'Dear Alex,

I'm not the best at writing things like this but I will do anything for the girl I love. Where do I begin? For starters I'm so sorry that you had to find out about my past that way. You did not deserve too. Alex you deserve none of the things I have out you through. You don't. I love you more than someone could ever imagine. I would do anything for you, together or not. Because of you my sister is actually happy in life. She adores you, and so do I. You've brought happiness into each of our lives and I cannot thank you enough.

That night when we went on the hot air balloon is when I realized I wanted to be with you as much as possible. That same night is when I gained your trust, and I would do anything to get it back. You mean so much too me. And I hope I still mean a lot to you, because seeing you upset with me is tearing me apart inside. You are my light.

But the only way I could possibly make it up too you is to just be able to talk to you about everything. I will tell you everything, but I will need you to do something for me.

I need you to go to the lakeside that is out of town and meet me there at 8:30 p.m. tomorrow night. Please just give me one more chance, it's all I ask from you. And if I mess up again then you never have to speak to or see me ever again. Please just think about this.

I love you so much.

Harry'

Tears stained Alex's cheeks. Her heart was torn in two pieces. She wanted to forgive Harry, to crawl back into his arms but the other half of her was scared. Scared of what could happen to her life if she were to stay with Harry.

That night Alex lay in her bed, torn between two decisions, clutching the small note in her tiny hand.

---

The early Saturday morning was filled with darkening clouds and a small rain shower. Alex got up out of bed, heading down to the kitchen when Carter stopped her.

"Alex." His voice was quiet.

She didn't turn towards him. "What?"

"I'm sorry for everything that I've done. Truly sorry. A brother should never treat a sister like that. Please forgive me.."

Her body stiffened at his words. Carter has ever acted like this towards Alex. Either they were fighting or not on speaking terms. She's never had Carter be this sincere to her.

"Carter you messed up a lot of things. Because of you... you..." She stopped, tears spilled from her tired blue eyes. Alex was tired of putting up with this. She was tired.

Alex ignored Carter's plea as she rushed out of the house, jumping into her car. Rain soaked through her plain t shirt and droplets covered the windshield. She took all of her energy to speed to the only place where she felt safe.

Harry's arms.

Alex tried her best to stop crying but she couldn't. So much emotion was built up into her small body. She pulled up to a dim red light, wiping away stray tears, when she saw the curly haired boy sitting on the edge of the sidewalk. Alex quickly sped off, pulling the car up behind Harry.

Rain droplets poured down his skin, causing the black shirt of his to cling to his skin. Alex quickly jumped out of the car, running straight towards Harry.

Her small body bent down in front of his, cupping his cheek with her tiny hand. "Harry...I'm so sorry. I'm so so sorry." She pleaded, tears again falling from her eyes.

He didn't look at her, instead he rested his head in his hands. "I fucked up. I don't deserve you.." He whispered.

"Harry.. We both did. We both messed up.. I-I love you."

Green eyes met hers. They looked tired and sad. Dark circles covered Harry'a skin. He was a mess.

"Alex, I don't deserve you at all."

"You do, ok? You do. I love you so much." Her small frame wrapped around his soaked body.

"I love you too" he whispered into the crook of her neck.

Alex was exactly where she wanted to be. In Harry's arms. Same goes for Harry, all he wanted in life was to be with the girl he loved.

From the party, to meeting her on the street in the rainy night, Harry had fallen head over heels in love with Alex Parker. Harry threatened Alex's future, but she would do anything for him. He would do anything for her. They were meant for each other.
