i began to thrash against his grip, trying to get away. "don't mind her, this is my girlfriend, she  just doesn't want to go home. she's had way too much to drink." i heard him say to strangers that we'd passed. he dragged me outside and pushed me into his car.

"what the fuck are you doing?" i asked him, my consciousness slowly coming back to me. "i'm not gonna hurt you, i just want to talk." he pleaded. "well then talk, so i can get the fuck out of your car."

"kaia, i didnt mean to hurt you, will you please take me back?" justin asked and i cackled. "take you back? are you joking? no, i won't take you back! aren't you with hailey anyway?" i laughed. "she's not you. i want you back, kaia. and there's not i won't do to get you." his face hardened. i knew that look. that was the look i'd get before he'd hit me.

i began to freak out again, trying to get out of the car. i opened the door, but before i could get out, i felt hands wrap around my neck and pull me back against my seat. justin forced his lips onto mine while simultaneously choking me.

i pushed him off of me and was successful for a minute before his fist hit my left cheek. "justin, stop!" i cried, trying to push him away from me. i was unsuccessful, and he kept punching my body, like he was a boxer and i was his punching bag. everything went black after a few minutes of it.

i woke up the next morning in a hospital bed. "what the fuck?" i mumbled, trying to sit up. i couldn't, it hurt too bad. "kaia, baby, you're awake!" i heard someone say before seeing a mop of dark hair over me and feeling weight on top of me. it hurt, but i couldn't really protest.

the person was my mother, and she was a WRECK. "mom? you're hurting me." i told her, barely able to make sound. "shit, sorry sweetheart." she backed off of me. "we were only allowed one visitor at a time, so everyone else is in the waiting room. and before you ask, yes, harry's here. now baby, can you tell me what happe-"

"can i see him?" i interrupted. i know she's my mother and she wanted to know what happened to her daughter, but i wanted to see harry. after all, i hadn't seen him in a year, and i kind of broke his heart. so why was he here?

"oh, um, sure." i could tell she looked hurt, which made me feel bad, but i needed to see harry. my mother placed something in my arms. it was my stuffed bunny, robbie. i thanked her and she left the room quickly. i took the time to breath, the events of last night coming back to me. i felt hot tears stream down my face. i hadn't even known i was crying, but then i couldn't stop. i put my face in my hands and sobbed, as quietly as possible so that no one outside my room would hear me.

THIRD PERSON POV

"hey, kaia." the girl heard harry's voice. she began sobbing and clutching on to her stuffed animal. usually, seeing harry would've calmed her, but she knew she'd hurt him and she felt awful. he felt awful too, seeing her like his and not being able to make it better. "aw, babe- kaia, don't cry, please." he walked closer to her and rubbed her back. "i'm sorry. i'm so so sorry." kaia wailed.

harry sat down next to kaia in the bed and wrapped his arm around her. "hey, you have nothing to be sorry for, baby." he comforted. "yes i do. i've been so awful to you. i deserved what i got, harry. i really did." she cried.

this broke harry's heart. no one deserved something like this. especially not his kaia. she deserved the world. yeah, she'd hurt him, but that didn't make him love her any less. nothing in the world could make him love her less. and she needed him now, so he was going to be there for her in any way she'd let him. but he was not going to let her think she deserved this.

"baby, you do not deserve to be treated like that. no one deserves to be treated like that, but you- i cant imagine anyone wanting to hurt you." harry tried to reason with her, but it wasn't working. "i can. i definitely can. i don't know why you don't want to. i've been such a bitch to you. and look at you, you came here to see the girl that hurt you. i don't deserve someone like you in my life, i deserve someone like justin. someone who hurts me like i hurt you."

"please, stop saying you deserve this pain. you don't. you deserve nothing but happiness and i'm so sorry that's not what you're getting. i will do whatever i can to change that, but i will NOT let you go around thinking that what he did is okay. because that's not okay. you deserve someone who will love you and treat you right. like me." harry ranted.

"harry-" the girl protested quietly, tears filling her eyes again. "no, i know. i'm just saying. i you don't have to be with me, just let me be a part of your life, please. this whole thing reminded me how much i love you. how much i need you." he grabbed her hand. a tear fell down her face, but she let out a laugh.

"you need me? yeah right. we've been broken up for 4 months and look where i am. clearly, i need you." harry smiled a solemn smile at her statement. "okay, so we need each other. all the more reason to at least be friends. and maybe, in a couple months, when you've had some time-"

"harry." kaia warned. he held up his hands in surrender. "all i'm saying is, i'm here. whenever you need me." he kissed her forehead. "now, i'm gonna have to let your family see you, or they're gonna kill me."
