Who Knew?(Sequel) Book 2

Chapter 2

(Melina's POV)

I don't even know what time it was when this happened, but it did. Harry woke me up.

"Melina." I heard a whisper. I turned over. He poked me several times.

"Melina, please wake up." He continued for a little while and soon I got fed up and laid on my back, rubbing my eyes open, yawning.

"What do you want Harry?" I asked unbelievably tired.

"......" There was a silence from him.

"Harry." I repeated.

"It's-It's nothing, never mind, go back to bed." He stammered. I reached out. And I think grabbed his wrist.

"You woke me up, now tell me what's wrong." I insisted.

"I feel like I'm five years old." He whined. I scooted over patting the bed for him go sit down. The bed dipped and he sighed.

"What happened?" I asked softly, now fully awake.

"Um, I, uh- I had a nightmare." He stuttered.

"Come on." I said, patting my lap.

"What?" He asked.

"You feel five years old, may as well treat you like one." I stated.

"I'm 30 years old." He said humor in his voice.

"Well, you woke me up, may as well carry out the process Harold." I joked back, knowing he hates being called Harold. He sighed.

"I'll crush you." I groaned, "Just come over here god dammit." I whisper yelled. My lap got heavier, and he cuddled into my chest.

"Wanna talk about it?" I asked. I felt him shrug. I looked over at my alarm click and saw it was 3:47 in the morning. May as well stay up.

"I'm 30 years old, cuddling into you like you're my mum." He said. I shrugged, not minding.

"What was the dream about?" I asked softly not wanting to pressure him.

"Prison." He said, not saying anything after. Guess he didn't want to talk about it after all.

I nodded. "Can I stay in here for the rest of the night?" He asked in a small voice.

"Yeah, I have work at like 5:30 so I'll be leaving at 5." I told him.

"5:30 in the morning?" He asked. I hummed in response.

"What time do you get off?"

"Around like 2:30-3:00, depends." I said. I felt him nod against me. He got off my lap and laid down on the bed next to me, putting his head into my chest. I wrapped my arms around him, putting my head over his.

"Thank you." He said, trailing off before his breathing became deep and steady. My eyes soon fell heavy and I couldn't keep them open any longer, I closed my eyes and fell back to sleep, Harry in my arms.

~•~•~•

"Turn that fücking thing off!" I heard Harry groan. I moaned myself not wanting to get up. I opened my eyes and looked straight at the clock.

7:39. SHIT! My eyes widened and I jumped out of bed, running to my closet and pulling out a pair of jeans, and a random top, tying up my sneakers as fast as I could.

"What's wrong?" I heard.

"IM 2 HOURS LATE FOR WORK!" I yelled. I ran into the bathroom, not even bothering with makeup today, and pulling my hair up in a pony tail, not having any time to shower, and brushing my teeth.

"Just calm down", Harry said walking into the bathroom.

I forgot he was shirtless. Before I could start staring at him I focused on making sure I looked somewhat presentable. I was in so much trouble!

"I can't calm down! I'm dead! 2 hours late for work isn't good Harry!" I shouted, I rushed out of the bathroom, not even packing a lunch, or grabbing anything for breakfast. I grabbed my coat and phone, and was about to run out the door, but Harry grabbed me.

"Harry I don't have time for this!" I complained.

"You're going to be even more late without the keys to your car." He said, giving them to me.

"Thanks." I mumbled.

"Wait!" He said running into the kitchen and grabbing a red apple from the fruit basket on the counter. He tossed it to me, and I nodded and ran out the door.

I got into my car, and turned on the ignition. I was driving for about 2 minutes when my phone started ringing.

"Shit." I muttered. I grabbed my phone which was on the passenger set and clicked answer, putting the phone to my ear.

"Ms. Palmieri, where are you?" Asked my boss, clearly annoyed.

"Sorry Sir, I woke up real late this morning, half way there now." I said turning into another street.

"Well hurry up, your new projecte starts today." He said gruffly.

"Alright Sir, be there in about 10 minutes. I promise it won't happen again." He hummed in response and hung up the phone

Why? Why did this have to happen? Never once have I been late for work! If anything I'm always early! I mentally slapped myself.

I pulled into the parking lot, and parked the car quickly before running through the parking lot to the door. I stopped, fixed myself, and walked in calmly.

"Hello Jenny." I said to my receptionist.

"Hello Miss." She smiled. I made my way to my lab room, and saw that the animal was in the cage on the examination table. I stopped in my tracks at the sight of it.

What in sane hell was this thing? It was so weird looking that I can't even describe its features. I shook my head, regaining my composure. I set down my phone on the desk where I fill out the paper work an make notes, along with my keys. I sighed. I got out a needle and test tube, sanitizing the needle. I put down the tube and needle, walking over to the cage, putting on some gloves, an took the weird animal out of its cage, and put it in a collar so it couldn't run away. I also muzzled it, taking precautions.

I sighed, getting the razor to shave some of its fur off, so I could draw the blood, sanitizing the area before sucking the needle in and draw just enough blood to run multiple tests.

'Another normal day' I thought. Or maybe not.....
