Free Fall (Harry Holland)

"Stay with me."

Haley's hands were shaking as she slowly raised them,

"Hands up! Quickly! You." The man in the black hood, pointed at Harry with his gun, Haley's heart stopped. "Close the door and draw the curtains." Harry's heart beat faster, he was afraid it would jump out of his chest, but that wasn't what his mind was on, he was scared of the man with the gun being so close to Haley, as he reluctantly bolted the door.

"He doesn't know how to .. where to pull the blinds over the .. windows. Just-" The gun was pointed at her now, she closed her eyes and took a deep breath, "Let me."

The man looked at her, he had green eyes and a light beard was all she could see, he thought for a second, "Do it and be quick." She walked slowly towards the windows, she shot Harry a look, as if asking why he would be so dumb to walk back inside when he had left, a look of worry, she drew the blinds on the windows, the diner looked darker, although there was no light from the outside. There was an eerie silence, as the man searched the counter. Her eyes still on the man, Haley quickly walked over to the customers that were close to tears, she had no idea what to say to them, all that came out was,

"Try and stay calm, hopefully he won't hurt you." She said the women nodded, pulling her father close. She ran to Harry, Harry touched her face, like a mad man, investigating every inch, she held onto his arm tightly,

"Are you okay?" He said, his eyes still scanning her.

"Harry, why would you come back? He could hurt you now you should've stayed out." She said, gripping his arms with her sweaty palms, he was about to reply when they heard a sharp yell of pain come from the back, the man came outside, yanking Dean by his sweater, dragging him outside,

"Everyone phones now!" He yelled, Haley's hands were shaking, she pulled her phone out and he yanked their phones from their hands and placed them on the ground, crushing them all with his foot, one by one. "That'll teach you to not get any bright ideas to call 999." The woman in the diner yelled out and cried as her father gripped her close to him. "You." He pointed the gun at Haley, Harry held her tightly as a defense, as he took a step in front of her, she stood behind his body half hidden by his arm, that she had firmly held onto. "Is there anyone else here?" Haley opened her mouth, but tears fell instead, she thought of Freddie. What would he do if she were to die here? Who would take care of him? She felt her life flash before her eyes, "WHO ELSE IS HERE?!" Haley jumped at his voice, the man held the gun at her with both hands.

"Stop pointing the gun at her man!" Harry held his hand up at him, with his other arm around Haley, hugging her close.

"N-n-no one." Haley finally spoke.

"Come with me." He said, Harry gripped her hand.

"No." Harry said.

"I didn't ask you."

"She isn't going anywhere." Harry said, lightly. He walked closer to them, he pushed the gun onto Harry's forehead, it hurt him but he stood his ground looking at the man, dead in the eyes, with rage and fright.

"I'll go." Haley replied letting go off Harry's hand, she had to protect him however she could, if it weren't for her he would never even have showed up in the first place.

"No. Haley stop." He whispered, trying to grab her hand again, but she had walked away, no way was she letting Harry get hurt because she was too scared. He pointed the gun at Haley's back,
