Erin's POV
                          
I made my way to the park where Lisa and I were meeting, I was wearing light skinny jeans with the ankles rolled up a little, white low converse and a black Ramones t shirt which was Harry's, my hair was in away fishtail plait which was pulled to the side and I had minimal make up on, just my usual, light foundation and mascara. Harry had called me shortly before, telling me he was getting ready for his audition and that he would call me again tomorrow because if he got through him, his mum and her new partner Robin would be going out for a celebratory dinner an if he didn't get through then he would call, but he would get through and I know that.
                          
I got to the park and saw Lisa standing there waiting for me, "Hey girl" she said smiling, "Hey Lis" I said, "How have you been holding up?" she asked, "Good but still shitting myself in case Connor gets me again, I don't know why I'm worrying about it, it's been almost three months" I said chuckling, "Yeah I know, but it's something that you will probably always think of" she said, "But don't worry, if you want you can stay with me" she offered, "Thank you Lisa" I said smiling, "Come on let's go shopping" she said as we headed for the small shopping centre that was near the park.
                          
"Do you ever get the feeling you're being watched?" I asked out of the blue, "Not much, no, but right now I do" Lisa said looking around, I did the same but didn't see anything suspicious, I shrugged it off, thinking it was nothing, and continued with my shopping trip, ignoring the bad feeling in the pit of my stomach, it was probably nerves for Harry, after all it was his audition today, that's what it would be.
                          
..."I have to go to the bathroom, i'll meet you back here in a couple of minutes okay" I said, "Sure, I'm going to just go into Forever 21 so meet me in there" Lisa said, I nodded, I hadn't bought much really, I bought a few t shirts a pair of jeans and a pair of boots from TopShop and then I bought black Hollister sweats, I had my bags in my hand and I made my way to the bathroom, I did my business, washed my hands and made my way towards forever 21 but I was grabbed by strong hands.

                          
Lisa's POV 
                          
I had been in forever 21 for about ten minutes waiting on Erin, she was taking forever to do a pee! Maybe she wasn't feeling well, or she was sick, or what if Connor had-- no Lisa Connor wasn't going to take her!
                          
I decided to go to the bathroom to check on her, but when I got there, she was nowhere to be seen, there was a few cubicles closed over, "Erin!" I called out, nothing, "Erin are you in here?" I called out, nothing, I started to panic, what if Connor had got her, he would get away with it, her boyfriend wasn't here to save her, he brother was god knows where and I didn't know where she was.
                          
I decided to check forever 21 in case she had wandered there without me noticing, I couldn't find her, I called her and Connor answered, my assumptions were correct. And I didn't have Harry's number to call him, plus he was at his audition for X factor, I didn't know her brother and I wasn't going to tell her parents, I decided I had to save her myself, but first, I asked Connor a serious question, "Connor, why are you fucking with people, Erin hasn't done anything to you, just let her go" I said, "Its called revenge on Harry" he spat into the phone, "Then why harass Erin, a girl you once said you loved" I said, knowing he didn't love her, he only loves himself, "Because I fucking hate Harry Styles and I will do anything to make him feel pain, he is an asshole and a dick" he spat, "You're no better than him" I spat before hanging up and pacing back and forth the shopping centre, what should I do? Me, a petite little 16 year old girl who can barely open a sealed bottle of coke, how am I supposed to save Erin from the wrath of Connor? I suppose I gotta have faith.

                          
Erin's POV
                          
I had been slapped, punched an kicked, I had been given a good beaten and all I wanted was for Harry to hug me and tell me he was going to sort it, but that wasn't going to happen, Harry was in Manchester auditioning for X factor, meanwhile I was lying on the floor clutching my badly bruised and beaten stomach, with Connor saying terrible things into my ear. "Where's that no use boyfriend of yours now?" he spat, "He's off, he's left you Erin, he's using you just to get back at me, he's using you Erin! Just like I did except its to get back at me, that's all guys like me do, they use girls and make them fall in love and then leave them" he said, hatred spilling from every single word he said, I gulped, what if he was right---no Erin! Harry loves you, he told you, Connors trying to get into your head!
