Dangerous Love

Chapter Seven - We Have To Protect Her

*Ashley'sPOV*

I sighed as I walked out of my class, I looked around to see if Harry was around but sadly he wasn't.

I got tired of waiting and I decided to walk towards my locker.

"Hey Ashley." smiled George.

I jumped up at the sound of his voice, ever since the incident with Matt I was scared of everything and I hated it. I hate feeling like this.

"Ashley, it's alright. It's me, George." He said looking concerned.

"Sorry George, it's just. I don't know, I'm scared he'll come back." I sighed as I put some books in my locker.

"I know you're scared, but you can't let them see that. If they see that you're scared they'll get you easily." He explained in a soothing tone.

"I'll try to be brave." I sighed closing my locker.

"Want me to walk you home?" He asked with a concerned look.

"No, don't you have a track meet?" I asked.

"Yeah, but I can-

"No George, go." I smiled.

It's these things that George does for me that always let me know he's here for me and always will be. I'm always happy he'd put anything on hold for me. As brotherly and nice that is, I just can't let him do it. One, mom and dad would think we're dating. Two he'd get in trouble with the couch and three, I don't want him to think I'm more important than everything else he does.

"Alright, be careful." He said hugging me before walking away.

I wonder where Harry's at...

*Harry'sPOV*

"Harry, we can't just leave school whenever you want to." scolded Liam.

"I wanted to leave because I wanted to come up with a plan to get back at Bennett." I said calmly.

The boys and I left school after lunch, I wanted to come up with a plan to make sure that bastard Gonzales, and his boys, stay away from Ashley.

"I don't want her to get hurt, but what are we suppose to do about Gonzales. You know exactly how he is and will not stop until he has you begging on your knees." Liam snapped, rolling his eyes.

I couldn't believe he was being this negative, he's always the one to be on top and keep us from giving up.

"What? You don't care enough about her, or what?!" I asked angrily.

When Liam didn't care too much about the situation, his negative side would come out. I didn't understand why, but that's just how he is.

"It's not that I don't care about her, its the fact that she's gonna keep you unfocused." sighed Liam.

"Liam, she isn't gonna keep me unfocused. She is-

"Just a girl and you'll meet someone else." He finished off for me, but that wasn't what I was gonna say.

"No it's diffrent-

"Harry, it's for her safety." said Niall.

"I want her safe, but- .....I-I need some air!!" I shouted frustrated and walking outside.

I breathed in the fresh air outside and sighed.

What if Liam was right? What if I had to let go of Ashley? I mean I've been with tons of girls before, but none of them were like Ashley.

Not only can I actually be calm and myself with her, she's just so different from the other girls I've been with. She's so innocent and sweet, the other girls were basically horny sluts that were just looking for another fuck.

I just don't know if I'll be able to let her go so easily, it'll be really hard for me to just forget about her and really hard for her to understand why.

"You really like her, don't you." sighed Louis.

Louis and I are really close with each other and we help each other a lot with everything, I can trust Louis with a lot of things.

I continued to stare down at the balcony and nodded, "Yeah, I really do. I'm positive she's not like the others. Ashley is different." I said with a sad expression.

Just the thought about having to forget about Ashley bothers me, I really care about her and like her. How am I suppose to forget her? She's beautiful and nice to everyone. Ashley really is different from other girls, I just can't put my finger on what's so great about her.

"Harry, if you really like this girl you're going to have to protect her more than anything. With the kinda life style you have, she can easily get hurt or taken away by any enemy gang." Louis explained.

"I know and I don't want any of that to happen, Ashley doesn't even know why Bennett did that to her. She has no idea she's in danger. Which is why we have to do something about it, or she's gonna get hurt sooner or later." I sighed.

I hated thinking like this, but I'm pretty sure John and his boys are going to try to get Ashley. Not because they like her or know her, but because they suddenly know she's apart of my life now and if they hurt her...they'll have me done.

Just thinking about John touching Ashley got me mad, but if they hurt her or try to...lets just say all hell would brake loose.

"Well then let's go talk to Liam." said Louis walking inside as I trailed behind him.

I was always thankful for Louis' understanding. He knew when one of us needs help with something and he was always willing to help, no questions asked.

"Liam I think we should help Harry with this." Louis said as we both walked inside.

"Harry why do you want to help this girl, it's not like she's done anything for you." said Liam in a stern tone.

"Because I don't want her to get hurt!" I shouted.

"And why do you, all of a sudden, care so much about her?!" shouted Liam walking closer to me.

How can he not understand what I'm trying to say here? I've been saying all this time that I like her and I want her to be safe, so what's so hard for Liam to understand?

"Why did we protect Danielle, huh? Why did we protect her four fucken months?" I shouted.

Liam stayed quiet and looked at the ground, he finally got the message as to why I want to protect Ashley and why they had to help me.

"Well what are we suppose to do about Gonzales, we don't know where he is or what he's planning. How are we suppose to stop John?" said Zayn running his hands through his hair.

"We talk to him. Malik, set up a time and date some time this week." I ordered grabbing my keys and my jacket.

"Alright." said Zayn getting up and walking towards the kitchen holding his phone to his ear.

"Where are you off to?" asked Niall.

"I'm gonna make sure my girl got home safe." I said as I walked out the door.
