The New Girl

Chapter 6 - A Bad Fight

-Aurora Jones' Point of View-

I watched as Carter stumbled back, trying to compose himself. It looked as if he didn't expect to anger him enough to cause Harry to punch him in the face.

"Next time you lay a finger on my date, I won't hesitate to cause more damage on that pretty face of yours." Harry spat.

I've only met Harry earlier today, so seeing him like this was something I really didn't expect. I didn't think he would get this angry over someone making a pass on me.

Carter tackled Harry to the ground and began punching at his face. I could see Harry trying to get up, but I'm guessing Carter's weight was too much. Trying to lift his weight, while getting beaten, wasn't exactly easy.

I did what anyone else would do and ran towards Carter. I did my best to grab his arm, but his elbow came in contact with my face. I was stunned, causing me to fall back.

Just when I was regaining myself, a pair of arms wrapped themselves around me.

Mitchell.

"Aurora!" Harry called out, pushing Carter off of him.

I could feel a small cut on my cheek, probably from the buttons on Carter's tux. I didn't understand why there were buttons near his elbow, but that didn't matter. The pain on my cheek felt as if my whole face was thumping as an idiot held me in place.

When I turned back to look at Harry, I found myself watching him beat Carter while straddling him.

"Harry, that's enough!!" I shouted, struggling to break free from Mitchell's hold.

As soon as I said this, four boys came running out along with Sabrina, Jennifer, and another guy standing beside her.

"What the hell, Harry?!" Jennifer shouted.

Liam and Niall, quickly, grabbed Harry and pulled him off of Carter while Louis and the guy standing beside Jennifer held Carter back.

Sabrina looked at me and noticed Mitchell holding me, "Mitchell, you better let her go!" She shouted, walking towards us.

I noticed Carter break free and run away from the house with Mitchell following him.

Before Sabrina could make it towards me, Harry was standing in front of me. He was examining my face, as I scanned his.

He had been bleeding from his nose, along from where Carter's knuckles had busted his lip. A small scratch on his left eyebrow was visible, along with a few shades of pink forming on his face.

I couldn't help but gawk at how horrible he looked. The light revealing bruises forming around his right eye and cheek made my stomach turn.

This was my fault.

  ...I caused this, it's my fault Harry's beautiful face looks like this. 

I placed my hand on his cheek, "H-Harry..." Was all I could say to the beaten boy standing in front of me.

He sighed and grabbed my hand in his, "Come on." He said, before pulling me towards his car.

******

The car ride was quiet, as Harry drove me home. I wasn't sure if he was taking me home or what, but I was too afraid to ask. I wasn't sure if he had already calmed himself down from what happened and the thick air surrounding us wasn't exactly helping the situation.

Harry's car came to a, sudden, stop in front of a random house. I couldn't tell if it was his or not, but Harry turning to face me made me forget about the house.

"What the hell were you thinking?!" He shouted, before using the sleeve of his tux to wipe the blood off his face.

Well, I did not expect him to snap at me like that... this isn't good.

I cocked a brow, confused about his outburst, "What do you mean?"

He scoffed, "Don't play dumb, Aurora, you know exactly what I mean! Why the hell would you get involved with those two?!" Harry snapped.

That's the second time Harry calls me by my name. First it was when Carter hit me with his elbow, which kinda surprised me. I was a bit happy, I liked how he said my name-

I shook those thoughts out of my head. I should've seen this coming. I may not understand the reason why those twins were trying to scare me, but Harry sure sounds like he does.

"They were harassing a girl, I couldn't just let them do what they want. I had to help her!" I shouted back.

Harry shook his head, "No, you should've gotten someone else to help you! You're a girl! Did you think they wouldn't hold you like they held that girl?!" He snapped.

I couldn't believe what he was saying, just because I'm a girl that doesn't mean I shouldn't be helping another girl in need!

"It doesn't matter if I'm a boy or girl! She needed help, I was there, and I had to do something to help her!" I snapped.

Harry slammed his fists on the steering wheel, making me jump, "I don't know how shit worked back in Texas for you, but here you don't mess with anyone ...especially those two!" He snapped.

I kept my head down, waiting for his next outburst to be released.

I wasn't sure if Harry noticed how nervous I was, or if he had finally come to his senses, but he sighed and placed a hand on my cheek. "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to yell at you like that. It's just... those guys are bad news, Aurora. We're in deep shit, now." He said before grabbing a tissues from a bag and carefully wiping my cheek.

I didn't expect any of this behavior from Harry. He did seem like the type to get into fights, just not fights that involved a girl. I also didn't expect him to be so... so nice to me. He's cleaning my cut, when he should be doing that to his own face. The blood had already dried or been wiped away with his sleeve, but he was practically dripping with blood before.

I sighed and grabbed the tissue from his hand, "Well, you can't take me home looking like that. Do you think we can go to your place to get you cleaned up?" I asked.

Harry's stern glare turned into a cheeky grin, "Wow. Even after a fight, you still want to sleep with me? I'm honored, Miss Jones." He winked.

There's the Harry I sort've know, "Shut up, you idiot. Let's go get you cleaned up." I chuckled, making it pretty clear I wasn't planning on sleeping with him.

I had no idea what was so bad about those twins and, actually, I'm pretty nervous to find out the real reason why I should be worried about them.

As worrisome as knowing the truth was, I'd probably have to hold off on it. From how angry Harry was before, I don't think he'd want to tell me what's so bad about the twins anytime soon.
