It takes two (Harry styles)

chapter 77

Riley's P.O.V.

Harry went out last night, he hasn't come home yet and there is a rumor that he went to see Lexi. is he cheating on me. my thoughts were interrupted when he walked in the door.

he sat down and started working on paperwork without saying a word to me.

"Harry I just-" I struggled for the words to say to him. I hadn't wanted to bring up the argument again but it wasn't leaving my head. "I just need to know the truth. Did you or did you not go to see your ex girlfriend last night?"

Harry raised his head from the paper work he was working on and his eyes flashed with anger.

"What?" He asked.

"I need to know." I said, crossing my arms over my chest.

"No." He said. "Riley, no I didn't. Jesus, what the hell?!" He stood up from his spot and tossed the paper onto the ground.

I felt my throat tighten at his outburst but stood my ground.

"I don't mean to not trust you but-"

"But what?! Do you have that low of an opinion of me that you have to question whether I would cheat on your or not?!" His voice was outraged and his eyes burned as he looked at me.

His breathing was rough and his fists were balled at his sides. I felt my eyes sting a bit but I didn't want to cry so I turned around, not facing him.

"God, this is so stupid. I'm leaving." He said and I heard him walking toward the door.

I didn't bother looking at him as I heard the door open and close without another word from either of us. I sniffled as I felt a tear fall down my face and heard him start his car. He drove down the driveway and I watched him speed away.

I sighed and sat down, feeling crushed and hoping he'd come back soon so we could talk it out.

but knowing him he won't be back for a while. I wanna cut. but he will notice. I'll cover them up with bracelets. a voice in my head told me to cut. I kept telling myself no. the voice won. I ran into Harry's bathroom since I threw all my razors away. I looked in the shower till my eyes landed on it. I took it out and broke one off.

I put the blade in between my thumb and index finger. I slowly dragged the blade across my wrist making a straight line. I made 5 new cuts till I was done. I rinsed them off and put my bracelets over them. I went down to the kitchen. I stood by the sink and looked out the window. a tear slowly rolled down my face. I collapsed to the ground as tears freely rolled down my face. that's how I fell asleep.

I woke up and looked around me and saw I was still on the ground. I looked to my right and saw Harry standing there at the fridge. he just left me here. he looked at me and walked right past me. what an asshole. I got up and went and say next to him on the couch. as soon as he saw me is eyes went to my wrists. I looked down and saw that the bracelets were still covering them.

"Riley, the only time you wear bracelets is when-" he cut himself off. "let me see your wrists." I shook my head no. he grabbed my wrists and started to take the bracelets off. I didn't bother to restrain against him.

he finally took enough off where the cuts were clearly in view. he was staring at them. I looked away not wanting to see his reaction. he let to of my wrist and walked out the door. let's go get the razor again.

after....

I now had 5 new cuts in my wrist and hips.

I threw the blade away and put more bracelets on to hide the new ones. I made my way downstairs and sat on the couch. I winced as the cuts on my hips stung. I put on decidable me 2.
