*Harry's POV*

I felt absolutely terrible after I had finished punishing her. I never enjoyed hitting people, sometimes it just needed to be done. If she wouldn't have run off, I wouldn't have needed to scare her. She needs to realize that she is mine. I won't let her go, and that is that. She will have to warm up to me eventually, right?

Laila's POV

I cried myself to sleep for the first time, and it was terrible. My bum burned every time I shifted slightly and I was not comfortable at all. I can't believe he had actually hit me. If he thought he had a chance, he has absolutely no chance now. I can't let him win. If he thought I was being tough already, he's in for hell now.

Harry's POV

I slammed the door shut and ran to the spare room. After locking it from the inside, I sunk to the floor and put my head in my hands. I had never hit a girl, let alone someone I really liked before. But the sick thing was is that I was willing to do it again if it meant I scared her into staying.

I don't really know why I was so keen on keeping her with me, but something deep inside me just couldn't let her go.

I feel like nobody knows her the way I do. She is misunderstood and neglected. I want to be the one that helps her and makes her feel wanted. I want to make her feel more than ordinary and to do that I am going to have to fight for it.

Laila's POV

I awoke to the sound of humming, which seemed to be coming from the kitchen. Why the hell was he so cheery?

I rolled over to my other side and pulled a pillow over my head to drown out the joy. The bedroom door creaked open and as the humming got louder and louder, I dreaded seeing him more and more.

"Wake up love," he cooed.

"F*ck off," I hissed and he chuckled. Boy was he going to get it.

"Please wake up?"

"Blast I'm already awake!" I yelled.(If you get this reference I love you.)

"Looks like someone needs a huuuug," he said.

"Go away."

"Look, I'm really sorry Lai-"

"Dont call me Lai," I snapped.

"I'm sorry Laila bear, you just needed to know that you can't leave," he replied.

"I think I have a right to leave," I shot back.

"What was that? I can't hear you under that pillow," he teased.

"Get out of the room before I strangle you," I said seriously and removed the pillow from on top of me.

"My house, my rules, and I say no strangling allowed."

"Then I'll leave."

"No leaving."

"I will meander to the outdoors."

"Only if I can come with you."

"Forget I even said anything," I sighed and began to close my eyes. I felt something reach under my side and yank me off the bed.

  I screeched and began to kick furiously at him and he just kept laughing. He carried me out of the room and into the kitchen where breakfast was laid out on the table. My eyes widened at the food and I freed myself from his hold and dove for the table.

He looked very amused at me while I shoveled food into my mouth. I was incredibly hungry after not having food for a day, let alone a few hours. As soon as I had finished the eggs, bacon, and 3 slices of toast he finally spoke again.

"I guess I'll have to start feeding you sooner," he chuckled.

I glared at him and made a run for the door. He quickly caught on and flew in front of it, blocking me from leaving.

"Don't test me Laila, you will lose," he warned. I slammed my fist into the wall and stormed up the stairs. He jumped at my actions, clearly surprised. I smirked at his reaction as he followed right behind me.

"Don't walk away from me," he warned as I stomped down the hallway.

"You can't tell me what to do," I shouted and ran into a room, trying to close the door. He stopped it with his foot and pushed it open, making me fall. Before I could hit the floor, he caught me.

"Just let me in," he whispered.

"What?"

"Let me give you everything. Let me get to know you, it's all I want. I want to be able to hold you when you sleep and be there when you're sad. I dont want to be the cause of your anger," he replied.

"You should have said that when you saw me the first time."

"If I could rewind the past, I would," he sighed.

"Don't expect me to like you, because I won't. What you did was wrong in every level, and you clearly have a screwed up head if you are keeping me here for yourself. I can't and won't let you know me, so you might as well just give up now."
