I let out a relieved sigh as I flopped down on my bed. The jet ride home had been long and exhausting and all I wanted was to be alone for a while to relax so I had made the boys leave after they dropped me off.

I threw my only bag onto the floor of my closet and found a pair of pyjama shorts and one of Harry's old hoodies from before he went on the xfactor. I grabbed the pile of clothes and stepped into my ensuite bathroom.

I ran a hot bubble bath, complete with a few scented candles and plugged my ipod into the dock, pressing shuffle on my mellow playlist. I shut my eyes as I let the hot water relax all my tensed muscles.

The water eventually got too cold to be considered comfortable and I got out, wrapping a fluffy towel around my body, tucking it under my arms. My hair was still in it's messy bun, not being touched by the soapy water so I fixed it into a French braid.

I changed into the clothes I had picked out earlier and sauntered back into my room. The only light in my room came from the moonlight that was shining through the window and my alarm clock that read 10:07 pm.

I tucked myself under the covers and felt the lonlieness and darkness begin to cloud my mind with awful thoughts and memories. I wasn't able to close my eyes without Dustin or Matt's face scaring me awake.

I had talked to the doctor before I left the hospital about the connection my unconscious mind that made me fear Harry and he said it could be something from my past that I haven't moved on from yet. It made sense once I began to think about it. I used to be scared of Harry; the reckless flirt that was in my brothers gang. But the same things that made me fall for Harry helped me to overcome this. He was my protector, my other half, my best friend and the only one I could ever picture myself truly happy with.

The numbers on the clock continued to change as Harry flooded my mind, once again saving me from the darker side of my mind,

10:39 pm . . . . . 11:21 pm . . . . . 11:57 pm . . . . . 12:18 pm

And I finally realized that the only way I was going to get through this was if I had him. But everything was going to be different now. One day I will have to tell him what Dustin and Matt did to me and I can only hope that he wont leave me. I don't know if I ready to go through that yet though.

I tossed and turned in bed for another twenty minutes before I finally gave up and walked into the kitchen. My slippers padded against the ground as I made my way over to the fridge. I poured myself a glass of juice and sat down in the living room. I found my iphone on the coffee table and decided to see if Harry was still awake.

I didn't want to wake him up if he was sleeping so instead of calling him, I sent him a quick text. With in a minute Harry's name flashed across my screen and I answered.

"Did I wake you up?" I asked concerned. "No, I can't sleep. What are you doing awake?"

"I cant sleep either."

"Want some company?"

"If it's not too much to ask."

"I'm already on my way."

"Okay, drive safe. Love you."

"Love you too Sam."

I hung up and sat quietly, sipping on my juice as I waited for Harry. Time seemed infinite whenever I was with him and that what I craved right now. I felt my heart rate pick up when I heard a knock on the door.

Setting my drink down, I scurried over, unlocking the door and pulling it open. A smile stretched across my face as Harry stepped in and shut the door behind him. He leaned against the back of the door and pulled me towards him by my waist. His arms wrapped around me, making my body press up against his and my cheek rest on his toned chest.

"I wish I could hold you like this forever." Harry whispered into my hair, placing gentle kisses on my head.

I felt a blush begin to spread across my cheeks and I tilted my head up to look at him. I met his glowing green eyes and felt myself get stuck in a trance. He let go of my waist giving me enough space between us to slide my hands up his chest and around his neck. His left hand rested on the small of my back while the other reached up to stroke my cheek.

"You're beautiful." He whispered causing butterflies to erupt in my stomach.

Before I had the chance to reply, he cupped my face with both of his hands and closed the gap between us, placing a tender kiss to my lips. As our lips moved in sync, he made no attempt to deepen the kiss but I was fine with that. The kiss held emotions that seemed to overwhelm my mind and make me completely forget about everything except for Harry and what we were sharing right now.

Love.

Because right now, love was all I wanted. To be in the arms of the one I had fallen for. He had said he would catch me when I fell and he stayed true to his word. He may have fumbled and caused me to slip away a couple time but he never let go. And I would never let go either.

Deep chapter! Just think of not reading this one! How could Wattpad do this? It erased two of the most important chapters of this book. Ugh!
