Rose.

I felt myself waking up and my ears being filled with the sound of my ringtone. I roll over to the table on the bedside and grab the phone to look at the caller ID.

"Hello?"

"Oh my God, did you hear what happened to Nathan?" It was a very freaked out Scarlet on the line.

"No what happened?" I asked more attentive. I look over and I don't see Harry, I only see traces of him.

"He was stabbed, he's in the hospital now."

"Oh my gosh."

"They said he was close to death but they were able to save him."

I stayed quiet for a bit. I was debating on whether to visit him or not.
"Are you going to visit him?"

"I don't know."

"I know he's in a vulnerable state right now but as a friend I wouldn't suggest you go, he wasn't a good boyfriend and I don't think I need to go into details."

"Fine I won't go."

With my final words I hang up and walk out of the room. I land downstairs and walk into the living room when I hear the television.

"Mr. Nathan Richardson was found stabbed five times in his house early Thursday morning..." the news reporter says as she stands in front of his house that was wrapped with police tape.

I saw Harry standing and focusing on the television with crossed arms and a hard glare.

"Good morning." I say. He turns to look at me with the same look and responds.

"Good morning." Then turns back to the television.

"What happened?"
I asked as I sat down on the couch.

"Nathan was stabbed and they don't have any clue on who did it." He informs me then sits down next to me.

Our eyes continued to stay glued on the television screen until Harry's phone rings.

"I'll be right back." He tells me as he looks at the phone in confusion before getting up and leaving the room.

Harry

"What do you want?"

"I want to know what the hell you did?!" Liam yells on the line.

"What are you talking about?" I ask trying to play innocent.

"You did it Harry, you attacked Nathan."

"So what, he had it coming." Knowing Liam by now he was probably shaking his head.

"We didn't have a back up plan if shit hits the fan. You should've told us what you're going to do."

"I was."

"When? After you finally killed him?"

"Liam, it's done and finished, it was a warning. Everything is perfectly fine, this isn't my first rodeo."
I say and hung up the phone but before I could walk back into the living room my phone rang again.

"What?!"

"Harry?"
It was Louis.
"What is it?" I ask toning my voice down a bit.

"I know what you did to Nathan, but..I'm not upset, I knew you were gonna do something to him. But that isn't why I called I just hope that your mind hasn't just been focused on Nathan because you do have someone else you need to take care of."

I think for a minute on who.
Then it comes to mind.
"Mr. Rodgers, the old man." I remember.

"Yeah. Well I've seen him around town talking with the enemy. This isn't gonna go well."

"Shit." I breath out and rub my temple.

"Do you have any clue what to do?"

"No, no I don't."

Rose.

It's been a few days since I've last seen Harry. I've tried calling and texting him but he's seemed really detached so I decided to go to his house after work and check up on him.
The door opens and I see a very happy and smiley Harry. That's when I saw another girl in the back with the same expression.

"Oh hey baby." He runs a hand through his hair as he sighs.

"Hi." I respond as my eyes stay put on the girl who was now walking to the livingroom.
"Who's that?"

"That's just my friend."
I move my eyes back to his and I see his smile fade.

"I know what you're thinking. We've been friends since we were kids, so trust me she's just a friend." He reassures me but I still didn't feel right about it. Harry's hand cups my chin and he pulls us together to make our lips meet.

"You're mine and I'm yours okay?" He whispers as he pushes a piece of hair out of my face.

"Okay." I say and we kiss again.
He backs up and opens the door for me to walk in.

"So why are you here?" Harry asked as we walked into his kitchen. I watch as he opens the fridge looking for something before I answer him.

"I was just stopping by, you've seemed unresponsive for the past few days."

"I know and I'm sorry about that, it's been work." I nod understanding how busy he's been.
"So how have you been?" He asks and leans against the island and I do the same.

"I've been fine, but did you know that Nathan is getting out of the hospital tomorrow?" He was about to take a bite of the apple in his hand but pauses right before his teeth sink into the fruit. He pulls it away slowly and his brows furrow.
"He is?"

"Yeah, he's getting out a lot sooner than I thought."

"I hope he knows to be careful and watch every move he makes." His eyes narrow and turn dark a bit.

"Harry?!" I hear a high pitch laugh coming closer to us.
"Oh there you are." It obviously wasn't a girl, it was a woman. Someone closer to Harry's age.

"What is it?" I saw Harry grow a smile as soon as he laid eyes on her. She walks over to him and shows him something on her phone, then they burst with laughter.

"Who are you?" The lady askes interested on who I was.

"Oh this is Rose, my girlfriend. Rose, this is Eliana, my friend." She holds out her hand and we shake.

"You look very young. How old?"

"Eighteen." Her eyes widen a tad and they switch to Harry.
"Oh." Then Harry's lips turn into a smirk.

"Into the young ones I see."

"Well if you put it that way it makes me sound like a creep." He says as he slowly walks around the island to hug me from behind.
"She may be young, but her mind is very mature." He says and kisses my temple. As Harry's eyes were fixed on me, Eliana's eyes were too but they were filled with anger.

"I should get going." I say pulling myself out of Harry's grip. He pouts but understood why I had to leave. He walks me to the door but I stop him.
"Harry I don't feel right with Eliana."

"She's a nice person and don't worry she was just visiting town she's leaving in a few days." His lips attach to mine one last time before he opens the door.
