In This Life

Chapter 10

"We best get you back home" said Edward.

"Yeah" said Harry, Edward wanted nothing more to get Harry to confess something was wrong when he felt Harry's heartbeat accelerate beyond control.

"Are you ok?" asked Esme concerned.

Harry grinned half heartedly "I'm fine thanks so much for having me over, the soup was delicious."

"You're more than welcome Harry" beamed Esme, thinking he was a very polite boy, Edward smirked at his mother's thinking until he realised why Harry was probably so polite no doubt it was beaten into him.

"Ah, your still here I'm sorry I had to do some overtime" said Carlisle coming into the room, calmly as you please. Harry blinked, he had come from nowhere, was he a wizard like him? He knew he had appeared out of one place to another before the accident. He had best not ask him just in case he was just very bad at paying attention.

"Hello sir," said Harry awkwardly.

"It's Carlisle how many times?" chastised Carlisle "I have your bank details sorted out; I put our address as the address is that alright?"

"Sure, that way he defiantly wont find out" said Harry, forgetting where he was, he saw Edward giving him a curious look before going red in the face. Oops he had to watch what he was doing he didn't want his new friends to learn just how weak and freakish he was.

"Good, your card will come within a week" said Carlisle "I went to see your family, told them that I was going to be checking on you every two days, to make sure everything was going alright"

"Why would you do that?!" blinked Harry frowning.

"Well you are still quite hurt, I'm just wanting to make sure you are truly healed and it's not a flux" said Carlisle lying smoothly as you please.

"Ok" agreed Harry, perhaps his uncle would leave him alone, that was until Carlisle stopped coming. Harry knew it wouldn't last long Carlisle would get bored or not have the time to come in the end. Then his life would go back to the way it was before the accident. Thing was he didn't want that to happen, he liked his life right now life sucked sometimes.

"I'm just taking him home," said Edward, Jasper was going to be back soon. After being with all those humans all day he liked to come home with no fear. Edward couldn't deny him that, so Harry had to go now.

"Did you speak to my Uncle?" asked Harry. As Edward led him towards the car, craning his neck to see Carlisle.

"Yes he was there" said Carlisle. With that Harry and Edward continued towards the car, Harry and Edward both deep in thought both for different reasons. Harry is worrying about his uncle and Edward worrying about Harry's safety.

Edward didn't go as fast as last time, if it was to buy himself and Harry some time or if he didn't feel like it he didn't know. Eventually they drew up at his home, Harry couldn't remember ever telling Edward where he lived, a mistake on their part.

"Come on then, I'll help you in" said Edward, wishing he could just convince Harry to stay at his home. Then he would find out they were Vampire's Harry would no doubt want to stay with his Uncle than blood sucking Vampire's. Or this was what Edward thought would happen.

"I'll see you at school when you come back" said Edward, "Or I could come with Alice and see you in a few days"

Harry grinned "I'll be at school tomorrow"

"Ok then, I shall come for you," said Edward.

"But there wont be enough room, you all usually get the Volvo" protested Harry.

"Don't worry about that, Rosalie has been dying for a reason to use her convertible for ages and show off" smirked Edward.

"Only if she's alright with it" said Harry admitting defeat. He wouldn't mind getting a lift to school; it would make it a little better for him.

"She will be" said Edward, his Aunt was out and helping him in, Edward followed them in. Harry's heard was thumping louder than ever looking towards Edward as if he thought his uncle would attack him.

"Thank you for bringing him back" said Hilda, Harry's aunt and Edward smiled softly at her knowing she meant it. He had to stop himself growling at the thoughts going through Isaac's head.

"My father will probably see you tomorrow night, I will be here tomorrow morning to take you to school, I'll see you tomorrow alright?" asked Edward, ignoring the snort coming from the man on the couch who didn't have an ounce of manners in him.

"Ok Edward, I'll see you tomorrow" said Harry, feeling knackered suddenly. Was this how he was going to be until he got better? He hoped not otherwise he wouldn't be able to get through one day at school never mind a week.

"Bye" said Edward, Hilda and Harry said bye and Hilda walked him to the door, she said thank you once again before she shut the door.

"Go to you're bed we don't want to see your face" said Hilda, a warning look in her eye, she knew when Isaac was about to start off. Harry nodded and started struggling his way up the stairs, not just physically exhausted but his magical core was depleted too. Stopping himself from dying of his internal injuries then getting better of course. He wasn't fully better either just out of danger the pain was horrible as well.

Harry was barely on his bed before he couldn't keep his eyes open any longer. He wasn't aware of Edward watching him that night, covering him up properly because he hadn't gotten into his bed properly. Eventually he had to go at six o'clock in the morning when the idiots alarm went off.

Next thing Harry knew was his Aunt urging him awake, "You're going to be late for school, come on I'll help you get dressed" she said.

"Just give me a pair of shorts please, and big long socks please" said Harry.

She did as she was told, giving him a pair of denim shorts and long blue socks. The socks went right over the cast and up his leg for that he was thankful. The other one did the same, his legs were that skinny it was no wonder they were going so far. He put on a white shirt it was just a cheep one but he liked it none the less.

He put his jacket in his bag along with the work he would need, before making his way down the stairs. "Sit down, for a few minutes your friend isn't here anyway" she said. She passed him some breakfast, full English as well.

"What is this in aid off?" asked Harry surprised, eating it gratefully.

"He left early that's all," said Hilda, she usually couldn't give him anything but a sausage at breakfast. Today she managed to give him a plate full, she had one herself, Harry didn't mange to eat it all

"Now about the work, I managed to get one for you at the weekend eight until three. It's in the Library the poor woman isn't what she used to be and would like some help" said Hilda "It would keep you away from him and let you get some money to yourself, with the man paying for your medical expenses he doesn't care any longer about you getting a job."

"I want it" said Harry immediately, "Can you let them know for me?"

"Of course, I shall pop in later on I'm heading that way for shopping soon so yes I will" said Hilda.

"Thanks" grinned Harry, just then a car tooted. Harry excused himself and made his way outside. Edward raised an eyebrow at Harry's socks but didn't bother too much about it. He actually thought Harry looked rather nice with what he was wearing he didn't like to admit it but he looked like Alice, small feminine and cat like or would have been if it wasn't for the plaster cast he had on.

Edward once again helped Harry into the car, before getting in at his own side and driving away. "Did you have a good night last night?" asked Edward.

"Yep, I actually slept all night, it doesn't happen very often" said Harry.

"Good," said Edward, he had no doubt it was because the young man was completely exhausted.

"How about you?" asked Harry.

"Yes I had a good night" said Edward keeping his smirk in; as far as he was concerned it was a very good night.

"You need to learn to slow down" said Harry rolling his eyes.

"Why?" asked Edward.

"Well we are already here?!" said Harry "How long until Classes start?"

"Five minutes" said Edward frowning.

"Oh" said Harry he hadn't realised it was so late. "You should have dropped me off around the corner"

"Why?" asked Edward frowning.

"Well Alice said you keep to yourselves I don't want to ruin your reputation" said Harry.

Edward snorted "I don't care what they think"

"Ok then" said Harry "Whatever you want" shrugging his shoulders.

Harry's first class was maths, which he was good at but he began getting agitated. He was tiring very easily, by break time Harry couldn't even get out his seat to go to his next class. He was determined to get to it, his bloody bag was heavy and he hadn't brought them for nothing. It was his favourite subject too so he wanted to get there on time.

By lunch time Harry wanted nothing more than to go home, his bones were aching everywhere. Harry skipped the lunch hall, the food was making him sick he went and sat down on a patch of grass. He wasn't cold, but it wasn't exactly nice either.

"Where is he Alice? I looked for him at break but couldn't see him anywhere" said Edward, no one was thinking about him and no one had seen him either.

"He's outside" said Alice grinning.
