New Beginnings

Chapter 22

Harry's P.O.V

Last night I got next to no sleep at all. All I could do was start to think about what has been happening and how my life has become more chaotic since I met Philippa. But the thing is even with everything that has gone on it makes me want to be with her even more because I am able to protect and I can try and keep her safe. I know I would never be able to let her go, I just couldn't let her leave and know fully well that she will most likely go back to him due to him still sending me threats. He's made it clear from the first day he sent me one that he will do anything to get her back. But I won't let it happen. Looking down I see Philippa looking for once peaceful. She hasn't been sleeping properly either. She won't admit it often but I know she is scared. Earlier I've never been so scared, but talking to Paul I agree that she must come on tour with us.

Getting up I look at my phone 7:30am it's way too early to wake Philippa. Walking into the bathroom, I grab a quick shower. Climbing out of the shower. I walk back into our room and see she is still sound a asleep. Quickly I grab a pair of boxers and my jeans from where I got them out last night. Grabbing a tshirt from the wardrobe. I notice it's early 8am better wake her up.

Walking over to Philippa's side of the bed I bend down gently rock her a little.

"Philippa babe you need to get up." She starts to stir, her eyelids flutter open.

"What time is it?"

"A little after 8, come on I'll help you get dressed so we can leave."

Philippa's P.O.V

Waking up I see Harry knelt next to me.

"Can you pick me an outfit please." I really don't have to energy today to try and find an outfit. I just want to loon presentable when I have to tell my work that I got the shit beaten out of me and I ant return to work for a few months.

"Yeah course babe, I'll get something comfy for you to wear."

"Please but make sure I look presentable."

--------------------------------------

We are finally on our way to work and to say I'm nervous is an understatement. I have to walk ito my work and tell them I have to leave for a while. I feel so embarrassed right now. Like I couldn't even stop him. My life is such a mess.

I'm brought back to reality when I feel Harry squeeze my jand.

"I know what your thinking and they won't judge you. They don't have to know all the details."

"Harry is right we only have to tell them that you have had an accident and you have to recover in your own time." Paul looks at us in the rear view mirror.

"The only person I've really spoken to about anything is Sarah. I'll talk to her later or something."

"We are here. I'll drop you off here and I'll go park up and join you."

Harry climbs out the car. Walks round to my side to help me out and onto my crutches. These things are stupid I hate them. Walking into the school I only see a few students coming in late. I grab my fob out of my handbag and buzz Harry and I in.

"Morning Jo. I'm just going to sign Harry and Paul in he should be here in a sec."

"That's ok, I'll nip and tell Mrs Holmes that you're here. You remember how to buzz people?"

"Thanks and yes I do." As she leaves the room. Paul walks into reception. Pressing the buzzer he walks through the door ad we meet in the corridor.

"Philippa nice to see you back." We turn to see Sandi walking down to meet us.

"Hi Sandi."

"Right come into my office so we can talk."
