-Escape-

Chapter 10

**ZAYN’S POV **

I ran through the woods as fast as I could with jade glued to my side. She didn't struggle at all as the girls screams died out. As we were running I moved her so that her head fell into the crook of my neck and her legs wrapped around my waist.

Jade hugged me closer, pulling me into her tighter.

I got shivers.

I carried her into the house sobbing into my shirt. The boys looked at me but I waved them off, I knew that she didn’t want them to see her cry. I carried her upstairs and hesitated in front of Harry’s room before opening the door. I walked over to the bed but right before I put her down she fisted my shirt and looked up at me.

“Don’t leave me in here with him” she whispered, the desperation in her eyes too much for me to bare.

I looked away so I didnt have to see her big sad brown eyes “Jade I know you don’t want to see Harry but you two have to-“

“Please?” she asked one more time letting another tear fall from her eyes.

I looked at her.

She was pale; her hair hadn’t been brushed in days. Her lips were chapped and her bloodshot eyes filled with tears. The reason for this was Harry. I hated to see her like this, but I couldn’t do anything.

Or could I.

I sighed. “Okay.” I picked her up and carried her down the hall to the extra bedroom.

I opened the door to see the bed flung to the other side of the room and blood all over the floor.

This is where he almost killed her.

I clenched my fist and quickly closed the door and walked down the hall to my room. I put her down and this time she didn’t complain. She was already a lot stronger then she was, but she was still broken. I got into the other side of the bed, careful to keep my distance.

She turned around and looked at me.

“I’m sorry Zayn,” she whispered.

“For what?” I ask even though I know exactly what she is talking about.

“For judging you. Just because you are quieter and you um…. you know with my parents, doesn’t mean you are a bad guy," she said from all the way across the bed "I-I wish I could have seen that earlier." she finished, flipping the pillow over but not taking her eyes off of me once.

“Thank you,” I replied as if it was no big deal. But o the inside there were fireworks.

She then turned around and closed her eyes. I could hear her crying even though she tried to muffle it with the pillows. I hesitantly closed the space between us and put my arm around her.

“Don’t cry. I-It will be okay,” I tried, never really being the one to comfort people.

To my surprise she didn’t stiffen up when I touched her, she trusted me.

She shuffled closer to me before turning around and burying her head in my neck again“He cares more about his vampire ego then me.” She whispered to me.

“That’s not true Harry…. loves you” I said choking on the last two words.

Maybe Harry does love Jade, but he is bad for her. He only hurts her. I can protect her; I know that Jade and me are meant to be. Not her and Harry. But I tell her that he loves her after he chose blood over her love because I know that it will make her happy.

All I want is for Jade to be Happy.

she sniffed a little but, the crying dieing down as the warmth of her body transfered into mine“He couldn’t spare one girl for me. He wasn’t even hungry, he was just-“

“What’s going on?” asked a figure from the door.

We both sat up and there stood Harry. I went to remove my arm from around Jade but she held tight.

“I told you I don’t love you anymore, so I’m not sleeping in that bed.” She snarled at him, wiping away the tears that sat on her cheeks as if to seem braver

“Yet you sleep with him? The boy who killed your parents!” asks Harry throwing his arms in the air, stepping into the room.

Jade grips my hand tighter. “He couldn’t help it he-“

“He sucked the life out of them Jade”

“Stop it Harry Zayn can’t-“

“He watched them die right in front of him!”

“Harry Zayn didn’t mean it! He-“

“He left them lifeless on the cold hard-“

“STOP IT!” I screamed over the both of them, the words coming out of Harry's mouth hurting me more then they were hurting her.

I felt Jade start to shake in my arms. “I-I’m sorry,” I whispered.

I turned my attention to Harry. “Harry, Jade has had a rough night. The guest room isn’t an option and I think it would be best if-“

“You think it would be best?” he retorted cutting me off. “It doesn’t matter what you think! She is my mate!”

Jade sat up a bit more “I told you, that if you killed that girl-“

“I DON’T CARE! I CALL THE SHOTS FOR YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE MINE!” he screamed. I only now noticed the tears falling from his cheeks because they had stopped.

She calmly let go of the hand that was holding my arm around her and this time grabbed onto my hand "I'm not your anymore," she breathed out calmly

Harry clenched his fists and began walking towards us“This is STUPID! You are coming with me wither you like it or not.”

“No she is not.” I said trying to keep my cool for Jade's sake

Harry laughed. “Since when do you get to deicide Zayn? Jade doesn’t even want to be around you let alone like you! The only reason she is here is because you helped her. Why exactly did you help her Zayn?” he asked knowing exactly what he is doing.

I held a straight face. “Because you are my friend”

“No one is buying that Zayn” he spat. “The only reason that you helped Jade is because you have a petty little crush on her”

Jade looked up at me quickly letting go of my hand. I looked down at her with my mouth open, but no words came out. I looked back up at Harry who was smiling, I wanted to beleive that this wasnt him.

“That’s not true. Me and Jade are just friends.” I said twitcing a bit as I tried so hard to contain the gold that was trying to sep into my brown eyes.

Jade was still looking up at me but I didn’t dare meet her gaze.

“He constantly watches us Jade,” said Harry trying to prove his point. “He only finally got the balls to talk to you. Well guess what Zayny she is TAKEN!” he boomed.

I clenched my fists.

Jade brought her hand up to my face and gently turned my head so that I was facing her. Her eyes looked into mine for a little while before she smiled. She lifted herself up a little bit and put her lips on mine.

It was sweet, soft, and amazing.

When she pulled back we both looked at Harry and before I knew it I was thrown to the side and he was sitting on top of Jade.

“YOU LITTLE SLUT” he screamed as Jade struggled unerneath him and he brought his hand down and slapped her across the face

I pounced on Harry ignoring the pain that was shooting through my hip “HOW DARE YOU TREAT HER LIKE THAT!” I yelled back tackling him to the floor.

I heard Jade scramble out of the room.

It was only Harry and I.

This wasn’t going to end well either way.
