Give Me Love (Harry Styles AU)

Chapter 29

I couldn't get any sleep last night. It took hours on the phone to keep Harry from going on a killing spree, and even then I was still worried he would go feral. Other than that, I couldn't sleep myself because I was worried for Amira. What was he planning on doing to her? Was he really that low to hurt Harry's little sister, just to get a point across? I rolled my eyes at my own ignorance. Of course he was Raelynn. 

I laid in bed staring at the ceiling, listening to my dad and Nani cook breakfast and chatter away happily. I was sick to my stomach, knowing my father was feeding this monster. Part of me wanted to march down there and tell them exactly who they were letting into our home, but then the sane rational part of me pushed that thought down. 

After showering and brushing my teeth, I slid on some black leggings and an over sized blue sweat shirt before trying my hair up into a tight messy bun. I sighed exhausted, I just wish Xavier would disappear. What did he get out of ruining people's lives? 

My stomach churned while I was walking down the stairs, hearing the familiar giggle and chuckle of the two evil witches. "Oh my! Raelynn, I didn't think you were ever going to come down!" I rolled my eyes unknowingly to Ezra, who was just so "excited" to see me. 

"We thought we scared you away." I swallowed the lump in my throat, sensing Xavier's double meaning, before Nani sweetly patted the seat next to her. Grabbing my plate of food, I scooted my chair closer to her and she just smiled in return. 

"So, how did you two love birds meet anyway?" Nani spoke up, interested in the fascinating couple. As much as I hated and disgusted the pair, I couldn't help but tune in to the conversation. My heart jumped when Xavier looked at me before smirking, as if he just thought of the greatest idea in the world. He winked at Ezra, who quickly caught on, allowing him to share the tale. 

Xavier leaned back, the entire time his eyes were on me, however this went unnoticed by my father and Nani, "She was young when I first saw her. She didn't notice, but I was always watching her. Admiring her. She was one of the most intriguing people I have ever met. I could see right then the strong and beautiful woman she was destined to become. I always tried to connect with her, but her brother-" He sneered the word, and my body jolted realizing this was no longer a story about him and Ezra, "Her vile brother was so selfish with her. He never let me talk to her, and tried to pick a fight with me whenever I asked him to invite her to one of our gatherings. He was impeccable. He simply did not understand what I saw in her." He paused for a moment, his eyes flickering towards the other faces in the room.

I felt uncomfortable. I felt as if I were going to throw up any minute now. He was sick. He wanted Amira? But in what way? He talked about her as if he wanted her as a companion! I immediately felt sick to my stomach at the thought. Amira was only 16!! 

Xavier leaned forward his face growing softer as he continued the dreadful story, "But then one day, her brother was vulnerable. He left her out in the open to me, like a Christmas present. And I did it." His eyes widened momentarily, before retaking their normal shape. He wasn't looking at me anymore, but just staring into the air at nothing specific. His face wasn't scary looking, and he was looking like he was just now realizing what he did. 

"I got the girl." He spoke in disbelief, before he looked up at me and a cruel smirk began etching across his face. He knew I would put 2 and 2 together. We continued to stare at each other, until Nani released an obnoxious 'awe', clasping her hands together tightly. 

"Aw, it's like a forbidden love story." Xavier's eyes lit up at her comment, before he dazed off once again. 

"Yes. Yes it is." 

I coughed getting everyone's attention, "So where is he now? The brother?" I needed to trip him up somehow. I needed Nani and my dad to see some sort of flaw in this made up world of his. 

Xavier looked up at me with a knowing smile, "In the hospital." I gagged almost throwing up right there at the table. Nani quickly rubbed my back, as I began to breathe heavily. 

"You okay, hun?" Ezra's eyes were full of amusement, and I suddenly found myself wondering how she was wrapped up in all of this. Her green eyes held so much, and for a second they almost looked familiar. I shrugged it off, as I stood at the table. 

"I'm going to head out. I need to visit a friend today." 

"What friend?" My dad spoke to me for the first time since I had got home, and I was nervous in responding to him. Before lying and saying Hazel, I decided honesty was the best way out of this. 

"Harry." To my surprise, Xavier's head snapped up as he looked at me with wide eyes. I couldn't figure out if it was fear and panic that reflected in those orbs. Maybe it was both. But why would he be afraid of Harry? 

"Okay. Be back soon." I gaped at him, not believing that he was actually willingly letting me leave. I smiled excitedly at the fact that he still trusted me despite how I've been absent. I kissed his cheek, and smiled at Nani, sending an evil glare towards Xavier and Ezra in a warning. For some reason, I had a feeling that despite how evil he was, he wouldn't touch my parents. Maybe he actually seen them as friends. I shuddered at the thought before quickly heading out to the car, and driving up the hospital.

Walking in to the hospital room, I smiled upon seeing Harry asleep in bed. His face wasn't pale, and he was his normal healthy tan. He had sweat across his face, clearly from stressing about Amira's disappearance. I sat down next to him, before shaking him slightly. His head turned towards my direction, before he struggled in opening his eyes. His green eyes were red, and he had bags underneath them. 

"God, Harry." I breathed out, rubbing his cheek gently. "We are going to get her back, I promise." He didn't respond, he only stared at me with those dull eyes. They began to water momentarily, before he quickly shut them tight. 

I sighed heavily, before I put my head down resting it on the edge of the bed. I felt myself began to drift off to sleep, before his deep raspy voice spoke up. 

"She's all I have." Keeping my head down, I found his hand and squeezed it, smiling to myself as he squeezed it back. I looked up leaning towards his face where I placed a soft peck on his lips surprising the both of us. 

My heart and I have reached an agreement. "You have me too."
