He was back within two hours, when he entered his apartment he listened to see if you were up, secure in knowing you were still sleeping he walked to the bedroom and stood in the doorway. He saw your eyes were still red an puffy, he sighed the thought of you hurting, of your heartbreaking pained him. The thought of you hurting over that jackass Justin made him mad, what a stupid boy he had the sweetest, loveliest and by far prettiest girl an he threw her away. Harry knows that your heart is cracked twice as bad being betrayed by not just your boyfriend but your supposed best friend. Harry wonders if he should be honest with you when you get up. Should he let you know that this was not the first time they were together, that they have seeing each other almost daily. Not the complete bullshit they were trying to feed you about her boyfriend cheating and her coming to find comfort in you. His amplified hearing had him picking up on their deceit about four or five months ago. He knew her boyfriend found out about her and Justin a couple months back and dumped her then. (Harry always wonders why that guy never reached out to you to let you know what your significant others had been doing together.)
Harry knew this was going to blow up tonight because he made a anonymous call to her job letting her manager know there was a “emergency at her apartment and that she needed to come right away” hanging up before anyone could ask who’s calling. He knows it was kinda a dickhead thing to do and all his friends would have told him to mind his own business, but he couldn’t stand to watch this go on. Y/n worked two jobs to support them and went to college, while that lazy fuck sat back and used her. He would tell her how he was job hunting everyday when in reality he was sleeping with her best friend in her own bed. Harry was tired of them making a fool out you.
He knew a lot more about your and Justin’s life then you did about his. He remembers the first time he metJustin he disliked him from the moment he saw him, so Harry would barely acknowledged his existence, but he did go out of his way to talk to you. When he had learned you had so much on your shoulders but you still made time to have lunch once or twice a week with an older lady who lived in your building. You had found out when she was younger she lost her husband and two children in a horrible car accident so you had made up your mind to have a friendship with her and if anyone asked you, you’d have to say that you think you benefit more from it then she does. He remembers feeling such pride in his little human mate, she had such an amazing soul.
Harry remembers Justin telling you how sad it was you wasted your time with some old lady. Your answer back to him only that “you couldn’t imagine what loosing your husband and children must feel like and how great the sense of loss and loneliness must be, and if you can make her day a little less painful you were going to an only hoping if you were ever in that situation someone would do the same for you.” After hearing that Harry decided to go out of his way to say hello to the woman, help her with her bags etc. and as it turns out he also has a lovely friendship with the woman.
Harry only knows these things from eavesdropping but in his defense, he wasn’t trying to listen, they sound like they are in the same room so it’s not his fault.
Ok so maybe he is a little more in tune with what goes on in your apartment because he feels pulled to you, the overwhelming need to protect you and take care of you which he has had to fight back because he had no right to do these things for you. He knows every vampire has a mate but having a human one is extremely rare, so rare he tried to convince himself in the beginning that it was just some fluke that it would pass because there was no way he wanted to be involved with a human mate, wasn’t happening. A year has passed and he has come to except his fate, still unsure how this would even work between the two of you, and there was always the chance that you could reject him. It really was a complicated and fucked up situation.
As he turned to walk back to his kitchen he knew he had to talk to you about some things when you woke up. For example he knows even though you paid most of the bills Justin had helped with some bills or his parents did, but either way you couldn’t afford to live alone. He knows you will probably fight him on this but he is going to insist you stay with him, so you can save up, and still have time to study, because he doesn’t want you leaving school to work more so you can get a apartment on your own. He also knows living next to your cheating ex and slut of an ex best friend is something you will refuse to do, but Harry thinks the best revenge is living a better life then the one you had with Justin and he knows he can give that to you.
He thinks he’ll only tackle these two topics today he knows you aren’t ready for him to drop the whole “ I’m a vampire and your my mate” speech right now. He knows right now you need a friend more then anything else and he is going to best friend you could ever wish for. There would be plenty of time to brooch that subject, he just really hopes you will agree to stay with and he is prepared to argue his point. He hears soft footsteps coming down the hall.
Here we go he thinks, he has a feeling this is going to be a long day. If he really thinks about it what he is suggesting you do is rather ridiculous.
