When i woke up in the morning, my chest was tight with anxiety. i could barely get a full breath out before nervous butterfly's made my stomach squeeze.

"Morning" Harry said quietly. i had a feeling he'd been up for a while, his voice was clear and calm.

"Morning" i breathed, my eyes were staring at the ceiling.

"Today's the day" he said

"are you ready?" i asked curiously

"i don't think I'll ever be ready. i wish- i wish we had more time" he replied

"Is there Anyway i can talk you out of this and suggest running away to Australia?" i asked

i could feel him chuckle "i wish baby, i wish"

i rolled over to face him "if something happens to me, just make sure my body gets sent home to my parents."

His face looked grave " Celena nothing is going to happen to you, do you hear me?"

"i know" i said bringing my hand up to his curls

He closed his eyes and leaned against my hand, which only made my heart squeeze even harder.

"Come here" i muttered, pulling him close

He brought his forehead to mine, his arms snaked around me

"i love you" i mumbled

"i love you more than anything" he replied

We stayed in this position for a while, not staying anything, just remembering each other's warmth.

It was half and hour later before someone knocked on our door.

"Hey guys uh you need to come down" Nialls voice said, he sounded strange.

Harry furrowed his eyebrows and got out of bed, pulling in his sweatpants and sweater, i got up behind him doing the same.

We quickly went downstairs, to see what was going on.

The front door was open and everyone was crowded around outside.

Harry pushed his way through the crowd and clenched his fists. i shoved past him to see what was going on.

Bella lay on the ground, her skin was pale as ice. Blood pooled all around her dead body, large gashed were covering her skin.

Will was on his knees beside her, his face was stone cold, but tears were running down his cheeks.

"They will pay for this" he spit

"Will-" Harry started

"THEY WILL BURN IN HELL" Will screamed

He picked up her small body and carried her to the back of the house, probably to dig a grave next to Arthur's.

i grabbed Harry's clenched fist but he couldn't release his grip.

"Everyone, prepare for tonight" i mumbled

Everyone immediately scattered. Not really knowing what else to do.

i put myself in front of Harry, "we need to go"

His jaw was clenched as tightly as his fists, but he nodded and gingerly grabbed one of my hands, leading us back up stairs.

We all spent the whole day gathering up weapons and doing last minute training, until it was 10:30 PM, we had to be at Willow Forrest which was an hour away but midnight.

Harry and i had been laying down in our room for the past few hours, he hadn't said much since we found Bella's body this morning.

He sighed when he rolled out of bed to get ready, pulling on his black hoodie and splash pants. i wore basically the same thing, shakily pulling my hoodie over my head.

Harry came up behind me and wrapped his arms around my waist, digging his head into my neck.

"Are you scared" He asked

"Scared of losing everyone" i sighed and turned around, resting my head on his shoulder.

"Me too" he mumbled

"5 MINUTES" someone yelled from downstairs

We looked at each other with wide eyes, before connecting our lips together.

We kissed slowly, savouring each others taste. His lips moved against mine, as his tongue lightly flicked against my mouth.

"You are the love of my life" he whispered when we broke apart.

"Don't make me cry" i smiled

"i just want you to remember that" he breathed

"You're mine" i replied.

He pulled me into a tight hug, i ran my hands over his broad back,

"LETS GO PEOPLE" they yelled from downstairs

He pulled back from each other

"Ready?" He asked

"Ready." i confirmed

He took my hand and led us out of the room, we got into the hallway when he stopped and turned to me

"Can you get me a towel from the closet?" He asked

"Sure?" i replied

i walked over to the closet and opened the door, stepping in to get the towel on the top shelf.

Harry appeared in the doorway

" I'm sorry" he mumbled, closing the door.

i ran against it, trying to turn the lock.

No use.

He locked me in.
