I'm Here, Love (One Direction)

Chapter 2

Chapter 2

"Harry, you need to leave. Jessica isn't yours. I'm tired of seeing you here." James spat with anger in his eyes. If I didn't go along with James I didn't know what would happen, but it wouldn't be good.

"Harry, I don't think it's a good time to be here right now..." I glared at Harry, giving him a cue to leave.

Harry looked at me with anger and confusion and I immediately knew I shouldn't of said that. Later on, he might be upset with me for not standing up to James. The room went silent. You would've been able to hear a pen drop. What is he going to say? I gave him a look pleading for him to leave before James did something unpleasant. I stared into his beautiful eyes. Please, Harry. I don't want him to hurt you.

Harry broke eye contact with me and shook his head. He stood up and looked at James straight in the eye. "You need to leave Jess alone." He said with a stern voice.

"She's my girlfriend. Get the fuck out. I'm tired of seeing you with her." James began pointing to the door instead of Harry. I remembered the countless times James found me with Harry.

"You're the one who cheated on her!" Harry yelled probably the loudest I've ever heard. "You've hurt her so many times and she always comes running to me." Shit. I wished a thousand times that time would just reverse and Harry never said that. James was pissed.

"Is that true?" James put his eyes on me. "Let me remind you, Jess, I help you in any way I can! Shit, I pay for your rent. You're nothing without me. Nothing, bitch."

I remained silent. Those words hit me hard. I felt a stinging sensation emerge on my face as my vision went blurry with tears. You're nothing without me. Bitch. I couldn't here or see what was going on. I completely zoned out  until I saw Harry tackle James. By the time I fixed my eyes on them, Harry was on top of James preparing for a punch. "DON'T TALK TO HER LIKE THAT!" Harry yelled. I burst into tears.

"Harry, get off of him." I whispered to where he almost couldn't even hear me. Harry looked at me confused why he shouldn't punch James but eventually put his fist down and got up.

"James, leave." I said sternly. James stumbled out, in shock. Nobody had ever stood up to him like that in the duration of our relationship. Before shutting the door, James yelled. "We're done!"

"Jess, you need to get away from here. Before that guy does something. I'll tell you one thing I've learned over the past 2 years of shit I've learned about him and it's that he's crazy." Harry said as he he put his hands on my cheeks.

He was so tall, I had to lift my head to look at him. But instead, I avoided eye contact. I didn't say anything at all.

"I'm sorry he did that. And I'm sorry you had to see me like that." Harry lifted my chin so I had to look at him.

"I don't know what to do. Things happened so quickly. I don't even have anywhere to live now that I can't afford rent." I closed my eyes to try and prevent more tears from running down my cheeks.

"You can live with me and Louis. Okay? I'll help you. I'm here. You're my best friend, remember? Since diapers." He whispered as I felt him wipe each and every tear off my face. "I know you're hurting. I don't want you to hurt, love."

For once, I felt like everything will be alright. I guess it was the end of me and James. I partly thanked Harry for ending it. I didn't have the courage to. But with Harry's offer, I didn't want to intrude on his life.It seemed like that's what I'm always doing. I felt bad. However, at this moment I realized one thing. I loved Harry Styles more than a friend. I think I always had.
