Chap. 35; Revenge At Its Finest

CHAPTER THIRTY-FIVE

Harry's Point-of-View

"Now, we wait." I said, leaning back on my seat.

Anna and I were sat in her car while Liam and the lads were in my car right in front of us. I told them to drop off Gemma at Anna's flat before going here.

I glanced at her hands, gripping around the strap of her bag. I turned to her face and she was as pale as a ghost.

"Babe." I held her hand but she flinch away. "Are you okay?"

She shook her head, still looking straight ahead, "We don't have to wait." She raised her shaking hand and pointed straight.

"Th-that... that's hi-him.." she said, stuttering.

I followed her gaze to a man in a dark grey trench coat standing by the light post. I feel my body freeze with anger, with rage. I barely typed on my phone properly.

"He's here." I spoke as soon as Liam picked up.

"Where is he?" Liam asked.

"By the light post."

"We're on it-"

"Wait!" I shouted. We watched as two other people in black coats and hats covering their face, approach the man.

"Who are those two?" I heard Louis is the background.

"I don't know, lad but we have to wait and see what's going to happen." Liam spoke.

The three of them talked for about 15 minutes before one of them handed the man wearing the dark grey trench coat an envelope. The people in black nodded then left in the dark.

"What do you say, lad?" I heard Liam speak.

"Let's get him." I hung up on him and turned to Anna. "I want you to go home. Get out of here as fast as you can. I'll ride with the lads. Okay? Go home and tell Henry not to let anyone in your flat except us. We won't take long. I promise."

When I was about to open the door, I was stopped by Anna's hand on my thigh. "Be careful, Harry. Please."

I smiled and cupped her cheek. I pecked her lips and said, "I will. Don't worry about me."

She sighed, "I love you, Harry." It still gives me massive fireworks in my stomach when she says that she loves me.

"I love you more, babe." I kissed her forehead, staying there for as long as I can before opening the door and walking towards my car. Her engine roared and she drove away.

The lads were already outside of the car waiting for me. Niall and Louis were each holding a tire wrench. Zayn, Liam and I were empty handed. I nodded at them and we started to walk to the man.

"Hey you!" the man turned to me and smirked.

"What can I do for you, -"

"You fucking bastard!" I punched him across the face before he could even finish. He fell to the ground clutching his jaw.

"What the fuck?!" he shouted and I kicked him on his stomach. Something dropped from his coat. It was the envelope and-

"That's Anna's Taser." Louis said pointing down on the black and gold gadget. He grabbed it from the ground along with the envelope.

I kicked him twice before speaking, "Remember that?! HUH?!" I kicked him once again.

"I didn't do anything to you! Fuck off!" he cried.

"You're right. But you did something to our friend!" Zayn growled. He knelt down beside him and started punching him in the face.

"Please! Stop!" the man begged, failing to block Zayn's punches. "I'm begging you! Have mercy!"
