Unwanted Attention

Chapter 17

As soon as we got into the house Anne was sitting in the kitchen down the hall drinking, what I assumed was coffee until she looked at Harry carrying me.

"Oh my god! What on earth happened?!" Anne yelled from across the hall as she ran towards us.

Right now I was being carried by Harry and I still couldn't feel my body. I was totally numb. I set my head on Harry's shoulder while he talked to his mother about finding me on his porch. Wow I sound so pathetically weak.

"I'll go get you some hot cocoa sweetie." She said worriedly and rushed off into the kitchen.

"T-thank y-you." I managed to spit out.

Harry then carried me up the many stairs and took me into his bedroom. He then set me down on his bed gently then frantically tried to find blankets to cover me up. He found a blanket while he was rummaging through his messy closet and put it on top of my shivering and numb body. I'm not just numb from being cold, it's also because I just found out ill be leaving in a few days and my mother and father will not be together any more. I know his because my father has never snapped on her like that. He use to get made and yell but nothing like this.

"Are you okay Anna? How did you get here?" He asked completely baffled an worried.

"I-I walked." I answered.

"That's a thirty minute walk and its almost minus 30 degrees out there! Are you insane?!" He yelled worriedly. Oh I'm getting there honey, don't you worry, I thought to myself.

"Y-You're cute w-when your worried." I said trying to avoid the question.

"Anna I'm being serious. You could have gotten hurt, hit by someone because of the snow, you could have gotten frost bite if you stayed out any longer," he said. "Why didn't you just call me? I would have came." He worriedly said as he put his hands over his face.

"I-I don't know." I stuttered this time because of nervousness, not because I was freezing.

"Anna you can tell me." He said.

"I-I know," I sighed. I trust this curly haired, green eyed, sweet, badass with my life. "I-"

"I've got your hot cocoa sweetie." Anne smiled she walked through Harry's door. I mentally thanked her from making me have this conversation with him even though I know he's going to bring it up again.

Anne handed me the cute little mug that had tiny snow men on the sides. I took it from her grasp and sipped on the sweet hot cocoa and it made me feel a lot warmer then I was before.

"Thank you so much." I smiled politely at Harry's beautiful mother.

I think he got his gorgeousness and sweetness from his mother because she has both. I should not be thinking about who Harry got his features from.

"No problem. Anything for you." She smiled.

I smiled back at Anne and looked over at Harry who still looked worried. I looked away from him and enjoyed the most amazing cup of cocoa I've ever had.

"Anna..." Harry started. I know where this is going.

"Because I didn't have the time Harry." I snapped. "I-I'm sorry. I didn't mean to be rude." I apologized right after I knew I had said something wrong.

"It's okay." He said and climbed on the bed.

Harry climbed under the blanket and pulled my body into his. He kissed the top of my head. I love when Harry cares for me more then I care for myself. He's always there to love all of me, including my flaws, more then I ever could love myself. We laid in silence for about ten minutes until Harry needed answers. I knew I owed it to him to let him know what was going on with my family. The moving away for school thing can wait a till tomorrow.

"My mom," I started to talk as my heart clenched. "Was drunk when she came home today. She always does that so it was no surprise to my father and I but the thing is, this time she was over the top. She drank way too much and my father finally snapped. I think they're done." I let my tears fall as I hid my head into Harry's chest.

"Shhh, it's okay. We'll get through this together. I've been through this. Yes, It hurts at the time but then you will feel like it was for a good reason. You'll feel better because your dad is so much better then that. Ill be here the whole time baby, don't worry." He exclaimed.

The only thing is is that you won't be. Ill be in another country. Ill be far away, my thoughts added.

I wish I could just die but at the same time, I love who I've become. I like the Anna Miller that has a wonderful boyfriend and is not afraid to talk to guys anymore. I like that I'm not that girl who is stuck in some pair of black skinny jeans and black tank top with black shoes. I hated who I was in elementary school and now I finally like myself.

I stayed silent as Harry soothed me. I hated knowing that he won't be here to save me if I ever break. I hated knowing I'll have to be by myself without Harry to tell me I played great even though I didn't. He just won't be by my side and it's killing me each second as I think about it. I know Harry will take this harshly but I know he has to be told what was going on. I'm going to tell him tomorrow, the day before I leave, and I hope that he won't leave me. I really like Harry and I know he likes me back just as much. I just hope that is enough to stick with me.

I began to get very tired as I was still wrapped in Harry's arms on his bed. I looked up at his face and noticed he was sleeping. I got up quietly, laid his body down then jumped back into the bed putting the covers over both our bodies. I kissed his cheek and laid down with my head on his chest. I wish we could stay like this forever. we could be a cliche happy teen couple and nothing would get in our way. But this is reality and it will never be like those cliche teen couples in books and movies.

I finally drifted off to sleep while I was thinking of what to say to Harry tomorrow. I need to let him know that ill be leaving. I think he deserves a girl that won't be 6 hours away. he deserves someone to treat him exactly the way I did, but they need to be closer. Even though I don't want to let him be happy with someone else I know that a long distance relationship for at least 4 years will not work in mine or his favour. I hope to one day be able to be happy but at this moment I'm stuck in a position that makes me depressed and it feels terrible.
