Killer Love (A Harry Styles Fanfic)

Chapter Five Flashback

Flashback

I woke up a bit startled to find I was still in His bed. My phone vibrated on the nightstand and I was quick to grab it. My screen lit up with 5 missed calls from my dad and 12 texts or calls from my brother. I wonder what I should tell them. I can't tell them I was with my boyfirend, I wonder if Kate would let me use her for back up.

"Who called?" His voice made me jump and he stood in the doorway with a towel wrapped around his waist.

"Oh God, you scared me. And it was my dad. Five missed calls from him and 12 texts and calls from my brother." I laughed and through my phone on the bed.

"What're you going to tell him?" He asked with a smirk.

"That I was at Kate's. Unless, you want me to tell him I got drunk and crashed here. Even though that's not the whole truth." I said with a wicked smirk and wrapped my arms around his neck and leaning against his naked wet body.

"You think Kate will back you up?" He said putting his arms around my waist.

"Always does." I said and planted a small kiss on his lips. He smiles and looks me in the eye.

"So what do you want to do today?" He asked while getting dressed.

"Hmm, let's see I have to go home at some point. So lunch?" I asked while slipping on a pair of jeans I kept here and put one of His L.A. Kings sweatshirts on.

"Okay." He turned around and eyed me up and down. "You look hot in my sweatshirt and I must say those jeans make your ass look very good."

"Oh my God!" I shrieked and threw my shoe at him. He laughed and caught the shoe I threw at him, then tossed it back to me. I put on my shoes and went down to the kitchen leaving Peter in his room.

I sorted through the fridge that was filled with numerous types of beers and mixes and finally found some eggs. I cracked them open and started to fry them on the pan. I shrieked loudly when He came up behind me and wrapped his arms around me.

"Jesus, you scared me." I said and leaned into his chest. I could feel him smiling behind me as I leaned into him and planted a soft kiss on my cheek.

"Sorry, babe didn't mean to." He said and planted another kiss on my cheek again.

"So you going to tell me why you have so much beer in your fridge?" I asked and flipped the eggs. He laughed.

"You know Ronnie still lives here don't you?" he asked already knowing the answer. I rolled my eyes I hated Ronnie. He was a perv and always hit on me all the time. He even... forced me to..have sex with him. I still never told Him I was scared to because Ronnie was his younger brother.

"Scar? Did you hear me?" He said waving his hand in front of my face.

"Oh sorry, no." I replied.

"I've got to piss. I'll be right back." He said. I loved how he always told me where he was going. I worried about him. He was always out getting in fights and he came back bloody and beaten. He always claimed they won and I believe him, but I just don't like him fighting. I jumped when his phone started buzzing on the counter.

"Darling! Your phone's ringing!" I yelled.

"Answer it please!" he yelled back. I turned off the burner and picked up his phone and clicked answer.

"Hello?" I asked.

"It's done. Caleb's dead." I gasped and dropped His phone. Caleb? Maybe it's not my Caleb. It's got to be a different one.

"Scarlett are you okay? Who was it?" He asked and picked up his phone and set it on the counter. He took a step towards me and I took a step back. "Scar?"

"You had Caleb killed. How could you?" I asked tears had finally busted through and were pouring out of my eyes.

"Scar, wait." He tugged on my arm to turn me around as I turned around to leave.

"For what?! You killed my brother's best friend who's known me since I was born!" I yelled through my sobs.

"It's not like that! I didn't mean for you to find out like that!" he yelled back.

"So finding out another way would make killing him better than it is now?!" I sobbed and asked completely enraged.

"No, but I just think that I should've told you! You know he wasn't innocent in this either!" He yelled inches away from my face.

"You're right he's not innocent, but he had his little brother and sister to look after! Now they're in the foster system because their parents are dead and they have no one else! Caleb did what he had to do to support his family! You do it for fun!" I spat in his face.

"You're right. He did have a family, but all I have is you and a drunk of a brother who happens to be younger than me. His gang threatened to kill you, what did you expect me to do?" He yelled back.

"Be reasonable! Kill someone else or something that wouldn't hurt me, dammit! I try so hard for you and you just constantly hurt me! I'm done!" I yelled trying to end this argument.

I turned around to leave, but He grabbed my arm and spun me around. I felt a sting on my cheek and it grew hot within seconds. I was stunned and my head was spinning. Everything I saw was a blur and it took a minute for me to realize He had slapped me. I don't know why I was shocked he'd done it before. I was just lead on to believe he was a good guy because he treated me like I was special. It hurt knowing I was just a pawn in his little game. Before I realized that I was running I was out the door and down the street dialing my brother's number.

"Scarlett! Where are you are you hurt?" My brother yelled worriedly through the phone.

"He...hit..me." Was what I said before I felt a knife in my back and a hand over my mouth to stifle the scream that rolled off my lips.
