Chapter 25

Cally~

"B-But, he's in jail. This can't happen! What if he finds us?" My emotions are bouncing off the walls and tears are streaming down my face. Harry looks over every once in a while but he's mainly focusing on the road.

"I don't know, sweety. But what I do know is that we need to get away from here. Get as far as we can with our money and run." My mouth had gone dry and I stopped crying. Does she really mean this? Or is she just saying these things because of her emotional state?

"Mom, you're crazy! We can't leave. I've only got a few months of school left and I haven't even applied for college! And, what about Niall and all my friends? I can't just leave them." I feel bad for not including Harry's name but I don't care, he doesn't deserve it. And oh my gosh, I forgot all about college! But I can't think about that now.

"Honey, we have to. I got a call from the police saying that we need to stay under low profile since our past with him. They offered police escorts and guards but I don't want that or any of this shit! We need to leave. Get straight home and when you get here pack your stuff." She ended the phone call before I could protest.

I felt like throwing it out the window but instead I curled up in a ball and forced myself not to cry. Just like the time Harry was driving me home from the hospital.

It's funny how two people who hate eachother create a bond even over time. But that's crazy, I'll never like or even love Harry!

"You could stay at my place." Harry interrupted the silence.

"What? What are you talking about?" I uncurled from my ball and gave him my full attention.

"Are you deaf or something? I said you could stay at my place instead of moving." He shrugged and pulled into my driveway. I unbuckled my seatbelt but stayed inside his car, not wanting to go inside my house.

"I don't know about that..." My voice cracked at the end and I put a hand over my mouth. This can't be happening. I can't leave my hometown just because of my crazed alcoholic dad!

"Sure you do! C'mon, let's go talk to your mom." He unbuckled his seatbelt as well and opened his car door. I still denied to get out of the warm car. Harry came to the passenger's side and opened the door for me. He held out a hand and I stared at it for a second before clasping onto it with all my might.

We reached my door and I unlocked it with my key. It's weird because Harry was still holding my hand but I avoided it and opened the front door.

"Did you tell him?" My mother immediately asked as soon as I walked in.

"Well, he was already driving me home and..."

"And I was thinking that she could stay with me." Harry interrupted. My mother's face was emotionless but her eyes were filled with fear. She was scared out of her mind!

"While I look for a different place to stay?" She finished. He nodded as response and held a tighter grip onto my hand. I looked down at our hands and noticed that they molded perfectly together, even though his big hands were covering all of my hand.

I went back to my mom and she was staring at our hands as well.

"Who are you dating, Cally? It seems
As if you're dating Niall and Harry at the same time!"

"I'm dating N..."

"Me. She's dating me. And I want to protect her. No, I will protect her. Anything that comes her way will have to go through me first." My mouth went agape at Harry's remark.

"Okay, I approve. But, no sex." My face went red and Harry laughed.

"Will do ma'am." I went upstairs to pack while Harry and my mom stayed downstairs talking about the arrangements for us.

I got my suitcase out from under my bed and unzipped it. There were a few shirts and undergarments still left in it from the lack of my unpacking skills. I took my shirts off the hangers they were on and folded them messily into the suitcase along with my jeans. I took a few personal belongings like a few pictures of my family and little knick-knacks I've had since childhood and put them in a seperate bag.

After I was done, I went back downstairs with my suitcase in hand, my extra bag on my shoulder, and two pillows of mine that I can't live without.

"Ready?" Harry's mood has changed from flirty to concerned to caring all in one night. Bipolar much? I gave my mother a kiss she hugged me.

"Harry's a nice boy. I know he'll take good care of you." She whispered into my hair. This had to process through my mind before I made a response.

"I know." I lied. Harry ushered me out of the house and to his car, even though his house is right in front of my soon-to-be old house. We got to his car and we both opened the doors He got inside but I spent one more moment staring at my mother's figure in the doorway. Her hair was up in a very messy ponytail, there were slight black smudge marks on her cheeks indicating she's been crying, and a tissue was in her hand.

I half smiled at her and she returned the favor as she shut the door. I followed Harry's actions and got into his car. Damn, this is the last time I'll be seeing my mother in a long time.

"And this is the room you will be staying in." Harry escorted me into the big room. It was beautiful! It had a king size bed with a canopy against the right wall, a huge window that had a bench you can sit on coning out of the wall, and also a walk in closet to the far left next to another door that I presume is the bathroom.

"Wow." I breathed. I dropped my stuff onto the bed, or should I say my bed, and sat on the bench. I laid my hand flat on the window so my palm came in contact with the cold glass and I instantly relaxed. I stared out into the backyard and saw two ropes hanging down from one of the trees in the large yard with a wooden plank at the bottom. Even though it was covered in snow I would love to swing on it. Just like how my father pushed me on the swings at the park in town.

Harry joined me and enjoyed this view as well. I felt my phone vibrate against my butt and I pulled it out of my pocket. It was a text from Niall.

To Cally:

I love you.

It warmed my heart that he would still text me even after the fight but I ignored it and will text him in the morning. Since my phone was still unlocked I checked the time, it was only 9 pm and I'm bored to death! Good thing I packed a few winter things for outside.

"Harry? Wanna come outside with me?"

"Sure." I searched my suitcase for my winter coat but I couldn't find it! I had to pack everything but that.

"Harry!" I shouted. He walked into the doorway.

"What?" He sounded annoyed but I pushed that aside.

"I forgot my winter coat, can you walk with me to my house."

"No, I have one for you." He walked out and came back a minute later with an oversized heavy coat. He threw it at my feet and walked back out. I just noticed that he had his shirt off. Snap.

I put the coat over my body after I dressed properly and zipped it up. It ended up coming down to my knees but I don't mind. Harry knocked on my door and told me that he was ready.
