(FIFTEEN)

Adam and Harvey slept in his room until it was time for them to leave. They didn't have to be up for another thirty minutes, but Adam didn't want to be late. The girl groaned and hid under the blankets in protest, but Adam wasn't having it. They both needed to get ready for their game and she knew it too. He had tried to pull her up and convince her that they needed to go.

    "You have to get up, beautiful." She groaned again and wrapped the blankets tighter around herself, pleading for her boyfriend to lay down next to her and sleep. "I'm not going to sleep again. We already took a two hour nap. Besides, we have to be ready in an hour and clearly you are not." She peeked out from under the blankets and furrowed her brows at her boyfriend, wanting him to change his mind. "Not the eyes, Harv. Not those eyes. You can't always use them just because they work. Harvey, you have to get up and I know that you know it's true. You know I'm right, and I know that you don't want to get out of bed because I know you love your naps, but c'mon Harv, get out of bed." She giggled as she slowly tempted Adam to take a longer nap. She knew that it was working too because he walked closer to her and sat down on the side of the bed, slightly shaking her and rubbing her back. It was something in between. Her whole body was covered as she reached her hand out, grabbing Adam's hand and holding it, coercing him. He sighed and kept telling himself that he shouldn't lay back down, and he shouldn't go back to sleep.

Everyone knew three things about Harvey. She was scary when she spoke Spanish, she's always hungry, and she loves her naps. Napping is like one of Harvey's superpowers. She could do it forever if she was given the chance. According to Luis, the longest nap she's ever taken was on their tenth birthday. She told everyone that she was going to take a quick nap before her party and didn't wake up until the next day at nine in the evening. She missed her whole birthday and the party started at one. She slept for thirty three hours, and how she did it, no one knows. She was very proud of herself for a while after that, and it was her favorite story to tell. The time she had slept through her and her twin's tenth birthday.

    "How do I get you out of this bed, Harv?" She let out a small, I don't know as Adam sat there, thinking of something that would work, when finally an idea popped into his head. "I won't kiss you until you get out of bed." She pulled the sheets down and glared at her boyfriend, sitting up and staring at him, face to face.

    "We both know how much you like to kiss me, Adam Banks, and we both know that I'm irresistible." The last part of her statement was just her being funny and it put a smile on his face, because to him, she definitely was. She lightly pecked his lips and laid back down, throwing the blankets over herself once again and smiling to herself. Everyone on the team knew that Adam would die if he knew he couldn't kiss or hug or even hold hands with Harvey. The team couldn't see either of them with anyone else but each other.

    "I hate that you know that." He sat up and walked to the door as his idea sounded better and better. She sat up, hearing his footsteps go farther and farther away.

    "Where are you going and why are you leaving me?" She didn't mean for it to sound clingy but to her, it came off that way. She cringed at herself as Adam smiled. "What?" He shook the smile off of his face and quickly opened the door.

    "I'm getting Luis." She quickly jumped out of the bed and ran out of the room, kissing Adam on her way out. "Why does that always work?" She ran into her room and threw on her black crop top, black high tops, Adam's dark grey sweats, and she grabbed her bag. It took her three minutes to get dressed and make her way back to Adam's room. "You're already finished?" She nodded her head and walked over to his bed, getting back under the sheets as Adam walked around his room looking for something.

    "What did you lose this time?" Adam looked up from his clothes and smiled when he saw what Harvey was wearing.

    "Well, I guess I didn't lose my sweats. Turns out they were just stolen." She chuckled as Adam ran towards her, jumping onto the bed, right on top of her. She smiled as Adam wrapped his arms tightly around her in a protective manor and lightly kissed her nose, making the girl blush. "You are even cuter when you blush." She kissed his cheek as he pushed a piece of hair out of her face. "I didn't think it was possible." She looked at him confused and waited for him to finish, "For someone to look this beautiful."

Harvey Raine Mendoza was never the girl to have a boyfriend or talk about boys. She was never one to gush over a certain boy or even talk to one that wasn't on her hockey team. She was a quite girl that always pushed her feelings to the side so hockey was the only thing she could think of. She was never one for being lovey dovey with someone, but then she met Adam.

Adam Banks changed her life and it was a good change. She thought the kind of love she feels for him was only something you would feel in fairy tails, but with him it was so very real. She never knew what it was like to love someone so much your heart felt like it was going to burst, and with Adam, she felt that way every damn time she looked at him and she was glad she did. She was glad that she played hockey, because if she didn't, she would have never met Adam, and her heart would have never been so full of love.
