Chapter 3

"Shit!"

I jumped out from bed. It was 2:00am I had half an hour till I was due to start work and I couldn't get fired, I had nothing left except from that job and Harry, I guess. I rushed to grab my jacket running out the door. I skipped into the living room trying to search for the for the door key .He was still up just staring at the clear tv.

"Harry?"

I questioned. His eyes flashed closed to reveal a tear falling down his cheek. His head spun to meet my glaze. The big hands wiping away the water that still trailed down his face.

"Um Alice What are you doing up?" He stood up walking over to me.

"I have work"

My answer was blunt but I was in a rush and didn't feel like a one to one conversation at the moment. He picked up the keys from the table that sat in the middle of the room.

"Need Aa ride?" His question repeated in my mind, honestly I needed one but knowing Harry hadn't slept made me think that it might be a bit unsafe

"No,it's fine I'll walk" He looked back at me.

"No! You can't walk alone at this time" His eyes contact grew stronger as they stare into mine. I wasn't in the mood to argue.

"Harry you're not my boyfriend you don't have control over me!" I growled back. His forehead began to get creases appear, Harry was beginning to get aggravated. I storm out of the apartment. His grip catching my wrist on the way out.

"Your not going out in the dark at this time" His fury grew strong as pulled me back by my wrist. The tension was growing as he continued to pressure on the grip.

"Harry let go of me!" I screamed. His eyes almost pressing against mine. The heavy breathing that was passed between us gave me mixed emotions. At that point I wanted to kiss him yet also wanted to slap him right across the jaw. Still unsure how I felt about Harry I decided to do none.

"Fine" I Insisted."I'll let you drive me"He let go of my arm and strolled over to the door unlocking it with the key.

He dropped me off out side the club he un-buckled his seat belt and stood out from the car. I joined him by jumping out.

"You can go now" I said in a rush as I began to walk down the road. His arm slightly slipped around my waist making my actions go weak. What was it with him and my feelings, one moment I hate him the next I just can't get rid of him.

"What are you doing?"I asked.

"Coming with you" I felt worried. Harry knew I was a stripper at a club and the thought of him seeing me strip again, made me question his thoughts about me. It was becoming more obvious in my facial expressions that I was worried.

"Alice don't worry I'm only going to be here so I can drive you back. I mean what else is there for me to do?" He giggled as his strong grip lead me towards the club.

I made my way around the back as Harry went over to order a drink. Luckily I was a bit early.

"ALICE!" I heard her screeching voice from in front of me. Sprinting for a hug I ran up to her to.

"Ella!" We hugged before walking back to the changing rooms.

"So who's your new boyfriend?" She asked.

"Who,Harry?" I questioned back. She looked at me as if I was meant to read her mind.

"Yes silly ,who else?!" Her reply was full of so much excitement.

I looked in the huge mirror that hung on the wall, my reflection defeating me. Harry wouldn't like someone like me,Iwas just his friend and knowing I was a stripper he probably didn't what to know me as a person. Maybe he was using me?
