Angel [Dark H.S]

•Chapter 15•

Violet

My eyes fluttered open as the sunlight seeped in through the thin curtains. I rolled over to find I was alone in bed, Harry must already be up. My mind began playing over the events from the previous night, the conclusion
being: I was a fucking idiot.

How could I kiss him after everything I've found out about him? It was like a magnet inside him that pulled me towards him every time I was in his presence. I need to be stronger. I can do this! I pushed myself out of bed and wandered towards the motel door, quickly grabbing, what I assume, is Harry's hoodie before exiting the room. The sun hit my eyes causing me to squint at the unfamiliar light. I leant over the corridor balcony and spotted Louis and Niall messing around in the pool at the back of the motel. Quickly finding my way down to the pool gates, I joined them.

"Morning Violet" Niall smiled in my direction, his blue eyes shining in the light. I smiled in response, sitting awkwardly on the edge of a sun bed

"Where's Harry?" Niall and Louis were now leaning on the wall of the pool, side by side as they watched me talk.

"He's out with Zayn, he's got a few things to take care of, he'll be back any minute" Louis brushed my question off casually, his fingers wiping some water from his eyes.

"Did you sleep well?" Niall bit his lip as he awaited my response.

"Yes thank you" I smiled shyly. I was attempting to build up the confidence to ask them about Harry, I decided it would be best to just go for it and see what happens.

"How do you know Harry?" I looked between both of them, my hands fiddling with each other with nerves.

"Oh we go back ages, we've all known him since we were kids" my eyes widened as Louis began , I guess I forget that Harry is also human.

"But how did Harry get like --" I was interrupted by the sound of the pool gate opening, my head running to reveal Harry and Zayn approaching us around the pool.

"Thought I told you to watch Violet not fuck around in your speedos" Harry smirked as I he sat uncomfortably close next to me. No surprise that Zayn ignored me, collapsing on to a near by sun bed.

"I wore speedos one time ok" Niall rolled his eyes, I giggled at the thought of Niall wearing speedos.

"Right boys stop fucking about, got to head out again soon" Harry stood up next to me, my eye brows furrowing at the loss of his closeness.

"Where are we going?" I asked, Harry scoffing in response

"We are not not going anywhere. I'm going to buy you some clothes and shit, can't just live in my stuff forever" he smirked as his eyes fell to his hoodie that drowned my body. I immediately stood up, I needed to get out into real life, even if it was just for a few hours.

"Please let me come" I almost begged, Harry's features showing no sign of changing.

"No way, not after that little cross country act you pulled yesterday" his eyes narrowed into mine, staring me down like I was insane.

"Please! I won't leave your side I swear, I just need to be out around normal people" I pleaded.

"Ouch" Niall and Louis laughed behind me, but I kept focus on my goal. Harry's face softened at my words and a look of, what I though could be hurt?, flashed across his features for a split second. He chewed on his inner lip, as he seemed to think on my question before finally looking back down on me.

"Fine, but you don't leave my sight and you're gonna have to wear some kind of a disguise" I nodded frantically, a wide grin across my lips. He turned his gaze towards the sun bed, picking up the fedora sat on the surface. He put the hat on the back of my head, pulling my hair to either side of it.

"I didn't peg you as the kind of guy who wore fedoras" I said in a teasing tone, smirking up at him

"Fuck off it's Niall's" he laughed.

"Again. Ouch" Niall said bluntly looking up at us from the water.

"Ok let's get going" Harry said, making his way to the pool gate. "Niall you coming?" He turned back as he fiddled with the latch.

"Yeah mate, one minute" Niall jumped out of the pool and began running his body down with a towel, then whilst pulling a shirt over his head he ran after me and Harry.

I got in the front of the car, Niall's hat still sat firmly on my head. Harry pulled out of the motel and began driving down the familiar long road. We drove in silence for the most part, Niall's occasional humming and patting on the back of my seat being the only sound filling the car.

After about 10 minutes Harry pulled into a shopping mall car park, the black SUV coming to halt in one of the spaces. Niall jumped out almost immediately, I went to follow but Harry grabbed the door to stop me, his body now completely leaning over mine.

"Keep your head down and stay next to me. Understand." He said firmly earning a shy nod from me.

The mall was like every other I've ever been in, nothing special, it just felt so good to be around other people. I almost felt free. If it weren't for Harry and Niall walking closely either side of me, I would feel normal. We stopped in a few shops, I picked out basic t-shirts, jeans, shorts and of course underwear. Though Harry insisted on me modeling the underwear for him, I left him outside the changing room
door.

Luckily no one had given me any strange looks or wandering gazes, so I think I'm safe from any suspicion. I suddenly snapped myself out of my thoughts, I should want people to notice me. I should be screaming at the top of my lungs. I told myself I wasn't because of Harry's wrath, but a part of me knew there was something else behind it.

As we were leaving, my head snapped towards a man walking adjacent to us. Riley. He was walking quickly around the groups of young teen girls, his head hung low and a hood covering his blonde hair. My eyes widened and I tripped slightly with shock, Harry turned around from in front of me, his hand still holding mine tightly.

"What's wrong?" He asked, his eyes studying mine intently.

"N..nothing" I stuttered whilst avoiding his gaze. Despite my desperate attempts to seem calm and hide Riley's presence, Harry's eyes turned to look in his direction. I watched him as he examined Riley's appearance, his eyes widening as he recognized him. He turned back to me, his jaw clenched and eye brows furrowed.

"We have to go" he said to Niall. He began pulling me faster towards the exit almost yanking my arm out of the socket.

In the rush of the moment I just managed to turn around briefly to Riley's direction. He glanced up from the ground, our eyes meeting for a split second before I was dragged out the entrance and he disappeared from my sight.
