Hey guys I changed a tiny bit of chapter 3, so basically they've known each other for like 2 weeks now - just to let you in case yous get confused:)

Harry's p.o.v
About an hour past and Liz was still sleeping peacefully. I had kept myself busy while she was sleeping, I mostly stared out the window at the beautiful sight of London City. She had a perfect view of the London Eye, Big Ben and other buildings.

I was sitting on her sofa watching the sun go down in science, just enjoying this moment to myself, until I heard loud whimpers coming from Liz's room

I quickly got up and made my way to the bedroom to find Liz still laying on her bed but crying softly. I sat on the edge of the bed looking down on her beautiful face as tears left her closed eyes, I began to stroke her hair in a soothing motion trying to stop her crying and waking up. Liz started crying harder and started to thrash around, I decided to try and wake her up.

"Liz. Wake up baby." I didn't want to scare her anymore so I tried to wake her nicely.
She began thrashing more and turned on her side and bought her arms up to her face as is shielding her eyes from something.

I started to shake Liz trying to wake her up and I was calling out her name repeatedly. "Liz! Liz! Wake up!" I called again.

Her eyes flew open and connected with mine. Her tense muscles relaxed a little as she threw her arms around my neck and cried into my shirt.

Without hesitation I wrapped my arms around her small body and pulled her on to my lap, my legs were crossed so it wasn't uncomfortable.

I rocked Liz back and forth with my body whisper sweet nothing in her ear calming her down, She had calmed down now but let out a loud whimper and Started to sob again.

"Shhh baby, I'm here. Your fine Liz, just a nightmare." I whispered in her ear, apparently my words had comforted her as she tried to get her breathing back to normal.

After about 5 minutes Liz had got her breathing back to normal and now was just sitting comfortably on my lap.

"Thank you" Liz whispered to me,

"Your welcome, baby girl" I whispered back. We sat there in comfortable silence until I asked Liz something.

"Hey Liz?" I said.

"Yeah?"

"Are you sure your okay now?" I asked,

"Yes, I'm fine now, thanks" she replied

"Do you wanna talk about your nightmare? It looked pretty bad.." I stated.

"If you want to, you'll find out eventually" she said in to the crook of my neck.

"Okay only if you want to, baby" I assured her,

"I do," she said "O-okay, well I've been having nightmares f-for about a year now, ever since I saw my parents in a car c-crash" she took a shaky breath and continued "they were pulling up into the drive w-way when a drunk d-driver was speeding down our r-road" she began to cry, I rubbed her back and pressed a kiss to her forehead,

"I saw it coming and I was shouting to my parents to h-hurry and get out b-but they couldn't understand and I was standing at the front door yelling b-but it happened so fast" she cried into my chest, clinging on to me as if I was going to disappear,

"He smashed right into t-them! Sending the car into my next door neighbours, neighbours garden! That's three houses down! That's how much the impact was and that's how they died!" She was still full on sobbing and I don't blame her so would I be.

"B-but when the cars smashed all the glass went flying everywhere! and some pieces of glass cut me, and only two scarred my body, that's why I shield my eyes" she cried.

I held her I my arms tightly letting her know that I wasn't going to let go any time soon. "That's basically it, a few more details here and there but do you wanna know the worst part?" I had a feeling that if I said no she would tell me anyway so I let her continue

"The worst part was before the crash even happened" she had calmed herself down a little by carried on.

"Just before my parents got back I was on the phone to them, they told me they loved me and I didn't say it back" at this point she cried the hardest, this must of broken her heart. No wonder she had no sparkle in eyes and how she was so worried toward Tina.

"This hasn't been a good day for me" she laughed sarcastically to herself.

Elizabeth's p.o.v
I stopped crying about 10 minuets ago so Harry and I moved into the living room to sit on the sofa and watch the city lights come to life. It was about 6 and the lights in the city were all turning on as it was pretty dark by now.

Harry was leaning on a pillow behind him and his legs were laid open on the sofa as I was sitting be between his legs with my back resting against his chest and my head laid in the crook of his neck.

"Liz?" Harry said

"Yeah?" I tilted my head to look up at him to see he was staring out the window, it looked like he was thinking hard.

"I was just thinking.." Ha I told you he was thinking hard.

"About what you said earlier and how the glass cut you and scarred you..." He started,
"Yeah?" I said

"You don't have to but, can I see where it scarred you?" He looked me in the eyes, awaiting my answer.

I nodded at him and began to sit up, Harry realised I needed to move to let him see so he shuffled around and sat opposite me. I began to pull my shirt off so I was left in just my black lacy bra and put it to one side.

"Your so beautiful Liz." Harry whispered to me, I blushed but carried on. I moved my leggings down so that my hip was in full view, I looked at the two scars and cringed. There was one about 7cm long and another about 5cm, they didn't touch but it was like and arrow pointing towards my back.

Harry's hand reached out and traced over the scars, I flinched when he first touched them. He looked me in my eyes and said sorry, I shook my head signalling don't worry.

"They're ugly I know.." I mumbled and grabbed my top then placed it over the scars to hide them. Harry took my hands in his and moved my top away so my cuts were showing again.

"Your scars are beautiful Liz." Harry told me.

"Don't hide them from me or anyone else, they make you who you are...and your amazing Liz."
