~Sam's P.O.V~
*two weeks later*
Finally it was Friday, the day I was to be released from the hospital. I was so happy to be able to get up and walk outside in the fresh air. I had been locked up in a damn building for three weeks total now, and I was starting to go insane. Harry had still not went to school, and he was in deep trouble for it. His mom found out yesterday that he was skipping school to go see me when he said he wasn't. Honestly, it's pretty funny. But I didn't care, because I was getting out of here.
Karen came into the room with a bag of my clothes.
Slowly undressing, I changed into the sweatpants and hoodie from the bag that she brought. Harry came into the room and smiled.
I put on a small one in return, for I just wanted to get out already.
"You're starting to gain weight again." He said, kissing my cheek.
I nodded. "I'm at one-hundred-four now."
He intertwined our fingers together and we walked out of the room.
"You got everything?" He asked.
I shook my head and we went out, Karen following shortly behind.
I was walking normally, my arm was almost healed, but my bruises were now starting to turn shades of brown and yellow. The gash in my forehand was doing well too, but I still had those stitches in.
"I signed all of the release papers and we should be all set." Karen called out to me.
We went down the elevator and I saw the front doors and smiled.
Going outside, I took in a fresh breath of the crisp cold early December air.
Harry laughed and shook his head.
"What?" I asked defensively.
"Nothing babe." He chuckled.
I snorted and we walked over to his car.
"I'll see you at home." Karen said.
I waved and got into the car.
We drove out of the parking lot and down the road.
It was silent, and I stared out the window looking at all the cars and trees and houses and buildings passing by.
"Sam." Harry sighed.
I turned my head and looked over at him. "Yeah?"
He took his one had off the steering wheel and rested it on my inner thigh.
I flinched away from the touch, for it reminded me of what horror I went through.
My eyes darted away from him and I felt embarrassed. Harry would never do anything to me, I was just scared.
I could see him looking at me out of the corner of his eye and he frowned.
"I-I',m sorry." I mumbled.
He nodded and removed his hand. "No. I'm sorry."
I shook my head in response. "No. It's not your fault. It's my fault I'm a stupid fucking orphan. If I was never born, you would be in school. You would be getting high grades. You wouldn't of had to skip the like three weeks you did. You wouldn't be this exhausted. You wouldn't have to hover over me twenty four seven now. You wouldn't have to worry about me. I'm a waste of time, a waste of space. I hate this. I wish they would of killed me. I'm sorry I fell for you. I'm sorry I put you through this much stress."
By then, tears were streaming out of my eyes and I was shaking with fear, fear of what he would say.
Harry slammed on the brakes and pulled over on the side of the road.
He looked at me with proably the most serious death stare I have ever seen.
"If I hear those words EVER come out of your mouth again, I will fucking slap you. I don't care about any of that 'stress'" he said, quoting stress. " it's worth it. You're the love of my fucking life Sam. I don't care about my grades, or my fucking attendance for bloody christ's sake. I care about you. You're my top priority right now. But I can't believe that you said that you wish that they would of killed you. You think I would be fucking here right now? I was ready to kill myself. I was the reason that you disappeared. I should of fucking drove you home that day. I will never forgive myself." He stopped and stared out the window for a moment.
"Sam, when.... when you were being life flighted back to the hospital," he paused, taking in a shaky breath "you.. You died." His voice cracked.
My eyes burned with tears. "No.."
He shook his head solemnly. "Yes. I didn't know what to do. I just sat there dumbfounded, not knowing what to do. I was devastated. But they brought you back. Sam, I don't know what I would do without you. If they couldn't of brought you back, I would of had to live the rest of my life remembering how you died right in front of my eyes. I love you. You don't understand how much I do."
I climbed over into his seat and hugged him, crying into his chest. ,I'm sorry. I'm so, so, so sorry Harry. I love you too. I never should of said that. I didn't know."
He rubbed my back and rested his chin on my head. "I love you baby girl, and I will never let you go."
We embraced for a while before I pulled away. "I'm sorry."
He frowned. "Don't apologize. Just don't. It's Okey."
I smiled slightly and we drove home. I let him have his hand on my thigh this time.
When we pulled into my driveway, I got out of the car and went up to the front door.
I had my hand on the doorknob, but I couldn't bring myself to turn it.
Harry was right beside me holding my hand. "It's alright baby."
I turned the knob and walked inside.
Louis, Brooke, Niall, Liam, and Zayn were all on the couch talking to each other.
"SAM!" Louis screeched.
I waved.
Everyone jumped up and ran over to hug me gently, knowing that my side was still in major pain.
"Welcome home." Brook said, tearing up.
"It's been a while." I joked lightly.
"Where's Karen?" Harry asked.
"She went to go get a few things that she forgot." Zayn answered.
I nodded.
"How are you?" Niall asked.
I shrugged. "I need my medicine."
Harry put my bag on the table and dug through it to find my medicine.
He got me a glass of water and handed me the pills.
I sat down on the couch and took them.
"That coffee table is so much better than the other one." I said, wrinkling my nose at the thought of the old one.
Everyone laughed.
"I wanna go to school." I said.
"Karen said she got you a tutor to help you catch up on a whole bunch of stuff." Liam smiled.
"Who?" I asked.
He laughed. "Me."
I laughed along with him. "Nice."
We all talked about what was new.
All of a sudden, I remembered Casey.
"Where's Casey?" I blurted.
Everyone stopped and looked at me.
"Casey... She's Uh... She's still at school. Why?"
"She's a slut. A skank. A whore. I hate her."
Harry turned slightly pale.
I didn't bring it up, I would talk to him in public.
Karen came through the door with a couple of bags.
"Hi!" Everyone said.
"Hello everyone." She smiled.
I felt as if my life was slightly normal again.
After dinner, everyone said bye and that they would see me in school Monday.
At around nine, I was wiped out and wanted to sleep.
Harry walked me up to my room and helped me change.
I noticed that my mirror wa replaced and the glass and blood was gone. My room was very clean, which most likely wouldnt last long.
He helped me get my hoodie off and find a nice baggy shirt that I could wear.
As I got it on, he planted kisses along my neck. "I love you." He said.
I smiled and slowly got into bed, my side hurting like a bitch.
"Stay." I whined, as he was about to leave the room.
"I'm not leaving. I just want to go grab my phone really quick." He smiled and went out.
I grabbed my own and just stared at it. I was scared to turn it on, to see what messages I would see.
Finally, getting the guts to, I did turn it on and I instantly got messages from a shit ton of people from school.
Praying for you Sam.
I miss you. ),:
I hope you're Okey.
Blah blah blah I don't even talk to half of these fucking people.
I got a message from Brooke.
Brooke: there's a whole website page dedicated to finding you. It's like a nation wide thing now.
Me: don't even want to see it omfg. I'm going to sleep. Xx
Brooke: night (:
Harry came back into the room and slid into bed next to me.
He pulled me close and smiled. "I love you."
"And I love you." I yawned.
I was almost asleep when I remembered the Casey thing.
"Harry, I'm proud of you." I said.
"Huh?" He said with confusion.
"I'm proud of you. For not kissing Casey back."
He proved himself up with one elbow. "How did you find out?"
"She had a hidden camera on her I guess. I saw you fighting back. That was what was supposed to finally break me. But it didn't. It have me the hope I needed to survive."
He kissed me lightly. "I love you. I would never do that to you."
Closing my eyes, I slowly fell asleep, knowing I was finally completely safe with Harry.
