Girl Crush ☞ h.s.

[the end]

Ash.

She comes to, looking around the room blankly. Her stomach does flips and her head spins like crazy. She suddenly feels very ill, like she could pass out at any given moment.

She pushes past everyone, her small body thrown around like a doll. He was going to hurt him, or hurt himself trying. She pushes open the heavy exit door, running out into the backstreet. It was poorly lit and almost looked of something from a horror movie. Not to mention Harry's tall figure towering over Jake.

Louis was no where to be found. She was terrified. Before she could call out to him or run to him, he was shoving the boy roughly towards the ground.

"Listen, dude, it wasn't my idea! I swear, this was all arranged by someone else; you have to believe me!" Jake shouts, looking at Harry with the most horrified expression. Harry's mouth twists into a sick smirk, as if he thought Jake's pain was amusing.

Suddenly, Harry's pouncing onto the other, fists making contact with something. She's not sure if she should be crying out for Louis or begging Harry to stop; instead, she's just standing there like an idiot. Jake's weak attempt to fight back was heartbreaking. She didn't know what to do.

"Harry--" she calls out shakily, her voice quivering with fear. "Harry, please," she cries. His movements still for only a moment before he's picking the boy back up and siting him on his feet.

She could tell he was upset, and he seemed torn. He had Jake's shirt in fist still as he stares at the ground beneath him. "Please, man, just let me go," Jake cries.

Harry's eyes snap back up to Jake's bloody face, expression going blank. He releases the boy's shirt, only to punch him once again; a loud thud against his jaw and he's toppling over. "If I ever see you near her again, you are dead." He mumbles venomously.

He turns around, facing her. He notices the fear in her features. He reaches out to her and she pulls away. She looks at the broken boy on the concrete and back up to Harry. "Go," she mumbles incoherently. He reaches for her arm again. "Go!" She screams loudly.

She walks past him and kneels to Jake. He's covered in blood. She picks up her phone dialing an ambulance. "Yes, my friend has been hurt. I'm not sure what happened. I'm at local club on Sickemore street. Thank you so much."

She stands up and realizes Harry is still standing behind her. "Harry, if I ever see your face again—" she warns darkly. "I quit. I don't want to be anywhere near you. You're sick."

"Ashton, please. Just let me talk to you. You need to know—"

She finally turns, facing Harry. "I don't need to know anything! You cheated on me with someone else and when I move on you act like it's wrong!" She lies. She knows that she never got over Harry. She probably will never get over him.

"I'm done with you, with this! You could've killed this guy!" She screams as she points to the limp body on the ground.

"Ashton, I love you," he cries.

"Harry, you are broken. I don't know what is wrong with you," she says menacingly. "I barely know this man. Imagine if I had actually slept with him!"

"Don't say that! That's not okay!" He cries. His face is tear-streaked and his shoulders are slumped.

"It is okay now! Because we are never seeing each other ever again! It's done— we're done!" She screams.

They both still as sirens appear. Harry looks at her lost. "Go, I'll say that I found him like this." She tells him.

"Ashton, please." He cries.

"Go!" She screams again.

He goes back into the bar, eyes welled up with tears.

Louis hugged her tightly, eyes watering slightly. "I'm gonna miss you so bad."

She sniffles, chuckling a bit. "I know, but it's good for me to start fresh. I need this," she tells him as she pulls from the hug. "Everything will work out."

"I know." He mumbles. He stares at the ground for a moment before glancing back up at her. "I'm going to help him, you know. I'm his best friend. I'll make sure he gets the help he needs."

She sighs, "you are a good man, Louis."

And nothing more made her want to cry. She loved Harry and she knew the only way to get away was moving. Cali would be good for her. She needed somewhere away from here.

"I'm gonna miss you so much," he says, eyes tearing up again.

"Okay, Okay! No more tears. This will be fun for me!" She swears.

He nods, hugging her one last time.

After Louis was gone and everything was packed she stepped outside, glancing at her door. This was it. Her big break. She was new now.

Her door had a small note taped to it with Harry's name sprawled across the envelope. It was better to tell him this way. She knew he would come back.

But none of that mattered now. Because Ashton was finally free.
