I looked up at the traitor who sat next to me and humorously threw my head back in laughter.

Harry eyed me curiously before uncomfortably returning back to fiddling with his fingers.

“You’re serious?”

Suddenly this whole situation wasn’t as funny as I thought it was. He would actually help me get her back?

“Yeah” he said quietly and raised his head slightly to look at me sideways before sighing.

“But you planned this whole thing with Paul, why do you want to help me now?”

My tampering got the better of me as I closely observed his gentle facial expressions for any kind of proof that would back up my thoughts and lead me to not believe him but to my surprise I found nothing but sincerity in his green lit orbs.

“Because I saw the way you look at her, I noticed how your eyes grew soft when you saw her in such a vulnerable state and the way pain took over your senses when she pushed you away. I guess seeing you like that triggered something in me and I just, well I just suppose that I want to give you some happiness, as a brother you know? As a brother who should have supported you through your toughest battles. I just want to make up for all the shit I’ve done to hurt you and for how I caused dad to go against you”

I flinched at the last sentence as memories of my dad filled my brain, brimming my swollen eyes with more unwanted tears.

“I’m sorry”

He repeated his earlier words again, this time with more hesitancy.

“It’s okay, but how exactly do you plan on helping me get her back?”

His weakened face lit up as the words left my mouth and he moved closer to me and unfolded the contract.

“I have an idea”

He smirked evidently and for some reason my mind couldn’t wait to hear his solution.

(THIS IS THE PART WHERE HARRY TELLS NIALL THE PLAN BUT IM NOT GOING TO INCLUDE IT IN THE CHAPTER BECAUSE IM EVIL LIKE THAT HAHA)

I watched carefully as Harry explained his scheme to me and nodded here and there when my approval was needed for him to carry on with his mastermind plan.

Goosebumps erupted all over me and I shuddered at the thought of this actually working.

Once he had finished he peered at me through gleaming eyes and I eagerly shook my head.

“That’s amazing” I breathed as I went over his plan in my head, mentally highlighting the important things.

He grinned in accomplishment and tucked his curls neatly back into the bandanna that was loosely fastened around his head.

“When do we begin?”

“Now”

He smiled at my horrific expression and ushered me off the floor before dusting his self of quickly.

“Just go”

The confidence in his voice electrified through my thoughts giving me a sense of assurance. I nodded and head out through the door.

I looked around for my car but when it seemed to be nowhere in sight the uncertainty I had been feeling a couple of seconds ago, re visited me, this time with full force.

At the sound of heavy footsteps I turned my head to see Harry and Paul approaching me, both chuckling but this time it was different. This time it felt as if Harry was laughing at Paul and not with him.
