New Girl

Chapter 9

(BELLA'S POV)

Everyone starts to leave but Harry just stands there. "No."

" Harry get out now."I demand.

"No not till you tell me why." He says looking deep into my eyes.

"Tell you what?" Ryan asks. By now i'm standing up with my arms behind my back. Harry takes my arm from behind my back my back and holds it out. I try to pull away but he just tightens his grip on me.

"This." He growls. All the boys look at my wrist and their jaws drop instantly. I can feel tears well up in my eyes and this time I don't hold them back. I feel the first of many tears roll down my cheek. I try to pull away from Harry again but his grip gets even tighter. I wince at the pain. He is now cutting the circulation off.

"Harry let go of her. Your hurting her and you've already made her cry." Ryan says. Harry looks over at me and instantly lets go of my wrist. I fall to the ground and put my head between my knees and just sob. Someone sits beside me and wraps their arms around me and starts to rock me.

"Shh its okay don't cry. Every thing will be alright. It gets better I promise. It will get better." A deep but gentle voice soothes me. After like five minutes I finally stop crying and my breath evens. I can feel my eyes getting heavy and finally shut. Shortly i'm asleep.

(HARRY'S POV)

We all stood around Alec who had Bella in his arms while sitting on the floor against the end of the bed. Alec and Bella haven't officially met yet tho. I feel so bad for hurting her but I also have so many questions for her too. Why is she cutting? Is she depressed? Does she need help? I look down at her and realize she is asleep. I don't think anyone else has noticed this yet. "Um guys I think she is asleep." I say to the rest of the gang. "Alec do you think you can lift her up without waking her up?" I ask.

"Uh ya I think so why?" He asks.

"Okay I want you to pick her up and put her on her bed. Ryan I want you to go into the bathroom and get a wet rag." I tell Ryan.

"Why?" He asks puzzled.

"So we can clean up the blood on her arm."

"Okay." He walks into the bathroom and about a minute later he comes out with a damp rag.

"Thanks. You guys can wait downstairs if you want while I clean her arm." They all shuffle out of the room and I sit next to Bella and I start to clean her arm being careful not to hurt her and or wake her up. Once i'm finished I head downstairs with the others.

"I'm sorry you guys had to see her like that." Bella's grandmas said. " Oh and by the way i'm Maxine but just call me max. " She introduced herself. We talked for a while till we heard shuffling coming from upstairs.

(BELLA'S POV)

I toss and turn and rub the sleepiness out of my eyes. I get out of bed and walk downstairs into the kitchen and suddenly stop in my tracks. Sitting in the kitchen before me are seven really sexy looking boys in the room talking with my grandma. Shit they are talking with my grandma! I look around the room and I spot Harry, then Zach and Ryan and Kennen and Jake and Austin. Then there was this other guy I don' t recognize. Just then I remembered why they were all here. "Shit..." I groaned. I had a massive headache so I walked over to the medicine cabnate and reached for the ibuprofen on the top shelf. My shirt raised up a little and I didn't think anything about it until someone whistled at me. I groan again. "Ryan I swear to god if that was you I will smack the living daylight out of you." I said. Just then I hear a loud smack.

"Ow! Too late for that. Your grandma already beat you to it. Now I know where you get your aggressiveness from." Ryan states. I just chuckle. I grab a water bottle from the fridge and take the ibuprofen.
