The Deadly Seven |H.S|

Chapter 21

My lungs felt tight, my eyes were still closed and I was waking up with a heavy feeling in my chest making my breathing harsher, I opened my eyes taking a long breath in, only to look down and realise the reason for my struggled breaths was Harry's big head asleep on my chest.

He was lying on the side of his stomach and had the side of his face pressed to my chest and one of his arms slung over my stomach, he looked very deep in his sleep so I wasn't planning on moving, he looked so peaceful when he slept, I'll always savour these little moments where he didn't look worried, and I hated to think that last night I was responsible for some of that worry.

I wasn't sure what time it was but I still felt exhausted, the last things I remember last night was making fun of Harry in the car and then he got all weird but I didn't have time to focus on it because I feel sleep quicker than I ever had before, next thing I remember was Harry basically carrying my up to his room and helping me into his clothes before crawling into bed with me and I passed out again, I was so emotionally exhausted I couldn't even think about staying awake to talk to him last night.

I wanted to apologise for getting angry at him last night, I understand I was hurt and stressed but that didn't give me the right to get mad at him when he was only trying to help, granted he might not have gone about it the wrong way but I'll wait and see if he says anything about that.

I can't believe Luke...well of course I can, he's a fucking lunatic, but I couldn't wrap my head around the fact that I was going to have to deal with this, and now he has those weird friends that also hate me. The scariest thing about all of this though was that Harry has seen it now, he knows a bit about Luke and I and i bet that persistent bastard will not leave this along, it was sweet that he cared but If I was going to let him help me deal with this, I was going to have to tell him more about Luke and mines relationship, and that's what was scary.

I don't even know if I was going to let him help me, could I? Harry nearly stormed out of the club twice last night when I told him what happened and last night was probably the nicest Luke's been to me, I can't imagine what Harry will do if I tell him the rest of it...I mean for god's sake, the man carries a gun around for some unknown fucking reason.

Speaking of the gun, that's something I still need to unpack, I should be more worried or at least question him more about what the hell he does that requires him to carry a gun around, and not only him, Dom and those other three guys had one too, I'm not oblivious to it, it just doesn't bother me as much as I think it should, I trust Harry and I feel safe around him so I've never felt afraid around him when he had it, but I would still like to know why he needs it.

There were definitely some things harry was keeping from me, that was very obvious but we had only known each other for a short time so I understood his need to be distant about things.

There was something about the way all four of them were acting last night....Dom kept mentioning 'we' and he almost said something to me that I guess he shouldn't have because Harry stopped him, then all of them wanting to know what happened to me was weird, I don't know if I'm just not used to people caring but it seemed odd and also the fact that Harry mentioned they all knew about the café, I assumed Harry told them but why?, and then Jack wanting to talk to Harry in private, they were stupid if they thought I didn't know what they were doing, I probably should have stayed up there though cause the idiots ended up fighting each other for some reason.

I let a long sigh, trying to push all these thoughts the back of my head and rest for a little longer, I brought my hands up to tangle my fingers in the loose curls at the nape of Harry's neck.

As scary and crazy as it was to admit it, I think I might like this big idiot that's asleep on me.

"Hmmm" Harry startled making me still my hand "don't stop" he mumbled wrapping his arm tighter around me...it didn't help anyone to deny how warm It made me feel.
