It's late. I know it the moment I open my eyes. But for a minute I forget why I am awake. And then I hear it again. Knocking.

"Jesus! I'm fucking hurrying!" I say, pushing the sheets off and making my way to the door. I quickly pull it open but I am surprised by who it is.

"Christopher?" I ask. "What the fuck are you here for?"

"You said the words." He says, he looks so serious. Always so serious.

"So that means you come here? This fucking late?" I ask, glaring at him.

"Safety reasons." He says, pushing me to the side so he can get it. "Sorry, sir, really, but it's for the best."

"Right. So are you going to be staying with me now?" I hope he says no.

"Yes, sir. Until the problem is no longer a problem." He still looks so serious. Not a hint of emotion in his face.

"Okay, then." I say, sighing. "I hope you like sleeping on the chair."

"The chair is just fine, sir." He says, sitting down on it. I was not expecting this at all. Having someone stay with me at all times. I mean I already have bodyguards, what is the point in him coming along?

"Well, goodnight, Christopher." I say, getting back under the covers.

"Goodnight, sir." Christopher says. And then I am back to sleep.

"You have to be careful with who you trust." Maeve says.

"What do you mean?" I ask, cocking my head to the side.

"Not everyone is here to help you, just be careful on who let in." She says, smiling sadly.

"Okay." I say, nodding. She sits down on the grass next to me.

"Harry." She says. It's been awhile since I have heard say my whole name. Something must be wrong.

"What's wrong?" I ask, pulling her into my lap and holding her close.

"I just- I'm worried about you." I think she is crying.

"Hey, I'm okay. Yeah?" I say, hugging her tighter. "How about we sing?"

"If the sun refused to shine I would still be loving you," She starts, I smile and join in.

"Mountains crumble to the sea, there would still be you and me," And then she kisses me.

"That was always my favourite." She smiles. And I nod.

"Mine too." I say, kissing her again. "Is it time for you to go?"

"Sadly. But just be careful, okay? I love you." Maeve says, and then she dies.

We are sitting in a restaurant when my phone vibrates. It's an unknown number. I quickly unlock my phone to check it.

Unknown: I see you :)

Okay then. That's a little scary. Christopher shoots me a look and I just shrug.

"Hey, Harry!" Zayn says. "Is that Nova?" I look to where he is pointing. And sure enough. There she is, smiling at me. And then she walks over to the table.
