- Prologue -
"All he wanted was to protect me. He didn't mean for this to happen," I whisper, closing my eyes and pressing the phone to my ear.
The person on the other line scoffs, then mumbles a string of curse words.
I let myself sink down onto the couch, suddenly feeling utterly exhausted.
"He never wanted to protect you. He pretended to be gone that day so he could kill-"
My head snaps up. "Harry didn't kill anybody," I defend.
Maybe I'm trying to convince myself as well . . . as much as I like Harry and want to keep him safe, somehow I feel there's something wrong here.
"You're kidding yourself. The police found proof that it was him who killed her!"
I stand up again, pulling my hair in frustration. The very hair that Harry had touched. The hair that Harry wanted to see in its natural color.
Harry. I shiver involuntarily.
"That's not true."
There's a pause between us.
"I don't know where he is," I admit, rubbing my throbbing temples.
The man on the other line groans loudly.
"Shit, Bethany."
I sigh. "I'm sorry. He got upset over something and he left-"
"Never mind that. We'll figure it out, okay? I'll find Harry," the voice says quietly, almost softly.
I nod, even though I know he can't see it.
"Okay."
Suddenly, the door behind me bursts open.
I whirl around, dropping the phone in shock at the sight before my eyes.
I have no idea where this story is going to go so if you like it comment and hold on for the ride ;)
PICTURE ABOVE IS Bethany Carol :)
