My Demons

He is my everything....

After school, Harry and I decided to get something to eat.

"What do you want to eat?" He asks me as we are getting into his car.

"I don't know, surprise me" I say.

"Okay, buckle your seat belt. I have just the perfect place to eat in mind."

He took me to Hardee's. He is perfect, he knew the place that has my favorite food.

"We're here because they serve onion rings, aren't we?" I say

"You said they were your favorite food. I wanted to make you happy, my favorite food always makes me happy."

"Where have you been all my life? You understand me like no one ever has." I say. But as soon as I say it, I blush. Is he going to run because I'm starting to be clingy?

I guess he can see the worry in my face because he says "Well I was in England, but I'm glad that I am here with you now. You think that I'm going to leave you. I can see the fear in your eyes. I can promise you I won't leave. I feel like I was sent to you. Even though I have only known you for a few hours, I feel like I've known you forever. I want to make you happy."

I am thunderstruck, no one has poured their heart out to me.

"I didn't know you felt that way. I'm glad you do. You make me feel complete and that is an amazing feeling. No one has been here for me in awhile. Everyone thinks that I am a disgusting human being just because of what I go through at home. Its been years since someone has been this nice to me. Thank you" I say.

By now I am tearing up and Harry can see that. We're parked in the Hardees parking lot. He takes his hands and place them on either side of my face and says..

"I know that life has not been great for you these past few years, but that is going to change now that I am here. The past is the past. If you dad touches you again, he will pay. You are safe with me and that's all that matters."
I knew then that I had finally been sent a protector. That was the greatest feeling in the world.
