Saved

Chapter 3

I am taken back by his confession. "Harry." I mutter, looking up at him. "We can't.. Be together.. I... have a boyfriend." I lie to him. "Oh.." He says, walking out the door. "Bye." He says, closing the door. I stare at the door for a second. I stare at the couch, then I decide to try to talk to him.

I get to his house, and I knock on the door. "Who is it?" He asks.

"It's me."

"Savannah go away, please." I hear sadness in his voice. I know this is rude, but I walk through the door, and he jumps off the couch.

"Wow. I can't believe you just did that." He says, a new tear falling down his face. He looked awful. He changed into pajama pants, and was wearing the same white tee shirt I saw him in. And his hair. His messy curls were even messier than usual.

I just wanted to kiss him.

What the heck, where did that thought come from.

"We need to talk." I mutter.

He stares at me, then leads me to his room, and sits down on his bed. I sit down on a chair in his room, and he stares at me for a second.

"What do you want." He says, his teeth gritted slightly.

"Harry.. I don't have a boyfriend.. I just don't think we should be together.. We are so different, and I don't know, you seem so strange in ways, and I guess I panicked in the moment. I'm sorry."

He stares at me, stunned, then closes his eyes, and sighs loudly.

"Get out." He mutters.

"I'm sor-"

"I said get out!" He yells, getting off the bed, and slapping me in the face.

I hear him gasp, then I feel his hand on my back.

"Don't touch me!" I say, holding my swelling cheek.

"Please, I'm so sorry." He looks at me with his eyes full of regret, and he's about to cry.

"Don't ever get near me again." I say. I get up, and I run to my house. I feel so awful about that.

Once I reach my house, I hop in the shower, trying to wash off what happened earlier. Wow, that slap mark is swelling. Bad.

I scrub my body, and I put on my Calvin Klein panties, and my Victoria's Secret sweatpants, and a blue tribal crop top. I get nice and cozy on my couch , and I hear a knock.

Harry.

I get up, and look through the peep hole, and I see my sister. I smile, and gasp at the same time. i open it quickly, and hug her.

"Hey Savannah!" She says, kissing my cheek. "Hey Vanessa." I say, smiling. "Nice place!" She says, looking around. "Yep." I say, smiling. "Well, I can only stay for maybe, 5 minutes, I have to have time to get back to Arizona, for work, so let's make it count!" She says, smiling.

We spend those 5 minutes, painting nails, making 3 minute brownies, and catching up.

"It's been great! Well, I'll see you later, sis." She says, kissing my cheek. "Bye." I say, smiling to her.

I go to my room, and fall asleep quickly. I wake up in the middle of the night, and hear noises. I get up, and without thinking, I run to Harry's house. I knock on the door, and it takes a few minutes, and he comes and raises an eyebrow.

"Harry.." I say, out of breath still. "What happened?" He says, leaning on the doorway. "I woke up, and heard noises.. I probably will not be able to fall asleep.. Can I stay here with you?"

I see a little bit of color come to his cheeks, and he lets me in. "I'll go get some pillows and blankets." He says, leading me to the couch. He comes back with a grey blanket, and a comfy pillow. "Thanks." I say, burying my self in his arms. He wraps his arms around me, and I feel him smile.

He goes back into the room, and I collapse onto the couch.

2 hours later.

Still not asleep. I should go knock on Harry's door. I finally knock on his bedroom door, and he answers, yawning. "Yeah?" He says, closing his eyes a little. "I can't sleep.." He smiles at me. "You can stay in here with me, if you want." I smile, and nod.

I mean, come on. He's hot, and he's single. So it's amazing. When he closes the door, I feel relaxed. "Can I make a cot?" I ask. He shakes his head no. "No no no, you sleep up here, I'll make a cot, if you want."

"Just sleep up here with me." I say, laying down on the bed. He comes and lays down next to me. I close my eyes, and I roll over on my side, and my face is buried in his arm. "Harry.." I mutter, repositioning myself.

"Mmm?" He says, not even opening his eyes. "I kind of like you." I say, smiling. His eyes open, and he smiles, and I feel plump lips smash against mine, and I sit up , and pull him up too. His pulls me into his lap, and presses his lips harder against mine. I pull away, and wrap my arms around him. He falls down on the bed, and I lay on top of him. I lean my head back, and laugh. What are we doing?

"Harry, that was a mistake." I say, not even thinking about my words. "No, I didn't mean that.." I say quickly. He looks so hurt, and he rolls over, and his back faces me. I just now realized that he wasn't wearing a shirt, and I see his back muscles tense up. I touch his back, and he flinches. "Harry, I'm sorry." I say, stroking his arm. He flips over on his back, and looks at me.

"I love you Savannah. And if you don't feel the same, that's okay." He says, looking at me. I widen my eyes, and I stare at him. I suddenly feel really queasy, and I fall asleep.
