Hope

Harry's pov.

The innocence showed on her beautiful, sleeping face, the peaceful and serene dreams blocking out the dangers of the outside. The soft breathing making the world seem to stand still.
I didn't know how long I had been sitting here, admiring her.
But only now was I starting to notice the glimmer of light shining on her face.
I checked my watch. 7am.
I groaned inwardly. I had been watching her all night! Why? I wasn't sure. Let's just say I didn't want to leave her all alone when she was in such a vulnerable state.
I sunk into my chair.
I couldn't help wondering why. Why would anyone want to do such a thing? What could have driven her to do it, to jump in front of a train?
If I hadn't been there...


Kasey's pov.
My mind is fuzzy, the last remnants of a dream being chased away by the realisation that I am awake again.
It was a nice dream, something about sitting in a big oak tree in meadow full of flowers but the details are fading fast even as I try to recall them. With a mental sigh, I allow my brain to focus and cautiously open one eye. The bright spring sunlight cuts the room in half and I see dust-motes dancing in the wall of light. I pull the duvet up over my head to keep it out. It's not going to work, my brain is awake now.
I suddenly shook myself, and popped my head out of the covers.
This wasn't my room..
Then everything came back to me, I had tried to, tried to..
What was I thinking?! Stupid, stupid little girl.
I almost laughed at myself. How stupid and pathetic I was, I hadn't even made it to Doncaster-
Then I suddenly realized,I had no idea where I was.
In a room of a stranger.
What if he wants me for one thing?

Cautiously, I got out of his... bed.
I tiptoed out of his room, and through the hall, when a gorgeous smell of bacon drafted to my nostrils.
I froze.
I edged towards where the smell was coming from, and stood outside what must have been the kitchen door.
I heard a man's deep voice inside.
He was singing, and I listened in awe at the beauty of the lyrics.

♫" Oh I will carry you over fire and water for your love
And I will hold you closer
Hope your heart is strong enough
When the night is coming down on you
We will find a way through the dark"♫

I sighed to myself.
All the people and things that went before.
I felt a sudden rush of emotion, and a tear rolled down my cheek.

//Flashback//
"Shh shhh baby don't cry." I nuzzled my head into my mother's shining tawny hair.
I sniffled as more tears fell down.
"Awh, honey, please don't cry! Get back up and try again!" She smiled.
I had cut my knee, falling off my bike.
Mummy was teaching me, and she said that I was really good, but I needed some more practise.
"Ok," I mumbled.
"That's my girlie!" She laughed.
She gave me a cuddle, and I breathed in her sweet perfume.

Auntie Sheila was frantic with worry.
"Don't you worry, Kasey, mummy and daddy will be Ok," She forced a smile.
Mummy and daddy had been in an accident.
They had been rushed into hospital.
Auntie Sheila kept saying they would be Ok, but I didn't know if I should believe her..
She jumped when the phone started ringing.
Slowly, Sheila's quavering hand reached for the telephone.
"Yes?"She breathed into the speaker.
Her eyes widened in shock as she pressed her ear to the receiver.
"No. No, you can't possibly- No. It can't be!"
She dropped the phone and started sobbing.
I had heard enough.
I ran upstairs and slammed my door shut, locking it.
My head was pounding, in disbelief.
Had that just happened?
I prayed to god that it was a dream.

//End Of Flashback//

I was silently sobbing to myself now.
It had felt so real, like I could just reach out and touch her.
But I could never do that again.
I pulled myself together, wiping away the tears.

I fell through the door.
"Hey! Are you alright?" He was by my side, helping me up.
I flinched as his big, firm hands clasped my arm.
I hungrily glanced towards the bacon in the frying pan.
"You hungry?" He asked, his eyes desperately trying to catch mine.
I avoided his gaze, looking at the floor.
He walked away, and started to serve the bacon.
I took the plate and sat at the table.
I wolfed the sandwich down to find that he had already finished his, and was looking at me curiously.
I blushed, and looked down.
"What's your name?" He asked politely.
I doubted whether I should trust him.
I looked up, and caught eye contact with him, he gave me a sweet smile, showing his dimples.
"Kasey," I murmured.
"Harry," He smiled.
"Are you.. Ok?" He asked warily.
"Fantastic." I muttered, looking in his eyes.
He laughed, looking down.
"Ok, bad question."
There was an awkward silence.
"Where.. am I" I asked.
"Still in Leeds.. My flat is near the station."
"Oh, Ok."
"W-why did you do it?" He blurted out.
I winced, looking down.
"I-I don't know." I lied.
He looked at me curiously.
"Thank you." I realised I hadn't said thank you.
"For saving me." I looked down.
He looked at me curiously, yet again.
He leaned forward, and our eyes locked.
"You don't have to thank me," He breathed, our foreheads touching.

Sally's pov.
Suddenly a loud piercing stream of light exploded in my face .
I groaned, sinking down, under the covers.
It was school today.
Great.
Sally had been gone for two nights now.
Was I the only one who noticed?
It was 8:30. I only had 20 minutes to get ready.
Trust me, considering it takes me almost an hour to get ready, this was a challenge.

I quickly checked the mirror and ran downstairs to the bus.

I groaned inwardly. The only seat left was next to Michael.
I sat down, turning my body away from him.
" Sally," He whispered.
I ignored him.
"Sally, c'mon, don't be like this!"
I glared at him.
"I have trusted you with my biggest secret! And you still treat me like shit," I spat, "This isn't a game, Michael."
He opened his mouth, and shut it again. Goldfish.

"Sallayyy!!!!!!!!" Jade and Cara chorused, running towards me in their heels.
We did a little group hug.
"I missed you like so much babes!" Cara smiled
"Omg, Yeah babes!" Jade blew me a kiss.
"Sam has been waiting for you!" Cara giggled.
Oh, god, Sam. How could I look him in the eye again?
"Hey sexy." I jumped when I felt him behind me.
"Sam! I've missed you so much!" I hugged him, and we kissed.
"Me too," He winked.
Hm, missed me or my body?
I saw Michael, staring and I tensed, pulling away from Sam.
"What is it babe?" He asked.
"N-nothing, I've just got to get to class." I lied.
"Oi, Sally where are you going?" Jade called.
"N-nowhere! Just meet me in science, yeah?" I replied.
I didn't know where I was going, just wandering the corridors.
I felt someone's presence behind me.
I quickened my pace.
I felt two hands on my hips.
I spun round.
"Michael?" I was shocked.
"Shhh," He grinned, pulling me into a classroom
His soft lips crashed into mine, and I kissed him back passionately.
He wrapped his arms around my waist, deepening the kiss, and my fingers got tangled in his mass of hair.
He pressed me up against the wall, his hands cupping my thighs.
I sent soft kisses up his neck, and he let out a soft, throaty moan.
Suddenly, the door swung open.
We sprang apart, swearing.
"What on earth are you two doing in here?" Miss Spring shouted, shocked.
"Oh, er, nothing, we were just um-"
"Disgraceful behaviour!" She shouted.
We fell out of the class room, laughing
