Second Year Teacher

Chapter 41: Change of Plans

** hey guys, sorry for so long of a wait, I'm just really busy! hope you like this chapterrr **

Lexi's POV-

I looked straight at the ceiling, unsure of what to do first. I know Harry said not to call him, to just forget. But when you have a love like that, honestly you just can't forget.

As my tears died down, and my breathing slowed, I reached across the table for my little phone. I dialed Harry's number, straight from memory. The sound of ringing was killing me, I needed to talk to Harry, I already missed him. "You've reached Harry Styles, leave a message!" his cheery voice said, after the beep I was nearly silent for a few seconds, until I snapped out of it.

"Harry, I know you said not to call, but, I can't be without you. Its been about ten minutes and I've cried my eyes out. With a past like ours, there is no way I can forget. Haz, you were my only friend. I never told you that but, you really were. I didn't trust anyone after Peter, until I saw the way that Julia connected with you. They say kids and dogs are the best jude of character." I laughed a little before continuing, "I know that you might never come back, but I just want to be in your arms, and see your bright green eyes again. Just kiss you one more time. Harry, I-" I was cut off by the beep ending the message, and I was crushed.

"I love you" I set my phone on the table, and stared at the ceiling. How can I do this without him. He rushed out on me a day before my parents came, that seems nothing like him. My face fell to my hands as I remembered him promising me he wouldn't leave.

...

Harry's POV-

Alexis never trusted anyone, until she met me? I set my phone down, and started hitting my head against the wall in Louis' flat. God, only if Lexi knew I did this for her and Julia, and now Darcy. Tears welled up in my eyes, I won't even be able to witness the birth of my own daughter. I'll never be able to sing her to sleep, and tell her how beautiful she is, and how much she looks like her mum. Hell, I'll never be able to see the most beautiful girl in the whole world.

Lexi was everything to me, clearly I was everything to her. Her only love, her only friend. I kept listening to her message over and over, nearly memorizing every word she said. 

I felt tears dripping down my face, I needed to see her again. I banged on the door, "Louis!" I cried, hoping he would come and let me out. "Louis!" I cried again through my sobs, nearly breaking my hand with every pound to the center of the wooden door. "Loui-" my pleade was interuppted by the door opening. I fell onto my face, pushing myself up, I saw him standing there, with a big signature smile on my face.

"Hello Harry" Peter stood above me, smiling offering me a hand up. "I thought you were dead" I hissed through my teeth. "Indeed I was" he chuckled, showing me into the living room. "Why am I here, what are you and Louis going to do?" I chocked on my words, my hands holding my blotchy red cheeks. "That's for us to know, and you to find out Harold" Peter smiled, rubbing the top of my curls. "Get your hands off of me" I whispered sternly, as Peter began to nearly pull curls out of my head. "Your acting so brave, but there's no one around for you to impress pretty boy" Peter smiled, before slapping me across the face. I gripped my cheek and realigned my jaw befoe I spoke, "Why would I act brave? I am brave, brave for the people I love, and for the people who loved me" I chopped up the words quickly, throwing a punch at his face like I had too many times before.

Peter ducked, grabbed my wrist, and stood there smiling. "You think the ending to this story is going to be all happy and gung ho do you?" I looked at him, very confused. He tipped his head back and laughed, "Pretty boy, you think we're going to set you free, and you'll be back home with your picture perfect family life, don't you?" I kept a serious look on my face. "Well, your wrong" Peter chuckled again., "Since Alexis will never love me again, and I can't really see why she loves you. She'll have no one" Peter smirked. "Why do this to her, you already put her through enough pain" I said, trying to wrigle out of his grip."Because I can" Peter spat, before dragging me back to the little bedroom."Now wait here, I have someone to go see" he smirked, shutting the door.

I stared at my hands, debating on what to do. I looked around, and realized no one was around. I whipped out my phone, and scrolled through my contacts, and of course Louis or Peter had deleted Lexi's number. So I dialed it by heart, hoping she would pick up. "Harry?" she asked quietly, her voice wraspy and dry like when it sounds after she cries. "Lexi, listen to me" I said sternly. "Harry, why are you calling me? Where are you?" she whimpered. "I'll explain everything later, you still have the key to my old flat right?" I asked, crossing my fingers, hoping she didn't lose it in the move. "Yeah, its on my bedside table, why?" she questioned, very confused.

"Lexi, call your brother, tell him to pick you up, get the key, pack a bag for Julia, yourself, and me, and meet me at my old flat in about two hours alright?" I pleaded, hoping she would. "Okay" I could tell she was choking back tears, "I love you" she whispered. "I love you too Lexi" I said quickly, holding back my tears before hanging up I asked, "You speak french rigth?" I crossed my fingers again. "Yeah why?" Lexi replied. "Perfect" I said quickly, "See you later" I smirked to myself. I had two hours to find my way out of this completely random flat, and back to my old one. We're going to France.
