Henry and I have become extremely close over the past week. I think tomorrow I'm going to have him wake me up and see what he does.

"You're on a roll this is the seventh day you've been up on time. I'm proud of you." He smiled. Wait. Somethings off about him. "Thank you. Hopefully soon I won't have to do this anymore." He said walking out. Oh. I guess the past week meant nothing. "Yeah." I said holding back my tears. I can't believe it. How could I be so fucking stupid. It makes me not even want to go out my room today. Maybe I shouldn't. But that would get him in deep trouble. Then he'd take it out on me. Fuck it im going to do it.


Henry's pov

I can't keep falling for her.  She can't know what I'm like. I can't do that to her. I will literally break her heart.  Her and I can't be together. 

"001 where's 009?"  "In her room. She's awake I just went in there."  "She's got fifteen minutes to get out. Or both of y'all will be in trouble." Dr. Brenner said walking away.   "Goddamn it." I walk back to her room, open the door and she forces it shut.  "Goddamn it 009 let me in!"

"Get out!" She yelled.  What the Fuck did I do to her?  I forced her door open and walked in.  "Listen to me Julie." I pleaded.  "What? What the Fuck do you want?" She cried. "What did I do?"  "You acted like I meant nothing to you earlier!"  "Julie, listen, I promise you it hurts me more doing this than it hurts you. But I have to."  "You don't even know how I feel about you?!"  "Then tell me!" I pleaded. "Please for the love of god tell me. I'm tired of having mixed signals." I added.  "You really want to know!?"  "Yes!" 

"I've been here for a month and a half right? In that month and a half you have made me so goddamn happy and that's shocking considering we live in a literal lab.  The way you protect me, your jokes, the way you goddamn look at me. I literally dream about you. A week ago when I woke up late I was literally dreaming about you..."  She kept going.  I lost concentration.  Its not that I didn't want to listen. Its the fact that her yelling at me explaining how she truly feels about me made me fall even harder.

"I don't want you saying 'oh it hurts me so much more.' Because Henry I am literally falling for you." 

"Julie, the reason why I acted the way I did earlier is because I'm falling for you but you don't know who I am.  And I will literally break your heart once you see the real me."  "The real you? I don't want to hear that bullshit right now." She said.  "Oh my god you really don't understand do you?"  "That you're just like me? Oh my god you have the same powers I do. That's so heartbreaking."  She said sarcastically.  Fuck. She has such a bad attitude.

"You literally don't understand. The reason why Dr.Brenner has me as his right hand man is because he knows I'm the most dangerous one here. He knows I could kill anyone with ease. He knows I killed my mother, sister and attempted to kill my father because they wanted to send me here." The look on Julie's face wasn't terror, she wasn't scared. I wasn't sure what it was.  "Henry I don't care about your past. You don't think I have a past? Only certain people know that it was me who slammed that girl up against the cafeteria wall. No one knows what happened to my father." Her father? She has never mentioned her father at all.  It was honestly a relief to hear that she didn't care about my past. I'm really curious about her father though.  I cupped her face with my hands and put our foreheads together. "I don't mean to cut you off but we have got to go to breakfast before we get into trouble." I then kissed her forehead.  She looked at me with the purest look in her eyes. "Okay." She smiled.
