[16] Closer
I stir a little in bed dragging her warm body closer to mine. She wraps her small arm over my chest, her warm breath tickling my skin. This morning couldn't get any better. I place a kiss on her head before I get up out of bed, this causes Tatum to groan and me to laugh. I stretch before strolling towards the bathroom the cold hitting my bare flesh.
"Where are you going Styles?" Tatum says her tone full of playfulness.
"To take a shower..." I playfully say back, "care to join me?"
She puts a finger to her pink lips as she looks up towards the ceiling letting me know she's thinking about it. I laugh at her attempt it's really adorable on her. I cock a eyebrow at her biting my lower lip, my green eyes glancing at her. She raises an eyebrow back at me her lips curled into a smirk. She shoves off the covers and gets out of the bed.
"I would love too." She finally gives.
"Right this way," I wink at her grabbing onto her hand and leading her into the bathroom.
After what seems like an hour of being in the shower with Tatum we finally get ready for the day ahead. I put on a light blue button up and a pair of my favourite black skinny jeans with a pair of white vans. Tatum wears a black tank top and some black jeans with a pair of white converse. I look her up and down studying her with all I can, it's like I'm trying to piece a puzzle together. She grabs a white sweater and looks over to me.
"What?" She whispers slipping her sweater on.
"Nothing... I'm just trying to figure you out thats all." I say looking down at my cellphone.
Five miss text from Louis.
Where are you?
Are you okay?
Call me back.
Are you with that girl you left with?
Let us know you're okay!
I let out a sigh, a smile appearing on my face as I remember what happened last night. I text Louis back telling him I'm okay, and that I fell a sleep in Tatum's hotel room. I get an immediate text back from him saying okay.
"Harry?" Tatum ask and I glance over to her.
"Yeah," I whisper my eyes never leaving hers.
"Would you and you're friends like to join me for brunch this afternoon... with my family?" She wears a tight smile and I give her a nod.
"Sure, I'll ask Louis." I state as I text Louis asking him about breakfast.
I reply back telling them it's Greyson's family. I get a immediate reply back, but it's from Liam. I read it my eyes following every word of the text he just sent me.
Sure! Is Lindsay going to be there?
I don't know, but probably. Greyson going to be there.
Are you okay with that?
I pause trying to find the right words to respond with but nothing comes to my mind. I quickly reply back with a quick response, even though I don't know if I mean it.
Yeah.
Okay see you there.
I turn off my phone, shoving it into my pocket. I get off of the bed my eyes meeting Tatum's. She gives me a smile as she opens the hotel door.
"Ready?" She challenges.
"Yeah, I can't wait." I dumbly reply.
She walks out the door and I shut it before following her down the hall and towards the elevator. The ride feels like it takes a million years, but that's just me. We pull up to a large apartment building it's super nice and very modern. I see Louis and the rest of the boys from across the street and I smile, I might just get through this. We wait for them to cross the street so we can all enter the building together.
"Mates this is Tatum." I say introducing her to the rest of the boys.
"Nice to meet you guys," She whispers shaking each of their hands.
"Ready?" She challenges glancing at us.
"Yeah," Louis answers for all of us.
Tatum begins to talk to Niall, Liam, and Zayn while Louis keeps me in the back. His arm is draped around my shoulders as we make our way into the busy building filled with people.
"She's gorgeous." Louis claims as he watches her. "Good choice she's perfect for getting back at Lindsay and Greyson.
I shake my head at him, "it's not like that... not anymore. I really like her, she doesn't like me for being famous she likes me for me, Harry Styles."
Louis squints his eyes at me. "That's good then, and from the looks of it she's nothing like that bitch Lindsay."
I glances at Louis a frown on my face. He puts his hands up in defence a sorry look in his eyes.
"Sorry," he mutters as we make our way into the elevator.
Tatum laughs as Niall, Liam, and Zayn Rein act something that happened from a comedy movie we watch last week. I smile to myself a good feeling warming my heart. She's nothing like Lindsay, not in anyway. The one night I spent with her I actually feel like I know her better, closer, then I know Lindsay, and I've know Lindsay since I was a child. The elevator door dings open and we all step out revealing a large living room and kitchen filled with people working. I walk up to Tatum and whisper in her ear.
"I thought this was a family brunch?" I ask, triggering a smile from her.
"It is, but more people are coming." She turns around and winks at me.
She walks off to great people and that's when I see Lindsay and Greyson talking over in a corner they laugh and smile. A heavy pain fills my chest as Greyson puts his hand on Lindsay's belly, he starts talking to the baby. My heart feels like it's being crushed.
"He has no idea," Louis begins, "maybe he needs to find out?"
"Louis don't start anything." Niall replies back.
Louis shrugs at his comment. "Why not?"
"You know damn well why... so back off." Liam interferes into the group chat.
"Styles," Greyson calls out, arm in arm with Lindsay at his side.
"Greyson," I mutter shaking his hand.
"What are you doing here?" His tone is confused but it's not upset.
Tatum cuts in before I can come up with words.
"I invited them, we meet last night at a club so I told him he should come and have fun with his friends." Tatum buzzes, her eyes glaring at Lindsay.
Greyson looks at Lindsay and then back at us.
"Okay I'm grabbing a drink." He unlinks Lindsay from his arms. "Have fun."
Great this should be fun.
