"I believe in love, but I don't think I would ever fall in love." I muttered, looking down at my hands, almost feeling ashamed for having said that out loud.

"Hey," Harry breathed, placing his hand under my chin as he lifted my face up towards himself. "Why not, love?"

"I..." I began again, unsure how to word my darkest fears. I felt Harry slip his palms into mine as he rubbed the back of my hand with his thumb, calming the ruckus in my mind instantly. I sighed, "I don't think I can ever trust anyone," I started, looking up at Harry woefully. He watched me patiently, awaiting further explanation. "I don't think I will ever meet anyone who will love me as much as I would be willing to love them." I sighed, "So I don't. I don't love anyone, at all." I just can't bring myself to get attached, I thought grimly.
