I woke up the next morning when it thundered. It was still raining out. I don't think it has stopped since it started last night. I see Harry's black shirt on the floor and pick it up to put it on along with my bra and underwear. I had to giggle when I saw the rose on the end table and see Harry still asleep. So I climbed on his lap and straddled his thighs over the blankets. He opened his eyes and blinked a few times. He didn't look like he was ready to wake up. The mess of curls on top of his head amused me a little and he ran a hand over his face before returning his hands to my legs. "Morning." I say and lean over to kiss him once and he groans, rubbing his eye. He's such a little kid when he wakes up. 

"Fuck." he curses and I raise an eyebrow as he shifts and makes an uncomfortable face. 

"What?" I ask and he frowns. "I'm sorer than shit, damn it." he says and I laugh. "What's sore?" I ask and he furrows his eyebrows at me. "My back, my abs, everything your sitting on right now." he finally cracks a laugh at the end of his sentence and I move back a little to relieve his discomfort. "Then turn over. I'll fix it." I say cheerfully and he gives me a weary look before shaking his head. "That's too much effort." he complains and I laugh, moving off of him so he could move. He rolls over and I return to sitting on him again and rub out the tight muscles throughout his back. 

I was more interested in the contoured lines on his back, especially when he moved his arm. "You should stop working out Harry." I say and see his eye open from the side. "Why? It's my anger management." he mumbles and I chuckle. "You're too buff. It drives me crazy. Stop it." I say and see him smirk. "I don't complain when you wear those tight ass jeans. You know those drive me nuts. Your point?" he asks and I furrow my eyebrows. "Really?" I ask and he laughs. "It doesn't take much from you Caroline." he says with his eyes closed. "And besides, nobody weak could ever satisfy you." he says confidently and I laugh, laying down with my hands on his shoulders to kiss his cheek. "You're the only one that has. Don't let your ego explode." I say and he laughs. Except when he pushed himself up, I fell off to the side and he tackled me, rolling off the bed, he landed over me on his palms. 

"Ego huh?" he asks and I rake a hand through his hair to mess it up more. "I thought you were sore?" I ask him and he laughs. "I am. That hurt like hell." he says placing a hand over his stomach. The sheets were still wrapped around him but I don't think he cared. "So what are we doing today?" I ask, sitting up on my elbows and he plants a kiss on my lips. He tasted like the wine from last night. All I could taste of myself is the metallic aftertaste of his blood. 

"I don't know. Are you done recording with Ed?" he asks and I shrug. "We have a few more things to do today and that's it." I tell him and he shrugs. "Then after you get those taken care of, why don't we pack up and I can get our plane home." he says and I look at him funny. "Why so early?" I ask and he smirks. "So we can start packing." he winks and I laugh. "How are we going to get all of your stuff across the ocean without taking a cargo ship?" I ask and he rolls his eyes. "It's already furnished, we don't have to bring everything." he says and stands up off me.

"Don't you have an album Launch in two days, Harry?" I ask on the plane and he stares in the distance for a moment before giggling. "Yeah, I do." he says quietly and shoves a grape in his mouth. "So.... we can move after your album launch." I say with an amused smirk and he frowns. "Bloody hell." he curses under his breath and shoves another grape in his mouth with a frown. I laughed. "Didn't think that one through, did you?" I ask him and he sends me a look. 

"Hush." he grumbles and I laugh, plucking a grape off of his tray and eating it. "Cute." I roll my eyes and he hooks an arm around my neck, pulling me into his chest and holding me here. "The attitude is not necessary." he says amused as I couldn't free myself. But somehow when I tugged hard enough, I slipped off the seat and half drug him with me. Which made me more frustrated. "Reason number two why you shouldn't keep working out." I huff and he smirks. "Why? Cause you can't beat me?" he says and I frown, sitting in the isle. It was a private jet, we were the only ones back here. I can look as stupid as I want.
