Don't Let Me Go {My Immortal Series Book 2}

Chapter One

Chapter One

Harry POV

I bolted up out of the bed as fast as I could, taking a deep breath and scaring myself because of how fast I actually got up. The burning feeling was gone, the pricking, it was all gone, like it never happened. Blinking a few times, my vision became clearer, so much clearer than I remember. I jumped a little, hearing a heartbeat but I’m pretty sure it was only my own. I didn’t know what happened. All I knew was that I was out with Niall and Andy and then I blacked out.

Andy.

I needed to see her, touch her, something. All the feelings of her rushed back to me. Actually stronger than ever. It was like I had to see her, right here and right now. Problem was, I didn’t know where I was or how I got here.

“He’s here,” I heard Andy’s voice.

Who’s here? And who was she talking to? I heard some footsteps and I began to panic. Where was i?

“Don’t be scared dad. It’s okay,” I heard her voice again.

So Niall was here?

I heard them approaching the door, someone’s hand reaching for the doorknob. I quickly grabbed it before they had the chance, scaring myself once again because of how fast I was going. Seriously, what was happening?

I hid in the corner, out of sight of both of them.

I could feel every emotion in the room, fear, overwhelm, confusion; I could feel it all and I knew it was coming from Niall.

“Dad, I want you to meet someone. This is Anne.”

What I smelt, I could never explain before. It was a mixture of strawberries and champagne, pineapple and wine, sweet yet tangy at the same time. It was something I never smelt before but I felt protective over it for some reason, like I had to keep it safe, like I had to protect it with my life whatever it was.

“Niall,” I forced myself to say as I peeked around the corner.

Once he turned around, I smiled at him, seeing my best friend like it was the first time ever. It was clearer, so it was kind of like seeing him all over again. He smiled back at me, coming in for a hug. I hugged him back, a little bit harder than normal, but he was immortal. Not like a hug could kill him.

“It’s been awhile,” he said as he rubbed the back of his neck.

“Has it,” I answered confused. “It feels like it’s been a day.”

He shook his head.

“You’ve been under for about 3 months.”

My eyes widened as realization hit me. I was one of those. The burning, the speed, it all makes sense now. I was- I couldn’t even say the word, couldn’t even think of it.

“How did I become… this?”

“I had a little help with it. Didn’t think it would work. You were too far gone. But obviously it worked well. What did you feel?”

“Burning, fire, the works. I felt like shit,” I explained as I pushed my hair out of my face.

I looked past Niall at Andy, who caught my eye. I smiled at her, like it was the first time I was seeing her. And then the smell hit me again and I looked into Andy’s arms. It was a small baby.

“Who’s that?”

He smiled at me.

“That’s your daughter Harry. You’re a father now.”
