Give Me Love//H.S

38

Violent words and actions ahead:

As we got off the plane it was raining hard. After hearing Adams jokes the rest of the plane ride made everybody a bit irritated. We got in a car that took us to a hotel, so we could wait all of this out. Now it was time for me to make up a lie to tell  my parents. I sat on the bed, literally pulling my hair.

"You okay?" Harry asked walking out of the bathroom.

"Yeah. Just a little stressed." I sighed and laid back onto the bed.

Harry crawled up on me and kissed my chin, resting his on my chest. I know he's stressed with all of this. I don't want to add anymore to his. His green eyes stayed flat as he played with the small bow on my tank top. His lips pulled into a straight line.

"I'll get you home, safe and sound. I promise." He hummed and slid the strap off my shoulder.

"That's not what I'm worried about. I'm worried about you"? I said.

His eyes stared into mine and he was hurt. I knew I shouldnt have said anything.

"Kate, I'm the last person to think about with this. Please don't." He said getting off of me.

"So, I cant worry about you. When you can literally have a heart attack just by you having so much stress." I said standing up.

"Dont start with that shit. I'm not talking about this." He said and walked over to the door.

"No, were gonna talk about this. I can worry about you as much as i want." I groaned.

"You shouldnt have to! If it wasnt for me you could've been safe and back in Maryland! I wasnt thinking when I met you. It was all a mistake, I was never looking for anybody and I'm not used to this shit, it hurts me. It hurts me to see you in pain and scared!" He yelled.

My body froze at his words. He didnt want me? Why would he say that?

"And to make it worse, Darien is going after the one thing I care about because I fucked up!" He said.

I walked up to him and grabbed his face in my hands. His eyes didnt reach mine. He was trying to get away.

"So you know why Darien is after me and you lied to me?" I questioned.

"To protect you". He sighed

"Tell me". I cried. Wishing to get anything about it.

His eyes never left mine as he grabbed my wrists and pulled me off of him.

"That night, when you were locking up shop and saw that guy in the alley. He was one of Dariens men not mine. He knew your grandfather. You have no idea how fucked up this all is." He said and sat on the bed.

"He k-knew my grandfather? My pappap?" I said.

He nodded and stood up, towering me .

"Your grandfather owned Darien and his men. My dad knew your family for years. They ran this whole thing together. Long story short, your grandfather, your 'pap' got people killed on Darien's side over a bad accident. But nobody could confront them due to his passing. Your grandma knows all of this. Your parents and brother have been watched. They want you because you're  attached to me. When Darien found out, he wanted blood for revenge, but they never knew where to look for him. He died, keeping secrets and placing your poor grandmother in danger, along with her own daughter and grandkids. Now I'm stuck cleaning up this mess." He said wiping his eyes.

"I dont get it. How and when did this all start?" I cried.

"The night Mike and I came home from the bar. The guys that hit Mike and beat me up were Dariens guys. When I was asked who I was with I said it was a nobody and then they started to question about you. They knew you were his granddaughter. They knew my dad." He pulled at his hair.

He paced around the room and stopped at the door. His eyes turned to me and he sighed.

"Who did my grandfather kill"? I said as my tears flowed out.

"Kate, please". Harry pleaded.

"Tell me!" I yelled.

"Dariens wife and granddaughter. Your grandfather ignited their car with fireworks, playing a prank. But blew up the car, killing them instantly". He said.

At that moment my heart stopped beating. Why in all of God's creation would he do that.

"I love you, but I cant lose you. Not to that prick. He wants revenge, and he won't stop until he gets it." He whispered and opened the door.

"Harry?" I questioned but he had already left the room.

I looked around the room and searched for my phone. He wasnt going to storm off like this. I grabbed it and started to cry. I threw the small phone, breaking it as I stomped on it. This was all a lie, it has to be. Why would this be true? It just cant be, and I'm going to get killed for something I didnt know anything about. Harry was gone, I felt sick to my stomach. He doesn't love me, never did. Then to top it off ny grandfather was a murderer. Something vibrating caused me to wipe my eyes and search the room. once I found it I noticed it was Harry's phone, not a throwaway one. I dropped it to the floor and started to panic. We were being tracked. A burst of loud knocks made me jump as I witnessed three men barge into the hotel room.

"Get her"! One yelled and I ran into the bathroom screaming.

I searched frantically for an exit but it was a far fall to endure. I was completely screwed. Suddenly the room became silent. I sat in the glass shower, my knees pulled up to my chest. The door busted open and I let out a scream. Then everything around me went black.
