Just A Little Bit Of Your Heart (Prince Harry)

Charlie’s POV

“It's because of that Harry guy isn't it? You found a new guy who has more muscles than me with an accent so you don’t want me anymore.” Dylan said after I broke the news.

“What? Are you fucking kidding me? I just met the guy a few hours ago!” I exclaimed as I looked at him. “We've been on what? Two dates? And you're already accusing me of being that shallow. I told you before we even went out that I wasn't sure that I would have feelings for you. I went out with you because you begged me to try and I did, but I still don't feel anything for y-”

I was cut off by his lips crashing into mine as he pushed me into the wall, probably harder than he intended because I hoped he would never push me that hard on purpose. A small yelp fell from my lips and it gave him enough of an advantage to push his tongue into my mouth. I squirmed in his grip, immediately feeling sick to my stomach. When I finally managed to get over the shock I bit down hard on his lip, seeing him jump back to touch the now bleeding area.

“Charlie, what the fu-”

This time I cut him off with a hard slap to the face. I shoved him away from me then quickly walked to the door, ignoring him as I went straight to the stairs because I didn't want to wait for the elevator. I ran down the stairs a level to get to Harry’s floor and knocked on the door, because at the moment a complete stranger felt safer than my best friend.

“Charlie!” I heard Dylan’s voice as he appeared at the end of the hall.

‘Please open the door... ‘

I knocked again a little more urgently and thankfully it was opened by Louis. I quickly slipped in and shut the door behind me, making sure it was locked so he wouldn’t be able to get in. As I turned around I saw all four boys looking at me a bit confused as they peered down the small hallway of their dorm suit.

Harry’s POV

“Are you okay?” I asked as I slowly stepped closer to her as she pressed herself to the door. The poor girl looked terrified.

A sudden bang on the door made her jump and she quickly ran to me, clinging to my body as her hands gripped onto my shirt.

“Charlie, open the door! I know you're in there! Look I'm sorry. Please just talk to me.” Dylan said on the other side.

I furrowed my brows and frowned as I glanced down at her, seeing her smudged lipstick which helped me put the pieces together.

“Listen to me. Go to my room and I'll deal with him okay?” I told her. “It's the one at the end.”

She seemed hesitant, but nodded and I passed her off to Louis who walked her to my room while I opened the door and immediately grabbed onto the front of Dylan’s shirt, shoving him back until he hit the wall.

“If you ever touch her without her consent again you'll have to deal with me. And you don't want that.” I growled, fighting the urge to punch his face in right then and there.

“Fuck off. This is between me and her. You don't even know her.” Dylan snapped as he pushed me off.

“I don't have to to know she's not into you. Get over it and move on or you'll lose her for good. You scared the shit out of her you dumbass. You'll be lucky if she ever talks to you again. Now get out of here before I call campus police.” I warned.

He looked like he wanted to argue so badly, but he just stormed off. I made sure he got on the elevator before going back into the suit and heading back to my room. Louis had given her a blanket which she wrapped around her shoulders and she had a bottle of water in her hands, but I could tell she wouldn’t be able to drink it based on how badly her hands were shaking.

“So, Charlie. Is that short for anything? Charlotte? Charleen maybe?” I asked, trying to get her focus off what he did to her.

She cracked a small smile which was the most I would expect from her right now.

“Just Charlie…” She said quietly.

“Well, Just Charlie. I can walk you back to your dorm if you want. Or you can stay here. I'll sleep on the floor.” I said softly as I looked at her, not wanting to kick her out when she was like this or send her off to be alone.

“I'm not going to make you sleep on the floor so if you'll walk me home that would be great.” she said softly.

I watched her start to take the warm blanket off but I stopped her.

“Keep it. It's kinda chilly out.”

She nodded and wrapped it around her body as we stood up, walking out into the hallway once more. Liam stepped out and gave me a look after I told them where I was going but I shook my head.

“I'm just taking her home. I have my phone. I'll be fine.” I assured them as I walked out with Charlie then shut the door behind me.

“They all looked so concerned about you leaving.” Charlie teased as a bigger smile worked its way across her lips.

“They've looked out for me since I was young. They're like the big brothers I never had.” I chuckled and smiled softly.

“I have two older brothers so I know what that's like. They're always so overprotective, but I'm perfectly capable of handling myself.”

Not even a second later she tripped over the uneven sidewalk and I quickly grabbed onto her.

“You were saying?” I teased.

“Shut up. Clumsiness doesn’t count.” she laughed and playfully pushed me away as we started walking again.

It was nice to see her smiling and laughing again. I kept the topic on anything but Dylan as we walked the three blocks down to her dorms up until we reached her door.

“So I suppose this is goodnight then.” I said as I leaned against the wall to look at her.

“You can stay if you want… Jenna is gone so her bed is free. She lets her friend use mine all the time when I'm gone so she owes me.” She said.

“Are you sure?” I asked her, wanting to make sure that she wasn’t just trying to be nice.

She bit her lip and nodded slightly.

“Please? I know we just met but I don't really want to be alone right now and I don't have anyone else to call.” She said quietly as she messed with her keys.

I reached over and gently lifted her chin to get her to look at me.

“I'll stay as long as you need me to.” I say softly.

Her cheeks flushed and she quickly nodded then turned away to unlock her door. A soft chuckle fell from my lips and I followed her in, seeing that the small room consisted of a bed on each side of the room, two desks next to them, and a closet for each side as well.

“I have to change. Make yourself comfortable.” she said as she stepped onto her closet and shut the door a bit, but I could still see her through the small crack she left.

I knew I shouldn’t look, but I couldn't help myself. She entranced me like no one ever has and the moment I saw the back side of her body I knew I was hooked. She didn't know who I was, or if she did she didn't care, and it was like coming up for a breath of fresh air after drowning for so long.

I knew right then that she would either be my saving grace or my downfall.
