A low buzzing noise was heard as my eyes fluttered open slowly. I suddenly closed them again when the brightness of the sunlight nearly blinded me. My body shifted upward and i came to a sitting position. The blood rushed out of my head and i got a little dizzy before i finally opened my eyes fully. I was sat on a queen sized bed in a grey room. My hand nonchalantly ran over the dark grey sheets and i just sat blankly looking around the room. The buzzing was escaping the blades of the ceiling fan. The dark walls were covered with picture frames with photographs of a bright eyed little boy and he grew in to a beautiful young man. There was a white door to my left which i guessed was a closet and a dark brown, wooden dresser that held a mirror directly in front of my with a small TV on it. I held my stare for a while until reality hit me and i jumped up from the bed only to feel a sharp pain run through my left leg. "Darcy!!!!" i yelled as i limped to the door. My weak arms jerked the door open and i could hear a soft hum coming from down the hall.

I was scared of getting lost in the unfamiliar hall. The only thing i could do was follow the humming. My eyes scanned the doors for any description but there was nothing. I thought of opening them but i thought it wasn't my place. I squinted my eyes at the light at the end of the hall and i could make out the opening in to a living room. I stopped when my head started to spin but i kept going afterwords because i needed to find my baby. As i neared the brightness i saw a picture and . I slowly walked closer to it and placed my finger on the glass. I gulped and butterflies erupted in my stomach with nervousness. My feet slid across the hardwood hesitantly as the humming got louder.

I followed the path of the room to another entrance in to a kitchen where I saw my curly headed past standing there along with my baby. I cleared my throat and the dish that was in his hand crashed to the ground as he snapped his head towards me quickly. "Oh! God you scared me!" Harry yelled. I looked at him, mouth hanging open and he smiled before walking towards me. My eyes followed him as he stopped in front of me and bent to the side, his breath loomed over me like it used to and i slowly closed my eyes. His chuckle knocked me away from my thoughts and i opened my eyes to realize his action was only to get the broom that was behind me. I was somewhat disappointed because i wanted to feel loved again after all this time. He left me there and trudged over to his former place to bend to the floor, picking up large shards of china before sweeping the Smaller portions.

"I....I'm so sorry..." i apologized. Harry shook his head, curls bouncing as he stood back up and smiled at me, walking toward the trash can.

"I'ts fine...It wasn't important." he said with a small smile. (why was he being so nice?). Reality hit me and I frantically looked around. Relief flushed through me when i saw my little girl sitting in a highchair playing in her bowl of macaroni. Harry threw away the broken plate as i waved at Darcy and she waved back. "I..." harry started, soon stopping when he saw me look at him sharply. I didn't mean to, it's just the fact that things were going so fast right now. I had gotten myself in to something so bad and now I had put my daughter at risk too and Harry had changed and I was afraid it was all an act. I didn't know what was going to happen next. For all I knew Harry would kick us out and I would live on the streets, social services would take Darcy and...my thoughts were interrupted as Harry continued. " Darcy has had a bath today and you see she's eaten." I nodded at him and he started to walk back to the sink.

An apron was tied around his waist and he was looking incredibly cute. "Harry!......" i said quickly, as if it was the last chance i would ever have to see him again. Harry turned sharply and stared at me with a certain glint in his eye. "Th...thank you..." i stuttered quietly. Harry smiled widely and nodded at me. I could've sworn i saw water growin in his eyes. It looked as though that was all he needed all these years. Was to be appreciated.

"You're welcome." he muttered as he smiled ear to ear. Harry turned back around and started to stir whatever he was cooking. I couldn't help but stare as he stood at the stove. His head was bowed and his curls fell over his brow. I let a tear slip as a memory came back that i hadn't remembered since it happened.

*FLASHBACK*~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I ran in to my bedroom as fast as I could and locked my door from the inside. I leapt forward and jumped, face first on my soft bed. The voices of my parents echoed throughout my home. My cellphone rang as if it was a miracle. I needed someone right now. I leaned over my pillows and grabbed my phone from my bedside table. "Hello?" i asked with a sniffle.

"Savannah? Are you OK?" Harry asked urgently. I bit my lip so he wouldn't hear my sobs. His voice making the truth so much more realistic. My family was screwed up. A tear fell down my cheek as i reached over beside me and gripped my teddy bear lightly before pressing him to my chest, resting my chin on top of his head. "SAVANNAH?!" harry exclaimed.

"My...p-p....parents...ar..are fighting ag..g...gain....." i choked out softly.

"Aww baby doll.....I'll be there in a few seconds...Open your window and lock your door." he said as gently as possible. I nodded as we ended the conversation and i stumbled over to my window and unlatched the locks. My arms pushed the window up and i closed my eyes as i took in the scent of the midnight air. I stood in my window as i waited for about ten minutes when i heard a "Psssst!" My gaze dropped downward as i watched harry climb up the ladder that was built in to the side of my apartment building. Harry's foot slipped a little and i gasped before he looked at me and chuckled lightly, making me laugh too. Soon enough Harry was sat on my window sill and he hung his leg out the window as the other one straddled to other side of my window. "I was thinking...." Harry said as his demples showed themselves. His head fell as he stared at my carpeted floor. Harry looked back up at me and smiled. "We should run away together......." he said. My eyes grew ten times their size as i stared at him.

"Are you serious?!?!?!" i almost yelled before i realized the situation we were in and i changed my volume. "Are you serious?" i whispered calmly. Harry stared in to my eyes and nodded as he chuckled lightly. "Can we?" i asked excitedly. Harry looked at me and grabbed my hand softly in his.

"Savannah?.....Will you run away with me and be mine forever?" he asked in a whisper. A single tear fell down my cheek and i bit my lip softly.

"And ever....." i whispered.

~~~~~~~~~~~~FLASHBACK OVER~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

"What?......." Harry asked softly as he rinse off the pan in his large right hand, silver ring shining under the water. He looked at me with a smile before he saw the tears on my face and his own face went blank as he slowly walked towards me. Harry's arms quickly wrapped around me and i gripped his waist tightly. Not wanting to let go. It been so long since someone had cared and I just accepted the hug from my ex love and I just breathed him in.

"I.......I love you......" I whispered before I could even think about it.
