Chapter 13

Ella's POV

As I began to wake up, I snuggled untitled the covers for warmth and suddenly recognised an unusual smell that my senses weren't used to.

Quickly sitting up, my eyes snapped open and I realised that I was sat in a strangers bed, in a place I never knew of. Tears began to quickly fall down my cheeks out of fear and I began to panic.

As I cried, I heard a stomping of quick feet that I presumed were coming up the stairs. Suddenly the door burst open and a masculine fighter appears in the door. I couldn't tell who it was though, as my eyes had become blurry from the tears that filled them.

I didn't care at that moment, as he briskly walked over to me and wrapped his arms around my petite frame. I did nothing but grip onto his white t-shirt and cried into his shoulder.

Rubbing my back to keep me calm, I breathed in and recognised the smell and took a step back and looked up into his eyes.

"Why am I here Harry?" I asked him, my voice cracking slightly from the shock I was dealing with.

"You passed out and you didn't look great so I brought you back here and let you sleep the night" he replied. I couldn't believe this! I had slept at my bully's house and I had let him!

He would now see me as well and feeble and use this to target me even more. I suddenly had a thought though, I had to be at school and hand in some work then I could come home as I had finished by lessons for the week.

"I need to go to school Harry, and it's almost time to be there, so I'll be going.....thanks" I said

"It's okay I need to as well so I'll take you," he replied

"Oh it's okay," I said a little too quickly. I didn't want people to relate him with me and didn't want to be out in a vulnerable position with him again.

"Ella lets just go, Im not letting you walk on your own,come on" he said as he pulled me towards the door towards the stairs.

"Okay, but I don't have any clothes so can I just go home" I said.

"No,you can just borrow one of my shirts and jumpers and put them over your jeans" he said. I was slightly disappointed in this, but couldn't do anything so I nodded and thanked him as he passed me some clothes.

After changing in the bathroom down the hall, we stepped into the car, and began the journey to school.
