I woke up the next morning almost forgetting about the recent events. I looked to the right side of my bed and saw an unexpected empty spot.

I got up to go to Harry's room to see if he left after I fell asleep, but I was stopped by the smell of bacon that filled the kitchen.

I looked in the kitchen to see Harry's back facing me and he was cooking at the stove.

I stood at my bedroom door for a few seconds, just admiring his beauty and smiling to myself. I realized how lucky I was at that moment.

I snuck up behind him, and put my arms around his back.

He stiffened at first in shock, Then loosened up when I kissed his cheek.

"Good morning." He said. I looked up and saw him grinning. The two familiar dimples were glowing on his face.

I didn't know how I had gotten so lucky to have met this guy, better yet to be his girlfriend.

"You're so cute." I said without thinking and then laughed because I realized how high schoolish it sounded.

Without warning Harry turned around, grabbed my waist, and kissed me right on the mouth....hard.

I giggled and kissed him back, but as usual we were awkwardly interrupted by Gemma. She was standing at her door, leaning up against the wooden frame, and of course she was smirking.

I looked at her not only rolling my eyes, but also feeling my cheeks go red as if I had put way too much blush on.

"What?" Harry asked me when he saw my face, but didn't ask any further questions when he turned to look where my eyes were staring. "Gemma honestly, give us five minutes alone." He said rudely, but somehow still politely.

"Okay, okay." She said holding her hands up in defense. "But from where you slept last night I think you two had enough alone time, if you know what I mean." My heart dropped when she said this and my face blushed even more than it already was from before.

"No! We...nothing happened...I..."

"Oh, fuck off Gemma! She just had a nightmare so I slept in her room so she wouldn't be alone. Nothing happened, so you can just stay out of it." Harry said what I was trying to say, but I would have said it a bit nicer.

"Okay whatever, it doesn't matter to me I just thought it was cute, you two spooning in Skyler's bed." She was laughing hysterically now. "Well I'm off to work. Bye!" She said still chuckling as she walked out the door.

"I'm sorry Townes, she just isn't used to me with a girlfriend." Harry said smirking at me.

"Well she better get used to it." I said and continued what Gemma interrupted before.

He kissed me back again, but this time he picked me up by my thighs and I wrapped my Legs around his back. He walked over to the couch and threw me down gently. He was now on top of me, my legs still around his waist.

He started kissing my neck and my body filled with pleasure as I weaved my fingers in his hair.

Before I could help it a quiet moan escaped my lips,but I bit my lip so it didn't happen again.

He brought his lips back to mine and his tongue licked my bottom lip asking for and entrance and I let him in. We continued this for a while, until we were interrupted again by my phone vibrating on the coffee table.

I sighed as Harry stood up and got it for me. He looked at it and rolled his eyes.

"I thought you were off today." He said handing me my phone. I looked at it and saw that it was Gemma calling me.

"I am." I said rolling my eyes and answering it.

"What?" I Answered rudely, and immediately felt bad when I heard Gemma's voice.

"Skyler! Um I was on the way to work and then I saw the vehicle and then I saw them together they are still here you have to get down here and save her please hurry come..."

"Woah Gemma slow down. What's going on?" I asked her trying to calm her down. She was talking way too fast for me to understand what she was saying.

"Just please come to the Limestone. And quick!" She said then hung up.

I put my phone down and looked at Harry with wide eyes.

"No you aren't going to work today she told you that you were off. She can't just make you work because you're her roommate." He said, assuming that she wanted me to come work.

"No Harry. It's not that it sounded like she was in trouble. Come on we have to go quick." I said frantically as I put shoes on.

We ran out the door and took a cab to the Limestone.

When we got there Gemma was standing outside of the building looking shocked.

"Gemma? What's going on are you okay?" Harry asked as he ran up to her.

"What? Yeah I'm fine, but she isn't." She said and pointed to a familiar car across the street.

At the sight of the car, my nightmare flashed back into my head.

That was the car that I sat in once voluntarily, only to be taken to a house where I would be held hostage for hours.

It was him. He was here. But that wasn't all.

I looked to where Gemma was pointing. In the backseat of the familiar car was a familiar person.

We were standing all the way across the street and even I could see that she was sleep deprived.

Her hair was frizzy, her eyes red, her shirt looked dirty, and her face was pale.

Tears began escaping my eyes and I started to run towards the car to save her. To get her away, but someone grabbed my arm before I could dash towards the car.

I looked back and saw Harry's hand wrapped around my wrist.

"Let me go!" I screamed "let go of me! I have to save her!"

"No stop. Skyler you have to be careful about this. He will kill you."

"Harry we have to get her out of that car." Gemma said with tears in her eyes.

While they were talking, I sneaked away from the sidewalk and walked cautiously over to the car.

I looked in the window and saw my best friend that I thought was gone staring at me blankly.

It was like she didn't know who I was.

I opened the door and helped her out.

"Oh my God Raine! What the hell happened to you? I thought you were dead."

"Stop!" She screamed, and when she did, it got both Harry and Gemma's attention. They both ran over to us and helped me carry her to a cab. We had to get her out of here before Niall came back and saw that she was missing. "LET ME GO!!!!" She screamed even louder than before.

We got in a cab, and the driver started driving.

"What's going on?" Gemma asked with wide eyes.

Raine was kicking around and screaming.

"I don't think she remembers us." I said still confused.

But then Raine looked at Harry.

"YOU!" She yelled. "IT'S ALL YOUR FAULT!" And then I remembered something.

Harry was in the room with Raine when he claimed that she died.
