Resist (A Harry Styles Fanfiction)

Chapter Thirty-Four

ABBY'S POV

I wake up without Harry next to me. I get up and put a bra on. I walk into the living room.

"Harry?" I call out. No answer.

I see my phone on the counter,

HARRY <3 : Good Morning darling, went to the grocery store be home soon xx

Home.

I liked calling this apartment my home but it was foreign to me, literally.

I get washed up and put on my black pencil skirt since I couldn't really get my cast into skinny jeans and a warped tour tank top. I decided I would go explore the apartment complex since there were so many features. I take my keys and lock the door behind me without my phone.

Niall lived here too, he was actually a cool guy but he was drunk on the plane so he was a bit of a creep.

I walk past the basketball courts and see a bunch of guys my age playing. I notice Niall out of the crowd and watch them play.

"Oh hey shawty!" One of the males say. I look behind me to see who he's talking to. "I'm talking to you." He assures me and laughs. I roll my eyes at him and walk over to Niall.

"Hey Niall." I say.

"Hey Abs, ignore them they are assholes he says and walks away from them next to me.

"Like you yesterday?" I raise an eyebrow.

"Yeah, about that I'm really sorry. I had been at a party earlier and I got a little bit drunk." He frowns. "Tell Harry my apologies."

"I will." I say. He smiles and gives me a hug. "What school are you going to?" I ask him.

"Los Angeles Performing Arts. Its great you should go there." He says as we keep walking.

"I'll look into it." I assure him.

"So how are you doing by the way?" He frowns.

"I stopped cutting Niall."

He looks up at me and smiles. "Abby I'm so proud of you!" He nearly screams and pulls me into a hug and spins me around. I laugh and he sets me back down on the ground.

"Thank you." I keep laughing.

HARRY'S POV

I turn the corner with five bags of groceries and I see Niall picking up Abby. She was laughing and smiling.

I feel anger boiling in my stomach. I blink and when I open my eyes Niall was laying on the ground clutching his head and Abby was crying.

"Harry! Stop!" She cried into her hands, they were shaking.

I don't remember hitting him...

"Abigail.." I bite my lip and reach for her but she flinches and backs away. She, was scared of me? No no no what did I do. "Abby- please.." I beg with my voice cracks and Niall huffs and walks away. She runs down the hall away from me.

Shit.

She was always afraid of people getting hurt just because that's what people wanted to do to her, now I was apart of her fear.

I walk up to the apartment and hear sobbing from her room concealed by a closed door.

I tap on it with my knuckle. "Abigail?" I gently whisper. No answer. "Can I please come in? Let me explain please." I ask.

"C-come I-in." She stutters and she is hugging her knees at the farthest point from the door.

I walk towards her and she flinches. "S-stay there." She demands.

I frown and sit at the edge of her bed.

"Abby, I'm so sorry." I choke out. Her blue eyes were pooled. "Im a jealous asshole. But please don't be scared of me... I-I would never ever hurt you." She bites her lip and a tear falls from her eye. That broke my heart. I bury my head in my hands and I try to hold back tears but I couldn't.

I feel a shaky hand on my shoulder. I turn around and Abby flinches. I gently reach for her hand. She lets me take it. I signal her to sit on my Lap and she does. My fingers trace skull tattoo on her collar bone, I kiss it gently and she calms down. I wipe a tear off her face. Both of her hands are tangled in my shirt. "I'm so sorry, please don't be afraid of me..." I beg.

She presses her lips together and leans her head on my shoulder not saying anything.

"I will never hit you and you know that why are you flinching?" I beg her.

"Adam used to hit me..." She whimpers and starts crying again. My mouth falls open and I pull her so she is lying on top of me. She cries into my chest and tangles her legs in mine. My strong arms wrap around her fragile body.

"I won't EVER hit you. I'm not like Adam." I promise and kiss her forehead.

"I know it just brought back memories and I... I don't-" she starts crying hysterically.

"Abigail... Shhh, shh I would risk my life if it meant keeping you safe from him. He's half a world away, you are safe now." I assure her.

Eventually she stops crying and lets me kiss her.

"You want to eat now?" I ask.

She nods.

What a great way to start out our life here...
