Clean Bandit

Date night gone BAD

I wake up to the sound of my alarm clock going off.
I get up, shower and put on high waisted navy boy shorts and a white v-neck. I straighten my hair and put it in a pony tail and put on my usual make up, foundation and powder, blush and mascara.

"Sam get up, you've already been late to the office twice this week."

"I don't want to get up." She mumbles.

"Get up." I say and go to the kitchen. I make myself some coffee and an English muffin.

After I finish eating, I brush my teeth and leave for the YouTube Space.

"Hi Wren!" Shay Carl says to me.
"Hey Shay, how are you?" I ask him.
"I'm great, say hi to my vlog." He whips out his camera.

"Hello world!" he says, "This is Wren and she works here at YouTube Space, she creates sets and records music, so like this video in her honor, she does so much to help out around here."
"Hi guys!"

"See you later, Wren." He says giving me a wave.

When I get to my studio, I see Shawn Mendes on his phone waiting for me.

"Oh hey Wren, I was wondering if we could record background vocals for my song."
"Oh yeah, here, lemme pull up your file and you can go crazy."

After work, I get home at 3:00. I change into jeans a floral shirt and decide it's about time to clean my room.

I text Sam to see when she'll be home so I know when to start dinner. She works in an office as an editors' assistant so I never know when she'll be home. She replies 5:30-ish.

I vacuum and do my laundry, make my bed and get rid of clutter. I clean my mirror and my bathroom, and empty my trashcan.

By the time I'm done, it's 4:00 so I decide to text Harry.

Wren/ bored :/.....u @ the studio?
Harry/ yeah, I miss you
Wren/ such a flirt
Harry/ you texted me, that's not flirting?
Wren/ I was only bored, ur kinda my last resort.
Harry/ hurtfull. I'm coming over wen im done.
Wren/ Kk don't forget we have a date 2nite.
Harry/ how could I forget?

I start dinner around 5:25. I make garlic chicken, rice and salad.

"Hey boo." Sam walk in, taking off her heels and putting down her purse.
"Hey, Harry's coming over, so put on a shirt?"
"Damn... just kidding Lou's coming over too."
"Ok, glad I over cooked." I chuckle.

"Honey I'm home!" Harry waltzes into my apartment.
"Hi." I peck his lips.

"What are we doing tonight?" he asks me.
"It's a surprise."

"Lou's coming up shortly." Harry tells Sam.
"Ok."

By the time 8:00 rolls around, Harry and I are ready to get away from those to lovey dovey love birds.

"Will you please tell me where we're going?" Harry pleads.
"Nope." I say.

When we get there, a smile plays on Harry's face.

"You little shit, I thought it was going to be this-"
"Yeah ok shutup now." I teased.

We walk into Nando's and get seated.
"So why didn't you tell me we were going to Nando's?"
"We're going somewhere else after."

After we eat, we pay, actually, I pay, and get back into the car and I drive to the beach.

"I know you would appreciate it better if you were a girl, but I thought it would be nice." I say getting out of the car.
"I still like it, as long as you're here." he smiles, taking my hand in his.

We walk on the beach for a while until Harry stops.

"What?"
"I wanna take a picture of us."
"Ok" I chuckle and smile at his phone camera.
"My turn!" I say and whip out my phone. I make a weird face and so does he. Then we take a serious one.

Without any warning, Harry kisses my cheek and takes a picture. I take my phone and peck him on the lips and snap a picture.

We continue walking and I see another person. I ignore it seeing as it's normal to see others on this beach, but when they get closer, I realize it's not just any person.

It's Josh.

"Wren. What are you doing with him?" Josh walks up to me with gritted teeth.
"I can do whatever I want." I retaliate.
"Let's go Wren." Harry says.

I follow him but I'm stopped when I feel my wrists pulled and I'm thrown to the ground. I wince in pain.

"What the hell?! Get the fuck away from her!" Harry yells.
"I suggest you get the fuck away from her, she's mine, and will always be mine." Josh spits.
"How dare you put your hands on a woman, you treated her like shit!"
"Oh? Did she tell you, she cheated, she's a whore, she treated me like shit!"
"Then why do you want her back?"
"Because she's mine."
"I'm not yours, I never was yours, and I'll never be yours." I say.
"Fine, but just watch out, bitch."

He stalks away and we go back to the car.

Harry's POV

When we get to her car, I offer to drive but she declines. She's silent the whole way home and I can see the bruise forming on her left wrist.

"Wren, do you want to talk about it?" I ask when we get to her apartment.
"No."
"Do you want me to stay over?" I offer.
"If you want to." she says and I nod. I may have only just asked her to be my girlfriend, but I feel close to her and I want to protect her.

She goes into her room and I follow. I stand in her doorway and her back is facing me. She slips off her shirt and I see the bruise from Josh pushing her down. I walk over to her and set my hand on her bare back.

"I'm sorry I pulled you into this." she whispers.
"Don't be sorry." I whisper back and let her get on her pajamas.

She gets into bed without a word and I turn off her light.

"Do you want me to sleep on the couch?" I ask her.
"No, I want you to sleep here." she pats the space next to her.
