I went to the kitchen to open the thing. My heart missed a beat. The package contained a teddy bear. Not very creepy or anything, except for the fact that it wore a necklace that I’d lost months ago. I’d lost it at Tyson’s house. So, no doubt who’d send this. “Hey little girl, what’s wrong?” Harry wrapped his arms around me. I pushed him away. “Please. Do NOT call me like that.” I tried to control my breath, not succeeding. “Sooo, what’s in the mystery package and who sent it.” Great, I didn’t need Melissa right now. “I am sorry.” I needed some air right away. And not the same those annoying Barbie’s were breathing. I went out through the backdoor and wanted to run. Two more months. Then the year was over, I kept telling that myself. But, I knew that he wouldn’t stop. I fell down under a random tree and curled up. I hated my life. And myself. How did I even fall for Tyson in the first place? And if I’d listened to everybody else, I wouldn’t be in this situation right now. “Hey, don’t cry little girl.” I tensed. No. It was bad enough that he’d been there in Zealand, but not here, not today. He took my hands and kissed both of them. “Back off,” I groaned. He pulled me on my feet. “Come on, time to get you out of here.” I tried to push him away. “Leave me alone.” My voice trembled. “Everything will be alright little girl.” “Leave me alone!” He froze for a moment. His grip around my wrist tightened. “Don’t speak to me like that.” He pushed me against a wall. I looked into his cold, blue eyes. They were furious. “Wakeup,” I heard Harry’s voice.

“Elizabeth, wakeup.” That was weird. I’d never heard him use my full name. He always called me Liz. I desperately looked around, searching for him. “There is nobody to take you away.” Tyson whispered. “Please, don’t do this to me.” A tear rolled down my cheek. “Elizabeth!”

My eyes flew open. It took me exactly one seconds to start crying. “You’re safe, no one can hurt you,” Harry whispered several times, but it didn’t help. It was so real. “I’ll handle this,” he said and when I looked up, I saw Mila, Louis and Phoebe. Reluctantly, they left. Harry took my headphones from my desk. He took his phone out. “What are you doing?” “This always helps when my sister has nightmares.” He gave me the headphones. I was surprised by his choice of music. “Can you stay, please.” As soon as I spoke the words, I regretted them. “Of course.” He laid down beside me and wrapped his arms around me. I couldn’t sleep anymore, but the music certainly calmed me. Why me?
