A What? (47th Chapter)

.............................
Harmony's POV:

Harry drops the hug, snaking his arms to hold my waistline gently. He gives me a confused look, practically not getting why I am trembling in fear. “What happened? (He snaps his head to Liam) What went wrong?” Liam begins to open his mouth, but I speak before him:“Could we go upstairs to my room or yours?”




Harry’s head turns slowly towards mine, giving me a worrying look; this is going to be hard to narrate. He nods slowly, while lacing one hand with mine; guiding me gently upstairs. He opens the door to his room, walking us inside in a little hurry. I could sense that he is trying to calm himself down, and for that I appreciate his attempt. But what he can’t cover is the anxiousness filling his soul. “(I suggest) You better sit down.”





Harry takes my choice, placing his body in a sitting position on the edge of the mattress.“Harmony, you know I can’t control my calmness for a long time. So please, tell me what went wrong, love.” I nod, inhaling deeply before I begin: “I went to the market, and got what I wanted. (He nods impatiently) And then um… Luke showed up and he was trying to um… (I find it hard to put the situation in a correct format) He was just being rude, and then Liam showed up and solved the situation.”




Harry’s face reddens, but not in an affectionate matter. His teeth clench over each other, seeming like the upper bridge could crack the lower part in any second. His eyes dig holes in mine, giving me the essence of murderous venom. “(His voice roars, while he stands up to his feet) LIAM!”




I flinch backwards from the volume, feeling that my ears are pierced; turning me deaf. Liam walks into the room, panicking from the madness that stroke his friend. “(He pushes Liam over the wall, yelling in fury) WHAT HAVE I TOLD YOU TO DO? WHY ON BLOODY EARTH WEREN’T YOU BESIDE HER AT ALL TIMES, HUH? HAVEN’T I TOLD YOU TO KEEP AN EYE ON HER ALL THE TIME?”




Liam is used to Harry being angry; so he replies calmly: “Look, she went inside and I told her to put my number on speed dial. You know in case anyth-…” Harry interrupts Liam, by smacking his hand against the wall; near to Liam’s face: “(He spits) Speed dial? (He repeats in yells) BLOODY SPEED DIAL? THAT’S WHY YOU WENT WITH HER? I COULD HAVE TOLD HER TO CALL ME, AND NOT HAVE SENT YOU WITH HER IF THAT’S THE CASE! WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOUR MIND? ARE YOU MENTAL?”





I want to do something to fix this; I can’t stand here watching poor Liam take the entire blame. I place my hand over Harry’s shoulder, being as delicate as possible with the action. “(He whips his head, fuming his breath while I admit) I was the one that begged him to stay in the car. I wanted some privacy, Harry. besides nothing major happened, so please calm d-…”




He cuts me off and laughs in madness, showing how the insanity has taken over with his words: “PRIVACY FOR WHAT? DID YOU DO THAT INTENTIONALLY SO YOU COULD MEET THAT BASTARD? (My eyes widen in negative amazement from his accusations) DON’T LOOK AT ME LIKE THAT! YOU WANT LUKE, GO RUN TILL YOU REACH HIS PLACE. BETTER YET, PUT HIM ON ‘SPEED DIAL’ SO WHEN YOU LEAVE ME; YOU COULD BE WITH HIM! DAMN IT HARMONY! YOU ARE SUCH A-…”




He cuts himself, when he notices my silent tears tracing threads over both sides of my cheeks. “(I whisper in a depressed tone) A what, Harry? Go on, curse and swear at me… I was wrong to concider staying here with you.”
