The Fighter

Chapter Eighteen

Liam's P.O.V


I can't fucking believe that Vanessa called me Harry. I understand that she couldn't see me, but why does she have to mention his name? Why didn't she say Ariana or Niall or some shit other than fucking Harry?

I walk towards the exit, bumping into everyone in my way without saying excuse me. I'm too pissed to talk to anyone. I can't take this anymore; I need to get a drink. I have to take my mind off of this. But I can't. She called me Harry. That's like me calling her Emily.

I finally reach my car and punch the steering wheel, causing a loud horn. Why did she have to run off and leave me at Forever 21? She's mine. Not Harry's. She told me she loved me and she let me fuck her. Something Harry has never done to her. Or did they fuck without telling me? Just thinking about Nessa and Harry having sex makes me want to throw up. I'm the only one that should be fucking her. Nobody can make her feel the way I make her feel. I had nobody before Vanessa came. Yeah, I had sex with plenty of girls almost every night, but they didn't mean anything to me, I didn't care about them. I didn't even speak to them after I fucked them. But Vanessa... she's different. I want her.

I'll make sure I wake up extra early and get her. We'll go out of town or somewhere. I need her to get away from Harry. I need to get away from him too, before I end up killing him. Who does he think he is, ruining my relationship or whatever I have with Vanessa. She's mine. I'll don't want any guys looking at her; I'll kick their ass. I don't know about us having a future together, but for now, I want her. Harry can have any girl in the world he wants, but not my girl. Vanessa belongs to me.

Harry's POV

I sat outside of Vanessa's hospital room. I can't go home, not tonight. I'll sleep on this cold hard floor if I have to. I'll do anything just to have Vanessa next to me in my arms, just one more time at least. I need her, that might be something plenty of guys say about one girl they love, but I seriously mean it.

Three nurses walked out of Nessa's room, and I jump up in excitement and fear. I'm not ready for the news. I hope it's not bad news, the last time I was in her room there was a monitor beeping and I got kicked out. I look down at the ground as they stop in front of me.

"She's awake. Would you like to see her?" the blonde nurse asks. What kind of question is that? Of course I want to see her. Why else would I be sitting outside of her door for about an hour? I nod my head trying not to say anything.

"Okay, you can go ahead in. Are you staying the night?" she finally looks away from the clipboard she's been carrying since she went into her room.

"Yes," I quickly say before she finishes her question. She smiles and walks away. It seems like she's been talking to me for years. I'm ready to see Nessa. When I walk into her room I see her sitting up with a pillow behind her back and she's reading a thick book.

"What are you reading?" I ask, she jumps and I can tell she didn't know I was in the room. I chuckle as she sets the book down behind her and sits up.

"Oh, it's just a series I love, Beautiful Creatures." She gestures towards the book. I sit next to her on her bed, my feel touching the ground.

"How are you feeling?" I kick off my brown boots and turn towards her.

"Better than ever," she smiles. She has a warm smile that can make anyone melt on spot. I'd love to see her smile all day, for the rest of my life. I'd never get tired of it. I smile at her, her eyes sparkle when they look up at me. That's the first time I've smiled since Vanessa's asthma attack.

"I'm sorry..." I begin but she cuts me off.

"It's okay. I should've told you about it. Don't worry, I heard you when I was asleep," she smiles.
