Cath's POV

"But what could I give you that you don't already have?" Dean asks.

"A little girl," Annie says in the ending scene of Overboard. A ping of guilt hits my chest and I shift uncomfortably against Harry.

He responds by kissing my forehead saying, "It's gonna be okay, love. It'll work out like it's supposed to." He nuzzles his head in the crook of my neck, and I lean into him in appreciation.

"I love you, you know that?" I ask Harry, stroking his hair.

He looks down at me and I stare up at him in adoration. "Of course I know that. I can't believe you're still with me, and getting married for that fact. I love you too."

My mom is asleep in the chair next to Harry and I, so I stand up to lay our blanket on her. I'd rather not wake her and just let her sleep here for the rest of the night. Harry stands up and we walk back to my bedroom. I already have my pajamas on, so I crawl right in bed and get way underneath the covers. I love the feeling of my bed, my mom says it's the best feeling one in the whole house. I would always find her taking naps in it, or sleeping in it whenever I was staying the night at a friend's house. I've always slept good in it which is strange because it's over a hundred years old. It used to belong to my great grandma and has been passed down for a long time.

Harry takes his shirt and shorts off, leaving him in his boxers. He walks over to my side of the bed, and I look up at him in confusion. He smiles widely showing his dimples, and crawls on top of me and rolls over me onto his side of the bed.

He's giggling like a little goofball and I can't help but giggle too. He's so playful, I love it.

Harry gets under the covers and I turn my body away from his. He pulls me towards him so my back is against his chest, and he wraps an arm around my waist. I lean into him and tangle our legs together, trying to get as close to each other as possible.

"Goodnight, love," Harry says against my hair.

"Night, Harry. I love you," I say, turning slightly to kiss his shoulder.

"I love you too, Cath," he says while yawning.

I feel his heart rate slow, as well as his breathing, which lets me know he's asleep. I lay there, thinking about how much I love him, until I, too, fall asleep.

The Next Morning

I wake up feeling hot, extremely hot, and notice Harry has half of his body laying on top of mine. His head is resting on my chest, his arm around my waist, and one of his legs between mine. I feel sweat on both of our skin, so I shift him off of me. This time, he doesn't latch onto me and hold me down, which surprises me. I take the opportunity to shower and wash my hair. I usually don't shower every day, but I figured my mom and I could start planning Harry and I's wedding. I want to feel nice and fresh while we sit on our laptops all day figuring things out.

I play a new playlist this time. It's got more country songs on it, like: What Ifs by Kane Brown and All I Want To Do by Sugarland, but I also have a few others by Selena Gomez and Taylor Swift. It's got me in a good vibe for today's events. I wanna be in a good mood for my mom and Harry, especially if it's for wedding planning.

I honestly love planning parties and such... it's always been a fun side hobby for me. It's my one thing I'm actually pretty good at. Some of my classmates would have me plan their birthday parties for them, which was basically the only time they would talk or need me for anything. Matt would usually help me with them because he has such good taste in everything. I'd pick out the theme colors and food and he'd pick out the decorations and put it all together. That boy is like the best of both worlds; he's an amazing friend and an awesome designer!

Now that I think about it, I should call him up and have him help us plan the wedding. I'm sure he'd love it, plus I haven't seen him in over a month. I miss him... he's one of the very few people who truly know the real me. I'm gonna call him today and see if he wants to come over for a bit.

After I get out of the shower, I brush my hair and get into my clothes. I open the door and walk out, and I notice Harry is still asleep. He's completely sprawled out on his stomach, light snores coming out of his mouth. It's odd because it's physically impossible to snore on your stomach... I wonder if he's caught a cold throughout the night or if it's just his allergies. If it's his allergies, I feel his pain. My allergies are really bad, too. I have allergic rhinitis, which basically means I have a stuffy nose all year round.

I sit at the edge of the bed for awhile, watching Harry sleep. I could watch him sleep all day; he looks so peaceful. He still doesn't look like he'll be awake anytime soon, so I get up and head into the kitchen.

My mom is sitting at the counter in one of the barstools with a cup of coffee in one hand. She has her laptop in front of her, flipping through different boards on Pinterest.

"Good morning, mama!" I come from behind her and wrap my arms around her neck, kissing her on the cheek.

In return, she wraps her arms around mine and leans into me. She turns her head and gives me a kiss on the cheek as well saying, "Good morning, sweetheart! I hope you and Harry slept well!"

"Yeah, I slept pretty good, but Harry is still asleep. He was snoring and breathing heavily, I think he might either have a cold or it's his allergies acting up. Do we still have some allergy medicine in the cabinet?" I say, pointing to the cabinet next to the sink.

"Yeah, we should," she says standing up and opening the cabinet. "I bet it's his allergies. Mine have been acting up, too. I think there's a new bottle right here," she says grabbing a small bottle from the middle shelf.

"Here. Do you wanna go take it to him quick?" she asks.

"Sure. Let me get him a glass of water." I say shifting over to the other cabinet full of cups. I grab a glass, put some ice in it, and fill it all the way to the brim with water.

I head back into my room and Harry is just starting to sit up as I open the door.

"Good morning, Haz! How're you feeling?" I say to him, walking over and feeling his forehead.

"My nose is really stuffy and my head feels like it could explode, but otherwise I'm fine," he says with a raspy voice and small grin. He rubs his eyes and moves his hands through his hair.

"I kinda figured that. You were snoring while laying on your stomach which was odd, and you were breathing heavier than normal. My poor frog..." I boop his nose with my finger and grin. I hand him an allergy pill and the glass of water, and he smiles in appreciation. He sets the pill in his mouth and gulps down a swig of water like it's a shot. He continues to chug the water down until the glass is empty.

"Wow. Thirsty, huh?" I shake my head laughing at him.

"Yeah, I guess," he shrugs. "I usually drink a lot of water when I'm sick, otherwise I end up feeling worse than before." I reach my hand out to take the glass from him, and he gives it to me while thanking me.

"I'm gonna take a shower quick and hopefully release some of the pressure in my head. I'll be out in a bit," he says grabbing his towel from the day before. He walks in the bathroom and shuts the door, so I grab my laptop from my desk and go back into the kitchen.

I set my laptop down beside hers and pour myself a cup of coffee. I grab creamer from the fridge because I can't drink my coffee black. It grosses me out and is way too bitter and dry. The creamer helps take the bitterness away and gives a nice flavor. My mom still has my favorite flavor: sweet cream. I've been using it since I was in sixth grade. It's so good!

I grab a spoon to stir it around and sit next to my mom. I open my laptop and go to Pinterest. I go to all my boards and the first one that pops up is my "Babies 😍" tab...
