Clash

The next day was a busy one, as we were moving my stuff into storage and my clothes and things I couldn’t live without, there were moved into the house and to be honest this was quite a house. It had three floors, a huge back garden and it was all modern, which wasn’t my first choice but it came in handy for now.

When I walked into the house and was stunned by it’s cleanness and the fact that I walked into a lot of people. I shied away from it and bumped into Harry who held me steady. “They work for me Anna, don’t worry.” I nodded and started walking again and my mouth fell open at the sight of so many computers and weapons on the table, it looked like a proper gang, how the the world did Harry keep this a secret from me?

I touched one of the weapons on the table and I immediately got stopped by one of the guys. He looked at me as if I had lost my mind and I gave him a threatening look, which made Harry chuckle. “Guys, meet Anna! Anna meet the guys.” The guy who was holding my hand, immediately dropped my hand, as if he was burned. “I’m sorry, I didn’t know who you were.” He quickly apologized and I just gave him a small smile.

It was weird to be feared by someone, especially when you are a nice person at heart. “So this really is headquarters.” I mumbled more to myself but Harry picked it up.

“We haven’t had the time to get everything at the right place, so for now it will be here in the open, I’m sorry.” I shrugged because I honestly didn’t care. “Whatever.” I walked into the kitchen to see if we had enough to eat and to my surprise everything was really empty, there was no way I could live here and not having enough to eat or drink.

Harry was still at my side, taking my reaction to everything and the moment I wanted to say something about the food, he dragged me upstairs. This was a real mansion, so it was a big house, with a lot of rooms and it took us some time to get to where Harry was taking me and it was actually making me curious because he seemed to be really enthusiast about it.
“Anna.” He turned around and was looking at me with a beautiful smile, which showed his dimples, this was a rare sight and I was almost startled by it. “Harry.” I said back, trying my best to not spoil his fun.

“Close your eyes, please.” I did what he asked and as I heard him open a door I couldn’t help but smile because someone had been going through my Disney movies and decided that it would be awesome to do in real life and it definitely took my mind of what was ahead. Harry grabbed my hands and pulled me forwards and all the time he kept mumbling that I had to keep my eyes shut.

We stopped in the middle of the room, at least that’s what it felt like to me and I almost expected Harry to pull open the curtains but that would be really cheesy and so out of his character.

“Open your eyes Anna.” I heard Harry say and I didn’t hesitate and what I saw, stunned me because in front of me stood the most beautiful black piano I had ever seen in my life. The piano stood by the window, which allowed me to look outside over the landscape and it was an amazing view. I walked towards the piano and touched it. “Harry you shouldn’t have.” I said a bit breathless.

“I know but since I’m the one who ruined your life, I had to do something to make up for it.” He shrugged as if it was nothing but to me this meant everything. I turned towards him and hugged him, he didn’t expect this at all and was stunned at first but eventually he wrapped his arms around me and hugged me back. “I love you Harry.” This I mumbled to his chest but he did hear me, as he hugged me tighter.

“Ahum, Harry?” Liam’s voice came from the door opening. We broke apart and I could feel the annoyance that was radiating from Harry but he put on a mask and smiled at his friend. “Yes?” he asked, whilst holding my hand firmly in his.

“We need you two downstairs, something happened.” I sighed at this because this probably wasn’t a fun thing. We followed Liam to the living room and what I saw there made me look at Harry in horror because Olly was lying on the couch layered in blood. I know it was my job to fix the wounded but this was a bit much but I could feel everyone’s eyes fixed on me and on what I was going to do next. I felt nauseas all of a sudden, which was weird as I normally hard an iron stomach.

“Anna?” Harry asked, as he also was waiting for me to take some actions. I took a deep breath and walked over to Olly slowly and I looked around to see if someone would help me but no one did anything.

“Care to enlighten us about what happened?” Harry demanded as I checked Olly out and he wasn’t looking good that was for sure. I wasn’t sure if I could help him but I had to try right. “Niall, I need the emergency kit, Michael get me bottled water and towels and Liam I need something to sterilise everything.” I ordered and they moved immediately, I could feel Harry watching me but he didn’t come any closer because this was not the first time I had to do something like this.

With Zayn I had failed but I couldn’t permit this with Olly and I had to safe him no matter what and if this wasn’t going to work he had to be taken to the hospital. “Harry sir, he was attacked when he walked home from work.” One of the guys told him and that made me angry because Olly had never done something to be treated like this.

“Was it Bradley himself?” I heard Harry ask and I waited for the answer, when I realized that I had someone’s life in my hand. I quickly focussed back on a bleeding Olly and was thankful that everyone emerged back into the room and gave me everything I asked for.

“Alright Liam, can you help me put him on his side because I need to stop the bleeding in his neck first.” I asked him and Liam didn’t say a thing but he did exactly what I asked of him. I grabbed the alcohol that Liam had grabbed and poured some on his neck, which made him hiss in shock, he wanted to move but Liam held him firmly in his place. As soon as the wound in his neck was clean I began with stitching him. I was happy that it wasn’t his vein because that would be disastrous.

The moment I was done stitching his neck I couldn’t help but feel proud of my work because it looked like it was done by a proper doctor but I didn’t have a lot of time to think about it because I wasn’t done yet. I moved to his stomach as Liam put him on his back again, I had to cut open his shirt because the blood stuck to it and I couldn’t risk on hurting him further.
I cut open his shirt and started to clean the wound in his stomach. I recognized it as a bullet wound and I had to know if it was still in there so Liam made Olly sit up carefully and I was so thankful that the bullet did flew out on the other side because this meant I didn’t have to do a lot. I just had to stitch him up for now but he had to go to the hospital to see if there was internal bleeding but for now I had to stop the bleeding we could see.

My hands were covered in his blood by now and I felt exhausted for some reason. I had to shake it of though and after a deep sigh I continued helping Olly. I wasn’t sure how many wounds I had fixed but it were a lot and when I was finally done with the last one, I felt Harry’s hand on my shoulder, he gently squeezed it to let me know he was here with me.
I got up from my position and made sure everything was still looking good and when I was satisfied I walked into the kitchen to get something to drink. I grabbed a bottle of water and downed it in a few seconds and when I had done that I turned around to a waiting Harry.

“I need a shower.” I said to him and he nodded and he took me upstairs and opened a door to another room. I would normally look around but I just wanted to get that blood of off me. He opened another door and behind it was a really big bathroom. There was a bathtub in the middle of the room and behind it was a luxurious shower. There were two sinks, one for me and one for him I guessed and I was happy that Harry had grabbed me clean clothes.

I turned and gave him a small smile and asked him to leave me alone, which he did. He walked towards me and kissed me on my forehead and left the room. I quickly undressed myself and I just let the clothes fall on the ground. I stepped into the shower and just let the warm water wash over me.

I really hoped that Olly was going to be okay but he really did need to go to the hospital just to make sure I hadn’t missed anything and to see if there weren’t internal bleedings. I know I did earn the respect of everyone in that room after they saw me work, which was a good thing I guess. I didn’t feel proud of myself though because I wasn’t suppose to be in these kind of situations.

The way everything collapsed every single time when something good happened, made me sick and made me want to hide in a closet and never come out but I know there was no way I could do this because that meant that Bradley would live, which wasn’t an option as he would hurt a lot more people. He had to die, there was just no other option.
