Harry's P.O.V.

I picked Sapphire up bridal style heading to my room. I placed her on my bed and pulled the duvet over her providing her with warmth. I shut the window trying to keep the cold breeze away from her.

Her blonde ringlets were all over her face and beads of sweat was running down her face. I looked at her confused but shook it off thinking that she was hot so I pulled the duvet off of her and opened the window slightly.

I walked out of the room looking at her one more time before exiting and pulled out my phone from my pocket. It read 6:30, I began to make my way out of the front door grabbing a jacket in the process and looked in the mirror and nodding thinking I looked presentable. It didn't really matter if I looked presentable or not for what I'm about to do but I still like to make sure I look nice.

I was almost out the door until I heard someone shout my name frantically. I turned around and didn't hear it again so I thought it was just in my head until I heard my name being called again.

I went into my room to see Sapphire awake with tears rolling down her rosy cheeks. She kept screaming my name until she saw that I was with her.

"What's wrong, love?" I asked sitting on the bed wrapping her in my muscular arms.

She didn't respond but instead cried into my jacket and hugged me tightly. I tried to comfort her and decided it was better if I didn't ask any questions and just let her cry onto my shoulder.

I rubbed her back comfortably and she sniffled and looked up at me. Her eyes were bloodshot and her bottom lip was quivering. She pulled away from me and looked at me sitting adjacent from me.

"I had a terrible dream Harry."

"What was it about?" I ask swinging my arm back over her shoulder rubbing her arm and she looked back up at me crying more.

"There was this lady who looked just like me and I don't know why but I felt attached to her. This man started to hit her violently and then did the same to me. You ran in the room and started to beat him up but he threw you against the wall knocking you out. He took out a knife from his pocket and he murdered you. H-he murdered you Harry, then he killed the lady and then he k-killed me." She hugged me and rested her head onto my chest.

I widened my eyes and hugged her hoping that she'll get better and realize that this was just a dream and that'll it never happen in real life.

"It was so real, that it was scary. I don't want you to get killed Harry. I know I just met you, but I care about you, a lot. If that were to ever happen I don't know what I would do. You were the one that was there when I had no one and I love you for that Harry." She smiled up at me and kissed my cheek lightly.

"I love you too, like a sister though," I responded and I hoped that she didn't have any feelings for me because if she did then that'll just be extremely awkward.

"Same, but like a brother. If I actually had feelings for you, that'll be so disgusting." She chuckled and pushed me away lightly. I laughed along with her and I took out my phone checking the time. I widened my eyes and saw that it was 7:00

"What's wrong?" She asked worriedly.

"See you later. I'll be back," I said hurriedly and kissed her on her forehead and hugged her tightly.

"Be safe," she responded while I was walking out the door.

I ran out of my flat and went to the parking lot. I opened the door in a haste and got into my Range Rover. I pulled out of the parking lot and onto the road going well above the speed limit.
