Possessive // h.s

Chapter ten

I couldn't believe the words that had left our mouths. He said he loved me, and I said it back. Do I really love him? I began to second guess my confession as a pair of hands wrapped around my waist and snapped me back to reality.

"Ella are you okay?" He looked down at me as his hands rested on my sides.
"Hmm? Oh yeah, I'm fine, just thinking that's all". I smiled up at him as I leaned my head against his chest.
"Are you sure, you look like you're worried about something. Please tell me what's wrong". He cupped my checks and looked at me with a playful pout, he knew exactly how to make me smile.
"Im just scared of what will happen now, I need to go home and show everyone I'm okay. But what if they arrest you because you kidnapped me. They won't understand our situation". I let how a breath I didn't even know I was holding in.
"I know, what you mean...and I don't know what to do either". He sighed, and took my hand to lace our fingers together. We leaned our foreheads together, closing the space in between us.

"I think I need to see my parents, maybe we talk to them and explain everything. They'll understand". I gave him a small smile before pecking his lips.
"And what if they don't". I could see worry and hurt in his eyes.
"Harry, we'll be fine. I promise no matter what happens I will never leave you". He gave me a smile as He pulled me outside.

We were actually leaving, going back to civilization.

*In Arizona*

We pulled up my parents drive way, it looked like they were both home so I turned to look at Harry.
"Harry, this may be hard, but we'll get through this together. Just let me talk and it'll be okay". I squeezed his hand for reassurance as we walked toward the door. My hands became sweaty and I was shaking throughout my whole body. I was scared of their reaction, of what they'll think if Harry. Just how they'll handle things.

I knocked on the door until I heard light footsteps walk toward the oak wood door.
"Can I help y-" she stooped mid-sentence as she looked me in the eyes. The colour drained from her face as her jaw hung open.
"E...Ella?" Tears began to trickle down her cheeks.
"Hi mom". Just as soon as I said that she pounced on me. She hugged me tight enough to the point where I was out of breath.
"Can't...breath", I let out a light giggle as she released me from her grip.
"How, I thought you were dead. No one could find you. We searched high and low for you honey. Are you okay, where have you been?!" She rambled on and threw multiple questions.
"Mom...mom! Im okay, I was scared, but Im okay now. I was captive in this one house far from here and It was scary at first but something changed". I looked up at Harry who still had his hand clasped in mine.

"Who's this", my mom directed her gaze from me to Harry.
"Um...he um, um...he saved me". Harry looked at me with a shocked expression and the adrenaline kicked in. I just lied to my mothers face. I couldn't bare to tell her he was my kidnapper.
"What do you mean?" She furthered the conversation, my mind was racing and I didn't know if she would believe it.
"He heard me screaming, I don't know how but he did. He came in and rescued me while the guy was out. We bonded and grew really close". I smiled down at our joined hands. She reached in to give Harry a hug, "thank you, thank you, thank you. You are an angel, I could never repay you enough for what you've done". And with that she pulled us inside to greet my dad.

A/N: I'm back! And no I did not fall off the face of the earth lol. But i was really happy with this plot twist and I hope you like it as well. Sorry I didn't proofread so caution there may be some mixed up words.
