Author note: This is the longest chapter I've written, i was going to slpit it up but i ened up leaving it because its really not that long, just longer then my first ones. Enjoy xx


I'm not sure how long we had been driving but I could tell we were almost at my apartment, neither of us had said anything the whole drive, the radio was the only thing stopping the car from being completely silent, I could see Harry looking at me from the reflection in my window, he had been glancing at me the whole drive, I don't know why or what he wanted, it would have helped if he had said one word to me after we walked out of the club.

I still had no ideas about what happened back there, it all happened so fast, was it a random group of idiots trying to have some fun or was it more serious than that, I wanted to ask harry because it was eating me alive but I didn't know how to ask. Was he involved in it or something, why did he have to go when everything started and we did he carry a gun with him?

I also couldn't stop thinking about what jack said about him never seeing harry with the same girl twice, I didn't care about the fact that he had a very active lifestyle, I wasn't one to judge him but why did he invite me back to the club or come to my work.

I was starting to feel bad about not talking this whole car ride, I don't know why I hadn't said anything, he wasn't talking so it made me overthink if should say something or not, I didn't want him to think I was upset or anything about tonight, it wasn't his fault and honestly, I was fine until Luke showed up, I hated how afraid I was of him but that only made me realise how safe I felt right now in this car.

I barely knew Harry but something I did notice from spending the small amount of time I had spent with him was how comfortable I was around him, I didn't even feel the need to go out and do something impulsive to prove to myself I could feel something besides fear, I was just content sitting in this car, it was a first for me and was kind of scary if I'm being honest.

Harry mumbled something bringing me back to reality.

"Huh, what sorry" I didn't hear him, he was being weirdly quiet.

"I said you can take my jacket with you, you can't walk around in just that bra," he said looking straight ahead.

"Oh, thank you, I can drop it at the club one night if you want?" he just nodded not even looking at me, he seemed pissed and it was making me feel so shit.

"Are you alright, did I do something?" I asked him not being able to keep it myself anymore.

He turned his head to look at me this time "No you didn't do anything, tonight was just a lot and now I'm....I just have some shit on my mind that's all"

The car came to a stop before I could say anything else, we were at my apartment, I know it might sound pathetic but I didn't want him to leave, I was scared if he left, I would fall back into the fear pit I was in earlier tonight.

He turned my car off and got out, he walked around my side and opened the door for me "Um, here you are" he said awkwardly, for someone who tore my shirt of my skin and had a gun pressed to my chest earlier he was being so weird, it was actually bothering me because I had been dragged in a building and held against my will by some random guy, been in a club shooting and had my ex fucking harass me all within a day and I wasn't being nearly as awkward as him.

"I don't care about anything that happened tonight you know?" I said, we were standing on the pathway outside my apartment building now.

"Anything?" he said looking kind of hurt and I realised how what I said might have sounded.

"The shooting I mean, it's fine, it really wasn't that bad" I explained.

"Eva, you've been around me for not even 24 hours and you could have been hurt twice, you should be furious with me for letting you be around those things," he said softly.
