Good Meets Bad

Chapter 10.

Nina's P.O.V.

I'm pissed. No I'm not pissed, I'm past that. How can Matthew but his hands on me like that? What the hell was he thinking?! He obviously wasn't.

I'm currently in the lobby of the 'jailhouse' and I can't help but pace back and forth. I have no idea what's going to happen to either of them and I'm honestly very worried. I've been here for almost 3 hours. Getting interviewed by campus security and the principle. I feel like I'm in trouble but I absolutely did nothing wrong.

I see Harry coming towards me and a wave of relief flows through my body. He is in handcuffs being escorted by a female security officer towards me and she stops in front of me. He's got dried blood in the corner of his face and a bruise underneath his eye. I take a glance at his knuckles and they are covered with dry blood as well.

"Is he free to go?" I ask the tall bulky man.

"Yes, he won't be expelled or anything. You are a very lucky lady to have him as a boyfriend." She says to me and heat starts to rise only cheeks.

"Oh I'm not-" I get interrupted by Harry who completely says the opposite of what I'm trying to explain to the women.

"Yes she is." He looks at the women with a big grin than looks over at me with the same evil grin.

"Okay well you to have a wonderful day." She says to us then walks over to her desk.

Harry and I walk out of the building and I'm guessing we started walking back to my dorm. It was quiet between us, but not an awkward silence. I finally broke the ice between us and ask him a simple question that would hopefully get a conversation going.

"Are you okay?" I ask him while looking over at my right to look at the side of his left cheek.

"Your asking me, if I'm okay?" He asks, sounding a bit confused.

Of course I was going to ask him of he was alright. He got into a physical altercation with one of my ex-boyfriends. This was all my fault. If I hadn't cheated on Matthew, none of this wouldn't have happened.

"Of course I am. You are hurt really bad and I wanna make your your okay, physically." I say making sure that in my voice, I was stating the obvious.

"I'm not saying that you can't ask me of I'm alright. I'm saying that it's not alright for you to ask me in this kind of situation. I should be the one asking you." He says making his voice as if he was stating the obvious.

I walk in silence, unaware if I should speak or not.

"So are you okay?" He asks sympathy in his voice. It's very gentle and soft.

"Yea I'm fine. A little taken back, but I'm fine." I say to him and I start to fiddle with my fingers.

We start to walk toward my dorm and sudden realization hits me so hard when I enter the dorm. I was abused by the person I thought I loved. I sit on my bed and curled myself into a ball and begin to burst into sobs. Why has he done this to me? I guess I deserve it.

I feel giant hands placed on my shoulders and I'm being pulled into Harry's chest. His scent is so strong. Peppermint and cherry, best combination in the world. I lay on his chest and hold his shirt tight in my hands and sob harder. Thank god Chelsea isn't here to see me.

"It's okay Nina. Just let it all out." He says rubbing my back in a calming manner. This side of Harry I've never seen before. I honestly love it.

"I deserve though, don't I?" I ask looking up at those beautiful green orbs of his.

"No you don't. No one does, especially a women." He says and he tenses up a little towards the ending of his sentence.

"But I cheated on him. After being with him for 2 years. Everything we had, was for nothing." I say and continue to sob in his chest again.
