Autumns POV;

A loud vibration woke me up from my sleep, as I sat up I saw my phone vibrating beside me on my desktop. I quickly picked it up and a answered it. "Hello?" There was silence on the phone and as I checked the phone, I realised that it was from an unknown number. I stayed in bed for an extra few minutes to see if the unknown number would ring me back. After five minutes of waiting I soon realised that the number wasn't going to ring me back. I slowly got out of bed and pulled my hoodie over me as I made my way to the kitchen. Once I was near the kitchen there was a knock on my front door. I realised that it was probably Hazel as she had left stuff here, but a little bit of me was hoping that it was Harry. As I was walking to open the door, a shiver crept through my body but I quickly shook it off. I was being silly, it was Hazel, it had to be Hazel.

I opened the door, ready to greet Hazel, but instead of Hazel standing there it was Jake. I quickly pushed the door shut but he was faster and pushed it back open. I stepped back.

"Get out." I stuttered pointing my finger to the door, as I took steps back further away from Jake.

"I'll leave once you tell me, what you said to Harry." He snarled stepping closer to me.

"I didn't say anything to Harry." I felt the back against my wall and I realised that I was now stuck. "Don't come near me Jake."

He pinned his hands on either side of my head. "Tell me what you said to Harry. I'm not leaving until you do."

I placed my hands on his chest and pushed him, but he didn't budge. "Get away from me Jake." I hated how weak my voice sounded, tears already started to fall down my cheek.

Jake grabbed both of my hands and held them tightly. I winced in pain and snatched my hands away from him. "I won't tell you again Autumn. Tell me what you told Harry." He snarled pushing me harshly against the wall. My head hit the back of the wall roughly, and I realised that I had no way from escaping this monster in front of me.

"I don't have to tell you anything. You're nothing but a monster and you should be rotting in jail." I spat at him, feeling the anger rise up inside of me. I was not going to let Jake scare me anymore, he was nothing but a monster and I wasn't going to let him get away for what he did to me.

He raised his hand, but before his hand touched my cheek I ducked quickly. His hand made impact in the wall roughly and I slipped past him and began to ran. I knew that he was behind me, as I heard his footsteps quicken up behind me. I wasn't going to look back because if I did I knew that I would fall and that Jake would actually catch me. I quickened my pace, I didn't want Jake to catch me, and I wasn't going to let him catch me. I looked over my shoulder slightly to see if Jake was still behind me, and realised that he wasn't there anymore. I stopped and looked around, trying to find where he was hiding. I turned around and felt myself whack into someone. I quickly stepped back thinking it was Jake, but when I looked up I realised that it was Harry.

"Autumn? Are you okay?" He questioned stepping closer to me.

Jakes words echoed in my head as I looked around expecting to see him lurking somewhere near.

My head told me to tell Harry what had happened with Jake, but I decided against it and nodded my head hoping that he wasn't going to ask again. I needed to get away from Harry, I needed to.

"You're not okay Autumn." He tilted my chin up with his finger, I kept my eyes down from his intense stare. I knew that if I looked up to Harry's stare I'd crumble and tell him everything.

"I'm sorry Harry, but I really have to go." I told him stepping back from him. I turned around to leave but his hand grabbed my wrist as he tugged me back gently.

"Let me walk you back, it's getting dark." I was going to insist that there was no point, but I knew that if I told him he would probably just follow me back to make sure that I got home okay.

"Okay, fine." I turned away from him once again, and walked away from him. Harry soon appeared by my side and we both walked back to my apartment. I couldn't help but keep my eyes peeled for Jake.

I felt a warm arm wrap around my shoulders and pull me closer to them. I looked up at Harry and saw him smiling down at me. I returned the smile, I liked Harry. Harry had done nothing to me. I couldn't push him away he was only trying to help.

After five minutes my apartment came into sight. Me and Harry didn't talk on the way, his arm was still wrapped securely around my shoulders. I felt safe with Harry's arm around my shoulder, it was a feeling of protection and care, I couldn't help but feel disappointed when we got to my apartment door. Harry started to turn around and walk away from my apartment door.

"Harry."

He turned around and looked at me, stepping closer.

"Do you want to come in for a while?" I questioned opening the door. I prayed that Harry would say yes, I didn't want to go back into the apartment by myself.

"Sure, I'll stay for a while." He said smiling as he walked through the door to my apartment.
