Taken Back (Harry Styles Fan Fic)

Chapter 4: Confused

Like I suspected the car ride home was awkward, the only words exchanged between harry and I, were of me telling him my address. Luckily to drown out the awkward silence harry turned up the music on his radio but not too loud since Hilary is passed out in the backseat. My apartment isn't that far from where the party was but, being in this car made it seem like I lived hours away and it sucks.

After what seemed to be forever we finally reached my apartment. I got out of the car and slowly opened Hillarys' door and tried to wake her up, but I had no luck. There was only one thing I could do to get her out of this car; I needed to ask Harry to help me with her and to take her upstairs. When I asked he looked like he could careless but after 5 minutes of saying please he finally gave in and helped me. He walked over to me and scooped Hilary up and followed me to my building. We rode the elevator up to my place, and it was just as awkward as the car ride.

We got to my apartment and I pulled my keys out of my bag and opened the door then lead him inside and to my spare bedroom. Yes, I know I know you're probably wondering why I have a two bedroom apartment if I'm living on my own, and to be honest I was hoping when I moved here I would be able to find a roommate but that didn't go as I planned it. After Harry set her down he walked out of the room, after he left I walked over to Hilary and took off her heels and pulled the bed comforter over her and went over to the blinds to shut them cause I know in the morning she's going to have a killer headache and the sun wouldn't help her any. After that I slowly made my way out of the room and out to the living to go find Harry, but he wasn't there. I'm guessing he left. I wanted to tell him thanks but I guess that I can't now.

After I noticed that harry left I went over to my door and locked it, then went into my bedroom to grab some pajamas and then I headed back to the bathroom to wash my face and of course as soon as I look in the mirror I wasn't surprised cause sure enough there was a bruise under my eye starting to form. I just hope that It doesn't getting any worse than that. After I was done with that I made my way into the kitchen to make some tea. After I made my tea I headed over to the couch to watch TV. When I reached for the remote that was on the coffee table I found a note laying right beside it. I picked it up and it read:

Don't worry about texting Nathan tonight, I'll tell him you made it home alright. And I hope your eye is okay, put some ice on it.

-Harry

Wow that was nice of him; I thought he could care less.

After I read the note and watched some TV while I finished my tea I decided that it was time for bed. I walked to the kitchen and set my empty mug into the sink and went to bathroom to brush teeth. I didn't find the need to put ice on my eye since I going to bed. After I was done with that I went to my bedroom to lay down. I put my phone on my night stand, I thought about texting Nathan but then I remembered that Harry said he was going to tell him for me, I can trust Harry right? With that thought I decided to go to sleep, well at least that was what I was hoping to do but it didn't really happen. I tossed and turned all night replaying all the events that happened tonight, the parts where I got pushed up against the wall, that creeps hand trying to go up my dress, and his hand connecting with my cheek when I tried to push him off, the only thing that seemed to calm me down was replaying the part when Harry helped me, and of course the feeling I got when I kissed him. Wait stop it Peyton, you only kissed him cause your guard was down, you were at a moment of weakness, But thinking about Harry helped me out of that situation kind of kept me calm enough so I could fall asleep, and I did.

The next morning I woke up kind of early, it was around 8:30. So I decided that since I know Hilary is going to have a hangover; that I would go get us some breakfast. With that I got out of bed and headed to the bath rom to take a shower, after about 10 minutes I finally get out of the shower and wrap myself in a towel and head back to my room to put some clothes on. When I get to my room I go over to my dresser to put on underwear and a black sports bra and black yoga Capri pants then threw my hair into a messy bun, after that I head over to my closet and get my Victoria's Secret 'PINK' zip up hoodie jacket and slip on my black sandals. I didn't even bother to look at my appearance in the mirror because I'm pretty sure my eye wasn't that bad, I dint look bad when I got home last night and it didn't hurt this morning so let's hope it went away. I get my wallet and keys and head to the door, before I left I wrote a note and left it on the coffee table next to the remote in case she woke up early, but I highly doubt that will happen.
