trousers still attached to his frame. He leans down placing a soft kiss to Greysons hair doing his best not to wake him before his left hand comes to rest on your belly leaning down to peck it lightly, then coming up to your lip.

Harry kisses you with a similar amount of passion and love as he did on your wedding day when he eventually pulls away you sigh softly before opening your eyes “I’m so incredibly proud of you Harry, we all are” he simply smiles resting his forehead to yours “Thank you baby” he whispers holding you close to his chest.

Harry went back to mingling a little, Greyson now in his arms, he went around chatting to some of the crew and thanking then. You wait patiently with Harry’s family watching him make his rounds with your son in his arms, you couldn’t help but smile at how lucky you were to have such an amazing husband and son. Eventually Harry makes his way back to you planting a kiss to your temple.

Greyson had woken up and was playing with the fringe of his Daddy’s vest. “Y’up for a walk pet?” He asks softly. You look up at him and nod “of course H” he takes your hand with his spare one heading towards his dressing room getting himself changed before taking you both in the direction of the stage.

You smile listening and watching them interact, it was something you were really looking forward to more of. Once you make it out onto the stage with Harry he puts Greyson on his feet and holds his hand instead. You catch up with the pair sneaking your hand into Harry’s free one giving it a squeeze.

After a few minutes you glance up at Harry smiling a little. “Y’know, I’ve always admired you for doing this Harry, Greysons so lucky to have such an amazing Daddy” you say wrapping your arms around him.

He sniffles lightly placing a kiss to your hair “couldn’t do it without my wife” he smiles before letting go of Greysons hand the little boy crawling around playing with the pieces of feather boa that had blown up onto the stage. Harry pulls away from you a little and cups your cheeks in his hand “really m’love, mean it, there’s no way I could do any of this without you….thank you so so much” he whimpers tears streaming down his face again.

Harry’s emotions had caught up with him not just from this show but from the last two years. It wasn’t long before Greyson was fussing at your feet causing Harry to chuckle a little sniffling again. He leans down picking Greyson up resting him on his hip. “I’m sorry baby it’s well past your bedtime” Harry apologises to his son kissing his nose causing Greyson to squeal excitedly hiding his face in Harry’s neck, Harry breaks into that grin of overwhelming pride rubbing Greysons back, “I love you little man” he whispers kissing his forehead before turning his attention back to you.

“And I love you” he smiles kissing you softly. You giggle a little in his hold “I love you Harry, more and more everyday” you say softly causing Harry to smile. He rests his forehead to yours “let’s go home” he whispers, you smile and hum against “this is home H, you, Greyson and baby, that’s home” you say softly before leaning up to kiss Harry again.

Harry kisses back pulling you closer to his chest he eventually slowly pulls away when your little boy starts poking at his cheek causing Harry to chuckle “ok maybe we should get home and put this cheeky monkey to bed” you giggle leaning up to kiss Greysons cheek. Harry chuckles “good idea love”. He turns a little holding his hand out for you to take.

You intertwine your fingers with Harry and begin walking back inside towards the waiting cars, towards your future as a family, towards your home.

Times Up

“Better get going I have a gym session at four thirty”. Those were the first words that left Harry’s mouth after he’d destroyed you. You hum a little snuggled into your bedsheets still thinking about every single way Harry just touched you.

This was an all to regular interaction between you and Harry. It was always at your place, you went to Harry’s once in a blue moon. You had a routine, you left the door unlocked for Harry, he automatically made his way to your bedroom where nine times out of ten you were waiting for him.

The routine started, you stayed tucked into bed while Harry pulled on his boxers, shuffling around your bedroom to find the other pieces of his clothing that you had discarded.

“I’ll text you?” Harry asks pulling on his socks. You nod “sounds great” you smile softly sitting up a little. “I’ll lock the door on my way out” Harry smiles grabbing his phone from the bedside table and his bag from the floor. You smirk to yourself “thank you”.

You listen to Harry shuffle through your apartment before the door clicked shut. You stretch and groan before pulling yourself from your bed grabbing your panties and t-shirt heading for the bathroom. You tidy yourself up before heading to the kitchen grabbing a glass of water, you snuggle up onto the couch grabbing your phone.

‘Thanks for coming over, you owe me a bunch of bananas, don’t think I didn’t notice’

‘Thought they were for show ;) was good to see you, let me know if you need cash for plan B’

‘Don’t think my IUD will stop working overnight 🙄’

‘Ooft, I can hear the PMS from here’

‘Whatever, have fun at the gym’

This was often how your texts with Harry went. Giving witty remarks and taking the piss out of one another, the bananas on the other hand were the exception this week, Harry didn’t generally take things from your apartment without asking. Maybe he was getting too comfortable.

*****

Saturday had made itself known with the 4:30am alarm you forgot to turn off. You groan trying to find your phone to turn it off. Eventually lifting your head from your pillow to glance at your phone you realise it’s in fact not your alarm but Harry calling you.

Huffing you pull your phone from the charger “do you have any idea what time it is” you’re met with a slurred chuckle “y’have work in an hour” rolling onto your back “I in fact do not Harold….what do you need?” You sigh. “Can y’come get me? I had too much to drink and can’t seem to get an Uber”.

You throw your sheets off your bare legs, you probably owed Harry at least a lift home “text me where you are I’m on my way” you say before hanging up quickly moving to grab some sweat pants.

Normally Harry would be right, you would be getting up and organised for work, that’s how you met Harry. You used to work the afternoon shift at the gym and Harry was a regular who always seemed to have time to chat. You’d since moved on from the gym but still worked the Saturday open.

Today was the exception to that you had the weekend off for a friends bridal shower, you couldn’t have been more excited for the sleep in, of course until Harry rudely interrupted.

Slipping your shoes on your phone buzzed with Harry’s text as to how whereabouts. You grab your keys before heading out the door.

****

You pull up out the front of what Harry reported to be his favourite pub. Out the front sitting in the gutter you spotted a still quite intoxicated Harry. You park just a short distance from where Harry was sitting before getting out of the car “Hey, y’ok down there?” You ask pushing your hands into your pockets.

Harry simply smirked up at you “Hi you” Harry chuckles rolling onto his front slowly pushing himself up “need a hand there?” You ask simply watching trying to hold your laugh in. “I got this” he says standing up shuffling over to your car “alright let’s get you home”.

You make sure Harry’s legs are tucked in and his seat belt is on before climbing back into your car. You pull away and slowly make your way to Harry’s. Halfway there you glance over to see Harry’s head against the window and him snoring lightly.

You sigh a little but couldn’t help but smile you decide to turn around and head back to your apartment not wanting to leave Harry on his own to sleep the drunkenness off.

You were almost back at your apartment when Harry woke up with a snort and a yawn “where are we?” He asks slouching down into his seat “almost at my place, y’ feeling ok?” You ask softly glancing at Harry once more “y’taking care o’me” Harry slurs answering your earlier question assuming he felt fine because he was still drunk.

You park in the garage before heading round to Harry’s side of the car to help him out “c’mon let’s get you to bed”. Harry shuffles himself out of the car and wraps an arm around your shoulder “wait, your not Cassidy” Harry grumbles breathing in your face causing you to almost dry heave the on the scent that left him.

“What?” You ask dragging him up to your apartment. “I was with a girl, I was supposed to go home with her, how did I get here?” Harry asks clearly beginning to sober up a little. “You called me you peanut, we just need to get you to bed Harry, it’s late for you and very fucking early for me”.

****

After tucking Harry into your bed you decided to get up and going for the day knowing you would feel worse if you went back to bed, particularly if it was next to Harry. You got changed and head down to the gym anyway, not before leaving Harry a note.

‘Thanks for ruining my sleep in, gone to the gym x’

You spent just under two hours working out. By the time you were done you were covered in sweat and your legs were shaking. This was definitely your sign to head home, you hadn’t heard from Harry since you got him settled leading you to believe he was fine.

You arrived back at your apartment and checked on Harry, who was still passed out, before heading towards the shower. You freshen up before throwing on some comfy clothes heading to check on Harry once more.

He was peaceful, his lips slightly parted his inhalation illiciting a little snore. You giggle a little leaning over pecking his cheek before leaving him to sleep. You make yourself something to eat before settling on the couch.

****

Several hours and a nap later you were staring into your walk in robe trying to find something to wear to the bridal shower. Standing in your underwear staring at your dresses you sigh to yourself, if you were being honest parties were not your favourite thing, in a way you were glad that this was a mid afternoon party leaving you plenty of time to be in bed early.

“Just wear what you’ve got on it looks great” Harry pipes up in his groggy state.

You giggle “you’d love that wouldn’t you” you comment before grabbing a couple of options.

“I might” Harry says smirking in your direction.

“How’s your head?” You ask softly placing two dresses on the bed before going back for a couple more.

“It’s fine thank you, I don’t really remember much though” Harry responds

“Mmm, you were going on about some girl named Cassidy” you comment glancing at Harry before placing another dress on the bed.

Harry hums “I honestly don’t remember a Cassidy….where are you off to?” He asks.

“I have a bridal shower…help me pick?” You ask shyly.

Harry smiles a little before pulling his bottom lip between his teeth “sure”. You held up a few options before Harry stood up walking towards you taking a multicoloured pink short sleeve mini in his hands.

“This one…” he says trailing off a little before stepping closer to you “might need a coat, it’s supposed to be cold out” he adds before placing the dress back down placing his hands on your waist.

“Thank you…for looking out f’me” he says softly causing you to giggle a little “anytime Harry” you rest your hands on his chest “I need to get ready, you are more than welcome to stay though” you hated admitting it but you enjoyed having Harry around.

He smirks “I might be into that…” Harry goes to lean down to connect his lips to yours when you turn away, “shower and teeth, before you try any of that” you giggle kissing his cheek “Y’know where the spare towels and toothbrush’s are” you add before walking away.

****

You pull your freshly curled hair into a pony before heading back to the walk in to grab the dress. As you were trying to zip it up Harry conveniently walked out of the bathroom spotting you chuckling, his towel wrapped loosely around his waist “may I?” He asks.

You glance at him before sighing and nodding “please” Harry places one hand on your waist, the other holds the zipper slowly pulling it up. When he reaches the top he clasps the dress placing a kiss to the back of your neck before he glances in the mirror “perfect” he whispers just loud enough that you heard.

You smile a little turning to look up at Harry “thank you….that thing you wanted to do before, I might be into it now your all clean” you grin causing Harry to chuckle “y’tits look great in that” Harry comments.

You groan and roll your eyes “I should go otherwise I’ll be late” you push away from Harry’s body grabbing your shoes and coat.

As much as it pained Harry to shoot you down he had to break the tension in the situation, it was far to intimate for his liking and this was just friends fucking. Nothing more.

“Stay as long as you want…” you begin, heading to your dresser spritzing your perfume “just make sure you lock the door if you leave” you glare as Harry before turning on your heel walking away grabbing you coat on the way past your bed.

It wasn’t very often that you made you distaste with Harry known but what felt like a genuine moment to you clearly was something very different to Harry.

The entire party your mood was off, you didn’t chime in as much as you normally would and in all honesty you just wanted to be home. The whole morning had just put you in a bad mood.

*****

Arriving home you open the door and we’re met with the scent of some kind of pasta dish and to Harry humming in the kitchen “Hi…” you say softly pulling your coat off. Harry looks up in your direction “Hey, how was it?” He asks moving to chop some fresh basil.

You shrug a little “it was ok, what have you been up to?” You ask kicking your shoes off moving toward the kitchen. Harry opens his mouth to speak before sighing a little “I owe you an apology, I was s’rude to you earlier and for that m’really sorry” Harry says softly moving toward you. “Thank you” you whisper taking a step to Harry.

“You didn’t have to make me dinner” you add as Harry pulls you to his chest smirking “you picked me up at god knows what time this morning, I owe you dinner at the very least” he mumbles against your forehead before pecking your temple.

Who knew something so small could illicit such a response from your body, your toes curled a little, your heart rate sped up and goosebumps erupted on your skin.

You hun a little “I should go and change” you say pushing away from Harry a little.

Harry shakes his head. “No, keep it on, you look beautiful” he whispers softly rubbing your hips with his thumbs. You couldn’t help but smile a little “ok” you nod leaning ip to kiss Harry’s cheek.

****

Sitting down to dinner an awkward silence fell between you and Harry that you eventually broke. “So, how was last night, or what you can remember of it?” You ask Harry glances up at you “Y’know you can just ask what you want to ask” Harry adds with a bit of a tone causing to to swallow hard before shaking your head a little.

“Y’know neither of us like conflict, I’m sorry” you whisper softly before going back to your dinner.

You hear Harry huff “c’mon Y/n our communications shit but I wouldn’t sleep with someone else and not tell you, that’s not fair on you” Harry says clearly getting upset.

You knew he wasn’t talking about your feelings, he was talking about the lack of protection you used when you slept with Harry, other than your IUD, Harry was referring to your need to be tested if he were sleeping with someone else.

“I think you should go” you glare at Harry as the words left your mouth, he raises his brows before shrugging a little “you want me to go because I’m not sleeping with other girls?” Harry asks rhetorically.

You take in a shaky breath trying to keep yourself together. “Harry you know why, you knew how I felt about you…” he sighs dropping his cutlery down.

“Y’knew when we started sleeping together it didn’t mean we were dating, you knew that’s not what I wanted” Harry sighs standing up, you follow suit. “Look at what we’re doing Harry! We’re sitting here having dinner together after you’ve been here all day! I can barely even talk to other guys because I feel like I’m doing wrong by you!” You yell stepping back from the table.

Harry glares at you taking a deep breath in before exhaling sharply. You shrug your shoulders looking at him “I don’t understand what you want from me” you exclaim leaning against the back of the couch.

Harry sighs softly seeing your expression change from one of anger to one of anxiety. As much as he wanted to just leave the awkward situation he knew he couldn’t leave you feeling like this. This was strictly a casual relationship, no strings attached, but that didn’t mean he didn’t care for you at all.

“C’mere” Harry says softly slowly stepping towards you with his hands outstretched he rubs up your arms pulling you into his chest letting your overwhelming amount of emotion spill over.

After you had calm down a little Harry guided you to the couch taking your hands in his “Y’know it’s the idea of a relationship that freaks me out, not you. I honestly don’t remember what I did or who I spoke to last night but I know if I called you nothing happ….” Harry paused for a moment realising that in his time of need, he called you.

He was developing feelings without even noticing, why else would he have been here all day and made you dinner while you weren’t home. All Harry wanted was you, he could have gone home with anyone but he called you and you were right there when he needed you.

“Harry…” you say softly, he had become pale and he was holding your hand tighter than before. He looks up at you “I-uh…sorry” he says softly. “Um…I should go, give us both some space” he adds before standing.

“Harry wait” you say as he begins to walk off, he stops and turns to look at you “are we ok?” You ask quietly. Harry breaks out into a small smile “yeah, we’re ok” he says coming back to you kissing your forehead, “I’ll call you” you nod a little “ok”.

****

Typical Harry. He didn’t call. You were too proud to call him. You didn’t want to give him the benefit of the fact that you were practically wrapped around his finger.

Another two days had passed before Harry reached out with a simple text.

‘Hey you, sorry I haven’t called, work has been a little crazy. Dinner tomorrow night at my place?’

You stared at Harry’s message for a while. He wanted you to come over, to his place, that never happened.

You type out a few responses before finally choosing the right one.

‘Hi, I get it, this week has been wild for me too, I’d love to, let me know what time and if I can bring anything’

Before long Harry’s response was lighting your phone up.

‘Just yourself and a bottle of wine if you like, just pop over when you finish work, I’ll be home’

****

Heading up to Harry’s house after work mid week wasn’t an unusual thing, the unusual thing was that you were going for dinner not just a mid week fuck.

You dodged a few pieces of plaster and building supplies. Harry’s house was older but slowly and steadily he was renovating. Last time you were here the kitchen had just been finished. By the look of the outside of his home the bathroom was half completed.

You knock softly on the door, before letting yourself in, something you and Harry did no questions asked. You could hear Harry in the kitchen, Florence + the machine playing in the background.

“Hey H” you smile a little putting your bag down placing the bottle of wine on the kitchen counter. He turn to you as you walk into the kitchen and smiles “Hi…how are you?”

You nod and smile a little “I’m good, you?” He grins and nods “m’great….I made us a vegan stir fry, I hope that’s ok?” Harry asks softly. You giggle a little and nod “sounds perfect, thank you so much Harry” he nods.

“M’sorry I didn’t call, I tried to text a few times, then just couldn’t work out what to say, I figured maybe it would be better to just have dinner and talk to you” he says pulling out two wine glasses “I think that’s a great idea”

“How’s work been?” Harry asks “been at the gym much?” You shrug a little “I’ve been there more as a member than staff the last few weeks” Harry chuckles “I don’t know why you still work there, you have a great full time job your working yourself too hard”

You give Harry a glare before taking the glass of wine he just poured for you “Y’know what I’m like if I try to relax, I can’t do it” you wanted to defend yourself but Harry was also right.

He starts taking things to the dining table “I know, but it also sometimes means that we don’t see each other for months at a time…” he adds before holding his hand out to you to move from the kitchen island to the table.

“That your way of telling me that you miss me?” You ask with a smirk taking Harry’s hand walking to the dining table. “Thank you for cooking” you add before sitting down.

Harry chuckles “it might be…”

****

Dinner was relatively quiet you and Harry chatted a little in between before settling on the couch “so…wanna come and see the renovations?” Harry starts, you turn in your spot to face him before humming softly and nodding.

He holds a hand out to which you gladly take before he leads you to the downstairs bathroom “this one’s still a little rough I wanted to get the ensuite done first” he says before opening the door.

You walk into a bare bones bathroom the concrete of the slab exposed on the floor, the walls also bare “wow you weren’t kidding, what’s your plan with it though?” You ask looking around “well I’ve got everything picked out but I’m still not convinced on the layout” Harry starts pointing in different directions where he wants things to go.

You walk around a little as Harry finishes explaining before looking at him he huffs a little “you’re not convinced either?” He asks you giggle a little “didn’t think I was that obvious” you start before pulling him towards you his hands falling to your waist as you turn your back to him.

You begin telling Harry what you would do with the space to make it all a little more streamline but still functional, by the time you were done Harry was rubbing your waist a little and leaning his head on your shoulder “should have let you take charge of the entire remodel” he mumbled softly “your ideas are so good” he adds before placing a tiny peck to your neck.

“Show you upstairs?” He asks pulling away a little taking your hand. You gladly follow Harry to his bedroom and the attached ensuite he opens the door and your met with a space that was now double the size “oh my goodness Harry this is gorgeous” you say letting his hand go walking into the bathroom to see a gigantic shower, double vanity and a bath it had all been decorated to perfection, something you knew Harry hadn’t done alone.

“Gemma decorated for you didn’t she?” You ask looking over at Harry who was simply staring at you smiling to himself “she may have yes, but in my defence I picked the plant” you giggle a little making your way back to Harry who sighs softly.

“What’s on your mind H?” You ask. He looks over to you and shrugs a little “I’ve kind of been a dick to you this last week” Harry starts. You nod a little “M’sorry, I really am. Y’went out of y’way to help me, y’always do and I was pretty rude” he continues.

You step a little closer to Harry “yeah, you kinda have been a dick….” You sigh a little “but I guess we’re not dating so it’s ok” you shrug a little.

“But that shouldn’t mean I’m allowed to be an asshole” Harry responds before you shake your head.

“Y’know we’ll end up fighting if we keep talking about it” you comment crossing your arms over your chest.

Harry chuckles and smirks a little “I know….we always come back to each other though” he adds causing your expression to soften.

“We do don’t we” you smile. Harry holds a hand out to you which you gladly take before he pulls you toward him. His hands fall to your waist his eyes scanning your face. “C’mere” he smirks running his hands up your side til he was cupping your cheeks.

You lean into Harry’s touch placing your hands on his chest as he leans back against the door frame a little dipping his nose under your own to close the gap between your lips.

The kiss got heated quickly, Harry’s tongue dancing against your own as he leant down a little to hoist your legs up around his waist. You hum against his lips your hands moving to Harry’s hair tugging a little as he breaks off from your lips to kiss and nip down your neck.

It wasn’t long before you were in Harry’s bed. The soft fabric of his sheets caressing your shoulders and back. Harry stopped abruptly pulling away simply looking down at you smirking. “What?” You ask smiling a little at how cute and soft Harry looked right now.

He shakes his head “nothing…nothing at all” he chuckles a little. You swat at his bicep causing him to fall stopping himself a mere inch from your face. “Don’t fuck with me Harry!” You giggle wrapping your arms around him. “Oh don’t you worry, that’s exactly what I plan on doing” he winks before placing his lips against yours.

You giggle against his lips “you’re an idiot” you mumble before bucking your hips towards Harry’s causing him to groan, you begin to push Harry’s shirt up his torso, kisses still messy. Harry only breaks away for a second to pull his shirt over his head quickly moving to unbutton your blouse throwing it to one side.

“Y’so good to me Y’know that” Harry whispers against you pecking your lips sitting back a little to admire you. He shuffles down your body to your hips kissing your slightly protruding hip bone, stripping you down to your underwear before kissing up your torso between the column of your breasts, up your neck to your lips.

You cup Harry’s cheeks between your hands before he can lean in to kiss you again. “Y’too sweet to me sometimes H” Harry let’s put a breathy chuckle. “Y’deserve it pet” he smiles before you allow him to reconnect his lips with your own. You push Harry’s pants off his hips with your spare hand before Harry’s moving back down your body.

Harry hooks his thumbs in your underwear pulling them off tossing them away. He goes to push your knees apart when you begin shaking your head grabbing Harry’s bicep to redirect him to your lip. You move to push Harry a little so he was on his back. You drop your hips slowly grinding against him your naked core fitting perfectly against his.

He groans on your lips hands reaching down to grab at your ass pulling you closer to him. “What a’ya doing?” Harry whispers hands moving to cup your cheeks. “I just want you H” you respond hands resting on his chest. He breaks out into a small smile kissing you softly “m’all yours” Harry smirks against you.

You blush before Harry bucks his hips towards you cause you to gasp hands accidentally scratching into Harry’s chest “shit…I’m sorry Harry” you panic looking at the marks you had left. He shakes his head a little quickly turning you both so he was in control “it’s ok baby” Harry whispers connecting his lips to yours.

This all of a sudden felt different, Harry was grinding into you taking his time, building tension rather than his usual quick in and out routine.

“Ready?” He whispers panting a little you nod pulling Harry to you kissing him softly “so ready” you mumble reaching down to give Harry a few lazy pumps you feel him thrust up into your hand groaning softly, you hum smirking a little.

You position Harry at your entrance. He looks down at your smiling softly before his expression changes as he pushed the first few inches of himself inside of you. You gasp your back arching. No matter how much you and Harry slept together you never got used to his size.

Harry gives you a moment connecting his lips back to yours humming against you “feel so good” he whimpers slowly pushing himself in further until he had bottomed out.

Harry pauses for a moment simply trying to keep himself composed. When he’s satisfied that he won’t reach his peak as soon as he was inside of you, he places some soft pecks to your shoulder before coming back to your lips. He begins to thrust slowly his pubic bone stimulating your clit. Groaning softly you nibble at Harry’s shoulder trying to hold in a moan.

You nibble up Harry’s neck to his already waiting lips, sucking your bottom lip in you feel Harry’s tongue graze yours. As things got messier you both got louder.

Before long Harry had scooped you up into his arms laying himself back onto the sheets “y’look perfect like this” he mumbles against you kissing down your chest taking your right breast into his mouth humming against it sending vibrations down your chest to your core.

“Jesus H, what are you doing to me” you pant repositioning your legs resting your forehead to his as you begin to move against him.

It was long before Harry was gripping your ass like his life depended on it “Harry I’m going to cum!” You cry out your hands wrapped around his shoulders his tongue, lips and teeth all over you like a wildfire.

Within seconds you were shuddering against Harry, eyes scrunched shut as your overwhelming climax washed over you. Your entire body was spasming against Harry as he held you close your orgasm leading to Harry’s own. The grip Harry had on your ass only getting tighter, his face not leaving your neck.

You both eventually stop moving and squirming and you came down from your highs, the only noise in the room the panting of the pair. Harry slowly unraveled himself helping you lay next to him pulling his duvet up not wanting you to get a chill.

You whimper a little still being overly sensitive. Harry leans over pecking your forehead “y’ok?” Harry whispers. You hum and nod a little.

Harry slowly pries himself out of you to clean you both up in your mind fucked state. He slips out of his bed to the bathroom cleaning himself up before bringing back a warm washcloth.

Harry kisses the side of your head, your brain still fuzzy before he begins speaking “let me clean y’up pet?” He asks. You slowly roll onto your back allowing Harry to help you. “Your looking after me” you mumble, your hands making their way to his soft curls.

You hear Harry chuckle “of course” he whispers kissing your hip before tossing the wash cloth to the laundry hamper. He tucks himself back in under the covers getting comfortable as you begin to get some clarity to the situation.

You roll onto your side to face Harry. “Want me to go?” You ask softly. Harry’s brow instantly creases, one of his arms falling to your waist “no, not at all” he says pulling you closer.

You stiffen in Harry’s grip unsure of this territory where he wants you around. A few minutes pass before Harry speaks up “m’sorry” he begins, “you have nothing to be sorry for H” you interject.

His brow creases again “Y’know that’s not true…I’m an idiot and you know it. What are you doing tomorrow?” Harry says softly. You shrug a little as Harry’s hand dances up and down your back “could we maybe…go on a date?” Harry asks quietly.

It was the first time in the entire time you had known Harry that you had seen him anxious and unsure of himself. His hand had stopped in the middle of your back and you could feel his thumb picking at the skin of his other fingers and he was chewing at his bottom lip nervously.

You hold eye contact with Harry for a moment before breaking out in giggles causing Harry to look at you dumbfounded. “I’m not laughing at you I promise…I just didn’t think that would be something you would want, you’ve always been pretty clear that we wouldn’t date” you explain not wanting for offend Harry in any way.

“I guess I just never saw myself in a relationship…you and I we’ve been so up and down because of me…because I was too scared to admit that I like you, but I like you so fuckin’ much”

You look at Harry not being able to contain your smile. You lean forward resting your forehead to his Harry’s grip tightening on your waist. “You are an idiot…sometimes…but I would love to go on a date with you H”.

You could see Harry’s wide grin appear and hear the puff of air that he seemed to be holding in for a while. He smooshes his nose against yours trying to hide his smile from you before he connects his lips to yours wrapping his arms around you pulling you as close as humanly possible.

You lay there for a while Harry moving in his bed so that you were snuggled into his chest while he looks at the roof. “H…” you whisper glancing up at him. He hums kissing your head in response “what changed your mind?” You ask, Harry chuckles softly sending vibrations through your chest. A feeling and a sound that you loved with your entire being.

“You….everything about you, spending last Saturday in your apartment and with you I guess I realised that’s what I wanted all along. But then I guess I got scared, I didn’t know what to say or how to tell you, I wasn’t sure if you wanted our dynamic to change” Harry explains.

You lean over kissing him softly “if this is what I get all the time, then I never want to go back to how it was” you smile. “It won’t, I can promise you that with absolute certainty” Harry winks kissing your cheek.

Professor

Prof. Harry x Fem reader

Smut

So much fluff!

University.

One of the scariest places you’ve ever stepped foot into. The same one your willingly going back to after four years.

You had just started your masters degree when you found out you were pregnant. It was going to be way to labour intensive to see it through with a baby, so you did exactly what you didn’t want to and dropped out.

Seven months after you dropped out you gave birth to the most precious little boy and called him Noah. Now little three year old Noah was heading off to day care for the first time while his Mum was heading back to start her Masters all over again.

Dropping Noah off you couldn’t decide if you should feel like a bad Mum going back to University or proud of yourself for being able to do both. You make sure Noah is occupied with some colouring before heading off to your first class. This process occurred for the first few weeks and began working really well for you and Noah. He was learning so much at day care and you were feeling amazing about your Masters.

There was still one thing holding you back in one of your classes. You had had some run ins with one of your professors who you knew from before you had Noah and who you had gone to University with as undergraduates. Harry. You were good friends, for a while, but things broke down when Noah’s Dad fell into the picture. Harry hated him, always said he was wrong for you and up to no good. Which in a way he was right.

******

You were sitting in Harry’s class one day when your phone began to buzz with the daycares number. You quickly sneak out of Harry’s lecture and answer. Your day was being cut short. Poor Noah was vomiting with a temperature, meaning you had no choice but to go and pick him up. You sneak back into class packing your things up quietly before sneaking back out glancing down to the front of the room on the way out to notice Harry already staring at you a wave of confusion covering his face.

You pick Noah up and head straight home. Once arriving at home you get some medicine ready for Noah who you had left laying on the couch. “Baby mummy has some medicine to help you feel better” you say softly kneeling in front of him “mummy feel yucky” he whimpers. You lean over kissing his head softly “I know baby, take this for mummy it will help I promise”. You help him pop the little syringe of liquid in his mouth before passing him his little water bottle to wash it down “mummy’s brave boy” you smile brushing his growing hair from his face “have a little lay down monkey, mummy’s going to sit with you ok?” You ask softly. He just nods pulling his blanket and teddy up closer to his chest.

After around half an hour Noah had fallen asleep. You decide to take this opportunity to try and catch up on the things you missed in class today which meant emailing your professor for the notes. You open your laptop going to your emails to see a couple of unread ones including one from Harry from that afternoon.

To your surprise he had taken the time from his day to email you the notes from class today with a message attached.

‘Hi Y/N,

I noticed you slipped out of class today, I just wanted to check in and ensure everything is ok?

No need to go into detail, but please don’t hesitate to reach out if you need anything.

Please find attached the rest of the notes from the lecture today, feel free to contact me with questions or queries,

Kind regards,

Prof. H Styles.’

You quickly glance through the notes before looking at the time seeing it was still only early, Harry would still be at work, you figured it was best to offer some sort of explanation.

‘Hi Professor,

Thank you for reaching out and for the notes they have been very helpful.

I’m sorry I had to sneak out, unfortunately my son fell sick and I had to bring him home,

I’m hoping to be back in class tomorrow.

Thanks again,

Y/N Y/L/N.’

You never got a reply from Harry after that. Not that you expected one. You got through the rest of your day hanging out on the couch with Noah in between his vomits and temperatures, you managed to get the lecture notes revised and yourself up to date with your classes, as well as Noah fed and tucked into bed a little earlier than normal to get the extra rest he needed.

****

The next morning Noah had stopped vomiting but was still having temperatures on and off. You had called your Mum the night before to see if she could look after Noah so you could to go to your classes. She was more than accomodating coming over to your place extra early and assuring you that there was no need to rush home that he would be ok with his Grandma for a day.

You head off to your classes for the day and try to get as much done as you can to be able to give Noah your undivided attention once you arrived home. Your last class for the day was with Harry. Things went well. You had a great grasp on what was going on in his class at the moment. Once the class was over everyone started to file out, you were packing your bag getting ready to go yourself when Harry called you out “Y/N?” you turn your head in his direction “is everything ok?” He asks “I just wanted to check in” he explains.

You continue to pack your things as Harry makes his way toward you. “Yeah everything’s fine, Noah’s feeling a little better” you smile softly glancing at him. “Ok, well let me know if you need anything” he nods toward you before walking back down to the front of the classroom.

“Professor” you say softly to catch Harry’s attention as he was walking away. He looks up glaring a little “Y/N we’ve known each other for a long time, you don’t have to call me that” he snaps a little. Nodding, you glance at your feet “sorry” you whisper “I uh, just wanted to say thank you, for checking in” you look up a little at his now softened expression before walking away.

******

A few weeks had passed since Noah had been sick, he had made a full recovery and was as energetic as ever. You had planned with Noah’s dad for Noah to spend a few days with him over the weekend. You were planning on dropping Noah off at your Mums for his Dad, Ryan to come and pick him up. You’d had a rough separation from Ryan, he was incredibly possessive and manipulative, he caused you so much stress during your pregnancy that Noah was almost 10 weeks premature.

You dropped Noah off on Thursday morning to your Mums for Ryan to pick him up that afternoon after he finished work. You were heading towards your first deadline for an assignment in Harry’s class meaning it was good timing to be able to have the extra time to study. You were in the library studying a little after five PM when your phone began to ring, Ryan’s contact shining on your screen. You sigh a little before standing up to make your way outside to take the call.

“Hello” you chine putting on your best ‘nice voice’ on.

“Hey, are you busy?” Ryan asks not bothering to ask how you were or if it was a good time to talk.

“I’m studying, so a little, why?” You ask not liking where the conversation was going.

“I have bad news” he sighs dramatically causing you to roll your eyes “I can’t have Noah this weekend, something came up I have to cancel sorry”. You audibly groan pinching the bridge of your nose.

“Are you shitting me right now? You’ve been asking for this for months and when I say yes you cancel, what do I tell Noah?” You snap becoming frustrated at how unreliable this man was.

“I don’t know, tell him I’m sick or something it’s not my problem” he grumbles.

“He’s your son Ryan! You can’t just pop in and out as you please, you either need to be part of his life or give it up” you yell causing people to look your direction.

“Whatever, if your going to be a bitch then I’m not talking to you” he says bluntly.

“Ryan I’m done with this crap. Your not going to see Noah anymore, you can’t just jump in and out of his life it’s not fair on him” you explain.

Before you knew it the line went dead, indicating Ryan had hung up. You groan loudly gripping your phone tightly you look around to see a number of people looking between you and what they were doing, including Harry who was now making his way towards you.

You sigh a little beginning to pack up your belongings trying to slip away from talking to Harry. To your dismay Harry’s long strides caught up to you “Y/N” Harry says softly reaching the desk you were working from. “Why don’t you come to my office?” He asks reluctantly. You sigh shaking your head “no it’s ok I should get home and finish this”.

Harry didn’t move away from you, instead coming to sit next to you “Y/N, please?” Harry asks softly. You look up at him seeing his soft expression “at least just talk to me a little, I heard you…on the phone, is everything ok?” He asks you sigh sitting back into the chair allowing Harry to lean against the desk.

“Do you need an extension for this paper? I’m more than happy to try and make things a little more flexible for you?” Harry asks, clearly sympathising with you. You quickly shake your head “no no no, it’s Ryan he’s being an idiot, nothing to do with class work, just him being him” you sigh.

“Oh you’re still together, I understand” Harry says softly seeming disappointed. You begin shaking your head laughing “no we are not…. We started having problems while I was pregnant with Noah, he left the day I went into labour I called him while he was at work to tell him I needed to go to the hospital and he just never showed. Noah and I came home three weeks later and all of his stuff was gone. It took almost a year for him to decide he deserved to be a part of Noah’s life and I honestly hate it. He cancels last minute almost every visit and he pushes me for visits. I’m just exhausted by it Harry….” You sigh placing your chin in your hands “I’m sorry I offloaded all that onto you” you say shaking your head pushing your hair from your face.

Harry just stares at you for a minute “I’m glad” he says softly “I’m glad your not with him, I know I used to give you a hard time about it but you really do deserve better. I’m sorry I wasn’t a better friend back then” Harry adds looking at his hands.

You shake your head “don’t be silly, you were a great friend, I was naive and just happened to end up pregnant” you start before pausing for a moment “But I wouldn’t change Noah for the world he’s the sweetest kid and even though he doesn’t understand why I’m gone a lot at the moment he hasn’t complained once”

Harry simply smiles in your direction “he sounds like his Mum” he chuckles a little. You smile glancing at Harry. “Would you like to come to my office? The library will be closing soon, I’ll be here for a little while yet, I can make us some tea?” Harry offers.

You think on his offer for a moment before nodding “that sounds great, thank you” you smile softly beginning to gather your things.

Walking to Harry’s office the campus had become relatively empty in the last half hour. Footpaths that we’re lined with groups of students were now empty and several buildings were now locked for the night.

You make it to Harry’s office he unlocks the door and lets you in before him “make yourself comfortable I’ll just be marking some papers” he smiles. You nod a little and find a seat in his surprisingly large office, getting to work.

*****

The pair work in silence for a couple of hours before you notice the time “crap” you mumble quickly trying to pack your things up again “everything ok?” Harry asks, you nod “yeah, just need to go and pick Noah up, his bedtime is 8, I didn’t realise it was already 7:30.” You sigh.

Harry stands to come and help you collecting some papers into a pile for you “You should have this, I’ll be giving them out in class tomorrow but have yours now” he says softly “but you didn’t get it from me” he smirks placing one of your freshly marked assessments under a pile of your papers “grading is on the last page, you’re doing great Y/N” Harry adds causing you to smile “thank you Harry and thank you for this, it was really helpful” you smile softly swinging your bag onto your shoulder “see you tomorrow” you say softly before slipping out of the room.

Your drive to pick Noah up was brief, you called your Mum to let her know what you were on your way, not that she was worried. She was however pissed that Noah’s father hadn’t arrived to collect him, arguably angrier than you were.

You arrive and let yourself in seeing Noah almost asleep on the couch, he sees you and smiles widely, sliding off the couch “Mummy!” He yells running towards you “Hi baby!” You smile kneeling down as he runs into your arms, you hug him tightly kissing his head “Did you have a good day with Grandma?” You ask picking him up carrying him to the kitchen where your Mum was cleaning up “Grandma let me have chicken nuggies for dinner Mummy!” he tells excitedly you giggle rubbing his back “you’re very spoilt buddy” your Mum looks towards you “he is very spoilt” she smiles.

“Thank you for looking after him Mum” you smile “I’m sorry” you pout a little. Noah snuggles into your chest wrapping his arms around you. “How was your day?” Your mum asks finishing up some dishes “it was ok, I spent the afternoon studying” you say softly rocking Noah a little “anything from….him?” Your mum asks you just shake your head.

“He called me to tell me, I lost it. I don’t want him to see us anymore” you sigh a little not going into detail in front of Noah. “I’m sorry sweetheart” your Mum says moving to hug your side to not disturb Noah. “Should get him home” she says softly you nod “I’ll grab his bag” you say before walking to the living room picking up Noah’s backpack you had out together for the weekend “thank you for looking after him mum I appreciate it so much” you smile, giving her a hug.

You make it out to the car and buckle a now sleeping Noah into his car seat. Heading home you manage to get Noah into his pyjamas and tucked into bed without waking him too much. You smile a little watching Noah for a while before heading off to your own room. You grab your papers from your bag wanting to look over your paper from Harry.

There we’re still some areas you wanted to improve on. You make it to the final page and see your mark, sliding in with a high distinction, better than you thought you were going to do. You smile a little proud of how you were going so far and being incredibly grateful for the support you had.

Looking a little further down at Harry’s comments you were a little taken back. Instead of leaving a detailed comment on your paper and areas to improve he had simply written;

‘Beautiful work, I’ve missed reading your papers and I’m glad you came back, text me, hopefully you still have my number - H’

You look at the time seeing it was almost 9pm. You pace your room for a moment before dropping the paper on your dresser grabbing your phone instead. You pace the room again looking at Harry’s contact for a good few minutes before finally opening a new text to him.

‘Thanks for the paper, and thank you for letting me study in your office today. I really appreciate all your help’

You send the message setting your phone down on the charger and getting yourself ready for bed knowing that Noah would probably be up early.

*****

You managed to wake up before Noah and drag yourself out of bed. You head out to the kitchen and go to put on some soft music when you notice that Harry had replied to your text last night at around midnight.

‘You’re very welcome, I’m sorry things have been rough for you, please let me know if I can do anything’

You giggle to yourself a little at how sweet Harry was being while also being professional.

You start putting breakfast together for you and Noah before heading upstairs to wake him. You sneak into his room and sit on the edge of his bed brushing through his hair a little. You smile noticing the little bit of curl it was starting to get you kiss his head softly “Noah” you whisper softly causing him to stir “it’s time to wake up sweet boy” he stirs more rolling over to face you “Mummy” he whimpers rubbing his eyes. “Hey buddy” you smile Noah reaches up to you wth his smalls hands.

You pick him up carrying him to the kitchen as he wakes up. “Did you sleep well bud?” You ask. He nods into your neck causing you to giggle “are you excited for day care?” You ask. Noah kicks his feet out a little bit showing how excited he was “yes!” You smile putting him down to go and find his seat. “Are you hungry?” You ask. Noah runs to his seat sitting up ready for breakfast “yes please Mummy” he says. “Ok let’s get organised then” you smile getting breakfast.

*****

Heading into uni for the day to drop Noah at day care you were running early which meant you had time to let Noah walk his way into the campus and look around a little more than usual.

On your way in Noah sees the big grass quad and runs off across it. You smile watching him, very little worry in your mind due to the very little number of people around. Noah goes to make his way back to you when he accidentally steps out in front of none other than Harry.

He instantly stops in his tracks looking up at Harry, he takes a few small steps back as you begin to make your way over to him “Noah” you call out. Harry looks up seeing you and smiles. You finally make your way to them picking him up “Hey buddy, you ok?” You ask. He looks at you just nodding. “Noah this is one of Mummy’s teachers, his name is Harry” Noah looks at you then at Harry “like my teachers Mummy?” Noah asks. You shrug “a little” you smile.

“Good morning” Harry says softly “Hi Noah, it’s nice to meet you” Harry adds holding his hand out for Noah little one to shake which Noah gladly takes. “You say hello to Harry” you whisper to Noah he nods say hello to Harry before squirming to get out of your arms.

You let him go but he stays relatively close to you and Harry. “He looks so much like you, where do the curls come from though?” Harry asks. You shrug a little “I had curly hair as a kid, he’ll probably grow out of it, they look cute though” you smile watching as Noah runs on the grass “Hey um, I was thinking we should catch up properly if it seems ok?” Harry asks “we could go for coffee? Noah could come I don’t mind” he says softly “it’s entirely up to you” you smile a little

“I would actually love that Harry thank you” you say as Noah comes back to you holding your “would the University be ok with it? I mean technically I am one of your students” you were a little anxious about the idea but not against it at all.

Harry shrugs “I think it’s more of a coincidence that your my student than an inconvenience, we were friends as undergraduates, I’m just catching up with a friend” he says matter of factly causing you to consider his idea of things as well but still seeing things from the university’s perspective. Eventually you give in and nod “why don’t we get coffee over the weekend?” You ask, almost surprising yourself with your bold request.

Harry glances at his feet and smiles “I would love that” he says softly pushing his glasses back up his nose. You hadn’t seen him wear them in so long, but they still made him look as sweet as he did 4 years ago. “Great, I’ll text you?” You ask to which Harry nods “I better get Noah to day care” you smile before calling out to him. He comes running over grabbing your leg with his small hands “Mummy I found a butterfly!” He shouts causing you and Harry to laugh. You pick him up resting him on your hip “that’s so cool sweetie! Should we go to day care and tell them all about it?” You ask Noah nods before looking at Harry.

You smile a little just watching them look at one another for a while “Noah, would you like to come with Mummy for a hot chocolate with Harry on the weekend?” You ask him softly only loud enough that Harry could hear as well. Noah claps his hands “yes please Mummy! Can we go to the park too?” He asks his little eyes gleaming.

“I’m sure my puppy would love to meet you Noah” Harry smiles Noah’s head flys in Harry’s direction. “What your puppy’s name?” Noah asks “his name is Ned, he’s only very little” Harry explains his full attention on your son. “I didn’t know you had a puppy” you say softly. Harry looks at you and nods “only had him a few weeks, sweetest thing, he’s a Lab, only 10 weeks old” he smiles.

“He’s sounds adorable Harry, I look forward to seeing him.” You grins “me too” he chuckles “anyway I’ll let you go, don’t want to be late, I’ll see you in class?” He asks you nod before Harry begins to head off squeezing your arm and waving at Noah as he does so.

*****

Saturday morning you were woken by the sound and movement of Noah crawling into bed next to you you roll over towards him opening your eyes a little “y’ok sweetheart?” You ask softly helping him the rest of the way in “Mummy cuddle” he whimpers you smile a little and open your arms for him to fall into.

You hold him close rubbing Noah’s back for a while before he begins to squirm “you ready to get up bud?” You ask “I’m hungry please Mummy” you giggle a little “alright come on let’s get some breakfast.”

You get Noah organised and sat down for his breakfast “Are you excited to see Harry today Noah?” You ask, Noah begins clapping his hands causing you to giggle “Mummy do I get to see the puppy?!” He asks excitedly “I hope so baby” you smile.

You sit with Noah to have some breakfast and text Harry while Noah works through the strawberries you added to his plate.

‘Noah’s so excited to see you and Ned today’

You send before setting your phone down. You get Noah’s dressed his hair done and teeth brushed before getting yourself organised pulling on some light wash jeans and a floral sweater. You head back to the kitchen to grab your phone seeing Harry had texted back.

‘I’m really looking forward to it, what time suits you?’

You smile a little, you were a little uneasy about this weird feeling you were having toward Harry, but it’s harmless he’s just a friend. Right?

‘Noah’s dressed and ready, should we meet at the coffee shop near the University? There’s a park across the road?’

You take your phone into the bathroom while you put just a little bit of makeup on.

‘Sounds great, see you in about half an hour?’

You smile a little at Harry’s message and head to Noah’s room to pack him a bag before reply

‘Perfect! See you soon’

You get Noah buckled into the car and head towards the University Noah keeps himself occupied in the back seat singing along with the music you had playing.

You park and head towards the cafe holding Noah’s hand on one side and his little bag on the other. You look up and see Harry waiting for you in black skinny jeans and a white t shirt under his sweater. This was the Harry you knew like the back of your hand. Beside him was Ned trying to chew his leash as Harry tried to stop him.

“Hey” you smile as you get closer “Hi” Harry smiles “Hi Noah” Harry waves kneeling down to Noah “Noah this is Ned” Harry says softly as Ned moves to sniff Noah causing him to giggle. He licks Noah’s chin before Harry calls him back “Hi Harry! Hi Ned!” Noah yells excitedly.

Noah leans over to pet Ned, he brushes over Neds soft fur before smiling at Harry. “Do you want me to go and order?” You ask softly, Harry smiles “that’d be great” he says softly “Noah do you want to come with Mummy?” You ask, he shakes his head “I stay with Ned?” He asks causing you to smile “is that ok?” You ask Harry, he simply nods smiling widely “yeah of course”.

You quickly race in ordering for you and Harry, you get a little juice for Noah and a cookie knowing he would get hungry at the park. You head back out with both yours and Harry’s coffees and something to eat for you both.

“Thank you so much” Harry smiles as you pass his coffee “I got you something to eat as well, I remember the carrot cake here was your favourite” he sighs a little “thank you” he says “you ok?” You ask softly noticing the sigh and slight drop in Harry’s face “yeah, I um, guess I forgot how well you know me” he smiles a little.

You head across the road to the park, Noah holding Harry’s hand wanting to be close to Ned “that is so cute” you smile watching them both.

Noah’s little legs were trying their best to keep up with Ned, Harry tying to hold Ned back a little so Noah wouldn’t topple. You find a quiet spot on the grass where Harry was able to let Ned off his leash letting Noah play with him properly. “Noah make sure you’re gentle please” you say as he starts running with Ned.

“I forgot how good their carrot cake was” Harry smiles “thank you for this” he says glancing over at you “anytime” you smile a little “I’ve missed hanging out with you” Harry’s says under his breath “this is a long way from going to parties together and getting as drunk as we could, but I missed hanging out with you too” you say softly laying back on the grass as Noah comes back over sitting between you and Harry with Ned.

Eventually, Harry lays back and Noah lays on your chest Ned snuggling into Noah. “Mummy” Noah says softly climbing you a little “yeah babe” you say wrapping your arm around him to stop him from falling back. “Can we keep Ned?” He asks curiously, you pout a little “I’m sorry baby, Ned is Harry’s puppy, we can’t keep him” Noah begins to fuss and you could feel a tantrum coming.

Harry noticed the change in Noah behaviour and rolls onto his front to look at Noah “Noah” he says softly “c’mere”. Noah pushes off you and walks to Harry. He leans over to Noah’s ear and whispers into it. Noah then runs back towards you kissing your cheek sloppily causing you to laugh hugging him tightly “what was that for?” You ask him giggling “it was from Harry!” Noah exclaims.

You look up at Harry who was already looking up you smiling nervously. You simply smile at him as Noah settled between you both again “I think we should do this more often” you say softly. Harry’s smile turns into more of a beam, “I’d love that” he says softly moving a little closer to you and Noah.

After a little while of Noah and Ned playing in between you and Harry, they both fell asleep. You brush Noah’s hair from his face a little kissing his head a little “you’re a great Mum” Harry says softly. You blush softly and lay your head on your arm “I think I just got lucky, Noah is an amazing kid” you say softly.

Harry smiles softly pushing your hair from your face. “Does he ever ask questions, about Ryan?” Harry asks. You shake your head a little “Ryan hasn’t spent time with him for a while, Noah probably doesn’t even know who he is anymore, he’s never asked why his Mum and Dad don’t live together and I don’t know what I would tell him if he did ask.”

“Y’know I’m here if you need anything, if you ever need someone to look after Noah so you can study, or if you want a night out, or just some time for you, I’m happy to help” Harry smiles a little. You giggle moving closer Ned moving over a little to Harry. You lean over the top of Noah and Ned who had settled again and place a soft kiss to Harry’s cheek “thank you H”

******

Three weeks had passed since you’d been to the park with Harry. In that three weeks you had been texting on and off, chatting after class and even studying in his office while he did admin work.

Tonight was one of those nights. Noah was staying with your Mum for the night while you were proof reading a paper due for one of your other classes for what felt like the fourteenth time.

You sigh a little sitting back in your chair. Harry glances up at you “y’ok?” He asks softly peering over the top of his glasses. You nod saving your document ensuring to not lose your work “yeah, I think it’s finally finished” you smile a little. Harry grins “good, I’m glad, you’ve worked really hard on it” he says starting to pack up his things “thank you for letting me use your office H” you add beginning to pack your own things “my pleasure” he smiles.

“Hey what are you doing tomorrow night? Noah’s been asking when he’s going to see Harry and Ned again” you giggle a little. Harry grins pushing his hands into his pockets “umm nothing, did you have something in mind?” He asks, you nod “Pizza and movies? At my place like we used to, but with Noah and you can bring Ned” you ask a little shy. Harry begins to nod “I’ll bring snacks” he smiles “text me your address?” He asks. You nod “yeah of course”.

You get organised and head home, you submit your paper online before heading to bed. You only had a morning class tomorrow which meant you could pick Noah up at lunch time. You slept like a log and accidentally slept through your alarm. You get yourself up and out the door in a rush meaning you didn’t look your best and the closest thing you got to breakfast was an iced coffee. Your morning, considering it’s hectic start dragged a little.

Leaving class you texted Harry your address before swinging around to your Mums to pick Noah up. “Noah James Mummy’s here!” You call out walking into your mums place he comes running out from the living room towards you “Mummy I missed you!” He yells latching himself onto your legs. You giggle hoisting him up into your arms “I missed you too buddy, did you have fun with grandma?” You ask Noah nods hugging you “so much fun! Grandma got me a new truck!” He smiles “wow, I hope you said thank you” you say softly as Noah begins to nod “Mummy has some fun news” you say softly walking off towards your Mums living room to find her “We are going to have dinner and movies at our place, with Harry and Ned” you smile as Noah to squirms in your arms clapping his hands.

“Who’s Harry?” Your mum asks inquisitively, Noah pipes up “Mummy’s teacher!” He yells giggling. You smile a little kissing his cheek “we were undergraduates together and really good friends, and now he’s my professor for one of my classes this semester” your Mum simply nods giving you a little bit of side eye “alright Mum that’s enough” you smile shaking your head “we better get going, can you go and get your bag please babe” you say putting Noah down.

You head home and get organised for the night giving the house a quick clean and lighting a few candles in the living room. You had given Noah a bath before getting him settled downstairs. Soon enough there was a knock on the door, you smile heading over opening the door seeing Harry standing there with a grocery bag of snacks in one hand and pizzas in the other “Hey…” you smile “I was happy to order the pizzas” you giggle letting Harry in. He shrugs “I figured I’d make things easier for you, I don’t mind” Harry smiles kissing your cheek softly moving past you Ned following behind him “oh my goodness Harry he’s getting so big” you laugh softly.

He placed everything on the kitchen counter before letting Ned off his leash. You unpacks the snacks as you watch smiling to yourself. You hear Noah yell from the living room “Mummy! Ned’s here!” You giggle a little taking the pizzas to the living room “I know baby, you know who else is here” you say softly sitting next to him on the couch “Harry’s here” you smile as Harry walks into the living room with snacks and a drink for you both. “Hi Harry!” Noah grins sitting up properly on the couch as you put some pizza on one of his little plates for him. “Here you go babe, eat up and we’ll watch a movie”

You eat dinner together watching a movie that Noah picked. It felt nice to have the structure of a family and that it was with Harry, but it also felt odd that you were having all these feelings about Harry.

Soon enough you had finished up with dinner and Noah was laying on your chest fighting off sleep as his movie continued to play. Ned had snuggled up at the end of the couch next to Harry’s feet looking very comfortable. “This is nice” Harry says softly glancing over at you. “Quite mundane to what we used to do” you say softly kissing Noah’s head.

Harry glances over at you and Noah “do you need to put him to bed?” He asks softly. You shake your head beginning to rub his back “No it’s ok, if I’m honest I like it when he falls asleep on me, I know it won’t last forever so I try and cherish it when it happens” you say softly. Eventually Noah fell asleep as his movie finished prompting you and Harry to pick something else.

Harry ended up picking a Marvel film knowing you would love it. By the time you were halfway through the film you and Harry were shoulder to shoulder with a throw over you both to keep warm. Eventually Noah’s steady breathing as well as the warmth from the blanket and the warmth radiating from Harry’s body caused you to become sleepy.

You yawn sitting up a little hugging Noah to your body “I’ll be right back, I’ll just put him to bed” you say softly. While you were up Harry took Ned out for a wee before you both got settled on the couch again. You sat closer to Harry before your head was resting on his shoulder. He shuffled down a little further so that you were laying on his chest instead, he wraps an arm around you rubbing your back a little.

“Thank you” you mumbles softly as Harry pulls the throw up a little more to keep you all warm. “What for?” He asks softly, you shrug a little “just for being here, I missed you….a lot H. Noah loves hanging out with you” you add backing up at him.

You sit with Harry in silence for a while as the TV kept playing the movie. “Can I ask something” he says softly. You nod lightly looking up at Harry “What happened to us?” He asks letting out a breath that he seemed to be holding in. You shrug a little “I guess we grew apart, we slowly stopped talking to one another when Ryan and I got together and next thing I knew I had a baby….I wish I hadn’t let him rule my life as much as he did” you say quietly.

Harry squeezes your shoulder before pulling you closer to him sad he places a kiss to your head causing you to blush. “Your doing an amazing job Y’know, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise” Harry says softly as you snuggle into him a little more “thank you” you whisper.

You sit in silence for around twenty minutes before you speak up “sometimes I wish I’d done things differently” you say softly “like what?” Harry asks, you shrug a little “well imagine what my life would be like if someone else was Noah’s Dad, or if I had finished my Masters while I was pregnant, or if I hadn’t gotten pregnant at all” you glance up at Harry who was pouting at you “c’mon you love being a mum” Harry says softly “I do, but sometimes I wish I could give Noah a normal family dynamic instead of just me” you say softly.

Harry hugs you tighter sighing a little bit not knowing what else to say. You sat together in silence for a while before you hear a whimper from the living room door you look up and see Noah standing in the doorway rubbing his eyes his bottom lip trembling “Noah, what’s wrong sweetheart?” You ask sitting up a little holding your arms open for him. He rushes over hugging you tightly, you lift him back onto the couch letting him snuggle into you as you lay back into Harry’s side. “Talk to Mummy what’s wrong bud?” You ask softly kissing his head as Noah’s tears begin to fall onto your shirt.

“I-I had a bad dream Mummy” he sniffles his little arms wrapped around your neck “do you want to talk to Mummy about it?” You ask softly rubbing his back “I had a dream that….I didn’t see Ned or Harry again, it makes me sad Mummy” he whimpers fresh tears falling from his little face. Harry glances at you “may I?” He asks softly, you nod “Noah” Harry says softly, Noah looks up at him with his red eyes “Ned and I really like spending time with you and Mummy, we’re going to be here as long as you and Mummy want us here, I promise”

You look up at Harry, tears stinging your own eyes. Noah looks up at him before shuffling across to give him a cuddle without saying anything. Harry hugs him tightly pulling you in closer simultaneously “thank you H” you whisper softly kissing his cheek. Harry looks down at you moving to rest his forehead to yours snuggling the three of you up together.

In that moment you knew this was what you wanted.

Noah stayed snuggled up on Harry’s chest. You snuggled yourself back into Harry’s side as he pressed play on the movie you were watching, turning the volume down slightly. After a mere ten minutes Noah was out like a light. “Want me to take him?” You whisper softly, Harry simply shakes his head “I got it” he smiles leaning over a little to kiss your forehead softly.

You move over a little allowing Harry to get up he tucks Noah’s legs either side of his torso, Noah’s delicate arms still around Harry’s neck. He got him tucked in before returning to the living room “I just left his door open a little I hope that’s ok?” Harry asks. You nod smiling “thank you so much”. Harry resumes his previous position next to you “anytime” he smiles lightly.

You snuggle back into Harry’s side as he wraps an arm around you again. You sit in silence for a while consumed by your own thoughts you sigh softly sitting up a little “H….are we going to get ourselves into trouble?” You ask turning to look at him. Harry’s brow creases “How so?” He whispers turning to face you. “This is only the second time we’ve hung out in four years and we’re snuggled up on my couch”.

Harry simply grins at you. He knew what you were asking.

“You think if we get caught hanging out things will go south?” He asks. You nod slightly “why are you smiling about this I’m serious H” you shove his shoulder a little.

“I know, I know, I’m sorry” he pouts “but….it’s only a semester, then after that I’m not your professor anymore, I’m your friend Harry” he explains softly trying to make light of the situation “Exams are in a few weeks and you’ll have a few weeks off we can hang out more before second semester”

Reaching over for the tv remote you pause the movie again “what are you getting at here Harry” you grumble a little. He sighs softly picking at his shirt. “I….just want to get through the semester, and see where things go, I like spending time with you and Noah, Ned and Noah are almost inseparable” he says softly not wanting to give anything else away.

You both settle back down into the couch, finishing the movie in an eerie, awkward silence. Once the movie had come to an end Harry helped you to clean up, Ned following you both to the kitchen. “I um, I should get going, thank you for having me….and Ned” Harry adds cause you to giggle “you’re both welcome anytime Harry, thank you for coming over it was really nice and thank you….for everything” you smile a little leaning up to kiss his cheek softly.

As you pull away you notice Harrys cheeks had gone a little red “text me when your home? So I know you got there?” You ask. Harry simply nods before responding “of course” he chuckles. He leans over giving you a quick hug which you gladly reciprocate.

You see Harry out before cleaning up a little more getting ready to head to bed yourself. You get tucked in and await Harry’s text which you soon received.

‘Home safe, Neds already passed out for the night, I had a great time, thank you again for having me x’

You smile reading his message before responding.

‘Thank you for tonight, Noah and I needed it, hopefully we can do it again soon. Goodnight H xx’

You set your phone down before quickly drifting off to sleep.

*****

Exams were heading your way…and fast.

Your final exam for the semester was today and it was the class you were most worried about, Harry’s.

You weren’t sure if you were worried about failing or if you were worried that your answers were going to be read and graded by Harry. Noah had been staying with your Mum for the week while you sat all your exams. You were really starting to miss him, you couldn’t have been more excited to be able to go and pick him up after your exam.

You got dressed and started packing your bag to head off when there was a knock at your door. You quickly scoot over and open it to a flower delivery man.

He reads out your name before handing you a beautiful bunch of mixed coloured blooms a little card poking out the top. You take them into the kitchen placing them on the counter. You open the card and smile widely,

‘Good luck today, we know you’ll do great, we’re so proud of you, all our love. Harry, Noah & Ned xxx’

You take a quick snap of the card and flowers sending it to Harry.

‘Thank you for the flowers they’re gorgeous, you boys are too sweet to me’

You send off the text quickly before heading out the door.

*****

Your final exam was the fastest three hours of your life, but you’d never felt better about an exam. Everything just seemed to flow well. You walked out feeling confident and satisfied that you had done everything you could.

You were heading to your car to go and get Noah when you notice Harry walking towards you “Hey” he says softly as he gets closer “come with me” he smirks. You give him a little side eye before obliging following him towards his office “what are we doing Harry?” You ask giggling softly.

“Just do as your told” Harry chuckles coming to a stop outside his office door “close your eyes” he smiles standing closer behind you his chest bumping your back as he was leaning over to open the door “watch your step” he whispers guiding your waist up to his office.

You step into Harry’s office your eyes still shut, you hear Harry close the door behind you “shuffle to your left a little” he whispers softly, you do as Harry asked before he steadies you in your spot “ok, stay there a second” he says before kissing your cheek softly. You blush and nod a little hearing Harry walk away from you.

“Alright, open” Harry calls out.

You open your eyes to see Noah on Harry’s hip holding yet another bunch of flowers. Lettering balloons spelling out ‘Congrats’ above the pair. You smile widely “oh my goodness, you two!” You giggle walking towards them “yay Mummy!” Noah yells kicking his feet out.

Harry chuckles smiling at Noah “give Mummy her flowers” Harry says to him quietly Noah quickly leans forward to hand you your flowers “thank you baby, can Mum have a kiss?” You ask softly leaning down to kiss his cheek, Noah returning it.

“How did you do all this?” You ask Harry playing with Noah’s hair. “Your mum, she was a huge help….she’s actually insisting that we go over there for dinner, all of us” Harry says softly “but if your not comfortable with me going I don’t have to it ok” you giggle a little at Harry rambling on “H….H, it’s ok, I want you to be there, please” you smile “plus, it’s the end of the semester, we said we would talk” you say biting your lip a little looking up at Harry a smirk covering his lips.

“I love the sound of that” Harry smiles. You kiss his cheek once more before Noah starts pushing at you “Mummy! Mummy! Can we go back to Grandmas now?” Noah asks. You nods “of course baby, would you like to carry Mummy’s flowers?” You ask as Harry lowers Noah to the ground who then runs off with your flowers to collect his other belongings.

While Noah is gone Harry places his hand on your waist pulling you closer to him “I’m so proud of you” Harry whispers leaning his forehead against yours before kissing your head you blush leaning further into Harry’s hold “couldn’t have done it without you H” you whisper wrapping your arms around him hugging him tightly as Noah came back.

You and Harry get yourselves and Noah organised making your way to your Mums in seperate cars.

You let yourself in Harry and Noah trailing along behind you. Your mum greets you with one of the biggest hugs you’d ever had “he’s very sweet, and very attractive” she whispers to you quiet enough that Harry couldn’t hear. Pulling away you glare at her “behave” you warn knowing what she was thinking. She shrugs “Noah loves him, he clearly likes you silly girl” she complains. You groan a little simply walking away “love you Mum” you smile as you walk off.

*****

After dinner your mum offered to give Noah a bath giving you an opportunity to just wind down. You sit down with a glass of wine in the sun room under the night sky.

Your mind finally feeling as though it was at peace.

A few minutes pass, you could hear your Mum and Noah laughing from the bathroom. You smile a little relaxing back into your seat.

“Y’ok?” Harry asks causing you to jump a little before nodding “yeah I’m great” you smile. Harry comes to sit next to you “sorry, I didn’t mean to frighten you”.

You hum acknowledging Harry’s apology. “I know we said we’d talk” you start before Harry takes your hand “it’s ok, you’re exhausted” Harry says softly “besides I only have one question” he adds “Y/N I would love to take you on a date, if that’s something that you would like?” Harry asks softly.

You look up at him turning your body a little “like a proper date?” You ask a little surprised. Harry simply nods “yeah like we’ll go to dinner and a movie or bowling or mini golf or we could do all of it” he smiles as you rest your head on his shoulder.

You reach over taking Harry’s hand playing with his fingers “I like mini golf” you smile a little looking up at Harry, he grins pulling you closer “H, what about Noah?” You asks softly. He shrugs a little “we may have accidentally already talked about it” Harry says looking at you a little worried. “What do you mean?” You asks softly turning to face Harry a little more.

“When I picked Noah up today, he started asking questions about…us, he took it really well, wanted to know if you and I were ‘boyfriend and girlfriend’ I asked him how he would feel if we were to date and hang out more, he got really excited about it. I hope that’s ok, I should have asked you first I’m sorry.” Harry says softly squeezing your hand.

You look up at him pouting “Harry….” You whimper softly “that’s the sweetest thing I’ve ever heard” as you were about to lean over to peck the corner of Harry’s lips Noah came running in, his little body covered in his Spider-Man pyjamas, he jumps up to climb into yours and Harry’s lap “Mummy, I’m all clean” he says squishing between you both causing you to giggle. You ruffle his still damp hair before kissing his head “you smell so fresh and clean dude” he smiles giving you a hug before whispering in your ear “can I cuddle with you and Harry?” He asks softly you sigh happily nodding “of course babe” he settles between you both Harry’s arm still around you his other one coming to rest on Noah’s back, yours brushing through Noah’s hair.

“Y’know this is everything I’ve ever wanted” Harry whispers, you hum snuggling into him more “me too….I like the idea of this being our family, you me Noah and Ned” you say looking up at Harry.

“My god your perfect” he sighs leaning down nudging your nose with his before kissing your softly, his tender lips matching perfectly to your own being as gentle as he could with you as to not disturb Noah.

You hum and giggle a little against Harry’s lips feeling like a teenager sneaking around not only your son but your mum as well.

*****

A few weeks had passed since your final exam and you had been essentially inseparable from Harry since. You had been spending a lot of time together with Noah and alone and making things work in between your busy holiday work schedule and between Harry preparing for his new students the coming semester.

You had become incredibly trusting of Harry with a lot of things, including caring for Noah. You had been working a lot lately which meant you couldn’t always rely on your Mum to look after Noah, which meant Harry had offered to step up.

You were apprehensive at first but after leaving them together for a few hours one afternoon to come home to the pair cooking dinner and dancing around the kitchen to Noah’s favourite songs. You knew then you could trust Harry with anything, it made you feel safe.

*****

You were snuggled up with Harry on his couch one night Noah already in the spare bed asleep. “I could really get used to this” you whisper softly glancing up at Harry.

He smiles down at you kissing your forehead “me too” he smiles gently. You giggle a little “you’ve got a real Daddy vibe happening at the moment” you blurt out without thinking. Harry moves to look at you a little surprised “y’think so?” He asks, you simply nod “Noah loves it, and honestly I kinda do too, it’s really attractive” you smirk biting your lip a little.

Harry chuckles a little connecting his lips with your own in a needy kiss as you hoist your leg up over his lap causing Harry to reach down grabbing at your ass to pull you into his lap. You giggle as your tongues and teeth clash in what had turned out to be a messy make out, eventually without realising Harry had started grinding up into your core as he pulled and tugged at your bottom lip with hip teeth and nibbled at the skin of your neck.

“Should we go upstairs?” Harry mumbles against you as you tug his shirt over his head and throw it off to the side not caring where it landed.

“I’m fine here” you pant as Harry’s hands make their way up to your chest under the t-shirt of his you had borrowed to wear as pyjamas.

“Good because so am I” Harry smirks picking you up laying you on your back on the couch. You giggle, Harry placing his lips against yours once more as you wrap your legs around him.

Harry continued to grind into you before he began kissing down your neck. He glances up at you for a moment smirking moving down your body to your thighs. He kisses the inside of each thigh before kissing your cloth covered clit causing you to moan out softly. Harry pushed your shirt up slowly with his nose as he kisses up your torso.

“Gunna let me taste you?” Harry mumbles as he makes it to your lips. You nod running your hands through Harry’s hair “please” you whimper pecking his lips several times.

Harry grips your thighs kissing back down your body until he makes it to your panty line. Harry slowly pulls your panties down your thighs tossing them to the floor “so needy for me baby” Harry mumbles placing a kiss to your clit, you whimper softly placing your hand on Harry’s on your hip.

Harry kisses down to your entrance before flattening his tongue against you. You sigh at the feeling of Harry against you as he laps you up his tongue making it back to your clit before he started alternating between licking and sucking. You let your knees drop further relaxing into Harry’s touch.

He soon adds to your stimulation slipping two fingers inside you curling them slightly causing you to roll your hips meeting Harry’s motions. You bring your fist to your mouth trying to stifle the loud moans trying to escape as to not wake Noah.

You soon felt a familiar knot beginning to form in your lower belly, your breathing picked up as you grabbed for Harry’s free hand. You whimper softly as Harry’s movements quicken sensing your were close to the edge. “Harry I’m going to…” you take in a sharp breath ready to finish your sentence when Harry removes his fingers abruptly before removing his mouth from your now drenched and throbbing pussy.

You let out a frustrated moan sitting up a little to look at Harry “what the hell?” You plead as he smirks kissing your thighs. He quickly moves back to encapsulate your lips in his own for a few moments before pulling away a little “edging” he murmurs causing you to huff and push his chest lightly “fucking tease” you whisper pecking his lips lightly “but two can play that game” you smirk against him before untucking yourself from his hold and walking away to the master bedroom and attached ensuite.

There was no way you were letting Harry get away with this, but you wanted to test him to see how far he would go.

You leave both Harry’s bedroom door and the ensuite door ajar not wanting to send Harry the wrong message. You turn the shower on getting the bathroom nice and steamy before stepping in you kept your back to the shower door for a few minutes before you head someone clear their throat behind you. You spin around and see Harry gawking at you from the doorway, still naked and definitely still aroused.

You giggle a little biting your lip softly “Yes, Professor Styles?” You ask softly tilting your head back a little letting the water run over your naked body. You notice Harry’s hands twitch as he makes his way to the shower.

He slips in behind you your back still facing him his cold finger tips grazing your hips “y’think you can tease me?” He murmurs into your neck nibbling at a few spots before kissing over them as one of his hands reaches down your torso to your hip before cupping your heat “do you think that was a good idea baby?” He asks softly before surprising you plunging two fingers back into you as he had done on the couch.

You gasp at the feeling your heels leaving the ground for a moment your tip toes holding you up. “You’re so beautiful” Harry whispers holding you closer to him “gunna let me fuck you baby?” He asks kissing your neck again. You nod against him weak at the knees for him again like you hadn’t walked away from this tease of a man a mere five minutes ago.

Harry turns you pushing you against the bathroom wall bending you over a little to keep you steady, “ready sweet girl?” Harry asks positioning himself at your entrance he pushes one of your legs out a little more to help him gain better access to what he desired most.

You whimper at the feeling of the cold tile against your chest before a gasp and an unexpected moan escapes your lips as Harry plunged himself into you, Harry grips your hips tightly groaning softly at the feeling of your soft walls clenching around him. He places some soft delicate kisses up your spine “so tight for me baby” Harry whispers kissing your jaw you lean back in his hold a little humming.

His hands begin to wander to your front cupping your breasts giving deep, slow thrusts where you were connected. A soft moan escapes your lips as Harry draws your ass back into him. Harry runs a hand up your spine nibbling at your neck before he bends you over gripping your hip “H…” you pant softly “fuck me hard H… please” you beg clenching around Harry causing him to groan.

Harry bends down to your ear kissing just under it “want me to destroy that tight little pussy baby?” Harry mumbles into your ear. You open your mouth to respond when Harry gives a single hard thrust causing your knees to become weak and a whimper to escape your lips.

“Fuck Harry” you moan “don’t tease me H” you mumble. You hear Harry chuckle behind you kissing your shoulder “y’sure about that?” Harry asks massaging your ass as he goes back to slow pumps causing the tension to build in your tummy again.

“I’m sure” you respond clenching around Harry again causing him to groan “fuck sweetheart, you feel fuckin’amazing” Harry moans as he delivers another hard thrust before slowing down again. You smirk clenching him again. You hear an snigger leave Harry’s lips before his hands came to grip your waist “I warned you” he whispers into your ear before kissing your jaw smirking against your skin.

Harry grips your hips with both hands as he begins to thrust into you hard. “So fucking good H” you pant, he pulls you into him until your ass was flush with his hips, cock buried deep inside you, you gasp a little whimpering.

Harry rubs your hips kissing your back “c’mere” Harry mumbles pulling out abruptly pushing your hips to turn you around to face him. “Why’d you stop again?” You whine causing Harry to smirk “just wanted to look at you” he smiles. Harry reaches over turning the shower off before reaching down picking you up to wrap your legs around his torso.

Harry moves from the shower out to the bathroom counter sitting you on the edge before he smirks at you “let me finish what we started?” Harry asks. You giggle and nod “if you don’t you’ll be in trouble” you smirk pulling him towards you connecting your lips to his.

You pull away kissing down his neck just under his ear “make me cum H” you whisper in his ear. Harry moans softly “so needy for me” he smirks. Harry guides himself back to your entrance. You sigh as Harry pushes himself back into your entrance and wastes no time in fucking into you mercilessly.

Harry had edged you so much that it took near on no time for you to be clenching around Harry trying to hold off your own orgasm “H I’m so close, fucking me so well babe” you moan. Harry grips your thigh with one hand and moves to rub your clit with the thumb of his other hand. “Let go for me baby, cum on my cock please” he begs nibbling at your neck.

Your toes begin to curl and your legs begin to shake at Harry’s request you grip the edge of the bathroom counter as you begin to unravel “Harry…..” you whimper rolling your hips into him “fuck!” You moan out as one of the strongest orgasms you’d ever had washed over your body you clench and pulse around Harry who three pumps later was filling you with his cum “babe, such fucking good pussy” Harry moans holding your left hip like his life depends on it.

Harry stills inside you panting into your neck. He slowly moves his face to connect his lips with yours you wrap your hands in Harry’s hair “so good to me” he mumbles on your lips you hum smiling “you’re so amazing H” you whisper kissing him again.

Harry eventually gets you cleaned up and carried you off to his bed tucking you both in. You were chatting away the door still just ajar when you hear a little voice coming from the hallway “Mummy” Noah whimpers “yeah baby, come here” you respond. He rushes through the door towards you, you pick him up from the side of the bed pulling him into your chest “y’ok bud?” You ask softly rubbing his back a little his tired eyes looking up at you “I want to cuddle with Daddy” he whimpers softly.

You glance at Harry for a moment before looking back at Noah, he’d never really brought up his Dad until now and if you were honest you were a little shocked by it “what do you mean sweetheart?” You ask, Noah looked at you then at Harry. He squirms from your arms into Harry’s arms “Cuddle with Daddy” Noah whispers snuggling into Harry’s chest.

That’s when it dawned on you Noah was calling Harry, Daddy. Your jaw drops as you look at Harry who was seeming having the same realisation, tears stinging his eyes. You look at Noah kissing his head softly “baby, did you just call Harry Daddy?”, Noah look up at you with his wide eyes and nods “Stella at daycare said that Daddy’s spend time with Mummy’s and…and spend time with kids and…and Harry does that for me, did I do something wrong mummy?” He asks his little bottom lip beginning to tremble.

You and Harry glance at each other before Harry shakes his head “not at all Noah it’s ok….I’d love to be your Dad bud” Harry says softly pushing Noah’s hair from his face. Noah looks up and nods “yes please”.

In that very moment you felt yourself becoming anxious, your heart knew that this was everything you wanted, but your mind was racing with everything that could go wrong with this happening. What if Ryan found out. What if Noah eventually worked out Harry wasn’t his Dad. What if Ryan contested for full custody.

You let Noah settle trying to play off your own anxieties before kissing Harry’s cheek “I just need some water” you say softly sliding out of bed. You head out to the kitchen before heading out into Harry’s small backyard to check on Ned.

Almost twenty minutes pass and you still hadn’t returned to bed, leading Harry to go and tuck a now sleeping Noah back into bed before moving out to the kitchen. Still not being able to find you Harry ventures outside when he sees the door slightly cracked open.

He comes to settle next to you on the patio a glass of water in one of your hands the other petting Ned who had settled at your side. “Love, what are y’doing out here?” Harry asks softly. You sigh a little “I don’t know, just got a little overwhelmed I think” you say softly. Harry reaches out to tuck some loose hair behind your ear “Should we talk about it?” He asks. You shrug a little “I love that your willing to take on a parent role for Noah, but I’m also scared, what if Noah finds out your not his biological Dad, what if Ryan try’s to get full custody….what if we don’t work out?” You begin to ramble your anxieties coming to light, your body begins to shake your breathing begins to quicken and tears begin to build in your eyes.

Harry noticed instantly and wrapped an arm around you pulling you into his chest “Hey, c’mon babe I’m here everything’s ok” he whispers kissing your temple as you rest your head in the crook of his neck “we should have talked about it first I’m sorry” Harry whispers rubbing your shoulder “But, I’m not going anywhere, you and Noah mean the world to me Y/N, it’s us and our boys” Harry says softly pulling you closer to kiss you softly. You couldn’t help but smile a little on his lips “our boys” you whisper resting your head to Harry’s.

Hearing Harry talk about being a family settled your anxiety enough for you to head back up to bed, but there was still going to be plenty to navigate.

Eventually Harry got you snuggled into his chest just the way he liked.

You woke the next morning to find an empty space next to you. You hum softly rolling over grabbing Harry’s pillow pulling it towards you.

Taking in his scent you couldn’t help but smile, you wrap your arms around it pulling it to your chest closing your eyes listening out for any other signs that Harry was awake.

Within a few minutes you could hear Harry trying to softly pad his way back to bed to his failure the weight of his large feet giving him away.

“You’re not as quiet as you think Styles” you mumble your face still half buried in his pillow, eyes still closed.

He lets out a breathy chuckle “thought you were asleep” he says softly leaning over to kiss your temple. You giggle a little shaking your head eyes still closed before whining a little “why do you have to smell so good, I never want to leave this bed” you open one eye to glance at Harry who was kneeling at the side of the bed smirking back at you.

“You don’t ever have to if you don’t want to, I’d wait on you hand and foot until we’re old and grey if that’s what you wanted” Harry smiles, you hide your face further into the pillow to conceal your blushing cheeks from Harry, who instead grabbed your chin tilting your face towards him before kissing you softly.

You hum against his warm, plump lips, you would never get over this feeling, this feeling of being loved by someone you truely loved as well. It was something mundane to you but wouldn’t trade it for anything. You had an indescribable amount of love, affection and passion for the man in front of you.

Pulling away slowly and a little reluctantly, you scan Harry’s face caressing his cheek lightly before smiling a little as he places little kisses to the insides of your palms. You stare at him a little while longer before revealing your biggest secret “Harry…” he looks up at you at the mention of his name, you smile a little continuing to caress his cheeks “I love you”.

Harry stares at you for a moment before he breaks out in a wide smile and red cheeks that he tried to hide behind your hands. He leans closer so his forehead was resting to yours he places two of the softest yet most passionate kisses to your lips before looking you dead in the eye and responding.

“I love you…and Noah, I’m so happy with you both in my life” he whispers before connecting his lips to yours once more.

You pull Harry’s arms signalling to him to climb up on the bed with you. The passion and love you felt towards this man right now had no right to be contained.

You had morning breath, your hair an absolute mess and had Harry’s t-shirt from last night covering your torso and no panties. But none of that mattered just words couldn’t describe how you felt about Harry.

You needed him, and by his next course of action he needed you as well. Harry’s lips never left yours he managed to push his shorts off leaving his fresh hoodie on and pulling your t-shirt up to enable access to what you both needed.

You bring your knees up and let them drop for Harry to shuffle up in between them. He grabs the covers behind him and pulls them up over you both, the back of his mind still aware that there is a child in the house who is as unpredictable as his mother.

Harry slowly pulls away to position himself at your entrance gliding into you with ease. A satisfied moan leaves your lips as you relax back into the pillows around you. One hand making it’s way to the back of Harry’s neck pulling him in to kiss you once again.

Harry kisses you a few times before whispering in your ear “you are music to my ears sweet girl”. He begins delivering deep but gentle thrusts to you wanting to savour every single second with you.

You tilt your head back grinding into Harry’s thrusts. His public bone was meeting with your clit in perfect time and creating the perfect feeling to you. Harry’s forehead meets yours as he continues to thrust into you.

It really wasn’t very long before your toes were beginning to curl trying to hold off on your orgasm, the passion in the room mixed with Harry’s talents had you both trying to hold onto the inevitable mix of fluids.

You open your eyes and see the crease in Harry’s brow his mouth agape eyes squeezed shut. You move your hands to his cheeks directing his lips to yours as you wrap your arms around him pulling him closer to you. Your arms slowly make their way down his back where you push down at his belt line enabling you to grind your hips into his even more causing Harry to groan on your lips.

He reluctantly pulls away from the kiss resting his head to your own once more. “I….you….Jesus fuck” he pants as his thrusts become a little sloppier and your grip becomes tighter as your body threatens to burst.

Your eyes meet Harry’s and he simply nods. You scan his face once more as Harry delivered the thrust to end it all. You begin to squirm under him as the middle of your back leaves the mattress your legs come to squeeze at Harry’s hips this seemingly sending him to the peak of his own high.

He grabs at your hip delivering another few deep thrusts before moaning out your name in pure bliss as you both shake and whimper tangled in each other Harry’s body collapses onto your own his hot breath covering your neck.

You both lay in silence for a few minutes your hands rubbing through Harry’s hair as he rubs circles into your thigh.

Harry slowly moves to hover over you once more leaning down kissing you with the utmost tenderness he slowly pulls away not even opening his eyes “you…you are everything” he whispers kissing both of your cheeks opening his eyes to look down at you.

Your eyes meet his and you both smile “I’m your everything H” you whisper pecking his lips again. You wanted to stay wrapped up like this forever especially considering how intimate the entire moment had been. Harry went back to laying on your chest as he softened inside of you you rub your hands through his hair a while but before long Noah was calling for his Mummy.

You sigh softly and giggle a little “at least he didn’t let himself in I guess” you comment causing Harry to laugh kissing at your neck “I’ll go get him” he mumbles into your skin kissing your jaw then your lips before slowly pulling himself away from and out of you simultaneously.

You gasp a little at the now empty feeling. Harry places a final kiss to your forehead before pulling his shorts on walking out of the room to the spare room which Harry had insisted now be Noah’s room when you stayed over.

You wait a few minutes expecting Harry to simply bring him back to you for the three of you to cuddle in bed for a while. When almost five minutes pass you get up find a pair of panties and shuffle over to the ensuite to clean up before heading downstairs legs exposed to the cool morning air. Harry’s shirt still covering your frame.

You walk into the kitchen to find Harry and Noah making an absolute mess, but it was the cutest mess you had ever seen. “Hi my loves, what on earth is happening here?” You giggle a little moving to the kitchen island where they were situated. You place a kiss to Noah’s cheek “Mummy! We’re making breakfast!” Noah yells excitedly.

You look up at Harry who was already staring down at you, his hand finds your waist and his lips find yours his hand moving down your back to your bum giving it a light squeeze.

“Thank you for getting him up and organising breakfast” you smile up at Harry. He simply shrugs “no hassle at all, I’ve got you babe” he winks causing you to giggle a little “he needed a wee and said he was hungry so I figured there was no better time to get up and make breakfast” Harry adds smiling.

“You…are the absolute best” you say softly pecking Harry’s cheek “not at all sweetheart, I’m just a man who adores having you both here” Harry smirks. You blush and hug his side ruffling Noah’s hair “can I do anything to help?” You ask softly “noooo Mummy, we don’t need help I big boy!” Noah butts in causing you to laugh “yes chef” you smile and move to sit on the other side of the island.

Harry hands you a cup of coffee which you gladly take “thank you” you smile. You watch the pair in awe as they continue to make a mess.

You help Noah to set the table while Harry cooks some eggs and pancakes the kitchen beginning to smell of the bacon that Harry had in the oven.

You sat down together as a family and ate breakfast. Noah still making a mess. You sit back watching him for a while smiling to yourself. “Hey” Harry says softly wrapping his hand around yours “you ok?” He asks a crease in his brow. You nod smiling “I’m amazing” you squeeze his hand in return.

You sit in silence for a little while longer before Harry speaks up again “Uni goes back soon” you glance over at him and nod “yeah only a week to go” you smile “y’nervous?” Harry asks softly “your last semester ever” he teases.

You raise an eyebrow in his direction “I’m excited to have more time for you and Noah” you say softly leaning over to kiss Harry’s cheek. “Would you be upset if I tell the University about us? I don’t really want to hide us”.

You sit thinking on Harry’s words for a moment the only background noise being Noah playing with Ned “I think we should tell them, better to disclose the relationship we have now rather than get caught up with it somehow…..I don’t know about you but I don’t really have intentions of keeping my hands to myself now that you’re not my professor anymore”

Harry simply chuckles pulling you into his lap “I’ll always be your professor” he winks kissing your cheek causing you to giggle and smile nestling your head into his side “I hope so, because that’s all I want” you say softly pecking his lips.

****

The first week back had begun and Tuesday mornings you had an early lecture at 7:30 which meant a 6am start for you. Harry had been amazing and offered to organise Noah in the mornings and then drop in at day care before he started his own busy schedule.

You had both been staying with each other on and off and even having a few nights alone here and there. You’d even made space in your wardrobe for Harry which was apparently a big move that Harry appreciated and worshipped you for.

Pulling yourself from the shower you dry off a little before shuffling to your wardrobe to grab some clothes. You glance over at Harry who was still asleep his curls covered half of his face you smile a little to yourself before turning you attention back to your clothes.

Pulling a sweater over your head you spot a pair of strong, tattooed arms sneaking their way around you. You hum as Harry snuggles his head into your neck kissing your jaw “good morning” Harry mumbles the rasp in his voice evident “good morning baby” you smile softly rubbing your hands through his hair, “y’smell s’good” Harry groans.

You giggle and smile kissing the side of Harrys head “thank you…” you just stand together for a moment Harry rocking you from side to side a little “I need to shower” Harry grumbles, you giggle turning in Harry’s grip “I’ll go and make Noah’s lunch, want some breakfast?” You ask softly “yes please” Harry smirks.

He slowly lets you go pecking your lips a few times “I love you” Harry whispers against your lips. “I love you too H” you wrap your arms around him kissing him softly “meet you in the kitchen” you smile on his lips. He gives you a final squeeze before letting you go.

****

You make your way to the kitchen quickly pulling together Noah’s lunch before moving onto yours and Harry’s while also making breakfast for everyone. Harry soon appears dressed and ready for his day just missing his blazer his hair still damp. He puts some coffee on kissing your cheek lightly “can I grab the little man?” He asks softly.

You smile and nod “yes please that would be a huge help thank you Harry” you look up at him with a smile, he winks back at you heading down to Noah’s room. He was only gone a few seconds before he was calling out to you “Babe…Y/N!, fuck quickly!”

When Harry called out for you, you file hear the urgency in his voice you drop what you were doing and run to Noah’s room. You immediately notice Noah’s hair wet with sweat and his little body pale in colour.

“What happened?!” You ask frantically coming to Harry’s side as he tried to wake Noah “he was just like this, what do we do?” Harry was panicking, you could hear it, but you didn’t have time for him to have a meltdown right now.

“Call an ambulance Harry” you say going to pick Noah up, as soon as your face is near him you hear a gurgle and wheeze with his breathing. You squeeze his little hand “Noah” you say firmly in an attempt to wake him. You shake his shoulder a little and he begins to cough, vomit sputtering from him mouth “Harry hurry up!” You yell pulling Noah from his bed laying him across you in an attempt to help him clear his chest.

He begins frantically coughing causing another vomit. Harry races back in his phone to his ear as he spoke to the operator. Noah continues to struggle and before you knew it the unthinkable happened, his coughing and vomiting stopped his eyes rolled back in his head “no…no, Harry tell them to hurry!” You yell as Noah’s lips turned blue and he began to seize in your arm.

Harry had become frantic on the phone yelling at the operator to hurry as you placed Noah on the carpet to try and support his breathing better, tears began to fall down your cheeks as your son convulsed on the floor in front of you. You support him on his side to maintain his airway as his seizure comes to an end. You look up to see Harry gone, he soon returned with two paramedics following behind him.

They started to throw around a heap of words and terms you nor Harry understood. They begin to ready Noah to go to hospital briefly talking to you about where they were going and what they had done so far but not much more than that. You look at Harry concern covering both his and your own face, “go with him” Harry says softly “I’ll follow behind” he adds kissing your head softly.

They load Noah up into the ambulance and you clamber in with him. Harry quickly grabbed the essentials including a change of clothes for you to replace your vomit covered ones before getting in his car heading off to the hospital. By the time Harry arrived they had Noah in a paediatric room in the emergency department.

“How’s he doing?” Harry asks softly placing the bag he brought with him down. You shrug a little “I don’t really know, they think he has meningitis” you sigh resting your head in your hands. “C’mere” Harry whispers pulling you into his chest “he’s gunna be ok” Harry says softly kissing your hair, “should I call your Mum?” Harry asks softly rubbing your back.

You shake your head a little tucking yourself into Harry’s hold “I’ll call her” you whimper a little. Harry gives you a squeeze before letting you go kissing your forehead.

You step out to call your mum, halfway through your call Harry sticks his head out of the room “y/n…he’s waking up” Harry says softly. You quickly end the call to your mum stepping back into the room seeing Noah looking quiet groggy but awake looking around at his unusual surroundings.

“Hi baby” you whisper softly “how y’feeling?” You ask softly. “Mummy” he whimpers you lean over and kiss his forehead. You sit with Noah for a while as he rests Harry watching you both.

Soon enough the doctor knocks on the door before stepping in “Miss y/l/n, we have Noah’s results….it is meningitis, but it’s bacterial….at this stage he’s had a prophylactic dose of IV antibiotics which he will no longer require. We’ll keep the fluids going and keep his temperature at bay, all going well you’ll be able to take Noah home this afternoon, he’ll just need the rest of the week to rest, I understand Noah goes to daycare?” The doctor asks glancing between you and Harry.

You nod “yeah he goes to the day care at the University” you say softly “it’s most likely that’s were the infection has originated” the doctor explains. You nod a little “what about the seizure? Do we need to worry?” You ask Noah snuggling into you. “No, we’re confident the seizure was due to his temperature provided he has regular paracetamol to keep his temp down he’ll make a full recovery” you nod “thank you so much”.

The doctor smiles before walking out you glance over at Harry letting out a breath you felt like you’d be holding in since this morning Harry moves kissing your head and Noah’s “oh my goodness” you sigh “y’did so well buddy” Harry whispers softly. “Mummy and Daddy love you so much” he adds. You look up at him a pout on your lips “I love you” you whimper, Harry cups your face with his hands kissing you passionately “I love you sweetheart, you’ve done so so well” Harry says softly shuffling you both across the little hospital bed pulling you both into his chest “and your so brave little man”

You all snuggle up for the day you and Harry taking turns keeping an eye on Noah. Eventually at 8pm that night almost 14 hours since the ordeal began you were heading home. Noah was tired. You were all tired. You all needed a good night sleep.

After discussing with Harry and Harry being adamant that it would work, he decided he would stay home with Noah the days you had classes so you wouldn’t miss anything and the days that you had off Harry would go to work instead. You get Noah in the bath and ready for bed, both you and Harry being too anxious to let him sleep in his own room you decide to let him sleep in your bed Harry opting to sleep in Noah’s bed to give you enough room.

You tuck Noah into your bed him quickly falling asleep. You head off to shower with Harry who already had the bathroom steamed up you smile softly seeing him waiting for you towel wrapped about his waist loosely.

“Hey you” he smiles softly “y’doing ok sweetheart?”Harry asks pulling you into his chest. You nod softly resting your head on Harry’s chest “yeah H, I’m ok, what about you?” You ask he nods kissing your head. You look up at him wrapping your arms around his shoulders “thank you….for being the best Dad to Noah H, it means everything to me”.

Harry hums “This is our family babe, you don’t have to thank me….speaking of family, Mum and Gemma have been asking when they get to see you” Harry smiles pushing your hair behind your ear.

You giggle placing some small kisses to Harry’s neck, “why don’t we go for a weekend when Noah’s better?” You ask looking up at Harry who was smiling down at you “you’d really want to go for a weekend?” He asks softly.

You nod pulling him to the shower “I’d love to Harry, plus it’d be nice for the three of us to get out of the city for a weekend, take Ned with us, I think we need it” you say as you undress, Harry doesn’t say a word causing you to look up at him “Harry?” You ask giggling a little his eyes move to meet yours a smirk on his lips “sorry I didn’t hear anything after you took your shirt off” you laugh continuing to undress Harry’s eyes glued to you.

You stand in front of him the shower still going “coming in?” You ask tugging on Harry’s towel causing it to fall to the floor, he simply nods eyeing you up and down as you step under the water you turn your back to him and he wraps his around around your waist pulling you to his chest placing kisses across your right shoulder.

Harry begins to slowly sway barely just enough for you to feel the movement but also enough for you to relax into his hold. “Who would have thought that you being my professor would have gotten us to here” you say softly Harry’s thumbs rubbing circles at your sides before turning you to face him.

He places a kiss to your forehead then your nose before pausing at your lips “I’ll always be your professor m’love” Harry replies before placing his lips to yours. You kiss back softly smiling against him. You slowly pull away resting your forehead to Harry’s before looking up at him.

“This is everything” Harry hums pulling you closer “it really is” you smile before placing your lips to Harry’s onceonce more.

Harry was right. This was absolutely everything.

Harry Styles. Arguably one of the most talked about pop stars you had ever worked with and you were ok with that.

You had worked with him more than any of your other clients in the last six months. Harry appreciated your work as a writer and producer and even appreciated the smaller things you did for him like teaching him to re-string his guitar and set up a studio so he wouldn’t get feedback through his mics.

It was these little things that Harry appreciated you for that made you appreciate him, not only as an artist but as a human being. His self titled album was the first major project you had worked on so it was a learning curve for the both of you, which also meant a lot of late nights in the studio together sometimes working through the night if inspiration struck at a late hour.

Sir Pt. 2

CEO/Boss!Harry x FemReader

It had been two weeks. Two weeks since Harry had received that dreadful phone call about Luke. Two weeks since you’d been able to have a private moment with Harry, since you’d felt his lips on your own.

In saying all that you called texted and FaceTimed with each other every day. Harry had decided until everything blew over, he would work from home, it was not only a bad look for his company and himself being sued but Luke trying to press charges was the cake topper of it all. After a lengthy discussion one night with Harry you decided it was in your best interest and Harry’s for you to go and report what happened the night of the work party. You felt horrible that Harry had got mixed up in everything, none of it was his fault, nor was it yours. It was simply the horrific actions of someone else trying to tear you apart.

*****

It was nearing on lunchtime on Wednesday marking almost three weeks since you had last seen Harry. You were in your own little world when your phone rang with Harry’s name you smile to yourself wasting no time picking up “Well hello there sunshine” you answer, you could hear the smile playing on his lips as he spoke “Hey gorgeous, how are you?” Harry asks you giggle a little “m’ok, you?” You ask pushing away from your desk a little to focus on your conversation “I’m great, I actually have a surprise for you…. it’s in my office” you move from your desk making your way down the hall “what are you up to Mr Styles” you whisper softly “can I just walk in?” You ask softly feeling a little odd about just wandering into Harry’s office “yeah, just let yourself in” you smile a little before opening the door looking into Harry’s office you stop in the doorway, standing phone to his ear looking directly at you was Harry himself.

“Oh my god” you whisper “your here” you smile shoving your phone in your pocket moving across the room wrapping your arms around Harry his scent filling your nose “Hi” you whimper nuzzling your face into his neck “your here” you repeat as Harry simply nods “I’m here sweetheart” he whispers wrapping his arms around you tightly. Harry holds you for a while before pulling away a little cupping your cheeks as your lips trembled “I missed you so much” you giggle a little as Harry wipes your face “I missed you too” he smiles leaning down to kiss you softly holding you as close as possible. You kiss back holding Harry’s jacket in your palms. He slowly pulls away kissing your forehead “thing’s aren’t perfect, but they’re better” Harry says softly. Your brows furrow “should I be worried?” you ask softly. “Not at all sweetheart” he smiles.

******

The next few days were as blissful as you could have asked for, you stayed at Harry’s that night just snuggling and talking and enjoying each other’s company to both his and your delight. You had gone back to your old routine of Harry bringing coffee to work in the morning and spending time together stealing kisses here and there.

The following Monday rolled around far too quickly. You were planning on working late due to being a little behind today as Harry had spent a little extra time with you this morning. It was around 4pm when Joel burst through your office door, near tearing it off the hinges “oh my goodness, what is happening?” You ask as he rushes to sit down “shut up just listen, I was just talking to Harry’s assistant, apparently Harry settled with Luke, and it wasn’t a small amount, did he tell you?” Joel asks a crease present in the brows at the vacant expression on your own face.

“Uxch, no, he didn’t, excuse me” you whisper softly standing from your chair walking out of your office storming through into Harry’s. You weren’t quite sure how to feel in that moment, surprised, angry, annoyed, manipulated. You couldn’t pinpoint just one. Walking up to Harry’s desk he looks up while continuing with his phone conversation, he sees your expression hastily excusing himself and ending the call. He opened his mouth to speak but you soon cut him off. “You didn’t feel like telling me about the settlement?” You ask your raw emotion evident in your voice.

Harry simply looked at you mouth agape not sure how to approach the situation. You eventually huff dropping your head a little “what the hell Harry? Why didn’t you tell me?” He sighs softly “I don’t know, I didn’t want to worry you, he did the wrong thing I wasn’t going to let him win” you stand up crossing your arms over your chest “so you decided to pay him a stupid amount of money instead?!” You we’re getting angrier by the second “I know, I’m sorry, please don’t be mad” Harry says softly you glare at him “I’m angry Harry! You lied to me! If we want this to actually work, we kind of need to be honest with each other!” Your anger was clearly starting to set Harry off as well the crease in his brow prominent.

“Well, what even is this?! We’re clearly not just friends, and we’re not fucking so what are we doing?! I thought I was protecting you from Luke, I’m appalled at myself for letting someone like that work her for so long, what if you’re not the only one he’d tried that with?! I didn’t want to put you through the possibility that if he won, he could come back, I was trying to do the right thing!” He groans as his phone buzzes with a reminder you glance at his phone then at him “I don’t even want to look at you right now, we’ll talk about this later, I’ll let you get to your meeting” you glare at Harry once more before walking out slamming the door behind you as you walk back to your office you could hear Harry yelling clearly frustrated with himself.

You sigh sitting back in your office chair running your hands through your hair. You made very little progress for the afternoon. You didn’t hear from Harry at all for the rest of the work day. Thinking about the way you reacted you wanted to apologise to Harry for how you spoke to him and for overreacting. He was right, he was simply just trying to protect you and everyone else at Pleasing. But you also felt that Harry betrayed you, not being completely honest with you to begin with and you wanted answers.

You decided to take a quick break around 5pm and head out to grab Harry a gift. You found a little bear holding a heart it was the cheesiest of gifts, but you were hoping Harry would love it either way. You made it back to work heading up to Harry’s office you notice the lights were off. You sigh softly knowing that meant he had gone home; you make your way back to your office and open the door to find Harry sitting on the couch working on his laptop.

“Hi” you say quietly Harry looks up “Hey” he gives you a small smile “I thought you’d left” you say softly “I thought you would have gone too” he responds closing his laptop pushing it to one side “should we talk?” He asks. You nod sitting down next to him “I want to apologise for how I spoke to you and how I treated you today Harry, I wasn’t fair on you I overreacted and treated you like crap, I’m so sorry H, you were just trying to do right by me and the company” you start before sighing a little “But that doesn’t take away from the fact that you hid things from me I just want to understand why Harry” He reaches over taking your hand in his “I’m sorry too, I wasn’t honest with you when I should have been and I used our personal relationship against you and for that I’m so sorry sweetheart. Honestly, I don’t know why I didn’t tell you, I thought by not telling you I was saving you some stress, but obviously I was wrong” You couldn’t help but smile giving Harry’s hand a squeeze “Did you just admit that you were wrong?” you ask smirking a little, Harry lets out a huff looking at your hands “I guess I did” he chuckles “Full disclosure from now on?” you ask. Harry nods as you smile pulling the bear out of its gift bag “I got you this, to say sorry” you giggle a little handing it to Harry. He smiles widely chuckling “I love it! Thank you so much” he looks down at it playing with its tiny limbs before looking back at you.

“I hate it when we fight” he whispers softly you look down at your hands before looking back up at Harry “me too, I don’t want to fight with you, ever” Harry shuffles closer pulling you into him “In saying all that though, I would love for us to talk about…well us” you smile a little into his shoulder “I actually think that’s a great idea” you blush a little “so…are either of us seeing anyone else?” You ask looking up at him Harry shakes his head “you?” He asks. You shake your head in response “are you looking for something long term?” You ask Harry rests his chin to your head trying to hide his smile before nodding a little “yeah, I’d like to settle down soon” you bite your lip softly now trying to hold in your own smile before Harry speaks up again.

“Do you think we can manage to work together and be in a relationship?” He asks looking over at you briefly. You think about it for a moment before nodding “I think it would take some boundaries and some discipline on both ends for us to leave work on time and leave work at work but I think we could do it.” Harry pulls your hand to his lips pecking it softly “so…” he starts “where do we go from here?” He asks you lean over kissing his cheek softly “well we talked about going on a date, we could start there?” You ask. Harry nods pulling you into his chest relaxing back into the couch “that sounds perfect, are you free this weekend?” He asks you giggle a little nodding “yeah I’m free” you smile “then it’s a date” he smiles kissing your head.

Harry leans down connecting your lips to his in a needy kiss which soon turned heated. He grips your waist as one of your hands comes to rest in his hair pulling him closer to you until your back was pushed into the couch your legs either side of Harry’s hips, your skirt halfway up your thighs. He made out with you gently before slowly pulling away moving his way down your neck leaving a few dainty kisses before licking and sucking at a few spots causing you to pant trying to hold in a moan as you felt a throb between your legs. Harry was clearly enjoying himself; he was worshipping any part of you he could reach and rubbing his own rock-hard member against your leg. He pulls away abruptly pulling you up with him until you were in his lap “I don’t want us to have sex for the first time here” he pants a little trying to catch his own breath “believe me, I want you more than anything right now, but this isn’t the place” he whispers before leaning in to kiss your lips seemingly not being able to keep himself away from you.

You smile against his lips your fingers grazing across his chiselled jaw “you’ve got to wrapped around your finger Styles, we could be anywhere and I’d be fine with it as long as it’s you” you whisper softly pecking his lips “but I think your right, kind of goes against the boundaries at work if we have sex…at work” Harry chuckles a little “well, why don’t we go on that date now? For the weekend? I kind of owe you a few dates by now” Harry smiles kissing your sternum through your blouse “what did you have in mind?” You ask kissing Harry’s head softly massaging the back of his neck “I have a house about an hour’s drive from London, we could just stay there for the weekend give ourselves a break, enjoy each other’s company and go on a proper date while we’re there? Have as much sex as we want” He winks, you were about to respond when your phone rang.

Sighing softly, you see it’s your neighbour “that’s weird, she doesn’t call unless somethings wrong” you grab your phone “Hey Tessa, is everything ok?” You ask sitting up a little. “Hey…umm I just wanted to let you know there’s some guy out the front of the building asking for you, he seems a bit….odd?” Her voice filled with concern your brows crease and you glance at Harry “that’s weird, I’m at work do you think you could send me a photo?” You ask putting your phone on speaker for Harry to hear too. You hear her rustling around her apartment before your phone buzzes with a photo “oh my god” you sigh, “it’s Luke” you say looking at Harry showing him the photo. You see his demeanour change in an instant, his jaw clenched as he gets up from the couch grabbing his own phone, within seconds he was on the phone to the police “we’ll handle it Tessa, just don’t say anything and keep an eye out for the police, ok? Thanks so much for letting me know” you say softly before hanging up.

You look up at Harry who was pacing the room “y’ok?” You ask softly he shakes his head looking at you “that settlement was supposed to keep him away, that’s why I did it” Harry sighs sitting next to you “I just want you to be safe” he says taking your hands. “H, I am safe, you punched that same guy for me to keep me safe if it weren’t for you God only knows what would have happened, let’s just head away for the weekend and hope that this all just blows over ok?” You say softly standing up pulling Harry with you.

He sighs kissing your head softly “Y’know, if we spend the entire weekend together I may not want you to ever leave” a small smirk plays on Harry’s lips, you giggle a little “I think I would be ok with that” smiling up at him “gotta take me to dinner first though” you wink, Harry chuckles leaning down pecking your lips softly “y’weird….but adorable” Harry smiles “c’mon we should get going, can we go to your place first then I’ll drive us from there? So, I know your safe?” He asks softly you smile up at him and nod “of course H, I’d like that” you give him a reassuring smile before packing your desk up for the weekend.

Harry holdse his hand out to you which you gladly take. He pulls your hand to his lips pecking it softly before swinging your hands a little on the way to the elevator “you’re really cute you know that?” You ask glancing at Harry. He just smirks pulling you into him kissing your temple “only for you” he mumbles into your hair. You blush resting your head on Harry’s shoulder waiting for the elevator.

*****

Heading to your car hand in hand Harry holds your waist as you find your keys to unlock your car. He opened the door for you and smiles a little “I’ll be right behind you” he says softly “thank you” you whisper softly you look up at Harry briefly before pulling him in for a kiss you felt Harry smile on your lips his hands moving to your waist. He very slowly pulls away and pecks your lips a few times “I’ll see you at your place, ok?” He whispers softly you nod getting into your car. Harry waits until you had your seatbelt on before closing your door for you jogging over to his own car climbing in.

You make your way to your apartment parking your car in your parking spot Harry parking out the front. You walk out to meet him to walk up to your apartment together when you see him talking to one of the officers that had arrived at your apartment building. He smiles at you thanking the officer making his way towards you “He was gone by the time they got here, building manager scared him off” you sigh a little “how fitting” you say softly “the officers want to investigate further, I’ve passed on what we need to” he says softly, you look up at Harry a little surprised “full disclosure” he smiles walking up to your apartment.

**********

Harry sits on your bed and waits patiently as you pack a bag for the weekend, he smiles seeing you sneak in some lingerie sets “I like your thinking” Harry smirks standing moving toward you wrapping his arms around your waist kissing your cheek, you giggle a little leaning into his chest “what else should I pack?” You ask softly “what did you have planned for the weekend?” You continue resting your hands on Harry’s. He places a few pecks to your neck “I think you should pack this dress” Harry says picking out a green midi dress you hum and smile “I love that dress” Harry takes it off the hanger and folds it into your bag for you.

Harry helps you to pack a few more things before you turn in his arms looking up at him playing with the hair at the back of his neck “Hi” you softly whisper. Harry just smiles resting his forehead to yours. He leaned in to connect his lips to yours when his phone began to ring. He sighs softly “it’ll be Gemma” he says kissing your forehead instead you giggle a little “take it” you smile pecking Harry’s lips “I’ll finish packing.”

Harry moved back to sit on your bed talking to Gemma for a while, you finished up packing your bag and came back to Harry in your room. He was laying on his back his phone on speaker talking to Gemma. You smile a little at him trying to be quiet “So according to Mum you have a girlfriend” she says almost confronting her little brother for not telling her. “Who’s mum been talking to?” Harry asks with a shy chuckle “is it true?” Gemma asks Harry stews on Gemma’s words for a moment looking at you “we’re still getting to know each other properly; we haven’t really labelled anything yet” Harry says softly smiling Gemma goes silent for a moment “oh my god your with her right now aren’t you?” She asks both you and Harry laugh softly “Harry! Why didn’t you tell me?!” Harry let’s out a belly laugh, something you loved hearing from him, he glances at you smiling “why does it matter? We’re you going to bag Y/n out?” Gemma gasps “wait!.is this the same Y/N that you just promoted?! She’s a lawyer, right?” Gemma asks, “Mum really does keep tabs on me doesn’t she?” Harry smirks a little as you lay next to him on your chest, resting your chin in your hands “but yes, you are correct” he chimes glancing at you moving to pushing your hair behind your ear “Harry she’s stunning!” Gemma exclaims “I’ve seen photos of her! She’s gorgeous and got an amazing reputation!” Harry just chuckles lightly smiling at you “Gem you know she can hear you, you’re on speaker” Harry smirks you giggle lightly taking Harry’s hand in yours squeezing it softly signally that you were getting up. You head to the bathroom packing a few other bits and pieces leaving Harry on the phone to Gemma.

Harry lays back into your bed engulfed in the conversation with Gemma, Harry sighs softly “what is it H?” Gemma asks hearing her brother sigh “uh nothing just tired” he says lying through his teeth “c’mon Harry, that’s never worked with me it’s not going to start now” Harry sighs again “you’re too good at reading me considering you only see me a few times a year” he huffs “please don’t tell Mum…Y/N and I have had a bit of a rough start, things have gone wrong even now we haven’t been on a proper date, I’m just worried we’ll go to fast and muck up, I don’t know how we’ll go working together if we’re together, we’ve already had a hiccup there, I’m just anxious and scared I guess” Harry admits

“Harry” Gemma groans a little “if she’s put up with you up to this point then I think you’ll be ok, set some boundaries, talk about it, make sure you leave work at work, take Michael and I as an example, we take regular breaks from work and head away together so we don’t get disconnected because we’re both so busy, maybe try that? Even though we don’t work together we still bring a lot of our work home, it takes a toll” She suggests “but Harry, if things are quick and a little unconventional maybe that’s a good thing, maybe that’s just what works for you both, have you spoken to Y/N about it?” Gemma asks concern in her voice “not really, I’m not sure how to bring it up, we’re heading away for the weekend I just want things to go smoothly” Harry sighs “H, you have to talk to her, you know that’s the only way you’ll work out what you both want, I really like the sound of this girl, I’d love to meet her but you need to work things out on your end first” Harry just nods to himself “ok, I’ll work it out…this weekend” he says softly “thank you Gem” he says softly sitting up a little. “You’ll be ok Harry, just be honest with her”.

****

Driving to Harry’s place with him he stayed relatively quiet, but his hand didn’t leave your body the entire time. You glance over at him for a moment seeing him seemingly deep in his own thoughts “Harry” you whisper softly squeezing his hand bringing him back “yeah” he says glancing at you looking a little startled “y’ok?” You ask as his thumb rubs over your thigh lightly. He nods a little humming.

You raise an eyebrow glaring at him “c’mon H I didn’t come down in the last shower, you can talk to me Y’know” he sighs a little adjusting his grip on the steering wheel “just talking to Gemma tonight, hearing her so excited about you, sort of scared me a little, but in a…good way? I want to do everything to make sure we work sort of scared” you couldn’t help but pout a little “Harry, that’s the sweetest thing I’ve ever heard” you smile leaning over kissing his cheek softly “I want us to work too, I think we can make it work” you smile softly.

Harry soon pulls into the drive of his country home you look around adoring the green lawns that were beginning to look on the longer side and the surrounding gardens, it had a homely feel to it. “This is beautiful Harry” you say softly smiling he looks over at you not saying a thing you turn to him when he still hadn’t said anything a few minutes later to see him already looking at you smiling “c’mere” he whispers softly leaning over catching your lips in a sweet kiss “I promise I’ll do anything to make sure this works, and that your happy” he mumbles on your lips you smile against them “I am happy H, you don’t have to worry about that” you smile pecking his lips several times before slowly pulling away.

*****

The next morning Harry was up and out of bed relatively early, you get up heading out to the living room seeing Harry sitting on the couch in his boxers, glasses on laptop in front of him. You lean over the top of the couch placing your hands on Harry’s shoulders “Baby” you say softly kissing his cheek he hums looking up at you “good morning” he smiles moving to look up at you pecking your lips “good morning” you mumble back on his lips “it hasn’t even been 24 hours and you’re working H” you sigh softly hugging him a little. “I know…something came up I had to look at it, I might need my COO and best lawyers help” he groans a little pouting up at you.

“Has the CEO made his COO some coffee?” You ask softly. Harry nods “you’re the best babe” you smile kissing his cheek. You quickly grab a cup of coffee before grabbing your own laptop sitting next to Harry “ok, this is a little weird, you’re in boxers and I’m in one of your t-shirts and my underwear and were working” you giggle softly Harry leans over kissing your cheek “is it weirder that seeing you like this turns me on?” Harry asks smirking. You push his chest a little “you’re a goose…c’mon let’s get this done…but can we make a deal, after this no more for the weekend, ok? We’re supposed to be spending time together” you say softly but sternly.

Harry nods, “no more work for the rest of the weekend I promise” he says squeezing your knee softly. You help Harry get through the work that he needed to do and managed to knock it over in half the time by 10am both you and Harry had put your phones away and were sitting in the sunroom enjoying breakfast together. “Y’know I could get used to this” he smiles towards you “spending more time with you” Harry moves to pull you into his lap causing you to giggle. “I’m sorry about this morning” Harry says softly rubbing his hands over your back. You shake your head “Don’t apologise H, it’s work we have to do it….and I like spending time with you too”

“I like it here, it’s peaceful” you say softly leaning down placing soft kisses to Harry’s neck he hums smiling “let’s make a deal” he starts “from now on, our weekends are going to be spent here….this is kind of hard for me…” he sighs softly “I want us to have a healthy relationship, we haven’t done things the most conventional way but I love how things are going…and I want things to keep going” Harry smiles up at you wrapping his arms around you until your breasts were flush with his chest.

“Me too” you smile connecting your lips to Harry’s in a needy kiss. His hands soon move up into your shirt his hands rubbing up and down the skin of your back as his mouth barely breaks contact with yours. You very slowly pull away pecking his lips a few times “take me upstairs H” you whisper. Harry’s eyes shoot up to look at you trying to hold back his smile “You’re sure? You’re ready?” He asks softly, you nod “I feel safe with you Harry” you respond pushing some curls from his face kissing his lips softly, you feel him smile against you “let me take care of you?” Harry hums on your lips. You nod smiling against him. His hands move to the back of your thighs standing up lifting you with him. You giggle against his lips as Harry carried you upstairs to the master bedroom laying you on the bed his hands gripping your waist.

Harry pulls away looking at you grinning, sighing happily “I’m so lucky” he whispers causing you to smile biting your lip softly “I think we’re both lucky” you say softly running your hands down Harry’s back connecting your lips back to his, he hums softly his hands running up your sides under your top. You shudder a little at Harry’s cold fingers making contact with your skin but soon settle into his touch as his lips find the skin on your neck.

You let out a quiet moan, your lips parting, your own hands coming to rest in Harry’s hair. He groans against your skin as you tug at his curls “Harry” you pant trying to redirect his attention he pulls away for a moment “do you want me to stop?” He asks softly instantly concerned he was going too fast. You shake your head “no no no…” you giggle a little “please don’t stop” you smile softly “I just wanted to kiss you” you explain. Harry breaks out into a smile “you couldn’t be more perfect if you tried Angel” you blush hiding your face in Harry’s neck pecking it softly.

Harry kisses from one cheek across your nose before nestling his lips to yours pecking them a few times “can I take this off?” He asks softly tugging on the end of his shirt that was adorning your torso. You nod biting your lips softly. Harry slowly shimmies his t-shirt over your head, throwing it to one side he draws his attention back to you letting out a satisfied sigh his lips breaking into a smile. He leans down kissing you softly holding your waist as your arms wrap around Harry’s shoulders, your legs entangling with his pushing his hips down into your own so you could feel his cloth covered bludge against your centre.

You moan into Harry’s mouth freeing one of your hands to push at the waistband of his boxers. Not quite being able to reach, your kisses begin to get messier and your mind starts to race a little at the prospect of having Harry between your legs. Harry slowly pulls away noticing the change in your demeanour just in the speed of your actions. “Hey…” he whispers softly placing his hand on yours at his waistband before resting his forehead to yours “y’ok?” He asks you nod a little as Harry moves to place a kiss to the crease in your forehead “just take a breath m’love, I’ve got all the time in the world for you, want to savour it” Harry whispers causing you to relax a little and open your eyes looking up at him your hands move to the stubble on his cheeks “thank you” you whisper before continuing “I just want this to be perfect” you mumble a little embarrassed at your admission.

Harry smiles widely “Y/N….” He starts, hovering over you taking your hands in his “you are perfect, this is perfect…. I couldn’t ask for anything better with you here and now” you melt under Harry’s touch in combination with his words “you’re the sweetest man I’ve ever met” you whisper taking Harry’s lips between your own. Before long Harry was helping you to push down his boxers leaving him in a state of confident nudity, he begins to kiss down your neck and chest as you reach down giving him a few lazy pumps causing him to groan into your mouth gripping the outside of your thigh for him to gain better access to your drenched but still covered pussy.

“Is it ok? Can I take these off?” Harry asks as he thrusts himself up into your hand a little, your touch alone driving him wild. You nod letting his length go quickly shuffling yourself out of your panties tossing them to the side. Harry sits back on his heels for a moment admiring you in all your glory “that’s my girl” he almost mumbles to himself, he leans down kissing your lips in between words “I’m so…so….lucky….you’re stunning….my sweet girl” Harry couldn’t help but worship you it meant the world to him that you were even in bed with him considering the trauma from the last few months. It meant you trusted him and that the way you felt about one another went beyond the words you spoke.

You did trust him. More than anyone.

“I couldn’t ask for anyone better than you H” you smile pulling him back toward you pecking his lips a few times before simply smiling up at him giggling a little “what?” Harry smirks “have I got something on my face?” He winks causing you to giggle more you pull Harry to your chest causing him to fall a little more than expected, his tip grazing your slit causing you to gasp followed by a groan from Harry that was music to your ears.

He steadies himself placing a hand at the base of his hard cock pushing his tip through your folds as his tongue dances with your own. You moan softly as Harry nudged your entrance “sorry pet” he mumbles you simply shake your head “H I want you….please” you beg. “Say no more” Harry smirks pushing his tip into your entrance causing you both to moan at the relief you both felt. You relax your hips further giving Harry the best access possible gripping his biceps at the same time as Harry continues to slowly push into you until he bottoms out.

“I’m not going to last long babe” Harry pants a little “you feel incredible” he leans down kissing you messily you hum against Harry’s lips as he twitches inside of you “filling me up so good H” you sigh. Harry’s eyes meet yours filled with lust “so perfect” he whispers as he slowly begins to thrust into you ensuring he bottoms out with each thrust.

You pull his lips back to your own kissing him messily as his thrusts speed up, you moan into Harry’s mouth pushing at his chest a little “roll over H” you pant. Harry hums and grips your waist as he rolls onto his back helping you to nestle your legs either side of his hips. You lift yourself a little looking down at Harry a devilish grin adorning your lips as you give him a few lazy pumps. Harry rests an arm behind his head to be able to watch you and you guide Harry’s tip back inside your soft walls.

You let yourself adjust to this new angle with Harry for the first time. “Such a good girl for me” Harry moans softly helping you to lift your hips guiding you back down to grind against him “so good H” you sigh out your hands resting on his chest to support your movements. Before long you look down seeing Harry red in the face biting his bottom lip “H, what’s wrong?” You pant out as he thrusts up to meet your own movement knocking the breath out of you. “I don’t want to cum yet” he sighs gripping your waist sweat beading at his forehead you lean down next to his ear “let go Harry, fill me up” you whisper grinding your hips into Harry’s, the tip of his throbbing cock nestled against your g-spot causing your orgasm to rapidly approach.

Harry moves quickly to place you on your back once more hooking one of your legs around his hip using it as leverage to thrust into you harder “want me to fill you up baby? Didn’t know I got myself a dirty girl” he smirks pecking your lips. “You never asked” you moan as Harry groans at your words seemingly sending him over the edge. He holds onto you for a little while longer as his thrusts begin to become messy and uncoordinated “fucking cum in me H, fill me up, I’m all yours” you pant knowing exactly what you were doing to the poor man

Harry collapses onto the bed as he groans his hips also involuntarily thrusting into your as he climaxes. He pants against your skin peppering you with small kisses he moves his way down your chest, coming back to your lips “so good for me H” you smirk on his lips as he hums against you. Harry nestled himself inside you for a few minutes catching his breath, “Gunna let me clean you up?” Harry asks pulling away smirking down at you giving another quick, deep thrust causing you to gasp.

You nod a little biting your lip softly, Harry smirks kissing you briefly before kissing down your neck and chest, paying equal amounts of attention to each of your breasts, you moan softly your hands making their way to Harry’s hair. After a few minutes he moves himself further down your body placing soft kisses to both your hips before moving to nestle his head between your thighs, Harry looks up at you smirking as he wraps his arms under your thighs resting them on your hips to put him in full control.

“You look so gorgeous like this sweet girl, so needy for me” Harry groans kissing up your thigh. You could feel his warm breath against you as his cum was seeping out of you. You sigh squirming in Harry’s arms “your such a tease” you giggle a little suddenly feeling nervous the muscles in your legs tensing a little.

Harry rubs his hands up and down the outside of your thigh softly pecking the inside of your thigh “you ok pet?” Harry asks you nod a little “yeah…yeah, I’m ok” Harry sits up a little noticing your knees still shaking “talk to me sweetheart” he says softly moving back up to your torso resting this chin on your chest. You shrug a little “I’m just nervous I guess” you whisper looking down at Harry pushing his hair from his face “why?” Harry asks as his brows furrow “it’s just me” he says softly. You nod “I just got in my head a little that’s all” you force a smile Harry climbs back up your body kissing your forehead softly resting a hand on your cheek.

“This about the party?” Harry asks softly moving to lay next to you giving you his full attention “I think so, I didn’t expect it to get to me so bad” Harry pulls you to his chest wrapping an arm around you “I’m sorry” Harry whispers “I should have supported you more instead of pushing more work on you” you look up at Harry rolling onto your front to face him “actually I think it helped, I’d be a mess without you and my job, I should be thanking you Harry” Harry smiles leaning down kissing you softly “we can go as fast…or as slow…as you want sweetheart, but promise me you’ll talk to me if things get too much? My priority is you being ok Y/N, I want you more than anything else” he smiles resting his forehead to yours “ok?” He asks.

You sniffle pecking Harry’s lips “ok” you whisper looking up at him with tears in your eyes. He pulls you closer wrapping his arms around you. You stay wrapped in Harry’s arms for a while as you calm down “Y’know if you hadn’t gotten mad at me in the financials meeting goodness knows where we would be” Harry comments smirking a little at you. You look up at him giggling “you we’re being so annoying that day” you laugh resting your hand across Harry’s chest tracing his tattoos. Harry places a kiss to your temple “feel like a shower sweetheart?” Harry asks “mmm sounds amazing” you smile, you lean over placing your lips on Harry’s before pulling yourself out of the comfortable bed.

“How often to do you come up here?” You ask Harry as he leads you to the bathroom, his hands on your waist. “I try to come up on a regular basis to clear my head, I don’t get here often enough” Harry smiles looking up at the pair of you in the bathroom mirror “we look cute like this” Harry comments kissing your cheek “wait, stay there for a minute” Harry says letting your waist go running back to the bedroom coming back a few seconds later with a Polaroid camera.

“What are you doing H” you giggle “just wait and see it’ll be cute I promise” he chuckles nudging you a little closer to the countertop so that your naked bottom half couldn’t be seen in the photograph. Harry takes his other arm placing it across your breasts to cover them, your hands coming to rest on Harry’s forearm his other free hand holding the camera to his eye squinting a little.

Harry snaps the photo with you snuggled up into his chest. He kisses your cheek softly letting you go “shower while we wait?” Harry asks. You nod kissing his cheek. Harry slowly pulls himself away from you turning the shower on grabbing some fresh towels out. He steps under the stream of water turning to face you holding his hand out “c’mon we’ll get you nice and warm pet” you giggle a little at Harry’s statement stepping in beside him letting the water run over your body humming softly Harry wraps his arms around you letting the water run over you both “this is nice” Harry sighs out “just spending time with you” he smiles softly.

You stay in each others arms for a while Harry’s hands running up and down your back after a few minutes of silence Harry speaks up “how would you feel about going to dinner tonight?” He asks you look up at him and blush softly “I’d love to Harry” you smile up at him pecking his lips “then it’s a date” Harry smirks on your lips. You spend longer than expected in the shower washing Harry’s hair who then returned the favour kneeling in front of you lathering you up before kissing up your thigh before glancing up to meet your gaze “y’ok?” He asks running his hands up the outside of your thigh, you nod biting your lip softly nestling yourself against the shower wall.

Harry begins to kiss up your thigh to your pelvis placing soft kisses across the top of your pelvic bone. He glances up once more ensuring you were ok to see you already looking at him in awe “c’mere gorgeous” Harry says just loud enough for you to hear. He pulls your hips a little closer to him before hooking one of your legs over his shoulder kissing the inside of your thigh a few more times before moving his thumb up to rub slow circles to your clit.

You moan softly pushing your hips out towards Harry enabling him better access, he smirks swiping his thumb over your entrance. Harry pulls his hand away from you causing you to whimper “why’d you stop?” You pant rubbing your thumb across Harry’s cheek the loss of contact turning you on more, you could feel yourself throbbing through the heat the warm water was providing. “Who said I was stopping” Harry smirks before wrapping his lips around your clit his tongue going to work. You gasp throwing your head back your hand previously resting on Harry’s cheek moving to his hair.

Harry’s hands move up the back of your thighs to your ass squeezing pulling you further onto his mouth. You couldn’t believe how good Harry’s tongue felt against you. You could feel your wetness beginning to seep down the inside of your thigh to which Harry also noticed, soon cleaning it up. “You taste so good babe” Harry mumbles under you moving to pay close attention to your clit, two of his fingers replacing his previous position at your entrance.

Harry closely guides his two slender fingers inside you twisting and curling them as he advanced them forwards. You felt your knees becoming weak your breathing picking up “Harry….” You sigh out “so good to me” you tug at his curls as the movements from his hand speed up and deepen causing you to drop your hips a little wanting to feel every inch of what Harry was doing to you. “Don’t stop H please” you beg, you could feel your orgasm building steadily.

You could feel Harry smirking against you his hot breath against your clit sending chills up your spine “I just said don’t stop” you whine he chuckles a little “sorry gorgeous” he mumbles bringing a hand back to rub circles against your clit again “just love seeing you so needy for me” he whispers kissing your thigh.

After a few minutes Harry replaces his thumb with his tongue and returns his two fingers deep inside of you, the throbbing of your clit against Harry’s tongue driving you wild. “Harry…” you moan out your eyes closing as your hands move to cup your breasts pinching at your nipples adding to your stimulation. You feel a knot growing in your stomach, you tug on Harry’s hair keeping his as close to your pussy as possible “fuck Harry, need to cum” you sigh Harry let’s go of your clit with a pop “show me what you can do sweet girl” Harry says softly thrusting his fingers into your harder you shudder a little enjoying how Harry was taking you, you go to reach down to rub your own clit before Harry stops you “I think that’s my job babe” he smirks up at you before going back to work on you.

You pull and tug at Harry’s hair wanting him as close as possible as your orgasm fast approaches, Harry’s fingers fucking you better than anyone before, his mouth working magic against you, within minutes your toes were curling your pussy pulsing around Harry’s fingers as you try to squirm away at the overstimulation. Harry laps at your clit once more before pulling away kissing your thighs and back up your torso as he slowly removed his fingers, he stands wrapping his arms around your waist “you did so good for me Y/N” he whispers softly you hum before connecting your lips to Harry’s in response.

Making it out of the shower Harry wraps you in a towel kissing your temple softly you smile pecking his lips “thank you” you whisper softly tucking the towel in on itself to keep it around you. You glance over at the Polaroid still sitting on the counter and smile picking it up “we’re cute even when we’re naked” you comment flashing the picture towards Harry. He chuckles wrapping his towel around his waist coming towards you “we are pretty cute aren’t we” he smiles as he looks at the imagine before him “plenty more of these to come….” he says looking at you “maybe with more clothes” he winks pecking your lips “hey, I’ve got an idea” Harry smiles “every date, every event, every holiday, every milestone, we take a Polaroid together?” Harry asks the joy evident in his eyes.

You giggle biting your lip “I love that Harry, it’s so sweet” you peck his lips “and hey, if things go well, we’ll have lots of memories to look back at together when we’re old and wrinkly” Harry jokes. You shove his chest a little giggling at him “you’re a goof” you smile before heading out to get dressed.

*****

Harry was about to walk back into the bathroom looking for his cologne when he sees you standing in front of the mirror applying your lipstick. He leans against the door frame out of eye line for a while just admiring you. He was used to seeing you looking good…but never this good.

In that moment Harry didn’t want to be anywhere else but here admiring you.

He snuck his phone from his pocket snapping a photo of you, all dressed up, looking as beautiful as ever. You snap your head around at the sight of flash and glare at him, “What are you up to Styles?” You ask pursing your lips together before putting your lipstick away. “Just admiring my girl” he smiles shoving his phone back into his pocket. You giggle a little “oh really? Your girl, is it?” You smirk teasing him. “I hope so…. you look beautiful Y/N” Harry smiles leaning down to kiss your forehead, “thank you H, you look so handsome” you smile pecking his lips before wiping the little bit of red lipstick from his bottom lip.

You were about to grab you coat ready to leave when Harry wrapped his arms around you from behind “you forgetting something?” He whispers kissing your cheek “every date” you giggle a little “how could I have forgotten already” you say softly leaning into Harry’s hold. Harry walks you to the full-length mirror in the hall steadying you both for the photo “wait, can I take it H?” You ask softly looking up at him, “of course babe” Harry hands you the camera and gets comfortable his hands on your waist before you take the photo. “Ready for our first date?” You ask looking up at Harry who was smiling down at you “couldn’t be more ready” he says softly.

Dinner went without a hitch in fact the entire weekend went without a hitch. By the time you got to your apartment on Sunday night you didn’t want to go inside after spending the weekend with Harry. You glance at Harry from the passenger seat “So,” Harry starts “first date and weekend away a success?” He asks you pout a little at him “so successful I don’t really want it to end” you say softly before looking down at your hands. Harry reached over one of his hands covering both of yours with ease “me either” he sighs softly “do you think….do you think dating and working together we’ll get sick of each other?” Harry asks. You shake your head “honestly, if you had asked me that a few weeks ago I probably would have said yes, but now, no, I don’t think we will, we just have to keep on top of things, keep our promises” you smile glancing at Harry again.

“I better let you get home it’s late, see you tomorrow?” You ask turning your body a little in your seat. Harry nods squeezing your hands “always, take your time coming in tomorrow, your boss works you too hard” Harry winks causing you to giggle “you’re too good to me Y’know that Harry” Harry’s brows crease and he shakes his head “it’s the least I can do pet, gotta look after my COO and girlfriend” he smirks. You felt the heat rise in your cheeks.

It was the first time Harry had labelled anything to do with your relationship and it felt nice, to be appreciated as his COO and as his girlfriend. “Ohhh, did Mr Harry Styles just label our relationship?” You ask winking at him. He chuckles a little breaking out in a grin “I was hoping you would catch that, is it ok?” He asks you giggle leaning over kissing Harry passionately “I love it H” you mumble against his lips your hand moving to his hair. Harry couldn’t hold his smile in. He cups your cheeks kissing you again “I’m glad” he says softly against your lips. “Now I really don’t want to go” Harry sighs softly. You squeeze his hands “so don’t” you whisper trying to hold in your smirk. “You really want to put up with me for another night?” Harry asks resting his forehead to yours, “yes please H” you smile pecking his lips.

Harry parks his car next to yours and helps you to carry your things inside hand in hand. You get settled and unpack your bags while Harry was in the shower. You get changed into some cotton pyjamas and grab your laptop to check over your emails before heading back to work in the morning. As soon as you open your emails your met with at least 20 unread urgent emails.

“Shit” you mumble noticing at least four of them are lawsuits and the rest were emails from the legal team with questions you get up heading towards the study leaving Harry to shower in peace. You work through printing off the lawsuits first when you hear Harry down the hall calling out to you “babe? Where are you?” He soon appears at the study door “hey, what are you doing it’s late pet” Harry says his towel still around his waist. You sigh softly “you need to look at all this” you say softly “there’s at least 4 lawsuits here, I need to start this tonight H” he kisses your temple softly before looking at the emails over your shoulder “shit” he sighs softly “how much are we looking at losing?” Harry asks grabbing some papers off the printer for you “If I have it my way it’ll be under a million, total…I’ll work through most of them tonight so they can be dealt with first thing in the morning” Harry rubs your back softly “is there anything I can do to help?” He asks, “help me read through them?” You ask softly Harry nods “of course babe, let me find some clothes” he kisses your head softly before rushing off soon returning with sweat pants on his legs.

You spent the most part of the night working your way through terms and setting out negotiation terms for the lawsuits for you to deal with in the morning with the companies in question. You finally crawl into bed around 3:30 Monday morning next to an already sleeping Harry. You woke to the sound of your alarm a mere three hours later, tangled in Harry’s arms you sigh to yourself turning your alarm off rolling over to face Harry who was already looking at you with a smirk on his face “go back to sleep” Harry whispers softly kissing into your hair. You groan a little shaking your head “no it’s ok H, if I sit on these suits for too long they’ll just get worse” you reach up kissing Harry’s cheek softly “thank you though” you smile a little as you were about to get up. Harry’s grabs your waist “no” he whines pulling you back to his chest “I’m serious, please go back to sleep even for an hour babe. I’ll get you some breakfast and make some coffee while you get some more sleep, ok?” Harry says softly placing a kiss to your forehead.

You smile a little already fighting sleep again, “thank you H” you whisper moving to place your lips on his. You feel him smile against you as he squeezes your waist “or, we could get breakfast on the way to work?” You mumble against his lips. Harry chuckles softly “that sounds perfect” he mumbles. You were soon fast asleep and woke up almost two hours later to an empty bed you sit up and look around for Harry. Soon sliding out of bed seeing the time “Harry?” You call out “in the study pet” he calls back you make your way down the hall to the study and stand in the doorway in your pyjamas “what are you doing H?” You ask softly as Harry stands moving towards you “I wanted to let you sleep, I figured I could work from here” he smiles reaching for your waist.

“You’re too good to me H” you smile wrapping your arms around him pecking his lips “I’ll get ready so we can head in?” You ask as Harry’s hands run down your back “sounds perfect” he smiles kissing you once more. You unwrap yourself from Harry’s arms and head towards the bathroom having the quickest shower of your life getting dressed putting on light makeup before heading out with Harry. 

*****

Arriving to work you and Harry head off in separate directions, him to get some breakfast for you both and you to start dealing with the lawsuits. Walking into your office, like it was a weekly ritual, Joel was sitting at your desk “Hey you” you chime giving him a brief side hug “Hey to you too” Joel chuckles a little “this is a woman with a different attitude...how was your weekend?” he asks, you glare at him a little placing your bag down grabbing a few things placing them on your desk as there was a knock on the door. “Come in” you call out Harry’s assistant shuffles in her face obscured by a large vase of roses “sorry to interrupt, these came for you” she says softly setting them on your desk. You thank her before she walks out again closing the door behind her. “That question seems redundant” Joel chuckles “did you milk the poor man dry?” you jaw drops glaring at Joel “You can’t say that” you laugh taking the card from the roses opening it smiling to yourself. 

‘Thank you for the best first date ever, all my love, H xxx’

You tuck the card away in your purse wanting to keep it, you set the vase to one side of your desk so you could see Joel who was already smiling at you “what?” You ask softly as Joel shakes his head “you look happy” he smiles “I’ve never seen you like this…it suits you, whatever you and the CEO are doing, it looks good on you” he chuckles a little. You couldn’t help but blush “I am, Harry is amazing, we’ve been through so much in such a short time things feel a little unconventional but in a good way, if that makes sense” you say softly sitting down. Joel smiles “it does make sense, I’m glad you two are happy, it takes some stress off you both” he pauses for a moment “some of us were thinking of having work Christmas drinks the end of this week, and we would love for you and Harry to be there” he chimes “of course your both quite boring now that your committed to one another but your still kind of fun” Joel jokes his usual sass coming back.

You sit chatting for a little while longer and work through some of the lawsuits from the night before at the same time when Harry knocks and let’s himself in “Hey I got breakfast and coffee” he says before seeing Joel “hey mate how are you?” Harry asks smiling in Joel’s direction “I didn’t know you were popping in otherwise I would have got you a coffee” Harry makes his way to you kissing your cheek lightly “want me to leave you two be?” Harry asks softly. Joel begins to shake his head “no no no don’t do that, I’ve got a meeting in twenty minutes anyway so I’ll head out but…this” Joel says motioning between you and Harry “adorable….oh and Harry, drinks this weekend, Christmas drinks in fact, we would love to see you and Miss independent there” Harry chuckles softly “I’d love to be there, last time was great” he smiles.

You let Harry and Joel chat for a while before Joel heads off to his office, Harry sets himself in the seat across from you he looks at your roses trying to hide his smile “who’s sending roses to my beautiful girl?” He asks biting his lip “this very handsome businessman, I think you know him, he’s the CEO” you wink “thank you for the flowers H, they’re beautiful, you didn’t have to” you smile. Harry reaches for your hand across your desk “I wanted to” Harry starts “I’m glad you like them” he smiles kissing your knuckles. “I have a meeting in an hour, want some help with the lawsuits until I have to go?” He asks softly, you shake your head “no I think I should be ok babe; I’ll call you if anything else comes up though” you say softly standing walking around your desk to sit in Harry’s lap. “I sent everything off for each suit before I came to bed this morning, haven’t heard back from anyone yet, we’ve got a lunch meeting today too don’t forget” you say wrapping your arms around Harry kissing his cheek.

He hums his arms snaking around your waist “you’ve got a manufacturing tour with some of the investors straight after that lunch meeting too” Harry says softly pushing some hair from your face, you lean into his touch a little “hopefully it’ll be a smooth day and these companies will just settle” you sigh as Harry pulls you into an embrace your head resting on his shoulder “you sure you’re not too tired babe?” He asks kissing your hair. You giggle a little playing with the rings on his fingers “I’ll be ok H, I promise, we both know I’ve done worse” Harry chuckles a little “I’d be so lost without you here” he says softly kissing your head again before his phone begins to vibrate, he sighs softly. “I better take it” he says rubbing your thigh with his spare hand “see you at the lunch meeting love” he smiles. You quickly slide off Harry’s lap he retrieves his phone and answered the call heading off to his office blowing you a kiss on the way out.

*****

The week went relatively smoothly, you and Harry and managed to leave on time every night and had so far only spent one night apart for the week. You were getting ready to head out to drinks at Harry’s keeping things casual in jeans and a white knit, accompanied by a coat and scarf, the chill in the London air making itself well known.

You make your way to Harry’s kitchen to grab your bag, your boots chiming against the tiled floors. You find Harry already waiting for you himself in jeans and a sweater a navy coat wrapped around his shoulders “I love that sweater” you smile walking up to him standing between his legs as his hands move to hold your waist moving himself closer to the edge of the kitchen stool. “Thank you, you look gorgeous as usual love” Harry says kissing your nose, you blush a little and smile “thank you H” you whisper softly before connecting your lips to his. Harry runs his hands up and down your back before pulling away slowly “you going to be warm enough?” He asks “it’s supposed to snow tonight” he whispers resting his forehead to yours. You giggle and peck his lips “I’ll be warm enough I promise” you smile.

You keep the Polaroid tradition going before heading out to an Uber that Harry had ordered arriving for drinks a few minutes late because of Christmas traffic. Heading in you find the usual work group and their partners. You sit down next to Harry after greeting everyone else. Harry wraps an arm around you tracing your spine over your jumper. You get a few rounds deep and notice how tipsy Joel really is “Hey, Joel!” You call out to him over the table “did you pregame?” You ask laughing a little. Joel smirks giggling to himself as he hiccups “maybe just a little bit…. anyone else jealous of these two? They’re fucking adorable!” he groans glaring at you. You giggle a little glancing up at Harry kissing his cheek.

Before long Kim speaks up “have you guys worked out what you’re doing yet? Last time we did this you were just ‘hanging out’ but your too smitten for that” she questions seemingly asking the question everyone was thinking as all the other smaller conversations around the table stop and attention is drawn to you and Harry. He chuckles softly “I think we were lying to ourselves about what we were doing a little bit because everything had been so busy we hadn’t had a chance to really talk about it but we decided we’d give a proper relationship a go and see what happens” he smiles his gaze burning into you as he admires what was finally his.

“She even spent the weekend at Harry’s actual house, not just the apartment in London!” Joel yells excitedly in his intoxicated state “you what?!” The girls were astounded that you’d taken a step like that with Harry and not said anything “aaand Harry sent her flowers on Monday morning, while I was in her office” Joel pipes up again with all the sass he could muster.

Harry just chuckles burying his face into your neck placing some chaste kisses above your collarbone “who knew we were the hot new couple at Pleasing” he whispers kissing just below your ear you hum softly giggling a little. “Well, I’m not great at keeping my hands off you at work” you whisper placing your hand on Harry’s knee “likewise” Harry says softly into your ear kissing into your hair before redirecting his attention to the conversation.

After a little while Joel begins egging Harry on into drinking with him. You watch them both in between conversation as Harry begins to come visibly tipsy with everything that Joel was feeding into him. You had slowed down and swapped to soda to ensure at least one of you would be able to navigate a way home. As you sobered up Harry and Joel began ordering shots after the first few rounds to lean over to Harry kissing his cheek, “I’m going to head to the bathroom babe” you say softly before standing giving Harry’s shoulder a squeeze on the way past.

On your way back over notice Joel had taken your seat next to Harry leaving you to sit across from him instead “what’s this?” You ask giggle sitting down in Joel’s spot “have I been demoted from girlfriend already?” You wink towards Harry who takes one of your hands across the table “I would never” he slurs placing a sloppy kiss to your knuckles.

Around 2am everyone starts to get ready to leave. Harry and Joel were as drunk as each other. You head out the front with Harry to wait for your Uber “you ok there?” You ask Harry as he wobbles next to you, one arm around your shoulder your arm around his torso helping him to balance. He giggles and nods his head swaying from side to side as he tried to kiss your cheek.

You somehow manage to get Harry into the Uber halfway through the ride back to your place Harry groans a little “this isn’t the way home” he says glancing out the window “we’re going to my place babe” Harry just hums “my favourite place” he says softly causing you to giggle kissing his head lightly. You arrive to your place and help and very lethargic Harry to bed before getting yourself ready as well. You slide into bed next to Harry who automatically snuggled up into you “feeling ok H?” You ask softly playing with his hair. He nods without saying anything kissing your jaw line, “thank you for looking after me” Harry mumbles softly into your skin in his drunken state before falling silent for a few minutes “Y/N” Harry grumbles squeezing your waist “I love you” he says softly as a few hiccups escape his lips.

You squeak a little at Harry’s admission not sure if he was being entirely truthful or if it was just drunken truth. You got so in your own head about it the next time you glanced down at Harry he was fast asleep drooling onto your shirt. You groan a little trying to pry him off you and turn him over you eventually succeed the full weight of Harry’s torso laying on the opposite side of the bed. You quietly get up and change your top before scooting back in wrapping your arms around Harry who curled up in your hold as the little spoon. You kiss the back of his neck a few times before drifting off yourself.

******

You woke reasonably early given the late night you roll over a little bumping Harry as you did. Shuffling around a little further you see he had kicked off the blankets and had a little bit of what was presumably vomit stuck to his lip. You sigh a little and kiss his head softly crawling out of bed heading to the kitchen to make yourself some coffee. Snuggling up on the couch you flick the TV on quietly trying your best to not wake Harry to your avail.

A mere hour later he had wandered out to the living area “morning” he grumbles still sounding a little congested from his slumber. You look up at him “good morning, y’ok? Did you throw up?” You ask more for your own sanity in if Harry had in fact not evacuated his stomach contents via his oral passageway you would feel better. He sits next to you blowing out a slow breath “I did, you were sound asleep didn’t want to wake you” he says resting his hand on your thigh. You let out a huff turning to Harry a little “H why didn’t you wake me? What if you’d passed out in the bathroom?” you rest your hand on his giving it a squeeze. He shrugs sighing a little “I’m sorry babe, I was silly enough to drink too much, I didn’t want to burden you” he says causing you to pout “Harry, no matter what, I will always be here to help you, it was good to see you enjoying yourself, you don’t get to do that enough” you start before pausing for a moment “Do you remember anything from when we got home last night?” You ask brushing some hair from his face.

Harry tries to hold in his smile “Did I say s’thing silly?” he asks going to lean in for a kiss before stopping himself “I brushed my teeth, I promise” he says causing you to giggle before pecking his lips leaning into his side as Harry wraps an arm around you kissing your head. “I don’t think it was silly at all, was just curious to if you remembered” you smile a little. Harry glances down at you rubbing your shoulder “y’mean if I remember telling you I love you?” you sit up a little looking at Harry mouth agape, “you cheeky shit” you laugh a little shoving his chest.

Harry pulls you into his lap so you were facing him “I mean it Y/N, I love you, not my finest moment telling you while I was drunk, but I needed to tell you, you make me so happy sweetheart and mean so much to me, I think we’re much better suited to one another than we would have cared to admit a few months ago” Harry says softly his hands rubbing the small of your back. 

You cup Harry’s cheeks resting your forehead to his. “I love you Harry, thank you for making me feel so safe, you’ve made me the happiest girl” you say leaning back a little to see Harry smiling widely, he pulls you into him hugging you tightly you giggle into his neck hugging him back before he slowly pulls away. You move to resume your previous position with your forehead against Harry’s before connecting your lips to his. After a few minutes Harry pulls away placing a few small kisses to your neck “should we take this party to your room?” he asks rubbing your hips. You giggle a little.

“Yes Sir”

Take me.

smutty, friends to lovers beachy Jamaican goodness

T/w: lots of unprotected sex and not much else

Harry Styles. Arguably one of the most talked about pop stars you had ever worked with and you were ok with that.

You had worked with him more than any of your other clients in the last six months. Harry appreciated your work as a writer and producer and even appreciated the smaller things you did for him like teaching him to re-string his guitar and set up a studio so he wouldn’t get feedback through his mics.

It was these little things that Harry appreciated you for that made you appreciate him, not only as an artist but as a human being. His self titled album was the first major project you had worked on so it was a learning curve for the both of you, which also meant a lot of late nights in the studio together sometimes working through the night if inspiration struck at a late hour.

The first few months working with Harry and his team were a little intimidating and to be honest his status alone intimidated you, considering you were in your early twenties with just enthusiasm and an eye for something interesting. Harry himself had stumbled across some low key demos you had produced just a year prior to starting to work with him and wanted you to lead his first solo album. So you did.

After the first few late nights and opening up to one another you and Harry had gotten quite close some things still weren’t spoken about like relationships and whether or not you were both single, it always felt like you were both holding back from one another a little. You would text on and off and Harry was quite fond of the filters on Snapchat which lead to some late nights at your home working on songs for Harry while he spent his evenings seeing if the filters would work on your dog Mish, to his absolute joy, they did.

Eventually you couldn’t take it anymore turning to Harry in your chair one weekend that you were at the studio together “tell me Harold…” you say interlocking your fingers across your torso leaning back in your chair a little, “what gives?” You ask causing him to turn and glance at your stance before turning back to the computer.

“What do you mean softy?” He asks smirking at his nickname for you, he often called you this on the account that you were a bit of a sook when it came to your job even just the slightest bit of raw emotion in a song and you were rendered to tears. He knew this thanks to Sign of the Times. You glare at him after the use of your nickname shaking your head “we spend most of our time either in the studio or at my place working, I’m just about certain that if you had a girlfriend she wouldn’t be super keen on you spending every waking moment with me and not her, so what gives?”

He turns in his chair to face you “ok smarty pants, those are some pretty bold assumptions” he smirks before continuing “but your right, it’s just me and it’s honestly a little lonely, when I’m with you it’s comfortable we can go hours without saying anything to one another and I don’t feel awkward or lonely” you couldn’t help but smile at him “H, that’s the sweetest thing I’ve ever heard”.

He chuckles covering his face with his hands his long hair falling forwards, you lean over to push it out of his face and he peeks through his fingers, he slowly moves his hands taking yours in his “come to Jamaica with me” he says out of the blue you sit there looking at him, mouth agape “what?” You ask still processing what he asked.

“Come to Jamaica with me” he repeats a small smile sneaking into his lips “it’ll be amazing, we can work or we can go scuba diving we could do anything…please come with me” he begs.

You couldn’t even process the words coming out of his mouth, you were still stuck on being asked to go with him “why?” You ask softly. Harry let’s go of your hands and sits back in his chair a little “because, I like spending time with you and you pretty much work for me full time, let alone everyone else you write and produce for, you deserve a break”.

You watch Harry’s face for a moment trying to read the expression he was giving you “are you sure?” You question pulling your knees to your chest on your office chair. He nods “I wouldn’t ask if I wasn’t” he comments. You suck your teeth for a second thinking before looking directly at Harry. “Ok…” you say softly “I’ll come with you” you nod. Harry’s face moves from being one of anxiety and a little frustration to pure joy. “Really?!” He exclaims sitting on the edge of his seat his hands gripping the arm rests. You nod laughing a little “Yes! I like the idea, I think it’ll be good for both of us”.

Harry launches towards you pulling you into the tightest hug you’ve ever received, you hug him back laughing softly “ok Styles, I need to breathe” you say tapping his shoulder. He lets you go before sitting down again. In all the excitement Mish had come into the room and was now sitting between you and Harry whining. Harry chuckles taking his phone from the desk “I’ll let him out and start looking at flights” he grins getting up from his seat before you even had a chance to respond.

🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵

Just two short weeks later you were sat next to Harry on a plane on the way to warm, sunny Jamaica. You glance at Harry who’s was staring at his phone intensely trying to find a movie to watch. “What are you doing?” You ask noticing he was scrolling through Google at a bunch of different movies “just looking for a rom com to watch” he responds straight away without peeling his attention away from the device. “Harry…just search romantic comedies on Netflix” he glances at you, thinks for a moment and then does exactly as you suggest “thanks” he smiles putting his headphones in. You do the same putting on an audiobook, you only got through about a chapter before you fell asleep.

You woke several hours later to Harry pushing your shoulder lightly “y/n…wake up, we’re getting ready to land” he whispers you groan a little “I was having the best sleep, you suck” you glare at him. You were never the nicest person when you were woken from a slumber “I’m not the one flying the plane I don’t make the rules” he bites back. You wake a little more sitting up in your seat putting your seat belt back on you look over at Harry “I’m sorry” you apologise “I’m a bit of a grump after a nap” Harry looks at you again, scanning your face “it’s ok” he smiles.

You make it safely to the ground, collect your bags and make your way to the accomodation that Harry had organised. Pulling up out the front you get out of the car and collect your bags before looking up at the house Harry had rented for the next month “Harry, did you rent the whole house?” You ask he nods smiling over at you “yep” he says walking up towards it “there’s only two of us, not two hundred” you laugh. Harry shrugs “we might get sick of each other the place is big enough we wouldn’t even know the other was there” you see Harry’s point and follow him up to the front of the house. He finds the key and lets you both inside. You look around “wow” you whisper “Harry… this is incredible, how did you find this place?” You ask heading towards the doors that open out to the beach “Jeff actually recommended it” he says coming up beside you “this is going to be the best month ever” you smile.

“Y’up for a swim?” He asks you nod “yes please” you smile “c’mon, I’ll meet you back here in 15?” Harry asks, you nod and head off to pick rooms, even though the place was huge Harry still insisted that you have the master bedroom, it had a huge bathroom with the tub overlooking the beach. You open your suitcase grabbing the first bikini you could find. Pulling it in your realise it may not have been the best choice for a platonic trip with a man who was basically your boss. The mint green triangle top only just covering the round of your breasts, and the hi-waist cheeky bottoms that in actual fact didn’t cover much of your ass. Grabbing a black cover up you pull it on before heading back out to find Harry.

Walking out onto the warm sand your sunglasses covering your eyes your hair blowing in the breeze, you find Harry already situated on one of the lounge chairs in yellow and white stripped swim trunks his hair in a bun and sunglasses adorning his eyes his shirt already missing. Harry peers over his sunglasses as you walk past him and smiles to himself before laying his head back again “thought you came to swim Styles” you comment placing your towel down placing your sunglasses on top before pulling your cover up over your head throwing it to the lounge chair. You glance over at Harry to see him already looking at you.

“I thought you only had one tattoo?” He asks noticing the tattoos dotted around your ribs, next to your breast and on your thigh close to your hip. “It’s a growing collection, I just keep them hidden most of the time” you smile a little before heading towards the water, once your up to your hips in the warm, clear water you hear Harry coming up behind you as he moves past you he smiles “green suits you”. You blush a little and try to hide your face “thanks” you smile a little. Harry keeps walking a little further before diving in you watch him for a moment before you follow suit.

Coming back up to the surface you lay back looking up at the sky as you float to nowhere in particular after a few minutes you feel a tug in your foot. You look up and see Harry at your feet staring at you “I’ve got an idea….on the plane remember how you said to search Netflix, it gave me a bit of inspiration for a song”. You come back to stand on your own two feet “did you want to put it on paper?” You ask. Harry thinks on it for a moment before nodding “I don’t know if it’ll turn into anything but I’d love to try” he admits. You nod “lets give it a go and see what happens” you give him a brief smile and begin to walk back to shore. Harry watches as the swell of your hips begins to reappear from under the water, then your ass. He takes in a sharp breath your bikini didn’t leave much to the imagination, but he liked that.

“Y/n” he says coming up behind you “yeah?” You ask turning your head slightly but still walking “you look great” he smiles you respond by smiling back at him blushing a little “thanks H” making your way up to the sand you grab your towel and sunglasses drying yourself off a little before pulling on your cover up. You head inside with Harry and he sits down on the couch with his guitar in hand. He starts playing a few chords. “What are you thinking Styles? Where’s your head at with this one?” You ask he looks over at you “I think I’d like it to be a Betty and the jets kind of feel? Like a steady tempo but still solid.” You nod and sit at the piano that was in the middle of the room “ok, we can work with that”.

You and Harry work for a few hours and managed to get the chords for the new song. You grab your laptop and start adding the different elements in until it’s basically just a backing track for a verse, “this is good Harry” you smile “it’s got that kind of Elton John era vibe, it’s great” he smiles and thanks you. You’d been working for a few hours and you were starting to get cold, the sun was starting to disappear and you were definitely getting hungry. “Should we get some dinner?” You ask looking over at Harry he nods “I’m so hungry” he sighs causing you to giggle “why didn’t you say something?” You ask Harry shrugs “we were on a roll” you giggle standing up “I’m just going to shower quickly” you smile, ruffle his hair and lean down to kiss his cheek briefly before heading up to the bathroom.

🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵

After getting dinner you and Harry decided to just relax for the night and put on a documentary he spreads himself out on the couch with you curling up in one of the corners, halfway through you glance at Harry in his grey t-shirt and soft cotton shorts you smile to yourself a little, he looked good, domestic, it was nice. “Tea?” You ask going to stand up Harry glances over at you with sleepy eyes “yes please love” he responds giving you a lazy smile. You head to the kitchen making two cups of tea before coming back to Harry he had paused the documentary not wanting you to miss anything. He watches you as you walk across the living space the oversized t-shirt you were wearing showing off your legs in a way Harry could appreciate.

“Thank you” he smiles softly “cold?” He asks noticing the goosebumps covering your thighs you nod a little “yeah but I’ll be ok” Harry grabs a blanket that was sitting on top of the couch “c’mere” he says softly unfolding the blanket to cover his own legs. You shuffle a little closer to him and he tosses the blanket over your legs, you pull it up snuggling down into a little sipping your tea. “Hey” you whisper softly shoving Harry’s side a little he glances at you smiling “yes boss?” He asks giving you his undivided attention, you smack his chest lightly at his comment causing him to chuckle “thank you…for letting me come with you” Harry smiles “thank you for coming” he responds “it’d be pretty lonely without you” he adds causing you to giggle a little. You curl up next to him resting your head just next to Harry’s shoulder. He looks down at you trying to hide his smile.

You both spend the rest of the documentary stealing little glances at one another, as the credits start to roll through Harry glances towards you expecting you to be wide awake, as he looks closer he noticed you were fast asleep. He slowly pulls the blanket off the both of you and tucks one arm under your legs and the other around your waist picking you up carrying you to the master bedroom. Harry tucked you into bed leaving a soft kiss to your forehead that caused you to stir, opening your eyes slowly you look up at Harry “sorry love, didn’t mean to wake you” he whispers “you fell asleep on the couch” you smile to yourself “thank you for tucking me in” you grasp Harry’s hand for a moment giving it a squeeze. You fall back to sleep and Harry let’s himself out to his own room.

🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵

Waking up to the sun beating into the master bedroom was the perfect way to be disturbed the next morning. You sit up looking outside for a while before getting up heading to the shower. You throw your hair into a braid and pull on a sports bra and bike shorts throwing a pump cover over the top, your grab some socks and your runners before heading down to the kitchen to find Harry already up, his shirt missing but the cotton shorts from last night still hugging his hips.

“Morning” you smile Harry looks up and takes a moment before responding “Good morning” he smiles “where are you off to?” Harry asks “morning run, Mish and I normally go for a run everyday before I start working, wanna come?” You ask sitting on a kitchen chair to pull your shoes on. “Umm yeah actually I’d love to, give me five minutes” Harry says before racing down to change his clothes, he returns a few minutes later in running shorts and a muscle tank white crew socks adorning his feet his runners in hand. He quickly pulls them on doing them up pulling his hair up into a bun. You stare at him for a moment “you look cute with your hair up” you blurt out before even realising what you had said. Harry glanced at you a cheeky smirk on his lips “do I now?” He chuckles you blush standing up walking towards the front door “c’mon let’s get this run in” you smile. Harry follows close behind you.

You make it to the front of the house and stretch a little bit to ensure you won’t cramp. You start with a light jog just to warm up a little Harry following suit, you pick up the pace a little bit once you’re warm. You run around five kilometres before slowing down a little coming to a stop to catch your breath for a moment. “How you feeling there Styles?” You ask as Harry’s wiping sweat from his forehead that’s been dripping down his face for the last few kilometres “you do this everyday?” He asks you just nod before responding “I usually run until Mish starts to get tired then we run home before he’s out of steam”. Harry just looks at you “no wonder you’re so fit” he comments, you bite your lips softly and smile. “And you’re not?” You ask rhetorically “your abs exist H” you comment. You enjoyed cardio more than work outs, you felt like you got more from being outside and running instead of being in the gym working out, which in most cases you knew Harry had to opt for the gym otherwise his workouts would probably turn into accidental meet and greets.

“This is the first time I’ve run outside for ages, it’s great” he smiles in your direction “ready to go back?” He asks and you nod. You pick the pace up again and begin to run back towards the house, once you were about a kilometre away you glance at Harry who again was pouring with sweat “race y’back?” You ask, he just smirks and runs off on you. You chase after him eventually catching up and getting in front a little you run right around to the back of the house to the shore line “I hate to say it, but I think I beat you” you laugh as Harry finally catches up placing his hands on his knees trying to catch his breath.

“Yeah yeah ok” he pants. You just laugh breathing deeply to catch your own breath. You cool off a little before kicking your shoes and socks off as well and pulling your shirt over your head “coming in?” You ask referring to the ocean that was directly behind you Harry nods just watching you for a moment admiring the body that you hid under your pump cover. You push yourself out into the ocean wading against the current cooling off in the Jamaican water.

🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵

After a quick swim you both head inside to shower before meeting back in the kitchen to have breakfast. By the time Harry made it you were halfway through preparing omelettes for you both and putting together a small fruit platter for you to share. Harry starts some coffee before sitting at the table with a guitar in hand. He starts playing a little picking pattern while he watched you cook, as the coffee finished you look up glancing at Harry catching him staring at you causing you to smile and blush a little. “I like that, is it new?” You ask as Harry gets up to pour you both a cup, “I started playing around with it before we left, the more I play it the more I like it” he says placing a cup of coffee next to you stealing a few grapes from the platter on his way past.

Harry continues plucking away at the guitar and starts humming along “wherever I go….you bring me home.” You lean against the kitchen counter a little just watching Harry smiling. You finish up cooking breakfast and place Harry’s plate next to his notebook squeezing his shoulder lightly as you walk to your own seat grabbing your laptop to do some work. You both work in silence Harry humming and singing here and there eventually coming up with a hook to work around the rest of the song. “Just two hearts in one home….we’re both stubborn I know” Harry sings softly, the words resonated with you a little you look up from your laptop seeing Harry smiling in your direction. “What?” You ask softly a smile creeping onto your lips “I really like this” he smiles turning back to his notebook “you’re something else Styles” you whisper.

After another hour Harry had managed to get a hook and chorus somewhat under control. You’d cleaned up from breakfast and were setting up a makeshift recording booth for Harry to use. “It’s ready for you H” you whisper kissing Harry’s head ruffling his hair a little as you walk past him to grab your coffee “you’re the best thank you so much” he smiles heading in towards the setup.

Harry spent a good half of the day working on the song while you caught up on other work only helping him when he needed it. By the end of the day he’s recorded a demo and you were sitting on the couch with him tying up some loose ends. “This is really good H” you say after listening to the song a few times. Harry looks up at you with slightly red cheeks “what can I say, Jamaica is inspiring” he smirks “what do you say we get out of the house for a little while? We’ve been inside all day” Harry suggests. You nod standing up “why don’t we go and try something fun?” You suggest Harry starts packing some things away before speaking “what did you have in mind?” He asks “what about paddle boarding?” You ask pulling your hair up into a high bun.

Harry comes over to you smiling widely “I’ve always wanted to try that!” He says “get changed and meet back here in 10?” Harry asks you nod giggling at how excited Harry was. He pecks your cheek before racing off to his room. You pick out yet another bikini before heading back down to the beach to find Harry and a single paddle board. “H what happened?” You ask giggling a little walking closer to him. “I thought maybe we’d help one another until we get used to it?” He asks grinning. You ponder Harry’s idea for a moment before nodding “that actually sounds like a great idea”.

Harry watches as you both wade out into the water until the little waves were lapping at your waist he lets out a small chuckle splashing your back “heyyyy” you giggle turning to face him “what was that for?” You ask splashing him back causing him to let out a laugh then shrugs “you looked too pretty, had to mess you up a bit” you move back towards Harry a little “what do you mean I looked too pretty?” You ask knowing full well what you were doing to the poor man. “Y’know…we’re not even a week into a month long trip, if I’m going to see you in a bikini everyday the least y’could do is look worse doing it…it’s distracting.” You blush a little at Harry’s words.

You step even closer to Harry until there was just the paddle board between you “I’m distracting?” You ask. Harry let’s the board float past the both of you before nodding stepping close enough his hands could graze your waist “have you looked in the mirror lately? Ever since we’ve been here you’ve had a shirt on maybe twice, and you expect me to work in these conditions?” You smirk teasing him. Harry looks at you a little gobsmacked, you wait a moment before looking away “Harry” you say bluntly, he hums a little coming back to reality “yeah?” He asks ruffling his hair from his face “your paddle boards floating away” you say matter of factly. “Shit” he mumbles wading off after it causing you giggle, watching the muscles in his back relax and contract as he tried to catch up with the board got you a little worried for the rest of the trip.

Why couldn’t he have picked somewhere that would have required more clothes.

Harry catches up to the board and pushes it back towards you “maybe we should try paddle boarding tomorrow?” He asks out of breath. You nod “sounds like a good idea Styles” you walk back to shore together and lay on the sand for a while before Harry speaks up “so softy, how would you feel about going out for dinner tonight? We’ve worked pretty well the last few days we’re on track I think we deserve a little break” you glance over at Harry for a moment before rolling onto your front to look at him properly “isn’t this whole trip technically a break? We both just seem to have an inability to stop working” Harry sighs softly “that a good point….do you think it’s a bad thing? That we don’t stop?” You shake your head reaching over to push some of Harry’s hair from his face “I think we both love our jobs so much that it’s not actually work to us…what’s the saying ‘if you truely love your job you never work a day in your life’ I think that’s us.” Harry waits for a moment before speaking up “y’know a lot of people were skeptical about me asking you to produce for me, but I definitely think I made the right choice” he glances at you once more before laying his head back.

You sit in silence for a while just enjoying the sun and the sound of the waves behind you as the tide started to rise you could feel the ocean lapping at your feet “c’mon H, tides coming in” you say standing up holding a hand out to help Harry up. He gladly obliged taking your hand in his, as your about to pull him up from the sand Harry takes the liberty of pulling you down instead, you fall onto his chest a small shriek leaving your lips causing Harry to chuckle his hands grasping your waist “you didn’t give me and answer about dinner?” He smirks looking at you over the top of his sunglasses. You pause for a moment chewing on your lip “didn’t know I had to” you wink squirming from Harry’s grip before standing again “but if you really need one, yes, I’d love to go out for dinner” you answer holding your hand out to help Harry up again.

🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵

Rinsing conditioner from your hair you couldn’t help but worry a little about dinner, you were close with Harry and couldn’t deny that you found him attractive, but blurring the lines between work and play was something you weren’t sure of. You also weren’t sure if you were reading way to far into this and Harry was just being a good friend.

Pulling your hair into a low bun, some little wispy pieces falling around to frame your face you admired the sun kissed glow you’d acquired these last few days. You felt pretty, something you rarely felt within the industry you’d dedicated your life to, it felt nice, different. Slipping into a flowy cotton dress and sandals you spray a little bit of perfume before heading back to the living room finding Harry sitting on the couch waiting scrolling through his phone. He looks up as he hears you coming and stands to meet you halfway, he stops in his tracks seeing you, your dress hugging your torso perfectly Harry would have swept you up off your feet there and then. “Wow, y/n you look beautiful” he smiles leaning over to kiss your cheek softly causing you to blush “you don’t clean up too badly yourself H.” You retort causing Harry to chuckle.

Being seated at dinner you didn’t realise how intimate the setting was, you thought Harry would have just picked somewhere that he found appealing, but this was almost as though he had put genuine thought and care into picking a restaurant. You were sat outside the warm breeze flowing throughout the dining area, you could hear waves crashing in the distance, while you were watching Harry peruse the menu through the warm light provided by the string lights and candles dotted around the venue. Harry groans a little from the other side of the table, “you ok?” You question opening up the menu yourself “I’ve never had so much trouble picking something to eat, it all sounds so good” he grumbles causing you to giggle “Harry, I think that’s what they call a first world problem…” you wait a moment before continuing “why don’t we order a couple of entrees and share them, kind of like tapas?” You suggest. Harry ponders your suggestion for a moment before nodding “you’re too smart for me sometimes” he smiles.

You both pick a couple of things each and decide to have some fun with drinks letting Harry pick for the both of you for first round. This went back and forth for a while until you were noticeably tipsy, mostly due to your lack of filter. Harry was staring at your across the table while you were both waiting for desserts, you try to hold back your smile “I still don’t get how you don’t have a girlfriend Styles” Harry looks at your surprised by your admission “what do you mean?” He asks leaning back in his seat a little diverting his attention to you “you can give a girl so much, like this holiday, we’re staying in a gorgeous house on the beach, going out for nice dinners, but you’re still so down to earth…and I mean look at you, your so attractive it’s annoying, you’re just…perfect” you sigh. Harry stares at you for a moment trying to find the right words. “I guess I’m just waiting for the right time, the right person, you know as well as anyone m’life is hectic, can’t afford to be emotionally unavailable and I guess physically, that wouldn’t be fair.”

🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵

The food you and Harry decided on was some of the best food you’d ever eaten, but the cocktails may have been partially responsible. Walking back to the house after dinner you were a little out of hand just about running rings around Harry. He had been a little glum since leaving dinner, you wander back to Harry and settle at his side walking next to him “what’s wrong Styles? You’ve been quiet since we left dinner” you ask bumping your elbow to his side. Harry glances at you before wrapping his arm around your shoulder giving you a soft squeeze letting you go again “I’m ok” he smiles softly. You stop walking and pull Harry back towards you “Harry…c’mon I know you well enough to know somethings up” you say softly.

He stops walking and faces you looking at his feet “I…” he pauses before looking up at you eyes wide “I’ve got an idea” he says reaching out for your hand which you gladly take. You walk, almost strut back to the house to try and keep up with Harry’s pace. He goes straight to the piano and sits down starting to play a few notes finding the right key. You sat watching as Harry started to hum “Oh, tell me something….” He sits back a little writing a few things down “I don’t already know” he goes back and forth humming a few words writing a few things down as you sit back watching. Before you know it Harry had the hook, chorus and a verse for Ever Since New York.

You sit back just watching Harry giving him his space to get out what he needed to get out. When it seemed he’d gotten as far as he was going to for the night you moved to sit next to him. Listening and now reading over the lyrics Harry had just birthed they resonated with you, you felt he was holding back you glance over to see him already looking at you. “We met in New York” you whisper softly Harry nods his expression not changing “I know” he responds “Harry, what is it?” He sighs a little chewing the inside of his cheek “I like spending time with you, I really like having you around, I like you a lot y/n.” He admits his eyes searching your own for some idea of how you were feeling. You look at Harry a little shocked at first before you even had time to process things his lips had connected with your cheek “m’sorry love, I shouldn’t have said anything” before you knew it Harry had got up from his seat and left to his bedroom leaving you sat alone in front of the piano.

It took you a few minutes to try and collect your thoughts. Did Harry just admit he had feelings for you? You weren’t sure of what to do, part of you wanted to go to Harry’s room to confront him about his expression, but another part of you wanted to respect his boundaries. You decided to leave it for the night not wanting to upset Harry and wanting to respect boundaries. You head to bed and toss and turn for hours on end eventually at around 3am you go out of bed and head back to the living area where you’d setup the make shift studio, to find Harry already there.

You make some tea before coming up behind Harry placing his cup on top of the piano where he was sat “couldn’t sleep?” You ask softly sitting next to him, Harry just shakes his head “thank you for the tea” he says softly, you smile a little “it’s ok H…hey” you say wrapping your hand around Harry’s “I’m sorry about earlier, you just caught be off guard H, look at me please” you ask softly as he grasps your hand moving to face you “I really like you Harry and spending time with you here just made me realise how much I like you” you lean over kissing Harry’s shoulder before resting your head against it. You tuck your hand under Harry’s and start playing the intro to a song you’d been working on for a while but not shown to Harry yet.

You feel his gaze burning into your side before his lips met your temple “is that new?” He asks pulling you closer to him you stop playing snuggling to Harry’s side shaking your head “I’ve been working on it for a while just kept getting stuck, I promise I’ll play it for you when it’s finished” you smile. Harry looks down on you smiling “I like that idea…why don’t we put a movie on to see if we can sleep?” He asks. You nod “yes please” you say softly getting up Harry follows closely behind you one hand on your waist to guide you. Harry let’s you snuggle up on the couch next to him he pulls a blanket over you both before flicking the tv on once you both agree on a movie he wraps an arm around you pulling you closer placing a kiss to your temple.

Not long after the movie started you began to drift off you rest your head on Harry’s chest and finally let sleep take you over. Harry noticed how quickly you fell asleep and couldn’t help her smile and admire the woman before him, he let you settle into your slumber before deciding you tuck you into bed. Harry slowly and carefully moves to pick you up carrying you to your room, you stir a little snuggling yourself into Harry’s arms further. He lays you on the bed gently and pulls the covers up to keep you warm, you whimper at the loss of contact and begin to wake “Harry…” you whine he stops in his tracks kneeling down next to the bed “you’re ok sweetheart, get some sleep” you reach out to take his hand, “stay please” you whisper taking Harry’s large hand in your own small ones. Harry couldn’t help but melt he leans over kissing your forehead softly “of course” he smiles sliding in next to you pulling you closer by your waist. You both drift off to sleep quite quickly snuggled up in one another.

🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵

The next morning things felt surreal, waking up next to Harry in Jamaica, you still had so many questions about what was happening but just knowing you both got your feeling out in the open settled your anxiety. Sitting up a little you expected the sun to be shining through the bedroom window illuminating the sea in front of you but what you were met with was stormy skies and rain. You sigh a little laying back on your pillow watching the rain for a while. You glance over at Harry to see him still sound asleep you smile leaning over kissing his cheek before sliding out of bed.

Regardless of the day you still had full intention of going for a run. You head down to the kitchen to grab some water before coming back to shower, you return to the bedroom in just your towel to grab some clothes “good morning” Harry greets causing you to jump “H!..I thought you were still asleep” you pant trying to catch your breath. “Sorry” he chuckles smiling “still going for a run? In this weather?” He asks raising a brow you nod smiling a little “it’s just a little bit of rain, do you want to come?” You ask grabbing some activewear opting for just bike shorts and a crop not wanting a pump cover due to the humidity.

Harry glands out the window then back at you then throws the covers off himself “let me find some clothes” he says getting up rushing off to his room you giggle a little as he runs off. You pull your shoes on and wait at the front door for Harry. He eventually appears just in running shorts, his shoes in his hand he pulls them on before meeting you at the door leaning down kissing your cheek “apricot suits you” Harry smiles referring to your activewear. You blush a little and open the door “c’mon you flirt, let’s go” you giggle looping your fingers around Harry’s in a loose hold. He looks down at your hand and smiles giving your hand a quick squeeze.

Much like the day before you start with a light jog until your warm before stepping things up a little. You were a few strides ahead of Harry still when you hear him coming up behind you, he makes it out in front of you and you notice his hair was dripping where it had come loose from its bun and his body was glistening with a mix of rain water and sweat. You got a little caught up watching Harry and almost trip letting out a little shriek catching yourself before you fell, you tried to play it off but you’d slowed down and lost a bit of distance on Harry. He looks behind him when he hears you shriek and sees you were a little further away than anticipated.

Harry comes over to you panting a little “are you ok?” He asks. You couldn’t even give the man a proper answer just gawking at his body you mouth hanging open a little your chest heaving. You wanted to box this memory up and keep it forever. You motion for Harry to come closer to which he obliged, he reached out pushing a little bit of hair from your eyes tucking it behind you ear caressing your cheek a little “sweetheart…y’ok?” Harry asks again stepping closer concerned that you hadn’t answered him. As you opened your mouth to respond there was a flash of lightning followed by a huge clap of thunder. You jump looking up at the sky before it went from tolerable rain to torrential Harry’s hand drops to your waist squeezing your side a little trying to hide the fact the thunder and lightning had also scared him. You take a moment before glancing at him “let’s get back” you say over the sound of the rain. Moving away from Harry’s grip turning back towards the house you begin to run, you glance to your side and see Harry next to you, he was glancing at you on and off.

Harry still wasn’t entirely convinced that nothing was going on, he had told you about his feelings and he felt you may have been holding back in your own. Arriving back at the house both of you completely soaked you kick your shoes off and pull your wet socks off at the door. Harry doing the same. “I’m going to head to the shower, meet you in the kitchen? I’ll cook us breakfast?” You ask. Harry nods smiling lightly not saying anything. You head off and shower warming yourself up a little before throwing on an oversized top and some cotton shorts before heading back to the kitchen. You cook breakfast for yourself and Harry who was yet to return from his own shower. After breakfast Harry still hadn’t come back so you head into the living room sitting at the piano.

🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵

After almost two hours Harry still hadn’t come back, but you had managed to finish the song you had been writing and you wanted Harry to have it. It was like everything you felt for Harry and your struggle was in the song. You sit fiddling with it a little while longer trying to work on some of the harmonies, ‘same white shirt, couple more tattoos’ you try this line a few times before sighing moving forward ‘we’re not who we used to be, we’re not who we used to be, we’re just two ghosts…” you smile a little to yourself finding the harmony. You jump a little as Harry speaks up “you sound incredible, better than I do” he smiles. You look over for him seeing him standing at the edge of the living room with some grapes in hand. “How long have you been standing there? I was getting worried about you” You ask he chuckles softly “long enough, just had to take a few calls” he moves closer to come and sits next to you “I want you to have it” you whisper looking at him “I want you to sing it H, but only if you want to.” You say softly glancing at him. Harry couldn’t help but smile “what? To sing it? Pet it’s yours” he groans bumping your side a little, you shake your head “just….listen to the whole thing then decide?” You suggest repositioning yourself at the piano..

You begin playing Two Ghosts for Harry and by the end of it he had a few loose tears on his cheeks. He breathes out heavily “fuck” he sighs “you’re too good at this, y’know that?” Harry asks and you reach up with wipe his cheeks “y’ok?” You ask softly taking his hand, Harry squeezes your hand leaning over to kiss your head softly “I want to do it” he says wrapping an arm around your shoulder. You glance up at him surprised that he said yes. “Really?” You ask Harry just nods shifting his body to face you “it’s perfect sweetheart” you blush looking up at him with pleading eyes “thank you” you whisper resting your forehead to his.

“Y/n…” Harry whispers, you hum in response brushing your nose against Harry’s. All you could think about was how close your lips were to his. “Can I-” you cut Harry off before he can finish his sentence pressing your lips to his own. Harry immediately grips your wasit as you turn your body more to face him his soft pink lips encapsuling your own perfectly after a few minutes both you and Harry must have realised what you had done, you pulled away almost at the same time, each giving the other a moment to say something, anything. Harry’s hand moves to push some hair from your face before cupping your cheek “I- umm, was that-” Harry fumbles with his words a little looking at you in absolute awe. You just nod leaning closer to Harry wrapping your arms around him “I love Jamaica so much” you whisper Harry just smiles leaning in to kiss you again pulling you into his lap.

He slowly pulls away running his hands up your back causing you to break out in goosebumps, Harry bites his lip softly not being able to contain his smile “I wish we could stay like this forever” he mumbles kissing your jaw causing you to giggle, “I think Jeff would hate us if we did that” you smirk. Harry hums reaching up to peck your lips softly. You stay in each others arms for a moment before Harry’s phone begins to ring. He sighs softly placing a small peck to your nose as you climb off his lap. Plucking his phone from the top of the piano Harry sees Mitch’s name pop up he answers putting it on speaker “hey mate, y’alright?” Harry greets you stand and kiss Harry’s cheek before heading off the kitchen wanting to give Harry at least a little bit of privacy. “I’m good mate, just checking in to see how everything’s going?” Mitch’s voice echoed through the living space “great, everything’s really great, we’ve made great progress” you could hear the smile in Harry’s voice which caused you to blush knowing he wasn’t talking about the progress with writing.

Harry and Mitch chat for a while about the album and some of the songs they had written together before Harry came to Jamaica. After around thirty minutes of chatting they sound as though they had covered everything they needed to. “Ok, I’ll see you when your back in town then…oh! Wait how are things going with Y/n?” You perk up at the sound of your name wondering what Harry could have told Mitch for him to ask about you. The three of you had done some work together prior to the trip and you had a very annoying brother sister type of relationship with Mitch which got you wondering if maybe Harry had said something to him prior to you coming away with him. “Y’know it’s great” Harry chuckles softly “she’s amazing and we work really well together, this trip has been incredible” you hear Harry sigh softly “but?” Mitch asks sensing Harry wasn’t finished “part of me wants to just stay here with her, Y’know? M’happy and I don’t know the last time I was genuinely happy” he admits which overhearing the conversation surprised you a little. “Mate, Y’know she’s coming back to the same place you are, you’ll still see her and work with her, just enjoy it while y’can yeah?” You peek into the living space seeing Harry nod before responding. They chat a little longer about when Harry will be back in the UK before ending the call. You decide to leave Harry be for a moment heading over to open some door and windows now the weather had cleared up.

🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵

The sea was screaming for you after you and Harry had spent the afternoon working on the album and trying to keep your hands off each other. “C’mon you, let’s get out of the house for a while” you smile kissing his cheek before racing off to change into a bikini. The high rise cheeky bottoms showing you off to Harry the way you wanted and the tie front top pushing your breasts together in a way even you could admire.

You head outside sighing softly at the way the sun hit and warmed your skin perfectly. Harry soon followed behind you “I like the view” he smirks from behind you. You turn and glance at him blushing slightly “shut up Styles” you bite your lip softly as he moves closer kissing your cheek softly before moving past you into the water “coming in?” He calls out already waist deep in water. You giggle a little at how cute he was being before following suit until you were standing directly in front of him. His hands automatically reach for your hips pulling you closer to him while your arms wrap around his shoulders, hands playing with the hair on the nape of his neck “I know Dunkirk is coming up soon, does that mean you have to cut your hair?” You ask softly looking up at Harry who nods a little “yeah, it’ll be cut and donated the day after we get home” he says just loud enough to hear over the waves lapping at your sides. “Do you not want me to cut it?” He asks curiously. You shake your head “I love that you want to help someone else and donate it H, it’s humble” he simply smiles and leans down kissing you softly.

You spend most of the afternoon in the water together and finally trying to paddle board which just led to Harry laying on the paddle board soaking up the sun instead. Eventually you both got out of the water and found comfort on the beach lounges “so Styles….how’s the album looking, what have we got so far?” You ask grabbing your phone opening your notes to make a list of what Harry and already written and what you had written together so far. “Well” he starts “we wrote and recorded Complicated Freak, Medicine, Baby Honey, Anna and Kiwi before we even left, oh and Sign of the Times and Only Angel, so far we have written Ever since New York, Two ghosts and Sweet Creature and I’m part way through probably four more songs, so we’re close”

“We’ve done a lot for only being here for a week” you smile at Harry who was already looking at you. He reaches out to push some hair from your face tucking it behind your ear “we have, haven’t we” he smiles pulling you into his lap taking your phone putting it aside before resting his hands on your thighs that were straddling his hips. You lean down pecking Harry’s lips softly dropping your hips a little so your torso was aligned with his. You could feel him growing hard in his swim trunks as he connected his lips back to yours humming against them.

You slowly pull away slightly just enough to be able to lick and suck at Harry’s bottom lip without completely losing contact. Harry’s hands move from your thighs to your rump pushing your hips down into his growing cock eliciting a groan that could have been music to your ears. The way you were straddling Harry’s front meant your clit was being stimulated by his tip driving you wild causing you to grind harder. “Is this ok?” Harry mumbles on your lips as he hooks his thumbs into your bikini bottoms “this is perfect” you respond instantly lifting your hips allowing Harry to push your bottoms down you kick them off to the side as Harry’s fingers graze up the inside of your thigh until they reach your centre. You connect your lips with Harry’s again slowly moving to kiss down his neck and chest paying particular attention to his butterfly tattoo. “H, can I take these off?” You ask wrapping your fingers around the waistband of his swim trunks. Harry simply nods not able to take his eyes off you. He helps you to take them off lifting his hips until his hard on springs free resting on his stomach. You bite your lip softly taking in Harry’s size before making your way down to kiss laurel tattoos. Harry moved to rest an arm under his head to be able to see you he inhales a sharp breath as you kiss up his length before taking him in your hand giving him a few lazy pumps.

Harry begins to leak a little causing you to smirk up at him “that desperate for me Styles?” You giggle “well you’ve been teasing me long enough” He smirks tucking your hair behind your ear. Without saying another word you settle a hand at Harry’s base to steady him, slowly licking up his length. Harry lets out a sigh, his eyes closing over and head resting back on his arm letting your mouth go to work. You place your tongue under Harry’s tip lapping up the pre-cum that had accumulated, working your tongue around his tip Harry groans out moving to hold your hair back. “That’s my girl…” Harry whimpers softly as you take his length in your mouth, trying to fit as much of him in as your body would allow before gagging, “taking me so well baby” Harry sighs thrusting up a little to meet your own movements. You come up for a moment to catch your breath when Harry pulls you back onto his chest connecting his lips to yours “so perfect” he mumbles on your lips moving your legs to straddle him. His hard cock nestled perfectly between your folds, you hum on Harry’s lips slowly beginning to grind against him the movements stimulating you both, causing the wetness between your legs to build, lubing Harry up perfectly. He shudders feeling your wetness against him, his tip grazing your entrance “c’mere” you whisper lifting your hips ever so slightly before positioning Harry at your entrance.

You slowly sink down onto his member, you suck your breath in before letting out a satisfied moan, loving the way Harry was filling you up, you simply stay as you were for a moment letting yourself adjust to Harry’s size leaning down placing some slow soft kisses to his lips, leaving your hands on his chest you slowly begin to rock finding a nice slow rhythm that was causing Harry to squirm “feels so good sweetheart, m’not gunna last long like this” he whimpers placing his hands on your rump pulling your hips towards his a little quicker. You speed up your pace and soon enough your both turned into one big sweaty mess as Harry turns you over onto your back without even needing to pull out and reposition himself.

He begins pounding you from this position running a hand down your calf until it reaches just above your ankle, Harry hoists it up to his shoulder kissing down your leg a little. You moan out gripping the edge of the lounge chair as Harry leans down pressing his lips to yours in a messy kiss, teeth and tongues clashing and moaning into each others mouths you start to feel your orgasm building rapidly in this new position, you kiss down Harry’s neck before looking him in the eye mouth agape “H…” you groan tipping your head back “I’m so close, gunna make me cum” you whimper holding his bicep your nails digging into the skin.

Harry just groans nipping at the skin on your neck and around your nipples kissing each one before coming back to your lips “let go for me baby, cum on my cock sweetheart” Harry grumbles on your lips as he reached down with his spare hand rubbing circles over your clit with his thumb driving you wild. Your breath hitches in your throat and your hips lift as you place your hand over Harry’s pushing him to rub you faster sending your over the edge. Letting out a shriek your hips drop back down as your orgasm takes over your body your entire body shaking as your pussy pulses around Harry’s cock seemingly sending him to his own climax his thrusts turning to lazy pumps as he fills you with his ribbons of white fluid he collapses onto your chest breathing heavily “shit” he whispers softly as his member twitches inside you “I’m sorry love, didn’t mean to cum in you, you’re just….wow” he sighs glancing up at you pecking your lips loosely. Your hands find his hair before responding “it’s ok H, I’m on birth control, cum in me all you want” you whisper on his lips. You feel him smirk and buck his hips forward a little teasing you, you gasp at the pleasurable overstimulation.

You stay tangled in one another for around twenty minutes as you both come down from your highs Harry’s hand stroking your side “y’ok?” He whispers softly kissing across your cheek before making it to your lips “amazing” you whisper back pecking his lips as some goose bumps begin to form on your arms “cold sweetheart?” Harry asks, but before you’d even responded he’d bundled your up in his arms and was carrying you inside to the master bathroom. Harry sets you down on the counter in the bathroom before heading over to the bath turning the water on adding some bubble bath to the water before returning to you his hands coming to rest on your waist “you should use the bathroom pet, we don’t want you getting an infection” he whispers kissing your cheek softly “I’ll go grab some clothes for us” Harry goes to walk away but you grab his hand pulling him back towards you wrapping your arms around his neck “why don’t you bring all your clothes back?” You whisper just loud enough that Harry could hear over the running water he simply smiles “want me to stay with you?” He asks picking up on what you were implying. You simply nod biting your lip trying to hide your smile Harry breaks out in that trademark grin and leans down kissing your passionately “I’d love nothing more” he whispers on your lips “I’ll be back in a couple of minutes ok?” He asks kissing your nose. You nod as Harry reluctantly let’s go of your body scooting off to go and collect his belongings. While he’s gone you go to the bathroom like he asked before making some room for his things on the counter.

On Harry’s return you were turning the water off for the tub turning the lights down so you were able to watch the sunset together. Harry wanders back in with his toiletries in hand placing them on the counter before coming over wrapping his arms around you from behind kissing along your shoulder you hum placing your arms over Harry’s. “Baths ready for us, I’ll grab us some towels” you say softly escaping Harry’s grip heading into the bedroom you grab some towels and yours and Harry’s phones before coming back. On return Harry’s was standing at the floor to ceiling window that over looked the beach as the sun hit him perfectly you quickly swipe across to the camera app on your phone taking a quick snap of Harry, illuminated by the golden sun, ass on full display. Unfortunately you hadn’t had your phone on silent, so the click of the camera gave you away and Harry’s head instantly swung in your direction. “What’cha up to miss?” He asks making his way over to you “just admiring” you giggle a little trying to hide your phone “give us a look” Harry chuckles trying to grab your phone from your hands as your cheeks flush bright red trying to keep your phone away from him, eventually Harry’s long arms prove your short ones useless grabbing your phone looking at the photo “who’s this? Do I know’im?” Harry asks you scoff a little smiling up at Harry “I’m sorry I couldn’t help myself, you looked too good” you smile softly. Harry places your phone down on the counter and cups your cheeks “don’t apologise sweetheart, I’m just messing around” he smiles leaning down to kiss you softly “ready to hop in?” He asks hands moving down to rub your hips. You nod “yeah, just need to tie my hair back” you smile pecking his lips before moving out of Harry’s grip to grab a hair tie. You pull your hair into a loose bun with a few pieces hanging around your face turning around you see Harry already in the water smiling over at you admiring what he so badly wanted to be his.

Heading toward the bath Harry holds his hand out to help you climb in before settling your back in his chest his legs either side of yours, his arms around your torso rubbing circles into your skin as you both watch the sun go down. “You’re so beautiful” Harry whispers in your ear causing goosebumps to erupt on your skin, you hum softly resting your head back on his shoulder as he kisses down your neck a little before going to back to watching the sunset, it was in this moment that you realised Harry wasn’t watching the sunset at all, in the reflection in the window you could see you both, Harry had been watching you the whole time. In that moment you knew this is what you wanted with this man you had fallen for Harry because Harry had fallen for you, you turn in his hold a little placing a finger under his chin directing his face to yours before placing your lips to his in a delicate kiss.

🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵🎶🎵

Snuggling into Harry in bed he kisses your forehead softly “Harry?” You ask looking up at him, he hums resting his forehead to yours “what are we going to do?” You whisper softly “what do you mean pet?” He responds placing a kiss to your forehead. “What happens when we go home? Do things go back to how they were?” You ask nervously. Harry rolls over onto his side to look at you properly, “is that what you want?” He asks a worried look covering his face. You shake your head trying to hold yourself together “no…not at all” he smiles a little cupping your cheeks. “Well, I’d love for us to see where things go in our normal lives, see if we can make us work, go on dates together, keep writing and working together, even go for runs together with Mish?” He asks, you smile giggling a little, feeling like a giddy teenager. “I’d love that” you say pecking Harry’s lips he pulls you closer deepening the kiss as you wrap your arms around his shoulders, next thing you know Harry’s under the covers with his curly mane between your legs eating you out perfectly.

“Fuck your gorgeous” Harry mumbles on your skin as he kisses back up to your lips “roll onto your side baby” Harry whispers before tucking himself behind you kissing down your spine a little before slipping his boxers off “y’ok babe?” Harry asks kissing your neck, you twist to look at Harry nodding “I’m amazing H” you smile pulling him toward you kissing him passionately as he pushes himself into you causing you to gasp interlocking your hands with his.

Harry pumps himself into you slowly cradling you in his arms. He made slow love to you for hours wanting to spoil you and be as close to you as he possibly could. There was no sense of urgency, and no race to finish, it was just you and Harry enjoying the intimate moment together.

Eventually it got too much for Harry cumming inside of you for the second time this trip. “Why do you have to be so perfect” Harry groans smiling up at you his chest glistening with sweat. You giggle a little leaning down to whisper in his ear “I’m not done yet superstar” Harry smirks his hands running up your back pulling you into him kissing you in a needy fashion. “What is it baby?” He asks slowly pulling away “I wanna ride the tiger” you whisper on his lips smirking winning at him.

Harry looks at you a little dumbfounded “you wanna cum again sweet girl?” He asks you nod looking at him with pleading eyes biting your lip “yes please” you smirk. Harry chuckles softly “how can I say no to such good manners” he smiles as you lift off him nestling yourself onto his thigh. You lock eyes with Harry as you reach your hand to your mouth licking across your fingers before reaching down to your clit to help with moving against Harry’s thigh.

Watching you Harry groans placing his hands on your thighs giving them a squeeze as you begin to move against him, before long your movements were paced and stimulating including for Harry who was holding your hips guiding over his permanent art “you…are so fucking stunning sweet girl” he pants on your lips causing you to moan as Harry moved his leg a little stimulating you further, his cum leaking from you coating his thigh.

”Harry…” you pant squeezing your eyes shut “I’m…” you couldn’t even bring yourself to finish your sentence “I know sweetheart” he whispers within seconds your nails were digging into Harry’s shoulders as your head tipped back Harry’s mouth attached to your nipple adding another element to your climax “fuck!” You moan out as your body convulses against Harry practically clinging to him.

Calming down Harry helps you to lay next to him body’s entangled in one another Harry leaving delicate kisses over your face and chest “can I tell you something?” Harry whispers pushing your hair from your neck placing a few chaste kisses there before pulling away slowly as you nod “I’ve had feelings for you since we started working together, you’re kind of my muse for a lot of my writing, Mitch is the only one that really knows how deep they go” Harry sighs a little “I’m sorry I didn’t tell you sooner” you look up at Harry shaking your head “don’t apologise babe, I’d be lying if I said I didn’t have feelings for you within a few weeks of working with you” you giggle a little.

Harry pulls you closer wrapping his arms around you kissing you softly “staying in Jamaica with you for good is sounding better and better” Harry smirks on your lips. You giggle a little on Harry’s lips “don’t tempt me, I might be in trouble with your fans and Jeff for keeping to you myself” you mumble kissing him back. “I’d be ok with that” Harry responds before rolling you onto your back starting what was to be a long strenuous night.

enjoy this little but not so little one, it’s been sitting in the drafts for a while and not proof read super well so please be kind!

Pt 2. Coming soon...

CEO/BossHarry x FemReader

A little bit of enemy’s to lovers. Fluffy 🥰

T/w: aggression, attempted assault.

*********

Pleasing.

One of the most wild and out there inclusive and sustainable brands of a generation. Also your workplace since it first opened. You came on to a temp position as a lawyer planning to leave once they found someone with more experience to fill the position permanently, which turned into your contract being extended which turned into being offered the permanent position as the legal executive anyway.

It wasn’t your typical lawyer job, the dress code was a little more relaxed compared to previous companies you had worked for, even to this day you couldn’t bring yourself to not wear heels of some description to work. You held yourself to high standards in regards to your appearance, particularly when you never knew when the CEO would pop in.

You had really only spoken to Mr Styles a few times, but that was enough for you to form your opinion of him, he was your least favourite person to roam the Earth. You had major differences of opinion to how legal issues should be handled, you had always been down the line and straight to the point and you had the results and reputation to prove that it worked majority of the time. However Mr Styles was of the opinion that things should be negotiated and that Pleasing should be the sweet side of the deal rather than get to the point which meant in a number of cases you spent a lot longer negotiating deals than you should have and was also resulting in the company losing money.

You knew this was fact because your best friend worked in marketing and things were slow for him at the moment because there wasn’t much money to spend on promotion. Just last week Joel had been given a four day weekend just because there was no work to be done.

******

Today was a big day for you, the quarterly financials meeting, these generally involved the heads of each department, yourself included as well as the CEO and a few key investors. These were also the meetings you hated every last second of because the CEO never agreed with you or even bothered to look at your reports on how much the company was losing just in law suits in a week. Mr Styles was oblivious and honestly, you thought sometimes he was living in his own fantasy land, just creating the company as something to fill in his time.

Taking your seat a few places down from where Mr Styles would be seated, you place your cup of coffee above the meetings agenda and reports that were stacked at each seat. The other department heads and investors begin to roll in before finally Mr Styles himself arrives “apologies for the tardiness everyone, small family emergency” he mumbles taking his seat at the head of the table, “let’s get started shall we?” He looks around rubbing his hands together. The COO Adam stands and starts going through the overall loss and profit margins for the last three months and surprise surprise the company was still running at a total loss of almost 2.5 million per month.

Each department head then goes over their own profit-loss margins working their way around the table towards you. When it was finally your turn you look over what you had prepared before standing just as the others had. “Mr Styles, I would like to bring to your attention a string of recent lawsuits against us from another major skincare and cosmetics brand. In the last month alone we’ve run at a 5 million dollar total loss in just settlements to this company, the way we conduct ourselves in legal matters is simply not effective. I understand our sales have improved significantly since expanding the collections however, if we continue on this type of trajectory our reputation will eventually take a hit, NDA’s won’t stop a company that we’ve already settled with from dragging our name through the mud”

Mr Styles sits and ponders your words for a moment “I don’t see an issue with how we handle our legal issues here, we’re going to run at a loss when it comes to settlements.” You felt yourself getting angry at his statement “with all due respect Mr Styles, we should be fighting these lawsuits harder, we have the resources and knowledge to be able to so why aren’t we?” You ask the agitation clear in your voice. “Miss Y/L/N” Adam scolds you shrug “I’m just telling it how it is, we run at a ridiculous loss in legal because of these lawsuits because we’re not allowed to fight what we know we can win, I want to change that then Pleasing will flourish, this isn’t about ego or status, it’s about keeping this company afloat, we have staff in other departments having three day working weeks because we have nothing for them to work on!” 

Mr Styles has was resting under his chin glancing between you and Adam, who was seemingly hoping his glare would kill you there and then, “alright Miss Y/L/N, I’ll give you this next quarter do run legal the way you want, fight which ever battles the way you see fit and we’ll see who’s method works better” you nod “thank you Mr Styles, I’ll be sure to keep you up to date” you say before sitting down trying to hide the fact that you were quiet impressed with yourself in that current moment.

The final piece on the agenda was the annual company holiday party. This was often something that would occur in early November to beat the holiday rush that the company experienced later in the month and into December. Since you had begun at Pleasing a large majority of the planning for the holiday party was left to you. The last few years this party had been held in the function room of a local hotel, this year however you were changing things up wanting booking a local winery instead with gorgeous views and amazing wines and cocktails, just what you needed to get through a day of celebrations with colleagues and of course the snobby CEO.

Finally once the meeting is over your able to go back to your office shutting yourself away. You turn to walk towards your desk to find Joel already sitting in your chair causing you to jump, gasping “what the hell are you doing?!” You exclaim “you scared the life out of me!” You scold placing your papers on your desk “I was bored, thought I’d come and see what you were up to, Harry has literally nothing for us to do in marketing because we have no money” he sighs dramatically. Joel was one of the first friends you made here at Pleasing, he took the gay best friend stereotype to another level. You think about his words for a moment “Harry?” You ask confused causing Joel to scoff “are you insane?! The ridiculously hot man you just had a two hour long meeting with!” You glare at him to tone it down “you mean Mr Styles…get out of my chair” you pester needing to get some work done.

“Mr Styles and I finally sort of understand each other, he’s letting me run legal the way I want for the quarter” Joel sits in a chair on the other sise of your desk giving you a sly eye “maybe he likes a powerful woman” he winks “stop it. He’s our boss” you say sitting down to go through some paperwork “are we going for drinks tonight?” Joel asks swiping through Grindr on his phone “for the millionth time, I said I would be there” you say a little snappy causing Joel to look up “for the love of all things gay we need to get you laid, snappy exec isn’t a good look on you.” He chimes in standing up “I’m sorry, I just have a lot to do,I got really angry in the meeting, I want to prove to Mr Styles that things need to change around here for good” you sigh. Joel comes around to you hugging your shoulders, “you’re the best lawyer here, I’m sure whatever you need to prove, you’ll be able to do it, and if you don’t just flash him your tits or something, I don’t really know what straight men want” he shrugs letting you go walking to your office door “I’ll see you tonight, don’t be late!” He calls out as he walking out.

*****

By the time you left work it was 7pm, drinks were supposed to be straight after work at 5:30 but you got so caught up in a new lawsuit and then planning some more of the office holiday party that you didn’t even realise what the time was. You quickly pack up and rush off to find everyone already a few cocktails deep “I’m so sorry I’m late” you whisper to Joel with a pout he shrugs “it’s ok, we were just thinking of going to a different bar, look over in the corner” you look at him confused before looking over to see Mr Styles at a smaller table with a woman, presumably on a date “ugh, I agree with that, let’s get out of here, there’s a new bar just opened not far from my apartment, should we try there?” You ask starting to clear the table off a little to help the staff. The same group from work came here almost every fortnight so now you were all just in a routine of helping to clean up after yourselves before you left and it sometimes meant you got free drinks.

Heading out you glance once more in your bosses direction to see him already looking at you. You glare at him as his date clings to his side playing with the collar of his shirt. You roll your eyes before following Joel out the door. The group of you pile into an Uber and head over to the new bar near your place. Sitting down next to Joel you begin chatting to another of the girls from marketing as your first round of drinks arrive. You get a few rounds in before Joel nudges your side “my girl…what’s wrong?” He asks wrapping an arm around you, you shrug “I think it’s just work, that finances meeting took it out of me today” you sigh “I think I just need a night at home” you say softly spinning your glass in your hand glancing at Joel. He nods slowly “finish this round?” He asks and you nod breaking into a smile “of course” you giggle a little. You spent another twenty minutes or so with the group before you started to gather your things to go home.

Joel walks you out to the front of the bar pulling you in for a hug “look after yourself yeah? Please don’t work over the weekend” he sighs a little you nod hugging him back “I’ll try not to but lawsuits don’t sleep, see you Monday?” You ask softly. Joel nods “go get some sleep, love ya bitch” he smiles kissing your cheek before letting you go.

*******

The weekend went by slowly, but it was what you needed to reset. Sunday you had spent the afternoon sending off emails to vendors for the work party so that replies would come in early in the work week. You were lounging on the couch scrolling through Pinterest looking for decoration inspiration when your phone began to ring with a number you didn’t recognise. You glance at it for a moment before picking up “Hello?” You answer down the line waiting a moment for a response “Y/n? It’s Harr- uh, Mr Styles” you sit up a little “um Mr Styles Hi, what can I do for you?” You ask he clears his throat “I have a breakfast meeting tomorrow for a potential collaboration and I would be really grateful if you could come alone to go over contracts and everything?” He asks you process the question for a moment “Bess usually handles new contracts Mr Styles, do you really need me?” You ask “Bess has had a family emergency she can’t make it” he responds you sigh a little “yeah ok, I can fill in for her” he let’s put a sigh of relief “thank you so much, I really appreciate it, I’ll get the contracts and meeting details sent over to you and I’ll see you in the conference room at 7am” before you knew it he had hung up, you groan tossing your phone to one side giving yourself one last moment to relax before picking your phone up heading to your desk to look over the contracts overnight.

Spending most of the night going over the contracts and making changes to benefit Pleasing, you left your desk at 5am to start getting ready, having a shower trying to wake yourself up. Putting some makeup on around 6am your phone begins to chime with Mr Styles phone number illuminating your screen you quickly pick up “Good morning” you chime trying to sound enthusiastic and at least awake “Good morning, you’re up already by the sounds of things, have you had a chance to look over the contracts?” He asks hearing him clattering around in his kitchen “yeah, I looked over them last night and added in some proposed changes to benefit us, I’ll send them over to you now” you place your phone on speaker sending the documents off. “Did you sleep at all? This is an entire days worth of work” you giggle a little “after we spoke last night I got straight into the contracts, there’s a few more changes I wanted to make but it got to 5am and I figured I should probably get ready” the line goes silent for a moment “Wow Y/n that’s real dedication, are you sure your going to be ok to work all day?” Mr Styles asks “I’ll be fine, not the first time I’ve done long hours like that, I should probably get going, I’ll see you at 7 Mr Styles” you say before hanging up, wanting to end the conversation quickly. 

Harry was honestly surprised at how dedicated to your job you were and he appreciated that a lot of the work you did was under the radar. On his drive in to work he stopped at one of this favourite coffee shops picking himself up his usual espresso and a latte for you hoping that he got your order right. He felt as though he had been a little tough on you, seeing that you were so dedicated to ensuring Pleasing was succuessful and even having the guts to make you opinions known in the finances meeting made him regret how he had treated you. Pulling into the car park Harry grabbed his bags and made his way up to his office dropping a few things off and picking a few up before heading to the conference room.

Heading down the hall Harry expected to be the first one there, but inching closer to the conference room he noticed the lights already on and the room essentially set up for the breakfast meeting due to start in half an hour. Walking in Harry finds you sitting at the table, head basically in your laptop still going over the contracts. “Morning” Harry smiles softly, you just about jump out of your skin partially due to sleep deprivation, but also not expecting anyone to arrive until closer to 7, “Mr Styles!” you exclaim trying to catch your breath “I didn’t expect you to be here so early” you sigh. “Sorry, I didn’t mean to frighten you, I actually came in to set up but looks like you beat me to it...I um I got you a latte I hope that’s ok” He says a little shy compared to how he usually presents himself. You look up from your computer smiling a little “thank you, you didn’t have to do that Mr Styles” He shakes his head placing the coffee cup next to you “Please... call me Harry.” You couldn’t help but blush a little at your boss asking you to call him by his first name. You were about to respond when some other lawyers and execs start to flow into the conference room. 

The meeting ran reletively smoothly, both you and Harry managed to negotiate most of the changes to the contract, which for you, meant the night without sleep was worth while. Once everyone had left and it was just you and Harry you stretch in your chair, trying to hold in a yawn and failing miserably, you hear Harry chuckle off to the side “if you want the rest of the day off I wouldn’t be mad in the slightest, I understand now why we asked you to stay on permanently” he says softly moving closer to you.

You couldn’t help but smile a little at the compliment it was the first time that you’d felt appreciated in this role. You look up at Harry with tired eyes “I’ll be ok Harry, nothing a little bit of coffee can’t fix” he smirks a little “I’m sure your right but I’m concerned that that’s already your third coffee since we’ve been here, let alone the coffee you probably consumed before you got here” you sigh softly knowing he was right but not wanting to give in “Harry. I’ll be fine. End of” you retort. He holds his hands up in defeat. “Ok, I’ll leave you to it then, thank you for saving the day, I truely appreciate it, let me know if there’s anything I can do for you today” you shrug “no thanks needed, it’s what you pay me for” you smile softly. Harry only nods before making his way to his office.

The rest of your day dragged on, you got through a few contract changes and spent most of the afternoon on party prep to keep yourself awake. It was this weekend and everything was organised. Vendors has emailed you back with confirmations this morning, the last thing you had to do was find yourself something to wear. The company usually kept things semi formal for this particular event. You wanted to let your hair down a little and be a little more daring this year. You shoot a message off to Joel to see if he was free to help you pick something. Before he could reply your office phone began to ring. “Legal, this is Y/n” you answer not really looking at where the call was coming from “Y/n, it’s Harry, could you come to my office for a moment?” He asks you stammer a little trying to find your words “umm yeah ok, I’ll be there in 5” you hang up and collect a few things expecting this to be work related.

You make it to Harry’s assistance desk and smile softly at her “Hi, I’m just here to see Mr Styles” without saying a word she motions for you to head into his office. You walk towards the door and knock softly before opening it seeing Harry sitting at his desk on the phone. He motions for you to come in and take a seat. He finishes up with his phone call directing his attention to you “Hi” he smiles softly. He almost looked nervous and it made you a little bit giddy for him, which you weren’t sure how to feel about. “I just wanted to touch base and see how you were feeling, haven’t fallen asleep at your desk yet?” He asks you smile a little and shake your head “no, no unexpected naps yet” you giggle. Harry just smiles at you taking you in for a moment before realising himself that he was just staring at you, clearing his throat you bite your lip a little trying to hold in your awkward laugh “I um was hoping you had some time to talk to me about the company party? I know we touched on it briefly in the finances meeting but I’d love to know what you’ve got planned” Harry explains giving you his undivided attention “yeah of course” you spent about an hour going through all of your plans with Harry to which he hardly spoke and could barely take his eyes off you the entire time.

“This is amazing work, really thank you Y/n, a lot of what you do goes unrecognised because you never make a fuss or take credit for these things so thank you so so much” Harry smiles. All of a sudden you felt this wave of affection for the man sitting before you. You always thought he was some stuck up CEO when in fact he actually really cared for his company, it was nice that the feeling was mutual. “I should have let you run legal the way you wanted a long time ago, I’m sorry I’ve been so uptight” you shake your head a little “Mr Styles this is your company, you’re allowed to run it the way you see fit” he chuckles a little “even when I’m telling you your right you won’t take credit, be honest with me though, is it that bad?” He asks. You just nod “I think everyone tried to cover it, I just prefer to be brutally honest about it all“ Harry sighs softly “i really appreciate you bringing everything to my attention, I wish I’d been more open to listening to you in the first place...hey I usually have something at my place after the holiday party, I’d love to have you there this year...and you’re more the welcome to bring Joel everyone else brings their partners so you should to” his smile soon fades at the confused look plastered on your face “Mr Styles-“ you begin before he cuts you off “Harry” he says before letting you carry on rolling your eyes a little “Harry, you know Joel’s gay right?” Harry’s eyes grow wide and he begins to apologise profusely causing you to laugh “it’s fine, really it’s fine, quiet funny actually” you smirk. Harry’s cheeks has gone cherry red and was shaking his head to himself “I’m so sorry, I shouldn’t have assumed anything, but either way the invitation stands” he says softly. You nod and smile “It’ll be just me, but I’d love to be there” you say softly causing Harry to smile “great”. You finalise a few other details for the company party before you head out making your way straight to Joel’s office.

“You will never guess what just happened” you giggle sitting down. Joel takes one look at you and speaks up “baby girl, have you slept?” He asks. You simply shake your head “no and that’s not what I was coming to tell you, Harry thought you and I were a couple” Joel breaks out in hysterical laughter “that’s the funniest shit I’ve ever heard, no offence sweetheart your adorable but even if I was straight your not my type” you pout a little “thanks?” You say softly not sure if it was really a compliment or not. “So it sounds like you and our hunky CEO are getting along?” Joel asks with a knowing look “I guess we are, he invited me to an after party at his place, he’s been really nice I don’t know what’s going on but it’s kind of hot” you sigh annoyed that you found yourself attracted to a man you usually despise.

“Don’t get too caught up ma’am, remember you saw him on a date like three days ago.” Joel reminds you. You tilt your head to one side for a moment thinking about his words “I guess your right, I hadn’t really thought of that” Joel shakes his head a little “babes you just need to get laid it’s been too long, what about that Tom guy from HR didn’t he ask for your number?” You nod “yeah he never texted me but maybe I’ll get drunk enough at this holiday party that I’ll make a move on him, but that’s a later problem right now I need your help to pick a dress can we go shopping after work?” You ask. Joel smirks “we could go now?” You glare at him “it’s only 4:30” Joel just nods and glares back “yeah and you’ve been here since 6:30 and been up all night and not had a lunch break so news flash sunshine we’re going” you groan a little “fine, let me go and grab my things” you say heading off to your office.

You head up to your office and grab your bags swinging by the legal receptionist desk “Hey Maria, I’m heading out for the day, just forward any of my calls to my mobile” you smile softly she nods before you begin to walk off “oh Y/n wait!” She calls out standing up coming after you “Mr Styles assistant dropped this off for you earlier” she says passing you an envelope you thank her before continuing back to Joel’s office. You open the envelope to find a note ‘consider this a bonus on top of your bonus, thank you for all of your incredible work, I’d be lost without you - H x’ you blush reading his note as you walk into Joel’s office. You pull out a cheque for five thousand dollars and gasp a little only expecting it to be a small amount. Joel looks up at you “what’s wrong?” He asks “Harry just gave me a bonus on top of my Christmas bonus…. And a note that’s ridiculously sweet” you pass it over to Joel who’s quickly reads over it and smiles “he’s got the hots for you, c’mon if your going to end up fucking the CEO after the holiday party the least you can do is look ridiculously hot”

******

Saturday morning. The day of the holiday party. It had both you and Harry all kinds of nervous. You and Joel had come to the venue first thing to help them set up before heading home around lunch time to start getting ready. “Do you really think Harry is going to like this dress?!” You call out from your walk in robe. Joel soon appears in the doorway “wow, now I’m no straight man but damn sweetheart you look fucking incredible, I’m so glad they had that dress in your size” his compliment causes you to smile a little looking yourself over in the mirror again. Joel had found the dress and you were initially a little skeptical that it was too much but you felt amazing in it.

The red fabric hugged your hips perfectly and the low back really complimented your shape, you pop some earrings in and some perfume on before grabbing a coat.

Arriving you see there’s already quiet a few people at the venue. You hand your coat over to the clerk before heading into the venue seeing several familiar faces. You take a moment to take the room in, everything was perfect. Joel nudges your side a little “you’ve outdone yourself….someone’s already gawking at you” he smiles “enjoy tonight please, I’m going to go and cause some trouble” he smiles heading away from you leaving you standing at the entrance. You look over towards Harry and see him staring at you not at all involved in the conversation around him. You decide to play hardball and head over to the bar first grabbing yourself a drink mingling with a few people.

About an hour passes you’d kept your eye on Harry and found him already looking at you almost every time you caught his eye. Next thing you know Harry is at the front of the venue with a microphone in hand. This was his usual every year, he would make a speech thanking everyone for another year of hard work. “Hi everyone, thank you all for coming out tonight, I’ll keep this short and sweet, I just want to thank you all for the hard work and effort you’ve put in this year, I just wanted to highlight a few that have gone above and beyond this year, Joel in marketing you’ve done some incredible stuff this year and boosted our exposure ten fold so thank you. Tania in development you and your entire team have put a lot of hours in and given us some of our best ideas this year and finally, Y/n our legal exec, Y/n goes above and beyond every single year with late nights, early mornings and sometimes missing out on sleep all together because the CEO is a bit of an ass” the room erupts in a sea of laughter as you smile a little watching Harry who was watching you “Y/n is also the reason we have a holiday party each year, she organises every last detail so on behalf of everyone thank you Y/n we appreciate you so much. And thank you everyone for coming out, now please go and enjoy your night blow off some steam!” Harry chuckles as everyone cheers as glasses begin clinking together as people toast.

You sip on your drink and glance over at Harry again noticing he was making his way over to you “Hi” he smiles softly “Hey” you respond “nice speech” you smirk trying to hold in your giggle. He chuckles softly “well you do way more than I expect of anyone you deserve the recognition” you shrug a little “the bonus check ontop of my bonus check was a bit much, but thank you Harry, I really appreciate it” you smile softly he chuckles a little looking at his feet “you deserve it and I would definitely be lost without you…” Harry pauses for a moment “you umm, you look stunning by the way that dress…wow” he sighs out. You blush and smile softly “thank you, you scrub up pretty well yourself Harry” from a corner you hear Joel calling out to you you sigh a little “sorry I better go rein him in, see you later?” You ask placing your hand on Harry’s forearm he nods smiling “of course” he says softly helping you off the bar stool you were perched on before leaning down to kiss your cheek.

You reach Joel who was just standing giggling at you clearly tispy “What the hell man, I was just talking to Harry and your big mouth just had to but in” Joel glares at you “excuse me Miss thing back that attitude up” you bat your eyes looking back at him “fine, I’m sorry, what’s up?” You ask “I was just talking to Harry’s assistant, that girl he was with at the bar when we saw him, complete doozy his assistant said she keeps calling him at work and he keeps screening her calls saying he’s not in or he’s busy” you look at Joel before scanning the room finding Harry chatting to Bess “ok, so?” You ask coming back to Joel “are you insane?! He gives you cute notes, bonuses and just talked about you like the sun shines out of your ass, he wants you dummy” you groan a little “but I hated him like a week ago” Joel grabs your shoulders “who cares? He’s got the hots for you and let’s be real you only hated him because of work crap, you actually don’t really know him they well, I’m not saying to have to marry him just go and have fun, let your hair down please” Joel begs you sigh and admit defeat, heading back to the bar for another drink.

Waiting for your order you hear someone slide in next to you, thinking it was Harry you turn and smile only to see if was Luke one of the office rascals, he did this to you at almost every work event, got up close and personal, making moves on you and using every derogatory joke in the book, you turned him down every single time. He’s appalling. You quickly turn away from him “awww c’mon sweet cheeks, got any love for Lukie?” He questions you groan a little not wanting to hear another word out of his mouth you feel him move closer to you and his breath that reeked of alcohol next to your ear “with an ass like that you’d have enough love for three of me-" he mumbles your drink arrives before he finishes his sentence. You walk away towards the bathrooms needing a moment to yourself.

Luke was the kind of guy that never took a hint so when you rounded to corner down the corridor to the bathrooms you turn a little and see him following you catching up to you quite quickly, “Go away Luke” you call out wanting to be left alone. He rounds you preventing you from making it to the bathroom “what’s wrong baby, we’re just having fun” he says inching closer towards you backing you against a wall “Luke leave me alone please” you beg scared for whatever fantasy he has going on in his head in one swift move he pins you against the wall your back slamming up against the brick kncocking your drink from your hand and some of your breath from your lungs. His knee moved  between your thighs preventing you from kicking out against him his hands trying to make their way up your dress but trying to wrangle your arms as you try to push him away. “Luke get off me!” You yell as he leans in trying to connect his lips with any part of you he could get his mouth on.

Thrashing and panting in his arms trying to break away from his hold one of his hands starts to move up the slit in your dress, tears sting your eyes your lip trembling about to accept what was going to be your fate when all of a sudden it was as though Luke’s body weight had never been upon you. Without even thinking you drop to the floor covering your face sobbing into your knees trying to cover as much of yourself as you could feeling overly exposed. All you could hear was two men yelling at one another and the echo of fists making contact with skin rung through the corridor until finally everything stopped. All that could be heard were your sobs, you felt someone kneel down next to you causing you to shudder and hold yourself tighter. “Hey hey hey” the voice whispers reassuringly “it’s just me” you recognised Harry’s voice, but you didn’t want to look at him in your current state he places his hands next to your elbows trying his best to comfort you “c’mon, let’s get you out of here for a moment” he whispers.

Very slowly you stand still not wanting to make eye contact with him, with either of them, once you’re upright he slips his blazer off placing it over your shoulders “is there anything I can get you, do you want Joel instead of me?” He offers politely. You simply shake your head not really wanting to talk or even think. Harry begins to guide you outside to get some air. You weren’t sure who he was speaking to but you heard him talking to someone “make sure that piece of shit never steps foot in my company building again, he’s not welcome to pack his desk either, there will be nothing left of it” Harry’s tone was stern but very reassuring, he had your back right now and its exactly what you needed.

Sitting down outside your still hadn’t worked up the courage to look at Harry he just sat with you in silence ready to listen if you needed him to. You eventually break the silence when Harry hands you a clean tissue from his pocket “thank you” you whisper, quieter than you’d ever been, you soon follow up “I’m sorry” you glance up a little to look at Harry who was looking at you with a red mark to his jaw but with nothing but concern for you “please….don’t apologise” Harry whispers in reply “none of this was your fault, he’s a tool” Harry whispers taking your hand in his rubbing the top of your knuckles softly “is there anything I can do?” He asks shaking your head you move to rest your temple on Harry’s shoulder the come down from all the adrenaline making you sleepy.

You stay like that for what felt like hours, not speaking, just sitting “I think I want to leave” you say softly hugging Harry’s blazer closer to you taking a deep breath in “want me to take you home?” He asks it was evident in his voice he felt more uncomfortable about leaving you alone after what he just witnessed. You nod a little “yes please”. Harry wraps an arm around you hugging you a little “need me to grab anything for you?” He asks softly “I- I left my coat inside….but please don’t leave me Harry” you beg you voice beginning to shake. Harry scoops you up holding you to his chest rubbing your back “it’s ok, you’re ok I promise, I’m not going anywhere” you both stay put until you calm down again “how about, we walk around to the front of the venue and get your coat so no one sees and then we can go?” He asks you nod softly in his chest “thank you” you whisper softly.

Harry helps you to your feet before guiding you around to the front of the venue you go to walk up to collect your coat when you stop “I’m sorry Harry” he shakes his head “please y/n don’t apologise, he was being an ass hat” you shake your head “I’m sorry that he hit you” Harry let’s out a huff, when you look up at him he was smiling at you “I’d happily take a few hits if it means stopping him from getting to you y/n, please don’t apologise for his shitty behaviour” he says softly holding a hand out to help you up the steps to the front entrance to collect your coat. Taking Harry’s hand you felt safe so safe that once you made it back into the venue you didn’t want to let go. Harry let you hold his hand to collect your coat, walk to his car even on the drive home he never once asked you to let him go. Pulling up outside of your apartment you just stare at the building not wanting to get out Harry gives your hand a squeeze “why don’t you stay in my guest room tonight?” He asks “I want you to feel safe” he adds you look over at him and nod “please” you whisper Harry just nods and smiles.

Harry came up to your apartment to help you grab a few things but in reality you just didn’t want to be alone. You sit in silence on the car ride to Harry’s. Making it up to his penthouse he helps you get settled showing you the guest room and bathroom. He lets you get settled and into some comfy warmer clothes while he makes you both something to eat as you make your way back to the open living and dining space Harry makes his way to you with a cup in hand as the smell of eggs fills your senses “hot chocolate?” Harry offers you nod smiling a little for the first time tonight “thank you” you take the mug from Harry’s hands and sip the warm liquid. “Are you hungry? I’m making omelettes” Harry offers you nod a little “yes please.”

You follow Harry back to the kitchen and sit at the kitchen island watching him cook “thank you” you say after a few minutes after you sat down “I’m sorry I haven’t always been the nicest employee ever” Harry turns a little smiling at you “you’re probably one of the only employees who’s is completely honest with me and I really respect that and appreciate it, so I should be thanking you” you couldn’t help but blush a little.

You and Harry ate together and chat for most of the night, you happened to glance at your phone and see it was almost midnight “Harry weren’t you supposed to be having an after party here?” You ask. He nods “I actually decided to cancel, my staff as individuals come first, especially when without them I’d probably be broke” he jokes you smile a little “I’m sure on the back of such a successful music career it would take a while for you to go broke” Harry chuckles before you reach out rubbing your thumb over the growing bruise on his jaw “y’ok?” You ask softly Harry nods taking your hand in his “I’m ok, I want you to be ok though” he says softly you shrug a little “I’ll be ok, I think it just shocked me more than anything I didn’t expect it to happen” Harry’s brows crease “you shouldn’t expect it to happen, no one should expect for something like that to happen to them” you sigh looking down and yours and Harry’s hands “I don’t even know why I reacted the way I did” you let out a shaky breath trying to hold your tears in “because it’s never happened before? Because I should be able to provide you with a safe workplace” you let out a little scoff as some tears slip “I wish I could say it’s never happened before” Harry sighs standing “shit” he mumbles softly pulling you into his chest “I’m so so sorry” he holds you close as you give in letting your tears fall staining Harry’s white dress shirt with your tears and makeup.

After what felt like forever you calmed down and collected yourself, looking up at Harry you see him trying to hold back his own tears “I’m so sorry that happened to you, I’m sorry for every shitty man you’ve ever had to put up with, no one deserves to go through that” Harry places a kiss to your hair still holding you close “thank you for looking after me” you mumble sighing out, “Anytime” Harry whispers softly.

*****

Once you had both collected yourselves Harry got you set for the night in the guest room, but part of you didn’t know what to do, you felt too disgusted to even think about sleeping but you were more tired than ever. Then there was the fact that you were at your bosses place in his guest bedroom in your underwear. Harry had really gone above and beyond for you in the last few weeks and you had been so tough on him prior to that. You felt terrible.

At around 4:30 your usual alarm started sounding from your phone you rolled over groaning a little turning it off sitting up a little, you sigh a little and drag yourself out of bed to the bathroom before heading out to the kitchen for a glass of water you head out to the couch and sit down watching as the London breeze moves the trees in the park across the road. You sigh softly you pull your knees up to your chest it wasn’t long before the kitchen light flicked on. You turn in your seat looking over to see Harry in track pants, chest bare.

You sit just watching your boss making coffee, it was such a mundane activity, you’d never really thought of him doing these things himself, you figured he had a whole team of people that did a lot of these things for him. “Morning” you say loud enough for Harry to hear. His head pops up looking in your direction “Hey” he smiles, “I thought you’d be asleep still” you shrug a little “I couldn’t really sleep” you sigh getting up to sit across from Harry at the kitchen island. “Coffee?” He asks, you nod slightly “yes please” Harry passes you a cup before coming to sit next to you. “I won’t stay long I’ll just have this and order an Uber” you say softly glancing over at him “don’t rush please it’s only just gone 5am, besides it’s nice having company” he starts before sipping from his cup.

“I’d love to hear more about you, and how you plan on helping me run Pleasing permanently” Harry’s statement causes your ears to perk up. You look over at him confused as ever “what are you talking about?” You ask softly he just grins “I don’t need to wait for the rest of the quarter, you’ve proved to me this week that I’ve been doing things wrong, and I’d love your help to fix it, Adam gave his notice Thursday his family want to move back to the US and put their roots down permanently I had a month to find someone to fill the position but I think I’ve already done it” Harry says glancing at you trying to hold in his smile.

“Is this a joke?” you ask not believing Harry completely he just laughs before turning to look directly at you “Miss Y/L/N, I would like to formally offer you the position as the new COO for an immediate start….please say yes, the CEO’s been on my back about this” he whispers the last part causing you to giggle before nodding biting your lip softly “Ok…I’ll do it” you smile, Harry just about jumps out of his seat “are you serious?” He asks, you just nod giggling a little “yeah I’d love to” you smile Harry jumps off his seat pulling you into a tight hug. “Thank you, thank you, thank you” Harry whispers kissing your head softly.

You pull away looking up at Harry who was already smiling down at you. You reach up running your hand over the bruise that had popped up on Harry’s jaw from the night before you sigh a little. Harry moves to cup your cheeks shaking his head a little “it’s ok” he whispers. He leans down a little to rest his forehead against yours but hesitates “sorry, I should have thought about that more” he pulls away a little.

Before you even thought about what you were doing you pulled Harry back down to you connecting you lips to his in a quick kiss. Harry stumbles back a little shocked at your actions. He looks at you wide eyed panting a little you feel the heat rise in your cheeks embarrassed at what you’d done. “I- I’m sorry” you whimper hastily making your way back to the guest room ordering an Uber while you pack your things. Harry waits a moment trying to process what had just happened “y/n” Harry’s says softly standing in the doorway “I’m sorry Harry, I’m- I’m just going to go” you say softly pulling your bag over your shoulder pushing past Harry heading to the front door “y/n wait please” he sighs trying to head after you. Before Harry could go after you you’d slipped outside and into your Uber.

******

You spent the better half of the rest of the weekend feeling like that dumb cliche employee. Monday morning rolled around and you were dreading it more than ever. You’d have to face Harry and more than likely face the millions of questions to where you disappeared to on Saturday.

Parking your car you sigh a little just sitting for a moment trying to hype yourself up enough to go inside. You hadn’t heard from Harry all weekend Joel had tried to text and call but when you never replied he stopped. You wanted to talk to him about this in person and God knows he’ll be sitting in your office waiting for you when you finally make it up there.

You drag yourself inside and head up to your office. You should get into betting, just as you expected Joel was sitting in your chair waiting for you when you walked in the door “Hi lovely” he says giving you a sympathetic look. “You already know?” You ask “I think everyone does” he says softly you groan a little sitting across from him “but I do have some questions, where did you go? After I tried to call and you didn’t answer I went over to your place and it looked like there was no one there but your car was in your spot” you bite your lip softly knowing there was no talking yourself out of this one. “Umm, Harry let me stay at his place for the night, I didn’t want to be alone”

Joel’s eyes go wide as he grips the edge of your desk “I’m sorry ma’am he let you stay with him? I don’t want to break away from the main issue here but that a big thing for even you to be ok with” you shrug “he did literally everything to help me feel safe, then I fucked it up Sunday morning by giving him a peck on the lips and then running out of there like a 15 year old girl” Joel sighs running his hands through his hair “I’ve known you for a while now, whatever is going to happen with you and him will happen, and I know you’ll work it out, I was honestly just coming to make sure that your ok” he says standing up coming around to hug you tightly “I will be I promise” you mumble into his shoulder hugging him back “text me if you need anything?” He asks you nod before he lets you go kissing your temple before heading out.

Sitting at your desk sighing softly you felt guilty. Like you’d just left out a major detail of the weekend where you would essentially become Joel’s boss, well, everyone’s boss really just a step under Harry. You get settled in for the morning working through the piles of papers on your desk. Just before lunch your office phone rings. You jump a little before picking it up “legal, it’s Y/n” you say softly pushing some papers away “hey, it’s just Harry, have you got some time to come up and talk about your new contract?” He asks. You suck your teeth for a moment “umm yeah, sure, I’ll be up in a few” you say softly.

Heading up to Harry’s office you couldn’t help but hesitate to knock on his door. You knock softly and instantly cringe realising how awkward this was going to be. Harry calls out for you to come in. You smile softly as you walk in and Harry looks up from his computer “hey” he smiles wide standing up “how are you?” He asks leaning against his desk you blush a little “I’m good Harry, what’s up?” You ask, “I have something to show you” he smiles “follow me” he says softly heading out of his office. You follow suit heading away from Harry’s office to another. “I thought you might like an upgrade” he smiles softly motioning to the door with your name and new position on it “wow, you work quick here Styles” you giggle softly. “Well I wanted to make sure it was perfect” he smiles softly opening the door letting you in first you smile wide at the newly decorated office.

The walls were a light grey but still crisp and relaxing a timber accent wall behind your desk to lighten the room up. Harry had even decorated with a new, bigger desk than the one you already had, a new desktop and some plants scattered around your office “I um, noticed you had some plants in your office I thought you might like some more” he says softly from behind you “Harry, thank you so much I love it” you smile turning to face him to find him already staring at you.

Biting your lip softly you speak up “Harry I wanted to apologise, for Sunday morning I shouldn’t have done that” you say softly. He shakes his head “it’s ok, honestly. I was actually going to ask if you were free for dinner tonight?” He asks nervously letting out a breath that he felt he’d been holding in forever. You glance at your feet before nodding a little “I’d be ok with that” you smile softly. Harry tried to hide the childish grin plastered across his face “great, I’ll come and find you later?” He asks. You nod smiling a little “oh feel free to move into your new office whenever you’re ready, Adam decided to work from home for his last week so this is all yours whenever you want” Harry says softly stepping closer to you.

“I just wanted to say thank you, you really saved my butt on this, I think we’ll make a great team” you look up at Harry your breathing unsteady as Harry leans down to peck your cheek. You blush a little before there’s a knock on the door making you both jump stepping away from one another.

“Mr Styles there’s a phone call for you” his assistant calls out. Harry steps closer again his hand slowly falls to your waist squeezing a little “take a message please” he calls out softly looking into your eyes “happy?” He asks softly you nod moving your hands to rest on his chest “very happy” you smile softly as Harry’s hands snake around your waist. “Y’know I kind of didn’t like you when I first started here, but you’ve grown on me really quickly H” you admit glancing up to Harry’s eyes seeing him chuckle a little “hmm, I love being called H” he smiles before letting out a shaky breath “is this ok? I don’t want to push anything or go to fast I-” you cut him off before he could finish “Harry it’s ok, I trust you” you whisper.

Harry smiles widely leaking down kissing your forehead softly before pulling you in for a hug. You sigh softly relaxing into his chest, it was only a few moments of complete relaxation before your phone began to ring. You slowly pull away from Harry’s warmth glancing at your phone “it’s Maria…I should probably answer it” Harry smirks a little “probably just passing a message on from your boss, I hear he’s hard to please” he smiles as you release from his hold to grab your phone.

“Hi Maria, everything ok?” You sit at the end of your new desk as you talk to Maria, she soon brings up a job you’d be working on for a few weeks you move to the desk chair logging into the desktop phone held to your ear with your shoulder as Harry just watched you. After around twenty minutes and a few transfers of the call it finally ended and Harry was still patiently waiting for you sat on the sofa smiling at you.

“What’s that look for Mr Styles?” You ask trying to hold back your smile to hide how much you enjoyed this. “Just thinking about how glad I am that you said yes to this job, you’re perfect for it” Harry smiles you blush and giggle a little “I’m glad I said yes too” your phone begins to ring again causing you to sigh a little “I should get back to my old office, but I’ll see you later?” You ask standing up Harry following suit “definitely” he smiles you come over kissing his cheek softly.

******

The rest of your day flew, you hardly got a chance to look at your phone the rest of the day. When your finally caught up with everything it was almost 6:30 and you hadn’t heard from Harry yet, everyone else had started to head home you wanted to try and get as much work done before you moved out of this job for good. You go so caught up the next time you checked the clock is was 8pm you started to pack up your things to head home when your office phone began to ring. You recognised the extension as Harry’s office you pick up smiling a little “Hey Harry” you sit down again “Hey, so I was thinking considering I’ve left it pretty late to go out for dinner, how about I order in for us? Maybe I could help you move office tonight as well?” He asks you blush and giggle a little you felt like a giddy teenager “that sounds great, I’ll start packing some stuff up” “I’ll meet you in your office in a few” Harry responds you nod a little “sounds great H, see you soon” you smile before hanging up.

Harry felt genuinely nervous to spend some time alone with you that wasn’t after a traumatising event. He really wanted to get to know you better but didn’t want to go to fast. Harry ordered some dinner for you both setting it out in your new office before heading to your old office finding you still working “Hope your boss pays overtime” he smirks leaning against the door frame “he’s buying me dinner so I can’t complain” you wink as he walks in “c’mon, it’s only Monday and you’ve been here for 12 hours dinners in your new office” he smiles holding a hand out to you.

You gladly take it looking around your office a little “mind grabbing a box?” You ask look at them all scattered around your office “of course” he smiles picking up a couple of boxes stacking them on then each other. You grab a box of your own a few other bits and bobs. You walk with Harry in silence to your new office “it’s kind of scary only being down the hallway from you instead of on an entirely different floor” Harry chuckles “I didn’t know I was that scary” he glances in your direction “I wouldn’t say scary, maybe a little bit intimidating, but I think I’ll get used to it” you smile up at him turning into your new office seeing Harry had set dinner out already “H….you did all this already” you say softly looking around placing the boxes in your desk. “Thank you” you smile as Harry places the boxes he had next to yours and kissing your cheek on his way back up “my pleasure” he says softly cheeks a little red.

*******

Sitting down to dinner with Harry was honestly a little…awkward to say the least but in a good way, in a goofy way. The last time you sat down together in a work environment like this you basically argued about how legal should work. But this was a nice change, a mundane change. “So..” Harry starts “tell me more about yourself, I know where you went to uni and I know what you do for work so tell me about siblings, home life all that fun stuff” He finishes sipping from his water as you kick your heels off tucking one leg under the other on your seat. “Ok, I’m the oldest of four kids, my siblings Jared, Nick and Ashlinn think it’s crazy that I work for you. Grew up on a farm outside of Cheltenham then moved to Oxford and you know the rest” you say softly glancing at Harry. “Wait” Harry chuckles “why do they think it’s crazy?” He asks “well because you’re you, Harry Styles had, or still has, a successful music and acting career and is CEO of multimillion dollar company.” Harry hides his grin “well their sister is quiet impressive herself” he says glancing up at you as you try to hide your red cheeks.

“Tell me something no one knows” he says softly you giggle a little “like what?” You retort, Harry just shrugs “there has to be some deep dark secret there that no one knows” he says grabbing some more food you think about it for a moment “oh here’s one….I had a major crush on you growing up, when you were on x-factor……I don’t know why I told you that, it’s kind of embarrassing”. Harry laughs scooting a little closer to you “that’s actually really sweet, can I ask what changed? We’ve had a rocky work relationship the last few years.” You ponder Harry’s question for a moment “when I started here I loved it, and I still do now but in between I think I felt a little like the legal exec at the time was taking advantage of my commitment to the job which meant I resented you because he always blamed you, I think I just needed to see that young kid with curly hair in the CEO that I work with now, and I have, and he’s one of the nicest people I know here” you smile a little “you’re too nice to me Y’know that” you giggle a little “you just grew on me, I guess especially over the weekend, I’ve never felt so supported until that moment so thank you.”

Harry shrugs “honestly you’re my favourite employee I trust you more than anyone here m’glad we’re getting along better, m’glad I offered you the legal execs job, that’s not the first time I’ve been told he was hard to work with, I’m sorry some of my staffing decisions haven’t been the best” you start shaking your head “don’t apologise Harry, jobs interviews are basically just trying to judge someone character is half an hour it’s hard to do” you giggle a little turning your body to face Harry more your knees touching “what about you H, tell me about you and your family” he shrugs a little “there’s probably not much you don’t already know, I’ve got mum and Gemma they’re both really supportive….I’ve always found this really difficult trying to get to know people when they already know everything about me.” Y/n was giving Harry her undivided attention she understood where we was coming from because he was right she already knew a lot about him.

****

You and Harry finished up dinner and moved the rest of your office before moving back to the couch sitting next to one another “I haven’t told anyone yet, about the job offer, not even Joel” Harry glances at you “are you worried?” He asks softly you shrug moving to rest your head on his shoulder lightly “a little bit, it’ll be ok right?” You ask, your anxieties really coming to light. Harry nods wrapping an arm around you “your going to do great, I wouldn’t have asked if I didn’t think you could do it” he says softly placing a kiss to your hair you hum a little snuggling into him a little more a wave of fatigue coming over you “we should get out of here, it’s almost 1am” you mumble trying to stifle a yawn. Harry chuckles a little “c’mon, I’ll walk you to your car” he smiles before standing up.

Harry holds his hands out to help you up which you gladly take. He pulls you up a little too quickly causing your tired body to jump into Harry’s. His hands move to your waist to steady you “y’ok?” He chuckles looking down at you. You nod rubbing your eyes a little “y’too cute” he smirks you smile a little “your not bad yourself Styles” you say wrapping your arms around his neck edging him closer towards you. Harry begins to slowly edge his lips closer to your and then back a little as if he was having his own internal struggle “you wanted to know about me?” He asks softly referring to your earlier conversation. You nod a little as Harry sticks your hair behind your ear, he pauses for a moment letting out a shaky breath. “I was harsh on you on purpose...” he starts “because I find you really attractive…I didn’t want to let myself get too caught up if you had a partner or if you weren’t looking for anything but I think working closer with you these last few weeks seeing how compassionate you are and how strong you are-“ even though he was pouring out his feelings to you, you couldn’t let him finish because you knew how you felt about him already. You wrap your arms around his shoulders pulling him in for a kiss, nothing to extravagant just enough for him to realise you didn’t need to hear anymore because you already knew.

His hands automatically drop to your waist pulling you closer to him you smile on his lips Harry hums against you one hand moving to cup your cheek softly. He slowly pulls away looking into your eyes trying to read how you were feeling and where the sudden confidence came from to kiss him. Harry grinned at you like a kid “sorry” he chuckles a little “I didn’t mean to just stare at you” he pulls away a little seemingly catching his breath. “It’s ok” you say softly “we should get home…” Harry says softly, you shrug a little “Honestly we have to be back here so soon we may as well just sleep here” Harry looks at you a crease present in his brows “why’d I get the feeling you’ve done that before” he says softly you shrug a little “I won’t confirm or deny” you knew Harry could read straight through you in that moment. You’d done it before on several occasions in fact.

“Well if you’re going to be too stubborn to go home then it’s only fair I stay here too” you giggle a little “c’mon then I’ve got a spot” you take Harry’s hand leading him to the elevator “it goes without saying, this is kind of my secret spot, not even Joel knows about it but as my boss please don’t get mad at me” Harry wraps an arm around your shoulder as you lean into him “not making any promises” he says softly before kissing into your hair, you glance up at him “I’m joking” he chuckles “your dedication is what keeps this place going half the time I don’t think I could ever actually be mad at you, frustrated, maybe. But not mad” he smiles softly as the elevator dings to the very top floor.

It was smaller than all the other floors, which is why it was used for storing spare furniture, sometimes you came up here just for some peace and quiet, it also had the best views in the building, Harry thought it was his office, but he was wrong.

The nights you stayed too late were the nights you ended up sleeping up here and using the office gym to shower and change to make it look like you had been home. “What are we doing up here?” Harry asks as you lead him towards one of the offices that you’d basically turned into a bedroom “this is my little spot, for me” you say softly opening the office door to reveal the makeshift bed, with blankets and pillows and an overnight bag on the floor holding a spare change of clothes and some comfy clothes for you to sleep in. “Ok” Harry says softly “I’m not mad, but I am a little concerned to how much overtime you probably haven’t been paid for since you worked here, sweetheart be honest with me, how often do you stay the night at work?” Harry asks dropping your hand to look at you properly. You shrug a little “once a week sometimes twice, it just depends really, on really bad weeks I’ve stayed up to four nights, I go home on my lunch breaks to get more clothes.”

Harry stares at you in awe “why did you never tell anyone?” He asks genuinely shocked by what you were telling him “it’s my choice Harry, I truely love my job, but it takes sacrifice” you say looking down at your feet. Harry sighs softly kissing your forehead “thank you” he whispers softly “for every single thing you do I don’t think I’ll ever be able to thank you enough” he says wrapping his hands around yours bumping his nose to yours “thank you” you say softly “this is kind of my favourite place, look at the view” you tug Harry’s hand a little.

“I already like the view” Harry says pecking your lips softly you giggle against Harry’s lips “I’m serious you goose” you say after he pulls away you tug Harry’s hand again causing him to turn to look out the window “wow” he exhales looking out at the London sky line “I’ll never get used to being home all the time” he says softly you snuggle into Harry’s side a little “cold?” He asks softly you nod it wasn’t very well heated up on the top floor “c’mon let’s get tucked in….umm, do you mind if I sleep in my boxers?” He asks nervously “no not at all” you smile up at Harry kissing his cheek before grabbing your bag taking out some clothes before slipping out to the bathroom leaving Harry to get comfortable.

Arriving back Harry was snuggled into the makeshift bed with just about every blanket and throw over him waiting for you he smiles in your direction an oversized jumper covering a quarter of the way down your thighs. “This is quiet domestic of us” Harry’s says softly pushing the covers back for you. You giggle a little climbing in next to him “it is, I hope it’s comfortable, half the time I’m so tired by the time I get up here I just fall asleep” Harry smiles a little turning to you “it’s surprisingly comfortable” he says softly you raise an eyebrow at him “ok it’s not the most comfortable thing ever, but I’m not worried about comfort” he says smiling a little.

“Do we need a pillow wall?” You ask jokingly. Harry chuckles “I think we’ll be ok don’t you?” He asks you nod smiling “I was joking” you giggle. Harry smiles as you lean over to kiss his cheek. “Goodnight Harry” you whisper softly snuggling down into the covers already becoming groggy due to current lack of sleep. “Goodnight y/n” Harry whispers before you fall asleep.

*****

Waking up the next morning the weather was less than pleasant, you were almost hugging the side of the bed trying to keep some distance between you and Harry. It had been a confusing 72 hours to say the least between kissing Harry, accepting a new position and now sleeping in the same dodgy ass bed with him you didn’t know what to think about any of it. You sigh a little rolling over expecting to bump into Harry but finding nothing.

You sit up looking around the room seeing no one else there you sigh a little look at the time seeing it was only 6:30 you drag yourself from the bed packing everything up before grabbing your overnight bag heading down to the work gym you shower and get yourself ready for the day. Heading down to your car to drop your overnight bag in the trunk you see Harry pulling in. He steps out of his car coffee and breakfast in hand a Pleasing hoodie hugging his torso.

“Good morning” you say softly causing Harry to jump “Hi” he smiles before glancing at his watch “it’s early, I thought you’d be asleep still” you shrug a little “honestly this is like a sleep in for me” you giggle a little Harry just smiles looking you up and down “I love that sweater” he chuckles referring to cream coloured knit with lemons on it. “How does coffee and breakfast in your new office sound?” He asks beginning to head to the elevator to take you both back inside “I would say you know how to keep a girl happy H” you smirk glancing in his direction.

You both climb into the elevator Harry hands you your coffee kissing your temple “I hope I didn’t wake you this morning, you looked so peaceful” he comments as if it wouldn’t just make you melt you just look at him smiling trying to find your words eventually giving up lifting your jaw to close. You make your way up to your office with Harry beside you in silence you sit down together stealing small glances at one another every so often. 8am rolls around and everyone else slowly starts to flow in meaning both yours and Harry’s phones soon started ringing yours first with Joel’s name illuminating your screen “sorry I should grab this” you say softly picking up the device sliding across to answer the call. “Hey you, wha-” you didn’t even get to finish before Joel was booming down the line “what the fuck?! Did you quit?!” He almost screams “What? No why?” You ask “your office is empty” he says genuinely sounding disappointed “oh my goodness honey no, I haven’t had a chance to tell you yet, I’ll be right down don’t move” you say before hanging up.

Looking at Harry the crease in his brow present “is everything ok?” He asks softly you nod “I haven’t told Joel about the promotion and he thinks I’ve left because my old office is empty” you say softly standing grabbing your phone “I’m sorry I’m running out on breakfast” Harry shakes his head taking your hand “it’s ok y/n do what you need to I’m here all day” he smiles a little standing as well grabbing his things “I’ll see you later?” He asks softly, you nod as he pulls you closer checking the coast was clear before pressing his lips to your causing hands to rest just under Harry’s jaw “don’t get us a caught Harry, dunno what the boss would think” you hum against his causing him to chuckle and smile “you’re so cheeky” he chuckles against your lips pecking them a few more times “let me know if you need anything ok?” You nod slowly peeling away from each other.

*****

Racing down to your old office you find Joel sitting in the new bare office “hey” you say softly he looks up at you and you couldn’t read him at all, he looked angry upset and confused all at once but you couldn’t pin point one. “Let’s go talk” you say softly “just tell me one thing…are you leaving?” He asks you shake your head smiling a little “no sweetheart, I’m not leaving” you say “c’mon I have something to show you” he follows you up to the CEO floor, “what are we doing up here?” He asks. “Going to my new office” you smile as you make it to your office door with your name and position printed upon it. Joel looks at the door then back at you then back at the door “that….that’s you, it…it says COO” you nod giggling a little “yeah it does” you say softly letting the information sink in yourself.

“Are you serious? Babes that’s amazing! I’m so proud” he smiles pulling you in for the tightest hug you’ve ever had “thank you” you giggle a little hugging him back “we need to celebrate!” He says pulling away holding your shoulders “drinks Friday night to celebrate you?!” You nod “I would love that! Come in, there’s more to tell you” you say softly opening your office door for Joel. You chat for about an hour and tell him everything about what was going on between you and Harry.

Once you had finished Joel just looked at you a little shocked but also processing everything still “invite him along…on Friday, we can all hang out together and try and sus him out for you” you nod “ok, but hear me out for a second, I like him, he’s actually really sweet, I’d love to spend time with you guys and with him all together it’ll be great” Joel stands coming to hug you “I’m so proud of you, I’m glad that you guys are doing whatever it is that your doing, you’d make a cute couple, and freakin hot power couple I mean look at this, working on the same floor just down the hall from one another” Joel smiles giving you a squeeze causing you to giggle “ok, ok calm down” you laugh. “I better go, my best friends my boss now I don’t want to upset her” he chuckles you pout a little before saying your goodbyes.

****

You spent a large majority of your week on zoom calls with Adam trying to fill in the gaps for the COO job and trying to find someone else to pick up the leftovers in legal now that they were one down. You and Harry had kept things pretty relaxed most of the week you had texted on and off throughout and he had arrived with coffee for you both almost each morning. Starting the morning ritual of coffee a kiss and a little catch up on the main issues for the day. Neither of your had brought up that fact that you weren’t sure what was happening just that you were enjoying being around one another. You didn’t want to leave the little bubble you had created it was comfortable and it felt incredibly safe, just what you needed.

Joel swung past your office Friday afternoon double checking you were still on for the night you assured him for what felt like the 10th time this week that you and Harry would be there on time, with bells on.

At 5:30 you had for once managed to get everything done for the day, you took yourself down to Harry’s office his assistant already gone for the day, you knock softly and hear him call out. You let yourself in smiling softly “hey you….almost ready?” You ask softly moving towards his desk. Harry stands “just finished up, what a day, I didn’t realise how hard my job was going to get when I have such an attractive COO, it’s hard to focus with you walking past all day, especially in those jeans” he teases as his hands move to hold your waist “can I steal a kiss before we go for drinks?” He begs pulling you closer. You giggle wrapping your arms around him “mmm I’m sure I can spare some time for you” you say softly before pressing your lips to Harry’s.

Harry pulls you closer his hands moving lower to grip your rump your hands move to his chest grinning on his lips “can I tell you something?” You ask. Harry nods pulling away for you to look up at him “I kind of missed you this week” you say softly causing Harry to smile “I missed you as well” he sighs softly pulling you back to him kissing you again. After a few more minutes you pull away “c’mon we don’t need to be late, Joel will destroy us both” you say softly. You walk out with Harry keeping a bit of distance between you both you didn’t need investors seeing you all cuddled up to one another.

The walk to the bar got you thinking about what you would say if someone asked what you and Harry were doing. “Hey H” you say softly glancing over at him, he simply hums in response hooking his index finger around your pinkie “what are we going to say if someone asks what we are? We’re not exactly great at keeping our hands off each other” Harry glances at you sucking his lips in “that’s a good point, what would you like to tell them?” He asks you shrug a little “I don’t really know, I know I like you” he takes your hand properly giving it a squeeze, “I’m the same, I don’t really know what I want to tell them but I know I like you” he smiles softly pulling you into him kissing your temple softly you blush a little as you walk up to the bar.

Joel had organised an courtyard table knowing that Friday nights closer to the Holiday season got stupid busy and that you and your work mates liked being outside in the fresh air after being in the office all week. You guide Harry through the crowd of people until you make it outside to the courtyard seeing Joel, Kim and a few other work mates sitting around a table. Joel sees you first, coming over to give you a hug that you gladly accept “I’m so glad you made it” he says softly “me too, I hope you guys haven’t been waiting long” you smile a little pulling away “obviously you know Harry” you giggle a little as Harry smiles at Joel before Joel yanks him in for a hug “look after her, us gays may seem sweet but we’re vicious” he says just loud enough for you to hear. Harry just chuckles “no  intension of going anywhere or hurting her” Harry says smiling in your direction staring at you in awe, you blush a little and kiss his cheek once Joel lets him go you head over to sit down with the rest of the group.

You were all pretty squished up on the picnic style benches and the others couldn’t really stop staring at the fact the CEO was there sitting at the table as well. Joel helps you to get the conversation flowing and after an hours and a few rounds everyone was having a great time, the other girls partners had arrived and Joel was getting you all to help him find someone on Grindr for the weekend. You all ordered some food for the table and being a few drinks in you were getting a little clingy to Harry’s delight it seemed, he had wrapped an arm around your waist pulling you into his side kissing your head causing Kim to shriek “hold the fuck on” she says pointing at you both “wait…are you guys… y/n?” She asks you giggle a little shrugging “we like each other it’s as simple as that” you say shutting down whatever else was going to come out of her mouth next. You look up at Harry who was simply smiling down at you trying to hold in his laugh. “Well I think you two would be adorable together, full on power couple right?” She says looking at Joel who then looks at you “she’s not wrong you know that” he just smirks you nudge him a little before Kim continues “I’m just saying, you know that Dan and I met at my old job and we both really liked each other, poor thing didn’t ask me out until that day I was leaving to work at Pleasing and it’s all worked out we’re engaged now” she says flashing her ring more towards Harry than you, given this was information you knew already.

Harry just reaches for your hand giving it a squeeze not wanting to put any pressure on you about whatever you were both doing you peck the corner of his lips “thank you” you whisper softly you sit around for a while before Harry squeezes your hand again holding up his phone “I gotta take this” he sighs softly you simply nod moving in to kiss his cheek but Harry moves to catch your lips instead smirking when he pulls away “just missed you” he smiles “I’ll be back in a few” he says softly pecking your lips once more. You giggle a little as he walks away to take the call, turning back you find the rest of the table staring at you.

“You have to tell us everything” Siobhan pipes up, you giggle a little and tell them most of what happened at the holiday party the weekend prior “Harry’s hardly left my side all week, it’s kind of comforting knowing he’s just down the hall too, I feel safe with him around, I feel terrible that I used to think he was horrible, he’s actually one of the nicest people I’ve ever met” you groan a little covering your face with your hands “I really really like him” the others were just looking at you giving you their undivided attention “oh my god she’s got the feels” Kim’s partner says you smile a little “I kinda do don’t I? I’m just scared it’s a little too quick I’d love to date Harry but I wanna get to know him better first” you say softly before taking the last sip of your drink “anyone else want another round? Must be my turn to buy?” You ask.

You get everyones order before heading inside to place it. While you wait you check your work emails to make sure nothing major had come up since you’d been out, when a strong pair of arms wrap around you and an all to familiar scent filled your nostrils. You smile a little wrapping your arms around his leaning into his chest “your supposed to be having fun not working” Harry whispers you giggle “says you taking work phone calls in a bar” you retort Harry just smirks placing a few dainty kisses to your neck “wrong Miss Y/L/N it was actually my sister, she was just checking in we do it every week at the same time because we’re both so busy” you turn in Harry’s hold smiling a little “H, that’s so sweet, I’m sorry I shouldn’t have assumed it was work” he shakes his head “it’s ok, I can understand why you would think it’s work, we are there a lot and it never stops” he says as you wrap your arms around his neck “I like your friends” Harry’s whispers his lips a mere inch from yours “really?” You asks smiling he just nods “they’re really fun, and I like that they’re ok with us not labelling things” you hum smiling a little “but, they got me thinking a little bit” Harry continues “I would love to take you on a proper date…if you’d like that?” He asks.

You pause teasing Harry making it seem like you were thinking about his offer “I’d love to H” you smile as Harry pulls you in close “you’re so cheeky sometimes you know that” he smirks before kissing you softly hands squeezing your waist as the bartender placed all the drinks you ordered on a tray for you to carry back out. “Do you guys do this every week?” Harry asks helping you to carry a few drinks back yiu shrug a little “we try to do at least once every two weeks but sometimes it’s more sometimes it’s less just depends on what we all have on, why?” You ask glancing at Harry for a brief moment “I was just wondering, seems like it’s good for morale” as soon as the words leave him mouth glare at him “don’t go all boss on me Styles, don’t overanalyse things, we do it for fun and to blow off steam if we’ve had a hectic week. It’s nice to just socialise with one another outside of work” you say softly making it back to the table placing the drinks down.

Harry moved to take your hands turning you towards him “hey,” he says softly “I’m sorry babe, I didn’t mean to read into it too far” he cups your cheeks kissing your nose before chuckling a little “you look so cute like this” he smiles you shove his chest a little trying to hold in your smile “you just called me babe” you smirk a little Harry jaw drops open to argue back before he stops himself “I guess I did, are you mad about it?” He asks his hands dropping to grip your hips you shake your head “not at all, I kinda like it” you wink smirking up at him before pulling him down til his lips meet yours in a needy kiss, you run your tongue across Harry’s bottom lip before realising your still with all your friends your pull away giggling a little “sorry” you smile seeing Harry looking all flustered he shakes his head a little dropping his head to your ear “what are you doing to me sweet girl” he whispers causing goosebumps to erupt on your skin. You look up at Harry with innocent eyes “stay at my place tonight?” You ask Harry nods leaning down to kiss you once more before you both sit down.

*****

Gathering your things to head home with Harry felt a little odd. Harry had said goodbye to everyone already and was headed out to flag down the Uber he ordered for you both. You did the rounds giving everyone a hug as they all started to collect their own belongings so they could head home too. You make it to Joel and hug him tightly “I was skeptical about this thing with you and Harry, but seeing you with him you look so happy sweetheart and he hardly took his eyes off your tonight, I have a feeling this is more than just liking each other and screwing around for fun” Joel smirks raising an eyebrow you smile a little “well I don’t want to jinx it, but I think that too, he’s everything I’ve ever wanted and more and he’s so damn supportive…he asked me on a proper date because of you guys, so thank you” you smile hugging him once more before saying your goodbyes and heading out to Harry “Hi handsome” you smile walking up behind him kissing his arm he turns to look at you smiling a little phone to his ear he leans down kissing your head softly taking your hand giving it a squeeze you rest your head against his arm as the Uber pulls up.

Halfway to your apartment Harry finishes up his phone call he leans over pecking your cheek placing his hand on your thigh “we have a problem” he sighs softly you look up at him with worried eyes “Luke’s suing for wrongful dismissal….says he didn’t do anything wrong and we had no right to terminate him.” You felt the anger rising and your blood rushing in your veins, you sit up instantly feeling sober “are you fucking shitting me?” You look at Harry already getting angry enough for tears to begin brewing.

“That’s not everything…he’s suing me personally as well and he’s trying to get me with an assault charge for punching him” your jaw drops you felt so incredibly guilty, “Harry I’m so-” he cuts you off before you even begin to apologise “No, please don’t do that pet, he did the wrong thing, we’re going to fight this” you sigh kissing Harry’s cheek hiding your face in his shoulder to hide your tears that we’re trying to escape “what do you we do H?” You ask softly “we’ll he’s trying to make it look like we planned everything down to him coming after you, so my lawyer said we just need to limit our public contact with one another and keep it professional at work, we’ll be ok sweetheart, I promise” Harry says grabbing your hand squeezing it as the Uber pulls up at your apartment. “I should go home” Harry sighs softly “need to do some damage control” he says pulling you in close to hug you you whimper some tears slipping as you nod. “Hey, we’re going to be ok, this isn’t forever he’s just a small problem, c’mere” Harry whispers lifting your chin whipping your tears kissing your head then moving to connect his lips to yours, resting his forehead to yours he sighs softly “I wish I could just sneak you home with me” he smiles a little.

You giggle a little sniffling “me too” you peck Harry’s lips again “I’ll call you in the morning” Harry says placing little kisses over your face “thank you” you smile a little before collecting your things getting out of the Uber you wave a little as the car pulls away.

You turn to your apartment and sigh as your lip begins to tremble again.

Why did this have to happen now.

CHASE EPILOGUE

A/n: get ready for some fluffy shit.

*********

“Hey Mumma” Harry smiles standing at the doorway of your sons room. You look up and smile at Harry as your now six month old suckled at your breast “uh oh, Theo, Daddy’s here for dinner time…and he looks very handsome” you whisper to your little boy who was looking up at you wide eyed as you cradle him close to your chest. Harry settled himself on the floor next to the rocking chair you were nursing in. This had been a regular nightly ritual since you had arrived home with little Theo, you would nurse him while Harry sat on the floor and read to Theo until he was sleepy.

Tonight however was a little different. Theo had had a late nap and was coming out to dinner with you and Harry to see some friends. Mitch and Sarah would be there with their son, Jeff and Glenne were also said to be coming and a few other friends of yours and Harry’s. You readjust Theo once he had finished feeding clipping your nursing bra back up pulling the sleeve of your dress back on properly.

Harry stands holding his arms out to take Theo, you gladly oblige and Harry begins burping Theo. Even though he was at an age where he didn’t need to be burped Theo had been having trouble with moving wind on his own, leading to some late and long nights for you and Harry trying to comfort your crying son. Once Theo has burped a couple of times and you had gotten yourself properly situated Harry reaches out to take your hand helping you up from the rocking chair. Once you were standing Harry kept holding your hand bringing it to his lips kissing the knuckle on your left hand where your engagement ring had been sitting for the last three months.

It was a surprise, even after Harry had told Theo of his intentions while he was still in your belly almost a year and a half ago. Harry’s proposal was perfect, he took you and Theo on a walk along the shoreline one evening and popped the question during golden hour, he was extra sneaky and asked Lloyd to hide out to get some photos of the family of three. These images and several other images of Theo were now dotted around the house, still leaving enough room for any other little pairs of feet that would come along in the future.

“You look absolutely delicious babe” Harry smiles leaning in to peck your lips a hand dropping to your waist before resting on your bum smirking at how the dress you had on hugged you perfectly but still allowed you to feed Theo “and you look so handsome H” you smile pecking his lips reciprocating his earlier movement before leaning over to kiss Theo’s cheek. “I still can’t believe we made him Y’know” you glance up at Harry smiling “he’s just so precious” you whisper leaning your head onto Harry’s shoulder. Harry leans down planting a kiss to your head “me too, I never thought I could love so hard” Harry smiles wrapping his arm around you as you both just admire Theo.

After a few minutes Harry kisses your head softly “we should get going” he whispers. You nod grabbing the nappy bag making sure it was stocked with everything you might need for the evening. Walking out to the car with Harry he buckled Theo into his car seat before holding your door open for you, you tuck your legs in and make sure Theo’s toys we within reach for him to play with. Harry starts the car before turning a little to admire you “hey” he says softly grabbing your attention “I love you” he smiles, you pout a little leaning over kissing Harry softly “I love you too H”.

Arriving to dinner you climb out of the car heading to the backseat getting Theo out from his car seat. You and Harry had opted not to use the stroller for the night just to save the hassle of taking a bulky stroller into the restaurant with you. You place Theo on your hip as Harry grabs his nappy bag placing a hand on you small of your back guiding you into the restaurant where Jeff and Glenne had already arrived. Harry heads over to Jeff hugging him first before moving to Glenne, you do the same but in the opposite order.

Things had remained a little odd between you and Jeff regardless of the amount of effort you put in he never seemed to really accept you as Harry’s partner, you thought this might have changed when you gave birth or at least when you and Harry got engaged but you were still holding out hope it would eventually change to a nice civil friendship. You wait for everyone else to arrive before order dinner and chatting away to everyone, Theo going between you and Harry and even Sarah and Mitch at one point. You always said to Harry you were lucky to have such a relaxed baby, who was mostly more than willing to go to anyone not necessarily always needing you or Harry. As long as he could see one of you he was happy.

You and Harry were both watching Theo with Pauli when you move to rest your hand on Harry’s knee “I love our family so much” you say softly resting your head on Harry’s shoulder “me too” he sighs happily “I still can’t believe we’ve been together two years” Harry smiles taking your hand in his you giggle a little “if someone told me two years ago that we would be engaged and have a baby now I probably would have said they were insane, but I wouldn’t change any of it, I love you so much Harry, I’m so excited to be your wife” you smile up at him leaning in to place a passionate but soft kiss to his lips.

You ate dinner together as one big Love On Tour family before long you had to head off to the bathroom to pump or at the very least express a little bit of milk to stop the aching in your breasts that was starting to make itself known. You kiss Harry’s cheek and Theo’s leaving him in the capable hands of his father for a while. On your return you bump into Jeff who was on his way to the bathroom. “Y/n” Jeff says causing you to turn to face him “I wanted to apologise for how I’ve treated you, it only dawned on me tonight how crappy I’ve really been, seeing Harry with Theo, you’ve done so much for him, he’s a better man and musician because of it, he adores you both so much y/n, he’s really enjoying the family time too. I can honestly say I’m happy that he slowed down to enjoy time with his family, not enough people do that” Jeff smiles. It was probably the first time you’d ever seen Jeff genuinely happy for you and Harry. “Thank you Jeff, that means a lot I never thought we could be so happy” you smile softly Jeff hugs your shoulder briefly “You know I used to think the same about myself and Glenne, I never thought we’d be happier than what we were when we were engaged, but when we got married it was like we got to a whole new level, even now we’re still so in love, I think seeing Mitch and Sarah and you and Harry has got us thinking about kids” he admits making you smile a little “they’re hard work but so worth it, I think you and Glenne would make amazing parents Jeff” Jeff let’s our a small chuckle and smiles “thanks sweetheart, I’ll let you get back to your boys” he smiles before walking away.

Heading back to the table you sit down next to Harry as Theo begins to fuss, Mitch and Sarah had tucked their little man into his stroller and were rocking him to sleep, you figured this was the best time to give Theo another little feed before bed. You sit down next to Harry who was watching cradling Theo talking to Lloyd and Mitch “sorry to interrupt” you whisper softly kissing Harry’s cheek “can I steal our baby for his last feed?” You ask snuggling closer to Harry’s side getting yourself comfortable as he hands Theo to you resting his hand on your leg just wanting to be close to you. You pop just enough of your breast out from your dress for Theo to latch on.

Out of the corner of your eye you spot Harry watching you. He moves to wrap an arm around you kissing your temple softly “almost ready for home Mumma?” He asks softly you look up at him and nod “I think Theo’s ready for home” you smile softly as you and Harry watch your little boy fighting sleep while he was feeding “I think Mitch and Sarah are getting ready to head off too” Harry says softly tucking a loose piece of hair out of your face you rest your head on Harry’s shoulder and melt into his hold a little.

“Jeff and I had a chat earlier” you mention glancing up at Harry briefly “I saw” he smiled “was it all ok?” He asks and you nod “yeah it was actually really nice to just talk to each other Y’know….I think seeing you with Theo got him clucky” you joke causing Harry to chuckle and smile before he responds “I think me seeing you with Theo has got me clucky” he smirks, you giggle and smile up at him “you really want another baby?” You ask. Harry shrugs a little “maybe not right this second, but maybe in the next year or two, I want to enjoy being a family of three and watching Theo grow for a little while” he smiles as Theo begins to fuss popping your nipple from his mouth.

Harry burps him which seemed to be his reason for fussing because before long he had fallen asleep on Harry’s chest. “Stay there” you smile grabbing your phone snapping a quick picture showing Harry who couldn’t help but grin “his cheeks are so cute” he chuckles “he looks like you H” you smile kissing his head softly before leaning over the peck Harry’s lips “we make adorable babies” Harry sighs “should we get him home to bed?” He asks, you nod and start to organise yourselves and say goodbye to everyone buckling Theo into the car and heading home, Harry’s hand resting on your thigh the whole drive home.

Once you arrive home you and Harry both head to Theo’s room tucking him into his crib for the night Harry comes up behind you tucking his hands around your waist kissing your cheek down to your jaw and to your neck before holding you close into his chest “did I mention how much I love you” Harry smirks against your cheek you giggle a little “everyday, but I love you too” you smile turning in his arms kissing him softly.

“Is Mumma ready for bed?” He asks against your lips, you shake your head a little “I think Mumma would like to spend some time with Daddy first” you smirk connecting your lips to Harry’s once more running your tongue over his bottom lip Harry’s hands move to the back of your thighs hoisting you up to wrap your legs around his waist carrying you back to the master bedroom you shimmy out of your dress when Harry lays you down and he stands at the end of the bed just admiring what was finally his “that’s my girl” he smirks before leaning in to kiss you again.

You felt so lucky and so loved. The chase was worth it.

CHASE X

Read the previous part here

Holding Harry’s hand a little tighter you notice how clammy your own had become,

Clammy hands

One of the first signs you were getting anxious, you pause looking up at Harry.

“I…” you start while still looking outside at the paparazzi that we’re floating around the front of the hotel “I’m ready” you whisper softly giving Harry’s hand a squeeze. Harry turns to you cupping your cheeks “Hey” he whispers softly “if it’s too much we don’t have to go out love” you start to shake your head “no, no H, I want to” you plead with him he locks his eyes to yours for a moment trying to read your expression. He leans down placing a kiss to your forehead “ok…I’ll be right there with you, I promise” he smiles down at you before resuming his previous position.

Harry noticed you were still watching all the cameras and people outside he glances in their direction before coming back to you, you had started picking at your cuticles and your legs had become restless. Harry takes your hands in his “babe…” Harry whispers kissing your hands “your nails look so pretty pet, don’t want you to ruin them” Harry pauses for a moment looking around he spots the hotel manager “c’mon love, I’ve got an idea” he smiles taking your hand heading towards the hotel manager, Harry greets her in Italian and presumably asks her some questions. She begins to walk off to a staff only area and Harry follows with you hand in hand.

“Harry where are we going?” You ask tightening your slippery grip on his hand “staff exit” he throws a cheeky smile in your direction, your body instantly relaxes “thank you H” you smile back. The pair make it out onto the street behind the hotel and start to head away from the building toward the night life Italy had to offer.

You slowly make your way past several little shop fronts and restaurants. You couldn’t help but look around, mesmerised by your surroundings. You both walked in a comfortable silence until Harry pulls to towards him his hands moving to your waist leaning down pressing his lips to yours, you giggle a little against him and smile wrapping your arms around his shoulders. Harry slowly pulls away smiling down at you “what was that for?” You ask softly pushing some hair from his eyes, Harry just pecks your nose “just needed to kiss you” he responds causing you to blush.

So beautiful, he thinks staring down at you. He places a soft kiss to your forehead smiling. “Now, if I’m being super honest m’not very organised….so my love, what would you like for dinner? We could get pizza, pasta, seafood, anything you want y/n”. You think for a moment sucking your cheeks in “what about pizza?” You suggest looking up at Harry, his lips curl into a cheeky grin “I have the perfect place” he smiles taking you a few streets over to a tiny pizza place.

Walking in Harry greets an older man who after greeting Harry leading you both out the back to a courtyard, it was a true Italian dream with sandstone floors and vines climbing the walls and the perfect view of the Italian night sky. Harry’s pulls a chair out for you, you lean over kissing his cheek before sitting down. You look around trying to take it all in as Harry sits across from you.

****

Dinner was absolute perfection, you shared a pizza and the most amazing red wine with Harry. After dinner you head out for a walk to get some gelato. Harry’s fingers were intertwined with yours as you wander lazily through the streets of Italy in silence. As your walking to start to notice a few people staring and paparazzi starting to gather snapping pictures of you and Harry. They start calling for Harry and throwing him questions about the tour and upcoming movies and…you.

Harry glances over at you with concern riddled on his face giving your hand w quick squeeze “y’ok?” He asks. You glance over at him and nod quickly your hand gripping his a little tighter.

Clammy hands

They were back and Harry had noticed as well he brings your hand to his mouth kissing your knuckles “you’re ok” he whispers “I promise” Harry pulls you closer to him holding your waist trying to keep the cameras away from you both.

“C’mon, let get rid of them” he smirks pulling you to the gelato place you were heading to you smile a little picking up the pace to keep up with Harry. He jogs into the store with you by his side he pulls you in closing the door behind you locking the door. The Italian lady glares at him from over the counter before she starts speaking to him in Italian he responds in short sentences and next thing you notice she’s smiling widely “what did you tell her?” You giggle looking at Harry “that there were too many people outside and that my girlfriend was overwhelmed and needed somewhere to cool down” he smirks. Your jaw drops “Harry! I hope you didn’t upset her” You exclaim he shakes his head laughing softly “I know, I know, no babe I didn’t tell her that, I told her about the paparazzi” he chuckles pulling you into his chest, “m’sorry, that was mean of me to trick you” he says softly holding your waist your hands moving to his chest.

You smile up at him “I’m sure I can forgive you” you stand up on your tip toes to peck his cheek “this place is beautiful H, I love Italy so much” he places a kiss to your forehead. As he pulls away you hear his phone starting to ring “sorry pet” he whispers letting go of your waist grabbing his phone from his pocket “it’s Jeff” Harry sighs softly answering the call, before he could even get a word in Jeff was jumping down his throat “what the hell did you do?!” He yells down the line, even being a few feet away from you, you still managed to hear.

Harry steps further away not wanting you to hear. Regardless of how far away Harry was you could hear Jeff screaming at him about announcing your relationship and quashing all the Don’t Worry Darling drama with Olivia all in one day Harry stops him halfway through the reprimanding he was getting “Jeff! I know your looking out for me, but I know what’s in my contract for the movie and the PR post filming wasn’t part of it, we both know all of that PR crap was wrong and not fair to y/n at all. I did the right thing by me and by y/n that’s my priority, what if you were in the same spot with Glenne? You’d pick her every time” their conversation goes quiet for a moment before Harry speaks up again “we’ll talk about this tomorrow” Harry sighs ending the call.

He turns to look at you standing there staring at him he comes back to you holding your waist “I’m sorry sweetheart” he whispers pulling you into him. You automatically wrap your arms around him “don’t apologise baby, if anything I should apologise I’m the reason you and Jeff are arguing H, I’m so sorry”. He pulls you into a tight hug “you’re too good to me, you know that?” He asks, you peck his cheek softly “H, we’ve been looking out for each other since we were 16, that’s never going to change, ok?” You say softly playing with the cross necklace resting on his chest.

Harry couldn’t help but adore you, “how about we head back to the hotel?” He asks. You nod “that sounds great babe”. Harry orders you a ride and you finally get to try the gelato while you wait. The ride back to the hotel was quiet, you could tell Harry was deep in thought but you decided against saying anything. You both get ready for bed. Snuggling into Harry’s side you glance up at him, the crease in his forehead still present. “Harold” you say softly rolling over to rest your arms across his chest, “what’s on your mind babe, you haven’t said anything since we got in the car” you say softly as his hand caresses your back softly. Harry let’s out a sigh directing his eyes to yours.

“Can I ask you something?” He asks, you nod instantly “of course” you sit up a little to get a better view of his face “but just, hear me out, don’t freak out” he says his hand moving to a halt on your back. You nod agreeing with him. “Tonight got me thinking…about us…and how much I love Italy with you in it and how much I love my life with you in it.” You’d never seen Harry more nervous to ask how you felt you could have melt at how nervous he was. “M’just wondering I guess, where do you see us….going? You mean a lot to me y/n, you always have and I think you and I, it’s something I want to hold onto…for good.”

Seeing Harry so vulnerable in the moment was doing things to you , and you weren’t sure what sort of feelings these were but you knew how you felt about Harry, without a doubt. “Harry…” you move up his chest to peck his lips softly “I love my life so much more with you in it too and you mean the absolute world to me, I want us for good, I want to travel the world with you and experience everything life has to offer, with you. Who knows, maybe we’ll even make our own little band one day” you smile softly. Harry’s nervous look turns into the biggest smile you’d ever seen on his face he wraps his arms around your waist planting his lips to your in a passionate kiss you rest your hands on Harry’s cheeks to be closer to him. He pulls away slowly looking into your eyes stroking your cheek.

“Can I tell you something?” He asks eyes tracing your face. You nod placing one hand back on Harry’s chest the other playing with the stubble in his chin. Harry bites his bottom lip softly “I love you y/n” Harry says softly his arms moving to cup your cheeks “I want to yell it from the roof, scream it to all my fans, you have no idea how happy you make me sweetheart” Harry’s rests his forehead against yours. You begin to tear up at Harry’s statement “H…I love you too” you whisper softly stroking his cheek with your thumb. Harry’s wide smile returns to his lips and he pulls you closer until his lips meet yours in a kiss that set the tone for a night with very little sleep.

On top of the world.

Four weeks

It had been four weeks, since you last saw Harry, since he last got to hold you, make love to you. In the three months that had passed since you’d surprised Harry in Italy you’d made another trip to see him for a few days for his last few MSG shows. You couldn’t have been prouder of him. You felt you’d been watching his journey from afar up to this past few months. Watching Harry as his banner was lifted at his final New York show, you cried in admiration of him, you cried with him after the show then made love to him until you were both spent. Little did you know, New York would change both your lives, forever.

Today, today was the day you would finally get to sleep next to Harry again, in his own bed. He was coming home.

This whole experience was still new to you, you weren’t sure what to do in the time leading up to Harry’s arrival you were nervous and considering you had quit your job and started freelancing after MSG you had given yourself the day off to prepare. Which ironically, made you even more nervous.

Clammy hands

Regardless of what you did today they remained clammy. Harry’s home was clean, top to bottom courtesy of yourself the night before. Normally you wouldn’t be this nervous to see Harry, but this time round you had a secret, a secret that could be good but could also be bad. You truely weren’t sure how Harry would react to it.

You distract yourself putting together a small fruit platter for Harry when you hear a key in the door before Harry’s sweet voice echos off the walls slightly “Honey I’m home!” He calls out in a sing song causing you to giggle. Harry had always made fun of that line, if it came on in a show or movie he had to comment on how it was overrated. You move from the kitchen counter towards the front door racing up to Harry as he dropped his bags opening his arms for you to race into. You wrap your arms around him as he lifts your from the ground “I missed you so much” you pout into Harry’s shoulder “not as much as I missed you” Harry sighs his body relaxing into the huge hug you’d given him. He slowly pulls away slightly cupping your cheeks in his hands leaning down kissing you like it had been a year since he last saw you. You kiss back holding onto his wrists with your own hands.

Eventually he slowly pulls away just staring into your eyes “god I love you” he whispers causing you to blush and melt into his hold more, if it was even possible. “I love you too H, I’m so glad your home” you smile up at him pulling him in for another kiss. After another few minutes Harry slowly pulls away looking down at you a little worry in his eyes “what’s wrong pet?” He asks taking more of you in “y’been sick?” He asks “are you working to hard?” He ask kissing your nose. You giggle and shake your head before pausing to speak up “We need to talk H” you say softly. Harry face still laced with concerns follows you to the living room sitting down on the couch.

“Pet, what’s going on?” Harry asks “is everything ok?” He asks moving closer to take your hands. You sigh a little “that depends….” You pause for a moment thinking of how to say what you needed to. Fuck it, just spit it out. “Harry, how do you feel about becoming a Dad?” You ask looking into Harry eyes. You felt like you were seeing every single emotion in the book cover Harry’s face making you wonder if this was a good idea.

“What d’you mean?” He asks his face morphing into one of concern. You bite your lip softly “I’m pregnant H” you smile a little trying to hold your emotions in just in case Harry had a negative reaction “you’re serious? No joking?” He asks causing you to just nod. Next thing you knew you had been hoisted up in Harry’s arms with his lips on yours kissing you passionately. Once he pulls away he lays you on the couch “why didn’t you tell me?” He asks hovering over you looking your body up and down as if you were already six months along. “I wanted to tell you in person, it was too big of a thing to tell you over FaceTime. We’re four weeks as of yesterday” you say softly searching Harry’s face.

“I love you so fucking much” he smiles tears stinging his eyes as he pulls you in to a tight embrace placing kisses to any part of your he could reach “I love you too Harry, so so much, I’m so glad you’re home” you whisper your voice breaking. You hear Harry sniffle his hands pulling you in even closer “sweetheart you’re my home, our family is my home” he whispers slowly pulling away to look at you resting his forehead to yours. You hold each other for a while letting the tears run free. You’d never felt so loved before. Harry eventually lays you back placing little kisses to your collarbones and down your chest to your tummy.

He lifts your top a little placing soft, tiny kisses where your little bean would be residing for the next eight months. “Hi precious…” he whispers softly “I hope you’ve been nice to Mummy while Daddy has been away, I just wanted to say I already love you so so much , I promise I’ll never let our little family down” he whispers to your tummy as your hands find his hair pushing it away from his face “Daddy might need some help when you get here…to pick a ring for Mummy….but that’s our little secret” he whispers even quieter but still audible to you causing you to smile tears slipping from your eyes.

Harry places more kisses to your tummy before connecting his lips to yours once more “thank you for being my everything” he sighs happily resting his forehead to yours “I love you both so much” he says before kissing you once more.

Closure.

CHASE IX

Read the previous part here

Anger, was coursing through your veins.

You wanted to keep your cool. But the look on Jeff’s face coupled with the confusion on Harry’s was tipping you over the edge.

You glance towards Harry before turning to Jeff. “Would you like to explain, or shall I?” You ask Jeff who was a little taken aback at your question. “Y/n… what’s going on?” Harry gulps glaring at Jeff, Harry moves to sit down next to you. “I’m sorry Harry, I should have told you…While we were in New York, Jeff decided that you were unavailable for a relationship, but as far as I’m concerned, your an adult, you should be allowed to make your own choices, but maybe I’m wrong seeing as apparently your a different guy on tour, I didn’t want to say anything earlier just in case it upset you but now everything’s out” you sigh looking up at Harry

Harry sighs pulling you into his chest “it’s ok pet, you were just looking out for me, for us…” he pauses for a moment glaring at Jeff “why would you do that? This is my relationship just because it’s not some high profile celebrity I can’t be happy?” Jeff fumbles with his words before Harry interjects “I don’t even want to hear it, my personal life is mine, you work for me end of story” Jeff storms out slamming the door on the way out causing you to jump.

“Thank you for being honest with me love, but please don’t feel like you have to hide things from me, it’s you and me, just you and me, c’mere” he whispers pulling you closer you wrap your arms around his shoulders snuggling into his neck taking in his fresh scent, you place a few pecks to his neck before pulling away connecting your lips to his. “Thank you for being so understanding Harry, I couldn’t ask for anyone better” you whisper he looks at you smiling “we make each other better y/n” he smiles softly pecking your lips.

****

Harry got dressed and took you back out to the arena floor, “Lloyd?!” He calls out looking around for his photographer Lloyd’s head pops up from behind Sarah’s freshly constructed drum kit, “yeah mate?” He asks “there’s someone I want you to meet” Harry calls out. Lloyd makes his way over to the pair “Lloyd, this is Y/n, Y/n this is Lloyd one of the photographers on tour with us” Lloyd smiles holding his hand out for you to shake “nice to meet you, I’ve seen plenty of your work for this pest, it’s amazing” you smile shaking his hand then putting on a cheeky grin for Harry as he smirks in your direction.

“This Lloyd, is my lovely girlfriend, she’ll be spending some time with us here in Italy” Harry smile wrapping his arms around your waist your hands coming to rest on top of his, Lloyd smiles “you guys are too cute, I’m sure the camera will find you both at some point” he says before wandering off back to the stage you and Harry stand and chat for a few minutes before you turn in his arms looking up at him “Harry I’m sorry if I’ve put you in a spot with Jeff…it wasn’t my intention to be malicious” you say softly your hands resting on Harry’s chest. He shakes his head “no sweetheart, don’t do that, why don’t we get out of here and talk about it?” He asks you nod standing on your tip toes to peck his lips softly, Harry smiles on your lips resting his forehead to yours “I missed you so much H” you whisper softly, when you both here some clicks coming from close by you both turn your heads at the same time finding Lloyd snapping pictures of you both causing you to laugh. Harry quickly spins you in his arms holding your waist from behind “the camera loves you pet” he whispers as Lloyd keeps clicking away. “You’re too cheeky for your own good sometimes” you smirk up at him “c’mon you, let’s get out of here” he smiles pulling you backstage towards his dressing room

****

Falling onto Harry’s hotel bed together felt amazing, you couldn’t help but watch out of the balcony doors as Italy went about its day. You glance up at Harry from the place you had nestled into on his chest he glances down at you smiling kissing your head and pulling you closer “this is perfect” you whisper Harry hums agreeing with you his left hand grazing up and down your back in slow movements. You sit up a little “tell me my love, what else have you been doing since tour started, you had a lot of other projects in the works before you left, how’s that all going?” You ask.

“Well…” Harry starts sitting up “it’s been a lot of missing you, singing to lots of people little bit of happy crying, little bit of sad crying when I missed you too much, catching up with Mum and Gemma, even got to see Niall. Don’t Worry Darling is ready for release…” Harry sighs “I guess things have been a little rocky with Jeff because of that….sweetheart I need to tell you something.” You look up at Harry “what is it babe?” You ask giving him your undivided attention. “Things have been rocky with Jeff because of Don’t Worry Darling, I’m sure you would have seen before we reconnected there were photos of me and Olivia blowing up” you look up at Harry and nod “I saw them” you say softly letting him carry on “that was PR to promote the filming of the movie and Olivia’s career but now that filming is done and the movie is ready and there’s premiers and the Venice film festival they want more of that PR relationship to push the movie….but I said no because I don’t want you to have to go through that” he whispers.

You move to wrap your arms around Harry pulling him into a tight embrace “Harry…babe you should have told me” he sighs into your neck “I’m sorry, I didn’t want to stress you out” you shake your head “look at me H” you say softly lifting his chin. He looks back at you with red eyes “I’m going to support you no matter what H, if you feel like you need to do this then that’s ok, if you don’t want to then that’s ok too, but I’ll still be here either way, ok?” You ask softly holding his cheeks. Harry holds your waist pulling you into his lap “I’m so so lucky to have you” he whispers tears brimming his eyes “I don’t want to do it, I’m going to stand my ground I can’t in good conscious do that to you baby”.

You wipe under Harry’s eyes kissing his head softly “you’re so amazing Harry” you peck his lips softly “I’ll be there with you every step of the way” you rest your forehead to his. “Thank you…thank you, thank you” Harry smiles rolling onto you hugging you tightly causing you to giggle running your hands through his hair “so, what do we do Curly?” You ask he looks up at you with raised brows and a cheeky grin “I may already be one step ahead of you, Lloyd is a very skilled man” Harry starts, reaching for his phone “photos from this morning ready to be posted, if your comfortable we can announce our relationship and quash all the PR crap at the same time” he asks looking up at you showing you the photos “you’re too sneaky Styles, but let’s do it” you smile down at him. You pick a few of the photos that Lloyd took that morning and came up with a caption together

harrystyles: ‘TRUE, Love On Tour. Italy. July, 2022.’

You grab your phone straight away liking the post and commenting,

y/n username: couldn’t be happier here with you <3

Harry smiles reading your comment. You lean over throwing yourself into Harry’s arms “I mean it H, I couldn’t be happier here with you” you smile cupping his cheeks kissing him softly.

****

You spent most of the afternoon snuggling with Harry not wanting to move from his arms, your certain at some point Harry even falls asleep for half an hour or so. When he eventually wakes, he squeezes your waist softly “Hey” he whispers softly moving to kiss your temple, you hum looking up at him “Would you like to go on a date in one of the most beautiful cities in the world tonight?” you look up at Harry smiling “I would love nothing more Curly” he smiles back at you moving so that he was leaning over you, Harry quickly glances up at the time “it’s still early, we have some spare time” he smirks connecting his lips to yours, you automatically wrap your arms around him. Harry hums against your lips before pulling away “I’ve missed kissing you” he whispers, “actually, I’ve missed a lot of you” you blush trying to hide your face from Harry, he lifts your chin pecking your lips “I missed you too, all of you H” you smile pulling him back down connecting your lips once more.

Your hands move down Harry’s back pulling at the hem of his shirt until he helps you to pull it over his head, you squeeze Harry’s toned shoulders “you’ve been working hard” you giggle smiling on Harry’s lips, he slowly pulls away kissing down your neck as he speaks “turns out, you get pretty sexually frustrated when your gorgeous girl is a minimum of 12 hours away, I get all that out in the gym…and in the shower” Harry glances up at you and winks. You can’t help but giggle under him as his hands find their way up your shirt, pulling it up and over your head tossing it to the side. “I really missed these” he mumbles kissing and sucking at the skin of your breasts that wasn’t covered by your bra. Harry reaches behind you unhooking your bra, you moan out as Harry instantly takes your left breast in his mouth, he smirks humming on you before moving to the right one, paying close attention to your nipples.

Harry moves to undo your jeans pushing them down your legs leaving you in your underwear. He kisses down your body to your hips, kissing them both, before kissing across to the centre of your pelvis “H…” you pant squirming under his hold to get him to touch you. He chuckles against your skin, “what’s wrong pet? Don’t like a tease?” he asks, you hook your legs around his torso and roll you both so you were straddling his chest “No, no I don’t, not after almost two months anyway” you smile placing your lips to his before kissing and licking down his body until you get to the band of his shorts “This is a lot of clothes to what I’d prefer Styles” you smirk kneeling in front of him tugging his shorts off his legs before doing the same to his boxers, letting his rock hard cock spring free hitting his stomach.

You bite your lip looking up at him and his member like it could be your last meal. You sway your hips a little coming up closer to Harry’s pelvis, your hand moving its way up his thigh to his member, giving him two slow, lazy pumps before nestling it back to his base. Your mouth hovers over the tip of Harry’s cock as he places an arm behind his head to be able to watch you “still my favourite view” he comments smirking at you. Glaring at him you take his tip in your mouth instantly silencing him as he takes in a sharp breath. You glance up with pleading eyes seeing the crease in Harry’s forehead and his mouth hanging open was just turning you on more. You slowly take his length in you mouth until you can feel him at the back of your throat. “Fuck babe, you’re too good” Harry moans using his free hand to hold your hair out of your way. You come back up swirling your tongue around his tip, a string of saliva coming from your mouth connecting to Harry’s tip. You go back to working on Harry’s tip, before taking his length in again until he hits the back of your throat once more. This tipped Harry over the edge he moans out grasping your hand “c’mere sweetheart” he groans pulling you up onto his chest “so, so good” he mumbles before connecting his lips to yours one hand reaching down into your panties to feel the wetness that had gathered between your thighs “All mine” he smirks on your lips as you gasp, his cold fingers coming into contact with your warm core.

“Please don’t tease me Harry…I just want you” you whisper. Harry rolls you both so that you’re on your back, landing in between the sea of pillows adorning the top of the bed causing you to break out in giggles “I’m being eaten by pillows here” you laugh trying to push the pillows of yourself “Sorry pet” Harry chuckles throwing a few to the side so he could see you. He leans down kissing you softly “these are in the way” he groans on your lips pulling at the band of your panties, smirking on his lips you pull them off throwing them to the side moving so that your legs were either side of Harry’s hips “this better?” you mumble pulling his hips to you until his hard on is grazing against your centre. “So much better” Harry responds pushing the tip of his cock through your wetness causing you both to moan softly staring at one another just wanting to stay right here. “You ok pet?” Harry asks, you reach up cupping his cheeks kissing him softly “I’m amazing H” you say after pulling away. Harry smiles down at you kissing your forehead, then your nose, then both cheeks then your jaw before coming back to your lips. You make out for a few minutes before he slowly pulls away resting his forehead against your, slowly pushing into you, holding you as close as possible. Once he had bottomed out, he gave you both a moment to adjust given the time frame. “My god you’re perfect” he whispers on your lips pressing a few slow kisses to your lips. After a minute or so you look up at Harry “I’m ok H… you can move” you say looking up at him pecking his lips Harry slowly pulls almost all the way out before pushing back into you bottoming out once again, he turns this into a steady rhythm.

This rhythm soon turns into you riding Harry, his hands find their way to your hips and Harry meets your downbeat with a thrust ensuring he hit your g-spot each time. The room was filled with moans, explicit sentences and skin on skin contact, it was by far one of the most intimate moments you and Harry had ever had and it was just causing the knot in your stomach to build quicker. It seemed Harry was in the same boat as you, his face screwed up sweat dripping from his forehead “close baby?” you ask hands planted on Harry’s chest enabling you to slam down onto Harry’s cock harder. He simply nods “you?” he responds you nod back biting you lip tipping your head back. “Harry” you pant, he looks up at you one hand going to your hair pulling you into him connecting your lips “I know baby, I know” He mumbles, you continue rocking your hips into Harry’s “Fuck, I’m so close y/n please don’t stop” you both keep moving with each other before one of Harry’s hands come to hold your hip the other rubbing your clit just the way you needed within minutes you were both coming undone, both of you shaking and moaning in each other’s arms, Harry holding you close kissing you passionately as he filled you with his cum.

Harry pulls you down to him pulling the sheet over you “H…” you whisper “you’re incredible, I’m so glad I came out here” he leans over not saying a word kissing you trying to convey everything he was feeling. You kiss back staying as close to Harry as possible your breasts pressed up against his chest.

After a short nap you feel the bed dip, you opening your eyes slowly you see Harry’s behind heading towards the bathroom “peachy!” you call out after him causing him to laugh smirking at you over his shoulder “shower babe?” He asks, you nod getting up yourself. After showering with Harry’s help and a little bit of distraction you were finally getting dressed to go out to dinner. You pull on a red sundress that came down to your knees with ties at the waist to accentuate your shape, doing light natural makeup and letting your hair fall in its natural waves you walk out of the bathroom to find Harry putting fresh sheets on the bed “ohhh, he really does know his way around the bedroom” you smile putting some little gold earrings in. Harry turns to poke some fun back at you and stops in his tracks “wow” he says almost completely speechless walking towards you taking your hand “baby….look at you, you’re absolutely stunning” Harry just stares at you for a while before leaning in to kiss you softly.

Kissing back you couldn’t help but smile on his lips. Harry pulls you toward to full length mirror in the corner of the room he pulls his phone out and takes a few photos of you both one hand on your waist as yours rest on Harry’s. He lets you go to put shoes on and sends one of the photos to his Mum and Gemma with the message,

Harry: I got the best surprise today, y/n is here, safe and sound. I’m going to marry this girl one day.

“Harry…you ready?” You ask looking over at him as you grab your purse. He looks up from his phone still smiling about the message he sent “yeah love, coming” he smiles walking towards you taking your hand in his. On the way out of the hotel Gemma replies, soon followed by Anne.

Gem: Sooner rather than later please or I’ll marry her for you.

Anne: oh hush Gem! That’s wonderful news Harry, your Instagram post today was lovely dear.

Harry chuckles reading the message causing you to look up at him “what’s up bubbly?” You asks swinging your hands a little “just Gemma being Gemma” Harry chimes causing you to giggle he pulls your hand up to his lips kissing your knuckles. The pair make it to the lobby, Harry comes to a halt before walking out into the street, he looks at you “ready babe?” He asks giving your hand a squeeze.

Part X coming soon…

CHASE VIII

Read the previous part here

Wiping tears from your eyes, you look at your own reflection in your now blank laptop screen. 

Harry had been away on tour for a month now…the longest month of your life to date. It had been hard on you both, but neither of you wanted to admit that to one another. You would try to FaceTime at least once every few days and text in between, but it just wasn’t the same.

Work had been keeping you incredibly busy leading to several nights like tonight, left in tears missing Harry more than anything, just wanting to talk to him face to face and have him hold you. Staying at Harry’s a few nights here and there was just making you miss him more, but you couldn’t bring yourself to go back to your apartment where the presence of Harry in the décor and furniture was entirely absent.  

****

It was quite late on a Wednesday night, not usually a night you FaceTime with the curly haired handsome man because he usually has a show, leading to you spending some extra time at the office to work on a presentation for the following morning. You were just about ready to get up and have a little stretch around your office when your phone chimed next to you with an unexpected text from Harry.

harold :) : ‘Hi gorgeous, awake still? Xx’

You let out a sigh of relief knowing that meant he was either going to call or FaceTime, you quickly type out your reply and push send.

Y/n: ‘Hi baby, yeah I’m still awake, everything ok? Xox’

Within seconds you phone and laptop were lighting up with the incoming FaceTime call you quickly answer to see a mildly damp Harry on the other side of the call, his smile instantly widens seeing your face then fades a little seeing you were still at work “sweetheart, isn’t it almost ten PM, what are you still doing there?” he asks the displeasure present in his voice. You shrug a little “I’ve just been finishing off a presentation for tomorrow, I’m almost done I promise” you grin a little trying to convince Harry that you were almost done, when in reality you both knew that wasn’t the case. “Anyway, how are you? How’s Munich?” you ask Harry couldn’t help but hide his grin “It’s incredible, the show sold out, the band has been amazing, I couldn’t ask for anything to go any smoother… well having you here would make things perfect, but I understand how important your work is” Harry flashes you a quick smile. You blush a little at his words, it was one thing that you found incredible about Harry, he was so accommodating and understanding of you wanting to focus on your career, especially being so early in your relationship you wanted to keep some boundaries, just in case.

“You don’t usually call on nights that you have a show, is everything ok? Did you run out of socks already?” You joke causing Harry to laugh “No, no, plenty of socks still. I just missed you, just needed to see your face, things have been so busy I just wanted to slow down for a moment” you couldn’t help but pout, your legs turning to jelly at Harry’s words, “H, that’s so sweet, you can call me anytime, day or night you know that, I miss you so much Harry” you sigh. You catch up and chat for around half an hour before you hear Jeff in the background telling Harry to hurry up and get organised. You sigh softly knowing full well this is where your call would end.

Harry looks at you with pleading eyes “I’m sorry pet, gotta go” he whispers, you nod “it’s ok H, I’m so glad you called” you smile he starts blowing kisses at the camera causing you to giggle “oh! Wait before I go! The Italy shows are coming up in a few weeks, I thought you might like to come…if you can get the time off work” you feel your cheeks heat up, trying to hide your face you push some loose strands of hair behind your ear “I’d love to Harry I’ll chat to my boss about it tomorrow” you smile “I’ll let you get going babe, don’t want to keep Jeff waiting… I’m proud of you Curly, be safe babe” you say softly bowling kisses to Harry “Thank you sweetheart, talk soon?” Harry asks, you instantly nod “of course H” Harry smiles and begins waving. You say your goodbyes and eventually hang up.

You were holding out on a little secret from Harry. You’d bought a ticket for the first Italy show and had already organised time off before you and Harry had even reconnected you decided to kill two birds with one stone and do some travelling and see your favourite person perform but, now that you and Harry were together you wanted to keep it as your own little secret to surprise Harry.

****

Before you knew it, you were packing a bag and getting on a plane to head to Italy to see Harry. Since Harry had asked you to come to Italy you had to try and avoid the topic and play it off where you could. You felt terrible eventually just having to lie and say you couldn’t get the time off. You felt as though you were manipulating Harry by not telling him but you were excited to see him.

You arrived in Italy on a warm Friday night and caught an Uber to your hotel. You made it up to your room just in time before Harry began calling. You put your bags down and answer quickly “Hi Curly” you couldn’t help but smile knowing that you’d be saying that in person by tomorrow. “Hi sweetheart, how are you?” He asks softly he sounded absolutely exhausted “I’m good H, you alright? You don’t sound like yourself babe” he chuckles softly “I’m ok pet, just tired….I miss you” he whispers softly you couldn’t help but feel terrible about your surprise plan hearing how unsteady Harry sounded. “I miss you too H, so much I promise I’ll try get some time off to come out and see you soon” you hear him smile chuckling softly “I’d love that” he sighs “I’m sorry y/n I have to go we’re about to fly out” you shake your head your brow ceasing “don’t apologise H, I get it, fly safe please and get some rest ok? Text me when you land?” You could hear him shuffling onto the plane “I will love, I’ll talk to you soon I promise, bye pet” you smile softly “talk soon babe” Harry ends the call and you let out a sigh. He sounded so disappointed, you felt terrible that you told Harry you weren’t coming.

You got settled for the night and Harry text to let you know he’s arrived safely in Italy and was heading to bed. You desperately wanted to go and surprise him now but knew he needed a good nights rest first. When you hatched your plan to surprise Harry you’d contacted Sarah to let her know about it all and she offered to help you get into the venue during bump in to surprise Harry then.

Waking the next morning, it took you a moment to realise where you were,slipping out of bed and walking over to the balcony doors swinging them open looking out across the little Italian streets. You smile to yourself knowing in a matter of hours you’d get to experience this with Harry. You get ready in record time and message Sarah letting her know your on your way. You check out of the hotel and get an Uber the arena. Sarah meet you outside the arena greeting you with a huge hug “thank you so much for your help Sez, I hope he doesn’t get mad” you giggle coming out of the embrace “he’s hardly stopped talking about you since the tour started, I think if it was up to him you’d be in his carry on” she laughs taking one of your bags “here let me get these taken to Harry’s hotel room” she leads you into the back taking you through who’s dressing room was who’s. You leave your work backpack in Harry’s dressing room before Sarah takes you out into the arena floor “I’ll leave you with him, good luck” she smiles giving you a brief hug, you thank her profusely before she walks off to find Mitch.

You see Harry across the arena floor talking with someone about the set list, you keep your distance enough to not be seen by Harry. He’s looked…cute and comfortable in a big t-shirt and shorts, a pair of crew socks and vans on his feet a little clip holding back the curls that fall in his face, phone in his left hand. You quickly pluck your phone out taking a quick photo, you glance at it and can’t helps but smile, you end up sending it to Harry with a text attached.

Y/n: ‘Italy suits you xxx’

You watch as Harry glances at his phone and sees your message smiling as he reads it, his smile drops as he looks at it further looking at the photo. His forehead creases as he turns to look behind him. His face morphs with shock when he sees you. He quickly turns his whole body walking towards you which soon turned into a jog which soon turned into a sprint. You couldn’t help but giggle heading towards Harry he slows a little once he’s a foot in front of you reaching out picking you up causing you to wrap your legs around him. Harry smashes his lips to yours in a passionate kiss his lips had never felt better against yours.

One of your hands moves to Harry’s hair the other resting on his cheek. Harry’s strong arms were holding you as close as he could get you, his tongue grazes your bottom lip before he pulls away abruptly “wait wait wait…what are you doing here?” He asks look as confused as ever causing you to giggle pecking his lips “don’t get mad…I bought tickets for the show as soon as they were released before we were together, when you asked me to come to these shows I figured I’d just surprise you instead since I was already going to be here….I’m sorry I didn’t tell you H”. Harry put you down cupping your cheeks “how could I ever be mad? You….you are so cheeky Miss Y/L/N, this is the best surprise ever sweetheart, I missed you so much” his pleading eyes look into yours before connecting your lips once again “does this mean I get to keep you for a few days?” Harry mumbles on your lips “you get to keep me the entire time you’re here in Italy” you respond pecking Harry’s lips several times before slowly pulling away. You look up into Harry’s eyes tears starting to pool in his lower waterline, “no baby…” you whisper, “don’t cry H, what’s wrong?” you ask cupping his cheeks as a few tears spill from his eyes, “I-I just, every time I called and told you I missed you, I missed you one hundred times more, I just wish I could take you around the world with me” Harry sighs, sniffling his sentiment causing tears to brew in your own eyes “You’re too good to me H” you sniffle shaking your head a little , resting your forehead to Harry’s. 

Just as Harry was about to lean in and kiss you once again you hear Jeff calling out from the stage “Styles! C’mon you’ve got a setlist to finalise” Harry sighs blowing some of your hair to the side at the same time “Sorry sweetheart, I’d love your opinion if you’d like to help?” he asks kissing your forehead you smile nodding “I’d love to H”. Harry places you back down on your own two feet and takes your hand leading you back to his previous position, he wraps his arms around your waist resting his chin on your shoulder, kissing your cheek softly “What do you think pet? Is it a good set?” Harry asks as your place your hands over his “I think it’s great Curly, will medicine make an appearance?” You ask to teasing Harry. He chuckles in your ear “Maybe, maybe not” you feel him smirk against the side of your head before pecking your temple.

****

A few hours in you and Harry head back to his dressing room to spend some time together while he had some spare time. Harry heads off to shower quickly while you wait on the couch in his dressing room. While your waiting Jeff lets himself in clearly looking for Harry, when he finds you instead he looks you up and down a crease etched in between his brows. “Oh hello Y/n, I wasn’t aware you were coming to visit” He says putting some paperwork out for Harry “umm, surprise visit, I didn’t tell anyone until a few days ago” Jeff shrugs “Maybe next time contact me so we can work out dates that suit everyone. He’s different on tour, I told you that, I also told you he’s not ready for a relationship and you didn’t listen so what would I know” just as you were about to respond Harry walks in with a towel adorning his waist, tattooed torso and arms on full display. “Who’s not ready for a relationship?” he asks looking at Jeff before glancing at you.

It was taking all your might not to give Jeff and piece of your mind right now. But the concerning look on Harry’s face was what was keeping you grounded “Y/n what’s going on?” He asks glancing between you and Jeff. You sign softly, this was going to be fun to explain.

Part IX coming soon…

CHASE VII

Four AM.

Four AM was when you and Harry had finally given enough to each other for the night and just wanted to hold each other. The dinner, the sweet sentiment the intimate moments would be etched in your mind forever. At around nine the next morning your slumbers were disturbed by the familiar ringtone emitting from Harry’s phone, you groan a little turning in his hold shoving him a little with your elbow “fruit man your phones ringing” you grumble trying to drown out the sound by snuggling down into the covers more. You hear Harry breathe out heavily “I’ll give you fruit man” you could hear the smirk on his lips with his response as he squeezes your hip rolling over. He answers the phone and you could hear Jeff voice in the silence of Harry’s bedroom.

“Where the hell are you?!” Jeff booms “you had a fitting at nine and it’s now nine twenty seven, Harry” Harry sits up a little panicked look at you holding his free hand up as if he wasn’t sure what to do. He quickly coughs and clears his throat “ugh, I’m sorry Jeff I’m not feeling well, I think everything’s catching up to me before tour, can they squeeze me in tomorrow? I think I just need a day to rest to fight off whatever this is” Harry mumbles into his phone you couldn’t help but hold in a giggle knowing full well he’d just slept in because you couldn’t keep your hands off each other.

“Fine” Jeff huffs, “make sure your feeling better tomorrow please we can’t afford for you to be sick” as Harry’s about to respond Jeff ends the call. Harry dumps his phone down coming back to wrap his arms around you “I’m sorry that woke you sweetheart” he nudges the back of your neck with his nose kissing between your shoulders and neck. “Have you ever called in sick?” You ask giggling a little, you feel Harry smirk against your skin “I recall calling in sick once at the bakery because someone convinced me to go to a party and got us both absolutely trashed” he hums against you, you erupt in a fit of giggles “that was me, I went to work the next day and you ditched me, I don’t know how many times I threw up, Margaret never let me live it down” you smile snuggling into Harry’s chest.

“You didn’t have to reschedule your fitting for me H” you whisper softly he groans and you knew the crease in his forehead was present without even needing to face him “I want to spend time with you pet, it’s your weekend I promise I’ll start working my schedule around you” you turn in his arms to face him placing your hands on his cheeks “Curly…” you pause for a moment looking up into his eyes “I don’t want you to change things just for me, I want to be there with you, full support one hundred percent of the time” you whisper kissing his nose before pecking his lips.

Harry holds you close resting his forehead to your own, he begins to place small kisses over your face. “I’m so glad…” Harry starts as he moves down your cheeks to your neck “that you came back into my life, you make everything better y/n” he whispers placing a final kiss to your lips. You giggle softly sighing dramatically “well, I try” you smirk, Harry glares at you trying to hold in his own laugh, he moves so he’s hovering over you “is that how it’s going to be?” He asks tracing a hand up your thigh he moves some more pinning you down into his bed tickling your sides you squirm under him in fits of giggles “H…Harry, stop!” You laugh trying to squirm from his arms “Harry! Stop it I’m going to wet myself!” You shriek causing a belly laugh to erupt from him, he slowly stops pecking your nose as he pulls away “coffee?” He asks “you read my mind Curly”.

You both get out of bed Harry heading to the kitchen to start some coffee for you both, you head to the bathroom doing your morning routine before heading to the kitchen to Harry cooking breakfast. A cup of coffee waiting for you on the counter Harry glances over at you while he’s flipping pancakes a smirk crawling onto his lips “what?” You ask smiling “have I got something on my face?” Harry just smirks his emerald green eyes burning into your own “not at all pet, I just…could get used to seeing you in my clothes that’s all” you feel your cheeks heat up at Harry’s compliment. Having everything feel so domestic was reassuring to you and settled some anxieties for you as well. But deep down you knew these blissful moments may not last once tour starts it’d be FaceTime calls and time zone changes rather than sleep in and breakfast together.

****

Sunday morning was much the same to Saturday with the addition of Harry in your bed this time rather than his. It also meant you got to tag along to his fitting this morning you dressed nicely but not to nice to come off as pretentious but not so casual that it would look sloppy. Harry on the other hand suggested turning up in his boxers considering he’d be in and out of different combinations most of the morning, after some convincing he simply opted for the same washed out ripped jeans from your first dinner together in his LA home, with a white t-shirt and cardigan over. You couldn’t help but stare taking in his outfit now completed with a pair of dishevelled vans “how is it that you make everything look so effortless yet so perfect?” You ask, Harry pouts in your direction “you think I’m perfect?” Harry asks his cheeks turning a warm shade of pink you nod as Harry holds his hand out to you so you could both head out. “Well thank you sweet pea, but I wouldn’t be perfect if it wasn’t for you…mum was asking about you the other day” he smiles interlocking your fingers with his own as you walk down to Harry’s car. “Oh, I miss her” you whine a little “she misses you too, so does Gemma, they’re both over the moon about us” Harry’s comment causes you to hum “I’m over the moon about it to” you smile pecking his lips as he holds open the car door for you.

Harry drives you both to his fitting stopping on the way for coffee. On arrival you sneak in behind Harry hand in hand shying away a little due to all the people and the slightly intimidating nature of the situation, feeling as though you didn’t belong. A moment later, as if he lived in the woodwork Jeff appeared out of no where “About time you were on time for something Harry, hello Y/N, nice to see you again” he grumbles at you both. He quickly whisks Harry away leaving you sitting on a remarkably uncomfortable sofa watching the world go by.

You were still so unsure as to why Jeff had always given you such a cold shoulder from day dot, it was confusing to you because he was claiming to be looking out for Harry, but you’d known Harry for longer than anyone in the room. Did he think you were just trying to get closer to Harry for his money because that was in no way your style. Much like Harry, you were raised to work incredibly hard to get to where you wanted to be and taking hand outs was not part of that upbringing. After what felt like a few hours but in reality was about forty minutes Jeff comes and sits at the opposite end of the couch seemingly waiting for Harry as you were.

The tension in the silence could cut through just about anything, you were about to excuse yourself to get a drink when Jeff spoke up. “You didn’t listen to me in New York” he grumbles “Harry just told me that you two are official, after I told you he wasn’t ready for that, why?” He asks it takes a beat for you to realise Jeff was actually talking to you. You glance at him tilting your head a little “Harry’s a grown man, he can make decisions himself” you pause for a moment picking at your cuticles “can I ask you something Jeff?” He nods glancing at you “why do I feel like you have an issue with me, you’ve known me what a month, what did I do?” He thinks for a few moments before speaking up “I’ve been working with Harry for a while now, which means I’ve also seen my fair share of women come into his life, shake things up and then leave and every time he gets crushed. Admittedly sometimes it creates his best work but he takes a minute to bounce back, Harry’s like a little brother I’m just very protective, it’s nothing against you per say” you were a little gobsmacked at Jeff’s admission and that he hadn’t done his homework a little better.

“You realise I’ve known Harry for…ballpark… about 13 years, we went to the same school, but hit it off when we started working at that now very famous bakery…I have nothing but admiration for that man and I have zero intention of just upping and leaving him, he’s too good to be treated like that” you explain looking down at your hands. Jeff let’s out a soft sigh “just don’t get used to him being like this all the time. It’s different when he’s on the road” you sigh shaking your head a little just when you thought you’d made a little bit of progress with Jeff he says that.

****

Harry’s fitting goes smoothly he even models a few outfits for you. On the way home Harry noticed you were a little quieter than expected “you ok pet?” He asks reaching over for your hand. You nod softly “yeah H, I’m ok” you flash him a brief smile before going back to looking out the window. Harry leaves off it as you reach out taking his hand interlocking your fingers with his as he drives, he brings the back of your hand to his lips pecking it softly. A few blocks from your apartment you speak up “I’m going to miss you” you whisper glancing at Harry “while your on tour” Harry sighs softly “I’m going to miss you too, so much sweetheart, part of me just wants to stay here with you” you pout at Harry giggling a little “imagine the uproar that would cause, I just wish I could be there to see more of the tour, if the ONO shows were anything to go by you’re going to be incredible Harry” Harry just gives you a warm smile kissing your hand for the second time.

Harry leads you up to your apartment and cooks you dinner sitting down at your small dining table, it dawned on you, “H…when you do have to leave, for tour?” You ask he couldn’t help but chuckle softly “Your always one step ahead of me...I have to fly out Thursday morning, but I was wondering how you would feel about staying with me until then?” you couldn’t help but cup Harry’s cheeks kissing him passionately “I would love nothing more Harry”. You both ate dinner realtively quietly only making small talk here and there. Harry even helped you to pack so you could stay with him for the next few days. You followed behind Harrys car in your own to his house, he helps you get settled before both climbing into bed. Harry had his head resting on your chest as you massage his scalp, he places a kiss to the plush of your breat sitting up a little “I have something for you pet” Harry rolls over grabbing a small jewlery box from his side table, you push yourself up to rest your back against the headbored “you didn’t have to get me anything H” you whisper kissing his cheek, “I’m pretty sure you’ll love this” he says passing you the small box, you take it from his hands slowly looking up at him with pleading eyes before openeing the box to find a key, you look up at Harry your eyes wide, that cheeky smirk you knew too well playing on his lips “I want you to be able to come and go from my place as you please, even when I’m on tour, you can stay here or just pop in when you feel like it, its entirely up to you”. Reaching out you wrap your arms around Harry tears stinging your eyes “Thank you Harry, it’s perfect” you sniffle. 

Harry moves to cup your cheeks wiping the tears that had managed to slip he kisses your forehead before moving down to your nose then to your lips, the kiss started out soft and slow, moving to become more passionate, Harry’s hands wander down your spine until they find the clasp in your bralette, he flicks it open pulling it from your chest. Rolling you over so that you’re on your back Harry kisses down your chest paying close attention to your breasts, kissing further down your abdomen to your hips nipping at them a little causing you to gasp and giggle squirming in Harry’s hold, he smiles up at you coming back to your lips “let me take care of you?” he whispers on your lips you nod taking his bottom lip between yours before Harry resumes kissing down your body. He kisses up your thighs and over your heated, soaked core, you pant just at the feeling of Harry’s lips over you, he reaches up pulling your panties off with your help, he throws them to the side residing in his previous position between your legs very slowly licking up your slit to your clit moaning on you “so wet for me already pet, what am I going to do without you” he mumbles, you gasp as Harry puts his tongue to work over your clit, teasing your entrance with two of his slender fingers. “Don’t tease me H” you groan tugging at his hair “I just want you close” you whisper on his lips as he connects them back with your own, you moan softly tasting yourself on his tongue, you wrap your legs around Harry’s waist and manipulate you both to get yourself on top.

You reach down pushing Harry’s boxers down letting his cock spring free, you rest yourself on top of him, grinding againt him “my god you feel so good y/n, don’t stop please” you keep moving against Harry before stopping for a moment quickly adjusting Harry’s member to line up with your entrance you lower yourself down slowly letting Harry fill you up. You both moan out simultaneously resting your forehead to Harry’s as you both adjust. You begin to rock your hips against Harry’s, his pubic bone hitting your clit perfectly “Harry…” you pant “fuck…you feel so good Harry” you cry our hands on his shoulders as Harry buries his face in your chest, kissing and sucking across your breasts as he thrusts up to meet you as you grind into his hips causing you to gasp and shriek as Harry hits that little spot deep inside your walls. Harry holds your hips slamming you down onto his cock as his mouth hangs open crease present in his forehead “y/n…fuck baby that’s so good” he groans “c’mere” he mumbles sitting up more lifting you off him he turns you into your stomach laying you down into his mattress lifting your hips to meet his he plunges back into you from behind one hand grasping your hip the other reaching around rubbing your clit he leans down kissing along your spine “you look fucking delicious like this baby, such a good girl all spread out just for me” he growls in your ear, you loved this side of Harry it was such a turn on for you, you whimper as he thrusts into you harshly his fingers working magic against your clit “fuck me harder H, feels so fucking good” you moan trying to catch your breath. Harry grips your hip tighter thrusting into you harder.

Moans and skin slapping were the only things filling the room “Harry I’m close!” You pant griping the sheets in one hand Harry pulls out abruptly causing you to whimper turning to look at him “I’m sorry baby, I just want to see you cum, I’m sorry” he whispers laying you on your back gently lifting your knees to enter back into you his thumb coming back into contact with your clit. “Want you to cum for me sweetheart, let me see that pretty face” Harry mumbles “fill me up H please, I want you to fill me up” you beg starting to come unravelled with a simple few more rough thrusts from Harry and rotations of his thumb against you, your back was arching against Harry pushing your breasts out as you begin you shake and squirm under him “fuck! Harry! I’m cumming!” You scream and whimper as you have one of the strongest orgasms of your life causing Harry to fall into you holding one of your hips filling you up with thick warm ropes of cum as he grunts into your shoulder “fuck!” He groans panting against you feeling the warm air from Harry mouth on your skin. You automatically wrap your arms around his shoulders holding him as close as humanly possible.

You both just lay together coming down from by far, one of the best experiences so far with Harry. He kisses your shoulder moving to your lips pecking them softly “I’m sorry, pet, did I go to far?” He asks moving to lay next to you still connected at your core. You shake your head “no, not at all H, that was incredible” you respond before kissing him softly “I think I might need some help to the bathroom though” you whisper your cheeks turning a crimson red at the statement. Harry couldn’t help but break out in a grin “of course love” he crawls off you kissing your body on the way down he slowly pulls out as not to overstimulate you too much before picking you up as if you were the weight of two single grapes walking to the bathroom. Similarly to what he had done just a few nights prior Harry set you on the toilet before heading out to give you some privacy and grab some bits and pieces.

It settled your anxieties the way Harry always put you at the forefront when it came to aftercare, but it honestly made you wonder how you were to survive without him in the coming months, your second conversation with Jeff loomed in the back of your mind ‘it’s different when he’s on the road’ what does that even mean?!

Read parts I, II,III, IV, V

The next night felt a little like deja vu for you, you styled your hair the same, put on the same dress and even did your makeup similar to how you had in London. Six twenty five rolled around you were putting some earrings in when there was a knock at the door, you walk over and open the door hoping to God that this time it would be Harry.

Standing before you was the most handsome man in his black pinstriped suit that somehow managed to accentuate his toned arms, a beautiful bunch of flowers in his hand with jonquils dotted around in the arrangement, he never ceased to amaze you. “Hi love, you alright?” Harry peeks from around the flowers smiling at you, you couldn’t help but smile back at him “I’m good H, how are you?” You ask as Harry leans in to kiss your cheek softly which you gladly return “I’m good love….sorry I’m a little bit early I should have texted” you shake your head quickly “no no no…it’s ok I promise, I just need finish getting ready” you smile as Harry nods “I’ll pop these in some water for you” Harry moves through your kitchen grabbing a vase like it was second nature to him.

You finish getting ready opting to change your lipstick from a nude to red you grab your coat and head back out to the kitchen to see Harry sitting on a kitchen stool waiting for you, flowers next to him in a vase. “Thank you for the flowers H, they’re gorgeous” you place a kiss on his cheek causing Harry to smile his cheeks turning a crimson red “you…” he starts taking your hands “you are absolutely stunning” he smirks kissing your head causing you to blush this time. “I could say the same about you curly, this suit is incredible” you whisper hands escaping his to rest on his chest. “Thank you” he rests his hands on yours you just stare at each other for a while taking everything in.

“Should we head to dinner?” He asks softly you nod slowly grabbing your purse heading out hand in hand. Harry drove you both to a small restaurant not far from his house he helps you out of his car and walks you into the restaurant his hand on the small of your back. Walking in you see only a single table in the centre of the room and a waiter “Harry…what’s going on?” You ask looking up at him he had a small smile playing on his lips “I wanted it to be just us” he takes your hand walking you towards the table pulling your chair out for you “thank you, this is amazing” you whisper to him kissing his cheek softly before sitting down.

Dinner went without a hitch Harry had organised everything perfectly, the wine was incredible and the dessert was to die for, Harry knew you better than you care to admit when it came to your taste in food. You were just sitting down chatting when an odd silence fell upon you both. Harry looks at you and sighs softly “I know you probably don’t want to talk about it sweetheart but I just wanted to apologise again for London it was my fault, I still hate that I treated you that way-” you shake your head taking Harry’s hand across the table “H, stop…it happened we can’t change it, I just want to move past it…please” Harry couldn’t help but bite his lip “you’re too good to me” he whispers kissing your hand you couldn’t help but smile “we always said we’d stick by each other” you shrug. Harry looks at you for a moment trying to find his words a little shocked at how incredibly forgiving you are of him, this just made him fall for you even more.

****

“Would you like to go for a walk love?” Harry asks pulling you to his lap, you sit across him wrapping your around around his shoulders “where did you have in mind?” You ask “what if I said it’s a surprise?” Harry smirks, you giggle a little resting your forehead to Harry’s “I think I like the sound of that” you whisper softly your lips mere inches from Harry’s, soft pink in shade and begging to be kissed, Harry must have been thinking the same thing because just moments later he speaks up “it this ok pet?” He asks, you nod against him. Harry’s hands land on your waist pulling you closer, one hand moving down to your hip rubbing his thumb over it squeezing a little. You slowly lean in closing the gap between you, pressing your lips to Harry’s it was as though everything was falling into place the way it was meant to.

Harry moves to cup your cheek with one hand holding you close with the other, you couldn’t help but smile on his lips turning into a fit of giggles, Harry smiles on your lips slowly pulling away “what’s got you all giggly my sweet girl?” Harry asks brushing some hair behind your ear “you’re just amazing Harry” you smile pecking his lips “so are you sweetheart” he grins leaving little pecks all over your face and neck causing you to giggle even more. “Should we head off?” He asks placing a final kiss to your nose, you nod playing with the small amount of stubble littering Harry’s cheeks.

He helps you up off his lap before standing himself, Harry holds your waist from behind leaning down kissing your cheek, “I’ll be right back, just need to fix up the bill” you have a look around the restaurant as Harry pays, looking over the photos that must be decades old showing the history of the restaurant and some photos of Italy. After a few minutes two strong arms wrap around your waist “Find anything interesting?” Harry asks placing a few kisses down your neck “just admiring Italy, it looks beautiful” you feel Harry smile into your neck “maybe we could go sometime? You would love it” you turn to look at Harry absolutely beaming at him. “You think so?” You ask turning in his hold you face him properly. He nods, a smirk growing on his lips “of course love, Italy is made for you, it’s warm and sweet and full of romance, we could have an incredible time”. You couldn’t help but blush somehow Harry had managed to sell you on Italy and compliment you all at once, you could just melt like mozzarella at this man’s way with words. “Let’s add it to the bucket list then” you grin at Harry who simply leans in kissing you sweetly before taking your hand “looks like we have a few holidays to plan” he smiles kissing your temple as he walks you from the restaurant to his car.

On the drive you notice you’re heading towards Harry’s place “Curly what are we doing?” You ask he doesn’t respond but sucks one side of the inside of his cheek trying to hold in a smile “you’ll have to wait and see” you shove his side a little as he pulls into the garage he gets out of the car quickly racing to your side opening the door holding his hand out for you to take, getting out of the car you smile kissing his cheek thanking him on the way past.

Harry takes you out to his backyard pulling out a chair for your “sit baby” he whispers, you oblige taking a seat confused to what is happening. Harry kisses your cheek before kneeling in front of you taking your leg in his hands. He slowly kisses down your thigh past your knee, your calf and eventually gets to your ankle where he undoes your heel pulling it off, he then works his way back up your leg, going a little further up your thigh. Harry looks up and winks at you before repeating the movement on your other leg, he then helps you up pulling you in for a passionate kiss cradling your bum in his hands. He quickly flicks off his own shoes and socks as well as his blazer, he rolls his shirt sleeves up showing off some of the tattoos that litter his body causing your breath to hitch before holding his hand out, you gladly take it.

Harry leads you out onto the grass of his backyard and through a second gate that leads down to the beach where there were candles lining a picnic blanket. As you got closer to see a bottle of wine and two glasses as well as some charcuterie. “H, babe…did you do this?” You ask looking over at him. You look over to him already smiling “I had a little bit of help from Mitch and Sarah” he looks across at you biting his lip softly to hide his wide grin. “How about a little walk first?” He asks you smile and nod. Harry takes you further down to the waters edge just enough that the waves would lap at your feet as they crash into the shore.

This was everything you could want and more.

You had walked hand in hand a little way down the beach when you decided to get a little adventurous. You pull Harry in towards you unbuttoning his shirt pushing it off his shoulders before reaching down undoing his pants. He quickly picks up on what your doing and sheds the garments leaving them on the shore. You reach behind you to undo your dress letting the front fall from your chest leaving it bare, you push it down over your hips leaving you in your black lace panties. You toss your dress over with Harry’s clothes and walk back into the sea the water slowly rising up your legs Harry smirks holding your waist following you in “wait, c’mere you” Harry smirks pulling you to his chest moving his hands to squeeze your bum you giggle placing your lips on Harry’s your tongue grazing his bottom lip before pulling away.

Harry looks down between you seeing your breasts squished up against his chest, he sighs not sure how to react to everything “I don’t know if I should punish you or worship you, God you’re stunning” he groans out grinding into your thigh as a wave crashes against your back causing you to jump a little not expecting the cold water so suddenly. Harry holds you close kissing across the top of your shoulder “should we head inside?” He asks cupping your cheek as your hands wander over his arms you nod. He pecks your lips softly which soon turns into Harry’s tongue fighting your own, he soon moves planting kisses down your neck sucking just above your collar bone causing a moan to slip from between your lips. Harry’s keeps kissing down your chest until he makes it to your breasts. He looks up making eye contact with you for a moment before taking your left breast in his mouth swirling his tongue over your nipple. Your hands automatically move to Harry’s hair a wetness gathering between your thighs not just from the waves crashing into you. You reach down to palm him through his boxers causing him to moan against your chest sending vibrations right through you “shit” you mumble gasping “inside H” you whisper grasping his shoulders.

Harry quickly moves taking your hand pulling you out of the water he helps you to pull his shirt on before pressing his lips to yours again “don’t want the neighbours staring at what’s mine do we?” He smirks against you, “I’m yours now am I?” You ask kissing back tugging Harry’s bottom lip with your teeth “God I hope so, you’re perfect” he whispers against your lips causing to the smile, he pecks them once more before hastily getting you inside. “Wait H, what about the picnic blanket and the candles?” You ask as you were both about to race past them “ah, right” he says forgetting about the arrangement he quickly goes around blowing the candles out moving the set up to his backyard you following behind with various candles in hand Harry helps you to set them all down on the outdoor setting to cool before taking your hand resuming what you had initially started.

“Not trying to distract me are you Miss Y/L/N?” Harry asks pulling you into him his hands holding your waist “wouldn’t dream of it Harold” you smirk letting his shirt you were wearing fall open exposing your breasts to the cool air, Harry’s eyes widen at the gesture, you slip the shirt off your shoulders and walk to Harry placing your hands on his chest he leans down smashing his lips to yours without hesitation, he holds your waist keeping you close for a few minutes before reaching down hooking his hands behind your thighs lifting you up into his arms. You hold onto Harry’s shoulders for dear life for a moment not expecting the movement that he had managed to pull off without breaking the kiss.

He takes you to his bedroom not running into a single piece of furniture or wall on the way, he lovingly places you in the middle of his bed slowly pulling away from you admiring the site before him. You smirk a little biting your lip softly as Harry’s hands run up your thighs hooking his fingers into your panties pulling them down slowly before pushing your knees apart. You gasp as the cold air hits your warm centre, Harry leans forward placing a kiss to your lips before trailing them down your neck, he begins to kiss down between your breasts before paying equal amounts of attention to each one. You gasp as he lets your right nipple go with a pop Harry glances up at you and winks making his way back to your lips.

You pull him closer to you, arms wrapped around his shoulders. Harry smirks against your lips reaching down between you placing his hand over your already drenched pussy “already so wet for me” Harry murmurs on your lips as you moan softly against him grinding your hips into Harry’s hand “don’t tease me H” your hand meets his over your heat pushing Harry’s hand down further until he has two fingers knuckle deep inside of you. You arch your back against Harry panting “why do you have to be so good at everything Harry, fuck” you moan out your breath hitching in your throat as Harry changed angle so his thumb could rub your clit. Your arms move up Harry’s back scraping with your nails panting “H, wait, can we…can we try something?” You ask Harry’s eyes locking with yours his movements slowing but never stopping.

“What did you have in mind gorgeous?” He asks placing small sweet kisses across your chest “I wanna…” you pause for a moment unsure of how to ask for what you wanted “it’s ok baby, you can ask me anything” he whispers placing a soft kiss to your lips “can I give you a blowjob…while you eat me out?” You ask softly instantly feeling warmth rising in your cheeks. Harry pauses looking at you before nodding a smile creeping onto his cheeks “of course sweetheart, we can try anything you want” Harry begins placing soft slow kisses to your lips before looking up at you “hold on tight” he winks you wrap your arms and legs around him before he flips you both so that you were on top. Harry helps to reposition you kissing the inside of your thighs “this might be my new favourite view” he smirks grabbing at your ass causing your cheeks to go red once again.

Harry helps you to push his boxers down letting his hard cock spring free you immediately begin to pump him slowly admiring him as his tip begins to leak, you lap up the pre cum moaning on Harry’s tip at the taste Harry shudders at your movement “fuck, this is going to be fun” he whispers before latching onto your clit with his tongue, you gasp sitting back further on Harry’s tongue “fuck Harry!” He was sucking your clit perfectly you would be coming in no time.

You slowly lick from the base of Harry’s cock to the tip letting the saliva accumulate before swirling your tongue around his tip sucking softly before pulling away, Harry groans at the loss of contact you smirk at his reaction when he suddenly plunged two fingers back into you causing you to moan out in pleasure. You gather yourself before going back down on Harry you feel him nudging the back of your throat causing Harry to moan on your clit causing you to moan back onto Harry.

He was hitting you in just the right spot you didn’t dare move, your first orgasm fast approaching “please, don’t stop Harry” you beg before continuing to go down on him your toes begin to curl you let Harry go with a pop before moving down paying some attention to his oval organs, you lick across them before briefly popping one in your mouth before having to let it go throwing your head back “fuck! Harry I’m gunna cum!” You scream as your orgasm washes over you, your body convulsing over Harry your juices coating his fingers “that’s my girl” he mumbles under you “so fucking perfect” he sighs as you come down from your high. He slowly removes his fingers kissing your right ass cheek a few times before grabbing your hips to lay you diagonally across the bed.

He makes his way to your mouth kissing you passionately “so good to me” he whispers on your lips. You cup his cheeks legs still spread Harry laying between them “Harry” you whisper softly nudging his nose with your own looking into his eyes “you ok pet?” He asks keeping your close. You smile nodding “I’m perfect” you sigh smiling at him “make love to me Harry…please, I just want all of you” you whisper resting your forehead against his. You feel Harry trying to hold back his smile “of course sweetheart, I’d love nothing more” he smiles cupping your cheeks kissing you softly. As he’s kissing you he moves his hips up to position himself at your entrance pushing himself in slowly, you break the kiss letting out a sign of relief at Harry’s presence inside you. You drape an arm over Harry’s shoulders pulling him back to you placing soft, slow kisses to his lips. Harry keeps his thrusts strong but slow his pubic bone grinding down into your clit stimulating you just the way you needed.

Harry moved his lips from yours to kiss down both sides of your face and neck before rest his forehead to yours pecking your lips occasionally, he continues to thrust slowly groaning against you after a few minutes “I’m close” he whines his thrusts begin to get harder causing you to wrap your legs around his waist “fill me up H…please I need you” you whimper placing a hand in his hair. He takes his hand placing it between you both to rub slow circles into your clit causing you to arch your back “Fuck Harry, your gunna make me cum” you moan meeting his thrusts as you grind your hips. A few beats pass and your toes begin to curl brows beginning to furrow trying to hold off as long as you could so you would climax with Harry “shit, Harry I’m coming!” You moan out not being able to hold on any longer, your orgasm completely taking over your body, you shake under Harry feeling your pussy pulse around him you continue to moan out his name sending him over the edge as he grips your left hip thrusting twice more before he lets out a breathy groan as he fills you to the brim with his cum, he leans over you his own body shaking and convulsing he takes your lips in his trying to calm his body back down he moves a little to lay beside you intertwining you’re legs so he didn’t have to pull out before he wanted to.

At least half an hour passes with you and Harry simply staring at each other coming down from your highs. Harry’s hands running up and down your back, yours playing with the curls at the back of his neck. Harry leans in pecking your lips softly “successful date?” He mumbles against your lips. You giggle a little and smile “perfect date, Curly” you whisper pulling him closer resting your forehead to his. “Shower?” He whispers softly you nod against him “yes please” you whisper back, Harry slowly pulls away from you his softened cock also leaving your body. Harry kisses down your chest a little before wrapping his strong arms around you lifting you from the bed. You squeak a little at his actions wrapping your arms around him he carries you to the bathroom placing you on the toilet to ensure you were on top of your aftercare. He gives you a moment grabbing some extra towels and some clothes for you both he returns to you already in the shower. Harry shuffles in behind you wrapping his arms around you “you’re so beautiful” he smiles against your skin kissing across your shoulder. You grin turning in his grip “I could say the same for you Curly” you smile up at him

Harry sighs softly “you know love, I think we …should date…like properly date” he says looking into your eyes your surprise at his comment evident but your wide pupils and open mouth. You think about Harry’s words for a moment before nodding “you know what, I’d love nothing more than for us to be together H” the smile you were trying to hold in creeping it’s way onto your face before you physically couldn’t hold it back. Harry leans in kissing you softly but with so much passion it felt like your heart was going to jump from your chest. “I promise you, I’ll make sure I get regular breaks in tour so I can come and see you or for you to come to me if you wanted, I’ll FaceTime as much as possible I promise you I’ll be there when you need me” you couldn’t help but melt at Harry’s words “that sounds perfect H, let do it all, let’s sleepover, text all the time do ridiculously cute things together, we’ve wasted enough time away from each other” you whisper softly letting the water hit your skin. Harry leans down smashing his lips to yours….to keep things simple, Harry kept you up most of the night…

CHASE V

Read part I, II, III and IV

Waking up still in the air was a surreal experince for you, the only other time it had happened was when you had first moved to LA a few months prior. This had been the most time you had spent on a plane in… well, ever. You woke with a stiff neck due to laying on Harry’s shoulder for the last few hours, trying to stretch it out a little you stand up trying not to wake Harry or his family heading towards the bathroom.

On your return you notice Harry was beginning to stir, you sit back down beside him trying to be as quiet as possible, you barely got the chance to sit down before Harry spoke up. “Not trying to Mission Impossible your way off the plane I hope?” he grumbles sleepily you couldn’t help but giggle a little at his remark, deciding to give him the same amount of cheek back you lean over as not to be too loud, “maybe next time, forgot my parachute” you whisper Harry tries to stifle a chuckle and you notice a hint of a smirk across his lips. He reaches out grabbing your hand engulfing it with his own “are you excited for London?” he whispers still not once having opened his eyes, you smile to yourself before responding “I’m always excited for London, I miss it” you whisper back leaning up kissing his jaw softly. Harry hums at your action squeezing your hand “we have a couple of days before the show in London, would you be interested in getting dinner?” he asks finally opening one eye to peer in your direction, you look up at him grinning biting your lip softly, “do you mean like a date Curly?” you try to hide your smile resting your cheek on Harry’s arm he grins waking up a little more “I do, I do mean like a date…” he pauses, “so? Would you Miss Y/L/N, like to go on a date with me?” he asks smiling down at you, you look up at him with doe eyes and nod “I’d love to H” you giggle. Harry couldn’t hold back his smile he leans down nudging your nose with his own before connecting your lips in a soft and tender kiss. He slowly pulls away and you hear Gemma across from you both “can you two cool it, you’re so cute it’s sickening” she grumbles before pulling the blanket she had up and drifting back into her slumber. Harry scoffs before kissing your head getting himself comfortable before drifting back off to sleep himself.

You stayed awake the remainder of the flight only waking the others when it was time to land, you were all quickly whisked off the plane and into two separate cars, Harry not leaving your side, you were driven to Harry’s London home and he helped you to get comfortable and somewhat settled before he had to head out to some meetings with Jeff. You decided that rather than spending the day inside you would go out and get something nice to wear to dinner with Harry tonight, you went to a few stores and couldn’t find anything you liked, even sending a few dresses to Gemma for her opinion, by around 3pm you still hadn’t found anything, nor had you heard from Harry. You walked into a store slowly losing hope that you’d find something you loved and that you thought Harry would want to take off you immediately when you came across a velvet dress with a small slit running up the thigh, you couldn’t resist, you had to try it on. You were amazed, it was like the dress was made for you, it hugged you everywhere you could possibly want it to, you could only imagine how Harry would react. Just as you were about to send a photo to Gemma your phone buzzed with a text from Harry. 

harold :) : Can’t wait to see you tonight love, a car will pick you up at 7, I’ll meet you at the restaurant xx

You smile to yourself biting your lip, it felt like this date with Harry had been a long time coming. You’d obviously spent time together before but this was the first time you and Harry had been on a proper date, it was bringing up all kinds of nervous feelings for you and honestly making you a little anxious. Even knowing that it was Harry, someone you had known for almost half your life, you couldn’t help but feel your palms getting a little sweaty, but you don’t hesitate to reply to his text.

 Y/n: Just picked up something special for tonight, can’t wait to see you either, I hope the rest of your meetings go well! Xoxo 

You put your phone away and purchase the dress before heading back to Harry’s house you sneak in a quick nap given you didn’t sleep the entire flight. You begin getting ready, shower and style your hair into loose waves highlighting the natural changes in tone of your hair, you put on some makeup going light on the base and sticking with natural shades for your eyes, finishing off with a subtle pinkie nude lip gloss.

Right on 7pm you received a text from Harry’s driver saying he had arrived. You grab your coat and head downstairs climbing into the car greeting the driver. After a fifteen-minute drive you arrived at a small Italian restaurant, it was very…Harry, you thought to yourself. You walked inside and were seated right away without even having to tell the hostess yours or Harry’s name, you were immediately served a glass of wine and a glass of sparkling water. You wait for around ten minutes when you start to wonder where Harry was, you figured he got caught in traffic but decide to text him anyway to make sure he was ok. 

Y/n: Hey you, I made it, just checking that you’re on your way, I can order you a drink for when you get here? Xx 

You send the message and wait a few minutes for a reply that never comes, another twenty minutes had past, and you had heard nothing so you text again,

Y/n: Checking in to see if you’re, ok? Please text me back H, I’m getting worried.

You sigh a little sipping at your wine, the reality hit you that this is what dating Harry would be like, dates that start a little later and sometimes not the best communication, but you were willing to deal with all of that and understand that Harry had an incredibly hard and taxing job that required his 24/7 attention. A further thirty minutes past and you still hadn’t heard a peep from Harry, you call once, then wait ten minutes then try to call again, with no luck. The wait staff had even been over to ask if you wanted to order or wait, you edge on the side of caution and wait, ordering yourself another glass of wine instead. At 9pm you try to call Harry again after still not hearing from him, this was the call that broke your heart, he answered but what you heard on the other end of the call was far from what you expected. Harry was clearly yelling down the phone because he couldn’t hear anything over the music in the background, not that there was much to hear because you were so shocked at what you were hearing, no words came out of your mouth. You could hear the bass over the phone and the voices of people calling Harry’s name to return to their presumably large group “Hello? Hello?!” Harrys voice booms through your phone you gulp not knowing what to say “whatever, fuck off then” he mumbles before hanging up.

You sit stone cold for a moment not knowing how or what led to all of this, you felt betrayed and used, you wanted to get out of that restaurant as soon as you could. You quickly pay the bill and flag down a taxi, on the ride back to Harry’s you were so worked up and angry you booked into a hotel for the next few nights. Finally resting your phone in your lap everything begins to sink in tears start to spill from your eyes. Wiping them hastily you take some cash from your purse and hand it to the driver as he pulls up out the front of Harry’s “I just need to head inside and grab my things, can you wait?” you ask the driver he nods and you quickly head in grabbing your belongings as quickly as you could, you couldn’t bring yourself to try and call or text Harry instead opting to leave a note on the kitchen counter ‘I want to be something you want, not just something convenient, all my love – Y/n’ and with that you left, getting back in the taxi and giving the driver the address to the hotel you your head against the window sighing softly, you felt humiliated you’d flown across the world with this man to be left in a restaurant. 

Checking in and making your way up to the hotel room you check your phone for one last time that night, with still nothing from Harry but a message from Gemma to both you and Harry, 

Gem: Have fun tonight lovebirds, paint London red!

You sigh throwing your phone to one side trying to hold in your tears as best you could, heading to the bathroom, throwing your hair up out of the way you rid yourself of the makeup on your skin as well as the dress that you were so excited to wear tonight. You pull on an oversized shirt and underwear before climbing into bed staring out the window of your hotel room, you roll onto your back staring at the ceiling until you eventually drift off to sleep. 

Waking the next morning you felt worse than ever, you just have been grinding your teeth from the stress of the night before, you woke up with the biggest headache and horrific pain in your jaw. You groan grabbing the pillow next to you dropping it over your head and letting a breath out through your mouth before throwing it to the side again. You glance over at your phone not even wanting to go near it. You get up and head to the bathroom to shower trying to wash away the disappointment of the night before.

You dry your hair, get dressed and finally check your phone to see dozens of missed calls and texts from Harry you shove your phone in your pocket feeling you didn’t have the headspace to work through it all yet. You take your purse and head out for the morning stopping by your favourite bookstore before heading to a cafe you found while at University in London you sat reading until around 2pm when you felt your phone vibrating across the table. You turn it over seeing Anne’s contact pop up, your heart skips a beat a little you felt as though if you answered you’d be reprimanded for leaving the way you did eventually you thought about it too long and the call ended up going to your voicemail you sigh sitting back in your seat ordering a hot chocolate before turning your attention back to your book.

“Harry sweetheart, I’m sorry…” Anne sighs look at the disappointment on her sons face “just give her time love, she’ll come round” Anne reassures kissing his head “I messed up Mum, I don’t blame her for not wanting to talk to me I don’t know how I even ended up out last night, it was one meeting after another and then we had another meeting at a bar and then it just got out of hand….I knew I was supposed to be having dinner with her that’s what makes it worse” he grumbles like a teenager.

Gemma had been sitting quietly across from her brother “You know what Harry, you did mess up, but you can’t change it, it happened , blame yourself, blame Jeff, blame whoever but at some point you’re going to have to stand up for yourself and rule your own life, if you want to be with Y/n then you’ll both have to make sacrifices, she’s been there from day one Harry you’ll be lucky if she forgives you for this” she says before getting up walking to the kitchen. Sometimes Gemma was harsh but Harry appreciated her hard truths particularly when he was acting like he was the one who had been screwed over.

****

A week had past since Harry’s no show you’d returned to LA and gone back to work as planned but unplanned was being so miserable over Harry’s actions. He hadn’t even tried to make contact with you since you’d been in London which kind of set in concrete how he felt about you which obviously wasn’t the same way you’d been feeling about him.

Thursday morning rolled around you’d gotten up early, gone to the gym before work and still managed to arrive late to work meaning your were also late to your first meeting. You dump your bag at your desk pulling your laptop and resources from inside, you grab your water bottle from your desk and head to the conference room. You walk in not taking much notice of the client “Sorry I’m late everyone! Early gym classes plus LA traffic is just a recipe for disaster”. You quickly try to organise yourself when the client speaks up “that’s ok, take your time love” you stop in your tracks your jaw falling open, you know that voice…too well. You look up and see an empty conference room with the exception of Harry.

You stare directly at him for a moment trying to find your words, “Harry what are you doing here? I-I’m supposed to have a meeting” you look around for the actual client, he sighs “I may have made a few calls and made some changes to the schedule, I figured it was the only way I’d be able to see you”. You cross your arms and sigh softly pinching the bridge of your nose with one hand “we’ll considering you blocked out two hours of my day it’s not like I have much else to do” you sit down and glance at Harry “do you even remember what you did Harry?” You ask giving him as little as possible.

He lets out a breathe thinking for a few moments “there’s no excuse for what I did, I never imagined treating you like that I deserve to be treated like crap and given the cold shoulder because of it. It was a mess on my part and I’m truely so sorry that I did that to you sweetheart, I ruined the whole experience for you the date, the London show all of it, I’m so so sorry” he sighs looking over at you, he looked genuinely mortified by his actions. You roll your bottom lip between your teeth mulling over Harry’s words before responding “I just don’t understand, you turned into someone I don’t even know, you must have seen my messages I tried to call and when you finally answered all you could do was tell me to fuck off, how was that fair-” Harry’s head snaps up when you mention the phone call “I did what?” He asks looking absolutely heart broken you shake your head trying to hold your tears in. “When you finally answered the phone all I heard was the music and voices in the background, I couldn’t even bring myself to speak, eventually you told me to fuck off” a few tears slip from your eyes you quickly wipe them away.

Harry gets to his feet making his way to you as more tears begin to slip from your eyes “I’m sorry, I’m so sorry Y/n, please let me try to fix things” he whispers pulling you into his chest. You couldn’t help it, wrapping your arms around Harry’s torso as he has one arm wrapped around your waist the other cradling your head as you sob into his shirt “I just want my Harry back, that wasn’t you, I know it wasn’t I just want Curly back” you cry into his chest. Harry simply holds you while you cry he rubs your back softly with his free hand placing soft kisses to your hair. When you eventually calm down you slowly look up at Harry who was already looking down at you tears of his own brimming his eyes you swipe your thumbs under his cheeks.

“Please let me take you on a 2.0 date, to try and fix this, I know it doesn’t even start to make up for what I did but I really…really want to try, I want to be Curly Harry for you” Harry looks down brushing your cheek with his thumb. “I’ll take you on a thousand dates if that’s what it takes to prove to you what you mean to me sweetheart” he kisses your forehead softly before pulling you back into his chest. You sniffle a little, deep down you knew the Harry from that night wasn’t your Harry, hell it wasn’t even the same Harry that was here now but you were protective of your feelings. “One chance Harry, one chance to fix it that’s it, I’ve known you forever, I know that the Harry from that night wasn’t the Harry I grew up with”.

“One chance” he whispers “I’ll make it up to you I promise baby” you look up at him eyes red and cheeks tear stained he places a kiss to your forehead before resting his forehead against yours. “Tomorrow night” he whispers “I’ll pick you up at six thirty and we’ll have the make up date to end all make up dates I promise” you nod against Harry “ok you better make yourself scarce I have to look somewhat presentable for my next client” you giggle a little wiping your nose, Harry kisses your head “you always look perfect to me” he shrugs relaxing his hold on you “have a great day love, I’ll see you tomorrow” Harry places a soft kiss to both your cheeks before saying goodbye leaving you in the conference room alone.

Part VI coming soon…

CHASE IV

Read Parts I, II and III

The plane ride in the scheme of travel wasn’t that long, but it felt like forever. The entire duration of the flight Harry was either on the phone or talking to Jeff or someone else on his team about the upcoming shows and the tour that was to follow and at no point had it really hit you that at some point, regardless of your relationship with him, Harry would be leaving again and things would probably go back to how they had been for over ten years. The thought made you feel sick, this man…meant the world to you and had done for so long, was all this leading to a broken heart for you and life to continue as normal for Harry?

Harry hadn’t picked up on your change in demeanour the entire flight due to being so busy himself but you still wanted to make the most of the week you were going to spend with him and the time you were going to spend with your families. Once the planes wheels were firmly on the ground Harry stood and turned towards you holding his hand out. “Ready love?” He asks as you take his hand standing and nodding, he smiles softly in your direction noticing for the first time since you got on the plane that something was different. You stare and try to read one another for a moment before you step closer to Harry and place your lips against his trying to convey everything you were feeling there and then. Apparently it worked, when you pull away Harry looks concerned and moved a hand up to push some hair from your face before cupping your cheek, the crease between his brows more prominent than ever with his concern. “Stay with me instead?” He asks. Initially when everything had been booked Harry’s team booked you a room each which would have been fine if not for the situation you had with Harry now.

You nod at Harry’s question before following close behind him off the plane onto the tarmac where there were several cars waiting. Harry’s hand didn’t leave yours the entire time reassuring you that he wanted you there and that he himself was trying to be present. He helps you into the car and make it to what you thought was going to be the hotel but was in fact an apartment building and between heading in through back entrances and it being so late there weren’t many people about at all, not even a single flash from a camera was seen. Harry helped with your bags getting you into the elevator and up to the top floor you would be staying on with him, he lets you in ahead of him and you instantly see the touch of Harry in the decor you turn to look at him “you own the apartment don’t you?” You ask turning to face Harry with your arms crossed, you weren’t even mad just incredibly surprised at how mundane Harry tries to keep his life. “I guess, if you want to get really technical, I own the building” he shrugs. Your jaw drops. Harry owns this entire building you can’t help but fall for him a little harder at how humble he is about his life. 

You march towards him just as he’s closing the door slamming your lips on his. Harry jumps a little not expecting you to launch on him the way you did. Once he realised what was happening he grabs your waist with one hand and cups your cheek with the other pulling you close, after a few minutes you slowly pull away pecking Harry’s lips a few times before looking up at him “Hey” you smile at him causing him to chuckle “Hi” he whispers leaning down kissing you gently before resting his forehead against yours. You both stay like that for a moment before Harry takes you to the master bedroom you unpack a little setting out the essentials for the morning before climbing into bed. Harry pulls you closer to his chest placing a kiss to your temple “tired?” he asks you nod a little, “you?” you ask he nods trying to pull you closer if it was even possible, “sweet dreams curly” you whisper placing your lips on his before resting your head on Harry’s chest, you begin to drift off to sleep when you feel Harry place soft kisses to the top of your head you smile before drifting off into your slumber.

You wake before Harry and his alarm in the morning you couldn’t help but grin at the man beside you his hands still firmly around your waist chin resting on your head, you manage to sneak out of his grip and get ready for the day ahead without waking him. You were walking back to the bedroom to grab your phone when you hear Harry’s alarm go off. You stand in the doorway admiring Harry as he rolls over turning his alarm off stretching and reaching his arms out to find the empty spot next to him, he groans “Where’s my girl” he sighs you couldn’t help but blush at his words, he sits up rubbing his eyes before looking around spotting you at the door “there she is” he whispers to himself “how did you sleep love?” Harry asks getting out of bed walking towards you, sleep still alluding him. “I slept really well H, you?” he pulls a sleepy smirk kissing your head “best sleep I’ve had in months” he grins placing his hands on your waist, “you look pretty” he smiles, as Harry goes to lean in and connect his lips with your own there’s a knock at the door causing Harry to drop his head onto your shoulder and groan “I just wanted five minutes with you” he whines before walking toward the door.

As soon as Harry opened the door Jeff barged through with a tray of coffees in hand as we’ll as breakfast, “get in the shower and get dressed were already late” he pants putting the coffees and food down on the kitchen counter Harry grabs his coffee and a banana passing you your own cup on his way past quickly kissing your cheek. You sit down on the couch overlooking the New York skyline as the shower runs in the background, a few minutes pass when you hear Jeff clear his throat behind you, you swing your head around to see him already looking at you. “Everything ok?” you ask politely before sipping from your cup “I just…” he starts before running a hand through his hair “what’s going on with you and Harry? I’m his manager I probably should know” you were a little taken back by Jeff’s question, Harry had always raved about how amazing Jeff was and how the pair had become quite close and that they even had dinner with Jeff’s wife on a regular basis. “Oh, umm I-… I’m not really sure, I guess were friends, did Harry say something?” you instantly regret the question worried about the answer you could get. “Harry’s a very busy man he doesn’t have time for a relationship, don’t expect that from him” Jeff retorts and all of a sudden all of your fears were true. You sat staring at the couch coffee in hand as the running water from the shower ceased.

Soon Harry emerged from the bedroom dressed and ready to go, he comes over to you and places a kiss to your temple over the top of the couch knocking you out of your little trance you were in “ready to go pet?” Harry asks his hair dripping onto your shoulder, you nod standing. Harry fetched the luggage you had both brought up the night before taking it downstairs you carry your’s and Harry’s backpacks containing the essentials for you both for the next twelve hours. You didn’t say much at all on the car ride to the venue and Harry was enthralled by the conversation Jeff was offering leaving you to watch out the window as New York passed you by.

The rest of the day left you mostly alone. You didn’t know anyone on Harry’s team and his mother and sister were yet to arrive, but it had been so long since you had seen them you weren’t even sure you’d have much to talk about. Harry finally got a moment to himself before the show and came looking for you straight away, you’d been sitting in his dressing room on you laptop for the last few hours doing a little bit of work while you had the chance. “Hey pet, what are you up to?” Harry asks shutting the door behind him moving to wrap his arms around your shoulders over the top of the couch, you smile a little pecking his cheek as he rests his chin on your shoulder. “Just doing a little work while I have a minute” you say softly not really interacting. Harry notices the subtle cold shoulder and lets you go kissing you head softly as he does so. He figured you were a little overwhelmed by everything and still stressed about your own work. “Sweetheart…” he says taking you laptop from you before sitting down next to you “I’m sorry today hasn’t played out the way we talked about, Mum and Gem will be here soon, they’re so excited to see you… I’m so excited to perform for you and for them, I’m so so happy you’re here y/n”. Harry’s words made you feel a little better, this was a whole new world to you and one you weren’t sure about just yet.

Anne and Gemma soon arrived, and you were forced to put on a brave face. Both of them were so excited to see you it was by far the biggest hug Anne had ever given you. In no time you were saying your good lucks and goodbyes to Harry and being escorted out into the venue. Even after not seeing each other for over ten years Anne knew something was wrong. “Y/n love, are you alright?” she asks wrapping a motherly arm around your shoulders giving you a squeeze you nod, “yeah of course, I’m fine” you give her a quick smile and even now Gemma had picked up on your tone “c’mon girlie, spill it” she says bumping you with her hip causing you to giggle a little “I haven’t spent time with you two since I was sixteen and somehow you still know when somethings wrong” you chuckle before sighing “Is it Harry?” Anne asks turning a little to look at you, you shrug looking down at your hands “He’s amazing, honestly, he’s not changed in forever, I don’t know if Harry said anything but we’ve had a few…moments, I guess” you pause looking up as the house lights begin to dim and the stage lights begin to brighten “things are just a little different at the moment, I guess we’re in a weird situation” you admit. Anne hugs you to her side and Gemma wraps her arm around the other side of you before speaking up “as far as Mum and I know, we never had this conversation…” she pauses looking at you as you nod “he talks about you a lot, I think sometimes he just doesn’t get the freedom he would like, in the work that he does” she says. You smile a little and thank them both as the show starts.

Everything went off without a hitch, Harry was incredible the new album was incredible, the way he interacts with his audience was incredible. You were most definitely, falling for this man, all over again. After the show you made your way backstage with Anne and Gemma who were quick to say their goodbyes as they were heading back to their hotel to get their bags before flying to London with you and Harry. Leaving just you and Harry alone in his dressing room you begin packing up your things quickly brushing through your hair pulling it into a loose braid for the flight while Harry was in the shower. You heard the shower turn off, some shuffling of heavy feet and the bathroom door open, soon after there were a pair of strong arms wrapping themselves around you and a pair of plump pink lips kissing from behind you ear down to your collar bone. “Can I help you there Harold?” you ask smirking a little biting your lip, you feel him chuckle against you kissing your jaw “I have some ideas about what you could help me with” he smirks against your skin nibbling a little you lean back into his hold before turning to face him “I might like the sound of that rockstar” you smile up at him “I’m so proud of you curly, thank you for letting me a part of all this” you look up into his emerald eyes before connecting your lips with his you feel him smile against you “my job is easy when my favourite person is in the audience” he mumbles against your lips before picking you up wrapping your legs around his waist sitting himself back on the couch.

“The things you do to me y/n you’ll never know” he whispers kissing down one side of your neck causing a moan to escape your lips. Harry pushes your top up your torso and over your head before pausing looking you up and down “you look absolutely delicious” he bites his lip running his hands up and down your sides causing goosebumps to breakout on your skin, Harry reaches forward kissing across your cleavage, he unhooks your bra in a matter of seconds throwing it to one side before taking your left breast in his mouth rolling your nipple between his teeth causing you to gasp tipping your head back “God, Harry…please don’t tease me, we haven’t got much time” you moan hastily pulling your skirt up your legs to Harry’s surprise. “I would have done this before the show if I knew you needed me so badly” he moans against your skin as you grind into him over the towel wrapped around his waist “but then how would I reward you for your hard work?” you ask rhetorically lifting your hips pulling the towel open, a little surprised to feel Harry’s cock spring up hitting your clit perfectly causing a gasp to escape your lips. “Please H, want you to fuck me” you beg, reaching down to move your panties to one side tracing two fingers through the wetness that had gathered between your legs, bringing your hand back up to you mouth you suck one finger in causing Harry to whimper pulling you hips closer to him, you moan as his tip hits your clit you immediately begin to grind slowly on him ensuring that with each motion his tip stimulated your clit just the way you wanted. The sight before Harry was sending him wild the most beautiful girl, he had ever laid eyes on straddling his lap head tipped back with a finger coated in her own juices being sucked to absolute mercy by her own mouth, Harry couldn’t hold back any longer he pulled your finger from your mouth taking your wrist placing the other finger in his own mouth tasting your juices just the way he wanted. He begins to buck his hips up meeting with your own motion causing you both to moan Harrys free hand moves to rest on the small of your back supporting your motions.

Harry removed your finger from his mouth before smashing his lips to yours “Baby…” he whispers against your lips “come here” he mumbles connecting your lips with his again pulling your hips closer as he does so you push your hips back a little pushing the tip of his cock into your entrance causing you both to jump in surprise but moan in pleasure. You slowly sink yourself all the way down onto Harry’s length breathing heavily as you adjust he kisses you passionately his arms wrapped around you as he helps you to begin moving, you soon find your rhythm together Harry thrusting upwards as you sink your hips down, you keep a quick pace knowing that anyone could come knocking at any minute, the sound of skin connecting and muffled moans filling the room “H…” you pant your hands holding Harry’s shoulders Harry groans in response watching where your connecting before throwing his head back in pleasure “Fuck, baby I’m going to cum, I want you to cum with me” he pants breathlessly you deepen your movements the stimulations becoming overwhelming “you’re so good Harry, don’t stop” you groan as you reach for Harry’s hands interlocking your fingers allowing you to move faster and lean further onto Harry, you felt the knot in your stomach growing, sex had never felt better than it did right in this moment. Harry felt you clenching around him causing him to hold your hands tighter, “Harry…” you pant “please, I’m coming” you moan as your entire body begins to shake and you begin to convulse against Harry’s body you let his hands go wrapping your arms around his neck pulling him into you his hands find your ass squeezing as his own orgasm takes over his body. Sticky and panting you slowly open your eyes to see Harry already looking up at you “here” he whispers wrapping a hand in your hair pulling your lips to his in a passionate, appreciative kiss.

You both come down from your highs together and stay where you were as Harry softened inside of you, without pulling out Harry stood holding you close to him making his way back to the shower, Harry sits you on the counter in the bathroom “I’ve got to pull out to turn the shower on pet, are you ok?” he asks kissing your forehead. You nod a little resting your forehead to Harry’s, you gasp as he pulls out holding his bicep. Harry holds you for a moment planting little kisses across your face and neck before moving to turn the shower on. He helps you off the counter onto your shaking legs and into the shower tending to you like he had done only days before. He even helped you to dry yourself off and get dressed into clean comfy clothes, completing the ensemble with one of Harry’s t-shirts. “Thank you Harold” you whisper smiling softly, you were exhausted and honestly had no idea how Harry was still standing after performing the way he did in his show and on the couch. “My pleasure sweetheart, are you feeling ok? Can you walk to the car, I can carry you?” Harry asks he sounded a little panicked causing you to giggle “I’ll be ok H I promise, just come here you goose” he steps towards you, wrapping your arms around his neck wresting one hand in the soft curls adorning Harry’s head you lean in kissing him softly “I could get very used to this” Harry whispers against your lips before kissing you again.

Your interrupted by bashing on the door. “Harry! Hurry up you’re late…again, fuck sake” you recognised Jeff’s booming voice and you were instantly taken back to the apartment that morning you sigh softly unwrapping yourself from the man in front of you. You help one another pack and Harry holds his hand out to you, you gladly take it and head out to the awaiting cars and meet Harry’s family on the plane. You get comfortable next to Harry resting your head in his shoulder. He leans over placing a kiss to your temple, out of the corner of your eye you spot Anne smiling at her son you close your eyes smiling to yourself slowly drifting off to sleep.

There were several things still that you felt were unanswered and your conversation with Jeff was looming over your. You had such strong feelings for Harry but did he really feel the same way or was it just out of convenience that he wanted to keep you around.
