Chapter Text

Louis Tomlinson was a pretty high up member in one of the biggest gangs in England, working alongside Matthew Styles, who was just above him. The gang was run by Eric Styles, Matthew's father. The youngest Styles, Harry 18, was pretty well known among everyone, mainly for being an absolute nightmare to deal with. She was the definition of a brat, but still sweet, so she was ridiculously likeable. On top of that, Eric and Matthew were insanely protective of her, so there was no chance anyone could mess her about. In fact, everyone was protective over her, especially Louis, who obviously had a soft spot for her.

Looouuu. H

Yes? L

Are you busy? H

Not at the moment, why? L

I need a favor, or two. H

What this time? L

Wellll, Daddy locked me in my room again.. H

Okay? What does that have to do with me? L

I need you to get the key and let me out. H

Are you insane? Do you want your dad to kill me? L

Don't be so dramatic. He locked me in because of the meeting earlier and forgot to let me out. H

Okay, what's the other favor? L

I was wondering if you'd be my date to a party? H

Your date? L

Yeah, I can't really go single. Creeps will hit on me. H

Okay, fine. L

Yay! When will you be here with the key? H

I'm not sure, I'm in the process of looking for it. L

Okay! Well, I'm going to get ready. Wear all black please. H

Um, okay? I think I found the key, so I'm gonna change. L

Okay cutie! H

I hope a pair of black skinny jeans and a button up is okay. L

Of course! I'll see you soon. H

Harry set her phone on her dresser and started getting ready. She walked to the bathroom and decided to do her hair and makeup first. She did wear makeup all too often, so she went with a simple smokey eye look and some lipstick. About fifteen minutes later, Louis unlocked the girls' bedroom door and she walked out of the bathroom in only her panties. She gave Louis a small smile and walked over to the closet, grabbing a short, tight, black dress. She laid the dress on her bed and unzipped the back of it. 

Louis stared at the girl as she slipped into her dress and asked the man to help her zip it. He walked over to her and spoke. "This dress looks stunning on you." He admitted, zipping the dress up and turning her to face him. "So, fucking hot." He murmured, looking the girl over once more. Of course, Harry giggled, because she loved every ounce of attention she could get. "Remember, we are going to this party as a couple." She reminded the man, kissing his cheek. Louis only nodded in response, being pulled along, down to his car. As Louis drove toward the south side, Harry did a bump of cocaine off the dash of his Suburban. The man just rolled his eyes, knowing he was going to have to play babysitter tonight. Once they pulled into a parking spot on the street, Harry smiled over to Louis and spoke. "Do a line with me, please?" She asked, giving the man puppy eyes. Louis sighed and shook his head. "I would, but at least one of us needs to be sober tonight." Harry puffed her bottom lip out and muttered a small 'fine', before getting out of the car and dragging Louis inside. The girl's first mission was to get to the kitchen to make herself a drink. 

Standing at the kitchen island was Zayn Malik. Zayn was Eric Style's biggest threat, but Harry was completely oblivious, as the lad was a good friend of hers. Harry dropped Louis' hand and walked over to the man, pushing herself up on her toes and kissing his cheek. "Hey Z, I wanted to introduce you to my boyfriend Louis." Harry smiled, looking over to the lad. "Boyfriend? Interesting." Zayn smirked. Louis looked the man up and down, instantly remembering his face. "Hey babe, wanna go grab us some drinks from out back?" He asked, Harry agreeing and trotting off to the back yard. Once Harry was outside, Louis stepped closer to Zayn and looked him in his eyes. "What the fuck do you think you're doing?" He asked, clenching his fists. Zayn chuckled and smirked. "What's wrong Tomlinson? Worried I'm going to hurt your little girlfriend?" Louis held back the urge to hit Zayn and spoke again. "I don't want you around her, you understand? I'll have you gutted like a fish, just like your father." He seethed. Zayn clenched his jaw and walked off, just as Harry walked in with drinks. 

"Everything okay Lou?" Harry asked, handing Louis his drink. He took the cup from the girl and chugged it quickly. "Perfect actually." He muttered, slamming his empty cup on the counter. Harry frowned a bit and chugged her drink as well, just wanting to have a good time. She grabbed Louis' hand and dragged him to the living room to dance. Once the alcohol kicked in, Harry turned to face away from the man and began grinding her ass against him. Louis grabbed Harry's waist and let his hands guide her hips as she swayed her hips side to side, grinding on him slowly. He was enjoying himself greatly, and he figured she was just having fun, drunk fun. Louis wasn't exactly sober, but he certainly wasn't drunk either, he knew what was going on. After the song ended, Harry dragged Louis back to the kitchen to do some shots with her friends. Louis watched the girls take several shots, losing count after at least six. He himself had four, but was more alcohol tolerant than Harry, who was now in the stumbling stage. The girl turned toward the man, giggling softly and wrapping her arms around his neck. Before he could even process what he was doing, Louis pressed his lips to Harry's in a soft, passionate kiss. Harry kissed back hungrily, lacing her fingers through the man's hair. After a moment or two, she pulled away and looked into the man's deep blue eyes and spoke. "I need you." She whispered. Louis was taken aback by the girl's eagerness, but nodded softly. "Can we go back to your place? Please?" She asked, practically begging. Louis nodded once again and pulled Harry along to his car. Once they got in, Harry pressed her lips to the man's again, much more needy this time. Louis was breathing heavily , trying to catch his breath during their heated make out session. His hands roamed over Harry's body, as he slipped his tongue into her mouth, letting out a low moan. Harry pulled away and spoke breathlessly. "Drive." Louis didn't bother to buckle up , he just turned the car on and drove to his place. 

Once the two made it to Louis' place, Harry practically jumped in the man arms before they got inside. Louis shut the front door behind them and kissed the girl hungrily. He held her thighs tightly and walked them down the hall to his bedroom. He laid her down on the bed softly and pulled away, looking down at her. Harry frowned deeply and spoke. "Come back." She pouted. The man chuckled softly, working with nimble fingers to unbutton his shirt, and throw it on the floor. He lowered himself back down to the girl and slipped his fingers into her dress, slowing running his fingers into her panties. He began to rub her clit lightly, before kissing her neck, sucking it hard enough to leave a large mark. Harry moaned loudly, gripping Louis' shoulders with her nails. The girl moved her hips forward so Louis' fingers would slip inside of her. As soon as they did, she moaned once again and looked up at the lad. "Please fuck me, Louis." The man loved hearing the girl beg, so he teased her a bit. "Be patient, I will." He said, as he began to slip two fingers in and out of her wet pussy. Harry arched her back, as Louis moved his fingers in and out of her. She gripped the sheets tightly and moaned Louis' name. "You like that?" He asked, quickening his pace, while he moved his other hand up to touch the girl's face. He rubbed her lip softly, placing his thumb in her mouth. He was enjoying teasing her so much. Harry gently sucked at the man's finger and sat up a bit. "Please Lou, I need you." She whispered, panting a bit. 

Louis smiled softly and muttered a small, 'okay', thrusting his fingers deeply one more time and removed them slowly. He sucked his fingers clean as he watched the girl squirm. He worked quickly to remove his jeans and boxers, kicking them to the side. He ran his fingers up Harry's thighs, pushing her dress up so it was out of the way. He slipped her panties off and lowered himself down to her. "Tell me what you want. I want to hear you beg." He whispered in her ear. "I want you to fuck me, rough. Choke me..pull my hair." Harry begged, wanting to be mistreated by the man. Louis smirked hearing the girl's words, before placing soft kisses along her neck. He grabbed his cock and stroked it a few times, before he slid it into Harry's pussy, slow at first. He let out a low moan and wrapped his hand around her throat, as he began fucking her roughly. The girl moaned, loving every second of this. "Harder." She breathed. Louis breathed heavily, pushing himself deeper, moaned loudly. He quickened his pace, pounding into her harder, throwing his head back. "Fuck, you feel so fucking good." He panted out, tightening his grip on her throat. "F-fuck Lou, I'm gonna cum-" Harry breathed, body starting to tremble. "Cum for me baby." He whispered before feeling shivers up his spine, growing closer to cumming himself. "I'm gonna cum too." He moaned, before bottoming out in Harry's pussy. Harry screamed out, cumming around Louis' cock, legs shaking as she gripped at the sheets. Louis moaned out as he came deep inside the girl, before pulling out slowly. Harry leaned up and pressed her lips to Louis'. "I could get used to that." She hummed between breaths, jumping as Louis' phone began ringing. Louis leaned down and picked his phone up. "Fuck, it's your brother." He cursed, answering the call. "Hey mate, what's up?"

"Are you with my sister?" Matty asked angrily. He was very protective of his sister and didn't need his friends fucking around with her feelings. Louis swallowed hard and spoke. "Yeah, yeah I am. Why?" He asked, placing his hand over Harry's mouth to keep her quiet. He was scared what Matty would say next. "Where are you? Why are you with her?" The man asked, growing angrier. Harry had been locked in her room for a reason. Now knowing Louis let her out, pissed him off even more. Louis sat on the edge of the bed and sighed. "We are just at my place hanging out." He spoke. "You let her out of her fucking room to take her to your house? What are you guys doing?" Matty asked. "We just came back here have dinner and watch a movie." Louis lied, getting up from the bed, telling Harry to fix herself, slipping his own clothes on. "Is there something going on between you two?" Matty asked sternly. "No. I told you we were just hanging out. Why are you acting like a mad man?" He asked, fiddling with the buttons on her shirt. "Because you let her out of her fucking room! I don't want the two of you hanging out anymore, you're lucky I don't tell my fucking dad. Bring her home now." He spat, hanging up the phone. Louis sighed and spoke. "Your brother is a fucking prick." He huffed, throwing his phone on the bed, fixing his shirt up. "Look, that was amazing, but your brother is going to kill me." He smiled, kissing Harry's head softly. The girl looked up at Louis a bit worried and asked. "What did he say?" Louis shook his head and spoke. "Just mad at me for letting you out of your room. So if he asks, we came here and had dinner and watched a movie. I'd be dead if he found out we fucked." The man sighed. Harry frowned and looked up to Louis. "I didn't mean to get you in trouble." 

"Harry, it's fine. I'm okay, honestly." He lied. Harry sighed and nodded. "We should probably get me back before Matty has your head." She spoke, grabbing her phone. She felt horrible for getting Louis in trouble with her brother. She really liked Louis and always had, but Matty would never let anyone be with her. He was so overprotective. Louis nodded softly and spoke. "Yeah, let's go. He seemed really mad." Harry nodded and followed Louis out to the car. She was terrified for what was waiting at home for her.

The car ride to the Style's house was full of Louis and Harry being goofy and singing along to the radio together. When they pulled up, Matthew was already outside waiting. Louis put the car in park and swallowed thickly. "Should I get out?" He asked Harry, meekly staring out the window at Matty. Before Harry could respond, Matty walked up to the car and shoved Louis as he got out. "What the fuck is wrong with you?" He spat. Louis stumbled back, nearly falling on his ass. "What the hell man?! I didn't do anything wrong!" He yelled, shoving Matty back. "You're being a dick!" Harry slammed her car door and screamed at her brother. "Matty! What the fuck?" She walked over and stood between the two boys, giving them both a look. "Go inside Harry," Matty spoke. "You're not even supposed to be out of your room." Louis spoke up, trying to keep his anger at bay. "Leave her out of this, she didn't do anything." He said, pushing Harry behind him to protect her. "You're acting like a psycho, what's your deal?" He asked. Matty stayed silent, lunging toward the man and knocking him to the ground. Harry screamed as her brother started beating the fuck out of Louis. She ran inside and yelled. "Daddy! Please come help! Matty's going to kill Louis!" 

Louis laid limp on the ground as Matty threw punch after punch, blood running from his nose and mouth, heavily. He could feel his chest tightening, right before his vision went black. Eric ran outside and pulled Matty off of the bleeding lad. "What the fuck is your problem?" He yelled. Harry ran over to Louis and kneeled down next to him. "Daddy, he needs to go to the hospital." She spoke, tears still rolling down her face. Eric yelled at Matty and told Harry to get in the car. He picked Louis up off the ground and laid him in the back seat, heading to the hospital. Harry frowned softly and looked up at her father. "This is all my fault." She whispered. Eric looked to his daughter and sighed deeply. "Where were you? Why did you leave?" He asked softly, trying not to get mad at the girl. "It's not your fault, Matty need to learn to keep his anger in check." Harry nodded and spoke. "You promise not to get mad?" She asked nervously. Eric took and deep breath and nodded. "I asked Louis to take me to a party, because I knew I wasn't allowed to go alone." The man sighed and spoke. "Well, I'm glad you went with someone." He spoke calmly. "But you were left home for a reason, you weren't supposed to go anywhere." Harry nodded and spoke. "I know, I'm sorry." She murmured, looking down to her lap as they pulled up to the hospital. Eric carried Louis inside and Harry followed after sadly.

The man explained to the hospital staff what had happened to Louis and let them know he had lost quite a bit of blood. In no time they were brought back to a room and seen by a doctor. "Is he going to be okay?" Eric asked, as the doctor began hooking the boy up to check all of his vitals. "It looks like he has a broken nose and a concussion." The doctor spoke, just as Louis began to wake up. "Mmm." Louis mumbled, slowly opening his eyes. He looked to Harry, eyes wide. Hi head was throbbing and everything felt so fuzzy. "Where am I?" He whimpered out, raising his hand to his head. Harry's heart broke as the lad spoke. "You're in the ER, you and Matty got in a fight." She whispered. Louis winced as the girl spoke. "My head..it's throbbing." He said, reaching up to touch his head. He brought his hand back down and his stomach churned at the sight of blood on his hands and shirt. "I think I'm gonna be sick." He mumbled, leaning over the side of the bed to vomit. The hospital decided to keep Louis overnight, but Eric wouldn't let Harry stay with him. She walked over to the lad and said her goodbyes, Eric doing the same. 

When they made it to the car, Eric started the drive home. "Daddy, can I talk to you about something?" The girl asked softly. "Yeah Harry, what is it?" Eric asked nervously. "I like Louis." Harry admitted. The man looked over to his daughter and nodded. "I figured. Does he feel the same?" He asked. "I honestly don't know, but he faked being my boyfriend at the party so people would leave me alone." Eric chuckled and spoke. "Just because he pretended, doesn't mean that the feelings are mutual. Do he say or do anything that made you think he might like you?" He asked. There was no way in hell Harry could tell her dad that she and Louis had sex, so she lied. "Uhm, after the party we went back to his house and cuddled while we watched a movie." She murmured, hoping her dad wouldn't go off. "That's sweet, he's a nice kid. If you like him just be honest with him." The man shrugged. Harry looked over at her dad, a bit confused why he was so okay with all of this. "I'm sorry all of this happened love." He finally spoke, pulling into the driveway. "It's okay, just a bit worried Matty's will hate me, considering Louis is his best friend." She admitted. "I don't think your best friend would nearly beat you to death. Besides, it doesn't matter what Matthew thinks, he needs to learn to let you control your own life. So do I." Eric sighed. Harry smiled softly and hugged her father. "Thanks daddy." She smiled, heading up to her room to message Louis.

Hey Lou, how're you feeling? H

[Short delay] Hey, I was sleeping. My head's still throbbing, but I guess I'm doing okay. L

I'm sorry, and I'm sorry for what happened. I didn't expect Matty to act the way he did. H

Don't worry about it. I had a great time with you. Wish you were here right now. L

Me too. I told daddy we went to a party and went to yours after for a movie. He was completely fine with it. H

Really? That's surprising. L

Yeah, I know. But I'm going to head to bed, so I can wake up early and come see you. H

Alright. Goodnight Haz, sweet dreams. L

You too Lou. H

The next morning, Louis was released from the hospital and Eric and Harry picked him up. He was very happy to see the girl, holding her hand from the front seat. Once they arrived at Louis' flat, Harry helped him out of the car and looked to her dad. "Daddy, can I hang out with Louis for a little while?" Eric nodded and told her to call him when she was ready to come home. Harry helped Louis inside the flat and sat down on the couch next to him. Louis looked over to the girl and caressed her cheek softly with his thumb. "You're so pretty." He said in a funny way, still a bit loopy from the meds he was on. His nose was heavily bruised and so were his cheeks and mouth. Harry smiled softly at the man and giggled. "I'm not pretty, you're just high." Louis shook his head softly and looked up to the girl. "You are pretty, I'm only a little loopy." He defended. 

Harry looked down to her lap and gently played with her fingers, biting her lip. "Lou? Can I be honest with you?" She asked softly. Louis looked to the girl and spoke. "Of course. What's up?" The girl sighed softly and looked up at the man. "I like you." She admitted. Louis chuckled lightly and rested his hand on the girl's thigh. "Yes love, I know that. You're not very good at hiding it." He teased. Harry blushed, looking away from the man. Louis gently grabbed the girls face and turned it toward him. "I like you too H." He smiled. The girl was taken aback by the man's words and smiled widely. "Oh." She said simply, not sure how to respond. "Would you want to order take out and watch a movie?" She asked, quickly changing the subject. Louis smiled and spoke. "Sounds perfect to me love. But before we order food, could you help me change?" The girl nodded happily and helped Louis up from the couch. Louis stumbled a bit on his feet as Harry led them to the bedroom. "I want some pajamas please." He spoke, plopping down on the bed. Harry grabbed a pair of plaid pants and a white t-shirt, handing them to the man. "Perfect." He spoke, slowly sliding his jeans down. Harry helped him take his jeans off and put the pajama pants on. "Lift your arms." Louis lifted his arms and Harry pulled his shirt off, replacing it with the new one. "Thank you, feels much better." Louis smiled softly, throwing his clothes on the floor. Harry smiled and helped the man back to the couch. Louis grabbed the remote and put Monsters Inc on. He yawned softly and leaned his head against Harry's shoulder, allowing his eyes to flutter shut for a moment.

"Louis, can I ask you something?" Harry asked softly. "Hmm, yeah of course. What is it?" Louis asked. "After you get better, can we go on a few dates and see where things go?" She asked, shooting her shot. "Yeah, I mean..we did already have sex. But, I guess we should take a step back and take things slow." He said softly, lifting his head and kissing the girls cheek gently, being careful of his lips. "I'm just not sure I want to jump right into a relationship." She admitted softly. "Yeah, me neither. I mean I've never really been in a relationship; it sounds a bit scary." Louis chuckled. Harry looked to the man, a bit shocked. "You've never been in a relationship before?" He shook his head. "No, never. I've never really liked anyone seriously enough." He shrugged. "I guess I'm just a bit shocked because you are so good looking." Harry smiled. "Even all bruised up?" Louis asked. "Yes." She smiled. "You're sweet, but good looks only get you so far." The man spoke, chuckling lightly. "I really like you, you're so pretty, kind, caring and best of all you are yourself." He said, smiling widely. "I love everything about you, and I think it's crazy you could ever like me, I mean I'm just..me." Harry smiled and spoke. "I hope we make it as a couple, if we become one." "You think we won't" Louis asked frowning a little. "No, no. I mean like, what if you decide you want an older, prettier girlfriend?" The girl spoke. "No, I can promise you that I won't" Harry nodded softly and smiled. "Mmm, can we cuddle? I'm a bit sleepy." Louis asked quietly, yawning as he did. "Yes love." Harry smiled, moving closer to Louis. "You're so warm..feels nice." He murmured, hugging Harry close. The two stayed cuddled up for a few hours before Louis fell asleep. Harry smiled down at the man and got her phone out to message Zayn.

Hey Z, could you give me a ride? H

Hey, yeah. Where are you? Z

[Address attached] I'm at Louis', Thanks. H

Harry waited outside for Zayn and smiled when he pulled up. She got in happily and buckled her seatbelt. "Hey, ready?" Zayn asked, looking to Harry and smiling softly. The girl watched out the window, smiling as they drove in the direction of her house. "So how was the rest of the party?" She asked. "It was alright, how was your night?" Zayn asked. " Honestly, not very good. My brother put Louis in the hospital." She admitted. "Jesus, are you guys okay?" He asked looking to Harry, placing a hand on her shoulder. Harry nodded softly and looked down at her lap as she got a text. 

H? Are you okay? L

Hey love, sorry. I didn't want to wake you. H

It's okay, was just surprised to see you gone when I woke up. Are you home? L

Not yet, will be soon though. H

Okay, I'll see you tomorrow. L

Alright love, sweet dreams. H

Harry smiled to herself and looked up, noticing they weren't going the right way. She looked over to Zayn and spoke. "Where are we going?" Zayn smiled from the driver's seat and spoke. "We are going to have some fun, I've waited a long time for this." Once the man pulled up to his house, he dragged Harry out of the car and took her inside. He guided her down to the basement and threw her on the bed. "You're mine now." Zayn hummed straddling the girl, pinning her against the bed. Harry breathed heavily, tears falling down her face as she heard him speak. "Zayn, please let me go." She cried out, trying to move her arms. "Please." She begged meekly, crying harder. Zayn slapped the girl in the face and yelled. "I'm not fucking letting you go! Bet you didn't know your father was protecting you from my family, huh? Why do you think he never let you out of his sight?" Harry whimpered as she was slapped again. "Stop it. Please don't do this. I thought you were my friend?" She cried out, trying again to free her arms. "Let me go!" She screamed at the top of her lungs. "I was never your friend." Zayn chuckled, walked over to the closet. He ripped off a large piece of duct tape and put it over Harry's mouth and wrapped her wrists and ankles up as well. "Now, I have to go take care of some business. If you scream, I'm coming down here with a gun." Harry shook her head, unable to speak, and she cried harder. She laid with her hands taped behind her back and watched as Zayn walked away. She had no idea what to do, so she sat and waited. She cried softly to herself, wishing Louis was her to save her.

The next morning Eric called Louis, when he realized his daughter never made it home and her phone was going straight to voicemail. Louis stirred away as he heard his phone going off, rubbing his eyes softly before he answered it. "Hello?" He asked, voice still a bit raspy. "Hey Lou it's Eric, Harry's phone is going straight to voicemail. Can I talk to her?" The man asked. "Harry? She went home around six yesterday." He spoke, a bit confused. "She's not home?" He asked nervously, sitting up in bed. "No, I figured when she didn't come home that she'd just stayed the night." "Well she's not here. I woke up yesterday and she was gone. I messaged her and she said she was almost home, so I assumed you picked her up." He spoke, stomach beginning to turn with worry. "I didn't pick her up." Eric sighed, beginning to worry himself. "What? No..that's..no,no." Louis rambled, standing from his bed. "I think I know who she might be with." He nearly whispered. "Who?" Eric asked curiously. "Zayn." Louis whispered. "Malik? Are you fucking serious?!" The man yelled. "They know she's my only fucking daughter. They said if they ever got ahold of her, they'd kill her!" The yelled, becoming very angry. "No..no, no. This is all my fault. I should have never agreed to take her to that stupid fucking party. We have to find her." The lad spoke, starting to cry. Eric was livid, he told Louis to meet at the house as soon as possible. Before Louis could respond, Eric hung up. He got out of bed and grabbed a pair of jeans and a shirt throwing them on quickly, before slipping on his shoes. He was so scared, he just hoped the girl was okay. Once he was dressed, he got in his car and sped over to Harry's place. 

Hary was laying on her side, still crying softly. She was trying to rip the tape from her wrists, but she couldn't get a good enough grip. She quickly stopped and laid limp, when she heard the door at the top of the stairs open. She squeezed her eyes shut, not wanting to see Zayn's face, of anyone for that matter. She whimpered softly as she heard footsteps quickly approaching. Just as the girl opened her eyes, a blonde lad came into view with a plate of food and set it on the bedside table. "I'm gonna take the tape off. If you scream, I'm shooting you. Zayn's orders." The man moved closer to Harry and gently took the tape from her mouth. Next, he removed the tape from her wrists and ankles, handing her the plate of food. "I'm Niall. you'll probably be seeing a lot of me." Harry pushed the plate away from her and brought her knees to her chest hugging them tightly. She didn't say a word as she stared at the wall, small tears falling down her face. "Please...just let me go." She begged, looking to the man. "Please." Niall sighed, he never wanted to do any of this to begin with. But of course, he did as he was told, or he was punished. "Listen Harry, I'm going to be a lot nicer than the others, but you and I both know I can't let you go. So just eat, I don't want to see you die of starvation." Harry swallowed thickly and nodded, taking the plate with hesitation. "What other guys?" She asked meekly, scared of what they might do, especially Zayn. She took a small bite of the food and chewed it slowly. "Liam and Nick. They aren't nice, I promise. Listen, I'm sorry they took you, but your dad did some pretty dirty shit to Zayn's dad." He explained. "The why are they punishing me?" She asked, taking another bite of her food. She looked up at Niall softly and spoke. "Can I have some water?" Niall nodded and spoke. "They know, you are your dad's greatest treasure, so until they get what they want, you're stuck here." The man ran upstairs and grabbed Harry a bottle of water, handing it to her when he came back down. She quickly took the bottle and chugged most of it. " Can I ask you something?" She spoke quietly, setting the half empty water bottle on the bedside table. "Course." Niall smiled. Harry swallowed hard, "Is Zayn coming back?" She asked timidly. "Not for a few days." The girl sighed and nodded. "Good." She was relieved to know she was somewhat safe for now. "He'd be fucking stupid to come back here now." She added. She knew her father would come looking for her, and if Zayn was here, he'd be a dead man. "Zayn's a good guy, just got wrapped up in some bad shit." Niall spoke. Harry shook her head, "No, he's a fucking prick. I thought he was going to rape me! He can rot in fucking hell for all I care." She spat angrily, looking at the lad. "Like I said, he's wrapped up in some pretty bad shit. And he's pretty heavy into drugs at the moment." The man explained. 

Harry sighed and placed her empty plate on the bedside table as she licked her lips, looking to Niall. " I need to use the loo." Niall bit his lip softly, knowing the only bathroom was upstairs. "I'll take you, but you can't run, or both of us will be dead." Harry promised and followed the man up the stairs. She knew she wouldn't be able to fight anyone off and she needed to keep her cool if she ever wanted to get out of here. Once they made it to the bathroom, the girl looked to Niall. "Can I have some privacy please?" She asked, standing in the doorway. She didn't want some random guy watching her use the toilet. Niall shut the door and waited for her to get done. Harry was quick, she wanted to look for something to help her, but she figured she'd better just play it cool. She opened the door after washing her hands and spoke. "All done." She murmured. Niall smiled at the girl and led her back downstairs. "Y'know, you're really pretty." The man spoke. "I know, Louis told me." She stated, giggling softly. "But thank you, I'm flattered." She whispered meekly, trying to seem trustworthy. "Louis? Tomlinson?" The man asked curiously. "Y-yeah, do you know him?" She asked. Niall smiled, thinking about the lad. "Yeah, we used to be best mates in school. Great lad." "Oh, well I'm guessing he's not going to feel the same when he sees you here." She shrugged, walking over to the bed. "What do you mean?" The man asked. "He's obviously going to come looking for me, and if he sees you here, it's not going to be pretty. Especially since he knows you, he might just kill you." She spoke seriously. "Louis wouldn't do that. Do you have his number on you?" He asked. "I do, where's my phone?" Harry asked. "No idea, what's his number?" Niall asked. Harry gave the man Louis' number, laying down softly. "He's probably not going to answer." The girl shrugged. "Probably already out looking for me." Niall sent a text to Louis, waiting for a response anyway. 

Hey Louis, it's Niall. How've you been man? N

Niall? Hey wow, haven't heard from you in a long while! I've not been the best, I just got out of the hospital yesterday and now my boss's daughter is missing. L

I'm sorry to hear that mate. Listen, I know where she is. I'm with her right now, she's safe. N

What?! Why are you with her? Where is she? L

The Maliks. They are heading out of town tonight. If you can wait until 3am, I can meet you somewhere. N

Okay. Can I please talk to her? L

Yeah. N

Okay, Thanks. L

Lou.. N

Harry, are you okay? L

I am now. I'm just scared something bad is going to happen. N

Don't worry love, Niall is bringing you to meet me later tonight after the Maliks leave. L

I know, but I'm scared Zayn may come back. And there are other guys too, what if they come back? I feel like my heart is going to beat out of my chest. N

Calm down baby, it will be okay. L

I'm sorry, all of this is my fault. N

No, it's not love. L

I'm just scared I may never see you again. N

Niall rubbed circles in Harry's back as she began to cry. He took the phone back from her and messaged Louis again. 

Hey mate, she's really upset I'm gonna calm her down. N

Okay, please take care of her. I'll talk to you later. L

Harry sat crying heavily into her arms, as Niall rubbed her back. She could barely catch her breath as she cried. She began to rock back and forth lightly, as she held her knees to her chest. "Harry, please calm down." Niall cooed. The girl shook her head, "I can't." She cried out, turning to Niall slowly, allowing herself to find comfort in the boy. She let her legs go and lifted her head, before pulling Niall into a hug. She didn't speak, she just buried her head into his chest and cried heavily. Niall wrapped his arms around the girl and whispered sweet nothings into her ear. Suddenly, footsteps were heard approaching the basement. The door swung open, and Zayn walked in. "Alright man, we are heading out. We will be back in a few days, it's a pretty big delivery. And as for you Harry, try anything stupid and you're fucking dead." Harry whimpered as Zayn spoke, holding onto Niall tighter and keeping her eyes glued shut. She didn't want to see Zayn, she just wanted to get the fuck out of there.  

Niall nodded as Zayn spoke, holding onto Harry softly. "Don't worry, I'll make sure she doesn't do anything. Just worry about the delivery, she'll be here when you get back." He lied, squeezing Harry tightly. Zayn smiled and spoke. "Alright man, call me if you need anything." "Will do." Niall spoke, watching the man leave the basement. Harry slowly opened her eyes and sniffled softly. "Is he gone?" She asked, lifting her head up to look at Niall, wiping her eyes gently. "Yes, he's gone." The man spoke, holding the girl close. "Good." She spoke, climbing into Niall's lap, hugging him tightly. "I'm so scared." She whispered, burying her head into the man's neck as she wrapped her legs around his waist loosely. She didn't even care if he was a stranger, she just needed comfort. "Harry love, you're safe now that he's gone." He hugged Harry tightly, he enjoyed the feeling of her cuddling into him. "I know, I just miss Louis." She whispered sadly. "You'll see him soon, I promise." Niall smiled down to the girl. "I believe you." She whispered, pulling away from Niall's neck. She gave him a soft, sweet peck on the cheek. "Thank you." She smiled, letting her body sink into the man's, feeling oddly safe in his arms. Niall kissed the top of the girl's head and spoke. "Wanna get some rest before we have to go?" Harry nodded slowly. "Will you stay? I don't want to be alone if anyone else comes." She admitted, letting her arms fall to Niall's lower back, gripping his shirt tightly. She let out a small breath, still shaking a bit. "Of course." Niall smiled, getting up to shut the light off. He crawled up under the covers and laid down, so the girl could cuddle into him. Harry cuddled close into Niall's chest, pulling the blanket up close around them. She then wrapped her arm around his, resting her hand on his shoulder. She let out a shaky breath, trying to calm her nerves. She allowed her eyes to flutter shut, as she sank into the blonde man's body, soaking up his warmth, wishing it was Louis. Niall wrapped his arms back around the girl and drifted off to sleep.

Chapter Text

Harry slept for what felt like forever, but in reality, it was only about 2 hours. She was still cuddled close to Niall, but she could tell something was wrong. She slowly opened her eyes and gasped, jumping back from Niall. She stared hard at the end of the stairs and shook her head, realizing there was nobody there. Niall stirred awake and sat up. "What's wrong love?" He asked, rubbing his eyes. "Nothing, I thought I saw someone, I'm sorry." The girl spoke, calming her breathing. "Can you turn on the light?" She asked softly, swallowing thickly. "Course." The lad spoke, getting up to flip the light on. He saw that it was nearly 2 a.m and walked back over to the bed, laying down. "I'm sorry, I really thought I saw someone." Harry whispered, covering herself back under the blankets, snuggling into Niall again, this time she was the little spoon. She laid with her back to Niall and closed her eyes tightly, trying to think of something happy. "Ssshh, it's okay love." Niall ran his fingers in circles on the skin of Harry's arm, humming a sweet melody in her ear. Harry sank into the man's touch and let out a deep breath. She enjoyed his touch, it felt nice, it calmed her well. She felt safe, truly safe. "Thank you." She whispered quietly. 

Niall had to admit, he kinda liked Harry. He wished so bad, that he could kiss her right now. "For what?" He asked. "For making me feel safe." The girl whispered. Niall smiled and kissed her shoulder, trailing down her arm a bit. "You're welcome." He hummed. Harry gasped lightly, as Niall kissed her arm softly. She laid still for a moment, before moving to prop her head up on her hand. Niall stopped, getting the feeling he made the girl uncomfortable. "I-I'm sorry." The lad spoke. "No, it's okay.." She whispered softly. She truly didn't mind, she just wished it was Louis. "I was just surprised is all." She admitted softly. Niall cuddled back into the girl and planted one last kiss on the girl's shoulder. As the lad kissed her shoulder, Harry placed her free hand in his hair and breathed in deeply. She hummed softly and opened her eyes, turning toward the man, as he pulled away from her shoulder. She bit her lip and kissed him sweetly without thinking. She didn't even register what was happening, she let her body take over as she felt so vulnerable. 

Niall kissed the girl back and pulled her closer, closing the space between them. He moaned lightly at the kiss, enjoying every second of it. Harry turned so her chest was pressed against Niall's. She kissed him back passionately and ran her finger through his hair, moaning low. She bent her leg and wrapped it around Niall's waist, pulling his hips closer to hers. The man grabbed Harry's thighs and trailed up to her ass, squeezing it lightly. He ran his tongue along the girl's bottom lip, asking for entry. Harry pushed her hips forward, arching her back as she moaned softly. "Fuck me." She hummed, breathlessly. "Please." She couldn't control herself, she craved affection. Niall was taken aback by how eager the girl was, but he didn't hesitate. He stripped down to only his boxers, while Harry got completely naked. He admired the girl's beauty and grabbed her hips, pulling her to the edge of the bed. He trailed kisses down her thighs and looked up at her. “Can I taste you?” Niall asked making sure it was okay. Harry nodded quickly, spreading her legs wide, "Yes." She whispered, closing her eyes softly, biting her lip as she waited for Niall to start. Niall leaned in and lightly licked Harry’s clit. Loving the taste, he got a bit more aggressive, licking and sucking her pussy hard. Harry arched her back and moaned loudly, "Oh, fuck!" She screamed, feeling amazing and completely carefree as Niall ate her pussy. "Fuck, that's feels amazing." She whispered breathlessly, moving her hands to Niall's hair, running her hands though it roughly. She rolled her hips forward eagerly, moaning softly.

As Niall ate the girl out, he slipped his boxers off. He trailed up Harry’s body and kissed her lips shoving his cock into her while squeezing her tits.  The girl moaned loudly, breathing heavy as Niall slipped in his cock. She bit her lip hard and allowed her body to relax completely as Niall began. She placed her hands on Niall's still holding her tits and pushed her hips forward softly. “Do you like being choked babe?” Niall asked picking up his pace. Harry nodded eagerly, "Yes... choke me, choke me hard." She begged moaning low as he quickened his pace. The man reached his hand up to the girl's throat, squeezing hard as he thrusted into her at a quick pace. “Fuck, so tight. You like that baby? Beg for it.” 

Harry rolled her eyes to the back of her head as she moaned loudly, "Fuck me harder..." she pleaded softly, gripping the bed sheets tightly. She arched her back high, "Harder." She yelled out breathless. Niall thrusted into her a few times before pulling out. “Flip over and put that ass up.” The girl smiled and quickly flipped on her stomach, she lowered her chest and put her ass in the air. She lowered her knees a little bit, "I'm ready." She whispered quietly. Niall pulled the girl closer to the edge of the bed and slowly pushed into her dripping wet pussy. He went slow teasing the girl, and then pushed into her as hard as he could. He smacked her ass hard, leaving red marks “I wanna hear you scream my name baby.” Niall spoke lacing his hand into the girl's hair tugging it. She moaned loudly biting her lip hard, "Oh, N-Niall." She screamed loud with hesitation nearly screaming Louis' name. She gripped the sheets tightly and felt shivers all up her spine. "Fuck, you feel so good." She whispered, "Cum in me." She begged. “Fuck babe cum with me!” Niall yelled as he emptied himself in the girl. He pulled out and collapsed on the bed next to Harry breathing heavily. “Fuck.”

Harry was shaking a bit as she quickly orgasmed, cumming onto Niall's cock before he pulled out. After he pulled out, she lowered her ass to the bed and whimpered softly, "What have I done?" She asked herself quietly so Niall wouldn't hear. She breathed deeply trying to calm her breath, "That was amazing. Thank you." She said softly, turning to the lad. “Anytime, we should stay in touch.” Niall said slipping his clothes back on. He handed Harry her clothes and sat on the edge of the bed. He looked at his watch and noticed it was 2:45am. He let his head fall, a bit disappointed that she had to go. Harry shook her head, looking to Niall as she fixed herself up a bit, "You can't tell Louis." She whispered softly, walking to Niall and whispering close in his ear, "I'm sorry." She said letting her arms wrap around his neck as she sighed deeply. “I won’t tell him, but I want to see you again.” Niall looked at Harry with sad eyes.

The girl nodded her head, "Look, that was great, so I'd say maybe." She looked at Niall softly, pecking cheek. "I just don't want to hurt Louis. I know we aren't in a relationship, but I still don't want to hurt him." She admitted quietly, feeling sick that she had just allowed this stranger to fuck her, even if it was good. Niall sighed a bit hurt and stood up. “Come on.” He said in an upset tone. He walked through the house and out the front door. Harry followed after and they got in the car. He sent a text to Louis with the address and drove in that direction. The car ride was very silent as Niall didn’t feel like talking. Harry didn't say a word, she felt like throwing up. She just bit her lip nervously and looked out the window as they drove off. She allowed herself to relax, knowing soon enough she would see Louis. After about 10 minutes of awkward silence she finally spoke, "Niall, you're such a sweet guy... honestly, I want to say yes. That was so amazing, so if I ever change my mind I will definitely reach out." She promised, smiling softly as she placed her hand on the lad's shoulder, "Okay?"

Niall nodded still looking forward. The thought of being Harry’s second option wasn’t the best feeling. He’s literally letting the girl go and she won’t even give him a chance. Harry nodded, "Okay." She moved her hand from his shoulder and went back to looking out the window, she picked her lip nervously, looking down at her legs, shaking slightly. She looked back to Niall, "Am I bleeding?" She asked still picking at her lip. “A bit. Stop picking.” Soon enough they pulled into the warehouse parking lot and got out of the car, as well as Louis and Eric. The older man walked over to Niall and shook his hand. “Son, you know doing this could get you killed right?” Niall nodded looking at the ground. “How about you join us, need another person to watch over Harry.” Eric explained. "What do you mean 'join us'?" Niall questioned. “Like be one of us. Help protect Harry. You can stay at our place.” Eric offered, knowing if Niall went back to the Malik's, he’d be dead. "I... I guess that would be better than dying." He said softly, looking back at Harry. “Alright. Just follow us back to the house.” Eric said, hopping in his car.

Chapter Text

Niall followed after Eric and pulled into the lot, next to him. He got out of the car and followed Harry, Louis and Eric into the large warehouse. At this point, he really didn't want to be around Harry after everything that happened. Harry was holding Louis' hand tightly, walking close, as they entered the warehouse. She sighed softly, feeling a little overwhelmed as they entered the dark building. “Uhm sir, what are we doing here?” Niall asked, a bit worried that something bad was going to happen. Eric looked back at Niall, "Just have to meet some people who will help us find Zayn. We know he's gone, but we don't know where." 

Harry whimpered softly, stopping, "I can't go in." She whispered quietly, thinking about being back in that basement all taped up, sat in the dark. She backed up slowly, feeling her heart pound, "I can't." She whimpered softly. “Okay.” Niall looked back at Harry and saw how scared she was. He wanted to comfort he, but she had someone. Louis pulled her in close, hugging her tight, and whispered softly in her ear, "It's okay, he can't get you here." The girl whimpered, looking behind Louis at Niall, she smiled softly, "I know, it's just... the dark..." she whispered shutting her eyes tightly. "I just want to go home." “We will be home soon love.” Louis spoke, kissing Harry’s forehead. He turned around to Niall and spoke. “Thanks so much man for bringing her back, we’ll make sure they don’t find you.”

Niall nodded and looked to Harry, "Yeah, of course." Harry turned away from them and looked at the building swallowing hard, "Can I just stay in the car?" She asked turning back, "I don't want to go in." She shook her head softly, looking at the ground. “Yeah, Niall can sit out here with you while your dad and I go figure out what’s going to happen.” Louis turned to Niall and spoke. “Is that okay mate?” “Yeah. It’s fine.” Niall turned around and walked out to the car, getting in the back seat. Harry turned back to Louis and gave him a small kiss, before waving as she walked towards the car. She climbed in the back seat as well and closed the door, sighing softly as she looked to Niall. "Are you okay?" She asked softly, moving a bit closer. “M’fine.” Niall said, turning to look out the window. "Are you upset about something?" She asked softly placing her hand on his shoulder, "I... I'm sorry if I did something to upset you." She said moving her hand to Niall's hair, running her fingers through it softly.

“Just doesn’t feel good being your second choice.” Niall said with a sigh. “Harry, I don’t think you understand. What you and I did, I don’t normally do. I’m usually in a relationship with whoever I sleep with.” Harry blushed softly, "Oh, well... then why did you fuck me?" She asked sighing softly, still running her fingers through his hair. "I guess we shouldn't have done that then. I was just feeling vulnerable, and you made me feel comfortable and wanted." She admitted softly. “You told me to? But I guess we shouldn’t have.” Niall said scoffing. “You should also ask Louis and make sure he’s not still seeing Eleanor, I heard she's back in town.” "You didn't have to, if you didn't want to. You could have said you weren't comfortable doing that without being in a relationship." She said dropping her hand from the man's hair, "I don't care if Louis hangs out with Eleanor, like I said we aren't in a relationship. But, I'm pretty sure he isn't, either way I don't care." She lied, crossing her arms lightly.

“That’s the point Harry! I was comfortable because I like you!” Niall said getting out of the car and slamming the door. Harry opened the door and called after Niall who was walking away. "Niall, please, I'm sorry... If you like me, you won't leave me all alone, scared." She said, shivering as the cold breeze blew, "Niall, please!" She called out, hesitantly walking after him. Niall stopped in his tracks and sighed. He wanted so bad to just leave the girl outside alone but he didn’t have the heart to. “Kiss me.” Niall said turning toward the girl. “Please.” Harry hesitantly nodded and walked close to Niall, "Okay." She said as she placed her arms around his neck and pressed her lips to his. She kissed him tenderly as she ran her fingers through his hair.

Louis walked outside and stopped, when he saw Harry and Niall kissing. He felt a pang of hurt in his chest and walked back into the warehouse. He didn’t want Harry to know that he saw them. Harry continued to kiss Niall softly, moaning low. She was actually enjoying the kiss, she felt odd, like Niall was no longer some stranger. She pulled away slowly and bit her lip lightly, "Wow." She whispered, quietly, pulling Niall back into the kiss, tangling their tongues together. Niall let the kiss go on for a few more minutes before they heard distant talking. He and Harry separated and leaned up against the car. Eric and Louis walked out and up to the car. “Well they went to the far side of England but one of the guys went back to the Maliks and they know you guys are gone. We have to go somewhere different or they’re gonna find all of us. So when we get back we are packing up for America.” Eric spoke seriously. Harry wiped her mouth and looked to Louis, then to her father. "Daddy, what? America?... this is crazy... oh my gosh." She said placing a hand to her heart, breathing deeply. "America." She repeated. "This... this is insane!" She yelled getting in the car and slamming the door shut.

Louis looked at Niall and frowned a bit. Louis stepped into Eric’s car and Niall got in his car with Harry. “Hey, you okay?” Harry was covering her face with her arms crying softly, "No." She said as she sobbed quietly. She didn't want to leave her childhood home and town, she loved it here. America was so far, and she wouldn't know anyone besides her family, Niall, and Louis. Niall grabbed her hand and rubbed it gently. “Hey it’s okay love, please don’t cry.” She sniffled lightly and lifted her head, wiping her eyes softly, "I... I just don't want to leave, this is my home." She whispered softly, squeezing Niall's hand lightly. “I know babe, but it will be okay. I promise.” Niall brought the girls hand up to his lips and kissed it softly. "I know, Its just my life is falling apart, all too quickly." She said blushing softly as Niall kissed her hand. "You're so sweet."

Chapter Text

Niall smiled and followed Eric and Louis back to the house to pack up. When they got there, Louis and Eric were already inside, so Niall took the opportunity and kissed Harry sweetly. Harry gasped, surprised by Niall's kiss, but she didn't hesitate to kiss back. "You've got to stop doing that." She said jokingly, "I might just fall for you." She whispered softly, kissing him again, a low hum escaping her lips. “And I just might fall right back.” Niall said with a wink. The two walked inside together and found Eric in the kitchen. “So sir, what needs packed up?” Niall asked just as Louis walked in.

Before Eric could answer Louis spoke. “I’m heading to my house to pack my stuff. I’ll be back in about 30 minutes.” Eric looked to Louis and nodded, then back to Niall, "Why don't you and Harry go pack her things." The girl spoke up, after her dad, "I was actually gonna ask if I could help Louis?" She questioned looking to her dad, then back to Louis. "Please?" She asked giving Eric her undeniably cute, puppy dog eyes, that's how she got everything she wanted. “Fine, but you two be quick.” Eric spoke. Louis mentally rolled his eyes and headed out the door, not waiting for Harry. He got in his car and started it. Harry nodded, smiling softly. "Thank you Daddy, see you soon." She said turning back, looking to Niall and looking at the ground as she walked out the door, slowly jogging after Louis. She got in the car and closed the door, breathing heavy. "Finally, a moment alone." She whispered buckling up, and looking to Louis. "You okay?" She asked realizing he looked a bit off. “Yeah, fine.” Louis said taking off in the direction of the house. He was still very upset about what he saw earlier.

"Louis, are you sure? You look a bit down, are you upset about moving? I know I am." She said softly, looking out the window. She glanced back at Louis, waiting for an answer. “ I’m fine, just drop it.” Louis said as they pulled up to his house. He got out of the car and went inside, not waiting for Harry. The first thing Louis packed was all of his guns and other weapons. Harry followed Louis into his house and watched him aggressively packing. She whimpered softly, "Louis, what is wrong?" She asked, tugging at his arm from behind him lightly. "Please, talk to me." She begged softly. “Harry, do you realize how much danger we are in right now?! Nothing is wrong! Just help me pack please!” Louis said storming up to his bedroom, to start packing clothes. Harry winced as Louis yelled and felt herself go numb. She knew that they were in danger, of course, but Louis was acting so different, and he just screamed at her. She felt a few tears fall as she walked to the bathroom and packed any necessities, silently crying. She thought about everything that was happening over the past few days and began to sob silently, as she continued to pack all of Louis items into a small bag.

Back at the Styles house, Matty, Eric and Niall had almost finished packing everything necessary. The last room was Harry’s. The three men made sure they got almost everything and walked downstairs to wait on Louis and Harry to get back. Eric turned to Niall and spoke. “Niall thank you again for bringing Harry back, you’re a good man.” Niall turned to Eric and nodded, "Thanks, that's really nice of you to say." He said with a small smile, looking back at the ground. He was pretty happy Harry's dad liked him, that was a good sigh, right?

Louis finished packing his clothes and walked downstairs calling for Harry. “Come on Harry, we gotta go.” Louis felt bad about the way he was acting, but he couldn't believe Harry would make out with a stranger not even 24 hours after kissing him. Harry wiped her tears and quickly finished packing, walking out of the bathroom. She didn't look at Louis, she just walked past him and went out the door, staring at the ground. "Maybe Niall isn't so bad." She mumbled to herself as she walked to the car. Niall wasn't being an ass, he was being comforting, he was kissing her softly. Showing her that everything would be okay, and all Louis could do was yell at her. She shook her head, trying to just forget what happened. Louis followed after the girl and threw everything in the trunk of the car. He got in and buckled his seatbelt, speeding toward the Styles house. The silence was deafening. “I saw you guys kissing.” Louis finally said, keeping his eyes on the road. Harry shut her eyes tight, and let a few tears fall. "When?" Was all she asked, she didn't even want to deny it. She turned her body, turning to look out the window, more. She couldn't believe it, she felt like a huge jerk, but she just couldn't help it. The more she kissed Niall, the more she liked it, was that so wrong?

“At the warehouse.” Louis spat.  “Can’t believe I was so stupid.” He mumbled under his breath. Harry turned to Louis and rolled her eyes, "I don't know why you care? We aren't even in a relationship, we just had sex." She said angrily, "Is that why you yelled at me, because you should be mad at yourself. Niall was there for me when I thought I was gonna die, he just made me feel comfortable and safe. So, what If I kissed him, its not like we're getting married." She said turning back to the window. “Are you fucking serious right now? You know I would have been there for you if I could have, I was out looking for you Harry. And no we aren't in a relationship, but we talked about being in one! You didn’t even wait twenty four fucking hours before kissing him! You hurt me Harry and I didn’t even do anything to you.” Louis said breaking finally. He let tears fall down his face as he drove. Harry sobbed silently, "You know what, fuck you. It's my life, I can do whatever I want with whoever I want. Just because I confessed my feelings for you, doesn't mean I want to be with you right away. I told you I didn't want to jump into a relationship, and here you go yelling at me again. You're not going to change what happened by yelling at me, I am sorry I hurt you, but just please stop yelling." She cried.

“Fine. I just won’t say anything anymore. I’m done with this, with you.” Louis said calmly just giving up. They pulled up to the house and Louis got out slamming the door as hard as he could. He walked inside the house, leaving Harry behind. Harry screamed in the car, before getting out and walking into the house, angrily. "Fuck you, Louis! You just ruined any chance we ever had of being in a relationship." She said angrily, running to her room, looking around, seeing it almost empty. She dropped to her knees and sobbed hysterically, wanting to go away, just escape all this pain. She covered her face and just let herself cry, thinking about all that happened, wishing she could go back in time. 

Eric looked at Louis and Niall took off after Harry. “What the hell is going on Louis?” Eric asked a bit angry. Louis looked to Niall running after Harry and let a tear fall, "Why don't you ask Harry, she's the one who kissed Niall." He mumbled angrily, staring at the floor. “I don’t run some type of whore house, especially not with my daughter. I hired you guys to protect her, not try to date her. Don’t get me wrong, I don’t care if she’s in a relationship, but I don’t deal with drama. So, you guys need to figure this shit out, soon.” Eric said seriously. “Matty go get them, we have to go.” Eric said turning toward his son. "Well... I, can't. Didn't you hear her, she hates me." He said watching as Matty went upstairs to get Harry and Niall. After hearing everything that went down Matty wasn’t too happy. He walked upstairs and pushed the door open. Niall and Harry were sitting on the floor wrapped in each other’s arms. “Get up, we have to go.”

Harry sniffled, looking to Matty, and nodding. "Okay." She said softly, dropping her arms away from Niall and wiping her eyes as she stood up. She stumbled a bit, feeling weak, as she pulled Niall up. She looked to Matty and then to the ground, she stayed close to Niall feeling like she might pass out if she moved. She wrapped an arm around Niall's waist, gripping it tightly to keep from falling over. She was still crying softly, trying to just forget what happened. When the three walked downstairs, Louis looked at the ground. “Dad how are we splitting up cars?” Matty asked. Eric looked to Louis, then Niall and Harry, and thought for a moment, there was no good way to split up the groups. "Niall, you'll go with Matty and Harry. Louis, you'll go with me, sound good?" He said, looking back at Harry and Niall, figuring as long as there was someone with them, nothing would happen. “Yes sir.” Louis said walking out of the house. Everyone else followed and they headed toward their destination. Louis was a bit upset, hoping Harry would have road with them so they could talk about things. Louis pulled out his phone and messaged the girl. Harry got into the back of the car with Niall, and leaned her head on his shoulder, still crying softly. She felt a small buzz from her phone, pulling it out of her pocket, and sitting up straight.

Harry I’m sorry about everything. If you wanna be with Niall, so be it.  Just know how I feel for you is never going to change. L

Thank you for apologizing, but I'm the one who should apologize. I was just feeling so vulnerable, and he made me feel comfortable, and wanted. I am sorry for being a jerk, I think I just need a break from all of this. We should just be friends for now, and maybe I'll see what happens. I don't know what's gonna happen with Niall and I, but I just want to see. I don't know who I want, but I like you, a lot, and I hope you know I never meant to hurt you. H

I know you didn’t. I just want you to be happy Harry. I care about you so much. L

I care about you a lot too, and I hate myself for hurting you. I think I just want to be close with someone so badly, that anyone who shows me affection, just instantly makes me feel wanted. H

It’s okay. I understand. L 

Louis locked his phone and laid his head back against the seat, falling asleep. 

Chapter Text

Harry put her phone down and looked to Niall sweetly, pushing some hair from his face, before leaning close and whispering in his ear softly. "When we get a chance, I want you to fuck me again... I need it." She was feeling so emotional, and she felt like Niall was the only one who would make her forget everything. She would ask Louis, but he was the one she was trying to forget about, everything he said today, was weighing on her. Niall's cheeks flushed red, and he swallowed hard. “O-okay.” He spoke trying to be quiet so Matty wouldn’t hear what they were talking about. Niall moved his hand up Harry’s thigh setting incredibly close to her pussy, teasing her. Harry bit her lip softly and glanced to Matty in the front, before kissing Niall's neck slowly. She pushed her hips forward in her seat, wanting to feel the man's touch. She took her hand and placed it on Niall's crotch, rubbing it softly, to tease him. "You want me so badly right now, but you have to wait." She whispered softly, placing more soft kisses up the lad's neck and jaw.

Niall's breath hitched at the girls’ touch. He heard what she was saying but he couldn’t wait. He slid his hand into Harry’s leggings and began rubbing her pussy through her panties. Harry moaned low and pushed her hips forward, looking to Matty as she moved her body, so she was now straddling Niall. His hand was still in her pants rubbing her softly as she placed soft kisses on his mouth. She kissed him now, with more passion, and ran her fingers all throughout his hair. Matty looked back at Niall and Harry in the rear-view mirror and rolled his eyes as he saw the two making out.

Niall moved his hand inside of Harry’s panties and gently slid two fingers inside her already wet pussy. Harry moaned out loudly, as he pushed in his fingers, she didn't care if Matty saw. She needed Niall, she needed him to take away any feeling. She began to grind against him slowly, pushing her hips forward forcefully. "I need you; I need you right now." She said panting lightly as she placed open mouthed kisses all over his neck. Matty cringed and spoke. “Are you guys seriously fucking back there? I don’t wanna hear that.” Matty turned up the music and shook his head. Niall pulled his pants down and pulled his cock out so Harry could ride it. Niall was only doing it right now because Matty didn’t seem to care, and he really wanted to be inside Harry. The girl looked at Niall's cock and pulled off her leggings and panties quickly. She slid his cock into her wet pussy and let out a loud moan, as she began riding him. She bounced up and down, pushing him into her deeper as she breathed heavy into his neck. "Oh, fuck, you feel so good." She moaned out, riding him faster. Niall threw his head back against the seat, loving how tight the girl was. “Fuck, faster.” Niall moaned pulling the girl in to kiss her.

Harry kissed Niall messily as she moved her hips faster. She moaned loudly feeling his big cock push deeper into her. She grabbed Niall's hand and slid it up her jumper, and held it tightly, squeezing it against her tit. She loved the way Niall made her feel, she felt so naughty, but wanted. It was so fun being mischievous, and she had never had sex in a car before. Niall squeezed Harry’s tit and brought his other hand up to choke her. He squeezed tightly feeling the girl moan against his grip. Harry breathed heavy, biting her lip softly as Niall choked her. "Cum in me." She begged softly, quickening her pace, gripping Niall's shirt tightly, "Cum in me, baby!" She screamed out feeling intense shivers all over her body. Niall did as the girl said and gripped her hips. He filled her pussy and kissed her on the lips softly. 

Harry moaned out, "Oh, fuck." As she felt Niall cum, doing just the same, having an intense orgasm, ending with a satisfying squirt. "Ohh, fuck, yes... Niall, Mmm." She said breathless, as she stopped grinding and sat with his cock still in her pussy. She kissed him messily on the lips and wrapped her arms around his neck. “That felt so good.” Niall breathed between kisses. Suddenly Matty spoke. “Better clean yourselves up, Dad is stopping to get food.” Harry nodded in agreement, before glancing at Matty, "Shut up Matty, you creep." She snapped. Going back to Niall and kissing him softly, before lifting off his cock. Matty pulled into the diner and parked the car. Eric and Louis pulled up next to them and they all got out, walking inside. Harry looked to Louis and smiled softly, biting her lip nervously. Once they walked in, she stepped away from the group and went to the bathroom, fixing her messy hair and wiping her partially red eyes. "Harry, what have you done?" She asked herself, staring at her reflection, before going back out, and joining the group, standing by Matty. "Don't say a word, got it?" She whispered, making sure nobody heard.

Matty rolled his eyes but nodded at Harry. Dinner went better than expected, everyone actually got along. They still have many, many hours before they get to where they’re going. Niall grabbed Harry’s leg under the table and rubbed it gently, smiling at the girl. Suddenly Eric spoke up. “I think I’m gonna switch people around, Niall I’d like to get to know you a little better if that’s okay. So Matty, you’ll take Harry and Louis.”  Harry breathed deeply as Niall placed his hand on her thigh. She listened as her father spoke and looked to Louis. "Okay, sounds good." She said smiling softly at Louis. She kicked Mattys legs from across the table and stared at him, nudging her head as she stood up. "Daddy, I'll be right back, I just need to talk to Matty." She said walking away from the table. Matty got up and followed after Harry. 

Harry pulled the man over to a corner near the bathrooms. "Matty, did you say something to dad?" She asked seriously. “No, I swear I didn’t.” Matty said holding his hands up. “Maybe he really does just want to get to know Niall. To be fair he’s from our biggest rival's gang.” Harry frowned, "Okay. I'm honestly scared Niall might say something dumb. I mean after you have sex with a guy twice, they start to get attached. He seems to be like head over heels for me, so I'm just scared he'll say something he shouldn't." She said picking her lip nervously. “It’ll be okay, Dad seems to like him so far. I still can’t believe you have sex in the back of my car. Also, what’s going on with you and Louis?” Matty questioned curiously.

"Yeah, sorry about that, I guess Niall just couldn't wait." She said shaking her head and looking to the ground. "Louis is upset, with me. He saw Niall and I kissing. When we were driving back home, he blew up on me, after he told me he saw. So, yeah... but it seems okay now, he apologized." She said looking back at Matty. “I’ve known Louis for a long time, and recently he just reconnected with his ex, Eleanor. So, you may wanna be careful with that. Not saying you can’t defend yourself. But she’s nuts.” Matty admitted. Harry looked at Louis, then Niall. She picked her lip, feeling completely lost. Why would Louis care so much, if he was with Eleanor? "Yeah, I'm not scared, I think I'm just gonna see what happens with Niall and me. But... speaking of Louis, you need to apologize." She said softly. “I will, but can I ask you something?” Matty spoke. Harry nodded, "Yeah, w-what is it?" She asked nervously. “Did you sleep with Louis that night?” He asked. Harry looked to Matty, "Yeah, I did." She admitted softly, "But I don't see why that matters?"

“Because I knew something was going on between you two.” Matty said in a ‘know it all’ voice. “But let’s go back, so we can hit the road.” Harry nodded, "Just, keep all this to yourself, okay? You're my brother, so don't be a dick." She said walking back to the table and sitting down back by Niall. She placed a hand on his shoulder and whispered close in his ear, "Don't say anything about us fucking to my dad, okay?" She said before pulling back, biting her lip softly. “Well, I don’t feel like dying, so I won’t.” Niall smiled, chuckling lightly. Everyone got up and walked out to the cars. Niall kissed Harry's cheek and climbed into the car with Eric. 

Harry walked to the car and got in the backseat. "Matty, can you grab me a blanket from the trunk? I'm really cold, and tired." She said yawning lightly, grabbing her phone. While Matty grabbed Harry a blanket, Louis slid in the back seat next to her. He smiled lightly and looked out the window. Harry smiled softly, "Hey. Can I ask you something?" She spoke, moving a bit closer to Louis. “Sure.” He said smiling at the girl. Harry swallowed nervously. "Are you okay with me just seeing what happens with Niall? I mean, because Matty told me you were talking to Eleanor again, so I figured... well I mean, I don't know. You'd want to see what happens with Eleanor, so I thought we could just take a step back, and just try to be friends again." She said, moving even closer to Louis, placing a hand on his shoulder. Louis shrugged out of Harry’s touch; a bit hurt by her asking. “Whatever makes you happy.” Louis forced a smile and got out of the car moving to the front seat. 

Harry rolled her eyes and grumbled lightly as Louis moved to the front seat, she got out as well and looked back at Matty. "Matty, hurry up. I'm freezing, and I have no one to cuddle." She said, shivering softly as the cold breeze brushed against her skin. "Matty." She whimpered, shivering more. Matty shut the trunk and tossed a blanket at Harry. “Why don’t you have anyone to cuddle?” He asked tilting his head. She wrapped the blanket around herself, frowning at her brother softly. "I just keep fucking things up, I don't know what to do. Louis is mad at me again." She whispered softly, walking towards Matty. She buried her head into his chest, keeping the blanket wrapped around herself. "I hate being in a love triangle, it's too complicated and stressful." She mumbled into his chest. Matty hugged his sister and spoke. “I’ll kick him out of the front seat and force him to sit with you." Matty got in the car before Harry and talked some sense into Louis. As Harry was getting in, Louis was moving back to his original seat. “I’m sorry, come cuddle?” Louis said making grabby hands at Harry. 

Harry giggled softly and smiled, nodding her head. She climbed in and closed the door, moving to Louis and falling into his arms still wrapped in her blanket. She hummed softly, closing her eyes slowly, as she buried her face into his chest. Louis smiled down at the girl and rubbed soft circles in the skin of her arm. After about 10 minutes Louis’ eyes got heavy and he dozed off.

Chapter Text

During the very long, dreaded drive, Eric called a realtor in California and asked to buy the biggest property they had for sale. After about ten hours of sleep, Harry woke up, still in Louis' arms. She opened her eyes slowly, blinking a few times as she looked out the window, the sun was shining. She hummed happily, pulling Louis closer as she stared out the window, "Louis... wake up." She whispered softly, brushing his cheek lightly. She didn't know where they were, but the shining sun told her it was far away from home. Louis groaned as the sunlight hit his eyes. “Too bright.” Louis looked out the window and smiled. “Where are we Matty.?” Harry giggled softly, as Louis spoke, looking to her brother. Matty looked out the window, "I think we're in California, but who really knows." He said still looking to the road, yawning lightly. Louis’ eyes went wide. “Holy shit.” Louis had never been to the states before, but he had heard a lot about Cali.

Harrys eyes widened as Matty spoke, "You mean like Los Angeles, that California?" she asked, staring out the window to her left, on the opposite side of the car. She slowly moved to the window and stared out, "This is so cool. I can't believe were in the states." She whispered happily. Matty nodded, "Yep that California." He said with a small laugh. Eric pulled into the beautiful, gated community and drove up to the house, where a woman was standing, waiting for them. Everyone got out of the car and Eric smiled at the woman. “Hi, thank you so much for letting us buy this place in such short notice.” The woman smiled, looking at all of them, "Of course, when you buy in cash, it's so easy to get it quickly. You have a beautiful family, are they all yours?" She asked looking back at them. Harry blushed softly, as she stood next to Matty, resting her head on his arm. She was trying her best to keep her distance from the love triangle, which was something she just didn't want to deal with right now. Eric smiled pointing at Matty and Harry. “These two are, the other two are family friends.”

The lady nodded, "Well, it was so nice to meet you, I'll leave you all to go ahead and get settled." She said walking past them all with a smile. Harry lifted her head and looked at Louis and Niall and smiled softly, making her way up to her father. "Daddy, I know I didn't want to move before, but this is a really cool place, so I'm glad you chose it." She said smiling softly, looking up at her dad. Eric smiled and spoke. “I’m glad you like it princess. Now it’s time to unload the cars.” Harry nodded and turned back to the car, opening the back seat door, and grabbing her phone. She slipped it into a small pocket in the side of her leggings. She then turned back and closed the door waiting for Matty to pop the trunk. 

Unpacking took the better half of 3 hours. Everybody decided to take a break and sit on the couch. “What do you guys think? How about we go do something fun.” Eric spoke. Harry nodded, "I love it daddy, do you think, we could go to the Hollywood sign?" She asked looking around at the ceiling and admiring all the beautiful details. “Of course! Let's take my car.” Eric said with a smile. Everyone piled in the car, and they took off. Harry sat in the back middle seat, between Niall and Louis. She sat quietly and looked out the front window, trying not to engage with either of them. She glanced quickly at both of the boys and sighed, leaning back in her seat. She was so stressed, and tired of trying to make everyone happy, so she just focused on herself for a moment. Niall tried his best to hold back from grabbing Harry’s hand. At the same time, Louis was thinking the same thing. But early this morning Louis got a message from Eleanor asking for a second chance. He decided to give the girl a second chance, but he hadn’t told Harry yet. 

Harry looked to Louis and bit her lip, she turned to Niall and looked at him softly. "Fuck." She whispered under her breath, she decided she didn't care anymore. She turned to Niall and leaned her head against his shoulder, "Sorry I didn't text you; I fell asleep." She said softly, placing her hand on his, intertwining their fingers. She let her other hand reach up to Louis' hair, running her fingers all throughout it. She still was staring forward, she couldn't choose one, so she didn't. Two guys were always better than none. Niall smiled and spoke. “It’s okay love, I fell asleep too.” Louis let his eyes flutter shut and open back up again. He loved the feeling of Harry’s hand in his hair. Yes, she was holding hands with Niall, but Louis didn’t care. Harry snuggled her head close into Niall's shoulder and hummed softly, as she took his hand and placed it on her thigh. She bit her lip and giggled softly. She moved her hand from Louis' hair and gently rubbed his earlobe, pushing her knee to touch his. She allowed her eyes to flutter closed as she happily made sure both boys knew she was happy to be with them. Suddenly Harry got a text from an unknown number.

I don’t know who you think you are, but just because you moved away with Louis doesn’t mean he’s yours. He and I are back together, and I will be coming to see him. E

Harry dropped her hand from Louis' ear and pulled out her phone, after feeling a buzz. She looked to Louis, "Is that true?" She said showing him the message, tearing up a little. "Is that true?" She asked again, letting a few tears fall. She turned back to her phone before Louis could answer and texted Eleanor. 

Hey, just wanted to let you know... I'm not trying to get with Louis. You can have him all you want, I don't care, just leave me alone. H

Louis felt like an ass. He was going to tell Harry, but not right now. He pulled out his phone and messaged Eleanor. Harry sent the text and moved away from Louis the best she could. She slipped her hand back into Niall's, and buried her head into his neck, letting out a few small sobs.

Babe what the hell? L

What, did I do something wrong? E

Yeah,  you kinda did. There was no reason to be so rude to her. I told you what her and I had was over El. She’s my friend and I’m paid to protect her. L

Well, she took you away, I needed to let her know that just because that happened, doesn't mean you're hers. E

I’m not very happy with you right now. I’ll talk to you later. L

Oh, okay. E

Louis locked his phone and looked at Harry touching her shoulder. “Haz, please look at me.” Harry felt sick, she couldn't believe she'd been beating herself up over the fact she wanted to possibly have a relationship with Niall. Louis was with Eleanor, so why did he even care? She felt his hand touch her shoulder, she turned her head, eyes red. "Don't touch me." She whispered sadly, before turning to her dad. "Daddy, please stop the car, I think I'm gonna be sick." She whimpered out, gagging a bit. Eric stepped on the breaks and pulled over. Niall got out of the car so Harry could get out. As the girl got sick, he rubbed her back and held her hair. “It’s okay babe, let it out.” Harry threw up twice, holding her stomach as she did. When she finished, she cried softly, and wiped her mouth with her sleeve. She stood up slowly and turned to Niall looking at him sadly, as she plopped her head into his chest, still holding her stomach. "I think I need a nap." She said sadly, closing her eyes tight. “Alright you can lay on me until we get there.” Niall said opening the door so Harry could get in. He wasn’t sure what had happened between her and Louis, but he wasn’t very happy about it.

Harry shook her head, "I don't want to sit by Louis." She said, softly, wiping her eyes. "Matty, will you switch spots with Louis?" She asked softly, frowning lightly. Matty turned around and nodded lightly. He and Louis switched seats and Eric began driving again. Niall wrapped his arms around Harry and rubbed the side of her head lightly. Harry was cuddled close to Niall laying on him, on her back, with her legs on Mattys lap. Niall's legs were on either side of Harry, squeezing her legs tightly. "Mmm... thank you." She said softly, cuddling into Niall more, as she allowed her eyes to flutter shut. She giggled softly, thinking about what they did in the car, as she pulled up the blanket to cover their bodies. The ride was about 30 minutes, when they finally pulled up, they filed out of the car. The sight was beautiful, Niall hugged Harry from behind and swayed them back and forth. Harry hummed softly, feeling completely carefree as she held Niall's arms. She turned her arms and body around, and wrapped her arms around Niall's neck, before kissing him sweetly. Humming soft as she ran her fingers through his hair, she didn't care if Louis saw. She wanted him to know this could have been them, but he fucked things up.

Eric set his phone on a timer and made everyone get in for a group photo. They all smiled widely, enjoying each other's company. This new life for them was going to be great, a fresh start. “So, I was thinking we could all go out to the bars tonight and celebrate everything.” Eric spoke. Harry looked at him shocked, "Daddy I'm only 18, in the states you have to be 21 to drink." She said looking to him with sad eyes, "I mean, it will be fun, just no alcohol, which is boring." She said laughing softly. She looked back at the sky and let out a heavy breath as she saw the sun setting. She threw her arms in the air and let the wind blow in her hair as she closed her eyes. She smiled wide, laughing softly, as she embraced nature, she just wanted to be in the moment. “I’ve got a fake for you.” Eric said with a smile. He was trying to not be so hard on Harry and let her live a little bit.

Harry let her arms drop and she looked to her dad, "Oh, thank you daddy." She said happily, grabbing Louis' hand impulsively, and spinning around in his arm. She giggled softly, feeling like all her fears were being lifted away. Not because she could get drunk, just because she was able to be out and happy without worries. Niall was a little disappointed that Harry grabbed Louis’ hand but shook it off. He couldn’t wait to drink tonight though so he could dance with the girl. Harry grabbed Niall's hand and pulled him along, running down towards the big H letter. She giggled softly, as they carefully walked to the letter, "I wanna take a picture to remember this day forever." She said taking out her phone and pulling Niall in close, she kissed his cheek softly and snapped the picture.

Niall kissed the girl back and picked her up, spinning her around. He was so happy to have Harry in his life. Eric walked over to the two and spoke. “Harry, can you go to the car please? I would like to talk to Niall.” Harry nodded and went back to the car. Eric turned to Niall and smiled. “Take care of her please if you two get together. You’re a good kid Niall, just don’t break her heart.” Niall nodded, "Of course, yeah. I would never want to hurt her, not intentionally. I like her a lot." He said, smiling at the ground, thinking about how happy she made him. Harry sat in the back of the car, and waited for everyone else, when she suddenly saw Louis walking over to the backseat door. She looked at him and glared hard, frowning. She wanted to remain calm, and keep up her positive attitude, but she was so angry at Louis. Louis opened the door and spoke. “Harry will you please let me explain?”

Harry bit her lip softly and nodded. "Okay, fine." She said looking at her hands playing with her promise ring from her father. She swallowed hard, trying to hold back tears. “I was going to tell you I promise, I just didn’t want to hurt you. But I did tell El she was out of line. I’m sorry Harry.” Louis said trying not to cry. Harry shook her head, "It's okay, I'm just so hurt. I kept beating myself up over the fact that I hurt you, but this whole time you were with Eleanor. I feel so stupid, and I just, I don't understand." She said letting a few tears fall from her eyes as she looked up at Louis. She was shaking lightly, trying to keep from crying any more. Louis pulled the girl close and kissed her on her lips. He knew it was wrong, but he didn’t care. 

As Niall was walking back to the car, he saw the two kissing. His heart dropped to the pit of his stomach and his breath hitched. He shook his head and climbed into the front seat slamming the door. Eric was oblivious to everything going on. Before Harry knew what was happening, Louis was kissing her, she quickly pulled away as she heard the door slam wiping her lips. She smacked Louis, "Don't fucking touch me, what is wrong with you!" She yelled, "All you do is play with my fucking emotions, fuck you!" She said getting out and slamming the door. She walked away from the car and screamed out, here it goes again, she thought. Louis was ruining everything, he was so selfish, and he had a fucking girlfriend. 

Eric turned around and looked at Louis and yelled. “What the fuck is going on?!” Before Louis could answer Eric got out of the car and walked over to Harry. “Harry what’s going on? What happened?” She turned around burying her head into his chest, "Daddy." She cried out. "I... Louis kissed me, and all I want to do is kill him." She whispered angrily, "He keeps toying with my emotions and no matter what I do, one of them is upset, I hate it so much." She whimpered out, wrapping her arms around his neck. "I just want to go out and get wasted, and hopefully forget about this whole night." She admitted softly. “Well, I talked to Niall, and he likes you a lot sweetheart. Just ignore Louis I’ll have a talk with him.” Eric said with a smiled kissing the girls head. They walked back to the car and got in. Eric turned around and spoke to Louis. “I’m not gonna yell at you, but I’m not going to tolerate you fucking with Harry’s feelings. It’s done. You are just friends. If another incident happens, you’re done.” Eric turned back around and started the car. Before taking off, Niall and Louis switched seats.

Harry didn't say a word as she got into the car, she didn't even look at anyone. She just got in, and sat in the middle seat, again. She kept her legs and body away from Niall and instead cuddled into Mattys side. Using his shoulders as a head rest, as she cried softly. "Daddy, can we still go out for drinks?" She asked softly, looking at her phone, seeing a message from Louis. She didn't reply, or even read it. “Yeah, figured we could head home and get ready.” The drive wasn’t too long, as they soon pulled into the driveway. Harry got out of the car, keeping her eyes to the ground as she walked into the house, and up to her room.
