Harry

After all the talking with Bren and Lou my head was in a tailspin. I couldn't just sit in their house any longer. Yes, Lou is like a brother to me and I love him as one, but if I stay here without knowing that Nevaeh is ok I'll literally go nuts. So without hesitation, I asked Lou to take me so I could get my car.

After I sat and thought through everything we talked about, everything Nevaeh had messaged, all that I had found out about her so called friend the very one that kissed me, I could not just sit there any longer. I know it's a slim chance I might get into the house given the hour now, and how drunk she had gotten, but I had to do it. I wasn't going to get any sleep anyway.

I drove at the speed limit getting there at 3 in the morning, my heart racing, hoping to god she just went to sleep and didn't do anything else, I literally wouldn't be able to take that.

Getting out of my car, I approach the door and knock. Surprisingly JoJo answers "Harry?"

"Yeah, it's me, can I come in?"

"Yeah, sure is everything alright? You look a wreck"

"That's what I need to find out. Do you know how or where Nevaeh got alcohol from last night?"

Her mouth falls open wide "no, I'm so sorry Harry. I must've fallen asleep. I'm no help at all huh"

"I just need to find her ok, make sure she didn't do anything crazy" as I'm racing up the stairs

Thankfully I find her in her bed asleep. It looks as though she may have even cried herself to sleep though and that breaks my heart. This didn't have to be like this, her beautiful face with streaks down her cheeks, her eyes looking puffy in her sleep, but even with that she's still absolutely gorgeous to me.

I go tell JoJo "she's in her room." and  "I'm going to lay in there with her". I also tell her  "lock up and go back to sleep, sorry to wake you"

She smiles "it's ok Harry, I was up to the bathroom"

I go up only kicking off my shoes and lay with Nevaeh, hoping to get a bit of sleep. It's something that hasn't been  easy anymore, only when laying with her and holding her in my arms. It may sound crazy to some, but for me if she's there, in my arms,  I know she's safe at least at that moment.

I drift off to sleep holding, the only one I've ever truly loved.

Next thing I know, I'm suddenly awoken and  being pushed to the floor. I hit with a thump, causing me to groan.

Nevaeh

I wake up with a weight on me.

I push it off me and I hear a thump on the floor, followed by a groan.

What the hell? I know I was here alone last night...wasn't I? I didn't let nobody into my only safe place...

I look over to see who or ...omy god... who let him in...how long has he been here?
