Different

Chapter 11

Recommended song: kiss you

It's been two hours since I left my aunt's house and I'm still driving. There was a diversion on the road so I lost myself in the countryside. It's foggy and rainy and I can't see anything. And in England they drive on the other side of the road, which confuses me even more. I wish I could ask someone the way back to London but the road is deserted.
I could call someone who knows the country better than me but I don't really know people there. Apart from Harry. After all I decide to call him.

"Charlotte ?" He immediately answers

"Hey Harry hmm I'm lost in the countryside and I have no GPS could to tell me if I'm on the right way to London ? The closest village is called Preymouth "

"Wait a minute, I'll look on my phone"

"Sure. Thanks"

"You're at two hours away from London. It will be difficult for you to find your way back. And it's so foggy and rainy so I'd prefer to pick you up"

"No Harry don't worry, I don't want to - OH MY GOD" I yell.
A stag crosses the road, and then everything happens very fast. I brutally turn the wheel to avoid it, and my car swerves from the road and plummet down to the ravine. Then I blackout.

Harry's point of view

"Charlotte !" I shout in the phone

No answer.

"Charlotte what happened ? What was that ? Charlotte please !" I worry.

Shit. I run to my car and put the address in the GPS. I'm more than worried. The last thing I heard was her screaming and the loud noise of a crash. I need to calm down. I have two hours of trajet before finding her. I hope nothing serious happened to her. I care about her so much. I've only known her for a month but still. I try to call her again but I fell straight to her Voicemail. I don't know how I am going to find her. I don't have her exact location, it's raining cats and dogs and there is a lot of fog.

Finally after driving for two hours I see her car in the ravine on the side of the road. Fuck I hope it's not too bad.
I rush to her, she's leaning against the wheel of her car. Her hands are bloody, her eyes are flushed and her mascara is ruined. She's soaked and the drops of the rain flow on her forehead. She's shaking and looks so weak. I take her into my arms and carry her to my car.

"Harry" she whispers in a little voice

"I'm here" I say as I wrap her with a cover "how are you feeling?" I touch her forehead. It's burning.

"Not well... I'm frozen... My arm hurts. I feel nauseous" she says her teeth chattering.

"Have some rest, I'll bring you back to my place" I say trying to warm her with my arms and getting behind the wheel

Charlotte's point of view

When I wake up I take some time to realise where I am. I see Harry sitting on my bed, leaning towards me and looking at me with a friendly smile. Actually it's not my bed. It's Harry's.

"How are you feeling ?" He says

"Still bad" I make a face. My arms hurts so much but I don't want to worry him.

"I called the doctor. He'll be here in a few minutes. I think you have a fever"

"Thank you Harry. Not just for that, but for everything. I'd probably still be freezing to death if you hadn't come to pick me up."
