Our World || Allie x Harry || The Society

Eight

Harry was down the stairs first, Grizz hot on his heels with Campbell following suit.

Allie was up on her feet in an instant as three loud footsteps rushed down the steps. She had fallen asleep without meaning to, quickly brushing through her wavy hair and flattening her shirt with her hands.

Harry appeared first, flipping on the light switch.

A smile started to form on her face as she met Harry and Grizz's eyes, but it disappeared in an instant when she saw Campbell sauntering down the stairs behind them, a sneer plastered on his face.

"I know what you're thinking. What the hell is he doing here?" Campbell said, gesturing to himself.

Harry withdrew the cellar key from his pocket, moving to unlock the glass door. Allie took a step forward, ignoring Campbell's presence. She wasn't that surprised that he was here, although she was still taken back by his presence, because if he was here, then that meant Harry's plan to get her out was successful.

And now she was worried what would happen to Will. She hoped Harry would do good on his word, which was talk to Grizz about Will and inform him what was happening. She had had a lot of time to think, knowing that trying to move Will would be near impossible since it would only arouse more suspicion.

Harry opened the door, holding his hand out for her. He did this more for her comfort, to show her that he wouldn't let Campbell do anything to her.

Grizz glanced at Harry's extended hand, eyes narrowing slightly as a new thought came through his mind.

Allie took his hand, his warm touch calming her restless nerves. Harry pulled her close to his side, releasing her hand from his only to place it on the small of her back. They walked around a still grinning Campbell, Harry pushing Allie gently with his hand.

Grizz watched them closely as he followed the couple, realizing that there was much more to this situation that Harry had previously told him.

"Harry?" Grizz was puzzled when he had just arrived back in town from the new land to Harry leaning against his audi, his black sunglasses preventing Grizz from seeing his eyes.

"I was told you were coming back today. We need to talk." Harry said, turning around and getting in his car.

Grizz was even more confused at this point. Harry noticed his expression and rolled his eyes as he started his car, ignoring the stares they were receiving from people.

"Are you sure you have the right person?" Grizz questioned, still standing awkwardly outside of the car, adjusting his bags.

"Yes. Now please, get in the car."

And he did, many questions going through his head. Harry drove down and around a block, rolling the windows up and then turning on the ac.

"What are you doing?" Grizz asked after Harry continued driving without saying a word.

"I need your help."

"Are you sure you're asking the right guy for this?" Grizz questioned, his brow raised.

"Its about Allie."

"What did you do?!" Grizz snapped, a wave of anger flooding over him. He tensed at the mention of Allie's name, thinking Harry had done something to her.

"Nothing. She got sick."

"Allie's sick?"

"She's doing better, but she still has a fever. Lexie dragged her back to the wine cellar."
