New Start

The move in

*Hardin's POV*

We walk into my house and I head to my room with Tessa. I grab some clean clothes and as I'm about to go to the bathroom Tessa stops me. "Can I come?" She asks with the cutest smile. We get to the bathroom and I turn the water on. She undresses and I stare "What?!" She says and covers her body "Nothing, You're just so beautiful" I smile at her and she steps in the shower. I undress and join her. She stares and I bully her this time. She blushes and we wash each other.

When we get out I rap her into a towel. I rap my own towel around my waist and we walk back to our room. She basically lives with me because Molly hurt her. We get dressed and she puts on some of my joggers and my hoodie. I wear joggers and a black t-shirt.

"We can get your stuff from Molly's tomorrow if you want?" She nods and I set the alarm for 7:30 in the morning.

The alarm goes off and I grown Tessa kisses my face and tells me to get up. I stand up and she says she is wearing what she has on but that she is stealing my t-shirt because it smells like me. I smile and get a new shirt. We leave and drop Smith off. He hugs me and then Tessa and I'm happy that he likes her. Tessa and I head to school when we walk in. Molly is standing there with Logan.

"Hey!" Molly says and walks over to us. Logan follows but doesn't say anything. Molly gets closer to me and tries to kiss me. I push her away and Tessa slaps her. She stops and jumps at Tessa. Tessa gets on top of Molly and slams her head into the tile. Molly scratches at Tessa's face but Tessa pins Mollys hand to the ground. She punches Mollys face until she has two black eyes and a bloody nose. Tessa is crying and so is Molly. Tessa stands up and kicks her one more time then asks me to take her home.

*In the car*

"Can you take me to Mollys and get my stuff with me? Her mom should be at work." Tessa says and I nod.

We get there and Tessa goes to Molly's room and gets her stuff.She grabs a light blue suitcase and throws her clothes and make up in it. Once she is done she grabs me and heads to the bathroom. She grabs her tampons and her shower stuff. She shoves it in and we leave. When we get home it's around 1 in the afternoon. We have two hours until I have to get Smith. I call my mum and tell her that Tessa is staying with her because she doesn't have a home. Tessa is looking at me because I told my mum. My mum says it's okay and I smile at Tessa. She hugs me and I hug her and tell her she won't be hurt anymore. She smiles against my chest. I kiss her head and she puts her stuff away. She is all done so she pushes me on the bed and lies on my chest. She falls asleep. I sit there and stroke her back. I end up setting an alarm for 2:50 so I'm not late to get Smith and I close my eyes.

I wake up to a buzzing and I get up and check the time. It's 2:52 and I kiss Tessa and go get Smith. He glares at me like I'm bad for skipping school. He gets in and we drive. We talk about how he had to do that voice thing to his teacher, I love having a little brother. He smiles at me. When we get to the house he goes to the bathroom. He comes out and looks at me.

"What?" I ask him because he is looking at me like I'm an idiot.

"Tessa's stuff is in the bathroom...." he walks into my room and sees Tessa "does she live with us?" he asks and I nod. He rolls his eyes and walks into his bedroom. I take off my shirt and lay down next to Tessa. I wrap my arms around her and she shifts her body to me putting her head on my chest.
