Mariam's POV:
I don't know why I tried to kill myself. I can't take the idea of being alone and lonely.
I closed the door and sat on my bed. Harry was at my door within seconds
What is he doing here?

"Hey Mariam...can I come in?" He asked and I nodded.

He walked in and sat on the seat across from me. I'm glad he didn't sit too close because I would have probably been uncomfortable.

"You want to talk?" I asked him after he didn't say anything for minutes.
"yes...how did you know?" He asked me and I raised an eyebrow at him.
"Well, I'm not stupid!" I said and he smirked.

"What's been going on lately?" He asked me and I shrugged before answering.
"Even tho I barely know you...I will tell you what happened." I began talking and he nodded as a sign for me to keep talking.

"Shane and I were on a date by the lake on the day that the incident happened." I said and let out out a sob before continuing, "Things got heated and we were both screaming at each other on the top of our lungs .....I don't even remember what exactly happened." I said and he nodded.

I wiped a tear that has fallen out of my eye with the back of my hand before continuing to tell him everything.

"Let it all out.." he said and I nodded.
"He left me and I started crying...before I knew it I had passed out and I thought about calling him,but my phone was dead so I decided to walk." I said and before I knew it he was kneeling down beside me.

He put his hand on my knee and I kept talking. I had to tell someone everything I was feeling because I feel like I'm about to explode.

"When I was walking this man whore came up to me and he was acting all creepy." I said and Harry nodded.

"Was he old and you just cursed?" He asked and I sighed and wiped the tears from my eyes.
"Does it even matter?" I said and he laughed.

"I didn't think you cursed." He said and I shrugged.
"I only curse when I am mad Harry and there is a lot of things you don't know about me." I said and he smiled.
"Was he old?" He asked me again.
"I don't know,but he was older than me." I said and he nodded.

"Anyway...then he grabbed my arm and I begged him to stop,but he did not take no as an answer.." I stopped to cry a little.
"Asshole!" I heard harry mumble under his breath, but I ignored his comment.

Harry put his other hand on my back and rubbed circles on my back.
"Please don't touch me.." I said to harry and he moved a bit.
"Then he started to touch me and I-" I said until harry interrupted me.
"That Bastard!" He yelled and I cried even harder now.

It hurt to cry because my eyes were dry. Harry looked pissed as hell. I don't know much about him,but I guess he is cool.

"Then somehow after I passed out...I was in a hospital." I said between sobs.
"That's just fucked up,excuse my language Mar,but seriously that dude is a fucking prick!" I yelled and she flinched a little.

"You think I don't know that Hazza..I want to die and I tired too,but my sorry excuse of a husband saved me!" I yelled and this time Harry was taken back by my reply.
"So we are on nickname basis..huh?" He asked and smirked at me.
"Sure." I mumbled and he grinned at me.

"Wait..What did you say about Shay?" He asked me and I shrugged.
"I say a lot of things...oh the part of him being a sorry excuse of a husband?" I asked him and he smirked.
Was smirking something he always does? I just want to slap that smirk off his face.

"Why do you say that about Shay?" He asked and I replied honestly..I wasn't about to lie to him too.
"He left me stranded and all alone at midnight...then the day before I confess my feelings for him,but he shuts me out." I replied as I wiped more tears from my eyes.
"He is an idiot if he doesn't realize that you are an amazing and beautiful lady." Harry says and winks at me. I try my best to ignore his comment. My whole face got red and especially when he said the next thing.
"How about we run away and get married?" Harry suggested and I laughed.

"Why..so he can kill us both?" I replied and Harry nodded.
"Just like Romeo and Juliet..." Harry said and I nodded at him.
"Your so funny." I said to him.
"And your beautiful." he continued my sentence and I smiled a little through my tears.

He honestly made my day better.
"We are now best friends!" He said and I nodded.

My face blushed. He just called me beautiful.
He sure know how to use his charms.

I got interrupted by the knock on the door.
"Who is it?" I asked.
"Who do you think it is love?" Harry asked as I rolled my eyes.
"Come in Shay!" He said and he walked in.

"I'm going to leave now and I'll be back tomorrow..you guys need alone time." he said as he wiggled his brows.
"Hazza!" I heard Shay say in a very serious way.
"I'm leaving Geo and bye beautiful." he said before winking at me as he left our room.

"Excuse my friend." Shay said and I nodded at him.
He walked over and sat next to me.

"What's going on?" He asked and I shrugged as I kept my eyes focused on my fingers.
"Mariam...answer me." he said as I ignored.

"Listen..Shay I am going through a hard time at the moment and I want to be alone." I said as I got up from next to him.
"Why do you want to be alone?" He asked with a hint of guilt in his eyes.
"I like to be alone." I answered even though I was lying.
"So you can kill yourself." he replied and I gasped.

"I'm not stupid!" I yelled at him.
"You already tried to cut yourself anyway!" He yelled back even louder.

He scared me and he knows he did. I know he regrets it, but I don't know how to get past what happened. No girl wants to be like me.

"Just because you want to kill yourself..its not going to make anything better!" He yelled as he came and stood next to me. He ran his hand through his hair and he looked very frustrated.
"Why do you care?!" I yelled and he didn't respond.
He really knows how to make me mad. He should get an award.
"I don't get why you care so much...You said that you will never care about me anyway." I said as he sighed.

"I'm sorry for yelling at you." he whispered and I nodded.
"It's fine." I whispered back.
"But you still didn't answer my question!" I snapped at him as he took my hand.

"What was your question?" He asked as he took my other hand. He placed both my hands in his and he looked at me.

He was more like staring in my eyes.

"Why do you care so much?" I asked him as I looked back into his hazel eyes.
"I care about you Mariam." he said to me as he cupped my face with his hands.

I could not breathe. I was holding my breath. My heart said push him away, but my body won't let me.

"I'm sorry..." he said as he removed his hands away from me and he kissed my forehead.
I honestly was stunned by his actions.
"It's okay...it wasn't your fault." I said to him and he shook his head before leaving me alone in our room.

He is so weird. Why won't he just tell me what's on his mind? He is only making me like him more and more. Damn it! He is just....Ugh! Ya allah, please help me.

Shay's POV:
I don't know how to comprehend what up just happened.
I did not have any feelings for Mariam and I can't.
I know what I have to do now.

I am going to ignore her completely and protect her I guess.
I can't fall in love with Mariam. I go back to work tomorrow anyway and so I will get someone to look after her while I'm gone. This is it...Mariam don't make me like you. I don't fucking deserve you.Why won't she understand this? I can't accept her and I will not!
