Hanging up my cellphone I stand up and immediately need liquor to dissolve the aching pain in my heart. I head to the cabinet and realize I drank this place dry.

"Fuck." I sigh.

I make my way towards the basement door remembering the expensive wine that we keep down there.

Wines some pussy shit, but it will have to do.

I drag my feet down the stairs and sluggishly carry my feet to the far corner. Louis must have left the lights on down here.

I go to a near light switch and flick it off.

"Huh?"

I flip it off again and the lights still stayed on.

One more time and I've come to conclusion that this light switch isn't for this room.

"Hhhhh" I let out a deep sigh.

Just as I dragged my feet away I turned around one last time. I felt like something was dragging me back to that switch. As I turned I see the closet behind me. Nothing's in there besides a few metal pipes and vents.

I just need to know why this god damn light switch is here.

I open the door and what I see is nothing I have ever expected.

"Rion?"

The wine bottle falls from my hands making a crashing sound to the the floor.

"Ha- Harry"

"What are you doing in- nevermind come here." I cry kneeling down holding her in my arms.

I feel her body tremble as she holds a death grip on to me proving she isn't letting go.

"Baby.." I gasp when I take a look at her appearance.

Her eyes are sunken in, she's looks ten pounds lighter, her hair is a matted mess and her cheeks are hollow.

"What happened to you?" I regret questioning as Rion begins to cry hard.

"I thought you'd never find me." She says between sobs.

"Baby I never stopped looking, I thought you left me."

I'm still confused as to why she's in here. I look around taking in the small room and notice her leg chained up to the pipe.

Her body is marked with gashes and burn marks. There's black and blue painted all over her arms, legs, chest, everything. She looks as if she was thrown down ten flights of stairs and fell into a fire.

"Who? How?" My lips quiver at my stupidity. She was here the whole time... Right under this roof.

"It- it was this women.. From modest, she was gonna kill me she was saying these horrid things and-"

"Sh sh baby lets get you out of here."

I manage to get the cuff off of her leg being careful not to tear anymore of her rough skin. I cradle her in my arms as I easily carry her up the stairs and into my bedroom.

I lay her delicate body down on my bed and her emotionless blank face stares at the ceiling.

"Let me draw you a bath." I whisper and go to kiss her cheek. No emotion on her face as my lips touch her cold skin.

This worries me. After this we go to the police then doctors, or doctors then police. Fuck I don't know what to do, do I skip the bath and take her to the doctors?

No, what she needs right now is to relax and get cleaned up. Maybe that will make her feel better. I begin to walk out of the room but feel this tight grip around my arm causing me to halt.

"Please." She cries. "Don't leave me."

"Hey hey hey." I bend down onto my knees swiping her hair out of her face. "Never." I plant a kiss on her dry and cracked lips. But I could care less. She needed this, hell I needed this. That little contact of her lips on mine ignited something inside me and hope it does for her as well.

I exit my room and enter my bathroom that connects from my room. I turn the tub on and put my favorite bath bomb in and head back to Rion.

"Ready?"

She doesn't respond so I begin to undress her, first I take off her discolored tank top that was once white. Then Her black underwear and tan bra.

I lift her body up and enter the bathroom and carefully place her body in the tub.

She hisses as the warm water touches her body but soon sighs in relief I'm sure.

"I'll leave you be."

"No." She begs. "Please.." She scoots forward signaling me to step in the tub.

"Okay- uh yeah okay." I undress in front of Rion, her eyes never leaving my body.

I slide in the tub behind her causing water to splash over the sides, which I could care less about..

Ry adjusts her body against mine and lays back, her head rests gently on my chest and my hands wrap around her and rest on her stomach.

"What h-"

"Harry please. I love you so fucking much, but please let me relax."

Those three words. Those three words that I haven't heard fall from her lips in almost one month. Didn't think it would affect me so much. But those three words has me obeying her request.

Isqueeze her tighter so she knows I'm never letting go and I'm not going anywhere.

"I love you too." I whisper planting a swift kiss on the top of her head. "So much baby"
