Or So It Seems (h.s.)

Chapter 13

"Oh- I had absolutely no idea you two were going to be here tonight"

His evil smile told us otherwise.

"What do you want, James" i snarled.

He laughed again, which made my blood boil.

"I already told you what i want, beautiful" he leant down closer to my face. His voice was harsh and he looked like he was about to snap.

Harry quickly stood up and put his hands on James' chest; keeping him away from me. His rough movement startled me, but i was thankful for it.

James' shirt was now fisted in Harry's hand.

"I suggest you stay away from her," Harry's deep voice growled in anger. "or soon enough, your sorry ass will be in the hospital"

A rumble of laughter erupted from James' throat. "And your sorry ass will be all over the tabloids and in jail.."

"That's it" With James' shirt still in his hand, Harry shook him once and began to drag him outside.

I sprang from my seat, throwing a few bills on the table for our waitress.

"Harry please stop." I hissed. I gave the part of the restaurant that was staring an assuring smile; letting them know i would calm it down. "Harry!!"

Once were in the parking lot i tried to calm him down the best i could.

"Harry, please don't do this, you promised!! Remember?"

"I'm not.. just going to sit back.. and watch him. .do this, Lainy!!" He snapped, still looking at the struggling jerk in his fists. Before i could stop him, Harry swung his arm around, punching James in the nose.

"Ohmy god" I brought my hands to my mouth. I've never seen Harry like this before. This side of him scared me..

"You hurt my girl!!!" He yelled in his face. "Why would you even think to hurt a woman like that, you inconsiderate asshole!" 2 more blows to James' face and a kick in the balls.

Tears were brimming my eyes. I didn't like this side of him.

"Please stop" i managed to squeak out.

A pair of dark green eyes met mine. He dropped James and rushed towards me. He brought his gentle hand to my face and i flinched away. The look in his eyes was full of hurt. They turned into a shade of light green.

"Babe-"

He tried to cup my cheek once again. I gave in and let him wipe away my tears.

"I'm so sorry- i hate him so much for hurting you and he deserved to be punched.."

I nodded as he stroked my cheek.

"Please don't be scared"

I pulled myself together and tried to look as tough as possible.

"I'm not." I didn't look in his eyes. He would know that i'm lying.

My eyes were plastered to the groaning body on the black pavement. In a way, it felt so good to see him like that. After all of the times he's hurt me, he finally knows what it feels like.

"Youu- you will regret this s-styles" James fell back on the ground after trying to hoist up his shaky body.

"Next time it will be worse." Harry shot back. I put my hands on his biceps and pecked him on the cheek. My action calmed him down a little.

"Oh-h you just wait pretty boy, you have no idea what i have planned. . for youu-"

"Whatever- let's go Lain" mumbles fell from Harry's mouth as we walked towards the car. James got up and stumbled to his.
