I sat up as Noah walked over to the elevator to let the delivery man up, standing to walk over to the wall where I left my bag, flipping open one side pocket carrying my phone, I pulled it out, speed dialing Harper. I needed to call her and let her know I knew she was in Italy and that she needed to get here to see me as soon as possible. I was worried about her. I put the phone to my ear and waited for her to answer.

I ran down the alley way, coming to a stop when I heard my phone going off. I sighed slightly, reaching in to my pocket and pulling out my phone. My sister’s name was flashing at me, and I knew I had to answer, either she was calling because she finally found out I was here or Neil told her I ran off. I was a big girl. I didn’t need my mommy taking care of me. Well, my ‘new’ mommy. I put the phone to my ear, breathing heavily. “Hello, Hunter. What can I do for you?” I let out a heavy breath, leaning against the alley way wall.

I heard Harper's voice and I couldn't be more releived. But when I heard her deep breathing I was immediately concerned. What happened. What had taken her breath away like this. She sounded like she was running from some one. "Honey, what's wrong? Are you alright? Where are you? Where's Neil?" I hoped they hadn't gotten sepparated and she was lost. Noah had promised me that she'd be ok with Neil and I trusted Noah, so I knew they had to have gotten sepparated some how.

I listened to my sister's endless line of questioning before tossing out. "I'm fine, chill!" I took a deep breath, sliding down the wall on my butt, and leaning on my elbows. "Neil isn't here. I ditched my babysitter, thank you." I looked around. "I'm just walking around. Checking things out, I'm fine." I was far from fine, but if she knew that she'd never let me leave the house again.

I sat down on the bed, crossing my legs, shaking my head. She should be here with me, not wandering around a city she didn't even know without anyone who did know the city. I didn't know what district she was in, if she knew how to get back home from where she was. I didn't know where she was or if she was ok or not. I shook my head. "Harper, I didn't even know you'd gotten into the country yet. Neil wouldn't have been the first choice to come pick you up, you have to know that." I wanted to have been there for her. I should be there now her now, but I had no idea where she was. "Where are you, sweetie?"

I looked for a sign, not that I could read it anyways, but I looked. "I don't know, Hunter." I sighed, rubbing my face. "It's ok. I didn't call you because I'm a big girl. I can take care of myself. Ill find my own way home, Hunter. I love you." I stood up, dusting my jeans off and walking back up the alley toward the street.

She was pushing me away and I didn't like it. I didn't like that she thought I was smothering her. Maybe I was, but both of our parents were now gone. All we had left was each other. I wasn't about to let anything happen to her when I knew there was something I could do. I wanted to be her best friend, I wanted to be the big sister I should have always been and have always wanted to be. Sure, she wasn't my mom's daughter, but she was my sister and I loved her never the less. "Harper, I just think it's not good for either of us to be alone right now. What with dad and all... I love you and I think that we need each other now more than ever."

I don't know why her bringing up daddy made me so angry, but it did and I had to take a deep breath just to stop myself from screaming. "Hunter," I grunted out, coming to the main street. "Ill be by Noah's studio later. Ill ask around and find my way there. Now, please, I need my space." I took a deep breath, nodding to the man standing by the doors to a bar.

I bit my lip, knowing now that I had now pissed her off. I hadn't meant to. I just thought that we should be together because we weren't with each other when Dad died. Dad and I had always had our problems, because I had still blamed him for Mom dying and I probably always would. I'd never let Harper know that because she loved Dad and I would never hurt her like that. "Ok. Please be safe. If you need me, please call me, sweetie. I love you!"

"I love you too. Ill be there later. I promise." I hung up the phone, pushing it in my pocket and walking forward.
