I woke up still lying in Harry's arms. It was about 3 am and then it started again. The crying. Since a long time now Harry suddenly woke up really hectically at night. He starts to cry and yell and gets really sweaty. It's always scaring me and it's also very hard to calm him.
The problem is he won't tell me why he does that.

''Harry are you alright?'' I asked worried like everytime. But he didn't answer. He just looked me in the eyes and gave me a tight hug afterwards. I immediatly did embrace him back and gently stroke his neck.

''I'm here, it's alright. No worries.'' I tried to comfort him. It needed time to get him normal but it was okay, I don't care to wake up to settle him down. I mean I'm his friend and it's like my job to help him in these situations.

''Hey, should I get you a glass of water... or tea.. or milk?'' But he just held me even tighter. This clearly meant no. I slowly removed my hand and moved it to Harry's. His hands were freezing so I tried to get them warm. I rubbed my hands on his and slowly stood up still holding his hand in mine. I softly pulled Harry with me downstairs where my kitches was. I opened the cupboard and got a cup for him and me. Then I put water into the water heater and waited. Meanwhile I looked to Harry who was still saying no word. I took my sleeve, wiped a tear away and smiled. His face directed to the floor. Gently I pulled his chin up and gave him a huge hug again.

''Thank you.'' His shaking voice said unclear but still understandable.
Directly the water was ready. I took two tea bags and put them into the cups and pulled water in it. Then Harry removed his hand and went to the fridge to get milk. He also pulled that into his cup and asked me with his movements if I wanted some as well. I nodded and placed the cup in front of him. Then we started to drink our teas.

''I hope you like it. I didn't know whether you like it or not. It's chai tea.''
He wasn't talking yet but he showed me his smile which was a good sign. He still looked sad though. I've never liked it. You know waking up because of his yelling and crying it was just heart breaking to see him sad. Hard to explain but I hope you know what I mean.
After we finished drinking our teas we sat on the couch in the living room. I took the cover next to him and tucked us up. Then I noticed I still wore my jeans and my shirt. Well I couldn't let him alone so I just ignored it and turned the TV on. Just CNN so nothing special..
I looked through more channels and stopped on channel 4 which was showing friends.
Harry and I really loved it and I think it was making him happy again which made me happy as well.

I slowly opened my eyes and realised I still were lying on the couch.. on top of Harry. We had to fell asleep yesterday while watching Friends.
I gently moved my arm to the table where Harry's phone was lying to check the time. Suddenly he started to grumble and threw his arm around my body so that I couldn't move my arm to his phone anymore.
His tired eyes opened and looked directly into mine.

''Sorry for waking you...'' I apologised. ''I didn't mean to do that I thought it was gently enough.'' I laughed.

''It's alright I was awake since an hour now..'' He said which was surprising me. Why didn't he wake me?

''Oh you should have told me you were rather letting my heavy body lying on top of you.'' I giggled and so he did.

''It was too comfy I didn't want to tell you. Your body was warm and not heavy at all, haha.''
Then I noticed the cover lying on the floor.. Well I guess Harry was warming me as well.

''Do you want to eat something?'' I asked while thinking about whether doing pancakes or bacon with egg.

''No,'' He grumbled. '', It's too comfortable to stand up!'' I loved his voice in the moring it was so raspy and calming.

''But I have to stand up anyways. I gotta go to the toilet and change my clothes.'' He just turned around so he was lying on my body now so that I couldn't move anymore. Don't you worry we are just really close friends our relationship is just really strong.

''Harry I really have to get ready! I'm supposed to be in London in 3 hours and I would like to be in time!'' Harry rolled his eyes and stood up so I could do the same but after that he just let his body fall on the couch again.

''I hope the breakfast is good. Why are you going to London? I thought we could spend time together today..'' He asked disappointed.

''Oh sure we can. If you want to come with me to London.. I'm not going to meet anyone just get something which I forgot there..'' I answered secretive.

''Alright but you know the consequences when I come with you in public.. don't you?'' Well I didn't really have anything against being seen with the Harry Styles but I just know everyone will say we are a couple and it's just a lie and I have something against lies...

''Well, just one day I don't think they will spread rumours instantly.''

''You don't know the press. They just say whatever they think and do it even more exciting for the readers.'' There was a long silence in the room with awkward gazes. Then Harry started again.

''Can I ask you something? Please be honest.''
I was a bit scared but it couldn't be too bad. I mean I had so many experiences with this kind of questions and it won't be as bad as them. I nodded confused.

''Why are you scared of these rumours? I thought you were a strong girl who wouldn't care about anything people say.'' Well it was simple, I was following the famous girlfriends of Harry Styles. Paige Reifler, Taylor Swift or Kendall Jenner. They are beautiful and I bet when they see me they'll think Harry went crazy. I am a normal girl without a lot of money or beauty.

''I'm not. I am shy and weak. I know I seem strong but it's just in front of the people I love and trust. And I get really embarrassed when everyone is looking at me. You have to understand that I hate it.'' I explained slowly.

''Oh.. I'm really sorry but you mean a lot to me and it's important to me to be surrounded by my friends.. especially you. What do you think they will say?'' I was blushing. I never heard someone saying that to me. I bet it was really hard to say for Harry. He always was cute, the perfect friend but this was like really different to everything he ever said.

''You know, they'll think we are in a relationship..'' I said after a while.

''Do you mean it's a bad thing to be with me? ''

''No! I didn't mean to offense you! It would be really nice to be with you! You know you are great and everyone has to be lucky to have you! I just you know.. don't like everybody to focus on me. It isn't because of you I really like you!'' After that awkward speech I quickly went upstairs and got changed as fast as possible.
Then I walked down again and sat next to Harry.

''Well, so what do you mean? Should I come with you or not?'' Harry asked after a while.
I asked him to. I always wanted him to come with me I don't even know anymore how we started to discuss.

''Of course I want you to come with me. I don't care about the paps. It's for you and I really appreciate having you as a friend. It would be a waste if you wouldn't come with me.''
I looked over to him and saw him smiling to the floor. His dimples are shown as usual.

''I'm starving let's eat something.'' Harry suggested. If he wasn't stopping me to change and discussing with me then we would be eating already.

''How about going to Slice Sussex? It's so good there!'' He just shrugged which probably meant yes so I walked over to my car.

''Let's drive with my car. It's cooler.'' He winked. Such a boaster.

''Hi! What is your order?'' The waiter asked.

''I'll have the eggs benedict please.'' I said while closing the menu and waiting Harry to answer so I could talk to him.

''Uhm, I'll have the same please.'' Harry said with a huge smile in his face. The waiter smiled back thanked us and went behind the counter to get our food.

''So what do you think about Slice Sussex?'' I started. I already know his answer. It's gonna be positive and short like everytime so he isn't rude.

''I love it here. Especially the walls.'' I know what he means it's like a blackboard and you could write anything on it. There are always cute quotes on it and it looks really comfy.

''I know right? The food is so tasty! I could marry it! You will taste in in a few minutes.'' I smiled and he smiled back.

You are probably asking yourself why we aren't talking about what happened this night. I tried once and it went really wrong. He just didn't want tell me why he does that sometimes and we didn't like each other anymore. Then both of us apologised and we became friends again but I don't want to risk our friendship again that's why I won't talk about it.

''Here is your food miss and sir.'' The waiter said friendly.

''Thank you it looks delicious!'' Harry said back. It really did.

''You should really try it then you know what delicious means.'' She laughed.

''By the way.. I'm a huge fan and I wanted to ask if I could get a picture with you.. If it's ok. I don't want to disturb your date...'' She said awkward. Date!?

''Oh no we are just friends but I think it's alright.'' Harry smiled nicely.
Then they took a lot of pictures and Harry also followed her on twitter.
She thanked him and went behind the counter again. I literally hoped no one else is going to think this is a date between two people who loves each other. I don't mean I don't love Harry I just can't imagine him being my boyfriend.
Harry took a massive bite into his sandwich.

''Wow, that is so delicious!'' Harry said still having food in his mouth and took anouther bite.

''Isn't it? I love Slice Sussex!'' I said and took a bite as well.

After we finished our food we paid. Yeah right WE paid. I don't feel comfortable when Harry is paying for me like I would steal his money or just use him. I'm nothing like that. He already got I am paying my own things so he doesn't even mind anymore.

''We should come more often here.'' Harry said opening the door for me.


''Yeah we should. Well I do all the time but you should come with me more often.'' I giggled and so did he.

''So what should we do now?'' Harry asked curiously.

''I have to go to London forgot?'' I chuckled a bit. Harry held me the car door open once again and I hopped in.
After he also got into the car he questioned ''Where do I need to drive you, miss?''

''To my old house please sir.''

''Okay, please fasten seat belt we don't want you to die do we?''

''Oh sorry my mistake.'' So I did what he said. It always was so funny with him driving around and he is a really good driver though! I looked at my watch and saw it was already 2.20 pm which means I'm getting too late because I wanted to get there at 2.30 and I think it takes 30 minutes to London. Well I hoped Austin could wait.

''Let's spend our day in London alright?'' Harry suggested. It was actually a good idea. I just thought about the paps again...

''Yeah would be great.'' I said a bit nervous.

''You are sounding unsure.. Is everything alright?'' Harry tried to concentrate at me but he knew he couldn't look away the street. His gaze was also a bit worried but it shouldn't be is isn't a big deal.

''Yes I'm alright nice idea.'' I said this time a bit more motivated. Harry's mouth angles went up so I could see his cute dimples again.


----------------


After the whole ride we finally arrived at my old house.

''Is it ok if you would stay in the car? I just have to get something. I'll be right back alright?''
Harry nodded and I got off the car.

There he was. Austin was still waiting for me although I was too late.

''Hey!'' I said and he hugged me.

''Hi love. I really missed you!''

''Yeah..'' I said uncomfortable. ''How have you been?'' I asked politely. I didn't even care I just wanted to get my book.

''Good, I was hanging around with Nelson while you were gone. And I guess you will be gone again after I give your book back.'' He said sadly. I didn't like him. He is my ex and I feel really uncomfortable next to him. He seems to be drunk a bit and I want to get away from him as soon as possible.

''I'm sorry I just really need it. Thanks for keeping an eye on it while I couldn't do it.'' I said trying to take it out of his hands but he was holding it too strong so my weakness couldn't grab it away.

''You don't really think you will get it just like that do you? I was a really good boy. I wasn't looking in it just like you told me. Now I want to get a reward.'' He pulled me near him and I tried to push him away but his my body was nothing to his.

''Please just give me my book. It isn't a big deal to give me that.'' I said gently.

''It isn't a big deal huh? I was keeping it for 3 fucking years! Not even peeking a bit in it and you say it's not a big deal? I still am into you, you know? I expect a kiss or something like that.''

''Please! I would got it earlier but I was too busy! Please don't hurt me!'' I begged him. I started to walk backwards until I got to the house wall and couldn't go on. He started to kiss my neck really harsh.

''It doesn't hurt. It's like when we were a couple do you remember?'' His hands slowly moved to my breast which got me crying.

''Please don't d-''

''Stop it! Let her go!'' Harry's loud voice suddenly chimed.

''Who are you? Superman? Mind your own business idiot.'' Austin said meanly to Harry.

'' You are just about to rape a girl. Now let her go.'' He still said calmly.

''Oh you are this one famous kid who is faking his personality in front of the camera. I see you aren't as nice as there. Now go away no one wants you here.'' Austin's hand was grabbing my arm really harsh and his fingers were pushed into my skin.

''If you won't go then I'll have to fight you until you aren't able to sing Save You Tonight anymore.''

Harry quickly went over to Austin and punched him right in his face which made him bleed out of his nose. His hands were loosing my arm and letting fall my book to floor. Now he was punching Harry really strong. It was all my fault I shouldn't he gone here with Harry! I quickly got my mobile out my jacket and dialed the police and told them to come as fast as possible. They were still hitting and kicking each other and I didn't know what to do.

''Stop! You are hurting each other! Stop it, you hear?'' But they still went on.

I had to do something really quickly before anyone dies!

''Stop it now!'' I yelled running towards them.

''Stop!'' I grabbed Austins shirt and tried to pull him back. Suddenly he turned around and hit me on my head which made me fall to the floor.
My tears were shotting out. I looked away so I couldn't see them hurting each other.
''How dare you hitting a girl?'' Harry shouted angrily and gave him the last kick until Austin was unconscious.

''Elena, are you alright?'' He ran over to me and looked in my face and so I did to his face.

''Harry your mouth is bleeding!'' I tried not to cry but it was just so hurting to see him being hurt.

''It doesn't even hurt but your cheek looks really bad! Did you call the police?''
How can he be that worried about me? He is hurt as well!
Then the police were showing up. After the whole thing.

''What happened here?'' One of the two police men was asking us.

''This guy was trying to rape her and I was stopping him.'' Harry answered.

''Can you confirm that?'' I nodded quickly and nervously.

''Ok we need to take you to the police station please follow me.''
