Cam 45- Preoccupied and prepared
Harry pulls up in front of my home and I’m doing my best not to shake and bounce my knee due to nervous excitement. I’mpushing the door open and getting out of the seat before. Harry even has the parking brake on because | don’t think I can sit stillfor another second. | wait awkwardly by the car as Harry gets out to join me. He immediately winds his fingers through mine andtugs me closer to him. We walk up to the doorstep, and as is our tradition,
we pause.
“So, Cam. Can | come in?” Harry asks. His tone is joking, | mean I've already invited him. inside. But there is a seriousness in hisexpression that tells me he does still mean it. He’s giving me a chance to change my mind and send him home. But | have nointention of doing that. To answer his question, | place a hand on his shoulder and tug him down towards me while going up onmy toes. | have to basically lean all my weight on him because I’m reaching up so high and I’m totally off balance, but it’s worth itbecause now | can kiss him. My lips are just reaching his when he suddenly jerks away from me. What the hell? I’m frozen inshock for a moment as my brain takes in the situation. Harry didn’t pull away from me, he was yanked away from me by Simongrabbing the back of his collar and pulling him down the few steps leading up to my door. Harry is on the ground looking stunnedand Simon stumbles after him, probably not actually prepared for the weight of the guy he basically pulled down. on himself inhis rage.
“What the hell are you doing?!” | scream.“I'm saving you from this demon.” Simon snarls back, still approaching Harry. | rush afterhim and grab his arm.
“Are you insane? Do | look like | need saving? Because | can assure you | don’t!” | tug on Simon's arm, trying to keep him fromattacking Harry again and giving Harry a chance to lurch to his feet, although he looks a little stiff from his collision with thecement. At least he
didn’t hit his head, thwould have been really bad.
“You don’t know that you need saving because this monster is manipulating you. You’re a woman so you're weak to his evilmagic.” Simon pulls his arm away from me and roughly shoves me back, | stumble on the steps and land on my ass right by myfront door. I’m tiny so | basically go flying straight into it. Ouch!

“You are actually insane! Harry isn’t manipulating me!” | scream the words. Harry shoves himself in between me and Simon,keeping his back to me so that it isn’t facing Simon again. | can’t believe | didn’t notice the asshole hanging around, although |suppose | WAS a little preoccupied. | should have gone to the police today rather than wait, and | should have warned Harry tobe on his guard. But | didn’t think that Simon would ATTACK him. There’s a big difference between spray painting a building ortaking a few photos and physically trying
to hurt someone.
“Don’t you dare touch her.” Harry says darkly, glaring at Simon. Shit this is not good. | don’t want Harry to get hurt. Why didn’t |call the police earlier? Why didn’t | bring a single defensive potion with me? I’m such an idiot. | could try a spell but myconcentration is completely shot so there’s no telling how it would turn out and | don’t want to risk hurting Harry with out ofcontrol magic. Simon takes a step closer and Harry tenses up.
“Let the girl go. Release her from your magic demon!” Simon demands. Harry tilts his head in confusion.
“I'm not a demon, I’m an Incubus, that’s a totally different species. And why the hell are you so convinced that I’m using magic onher?” He questions. His tone is oddly calm, totally different from the dark tone he had a moment ago. What is going on? | start tofeel a trickle of Harry’s magic rolling through me, but not the usual lust or excitement | usually get from him. This is more like...fear? But not quite. Stress? Is stress even an emotion? Either way the magic is making me feel stressed. Is he trying to makeSimon MORE agitated? Why the hell would he do that? Or is he doing it by accident somehow? | really need to ask Harry moreabout how his magic works. | know he can manipulate emotions, but | thought it was mostly related to lust and other physicalthings. Either way, the magic is having a clear impact on Simon. He breaks out in a sweat and his eyes start darting aroundnervously. It’s like he’s lost. the determined focus he had when he got here. He’s realised that he’s just one guy and that Harryisn’t just going to stand there and take it, or just hand me over without a fight. For a moment, it looks like he might even backdown. Then without warning, Simon launches himself at Harry, arm swinging wide in a punch, screaming out as he attacks. |cringe, hoping Harry doesn’t get hurt. To my complete and utter shock, Harry sidesteps the swing and without pausing, twistsaround, grabs Simon’s arm and in a clearly practised and oddly. graceful selection of twisting and turning movements, Harry pullsSimon’s arm in a way that causes him to overextend it. Simon immediately moves his weight, trying to escape the pain and Harrytwists him around again, grabbing him by the wrist and elbow and using his own weight to shove Simon face first into thecement. Simon fights for a moment, but Harry drops. his weight onto Simon’s back and twists his arm up behind him. Simonfreezes, clearly in
