Harry's POV

It's one of those moments you can't describe. I felt like I was on a high. I finally got Anna, we were going to have this amazing date, and I could not picture a single thing getting in the way of us. And then Will happened.

"Will tried to rape me..."

The words stay ringing in my ears. I felt my entire world crumble right in front of me but there was nothing I could do to stop it. I could feel myself boiling with anger yet I felt like breaking down.

"Just now? When you were at the cafe?"
"Yes..."
"That sick little bastard, he's gonna-"
"Harry, don't."
"Anna are you kidding? Did you not just hear yourself? He tried to rape  you."
"He was drunk."
"Don't try to defend him. You know what he did and he better know what he did. Will will pay."
"Harry, please just don't"
"Don't what Anna? He deserves to be punished. I might as well just go kick his ass right now."

I start to stand up and head towards the door when I feel a hand pull on my arm.

"Harry! Stop! I can't deal with this shit right now! I don't want you to beat him up, I don't want to talk about what happened, and I don't want to see him ever again. Can we please just forget this ever happened?"
"Anna-"
"Harry..." She said in almost a whisper. "I'm going home. I'll see you tomorrow."

She brushed passed me and slipped out the door.

My mind could not even wrap around what just happened, let alone what Anna had told me. Even just the fact that she doesn't want to admit what had happened. Will is a bad guy, I always fucking knew it. He was going to pay, I don't care what Anna thought, he deserves to pay.


Anna's POV

My mind is in a loop right now. Just spinning in non-stop circles. Harry was just as much help as I pictured him to be. He calmed me down, got me back into reality, and then I realized, Will was just doing this because he wanted attention. He is trying to wiggle his way back into my life somehow. If I gave him that attention by, let's say, going to court, it's going to do nothing but satisfy him more. 

I just had to go home, see Hannah, and forget this whole thing happened, because the truth of the matter is, nothing really happened. It's just what almost happened I suppose.

I open my front door to see Jane sitting on my couch watching TV with Hannah. My heart melts when Hannah turns to see I'm home.

"Mommy! You're back!" Hannah exclaims. She runs and jumps into my arms.
"Mommy's right here, don't you worry."

I pick her up and walk over to Jane.

"Thank you so much, again." I say.
"Anytime, really it's no problem. I really should be heading home though, Zach's waiting for me."
"Whoa... who's Zach? Is that a new boyfriend?" I say with a joking gasp.
"Maybe... well, I guess. We haven't really put a label on it yet, I won't bore you with details. Anyways we've been seeing each other for like two months now, things are getting pretty serious."
"Well then, I won't keep you any longer." I kiss Jane on the cheek. "See you later, and don't stay up too late!"
"We'll see!" She exclaims on her way out the door.

I put Hannah into her pajamas and kiss her good night. I love seeing her tiny face, so adorable.

I walk back into the living room and plop down on the couch. I pull my phone out of my pocket to see a text from Will.

We need to get rid of the toxicity in our lives. We can't hold onto our past forever. I need to let him go, for the better of both of us.
