Disclaimer: I do not own HOA or any of the characters.

I honestly haven't updated in SO LONG! but I was just busy with religion and other things of the sort. I've finally updated Harmony and well that's all I have to say. This is probably not going to be too much of a chapter that relates to the storyline, this is mostly gonna be a Peddie chapter. I need a dose of Peddie before I explode.

LINEBREAK

Make It Stop

Both girls' eyes snapped open.

Patricia's eyes scanned the room in terror, finally relaxing when she saw Eddie next to her, holding her hand.

He leaned against her, his head resting just over her heart. She realized that he was asleep by now, but she knew that her heart would end up waking him. Though she hadn't really made any noise waking up. She wasn't even sure if she was breathing.

She obviously knew she was, it was just her heart hammering in her chest, and the pain she had finally escaped, taking its toll on her.

"Patricia?" she heard Eddie's voice question sleepily. She squeezed his hand.

"I'm okay." she whispered. She can feel Eddie take her into a soft hug, and she feels like she can breathe again. She reciprocates as best as she can. He pulls back slightly, placing a sweet kiss on her lips. A smile graces Patricia's features, despite everything that's happened in the past few minutes.

She takes a gulp of air, and leaned back into her hospital bed.

"Patricia, what exactly happened?" Eddie asked softly. He was leaning against her again, looking up at her. It was when he asked his question, her eyes flickered over to the bubbly blonde she was sharing the hospital room with.

"Nothing." she mumbled. Eddie shot up instantly.

"Nothing Patricia?! You're in the hospital! You were stabbed, you lost so much blood, and than I come in here only to find you screaming unconciously! Do you know how much that killed me! You were dying in front of my eyes! I wouldn't call that nothing!" Eddie argued, whisper-yelling.

"Eddie." she whispered wearily. "Calm down, please." she says as she feels her heart beat start to go insane again. The moments flickered through her mind. From her best friend stabbing her to her great great something trying to kill her.

He sighed. "Patricia, please just tell me. I need to know. I love you." he explains softly, leaning closer.

She takes a deep breath. "I love you too." that sentence couldn't be more true. "I'll tell you, I just - it's just a little scary to think about."

"I'm right here Patricia. You can go ahead and yack." he jokes, lightening the mood. But as much as she wanted it to, it didn't work. Not today.

She looked up at the ceiling.

"She tried to kill me."

Eddie's heart almost stopped. "What?!" Their eyes locked.

"Amber." Patricia gulped, the truth suddenly hitting her. Tears glazed over her eyes. "She tried to - she tried to kill me." her heart hurt. Her best friend had tried to murder her.

Eddie's fists clenched. Honestly, if the person who tried to kill her was a guy, he would have murdered that jerk before he could even begin to scream for help.

"Amber?!" his whole body went tense. Patricia was his everything, and now he learns one of his good friends, her best friend, one that seemed so innocent, had tried to kill her. Patricia nodded, taking his hand again.

His body began to calm at her touch. God what this girl could do to her. He let out a breath.

"But it wasn't really Amber. Not exactly. It was her, Eddie. She took control over Amber and after Amber well, stabbed me, she lost power over her, that's why Amber fainted. But once again there's more."

Eddie nodded, taking in the information. It brought back those terrible memories of the things he did to Patricia. It made his heart hurt to even think about doing that to her.

She continued. "Cleopatra took us into a weird dreamworld where she tortured us until we eventually woke up. You could hear me screaming through my dreams." she whispered.

It took Eddie a while to process everything. He knew for sure she was sugarcoating it. The pain had been much more extreme. Her blood curdling screams rang through his head.

He took a deep breath. "I just want it to stop Eddie." Patricia mumbled, tears glazing over her eyes. Eddie's heart broke at the sight of her.

He wrapped his arms around her, kissing away the tears and then quickly placing a kiss on her lips.

"I'm going to make it stop. It's gonna be okay, Patricia. You're gonna be okay."
