I lifted up my shirt, revealing scars that Harry must have missed, they were small-but clear- bite marks. One beneath each of my breasts, scars that would forever bring back horrid memories of the man who did this to me. I took another deep breath, and started explaining that horrific night, just like I had for Harry and the girls. Everyone was crying by the time I finished, even me. I was glad it was over, but I was also sad that I had let my deepest darkest secret go. Twisted, I know, but I felt like now I was even more unworthy than I had been keeping it in. Liam was on his knees, as was Niall. Zayn had silent tears running down his face, and Louis was hiding his face in a pillow. They were all bawling, and I felt horrendous for putting them through this. Tatiana was in hysterics, gasping and making tiny little shrieks, beacuse this was still news to her. I suppose I did elaborate a bit more what happened, because when I told the girls, I was afraid of not being accepted. All of the girls were making tiny shrieking noises, like someone in pain and grieving the death of someone close.
We all sat in the room for a few more minutes, well, it felt like minutes, but could have been hours. We were all crying and trying not to lose it and go into hysterics, although we were all pretty close. I finally stood and put my shirt back on, and wiped the last little tears from my eyes. I was almost done, just a few more tears. Tatiana stood up, as did El, Dani, and Perrie. They all gave me a giant hug and told me they'd be there for me.
"Just know, Christina, that I love and adore you, with all my heart. You're my little sister, my babysitter, my fan, my everything, all of you girls and boys are, just know that. And Christina, if you need anything, anyone, you can always take to me for a shoulder to cry on, a boy to shop with, a mate to snuggle with, and a person to tell your secrets to," Liam finished off grandly, his voice gravely from crying so much. All the boys nodded in unison in agreement with what Liam had said and Harry looked hurt.
"Christina, may I talk to you for a moment?" he said, and I suddenly became worried. What if he was going to ask me to leave? What if he thought I wasn't good enough for him? A thousand thoughts went through my head, clouding my vision.
My voice became hoarse as I answered, "Yeah, sure."
He lead me off into the kitchen and put his head in his hands. He took a deep breath and tried to steady himself. I could see it in his eyes that he was killing himself inside, just like I did everyday. He was internally battling himself, and song lyrics swam through my head.
"Look, Christina, you know I love you right?" Harry started warily. I could already see where this was going, and only nodded my head, "And you know I would do anything for you, right?" I nodded again, "Then hear me out. I love you to the ends of the Earth, so don't think that I brought you in here to leave you," I let out a breath I wasn't aware I was holding, "I love you to no degree even thought humanly possible, but I have a deep dark secret too. One that happened the same night that you were raped, one that may change your perspective of me."
**HARRY'S POV**
It hurt having to tell her that it was my ex-friend who had raped her. When I saw the bite marks underneath her breasts, I knew it was him. That was his signature, every girl he had sex with, he did that to them. It hurt me to know that she would probably hate me for being associated with this boy, but I had to tell her. I knew she had looked familiar when she walked through the studio doors. She had been my date that I had picked up at the party, that bastard stole her, and I thought she wanted it. I didn't know that he had done this, and it hurt and burned and I wanted to make it stop.
"I was at the party the night you were raped," I could see her stiffen, "I was the boy you were dancing with before that bastard picked you up. Do you remember?" I didn't wait for an answer, "He stole you, and I let it happen. I didn't realize what had happened until I saw the bite marks on you, it was his signature. He is dead now, someone shot him in venegence for Ariella's death. But I was the boy who didn't save you, and now I wish with all my gut that I could take back every moment and keep you by my side, but that may mean that now, our love wouldn't exist. Can you ever forgive me?"
"Harry, it wasn't your fault, don't think it was. I shouldn't have gone up with him, and I don't wish that didn't happen to me. Because it made me who I am today, who I am is a singer;fighter;dancer;believer. And I am also the girl madly in love, and I love what it is doing to me," she finished off strongly and positively. We both shared a moment of understanding before stepping back into the livingroom.
Everyone was by the door, listening to our conversation. Louis clapped me on the back, "Sorry that had to happen, mate," he said and gave El a hug.
**CHRISTINA'S POV**
When he told me that he was the boy at the party, not the one who raped me, I stiffened instinctively. I did find that I could forgive him, because it really wasn't his fault. He looked so guilty, battling himself over something that wasn't even his fault or fight. When I stepped out, I saw Louis pull Harry off, and I felt guilty about all the drama. I decided to take everybody out to a club.
"Boys and girls, we are going out tonight, to a club, go get ready!" I said and the girls and I rushed off to get dressed. When we were dressed and prepped, we stepped out. Louis in red spenders, a blue and white striped shirt, and tan pants. Harry was in a plaid button-up shirt that was unbuttoned most of the way down, and tight jeans. Liam was in a white shirt with the sleeves rolled up casually, and black pants. Niall was in a tee shirt and shorts. All were wearing converse, and looked absolutely stunning.

We were all beautiful and were strutting down the street as we walked to the club. Luckily for us, the paparazzi was nowhere to be seen, but we still kept our eyes out, because you never know where they'll pop out next. We walked all the way to the club, and when we got there, the girls and I were already drunk off life.
We started off with a few shots, 4 rounds exactly, and I was still going strong. I was partial to alcohol, because it took all the pain away from my head and heart. Harry and I both were drinking shots like crazy, and it turned into a competition really. It was crazy, and Louis was waiting nearby to hold my hair, while Perrie was dancing with Zayn and El was preparing to run me to the bathroom. Tatiana was somewhere with Niall, and I could only fell happy for her. Liam and Danielle were off talking and dancing, discussing some important topic which often ended with Danielle kissing Liam and him smiling. I was on shot 10 and margarita 3-the extra large kind-when I got the feeling someone was watching me. I looked around, and saw a man who made my skin crawl looking at me with a malicious smile on his face. Also, there was a tall blonde girl with blue eyes and tons of red lipstick.
I took another shot, thinking that the alcohol was hitting my brain. El looked enraged, as the girl with blonde hair was talking to the man who looked like he was trained to kill. They started walking over to me, and Harry looked entranced by her beauty. She was pretty, but he was mine. I had to believe that, I had to, I couldn't let him hurt me. If he did, I would build a wall up, that was my resolve.
"Taylor, go away," El said, annoyed.
"Oh, is boo-bear's girlfriend gonna stick up for the newbie?" Taylor taunted, I automatically hated her. I tried to keep a calm face, but I could feel the anger bubbling up into my throat and potentially on my face.
"No, newbie is going to stick up for herself," I said, feeling bold with the alcohol in my veins. Although, I probably would still stand up to her.
"Oh, don't try to play that game, I always win," Taylor laughed evily, and the greasy man stepped closer to us, smiling evily just like Taylor had laughed.
"I play all kinds of games, and I usually win, because I am a tough bitch," I had to look up to look her in the eyes, but I did, and I suppose I looked scary enough because she turned and walked away. The big man disappeared too, and El was staring at me like I was crazy.
"What?" I asked after a few moments of stares from Harry, El, and Louis.
"You are gonna have hell tomorrow, that was a paparazzi man, and he loves Taylor. That is why he is with her, you are is soo much fucking trouble," Louis said, rubbing his face.
"Then, I suppose, we should cause some of both tonight," I said, grabbing Harry and dragging him to the dancefloor, "Let's dance, I'm a dancer," I whispered in his ear.
Harry was excited, and his "happiness" was pressed up against my dress as I danced on him. I couldn't help it, I wanted to tease him. How? I was touching everywhere. And I was enjoying it too, he was turned on, and slightly angry looking, but I kept going. Wobble came on, and I couldn't help it, I got up on his penis and started grinding and dancing. It wasn't bad, and was actually quite fun really, teasing him like that. When the song ended, he took me back to the V.I.P section. We were joined by the other boys, and we played so many drinking games, me and Harry always dominating. Niall and Tatiana were second, so it wasn't too bad. When we left, all of us looked drunk and ratchet as hell.
Paul picked us up, and drove us home. Harry and I got intimate in the car, even though everyone was there. I was on his lap, kissing him, he was rubbing my legs and hips. We were passionate, and Paul cleared his throat many times in an attempt to get us to get off of eachother. He have up after about the 5th time, and resigned with a sigh.
When we got to the house, I practically dragged Harry into the bedroom. It was quick, steamy, intimate, and definately a relief after our earlier talk. We heard giggles outside the door multiple times, but we didn't stop and kept going. It was amazing, and when we climaxed, there were grunts and groans of pleasure. It was amazing, and we rolled over panting.
"That was amazing, Harry," I said, still panting.
"You were better," Harry kissed me.
"Can we snuggle? I want to snuggle," I cuddled up to him and fell asleep in his arms.
**HARRY'S POV**
I knew the instant that she stepped out of her room that she and I were going to have fun tonight. But what I didn't expect was Taylor being there, that was a shocker. She was nagging Christina, and Christina got all in her face, and Taylor was scared enough to leave. I knew that tomorrow, though, the "fight" would be all over the papers, and we would never get a moment of rest. It was worth it though, I got to see all of her. I couldn't forget our earlier conversation.
She looked so broken when she told me about her experience after her rape, and then when I tried to push her, it was like I had broken a glass window and she was about to scream. If she had let herself, she probably would. I felt bad when she told me about how she had to pick up her own pieces, with no one there to help. That her father had almost kicked her out, but found her in her room and used her as a record deal. The fact that she was being exploited made me want to take her home with me, and never let her go, but what amazed me was even crazier. She could walk out of a situation like that with a smile on her face, even if sometimes it is fake.
When we left the club, she was so eager it was hard to resist. She was ready, and she wanted relief, which I gave her. She wanted to snuggle, and I was more than willing to snuggle. I felt so happy as she drifted off to sleep, completely safe in my arms and willing to do anything for me. She was so comforted by me, and I was so happy that she was. She trusted me, and I couldn't betray her trust.
I drifted off to sleep, and dreamt of her.
