HARRY

My pig headed boss left 10 minutes early, giving me 10 minutes of peace and quiet. It was 8:00pm and it's time for me to close the shop. As I locked the doors to the store; I heard commotion coming from behind the shop. It sounds like grunts and moans, like someone was being hurt. I grabbed my mace from my purse and walked around back. I saw what looked like two men beating each other. As I began to walk closer I saw it was Harry and my boss. I rushed over to break them up when my eyes revealed a third male. It looks like my boss and a friend of his were jumping Harry.

I opened my mace and began spraying them in the eyes. The two men screamed in agony as I rushed over to the now unconscious Harry. The two men stumbled off into the darkness as I shook Harry conscious. His green orbs slowly opened as a smile danced across his face. I helped him to his feet as he towered over me. I drug him to my apartment and laid him down on the couch. He moaned in pain as I cleaned his blood wounds.

"Because I like you." he said in a tenuous voice. Catching me completely off guard.

"Excuse me?"

"The answer to your previous question. I saved you because I like you."

I walked him into my room and laid him down on my bed, before covering him up with a blanket. I was about to go and leave when he began to talk.

"Stay...please." he said in a pleading matter and patted the open space next to him.

I walked over to the other side of the bed and laid down on my back. He placed his head upon my heart as I began to play with his hair. It was silent for a while. The only sound in the room was the sound of our breathing. He rubbed circles on my stomach as he slowly drifted asleep.

"You said 'Do I not scare you?' why would you scare me?" I blurted out.

"Because I am a bad person." he said while sitting up.

"I know that."

"Hmh.. you really are naive." he said while chuckling to himself.

"What is that supposed to mean?" I said while sitting up.

"I am a bad person. I could hurt you but yet you don't care and that's what scares me." he said before hauling off and punching the wall centimeters from my head.

I flinched as my eyes widened. It was silence again. You could hear my heart racing in my chest.

"Why were you fighting my boss." I broke the silence.

"I wasn't fighting him. Him and his buddy jumped me while I was going to my car." he stopped himself.

"Harry I.."

"I don't want your pitty." he said before rolling over and pretending to sleep
