𝕾ometimes it is so hard to think about anything besides Darlene.

It's something about the way her hair falls over her shoulder, the way her laugh always comes out in the form of a wholehearted cackle, the way her eyes twinkle in amusement every time he says something that he's sure she thinks is dumb, the way she looks back into his emerald gaze when they're lying facing each other on the bed the entire room darkened with the promise of a long night but their sweet tones continue revelling in the harmony and quiet of late night talks.

More importantly, today as he sits on a chair beside her in the backyard while she stays reclined over a chair with only a large green sweatshirt covering her body and her growing bump.

I've never met someone who's so perfect for me, he thinks as he stares at her closed eyes and calm expression silently bathing in the morning light.

It's easy to get lost in his thoughts about her beauty and his ever-growing love for her.

He fumbles with his diary scribbling out a few inspirations for some songs he's been working on lately when he feels Ruby brush past his feet and launch herself straight at Darlene's legs.

The blonde squeals in surprise before tutting and sliding sideways on the chair to bring the cat up in her arms.

"Bad girl, Rubes", Darlene touches her scruff while Harry continues to stare, so in awe of how . . . . unreal she is.

Sensing his gaze on her, she looks up and smiles lightly.

"What?".

He swallows, suddenly feeling nervous — it is always a shock to him how no matter how long it's been she still manages to make him feel this way — and shakes his head.

"Got anything good?", she gestures towards the diary, cuddling Ruby in her arms.

"A couple . . . yeah. I'm still unsure though".

She tilts her head, studying him.

He feels himself warm up from the inside as he registers her affectionate gaze paired with a soft smile.

"Will I get to hear them before? Won't be like last time, right?".

His own lips curve up.

"You'll be the first to hear the finished ones, promise".

She nods still smiling.

"I like that".
