Dark (The Past Never Changes)

Chapter 42

Bree's POV.

I came up to the club and anxiously walked inside. I know that I shouldn't be doing this, I mean what Kaylee said was pretty hurtful, but she needs to know that people still care her. That I still care for her. I walk up to the bartender, who has blond hair and green eyes.

"What can I get you beautiful?" He asks.

"I was wondering if you saw a girl walk in. She was wearing a black strapless dress and had dark brown hair about midlength." I explain.

"Yeah, she left with the DJ about an hour ago." He tells me.

"Fuck." I mumble. "Thanks." I smile slightly and head out side. My phone rings and it's Harry.

"Hey babe." I say.

"Hey. Ashton came by, he'll find her. You should come home now." He tells me and I sigh.

"Okay.." I say lowly.

"Don't worry love, it will be okay." He says.

"I know." I sigh again.

"I'll see you in a few." I can tell he's smiling.

"Okay babe. Bye." I say and hang up.

I get in the car and make my way home. Once I'm there, Ashton's car is back I rush inside. As soon as I walk through the door, I'm greeted by Kaylee immediately in a hug.

"I'm sorry I said those things to you Bree. I didn't mean them." She whispers and holds me tighter.

"It's okay, really. I'm just glad you're alright. And what happened with that DJ?" I ask.

"Well I went back to his place, and he kissed me, but I wouldn't kiss back." She says and looks down. "How'd you find out about that anyway?" She asks.

"I went to the bar to look for you. The bartender said you left with the DJ." I explain.

"You wanna know what else?" Ashton says smiling like a little kid.

"What?" I look at him annoyed.

"She told me-" Kaylee cuts him off.

"That I love him." She smiles and I widen my eyes.

"What?!" I almost yell.

"Yeah that's why I left Oscar's house. I couldn't do that to Ashton." She explains.

"Well looks like you've opened up a little now haven't you?" I tease her.

"Shut up." She pushes me and I fall back, but land on Harry. He holds me close to him and kisses my shoulder.

"Alright well we have stuff to talk about. Let's go." Harry says, standing up and pulling me with him.

The butterflies in my tummy grow strong and I start to hesitate going with him. We make it to my room and he closes the door behind him. I don't turn around to look at him, but I can feel him staring at me. Not a glare, but like he's guilty of something. It radiates off his skin and makes me feel uncomfortable.

"So. I-I uh... My family... Ummm." He starts. I turn around to look at him and he's a little sweaty and very nervous.

"Harry." I say softly.

"No, I- uh- well-. Okay my family is having kind of a rough time and I'm worried about them, so I was gonna go back to visit when we first got together but I couldn't just leave you here for who knows how long, and now it's worse and I really need to go back, but I don't wanna lose you, and I really need to be with them for a while." He sighs and I look down.
