Somewhere in Between
What Lies Beneath
**Harry's POV**
I knelt down next to the most beautiful girl I ever seen. She wasn't model beautiful...it was different, it was like seeing a picture of your grandmother from her young days and really recognizing her beauty for the first time.
Did I do something? I just kissed her...and she fell out of my arms.
"Liz what's wrong?!" I whispered in her ear as I laid down in front of her on the floor.
She wasn't crying...just one tear had slid down her face.
"Last year..."she began, "I was dating this guy and he hit me, once, when he was drunk, so I gave him a second chance," she was sitting up now, obviously feeling better, "but he cheated on me. He cheated on me in my own bedroom and I walked in and saw him. That day I told myself not to trust love."
I wrapped my arms around telling her that it was one boy, one boy made a mistake.
"Love it difficult, and sometimes with the wrong person, it can be untrustworthy...but he didn't treat you right. As beautiful as you are, I didn't think you would give second chances-" She was back on her feet singing and dancing. "Hahahaha!"
"What?! Did you think I was going to sulk forever? I love...love!"
This girl was full of surprises, and I caught myself starting to think about her as more than a friend. She danced over to me, singing in my face "I wanna live while we're young...We wanna live while we're young!"
She grabbed me and pulled me up, giving me a hug first.
Her past is full of hurt, but if I do this right, I can be the one in future to make everything better.
