My whole world felt like it just stopped. The fact that Harry was holding me tightly in his arms made my whole body feel like jelly and for my heart to beat wildly in my chest.

I was too stunned to hug him back so I just stood there with my mouth hanging open and there was this part of me that was enjoying and cherishing this moment.

"Alice" he held me at arms length then looked straight into my eyes, "I'm so sorry!"

His eyes gave everything away. He was angry, frustrated, and relieved all at once.

His look at me made me want to cry but I forced my tears back. I didn't want myself to look weak especially when Harry was standing in front of me.

I bit my lower lip before answering him.

"It's okay." I assured him.

He shook his head then removed his hands from my shoulders "Where the fuck is that fucking arsehole?!"

He turned to face the other frat members who were with him when they got here.

Before any of them could answer, Liam told them that he already got away.

Harry sighed and ran his hand over his hair. "I want to kill him right now, Alice do you know that?!"

I gently placed my hand on his shoulder, I felt him tense from my touch but I pretended that I didn't notice it. "Harry, look at me."

He just kept on staring at the ground so I made him look at me by placing my hand under his chin and tilted his head.

His mesmerizing green eyes were burning with anger and frustration as he looked at me.

I couldn't breathe properly, this beautiful man in front of me always took my breath away and never failed to make me feel this way but I still couldn't decipher what I was really feeling right now but I knew that I was happy and I'd do anything for me to always feel this way.

"I'm alright. Calm down." I said softly as I gently rubbed the pad of my thumb on his cheek.

He closed his eyes and tried to relax. I took this as an opportunity to study his features.

When he opened his eyes, I could tell that he wasn't angry anymore. He was worried and overthingking what happened.

I let my hands fall to my sides. I smile coyly at him as he examined the look on my face. His brows slightly creased.

"Don't overthink it, Harry." I whispered and looked down as I felt my cheeks heat up.

"Carter!" Harry called and then Carter, the one with the dirty blonde hair and pale blue eyes walked towards Harry.

He nodded towards me when he was beside Harry so I smiled at him.

Harry motioned him to come closer so that he could whisper something to him.

Liam walked towards where I was and stood beside me, giving me  a warm and friendly smile that made me grin at him.

When I turned to look back at Harry and Carter, Carter nodded at Harry then walked back to where the other frat members were and told something to them.

They were all listening intently then moments later they were off to go somewhere.

Harry turned to look at Liam then at me. "Where the hell is Niall?" He asked.

Uh oh.

"He. . . Uh. . . He just. . ."

"Where the fuck is Niall, Alice?!" He was mad once again.
