“Holy shit Cass.. Is she arrested or what happens?” Eden asks me as she hands me a cup of steaming hot chocolate with little marshmallows bobbling along the top of the brown liquid.

“She’s already locked up.” I say before taking a long sip of the hot chocolate, letting it both warm me up and relax my body.

“And what about Haz?” She asks, also taking a sip of the drink she has herself.

What about Harry? I have been home for two days now, and I haven’t talked to him since I text him telling him I was out of the station. And the last phone conversation, was when I was talking to him about Bella; and I told him then I loved him, and now we arent talking?He’s home from Cheshire, came home last night, I know this because I saw the pictures all over twitter. He knows I’m home because he booked the flights himself. So why haven’t we seen eachother? Because I pushed him away. I forced him to leave me alone when I needed him the most and now I can’t bring myself to talk to him via phone, never mind face to face. I would break down in tears as the memory of me telling him to go home runs though my head as I would look at his face.

Some of you may say I’m over-reacting. Maybe I am, to you. But to me, once I push someone away, I can’t find it in myself to bring them back, no matter how much either of us wants it to happen. Whether it’s a person who I would only see every once in a while, or someone I see every day. I push them away? They basically stay away.

“I don’t know..” was all I say back to Eden.

“Don’t leave Aunt Cassie” Sophia pouts, as she looks seriously scared. I sigh sadly before replying.

“Bring your blankets and come to the living room.” I say, before walking out of the room and going up to the living room myself.

We got settled down and I put on a movie of their choice, which ended up being princess protection programme. Though, I have to say, I don’t mine this movie so far. I am personally a huge fan of Selena Gomez.

About half way through the movie, Sophia fell asleep, and Olivia was nearly there, when there was a knock on the door.

Who could actually be here at nearly ten at night?

Deciding I’m not chancing opening the door late at night, I rested my head back down on the arm of the sofa again, tuning back into the movie.

My phone lit up on the coffee table about a minute after I got all comfy again. I sigh, raising the top half of my body and resting on my elbow for support, I lifted my phone off the coffee table and opened the new message.

From: Harry.<3

It’s me at the door. Open up, it’s raining:L x

I roll my eyes as I lift the blanket off my body.

“Where are you going Aunt Cassie?” Olivia’s sleepy voice calls out from the other sofa that occupies her and Sophia.

“To get the door. Go to sleep.” I whisper back in attempt not to wake Sophia. She nods and settles her head back onto the pillow, lightly closing her eyes.

“Thought you’d never answer” Harry chuckles as he wraps his arms tighter around his shivering body.

“Harry, It’s ten at night. What do you want?” I snap, not really being in the mood to talk to anyone, let alone Harry.

“I just wanted to see you” he laughs again. I roll my eyes, stepping back and opening the door wider, leaving enough room for him to get in.

He takes off his coat and scarf that has flakes of snow dropped over it, as I go into the kitchen and put on the kettle, making a cup of tea for him.

 "Again. What do you want?" I grit once he has taken a few sips of the tea, obviously being instantly warmed up.

“Cassie” He sighs, placing his cup onto the bench and turning to face me. “I want you, back. Do you know how much I missed you last week? Even my sister noticed, and she never notices anything-“

“Harry, your ex has threatened to kill Sophia and Olivia. Do you not get that? I can’t be with you anymore. I’m sorry.” I whisper-yell, handing him back his coat and scarf.

“Can I have a drink please?” Olivia comes, sleepily rubbing at her eyes, trailing her big brown bear behind her.

“You need to leave now Harry.” I say to Harry before turning my attention back to Olivia and sorting her out a drink, watching as Harry leaves, back into the dark snowing night.

You may be sitting there thinking; why don’t you just let him back when you have the chance? Well, the thing is, like I said earlier, once I push them away; I keep them away.

And plus, it’s for Sophia and Olivia’s safety. If I go near Harry, Bella – even though she is in jail now – will most likely hunt me and the girls down and kill us all. So, therefore, I am not going running back to him. And he has work to do, countries to visit. He won’t be able to protect us forever, no matter how much either of us wants him to.
