chapter 77

~ ~ ~ RECAP ~ ~ ~

"now i'll ask again. Hunter, what the hell are you doing here" 

"amanda told me where Lizzy was" he shrugs.

"and..?"

he sighs. "and i came to take her back" 

Lizzy's POV.

"come on Liz" hunter holds his hand out to me.

i looked up at harry, him protectively pulling me behind his back. i grip his shirt and i shut my eyes.

this is not happening.

it can't be.

hunter sighs. "please, lizzy. i missed you so much and i need you back. i need to be able to hold you in my arms whenever i want. i need to be able to kiss you whenever i want" 

i feel harry tense and he turns around, wrapping his stong arms firmly around me. "she's not going anywhere with you" he spat.

"harry please. you out of all people should know" hunter pleads.

"what?" my voice doesn't come out very strong.

harry looks down at me with guilty eyes.

"why would you know? and know what?" i ask, my voice cracking slightly.

harry sighs. "i'll tell you later"

"no. tell me now"

he shakes his head and gently rubs my arm with his thumb. "not until he leaves" he motions to hunter.

hunter gives me pleading eyes. "please liz. come home" 

i swallow the lump in my throat and shake my head. 

i push at harry's chest and he unsurely lets go of me.

i walk over to hunter and look him directly in the eyes. 

"i can't trust you. i'm not going anywhere with you" i say.

"i already told you it wasn't me" he pleads.

"then who was it?!"

"i-i don't know" he shakes his head. "but it wasn't me. you need to believe that it wasn't me"

he takes a step towards me and i step back. he sighs and reaches out for my arm. he caresses my arm with his thumb and looks into my eyes. "i don't know who it was, or what happened that night. but i'm guessing it was pretty bad. and i'm sorry but it wasn't me. i was framed. you need to at least believe that"

i swallow hard and shake out of his grip walking back to harry, wrapping my arms around his waist and burrying my head in his chest. "i think it's time for you to go now hunter" i mumble.

he peirces his lips and looks to the ground. when he looks back up he nods his head and turns to exit. 

he shuts the door behind him and i clinge to harry. he rubs up and down my back soothingly.

i pushed away from him and looked him in the eyes. "you have some explaining to do"

~~~

as i sit on his bed, cross legged, he tells me his story.

"hunter is your cousin!?" 

he sighs and nods. "afraid so"

"why the hell didn't he tell me!?.. why didn't amanda tell me!? she knows how much i am in love with one direction and she forgot to mention that she is harry freaking styles' cousin!- i mean your cousin.. sorry. mini fangirl moment" i freak.
