Chapter Twelve

“Harry, what is going on?”, I asked. We were sitting in the car now. “Look, Jade…”, he said. He waited a few seconds. “We are in danger… You are in danger..” What did he mean ‘we are in danger’? “Harry, what do you mean?”, I asked. I tried to stay as calm as possible. “Well.. Mike had.. ‘Friends’..”, Harry said, accenting the word ‘friends’. I looked at him, still not knowing what his point was. “Well, Mike’s in jail, so he can’t do anything to us, right? Why are we in danger then?” “Yes, Mike is in jail.. But his friends aren’t..” Now I was starting to get the point. “So you think they want to.. Take revenge on us..”, I said. “I don’t think they want to, I know they want to”, Harry said with an expressionless face. “How do you know that?”, I asked. “One of his friends, Nick, was looking at us at the restaurant…” Now everything was clear to me. “And that’s why we had to go”, Harry finished. I nodded. We arrived at Harry’s house. “You’re staying at my house, then I’m sure you’re safe”, Harry said as he got out. He opened the passenger door for me and I also got out. We walked towards the front door. “Harry?” “Yeah?” “What’s gonna happen now?” Harry turned around to face me. He took my hands in his. “I don’t know, but remember, I’m here for you, I’ll always protect you, I don’t care if I have to give up everything to be sure you’re safe…”, he said. I tried to smile at him, but I was too scared of what was going to happen. Harry pulled me close to his body, wrapped is arms around me and kissed the top of my head. “Everything will be alright”, he whispered. I nodded. After a few minutes he let go of me and pulled me inside the house. “Let’s watch a movie or something”, I suggested. I wanted to think about something else than everything what was going on. “Yeah, sure, I’ll get us some drinks and snacks”, Harry said, and he smiled at me. He walked into the kitchen to get the drinks and snacks. I kicked my shoes off and searched for a good DVD. I found one and put it into the DVD player. Harry came in with our drinks and we sat down on the couch. The movie started, but I didn’t really pay attention. I tought about what Harry had said half an hour ago. ‘We’re in danger.’ I couldn’t get the words out of my mind. What was going to happen? I didn’t know. Harry didn’t know. We just had to wait for something bad to happen.

I woke up in Harry’s bed. I looked next to me. Harry was still sleeping. He looked very cute. His curly hair was a mess and his chest was slowly going up and down. I smiled. I laid down again and rested my head on his chest, so that I could feel his heart beating. After a few minutes he woke up. I looked at him and smiled. “Goodmorning Harry” “Morning..”, he said in his raspy morning voice. “Come on, get up, I’ll make us some breakfast”, I said while getting up. “I don’t want to, I’m tired”, Harry said and he pouted his lips. I laughed. “You’ll have to, it’s already half past 12”, I said to him. He growled and grabbed his phone of the bedside table. “Hey, I have a new voice mail message”, he said. “It’s an unknown number..” He frowned. “Well, listen to it then”, I said. “I’ll put it on speaker”, he said and he tapped ‘speaker’. First we didn’t hear something, and Harry was about to hang up, but then we heared a low voice: ‘I know where you are, Harry... I know where you are, every second of the day. You’re gonna pay for letting the police catch Mike. I know everything about you and your girlfriend, so better be careful…’ Then there was a cracking sound and the person hang up. Harry and I both stared at the phone, scared of what we just heared. “What was that?”, I managed to whisper. “I- I don’t know… I didn’t recognise his voice or something, I don’t know who it was…”, Harry said while looking at me. I felt dizzy. ‘What is this?? Who was that??’, I thought. Harry and I didn’t say anything for a few other minutes, untill I broke the silence. “Harry?” No reaction. “Harry I’m scared”, I said. I felt Harry’s strong arms wrapping around me. “Shhh.. Everything is going to be alright.. I’m here”, he whispered in my ear. Then he began to hum, trying to calm me down. I nodded. I nuzzled my nose in his neck. Tears started to fall down my cheeks, leaving a wet mark on Harry’s grey shirt. I didn’t know what was going to happen next, but now I was sure Harry was right. We weren’t safe anymore…
