*Eliana's P.O.V*

When I wake up, I am no longer surrounded by the warmth of Harry's body, nor his long hand is curled around me. My head pounds and my legs feel like jelly, I breathe in deeply and force my limb body out the bed. I take a shower to wake my muscles and go into the kitchen to make some coffee. I can only assume Harry left to his hotel and I have shift to cover.

I check my phone, thirty minutes until I have to leave my apartment and start the day at the bar. Couple of notifications catch my interest, but it soon drops to the bottom of the ocean when I notice Richard's text message.

From: Richard
Few more days.

I gulp and lock my phone, then put it in the pocket. Luckily, everything is going how I intended, he just wants to intimidate me. I grab all my things and say goodbye to my cat that is chilling somewhere.

Streets of Vienna are still empty but cold, so I grip on my jacket a bit tighter hoping I will get the warmth I look for. While I walk, images of Harry pop in to occupy each milimeter of my brain, thick feeling of guilt starts to rise and spread over the memories I try to relive. Few more days. Few more days until I have to shatter his belief, proving him I am exactly what he ran from.

But maybe I can somehow prevent that from happening? Or at least disappear from his sight and life before the truth unravels, after I get what I want, of course.

I reach the glass doors of my bar and get the keys out to unlock it and finally warm up a little bit. Once I am inside, I loudly groan, my voice echoing through the empty space. I start to turn the lights first in the booths, then head straight to the bar to get the machine going and everything that needs to be warmed up. I love to work in the mornings, because I just have to start everything up and when the shift comes to an end, I count the money, leave the starting deposit and I am ready to go home.

I go in the back office to bring out some new decorations I picked out for the ambience of the place. I clumsily stumble in the front with two boxes and I go around the tables to put them on top. First goes the red, round mat, which is filled with triangle holes at the edges, then I put the round cup made of glass for the candle, but I have something else in mind to fill it up with.

I continue with decorating the tables, while silently humming some unknown melody to myself. Once I am done, I quickly go in the back to leave this empty box in the storage room to wait for its next use. I hop back in front and make myself a cup of coffee and check the time, only ten minutes until I have to open. I decide to go outside and sweep the concrete floor to make it look a bit more decent.

When everything is done, I swiftly walk back inside and shiver away the coldness that consumed me. While walking towards the bar, where my coffee is emits winding smoke and invites me to chug it down, I hear the bell ringing, alerting me that costumers already started my work day. Without even turning to see who it is, I greet the person with joyfull tone, reach my bar and turn around.

I freeze on the spot, ugly feelings numb my ability to move or speak. Flashing memories in front of my eyes seem so violent as they still continue to roll their painful film of my past. Person in front of me smirks and lets his body literally slam on the high bar chair. My lungs ache for some air, my throat dries up, it almost feels like thousands of knives dig into the walls of my thoat when I finally inhale sharply.

Eyes deep as mine with black bags under, dry face deprived of any emotions, cracked lips that don't succeed to cover yellow, rotten teeth behind them. It's been so long since I last saw him. I tried so hard to forget everything he did.

"D-dad?"

*HARRY'S P.O.W*

It's three a.m when I arrive back in my hotel room. My legs are sloppy and my back hurt, I knew it wasn't a good idea to show off with the shower just yet. I smile to myself when her sound of pleasure scream replays in my ear, almost as if she is next to me.

I take my clothes off and carefully lay in my bed, I am so scared I will not be able to get up in the morning. This back situation is getting out of hand and I will have to take care of it soon, or I will end up in a wheelchair.

It was a hard decision to leave in the middle of the night, I wanted to stay with her wrapped in my arms so badly, but I just can't allow it to turn into something more. One day, I will have to leave this city and her behind and go back to what I am required to do, having to take her with me and messing her life and plans, would be so selfish of me.

But she wants that. That is her goal. Why would she kiss me in front of so many fans, if that wasn't the case?

**
My eyes snap open when I hear a knock on the wooden doors. I lay still for couple of seconds more just to make sure I heard correctly. Another double knock.

I remove the covers and put on a hotel robe, I would not want to welcome anyone in my underwear. I clear my throat and walk to the doors and unlock them. My heart stops beating when I see a person I have been looking for from the very beginning.

"Lucia?" My voice cracks and she shyly looks down, her plump lips stretching into a smile, "oh my God, come in," I say and open the doors wider so she can come inside.

She walks gracefully to the center of the room, flashback appears in front of my eyes but I quickly clear my head and focus on her.

"Hi, Harry," she smiles to me as if nothing ever happend, well nothing did, she just vanished into a thin air.

"W-what, where have you been? What happend?" I am sure I look like a crazy person, with eyes wide, pursed lips, but I can care less.

"It's a really long story. I just came to warn you about someone," she says so nonchalantly, I squeeze my eyebrows in confusion and say nothing.

"It's about Eliana. I am afraid she is not who she pretends to be,"
