She didn't know where she was heading but her feet accidentally stepped on a slippery ground, causing her to fall down and roll down the hills.

Her white dress all run up to her belly and dirty. Her hair all frazzled up. She looked down to her knees and it was bleeding and painful. She cried.

She tried to get up but as her hand traveled around for support, she felt slimy cold skin touching from her fingertips. Her eyes widened.

Slowly she turned her head to her right, only to see those horrifying scenes. She screamed.

.

Harry wiped her face clean, but she was still silent. She can't get rid of that scene out of her mind; it was a little boy naked, covered with dirt and blood. His stomach was sliced open with guts pouring out. His eyes were rolling up and it looked like he was staring at her; innocent Belle.

She was numb and shocked.

"You're all dirty now, Belle," he sighed. "Would you mind if I clean you?"

Belle stayed silent, her face empty and pale. She didn't know what to think and her mind was all cloudy.

He sighed once again and carried her into his arms.

He dragged her to the bathroom, stripping her carefully then placing her softly in the bathtub. "Belle," he caressed her soft cheeks and watching the little pimples slowly forming on her face from the cause of puberty.

He didn't dare to watch what's below the neck of hers, he was scared he'd do something. Slowly, he took the faucet and let the running water slid down her body, washing the dirt of her pale skin.

"I'm going to leave you to clean yourself," he stood up but he felt a tug by his pants.

"Stay," she softly murmured. She rose her head to him. "I'm scared, please stay," her eyes watery and full of fear.

Harry was heartbroken by the scene. He crouched next to her, then out of a sudden, kissing her forehead. "I can't," he sighed.

"Why not?"

"Well, darling," He looked down to his feet, he didn't dare to see her bare figure, he was too scared to ruin the precious moment, those valuable minute he cherished longingly. He breathed heavily, blinking rapidly. "I wouldn't want to hurt you,"
