Oh and on the side is how Emily looks! --------->

Emily's POV:

"What happened Emily?", my coach asked as he ran to my side. "Uh um why is Jason here?" I asked trying to change the subject. "I am here because I heard you are in the hospital! Just because we broke up doesn't mean I don't care about you Emily!" Jason said while grabbing me hand. I pulled my hand away from his grasp. I couldn't stand him. "Emily stop trying to change the subject! Why are you in a hospital?" He asked concerned. "Um  I...... Well......" I stuttered while looking at Harry.

"Well, Emily left her phone in  my car so I decided to return it to her. I knocked on the door and nobody responded, so I shook the door handle to find that the door was unlocked. When I walked inside I found Emily lying on the floor unconscious. So I took her to the hospital and found out she has three broken ribs. Harry said while looking at the ground. "Well thank you for bringing her to the hospital um uh.. I don't believe I caught your name." my coach responded. "Harry.", Harry said while holding his hand out. "Wait! Your Harry Styles?!?" Jason said shocked. "Yep", Harry said. "How the hell do you know Harry Styles?", Jason asked confused. "He's my neighbor.", I responded innocently. "Wait, what?" Jason said completly confused.

'Where is your mother Emily? Should I call her?" my coach asked ignoring Jason's strange behavior. "She wouldn't pick up if you called." I gently whispered. "What did you say Emily? Are you speaking English?" my coach asked annoyed. Every time I spoke in a low voice he would always ask me that. I looked back at my coach, a confused Jason, a really confused Simon, and Harry. My lip started trembling. Just as tears started to fill my eyes Harry hopped back up on the hospital bed and started comforting me. I don't know what it is about Harry, but he was so soothing.

"Are you seriously crying over a question?", Jason asked while rolling his eyes. "Clearly you should not ask questions if you don't know the story behind someone." Harry growled at Jason. "Alright whats going on?" my coach asked once more. "My mom's in jail.", I half whispered. "How did that happen?" my coach asked suspiciously.  "10 years of abusing your child could be a factor.", I said quietly. Everyone in the room was shocked! Even Harry. "10 years?", Harry croaked. I just nodded my head.  "I am so sorry Emily!" my coach said while looking at the ground. "It's okay that kinda stuff happens all the time." I said. "But it shouldn't.", Harry said while shaking his head. "Well how long are you off the ice Emily?" my coach asked while pointing to my ribs. "3 months." I said before bursting into tears. "I CAN'T AFFORD TO TAKE THREE MONTHS OFF. I WILL BE IN TERRIBLE SHAPE WHEN I COME BACK. THIS IS HORRIBLE! I AM SO SORRY." I cried into Harry's shoulder. "Emily it's fine you didn't chose to be injured. We can just pray that you recover as fast as possible." my coach said while rubbing my shoulder.

"Wait! Where am I going to live?" I asked realising that I am only 16 and it is illegal to live by myself. "You can live with us Emily. I mean Jason already live with us since his parents still work and live in America." my coach offered. There was no way in hell I would sleep under the same roof as Jason. After what he did to me, I will never trust him ever again. "Or you can live with my mom?" Harry suggested. My eyes lit up. "Really?" I asked full of excitement. "Of course! Your like her second daughter!", Harry said while chuckling at my response. "I think it would be better for you to stay with me." my coach pleaded. "Mr. Johnson, Mrs. Styles is like the mother I have never had. They live right next door, it couldn't get any better! Please let me move in with them!" I pleaded. "Emily, I care about you and I don't know this Harry kid well. Let me get to know him then you can maybe stay with his mother. For now you are going to stay with me, Mrs. Johnson, and Jason." he said while staring at me with sympathy. 

I let out a deep sigh. "I'm only doing this to protect you Emily! I want to make sure you are protected." my coach said. "Yeah, yeah I know." I responded annoyed. How in the world was I going to live under the same roof as Jason? May the Lord help me!

"We will be back tomorrow! When you are released from the hospital! Sleep well!", my coach called as he left the room. I watched as Jason turned around and walked back towards me. "When I'm done with you, you will never want to leave. I will get you back and you will be mine." Jason whispered in my ear before kissing my forehead. I gulped as Jason left the room. Now I have to fear another person.

"What did he say to you Emily?" Harry asked concerned. "Nothing, just that he is happy that I'm okay.", I lied. "Your lying!" Harry said while looking down. "No I'm not!" I said defending myself. Harry was about to argue when a voice interrupted us. "What is going on here?", Simon asked. I almost forgot he was still in the room.

"Uncle Simon, this is my best friend Emily! She is also my mom's neighbor. I walked into her house and found her unconscious, which led me to taking her here." Harry said briefly. "OK, so that explains why your here and the articles about the mystery girl." Simon said while tapping his foot. "Mystery girl?", I asked confused. "Paps caught a photo of Harry carrying you into the hospital.", Simon responded answering my question. I shut my eyes before taking another deep breath. Now everyone was going to know I was in the hospital. Great, I thought. "Hey it's okay! Everything is going to be fine!", Harry cooed. I just nodded my head. I knew it wouldn't be okay. My mom may be in jail, but I have a new problem to deal with. That problem is Jason....

"Well now that I have this whole situation cleared up I better go. It was lovely meeting you Emily and I hope to see you again. I hope you recover as soon as possible. See you later Harry." Simon said giving me a slight smile. "Thanks!" I responded. "Bye Uncle Simon!" Harry cheered.

"If you want to go home you can. I don't want to keep you isolated in a hospital." I said feeling guilty that Harry has practicaly spent 3 days in a hospital with me. "No it's fine! I wanna spend time with my best friend. Especially after I know what you have endured these past years.", Harry said with a hint of sadness. "Thanks Harry! It really means a lot to me! You have no idea.", I said while getting lost in his beautiful emerald eyes. "I'd do anything to see you smile!", Harry said staring back into my eyes.

Harry's POV:

Every time I looked at her I felt happy. There was something about her that made me want more. I could definitely understand where her coach was coming from, but I wish he would have let her stay with my mother. That way I could check on her more often and make sure she is okay. I don't trust that Jason kid. I know he whispered something in her ear to hurt her. I will kill that kid if he hurts her. Emily is such a special person.  I am still in complete shock from hearing and witnessing her mothers abuse towards her. It was one of the worst things I have ever witnessed in my life. It's one thing to hear about stories like that, but it's another thing to witness them. It hits you so much harder, especially if it happens to someone you love. Not only was she abused but I also had to find out that she abuses her self through eating disorders from the doctor. I want to just confront her, but she is at such a fragile state. If I would mention it I am afraid she will have a panic attack. I think I will just pay attention to her eating habits and help her break free of this horrible disorder. She was so perfect. Why would she ever starve herself or purge? I have learned two major secrets, but there is still a secret she is keeping from me. Something that makes her upset. Something that triggers her eating disorders. I will find out her deep dark secret. On way or another.
