*****
Recap of 39:

"Hello?" Harry is as unaware as a deer in the headlights only I'm the deer thats been ran over and thrown so far off guard I don't know where to even begin.

With my eyes peeled to the two people I was never expecting to see again.

The only thing I can manage to speak is a dumbfounded hello causing a third pair of eyes to draw upon me.
*****

Harry POV:

Song: Say Something: A Great Big World

"I can explain."

The way Whitney's eyes draw to mine force a deep breath in. The look in them that stares back at me makes me wish I could disappear. Erase everything until it was just her and I.

But it was so much more then that.

And god have I fucked up.

"What are you doing?" Maddz speaks to me knowing fair well Whitney cannot. Her lips are pressed together as she looks between me and Julie then back to the ground unable to meet Andy's gaze.

"Looks like your in some deep shit," Julie sneers laughing at the situation.

"Whit can I talk to you? Alone?" I lowly question while shuffling my hands into my pockets. I want it to be just us. Before Julie can ignite the bomb thats been planted for so long. I know it's going to errupt any second if I don't get her the hell out of here. I just don't know how to stop it. That smirk on her face tells me she won't let me but I know I have to try.

My hand reaches for Whitney's arm when another slams against mine and pulls it back.

"What the hell?" I snarl tossing Andy's grip off mine.

"Leave her alone, shes scared." He sounds almost concerned but I know its just all a facade.

I laugh at the irony, "scared of you-"

"Why are they here?"

My eyes drop as her question is pointed to me without as much as a single glance up from the paved tar lot.

"Look like Harwy is keeping secwets from his girl." Julie mocks in a childish tone.

My fingers lace through my hair and I feel three pairs of eyes draw upon mine.

"Harry?" Whitney's voice cracks before Maddz steps in.

"Someone better start talking here. Now."

"Go on," Julie nudges mockingly, "tell her how you fucked me Harry."

The rage that boils is equalizized with a different emotion as I remember Whitney stands to my left. I don't have to look to know the expression she wears is anything but good.

Whitney POV:

The sentence she speaks continues to replay through my mind as I am conflicted whether or not to give into what she wanted, to get a reaction of me. But then there's this other part scritinizing every last detail to try to determine if it's even a possibily.

"Julie this isn't the time to make up shit." Andy remarks harshly.

"I'm not making it up," I look up to see the toss of her squinted blue eyes like water snakes.

"Is it true?" My voice is small as I turn to face Harry, his eyes dance across mine without finding focus.

"It was a long time ago. Before we were even together. A mistake, a big fucking mistake that meant nothing."

I absorb his words searching around for them to be confirmed.

"Tsk tsk. New years eve wasn't too long ago now Harry." Julie says wearing the biggest smirk.

That night holds so much meaning, and in an instant it is tarnished with their hazy encounter.

"Is that what this is about?" I cirlce around me. "What are you doing here with, them, of all people Harry?" He has to know how much it hurts to see the two people I despise the most in the world with the man who I thought had me all this time. I feel let down, I feel lied to, I feel utterly exhausted.

"I should go." My first instinct is to run, then again it always is.

"Babe don't be mad-"

I signal my hand for him to stop, I don't know what to think. On one hand I still feel like I only know half the story, on the other as much as it changes the way I view that night in my mind I can't be mad. He wasn't mine then. He was free to do and fuck whoever he wanted even if that meant-

"How could you? You knew how much I liked him. How upset I was when he left me." I force my rage to Julie.

"God it's always about you isn't it?" Julie rolls her eyes crossing her arms in annoyance.

"You know I thought we would fix things. I believed this was all Andy trapping you into his plan but the whole time you were the one doing it on your own. I don't care what bitches think about me. And that's all you will ever be to me anymore."

"You think your some fucking damsel. Harry doesn't love you. Get that through your thick skull. For fucks sake Whitney your so blind you can't even see he's the reason for all of your problems."

"'Oh poor me I can't eat. Oh poor me I can't go a week without Harry. Oh poor me in an alley-"

"Don't you fucking go there." Harry's voice is harsh and clipped.

The stare between them holds so much tension it can be broken with a flicker but Julie rages on.

"You picked the wrong side. You never even would have been in that alley if it wasn't for Harry."

Andy jerks Julie's arm back but she shakes her head at him.

"God Andy even you're so fucking afraid of him. For what?"

"I think Whitney here should know Harry was the one who put you up to it in the first place, don't you?"

My head shakes frantically, "No. What are you talking about?"

"Harry here is so fucking jealous. He couldn't accept that you and Andy had ended things. He had to be sure you would hate him."

"Andy had to do something that would make you never want to be with him again. You're so damn nieve. Andy wouldn't hurt a fucking fly," her laugh makes my skin crawl, the satisfaction she gets from revealing what has been brushed beyond the surface for so long.

"It was all Harry's idea. Every fucking part."

Before I can let the tears fill my eyes they find Andy's, subdued with a small nod before I take off to his vehicle at the end of the lot.

I may be leaving here with unanswered questions but I don't trust Harry to fill in the blanks.

So I choose the person I least expected to ever see again, ignoring Maddz and Harry's shouts from behind me for theres no changing my mind at this point.

I'm going with Andy.
