"Good night Harry."
~~~~~
"Come out come out wherever you are." I cover my mouth to try and stifle my screams. "You can't hide from me forever Christina. I already told you I'd find you." His footsteps are beginning to get louder. I have tears running down my face from how scared I am. The footsteps stop. Don't scream. Don't scream. The door opens and he reaches to grab me.

Harry POV:
I am woken up by a small person jumping awake. I look to my left and see Christina wide eyed and pale. She has a little bit of sweat on her face but you can't really tell. The only reason I can see it is from the faint blue glow of the tv. "What's wrong love?" I whisper sitting up to rub her arms to comfort her. She loosens up a little once I do but she still looks scared. "Its okay. It was just a bad dream is all." She just looks at me confused and looks around then back at me then down.
"Right..." she closes her eyes and brings her head back up and looks at me. "Right. Its just a bad dream." She whispers.
"Exactly. Its just a bad dream."
"Okay." She sighs and closes her eyes again. "Sorry... for waking you up."
"It's alright love. Are you doing okay now?"
"Yeah... I didn't scream or anything did I?"
"No. Not that I recall. You just kind of jumped awake."
"Sorry."
"Stop saying sorry. Everyone has nightmares."
"Yeah. Okay... I see that I'm spending the night here."
"Yeah. Unless you want to go back home. I can drop you off."
"No. Here is fine. Thank you though."
"Are you sure?"
"Yeah. I'm just uh... going to try and go back to sleep."
"Okay. Just know that I'm here. I won't let anything happen to you." I whisper. She nods and lays down again. She doesn't close her eyes at first though. She's kind of just looks at the ceiling then turns to face me and closes her eyes. She bends her legs almost to her chest and I assume she's cold so I pull the blanket up on her and she says a quiet thanks.
I look at her and she really is pretty. I can see why Niall thought she was cute. She isn't even cute. She's beautiful. Absolutely beautiful. I'd love to talk to her but I know that we could never be anything more than friends. The lads and I made a promise to never go after each other's girls whether they were people we fancied or our ex girlfriends. Standard bro code rules. Except, technically Christina wasn't Niall's girl. He just saw her once at a store. He never really said he liked her either, only that he thought she was cute. Plus, he has Stephanie. I don't really like her. Sure she's hot, and I hate to say this, but she's kind of a whore. She doesn't represent herself like she should. She shows too much when she shouldn't and she's always provocative. She's slept with who knows how many guys its kind of ridiculous. Yet Niall is still dating her... they haven't dated for a long time. Three months at most, but still. She usually can't keep a relationship and Niall can do better if he actually wanted to do better. I'm or going to say why he's dating her, it isn't my story to tell. But whatever makes him happy I guess.
Christina moves her legs straight and I know she isn't asleep yet. Her eyelids are kind of twitching And her breathing is kind of fast. This could be Niall right now next to her but he went off with Stephanie. He was talking about wanting to see her again and he missed his shot. It's his loss. Christina genuinely seems like a good person. Yes she is shy, but then again who isn't? I just want to be friends with her right now. Make her welcome since she is new. I assume she will be going to our school since she hangs out with Danielle and Perrie and Eleanor. I can show her around. Help her get settled and make new friends. Yeah, that's what I'll do. Then if Niall doesn't like her then I can start getting her attention. But how? You could- woah... slow it down there Harry. You become friends with her first then talk to Niall before anything. Okay. Small steps at a time. She really is something special though. I look at my phone and it's four o'clock. I should probably go back to sleep. I look at Christina and her breathing has slowed and she looks a lot more calm. I close my eyes and find myself wrapping my arms around her again before falling entirely into a deep sleep.
