Drops of Jupiter

Sofia's POV

The days rolled on as me and Harry were together , it seemed as though if every day we learned something new about each other . Everyday a new memory , a new joke . I felt as if my life was perfect , but I knew in the back of my mind I would always have a past that haunted me . My mothers death , my absent father , the bad connections I had to supply my daily doze of herbs , I knew these were I could not run from not escape then , but Harry seemed to fade out the worries of yesterday . It was bad enough that Harry had to meet me in my darken state of mind , where everything was an illusion and a haze of pure perfection . These were my skeletons in my closet that I had to hush away from the daylight of the world . Things that talking about seemed to turn my chest into a tight knot that prevented me from breathing in a irrational way of living . I knew that it was not long before my past caught up to me and grabbed me by the throat once more choking me into a black tart sleep . But until that day , I would enjoy the peace while it lasted hugged it until it croaked of joy beneath my finger tips .

I stood contemplating in the fridge seeing that we were low on food , I absentmindedly bit my lips as I made mental notes of the essentials that I needed to get right now at the store . I was already dressed ready to head out the door when Harry's voice made me stop.

" Hurry back ! " , he yelled from the sofa in which he sat using the computer .

" Alright ! " , I screamed back as I walked over to the door .

The cold wind dried my throat as I walked over to Harry's black vehicle that was parked across the flat . I really had no idea how to use his car really , too many buttons and instructions to work the damn thing . Harry cherished his car with his life , it was always spot less when we entered the smooth premises . My mind puzzled over the remote on the key as I pressed the small squishy buttons , trying to unlock it . Once I had succeed I climbed in the car then I proceed to adjust the seat , feeling that it was way to far back and too laid back . I get it if your trying to be comfortable in your car , but Harry might as well might be trying to lay down while he's driving . The cars on the road zoomed past me as I drove to our local market that was a few streets away from our flat . The bright lights burned my eyes as the drivers put the high head lights on , it was a particularly dark night in London tonight . Nights like these made me cringe away from human interactions , I feared the quietness of the night and the haunting silence that rung around the stars aurora .

The cars engine was cut off by a quick movement of my hands , once again I climbed out of the mounting vehicle . The store was particularly empty tonight , about fifty cars filled the lot . It was a rather large back escalade that caught my attention in the parking lot . It lurked in the shadows all the way in the back , the windows were too tinted black for me to see the person inside . I gulped as the threatening car roared alive and stalked forward towards me . My pace quickened as it got closer and closer , it slowed down as it got next to me, even right next to me I still could not see the inside of it . My heart pumped harder as the car sped away from my presence . My body instantly relaxed as it zoomed away , the way the car slowed down next to my sent shivers down my back . It was like if they had slow down to see if it was really me , to see if they recognized me . In a panic my hands flew to my pockets searching for my phone , my fingers pressed the screen in a hurry as I dialed Harry's number . It rung twice before he answered .

" Hello ? " , his deep voice rang through the line . I relaxed as I heard his voice , hearing that he was alright.

" Hey you okay ?", I asked worriedly. The line was silent before he spoke again .

" Yeah I'm fine , why what's wrong ? " , he asked sounding more worried .

" Nothing there was this black car that passed by me right now , it scared me , but in I'm fine . I just wanted to make sure you were alright " , I spoke . My hands pulled the cart along in the store as I talked .

" What do you mean it drove by you ? " , he asked . His voice sounding darker .

" It was like hiding in the back of the parking lot and then I got out and I started walking and it came like running towards me , and then it it slowed down when it got near me " , I told him throwing some stuff in the cart . I could hear fumbling in the other side as I waited for his response .

" I'm on my way " , Harry spoke .

" Harry it's freezing outside , plus I took your car , it's fine stay home " , I told him .

" I'll walk . I'm on my way " , he spoke before the line clicked off . Frustratedly shove the phone back in my pocket . It would take him at least 20 minutes to get here walking , 10 if he runs . There was no arguing with Harry when it came to my safety . He was over protective at times . I let my mind trail off as I shopped around the store for the items I had made notes of . I was picking out cereal when I heard loud foot steps walking towards my direction . I ignored it as my mind told me it was just another costumer . I went back to picking cereal when suddenly the hairs on the back of my neck stood up with the sensation of somebody behind me . A sick sensation rushed through my body as I slowly turned to meet the stranger . A large hand took gold as my forearm as fear rushed through my body .

" Don't pull anything or ill blow your brains right here gorgeous " , spoke the perpetuator in my ear lowly . I stood frozen in fear as I was shoved through the store by force . I still could not see the mans face as he guided me out the store to the back . Cold wind hit me hard as his nails dug into my skin that erupted me to whimper in pain . He lead me into the stores dark of the store away from all human interaction . I was shoved against the wall before one the threatening man came view . He was built maybe in his 20's with a scar on his left eye . Panic ran through my body as he got closer and closer to me .

" I'm so sorry we had to meet this way , but honey this was the only way I was going to get you alone " , the man spoke with his eyes trailing up and down my body .

" So I heard that your Harry's girl now huh ? " , he asked me . My eyes frantically searched around the place for an escape route that could be really use full .

" Ah ah ah ... Now now , were not going anywhere " , the man whispered as he put cupped my chin tilting it up to get a better look at me.

" It would be a shame if they killed you , so much beauty " , he spoke tugging my hair behind my ear .

" How did Harry get you huh ? He's always had very good luck with the ladies . But I guess he caught a keeper " , he whispered against my ear . His lips brushing against my skin . I stood frozen in fear as a large hand caught hold my waist .

" So soft " , he purred against my skin . Adrenaline rushed trough me as I shoved his back with all the force I could muster up . He stalked back a few feet before he walked over to me again . My little stunt did not do anything against his strength .

" Fuck you " , I hissed . My voice sounding confident .

" Feisty ...... I like that . Now baby when we kill your little boyfriend , make sure you give me a call because baby- " , he was suddenly cut off by a larger frame appeared from the alley . His eyes flickered to the new figure that walked forward to us .
Curls poked out from every direction as he walked forward .My Body screamed in relief as he walked over to us . I immediately began to stir against the wall when Harry came to view rushing to try and get to him . My struggle aggravated the man as he tried to hold me back , he pinned me to the wall only for me to lash out and spit in his eye with hate . The man seemed to be in a haze with my actions , anger boiled his face . With a quick movement the back of his hand made contact with my cheek . The stinging pain flowed through my face as I hit the ground from the impact . My hand rushed up to my face as moister filled my eyes with anger . He had just put his hands on me . He had thrown me to the floor with one smack .
Harry came to view with clenched fists . His eyes were wild as they peered down at me .

" I told you to stay away from her you son of a bitch ", Harry growled through clinched teeth . The man had a cheshire smile as Harry spoke .

" Lovely to see you too Harry ", he spoke with a chilling smile . I managed to get my self on my feet before warm hands caught hold of me and pushed me behind a large body . I clung on to Harry with my fists fisting his shirt . Harry's body was tense as the man took a few more steps closer to us .

" Okay listen Harry , I don't want to fight tonight . Lets keep it peaceful there's ladies here . The thing is , your father still owns me cash . So I have to bring something back to the boss , and I'm sure your father won't bring the money to me . So I have to bring your head " , he paused his eyes landing on me . " Or hers " .

" I'm not my fucking father " , Harry spat .

" No but you are his kid .... It's a shame really how you got dragged into this " , the man sympathetically spoke .

" You stay away from us . And if you ever put your hands on her again " , Harry's voice lowered , " I will kill you"

Harry won the man by a couple of inches , the volume in his hair adding more height to his man bravado . My heart pumped as Harry threaded the man . My cheek was on fire , the pain pulsing through my body like a sand storm .

" When I'm done with you Styles . Your girl is going to be screaming my name " , the man spoke roughly .

That did it . Harry pounced towards the stranger . His fist colliding with his jaw line hard enough to send him pounding to the cold ground . I watched in fear as Harry beat the man . His clenched fist meting the mans ribs and jaws . The man was too taken back to fight , he managed enough strength to punch Harry in the gut just before Harry hit him . I did not know what to do , I just stood there frozen glued to the floor as I watched Harry beat him . The mans struggles subsided slowly as Harry's fist met his worn out body . His fist collided with him again and again . I could not stand looking at this any more . I mustered up all the courage I could find as I walked over to my aggressive lover.

" Harry stop you'll kill him " , I said loud enough for Harry to hear. His head snapped in the direction of my voice . He starred at the man once more before he climbed off the slumped body .

" Tell your boss to fuck off " , he hissed . A bloody hand took hold of mine dragging me to the car . It was a haze as we walked over to the car , Harry walked over to my side and opened the door for me . I watched as cold eyes buckled me in with shaking hands . My mind raced as I tried to figure out what had just happen . Harry had just almost beat that man with his bare hands . I jumped when I heard the door open abruptly to my side . It was silent as he roared the Range Rover alive , the car jerked forward as he sped out of the parking lot with the tires screeching against the road . His knuckels where gripping the wheel tightly , to the point that they were turning white .

" Harry are you alright ? " , I asked after a few seconds of silence . I got no responce , the only thing I could hear was his hard breathing .

" Harry who the fuck was that ?! ", I yelled feeling completly help less that he was shutting me out . I turned my head to the window noticing that we were no longer in town . In fact I had no idea where we were , dark silhouettes of trees covered the satin night . The city lights were drowned out by a dark forest that I had never seen . The car was dragged along the side of the road where Harry haulted the car to a stop .

" Did he touch you ? ", he asked me coldly with his eyes looking straight ahead .

" Harry what the fuck is going on ? " , I asked for a second time this strange night . His head snaped to my direction , his curls bouncing along his head .

" Did he , or did he not !? " , he yelled at me. My body flinched back at his loud demanding words . He had never yelled at me in such manner , never had he disrespected me like that . Tears began to form along my tear ducks . Hiding my face and tears I tore my head away from him . I heard him let out a loud fustrated breath that made me even more angry . Now I was fuming , first he wont tell me shit about how he almost just beat a man half to death , and then he yells at me .

" Sofia will you please just answer me ", he said with clenched teeth . I furriously turned my head with cold eyes to meet his icy green ones .

" No you asshole , he did not touch me " , I told him coldly . My hurtful words seemed to have no effect on his darken state of mind right now . He did not speak another word as he zoomed away again into god knows where .

We had been driving for almost 30 minutes before he stopped the car in a parking lot of an hotel . It looked abandoned , like if it had been left there to rot.

" Were going to stay here tonight " , he said cutting off the engine once again . It was silent before I spoke again rudely .

" How are we going to pay ? We have no money with us " , I told him with a matter-of-factly tone .

" Dont worry about that " , he spoke . He starred off into the distance before he opened his door . I waited for him to open my door like he always does , but when he did not apear by my side I angrly opened the door my self . The cold wind hit me in stabs as I walked over to where I hear the fumbling coming from . I had just made it in time to watch him press the button to open the back door . The door obediently opened automaticly , I watched as he began moving the clothe laid there for many days , most of it was his shirts and pants , I let out a small laugh as he moved one of my bras out of the way , I had forgotten about that bra . I blushed slightly as I remmebered why it was there . Harry continued his search for the mystery object as I stood there watching . He began patting around the car floor , his hand patted diffrent areas until he felt something dent in the car . I watched in curiousity as he lifted the piece of polyester carboard . Inside the whole was a spare wheel , but inside the wheel was a big black duffle bag about the size of my leg . He eazily lifted the bag over his shoulder , closing the pattern he had previously opened .

" What's that ? ", I asked curiously . I waited for his answer as he grabbed a hat from the pile of clothing , he pushed the front of his curls back into the hat as many curls poked out form the side of the hat . I had always hated how he used hats , he never wore them how he had to wear them .
He took hold of my hand as he led us to the empty hotel . When we stepped in the light of the place burned my eyes . In the front of the counter stood a very bored woman in her mid fourties . Her fake red hair was curly all over with a cheeta print bandana . Thrust me , I could tell between a real red head and a fake one . Her eyes widen as we aproched her desk probably suprised to see people at this time of night .

" Hello handsome " , she spoke popping her gum as we stood in front of her .

" Do you have any rooms available ? " , he said flashing her his million dollar smile that even I felt hypnotised by .

" Well sweetheart for how many ? ", she spoke seductivly . Seriously was I invisible ? Or was she just pretending that I was not there .

" Just for me and my wife " , he told her . I was taken back by the way he referred to me as his wife , he had always said me and my girlfriend , but this time he used wife . The lady seemed unpleased that I was his ' wife ' .

" We have one room , its the honey moon suite . Do you want it ? ", she spoke taking out the key and twirling it around her index finger .

" Yes that will do , thanks " , he told her .

" Alright you have to pay when you leave , and also do you want a Do Not Disturb sign ? " , she asked him poping her gum . He looked over to me asking for my permission , I rolled my eyes as he winked at me with a seductive smile .

" Yes we will take the sign , thank you " , he told her . She smiled wickedly as she handed him the small plastic door sign .

" Alright its the second hall to the left , room 83 " , she told us before she walked off . Harry pulled me along as we walked towards the room .

" Wife ? Really Harry ? ", I told him as we made our way to the room . He smiled at me as he put the bag down in front of the room 83 .

" One day " , he told me smiling while he opened the door . I blushed at his words , it made me think if he ment it or if he was just saying it to get on my good side . The room was dark as we entred the premisses , a large bed sat in the middle of the place with two coffee tables on each side .

" It's not a five star but it will do " , he said placing the duffle bag on thr bed . I wandered inside the suite , the bath room was suprisingly clean along with the rest of the room . I sat down next on the bed as Harry pulled out objects from the bag . I tilted my body closer to the bag trying to get a better look at the things he was pulling out . I laughed when he put his index finger to his nose and tapped it , saying that I was nosy . His knuckles were bloody fresh and opened , he watched me as I inspected his hands , tilting them so that I could get a better look at the cuts . I dragged him to the bath room to clean his wounds , he laughed at me as I jumped to try to sit on the counter but I failed as my height betrayed me . With ease he lifted me by my hips and sat me down where I wanted to be . His eyes never left mine as I cleaned his hands with a moist towel that hung near by . When I pressed pressure to the wounds he let out a hiss of pain .

" Sorry sorry ", I whispered quietly . A small smile left him lips as I pressed a small kiss to his palm after I had finished taking care of him .

" Thank you ", he told me as he placed him self in between my legs so he could hug me . I placed my head in the crook of his neck breathing in his amazing smell . I hadn't even felt pain on my cheek until he cupped my injured cheek . I let out a small whimper as he pressed gentle kisses to the swore skin .

" Bastard " , he mumbled as he inspected my face .

" I'm sorry I yelled at you " , he whispered againt my hands . He kept his face hiden from me as he spoke . I grabbed his head , placing both of my hands on either side of his face , making him look at me . I held his eye contact for a while before I placed a reassuring kiss to his lips . I knew that he was not going to tell me what that man was talking about , nor was he going to tell me what we were doing in this old hotel . Or why we could not go home . But I knew that I had to trust him .
**************************************************** Later on that night************************************
It was about 2 am when his phone rang , we both jumped as the ringing phone continued to sing . He slowly walked over to the phone , each step seeming extreamly dramatic . I grew more and more anxious as he let it ring . He picked up the phone and read the caller I.D . I watched as his body relaxed , he slid his finger across the screan and placed the phone to his ear . I waited for him to say who it was .

" Louis ? ", he spoke into the phone . I tried to hear Louis was saying , but all I could hear was mummbling .
" Yeah off the high way 93 " , he told him . It was silent again .

" Okay see you soon , thanks " , he told him clicking the line off .

" What did he say ? ", I asked walking over to him .

" Their coming tommorow " ,he told me .

" Here ?", I asked him pointing my index finger down .

" Yeah " , he said walking away . I watched him as he did the bed for us to sleep in , a million things were running through my head as he removed him shirt . I had seen him shirtless many times before , but every time I was taken back my his male perfection . He removed his jeans , left there only in boxers . I walked over to his side and picked up his fallen shirt . I rid my self of my clothing and trew his shirt on , it landed me about mid thigh , but it would do . I climed into the warm bed facing away from him , I jumped when a pair hands dragged me to his body . A shiver ran up my body when a warm hand ran up my thigh .

" Um no , your not getting off that easily ", I told him pushing his hands away . A laugh vibrated the bed making me bounce up and down .
All we could do was now wait for morning , wait for the sun to come up . It was all a haze as my eyes closed .
I feared the fact that it was not my past that had caught up with me , it was Harry's past . And some how I had dragged into it viciously .
