i am extremely sorry for the people who cannot celebrate the Chinese New Year because of this virus that's happened in Wuhan City.
&& i pray for those who lost their lives to this virus and to the families heavily affected by this.
i pray that anyone going through this gets through safely and just know the world is thinking of you and praying for you.
I stared at the phone I held in my hands. Derek had left half an hour ago after he discussed his plan with me and handed me this phone, a way to contact him.
It was hard to wrap my head around. I did want to escape this life because I couldn't do it anymore but do I have the guts to also take down The Circle? I didn't even love Liam so why was it hard for me to accept this plan? Because of Harry?
Deep down I knew it was because of Harry. In order to break Liam I also had to break Harry. That meant betraying Harry..
I didn't know why I cared so much about Harry because it's not like we were partners. Was it because of this silly school girl crush I have for him? Do I really want to lead my life like this when I have a chance at escaping because of some guy that doesn't even like me back?
"Where were you?" A voice startles me. I quickly turned around holding the phone to my back.
Harry was leaning against the doorway his arms crossed across his chest. "Well?" He asks raising an eyebrow.
"I..I was just.. I needed air." I rushed out feeling flushed.
He starts to walk towards me. My eyes followed his every movement and I tightened my grip on the phone behind my back. If he catches me with this phone, it'll be the end of me.
"You okay?" He gently asks reaching me.
"Yes." I nodded. "Just felt a little dizzy." I continued my lie.
If Harry finds this phone then that means the whole plan will crumble. He will find out about Derek, my mother's hiding place and there will be absolutely no chance for me to escape.
His arms were about to snake around my waist when I reacted quickly in the only way I knew how.
My lips smashed against his. My arms quickly looped around his neck, now the phone was away from his view behind his neck. He slowly reacted and his hands rested at my waist.
Our lips moved in sync and I tugged at his curls making a subtle moan leave his lips into mine. He pushed me against the desk and easily lifted me up.
"You sure you're okay?" He asked smirking pulling away from my kiss. I nodded giving him fake smile. He was satisfied with my answer as his lips started to trail down my neck making my heart flutter in pleasure.
While Harry was distracted with kissing my neck. I carefully brought the phone down to the desk while my other hand was at his head gripping his hair keeping him positioned at my neck. I tucked the phone under me carefully so it was well out of his view.
"What the fuck?" Liam's voice suddenly yells making me push Harry away from me.
Harry turns around and scratches the back of his neck in awkwardness. I bring my hand up to tuck a stray strand that was falling into my face while looking at Liam's seething expression.
"You two fucking?" He snaps with agitation.
"What no!" I yelled.
"Seriously man?" Harry rolls his eyes at Liam.
"What do you mean seriously?" Liam yells crossing his arms. I could tell he was really annoyed at us. "Why the fuck are you kissing my sister?"
"Fuck man just leave it." Harry stepped away from me and brushed past a seething Liam.
My heart was beating so fast in my chest, I get the phone underneath me making me feel more nervous. Liam's eyes were glaring straight at me waiting expectantly for an answer.
"We're not.. fucking." I mumbled feeling uncomfortable even discussing this subject with my brother. "I swear!" I yelled.
"He's not a good man."
"And what you are?" I retort back crossing my arms over my chest. "Look Liam why do you even care?"
He stared at me for a few seconds and he seemed like he was having an internal having a battle with himself.
"I don't. Just warning you."
With that he turned around and left me.
A sigh of relief escaped my lips as I quickly hopped off the desk and tucked the phone into my chest. I didn't have anywhere else to hide it and there was no way I was just going to carry it in my hand and hope for the best. I brought my hair to the front and causally hid the front so the outline of a phone wasn't that obvious.
I followed Liam's path with Derek's words still echoing inside my head.
