"Soph," I say tapping her leg while I stare at my phone. She hums looking out the window as our uber driver takes us back to my house. I start tapping her leg harder and she quickly turns to look at me.

Something is wrong.

Somethings wrong with Harry.

She searches my face and I show her all of the texts Harry just sent me.

From: Bibble
I'm so sorry Margot...

I promise you I had no idea

Owen is gone and I didn't even know

I don't know what to do

I am going to our safe place.

I need answers and I need to apologize.

I need to tell you everything Cher.

All within minutes of each other. "He needs me-" I say and she swallows before nodding.

"Where is he?" She asks and I stare frantically. Going to our safe place. Starlight hasn't been open late since Dave got sick. He wouldn't be going there. "I have his location," I gasp as I pull up life 360.

"You still have his location?" She asks confusedly and I nod. Zooming into his location, he's close to us. He's in the woods. He's at the clubhouse. "Clubhouse," I breathe out and Sophia looks where we are at.

"Sir?" Sophia asks, trying to get our driver's attention. He looks in the rear view mirror quickly, "um there is a slight change in plans, can you drop my friend off at the woods? I'll still be dropped off at the main location." He nods and turns right at the light instead of left.

He parks and I thank him and rush out of the car. "Thank you Soph I will venmo you- I gotta go," I say rushed and she nods.

"Go. He needs you," She says with a soft sad smile. I nod and shut the door. Running to the path, it's pitch black and it's almost three o'clock in the morning. Turning the flashlight on my phone, I walk the path.

He's alone and in the dark.

Panicking, feeling the world close in on him.

"Harry?" I yell as I pick up my pace. Checking life 360 to make sure he's still here. "H-Harry," I yell again and my voice cracks.

Fuck he's not answering but he's still here.

I make it to the tree house and I hear faint sniffling. Climbing up the ladder I see him sitting in the far corner. "Harry," I breathe and walk into the tree house. Falling to my knees I'm in front of him and he looks up at me.

Tears streaming down his face, all the pain, heartbreak, and sadness coming to the surface. Breaking my heart in the process.

Although I am hurt by everything that has happened and angry that he left me, seeing him broken breaks me. We always have been to souls connected. If one of us is upset, the other one is upset too.

Do I deserve answers? Do I deserve an apology? Yes. Do we need to actually talk? Yes.

But, he just found out about his best friend dying.

"Baby, deep breath for me okay?" I say rubbing his legs and he frantically nods. "Let's do this together. Deep breath in." I say and we both breathe in. I count to 10 on my fingers. Exhaling together. After a few more times I put my hand on his heart. I feel it slowing down under my touch. Which means I am doing my job.
