*Harry's P.o.V*

I let Max go in the soulless bedroom first while I shut the door behind us and lock it. When I turn around to look at Max, she's staring at the knob than to me with confusion.

"Don't want no one to ruin our moment now do we?" I ask her with a gentle smile and she returns it with a nod. When I go near her, she backs away and sits on the bed while staring intently into my eyes.

I put my hands on the bed besides her and lean in to kiss her. When I look at her eyes before I do, her eyes are already closed. I kiss her cheek and she sighs so I forcefully kiss her lips. As the kiss gets deeper, I cradle the back of her head and gently lay her down so I'm on top of her while our lips are locked.

I knew she was hurt earlier by my lie on why I almost kissed her but I was really just testing my boundaries if she wanted to or not. She obviously wanted to so that's why we're in a heated kiss now. Our emotions are unknown for each other but I knew there was something from the first time we met. Maybe we can do second base.

I start to life up her dirty shirt but she stops me and sits up. She tucks her hair behind her ears and crosses her arms in embarrassment.

"I understand," I assure her and she looks at me with suspicion so I get up from the bed and raise my hands up in defense. "I won't do anything without your permission."

"Thank you," she says quietly and looks down with a sniffle.

"What's wrong?" I ask her while I kneel back on the bed in front of her.

"Don't you hate me now?" She asks shyly while still looking down. When I raise her chin up so she looks in my eyes, a tear falls down and hits my index finger.

"Why on Earth would I hate you just now? Because you didn't want to go further?" I ask her while I let go of her and she nods so I sigh. "What makes you think that?"

"Well, when I was younger I was always told that."

"Told what?" I know she doesn't want to tell me.

"That if a guy comes onto you, he'll hate you forever if you reject him." She shrugs while wiping her tears away. I am just in shock.

"No, that's stupid and ridiculous. A man would respect your decision." I tell her the obvious truth and she gives me a small smile. It finally hit me after going over what she said. "Did a guy ever do something to you?" I ask her and she covers her face and cries.

"Yes," she mumbles and my mouth drops.

"You probably don't want to tell, do you?" I ask her and she uncovers her face.

"It's fine. It feels better to get stuff off your chest." She gives a tiny laugh while she wipes her face. "Here goes nothing." She says with a sigh and relaxes herself.

*Max's P.o.V*

"Lilly and I were in our second foster home and we were playing tag inside the house since it was thunder storming really bad outside. Our caretakers had fancy, glass artifacts throughout their house and Lilly bumped into one when she was turning a corner causing it to break and shatter. The man caretaker came rushing and was beyond mad that his precious artifact was broken so he grabbed Lilly to whip her but I didn't want her to get punished so I told him to take me instead and do anything to me. Long story short, he took "anything" literally so he ya know." Harry gives me a confused look and I roll my eyes because I do not want to say the words. "I was molested." I say and Harry gasps.

"I'm so sorry," Harry apologises which is unnecessary.

"The funny part is that he actually treated us well until then," I take in a deep breath and exhale.

"That's terrible," Harry says while shaking his head in disappointment.

"Most, if not all, of our foster homes was like that. Except for the most recent one but lucky us this had to happen." I say shaking my hands around in the air and Harry laughs so I laugh along with him.

"So, you're a good kisser." Harry tells me with a wink so I cover my face in embarrassment and fall back onto the bed.

"Stop embarrassing me will ya?" I scold him while I sit back up. I look out the window and the sun is setting.

"We better go back downstairs before anyone suspects anything," Harry winks at me again and I slap his arm to make him stop.

"You're right though," I tell him while getting up from the bed. "I'm in so need of a shower. I feel so disgusting with all this dried mud on me." I crinkle me nose in disgust as I look in the stand up mirror.

"Dirty or not, you're still beautiful." Harry says while smiling so I roll my eyes in disbelief and open up the door. I lightly scream and jump in shock.

"What are you guys doing up here?" I ask Kay, Aero, Kip, Chip, Lilly, and Tally who has a humongous smile on her face. Harry shows up behind me and asks the same.

"Why is your face and lips all red?" Tally asks and I go through everyone all embarrassed. I hear Harry tell them that we were just talking and Kay isn't convinced. Harry also asked them how much they heard but according to Lilly, just when I was looking in the mirror so I'm relieved at that.

"I'm still curious as to why the family killed themselves when they have all these supplies." I say to Harry as we're filling a bag up with water bottles.

We've been here for five days and the supplies are running low already. We're packing up and taking the rest of the supplies that we can carry with us because who knows how far away the next supplies are. Luckily there was some burn creme and wraps in one of the bathrooms so I was able to change and I won't be running out anytime soon.

"Maybe they knew that they wouldn't survive and others, like us, could." Harry answers me with a shrug. I put the last water bottle in the bag and zip it up.

"Okay, that's all the water than we can fit in here." I lift up the bag with a huff because of how heavy it is.

"Looks like we need to find a roller bag for miss puny here." Harry jokingly says while cracking up.

"Ha ha so funny," I say with an eye roll. I see and hear Lilly running in here so Harry and I give her a confused look because what can be an emergency?

"It's Aero and Tally."
