Change My Mind

Chapter 113 - Button Up

Lily's POV

"Here, I'll take your suitcase."

Harry hands me his suitcase and then grabs his shoulder bag before he closes the trunk of his car. Taking my hand, he leads the way to the entrance of my building. I pull his suitcase behind me and I sleepily follow Harry inside the lobby.

It's almost two in the morning now so it's completely empty inside except the security guard at the front desk. I unlock the front door and head to the elevator. Neither of us talk, both of us knowing that we're too tired to strike up conversation. I don't mind, though. It's a silence that I'm accepting since Harry's here.

I lean against Harry as we ascend up the elevator, his arm looping around my shoulders and hanging loosely in front of me. He keeps it there as we reach my floor and as we walk down the hallway. Again, I unlock the door and step inside the flat, Harry following right after me.

I'm about to pull the suitcase into my room but it's pushed out of my hand as soon as I take another step. I turn around to find out what's happening but Harry takes my face in between both of his hands and pulls me in for a kiss. He takes off one of his hands from my face and all I can hear is a loud thud. I realize it's his shoulder bag that he's now dropped onto the floor because his hand is placed back on my cheek.

Finally, in the privacy of my flat, he deepens the kiss like I've been craving for ever since we first kissed in the airport. I wrap my arms around his neck, pulling him down closer to me as his hands trail down my body and around my waist.

I pull away to catch my breath but Harry just grazes his lips down to my neck before he starts sucking.

"Let's...let's go to my room," I say breathlessly.

Putting his lips back on mine, his hands move down to the back of my legs. Without having to tell me, I jump up just as he tightens his grip. I wrap my legs around his waist and he holds onto me as he walks us through the hallway and into my room.

He closes the door behind him before he walks over to the bed and carefully places the both of us on the mattress. He rests his one hand on my waist and his other one on the space beside my head to support himself. He squeezes my waist and I take that as the signal to move up the bed. Without stopping the kiss, I move to the head of the bed, resting my head on the pillows before Harry carefully rests his body on top of mine.

I tangle my fingers into my hair and I practically melt into the bed at all of the familiar sensations and feelings filling every inch of my bed. However, as I relax more and more, I can feel the tiredness taking over my body once again.

I moan softly against his lips and reluctantly pull away. He rests his forehead against mine and both of us try to catch our breaths.

"Babe, we should go to sleep," I whisper. "We've both had a long day. We have all day tomorrow before your show to do whatever we want."

I'm not sure whether Harry was anticipating us having s.ex tonight and I didn't want to upset him with stopping it like this. I know how the both of us are when we make love. I know that we need a lot more energy than we have right now to make it worth it, especially since this will be the first time in five weeks since we've last had s.ex.

Harry doesn't move on top of me and I'm not sure how to take that.

"I just want to make sure that it'll be perfect like it's always been."

He finally pulls his head away from mine and I open my eyes to see him looking down at me.

"I feel like I'm going to pass out any second," I continue, giving him a soft smile. "Let's just rest up for the night and wait until morning."
