Chapter 20:

(Ellie's POV)

We walked to my aunts in silence, but in a way the silence felt comfortable between us. He intertwined our hands together as we approached the house.

"Do you want me to wait out her until your done?" He asked turning me so I was facing him.

"If you don't mind, its just that they don't like vampires much and I don't think today is the best meet and greet" I explained and he kissed me on the lips to show that he didn't mind. I walked up to the house and from what I could see from the windows, it was extremely bright inside and it looked as if every light was turned on. I knocked on the door and when I did, it opened and revealed the hallway to the house. Before I walked in, I turned around to see Harry behind me, Making me jump

"Harry, Jesus you made me jump" I stated placing my hand on his chest.

"Are you sure your gonna be okay? I don't have a good feeling about this" he said putting his hand over mine. I looked into his eyes before I pressed a kiss on his lips

"Its my aunt's not a murder house" I said as I let my hand go and turned to go in. I smiled as I closed the door on him trying to reassure him that I'll be okay but it was too unusual for aunt and uncle to have every light on. As I walked down the hallway, I noticed that even the candles and the little lights were also lit. I walked towards the kitchen because that's where I always used to find them. The thing is with my aunt is that she smokes in the kitchen and only in the kitchen because she doesn't want the whole house smelling of smoke.

When I walked in, my aunt was laid there in the floor, blood soaking around her and she was laid with her arms crossing across her chest and her eyes were wide open but she had a hole in her chest. I screamed a piercing scream as I slowly walked up to her. Straight away, Harry was behind me pulling me around my waist and pulling me back.

"Ellie come on we need to go" he shouted over my screams.

"No! What if my uncle's here? My mum?" I said as the tears fell like Niagara falls trying to escape his grasp on me. I managed to squirm out of him and run to the living room to find nothing

"Uncle Paul!" I shouted, my throat clogging up due to the tears, Harry was shortly behind me keeping his distance. I went up the stairs and before I could reach the top, Harry had ahold of my wrist.

"Ellie, no" he said going in front of me in vampire speed.

"Harry move, please" I said trying to stay strong but he didn't move

"Let me check first before you go just in case the criminal is still here" he stated before running off around the rooms in the blink of an eye. I walked into Uncle Paul's and Aunt Fay's room to find Paul in the same position on the bed with the same hole as aunt Fay did in her chest. I started to cry harder as I walked over to him. I placed my hand over hands and closed his eyes with my free hand. Harry came in and I could hear him gasp as approached behind me. He put his hands on my arms from behind me and looked at the body in front of us whilst he spoke.

"We need to leave, and I'm sorry but I can't take no for a answer" he gently said and I nodded in agreement. As we walked down the stairs, I saw my mum walk through the door and shout out to my now deceased Aunt and Uncle.

"Fay! Paul! Sorry I'm late it's just that I went to the shop to buy some - what are you two doing here?" She asked at the end noticing that we were there.

"We need to leave mum" I whispered and she looked confused

"What are you talking about honey?" She asked smiling and looked at Harry for reassurance. She noticed that I was crying and then clicked on

"Mum" I sobbed and straight away she clicked on what the situation was.

"Their not are they?" She whispered, her eyes welling up. I simply nodded before she ran off into the kitchen. I turned and hugged Harry tight and let out my tears as I heard her scream. I felt Harry's hand stroke my hair as my mum walked in the corridor covered in blood walking past us and up the stairs.

"I want to go now" I whispered in his chest as I let go of him.

"Okay, we'll wait outside for your mum to finish" he replied as we made our way out the house. We stood outside the gate looking towards the house when Harry put his arm around my waist and pulled me in closer towards him.

"I'm so sorry" he whispered as I leaned my head on him

"This is not your fault" I croaked, the tears still streaming as we heard my mum cry out again.

"I know but I hate to see you hurt" he said before he kissed the top of my head.

15 minutes later ... That how long it took before mum came out of the house. She was covered in blood as the police pulled up to the drive.

"I called them" she shouted ovet to us as they rushed past us and over to the house.

"Excuse me, are you with this women?" One of the officers asked coming up to us.

"Yes, I'm her daughter and this is my boyfriend" i stated as she looked Harry up and down checking him out. Seriously ... My aunt and Uncle had just been murdered and the police are checking out my boyfriend, aren't they professional.

"Well can i ask you a few questions?" She said getting out her notebook and pen

"Yeah sure" I said wiping away the tears

"Do you think its appropriate now?" Harry asked being the responsible one

"Well we just want to clarify a few things that we were told on the phone" she said looking stern at Harry for daring to speak up.

"Well could we do this tommorow because it's obvious she's in no state" he said. I look up at him and he didn't look to happy with the officer.

"Yes, could we have your address and your phone number so we can come round and arrange the meeting?" She said now looking at me, I looked towards her still shocked by what I witnessed and shivered out of it.

"Yeah its 24 Yea Street off Eddington road" I said before telling her my number

"Okay thank you, we will be in touch" she said shaking mine and Harry's hands before walking off into the crime scene. As we looked around to see where my mum went, I saw that she was approaching my direction also. I could feel Harry's gaze burning into the side of my head as we walked up to her.
