Hey there guys! Welcome to the spin off from Never Let You Fall and You're Never Alone! This story is focusing on... duh duh duh... Beth Phoenix and Harry Smith! Please don't be too hard on me, but this was legitimately begging to be written. :)
Disclaimer: I own nothing except the original characters (not introduced yet) and the plot :)
So read and review away! :)
How I got into this predicament, I have no idea. All I know is that here I am, locked in a spare dressing room with my best friend's cousin, a man five years my junior. He didn't show it though, if anything, he was more mature than me most of the times. Should I be calling this a predicament though? I didn't quite mind it actually. As of right now, there is no place that I would rather be.
"Kiss me," He murmured. I obliged instantly, allowing my mouth to taste his carefully, but with little hesitancy. This is what I had wanted for a long time. His mouth moved from mine and attached to my neck. I sighed under the feel of his lips, my eyes opening lazily and staring at the wall in front of me blankly. I softly scratched his back with the tips of my acrylic nails, causing him to emit a low growl. I looked up at his beautiful brown eyes and I saw only one thing... desire.
"We're not doing this now," I whispered, slightly panting. He nodded his head and linked his fingers with mine before leaning in for a brief, sweet kiss.
"You're amazing Nix," He said, causing me to blush. It was amazing, Harry Smith knew how to make me, the 'Glamazon' blush with just one look and a few whispered words.
Harry and I spent all afternoon in that locker room. We had gotten to know every single thing about each other (the stuff we didn't already know anyway) and now here we were, in the middle of a makeout session. Harry was sitting against the door and I was straddling him. The kisses were new to both of us and we couldn't get enough of them. The sudden and rather quick arrival of knocking on the door caused us to both freeze instantly and I stared deeply into his eyes.
"Beth are you in there?" Gail called out, curiosity filling her tone.
"Yeah," I called out.
"Are we all still coming to your room for the movie marathon? We invited some of the boys and I messaged Harry but he hasn't written back yet." Gail informed me.
"Uh, yeah, we'll definitely be doing the movie marathon still. You have my room key, let yourselves in. I'm going to be an extra fifteen minutes." I said.
"Okay love, do you have a ride back?" Gail said.
"Yeah I do, see you soon Gail!" I called out. After hearing her footsteps, I leant forward and placed a kiss on Harry's lips.
"We've got uh... five minutes before we've gotta go and act normal." I said, pouting softly.
"Why can't we act like a couple?" He asked. I ran my hand down his arm and looked down at his chest. His fingers found their way under my chin and he lifted my head up softly.
"Why can't we act like a couple?" He repeated, his voice softening.
"It's not what you think Harry, I want to so much. I want to be able to touch you, hug you and kiss you in front of them all but I also want to talk to Natalie about it. She's my best friend Harry, and she's your cousin." I said. Harry nodded his head and smiled at me softly before initiating another kiss.
"I agree but it's gonna be hard not kissing you. That's all I want to do now," He murmured against my lips. I smiled and stood up, hearing his groan in protest and smirking.
"You can always stay afterwards," I said, looking down at him. He stood up and enveloped me in a massive hug.
"I'd like that," He said, kissing the top of my head. I blushed and walked over to grab my bag.
"I'll leave first and meet you at your rental because you are my ride back to the hotel buddy," I said. Just before I opened the door, Harry pushed me back against it and planted kisses all over my face. I squealed and giggled as he did it, trying to squirm from his warm grip. He grinned at me brightly and opened the door.
"There, now I think I can wait until the rest of the people that will be in your room leave before I attack you again." He said. I laughed and pushed him.
"Bye Nixxy," He called out as I walked down the hallway. I narrowed my eyes and spun around to face him, amusement written all over his face.
"Stop calling me Nixxy," I said, before continuing to walk down the hallway. I felt my cell phone vibrate in my pocket and I knew that it was Harry so I ignored it.
Having Harry in the same room as me and not being able to kiss him was torturous. The hotel room I had managed to get was pretty decent and I walked into my bedroom, leaving everyone else out in the living area. I was going to get changed when all of a sudden, the door connecting to the bathroom opened and Harry came in. I smiled at him softly and he held his arms out. I walked into them gratefully and sighed happily.
"I needed to hold you," He murmured. I nodded and closed my eyes, listening to his heart pounding in his chest.
"I don't wanna go back out there," I said.
"You have to," He said softly. I shook my head and pouted.
"Don't make me," I said.
"Nix, I promise you that I will be here after they all leave anyway. You see that bed?" Harry said, turning me around and pointing towards it with one hand, whilst the other rested on my hip. I nodded my head and he pulled me back against him, as tight as he possibly could.
"After they all leave, I will carry you to that very bed and I will cuddle and kiss you until you fall asleep." He said. I looked back at him and gently kissed his jaw line.
"Please, stop it," He murmured.
"Why?" I asked, kissing his jaw again. He finally pushed himself away from me and smirked.
"Later," He replied. I nodded and motioned for him to leave.
"Why do I have to leave?" He asked.
"I'm getting changed." I said. I saw his eyes brighten and I shook my head.
"Get your butt out Baby Bulldog!" I teased playfully. He rolled his eyes and went back through to the bathroom.
After everyone left, I looked over at Harry and saw that he was fast asleep on the ground. Knowing it would only hurt him in the morning; I bent down and gently shook his head. He rolled over, his head landing in my lap and he looked up at me blearily.
"Nix," He groaned.
"Come on, you're gonna get a backache. Come to bed Mister Smith," I said. Harry got up and stumbled to the bedroom and I followed after him. As I stepped into the room, he tackled me into a hug and I squealed. He lifted me up and gently placed me in the bed. I felt him get in behind me and I turned to face him. I bit my lip nervously and then looked up at him, pressing my lips against his.
"What is this," I asked when I pulled away.
"This would be a relationship." He said.
"You really want to be in a relationship with me?" I asked disbelief evident in my tone.
"Yeah, I really want to be in a relationship with you Nix, I wouldn't have let it go this far otherwise," Harry replied. I smiled and kissed him again.
"Goodnight Nixxy," He said after our makeout session.
"Beth," I said, allowing my pout to reappear.
"Oh, I'm sorry, goodnight Beth," He said. I smiled and settled into his arms.
There was still one hurdle up ahead that both of us needed to confront head on. That hurdle was named Natalie Katherine Neidhart. Would she be happy that her best friend was dating her cousin? As Harry's breath evened out, telling me that he was asleep, I kept my eyes wide open, as I thought about the possible scenarios of Natalie's reaction.
I could only hope that it would be a positive reaction.
So there you guys go! First chapter of Why Wait! I hope you all enjoyed and please review!
