The Dark Night

Part - 6

Anthony offers to drop me home in his car I deny it, but it's now dark outside and it appears to be raining. "I can drop you home." he says and I agree. Anthony opens the passenger door for me and then goes to the driver seat.

I look outside the window why tears began to roll down my cheek and fall to my hand. "Do you love him?" Anthony asked me. "Yes, I love Andrew." I reply. Anthony gives me a reassuring look with a gentle smile. 

I reach home and go straight to my room ignoring my mom and dad as they ask "How did the day go?" I lay my body in the bed and instantly fall asleep.

Anthony's POV

After dropping Harper home, I find myself smiling why am I smiling? I look at at my arms nd bring it close to my nose it smells just like her.

The next day, I had to take care of some business as someone found out about our group so me along with some other boys decided to kill Bradon. He used be a good friend of mine but, he leaked our information to our enemies of more amount of money.

Harper's POV

"The next day, I approach Ashley and ask her, "How did you get Andrew's number?" She responds, "Oh, I took it from your phone." I glare at her furiously, "Then why did you tell Andrew that I gave it to you?" Ashley gives me a mischievous look and says, "Chill baby girl, there's nothing to worry about until and unless you want me to tell Andrew everything." I stare into Ashley's eyes and say, "I now get the reason why you broke up with Noah, you want Andrew because I want him." Ashley kisses me on the cheek and says "Don't need to overthink Harper, Andrew will be mine." Saying that she leaves.

Since this would be my final visit to Andrew's house, I grab Anthony's clothes and press the doorbell. Anthony opens the door and it looks like he had been to gym because he is full of sweat. This time, he does not welcome me and proceeds to leave. "Anthony?" I call his name, and he glances back. "Yes Miss Elsher?" I notice his eyes are red, he has a minor cut on his mouth, and he's holding a metal rod. "I brought you your clothes." He tosses the rod and takes his clothes. "Is Andrew home?" I ask him. "Yes, he is upstairs in his room." he says giving me a little smile.

I go upstairs and Andrew is there laying down in his bed and as soon as he see me he gets up and greets me with a smile. "Did you complete the essay?" I ask him. "Yes, I completed it." he replies.

I sit down and he comes to sit beside me, we began to do our research. I get up to take my phone from the table and Andrew hugs me from behind plants his lip on my neck, and begins to kiss me there. I turn around and he is still hugging me, he then slowly takes off my jacket. He lips and moving upwards which reaches my jaw, then my cheek and suddently Andrew's phone starts to ring he steps back to check, and sure enough, it's Ashley again but this times he hangs the phone and approaches me. 

I then realise what Ashley told me and I pull back. Andrew looks at me and gives me a why expression. "I-I'm hungry and thirsty, can you bring me something from the store?" I tell him, I could've killed him but I love him that's why I can't. Andrew nods, takes his jacket and leaves.

Just then I hear a loud noise comming, I rush downstairs and its Anthony, he's hurt.He is gushing blood everywhere, so I take hold of him and place him on the couch. I search for the first-aid kit and start rubbing all the blood. He is breathing heavily as he asks me, "Aren't you scared of blood?" I reply to him, "No, but what happened." He takes off his shirt and there's deep wounds in his arm, chest, stomach. "You won't understand Miss Elsher." he says

I clean all the blood, apply the medicine and bandage him, "Oh my gosh, you're so beautiful you can just take my breath away Miss Elsher." says that he falls asleep on the couch. "Are you high Anthony?" I ask him as if he would hear me.

I leave before Andrew arrives.
