Chapter 3

Harry's P.O.V.

As soon as Gil and I stepped inside Ursula's, I had the sinking feeling that something was wrong. I looked around the place and found the problem. The town drunkard who had his slimy hands all over Y/N.

Without even thinking, I walked over there in a flash and wrapped my arm around Y/N's waist with my left hand and delivered a swift punch to the guys face with my right. Y/N turned her face into my coat as the man fell to the floor.

Suddenly, when she realized her position, Y/N was gone from my arms.

"I... I..." she stuttered, before running out of the building and away from me.

I watched her leave, tears streaming down her face as she ran past the customers and Gil and Uma, who were chatting by the door.

When they noticed what had happened, Gil and Uma came over to me and immediately start asking a thousand questions at once.

"Are you okay?"

"What happened?"

"Is Y/N okay?"

"Why'd you punch him?"

"Why was Y/N crying?"

I put up my hand to silence them both.

"Oy mateys, one question at a time" I sighed.

"Yes, I'm fine, what happened is this thing had his hands all over Y/N so I punched him and saved her, I don't know if she's okay, she realized she was hugging me and then started stuttering and ran out crying." I explained hurriedly.

I walked over to the nearest table and sat down with my head in my hands.

"Why do I always manage to screw things up with her?" I wondered aloud.

"Well for starters," Uma said, sliding into the booth across from me. "You flirt with every single female you see, how is she supposed to know that you have feelings for her?"

I glared at her.

"That's different." I said bitterly.

"Oh really? How so exactly?" Uma pressed.

"I feel nothing for those sleekit twally wenches."

Now this got quite a reaction from Gil, who was used to my Scottish phrases by now; Uma on the other hand, just glared at me and muttered 'I don't want to know' under her breath.

"I just flirt with those girls because I want to work out all the kinks of what I'd like to say to Y/N. I want everything to be perfect for her when the moment happens." I sighed.

Uma's face softened the slightest bit.

"That's sweet actually, but seriously, you really expect her to know that from watching you get all handsy with other girls?"

"Excuse you, I am not handsy."

This time it was Gil's turn to let out a loud laugh.

"Okay mate, if you say so!" Gil said, choking back another laugh.

I glowered at the table in front of me. So what if they threw themselves at me? It's not like I'm not good looking, I know I am. But those other girls mean nothing to me. I'm always described as a womanizer, but that couldn't be farther from the truth. Hell, I haven't even had a real kiss yet.

I've only had two kisses in my life, and one was Gil as a dare. The other was some girl who threw herself on me and started kissing me like she was trying to suck my face off; it was terrible.

So yeah, I may be described and perceived as a womanizer, but I'm actually trying to save myself for Y/N. It's strange and I don't know how to describe it, but I can't possible picture the rest of my life without her in it.

I don't know much about love, my dad wasn't one to show much love, and I still have some scars from when he got too drunk, but I guess I sort of know. I mean I love my sisters. Frankly, CJ's a pain and Harriet is annoying, but I would do anything I could to protect them. I guess I also have a friendly, platonic sort of love with Uma and Gil because I would stop at nothing to help them too.

But with Y/N... I can hardly breathe when I'm around her. She makes me weak at the knees, like I'm going to fall and she's the only one who would ever be able to catch me. Her eyes, they look like a thousand stars are captured within her Y/E/C orbs; it takes my breath away every time I see them looking at me.

Her smile, don't even get me started on her smile. She may be the daughter of Hades, but her smile makes her look like an angel sent from heaven itself. The smile that lifts my spirit every time I see and somehow makes me calm every time I'm mad or upset. Unfortunately, that smile is rarely directed at me, but I still love when I do see it.

When I saw that drunkard all over her, my body instantly filled with rage and I wanted to give him permanent hooks so that he could never touch Y/N, or any other girls for that matter, ever again. I don't get angry often, but when I do it's often to the point of murderous rage, and it's usually centered around protecting Y/N.

I don't even like when other guys look at her, it makes my blood boil hotter than a fiery sea. (get it?) Uma told me it's jealousy, but I don't get jealous. But then again, this feeling only happens when I'm protecting Y/N. Maybe I am jealous.

Before I can think any further on this, Uma stands up from the booth.

"Where are you going?" I question the pirate captain.

"To check on Y/N. I mean she is my best friend after all." She replied with a face that could only mean she thought it was obvious.

"I should go, it's my fault." I argued

"And that's exactly why you shouldn't go."

"But..."

"Stay here. That's an order."

She walked out the doors of the restaurant and I slumped back into the booth, my head on the table.
