"Good morning, beautiful." A sleepy voice whispered in my ear.
I looked up and came face to face with Harry who had extreme bed head. I smiled and yawned. Harry kissed me on the cheek and stood up, "I'm making some chocolate chip pancakes."
"Yum," I said. "My favorite."
Harry walked into the kitchen with his burgundy apron on. He occasionally glanced back to see if I was getting up. "I'm gonna go take a really quick shower." I said as I stood up.
I didn't have to work today so I wasn't in a rush. I trudged upstairs to my bedroom. I walked over to the dresser and pulled out a black tank top, some grey sweatpants, and some clean undergarments. The smell of pancakes was beginning to reach my nose so I knew I needed to take a quick shower. I walked into the bathroom and turned on the shower water. The bathroom began to fill with steam as I stripped off my clothes. I turned on Pandora and sang to the songs being played.
The hot water poured over my small body. Soap fell from my hair and into my eyes. I squeezed them shut and cried out in pain. "Agh!!"
Quickly, I splashed water into my eyes, washing away all the soap. Sudden footsteps outside of the shower caused me to jump. I peaked out of the tan shower curtain to see who the unknown visitor was. A sigh of relief escaped my mouth at the sight of Harry. "Are you okay? I heard you scream." He said with concern.
I giggled, "Yeah. I'm fine. I just got some soap in my eyes."
He smiled and nodded, "Well, I better go make sure the pancakes are fine,"
I blew a kiss as he walked out of the bathroom leaving me and Pandora alone in the bathroom. I sang loudly as the song "Sweater Weather" began playing.
Eventually, I stepped out of the shower and got dressed. I headed downstairs where Harry and some delicious pancakes would be waiting for me. As I stepped into the kitchen, I noticed Harry wasn't there. Coming from the front door, I heard shouting. My feet moved quickly as I went to see what was going on. Right outside the door was an angry looking Steven and in front of him was Harry with his back turned to me. "Babe," I said shyly. "What's going on?"
Harry's head spun around and his eyes stared at me in a bit of fear. His lips mouthed, "go," but I wasn't leaving. I shook my head and walked toward him. Harry watched Steven's every move to make sure he wouldn't hurt me. "Aw. Isn't this cute? Your little girlfriend has come to save you." Steven laughed.
"What do you want?" I growled.
Steven's face became serious once again and he stared at me darkly. "Well," he began. " I thought we had things figured out, but apparently we don't."
"What are you talking about?" I groaned.
Steven's eyes shot to Harry, "Your little boyfriend here was doing a little something with my girlfriend last night. One of my friends caught Harry kissing my girl in an alley around one this morning."
I looked at Steven in disbelief, "Harry would never do that."
Harry looked down at the ground and cleared his throat. "Right Harry?" I said with tears pricking my eyes.
Harry refused to look at me, "No, Alyssa. It's true."
I couldn't hold the tears back anymore. "I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU WOULD DO THAT TO ME!" I choked out. "I THOUGHT YOU LOVED ME!"
Steven seemed more furious than me. He lunged forward and knocked Harry to the ground. His fists slammed into Harry's face as he held him down. I screamed in horror as blood began pouring from Harry's nose. "Stop!" I yelled. "Please! Stop it now!"
I grabbed Steven's arm right before it could slam into Harry's face once more. He turned toward me in anger, "You little-"
He was cut off by Harry's fist slamming into his stomach. Steven gasped for air as he held his stomach in pain. Harry stood up and wiped away some blood with his hand. "Leave here now!" I shouted at Steven.
He stood up and left in defeat. Now, I was left with Harry who was completely beat up just like my heart. I shut the front door and sighed as tears fell from my eyes. "Harry," I whispered.
His sad eyes looked at me, "Listen. I'm really sorry. I love you. I really do. But I also love Lindsey."
"You never loved me," I cried out. "I'm just so done! First, you were acting really weird around me and you were leaving for long periods of time. Now, I find out that you were cheating on me too?"
Tears were falling like a waterfall now. Before Harry could say anything, I stomped up to my room.
After about ten minutes, Harry came into the room with his face cleaned up. "What are you doing?" He asked.
I turned to face him as I held two black suitcases in my hands. "I'm leaving."
He shook his head, "Where will you go?"
"I can go live with Megan until I can find my own place. I already called her and she said it's fine." I said.
Harry grabbed my arm as I stepped by him, "Please-"
"No!" I shouted. "Leave me alone. I'm not going to stay with some lying, cheating, jerk!"
He released my arm and sighed, "Fine."
I turned around and took one last look at him before I left. Megan was waiting for me in her car. Harry stood at the front door and watched me as I loaded my stuff into the trunk of Megan's car. "Good-bye," he said sadly.
"Bye."
