Harper's Pov
Matty and i weren't saying anything to each other. We kept drinking tea and trying to block out Harry and Kat being sexual in her room.
"Where's Steph today?" He asked, finally breaking the silence.
"I think she is just grabbing some groceries." i said bored.
He stayed quiet for a few minutes.
"Want to come back to mine? Or we could kick these two out. Send them to the movies. That would give us time." he said, downing the last of his 4th cup of tea before bringing his joint to his lips.
I looked at him, taking the cigarette from his outstretched hand. I took a drag and waited as my arms grew heavy and the corners of my vision blurred.
I stood up and grabbed his hand, pulling him down the hall and into my room. I closed the door and he pressed me against it, the joint still between his fingers. He kissed me before he walked me backwards to the bed, pushing me down. He put the cigarette out on a cd case next to my bed before climbing over me and kissing me hard.
His hands slipped under my t-shirt, resting over my ribcage. He slipped my shirt over my head, followed by my sweats. I took off his shirt, tracing his tattoo's. I had always wondered what they meant.
"Would you come with me if i got a tattoo?" I asked against his jaw.
"Ahh...i guess. Wouldn't the girls go with you?" He said absentmindedly, removing my bra.
"But if they couldnt, would you?" I knew i sounded desperate but i couldnt help it.
He moved back to my lips. "Sure."
We didnt talk after that. Just did what we always did and when Matty was satisfied we were both happy, he re-lit his joint and lay my head on his chest. After a while he surprised me by asking me about my parents. I didnt tell him anything other then my father was dead and my mother and i were never close. He seemed to understand more then i thought though, as he climbed out of bed and produced a few more joints and two small packets of white powder from his jeans on the floor. I hadnt done cocain before and made sure Matty was aware of it, but he taught me what do and i soon felt a new kind euphoria pulse through my blood. Matty started smoking after that and i lay down on his chest again before stoning out and falling asleep into a drug infused slumber.

Kat's POV
Steph came home just after Harry began to get dressed. I quickly did the same and told him to stay put so i could tell her he was here.
"Stephy?" I asked, walking out of my room.
"Wheres Harry?" She asked tiredly. "His car is downstairs." She explained.
"Oh...ahh he's in my room." She nodded.
"Are you ok?" I asked.
"I saw Luke with this slutty girl. She had short blond hair and long legs and before i saw her face i thought it was Harper and i freaked out. But then she detatched her lips from his and i saw it wasnt her. But when he saw me staring he wrapped his hand around her neck and bought his lips back to hers, looking at me over her shoulder...What did i actually do to him?"
Wow, scary Steph. "Dude why do you honestly care?"
She stopped, thinking before shaking her head. "I don't even know. Maybe I dont care. But that just seems to simple." She said, lightening up.
"Not everything has to be complicated you know."
Harry emerged then. "Steph, Luke is an asshole. But we were talking this morning. He just feels like he let you down."
"He didn't let me down." She smiled. Actually smiled. "I am glad i fucked him. Not because it was him, just because it was someone."
I was officially confused. I looked at Harry who looked at me. "Alright..." He said.
"Anyway." Steph continued. "I have decided to accept George's invirtation for lunch."
"George doesnt do lunch Steph. George does girls. And lot's of them."
"But so did you." She fired back before apologising. "Sorry, I just, am happy that things are fucked...that sounded weird but whatever." She was way to happy right now. "Where is harper?" She asked, changing the subject.
"I have no idea..." I trailed off, turning to Harry. He shrugged so i got up and walked to Harper's door.
"Harps? Are you in there? Matty?" I asked, tapping softly.
"Ahh is Matty here too?" Steph questioned. I nodded as Harry joined us, banging loudly. No answer still. I opened the door carefully, hoping neither of them were naked.
There they lay, her head on his chest, his arm over her back, holding her close. The doona was over them but the clothes on floor signified nudity in the area. I sighed, seeing they were asleep but Steph gasped, walking over to the Hilltop Hoods Cd by harps bed where four joints lay, burnt right out. A single credit card lay next to them with small bits of white powder along the edge and on the CD. Cocain. Steph was freaking, while Harry moved over to shake Matty. Two small packets lay on the floor, obviously no longer filled with the white drug.
He stirred, eyes opening slowly. Harry was furious. "Are you trying to fucking OD? Two packets and four sticks man! You know your shit! What are you doing? And why are you bringing her into it?"
Matty groaned, rolling over and waking Harper. She stayed still for a little bit and i started to panick but after stroking her face a few times, Matty woke her. She was so far out of it that it made me cry. Why would she do this.
I realised Steph had left the room and went to find her, knowing this would bring up Zach.
Harry's POV
"Get dressed." I snapped at Matty turning out to look through the window.
He moved around for a few minutes tripping occasionally before standing next to me, shirtless but in jeans. Harper lay still, her breathing shallow.
"How much did she have?" I didnt look at him.
"Not much. She just wanted to shut off for a while."
"Make sure she is ok Matt." I said, coldly turning to go.
"Haz. I love her. I am not going to let anything happen to her."
"What the fuck do you even know about love. You just knocked her out." I said, pressing my finger against his chest. He sighed, running a hand over his eyes.
"I love her but i am no good for her. I know that. I will leave her alone, don't worry. I should probably just leave now."
"Good idea." I said, watching him grab his shirt and kiss her on the forehead. I followed him out, shutting the door.
We said goodbye to the girls. Steph was crying and kat was being amazing as usual.
"I am so sorry." I whispered in her ear.
"Hey, no harm done. It's not like she was going to say no. It's just as much her fault." God she was incredible.
"You don't have to be so nice." I said to her, making sure matty heard.
"I'll call you." She said, pushing me out the door and smiling.
But i worried the whole way home. What if Harper wasnt ok? I texted Kat, telling her to keep giving her water but mainly just let her sleep it off. But i also told her not to leave her alone. I had never been worried about anyone before but i knew how much those two girls meant to Kat so i made sure.
As for Matty, i stood behind him while he explained himself to Luke and George before i let him go back to sleep. They were both pretty pissed which made me happy but what i couldnt understand was why Harper was willing to follow him. She was such a good person and i was fucking worried. There was no way that she was really ok.
