My heart freezes, he turns back around in his seat and starts to drive. 

He'd change.. for me? 

Harry glances at me every two minutes, he has a small smile on his face and I'm too shocked to talk at this very moment, but it's not awkward silence, it's really comfortable. I know that before my accident, Harry was always surrounded by girls, always, but he was never interested in them, and I don't know why, he was always one to chase after a girl and not leave until she gave him a kiss, that was when he was ten.  

I shift in my seat, my back is hurting and I don't know why, also I feel a little bit of pain in my stomach,

"Are you okay?" Harry asks, we've stopped at a red light and he is staring at me, his facial expression very worried.

"Mhmm." I mutter, trying to make it look okay, trying to not make a fuss about it,

"Ashleigh, what's wrong?" 

"Just a little bit of pain, it's fine." 

"It's not fine." He says and I sit up, 

"It is."

He sighs and rolls his eyes, "When we get home, you're taking medication."

"I know. I can look after myself. You know that right?" I smile, his straight face cracks into a smile and he starts driving again. 

Once we arrive at his house, we go inside and put all the shopping on the sofa, he goes straight into the kitchen. 

I wonder what he's doing.. I wander and he has a glass of water and pills in a tiny plastic cup, 

"For you." He says without glancing at me, how does he know I'm in here? His back is turned to me. 

"Thanks." I jump and sit on the counter, I put all the pills in my mouth and chug them all down with a big gulp of water, Harry turns to face me and smiles, 

"Better?" 

"I have to wait ten minutes for them to kick in remember?" 

"Oh yeah.." He chuckles, he takes my hand and walks towards me stopping when his stomach knocks my knees. "Ashleigh.. can I say something.. without getting interrupted?" I nod. 

He gets my phone then gets his, turning them both off. He puts them away from us then takes both of my hands, 

"Ash.. I think.. I think I'm in love with you, I can't help but feel like this.. I feel strange, like I need to look after you.. I.." He pauses, our eyes locked together, he takes a step forwards, which I wasn't even sure it was possible, "I need you in my life, I want you in my life, yeah, I'm a murderer, I'm crazy.. I must be because I damn know that I'm beyond crazy for you." 

I feel butterflies errupt in my stomach, he starts to lean in, and like it's an instinct, I lean in too. 

Our lips meet, his lips are so soft.. His arms wrap around my waist and the kiss deepens, his tongue traces my bottom lip and I cave, letting his tongue inside my mouth, my hands place on his shoulders and teeth nibble on my lip, I give in and slightly moan and I can tell, he wants more, but I pull away, he smiles at me and I smile back, 

"I think, I'm a little crazy too." I whisper, his smile widens and he chuckles slightly, 

"I guess we're both crazy." We kiss again and then I jump down from the counter, 

"What time is it?" 

"No idea.. what do you want to do for a bit?" 

"Video games?"
