Harry and Alexis have just done some serious shopping and the buggy was filled to the brim with groceries it was raining so they both had jackets on with their hoods up

They were on the way back to his car discussing what he's cooking for dinner

"I mean stuffed Tivoli, that's the  spinach, cream cheese, and red sauce in the big shell" he suggested "or maybe a different kinda pasta" he looked at the basket "Oh I got it okay I'll make tacos you've been asking for tacos" she was being quiet "you're good with tacos?" He turned he didn't see her at his side

He spun around he spotted her several paces back staring off somewhere to her right "BABY!" She jumped and looked at him she jogged over

"You alright?" He asked glancing out toward where she had been staring

"Yeah! Yeah Sorry I thought I saw someone I knew..." she trailed off fixing her hood it was just drizzling nothing too crazy

"Was it?" He asked

She shrugged he frowned "you sure you're okay?"

She looked up at him with a gentle smile "yeah babe I'm okay"

They rode home together Harry noticed she was still being quiet they got to his house they brought in the groceries together

She got better as they danced around together in the kitchen as they cooked the meat together for the tacos

But she was off Harry asked once again if she was okay and all she did was reassure him she was fine

He didn't think she was fine, she was acting different

They went to bed together it's Saturday night so they went to bed around 1 am

It was about 3 am now Harry heard something

He reached behind himself checking the bed for Alexis but the space was empty he frowned and rolled over the lights were all off his bathroom door was open so he knew she wasn't in there

He listened to the noise it was like shaky gasping he sat up leaning to his bedside he turned on his lamp

He jolted when he saw her she was sitting in the corner of his room on the floor under the desk he had "Baby girl..." he got up "what are you doing?"

She was breathing rapidly "I-I can't b-breathe" she was shaking

He got out of bed "where's your purse? I'll get your inhaler Baby" she didn't answer he groaned he looked around his room then ran downstairs he looked on the coffee table, the bar, by the front door that's all the places she usually put it he spun around he spotted it by the right end of his sofa he grabbed the whole purse and ran upstairs with it

He came back and she was holding onto one of the table legs she was crying and shaking violently it dawned on him this was not an asthma attack

He walked over slowly he sat in front of her she looked at him tears rolling down her face "H-Harry I'm s-so scared" she whispered

He opened his arms "co'mere baby" he said hushedly she lunged at him wrapping her arms and legs around him digging her nails into the flesh of his back he wrapped his arms around her trying to not pay attention to the pain "tell me what's wrong? what happened?"

"Sh-She tried to drown me" she spoke quietly into his ear

He pulled her back making her panic and claw at him to try to stay in his arms "who tried to drown you?" Alexis started to breath more erratically
