I'm not going anywhere

WILLOW'S POV
I'm walking home now, I texted River telling him I got an early mark so I'm gonna walk alone, that's not true I just ran as fast as I could so I would be ahead of them. I want to try and wash up as much as I can before they get home.

I run to the door and unlock it with my key, once I'm inside I'm lock it again to slow them down a bit if I need it, I pull my shirt off and start soaking it in my bathroom sink, the water goes red I'm so angry at myself

I stare at my self in the mirror. My face is stained with dry blood, cuts and bruises. Callum really messed me up, I wipe away what I can so my face is clean but there is nothing I can do about the massive Bruise on my nose or the slice between my eyes. I'm not sure how that got there to be honest.

"Willow! Were home!" Fuck I lock the bathroom door and turn on the shower so they don't disturb me. I rinse the shirt with hot water but it's not helping

"Fuck!" I groan loudly there is still so much in the fabric that I can't get out.

"Will?" River is knocking on my bedroom door

"What?" I yell so he can hear

"Can I come in?"

"No" fuck

"I know your not in the shower, come on mate stop wasting water and talk to me" shit, I turn off the water and open the door

"Yeah come in" I'm still stood in the bathroom he comes to the door

"Oh Will, what happened?" He turns my body so he can look over my face

"I got angry... I'm sorry River I couldn't control it.... I had to" I don't cry but I feel terrible, river is one of the most important people in my life and I'm disappointing him.

"Don't apologize it's alright we can get through this okay, now tell me what happened" I nod

"Okay, ...well um I was angry.... Because of uh mum and everything was pissing me off until I found Harri, I hugged him and it help then we kissed and Callum came up to us and started saying stuff, ... I tried to get him to go away but then he touched Harri and that made me mad so I pushed him against the wall and he was calling me a ....a fag and saying bad things about Harri so I choked him a bit, he could still breath and he didn't stop so I let him walk away but he touched Harri and said "well have fun with this then" as if he was a toy or something so J kicked him in the back of the leg and he punched me and we got into a fight.... I'm sorry River I was doing so well" River nods and pulls me into a hug

"I know, we just gotta keep working on it....okay?"

"Yeah, I don't like being like this anymore" River messes up my hair

"It's gonna be okay, I'm gonna go make some tea, want some ?" I shake my head and he leaves the room with my shirt.

"Thanks" I say quietly, I take off the rest of my uniform and actually take a shower. The water at my feet is a light red. Blood is cakes into my finger nails, I get as much of it out as I can but they're still stained red. I wash my hair before getting out and putting on a pair of black trousers with a wide white plaid and a belt with just a plain black shirt tucked in, I'm going to go see Harri. I fix my hair and put on some Cologne

Grab my backpack and slip on a pair of black converse.

I text Harri to say I'm coming.

"Hey I'm just gonna go see Harri, I'll be back before 6"

"Okay stay safe alright" I nod and say goodbye and start walking, I put my earphones in to drown everything else out. It's only about a ten minute walk to his house.

-time jump-

I text Harri that I'm here before knocking on the door. His mum opens it

"Hey dear" she sighs and clicks her tounge as she looks at my face.

"Harri told me" I nod, Harri comes running down the stairs and comes to the door

"Wanna go for a walk?" He nods and smiles, kisses his mum on the cheeks and takes my hand. I turn and look him up and down. He is gorgeous

"You look really nice... Stunning" he smiles, he is wearing a large red and black sweater tucked into a tight skirt and fishnets. He doesn't wear skirts very often but I think he suits them.... He suits everything

"Thanks I did it just for you, and you look very handsome" his face goes red he is so gorgeous. Our hands are still intertwined neither of us have pulled away since we left his house, I peck his cheek and he smiles.

"Why'd you want to come over?" He holds my hand with both of his and leans into my side.

"I wanted to see you" his face goes redder if possible, I live that J can make him blush.

"Are you scared that someone will see us like this?" Harri says quietly. I stop and pull into the park, I sit him on my lap on an old park bench hidden in the trees

"Harri I'm with you and I want everyone to know... I don't care what they think, I'm dating you not them what we do has nothing to do with them and if that makes them angry or disgusted they're not important, okay?" He tucks his head into my neck.

"Okay" this is all I need right now... Him. We sit like this for about half an hour talking about random things.

"Why do you think Callum was angry?" I don't really know to be honest he never gave any sign of being homophobic but I guess we never really talked about it.

"I don't know,that just might be how he is"

"Ok" the sun starts to hide behind the trees.

"I should get you home, I promised I would be back at mine by six" he nods his had and takes my hand and we start walking.

"That was nice" he spins around still holding my hand

"Ahaha your so cute" I laugh lightly we run down the street dipping between light posts and trees laughing. Untill he gets tired and grabs at my arm again. We walk the rest of the way in comfortable silence until we get to his door I wrap my hands around his waist and lean my forehead against his

"You are so beautiful Harri, and sweet and kind and funny I'm so happy with you" he presses his lips to mine, his arms are hung over my shoulders

"Willow you are so handsome and caring,strong,clever and amazing I'm so happy with you" my cheeks go warm and I kiss his forehead

"I'll see you tomorrow"

"Okay byee" he opens the door and goes inside

"Mum! Were you listening!?" I laugh quietly

"I wanted to know how he treats you"

"Well he treats me very well so you can stop spying"

"I can see that" I hear his mother throught the door,I smile so wide I didn't know I could and start running home.
