"Harry?" I look for him in the dark room.

"Harry, are you here?" I call for him again. After my emotional breakdown I came to his room first.

"Get out Bella." A voice tells me.

"But-"

"Are you deaf? Why do I have to repeat myself again and again?" He says. Tracing the sounds, I go near the bathroom door.

"You'll be dead and not a single soul will fucking notice that."

"You can't kill me! I won't let that happen." I hiss, even if I'm terrified on the inside.

"Look, you should appreciate the fact that I'm trying to have a civilized conversation. Or else I know swear words too."

He bursts out of the door.

"You don't smart-mouth me!" He says gripping my hair, making me look up at him. He pulls me towards the door.

"Harry stop! My head hurts!" The pain in the roots of my hair is unbearable. He's taking me outside again. I scream and punch him but he doesn't budge. We reach the main door.

"Harry-"

"Shh! Now I speak and you listen." He pushes me to the ground.

"You'll stay out here for the night. Freeze or die I don't care." He shuts the huge entrance in front of me, leaving me speechless. It's too cold, I can feel the goosebumps all over my body.

I lean against the wall next to the door. He wants me to break, to apologise, for God knows what, but I won't. This would be hard but I'll make it. Just one night. Just some hours. If I think that the weather isn't cold, maybe I'll feel better.

I rub my palms up and down my bare arms. It wasn't wise to wear a thin T-shirt today, not that I have a nice wardrobe full of clothes. I've been surviving in two shirts and two pairs of leggings, a blanket draped over my body if I feel too cold.

A breeze passes by, making my situation worse. Suddenly thunder flashes in the sky. Oh my god.

In some minutes it starts to pour, with strong winds blowing. I press myself to the wall in an attempt to not getting wet, but it seems impossible. There's no roof above my head. The raindrops are going crazy due to air currents.

My leggings are dripping wet and I'm starting to feel sick. I hug my knees closer, if that's even possible, to keep my upper body dry. The water drips through my hair, making it's way to my nostrils.

Due to shivering I inhale sharply, filling my lungs with air and a drop of water. I cough at the uneasy feeling in my windpipe, the pain in my throat and chest is growing. My feet have gone numb long back, the rest of my body now feeling the same way. The temperature of my skin is dropping dangerously low, I'm struggling to keep my eyes open.

"Oh my god! What are you doing here in this rain?" I hear a thick voice. I try to respond but my teeth are chattering and I fear if I speak, I'll bite my tongue badly. Two arms embrace me, the warm palms rub up and down my hands. I can't feel the rain.

"I.. Uhh.." Before I could complete my sentence, I'm enveloped in the dark.

...

"Ara! Honey wake up!"

"Wake up Arabella! You sleep like you're unconscious." Mum chuckles.

"Mum! Five more minutes please." I groan at the feeling of her fingers tickling me.

"Stop!" I let out a laugh in my raspy voice and hold her hands. She smiles brightly.

"Good morning mommy!" I hug her tightly.
