"Feeling used, but I'm still missing you and I can't see the end of this, just wanna feel your kiss against my lips and now all this time is passing by, but I still can't seem to tell you why it hurts me every time I see you, realize how much I need you." —Gnash & Olivia O'Brien.
Chapter Theme Song: 'I Hate You, I Love You' by Gnash ft. Olivia O'Brien.••HarmonyI have no right to be mad at Blaze, right?Everyone warned me, including himself. He did say that he may emotionally destroy me. But it still hurts because, in my head, I was secretly hoping that he felt the same. It hurts to be viewed as easy to someone, and it hurts even more when you give them the impression that you are.I spent longer in the shower this morning so I can get all the tears out before heading to class. My eyes are red with bags underneath them, and though I am not a mak"I remember years ago, someone told me I should take caution when it comes to love, I did. And you were strong and I was not, my illusion, my mistake. I was careless, I forgot, I did. And now when all is done, there is nothing to say. You have gone and so effortlessly, you have won, you can go ahead tell them. Tell them all I know now. Shout it from the roof tops, write it on the sky line, all we had is gone now. Tell them I was happy and my heart is broken. All my scars are open. Tell them what I hoped would be impossible."—James Arthur.Chapter Theme Song: 'Impossible' by James Arthur.A/N: Pleasee listen the above song! :)••HarmonyWe are now standing in front of the large doors that lead to the lunchroom. I turn to face him, jerking a thumb behind me."We are here. That's the—"He suddenly grips my hand and thru
"I've watched those eyes light up with a smile, river in the not good times. Oh, you taught me all that I know. I've seen your soul grow just like a rose made it through all of those thorns, girl into the woman I know. And it's killing me to say I'm fine, when I really mean to say that you're my all and more and all I know you taught me." —Lauv.Chapter Theme Song: 'Breathe' by Lauv.A/N: The song above is one of my favorite songs :)°°~Previously on Rescue My Drowning Heart.Harmony wakes up with swollen eyelids after crying all night about what happened with Blaze.

A girly chuckle emits from her as she presses her palms against her eyes. "Why do I have to start?"She scans the circle before her eyes stop on Tia, who notices and tries to shift out of her view, making the whole circle erupts in fits of laughter.During my giggles, my eyes land on Blaze and he's maliciously looking at me and not taking his eyes off. I clear my throat and look away from him.Is he still mad? He said things to hurt me too."T', Truth or Dare?"Tia pretends to ponder for a second before she smiles. "Dare.""I da
"Because of you, I find it hard to trust not only me but everyone around me. Because of you, I am afraid."Chapter Theme Song: 'Because of You' by Kelly Clarkson.••HarmonyToday is Friday, and we don't have classes. So, I decided to head to my hometown for the weekends. I think seeing my mom and my little brother and catching up with Collum would make me feel better. I hope they won't catch on to the dark circles beneath my eyes and my swollen eyelids. I tried to cover them up with makeup the best that I could.April wishes me a safe journey as I leave the dorm room, and I stand at the entrance to the school's campus, waiting to see my Mother's blue Honda pull up to the curb. The morning is extremely chilly, and the frosty wind blows my curls around the frame of my face as I try to get myself warm under my sweater.Distant chattering leads me to pull my g

All that you rely on and all that you can fake will leave you in the morning but find you in the day."Chapter Theme Song: 'In My Veins' by Andrew Belle.••Blaze"Say hi, Blaze." My dad says as we stand in front of my mother's grave. Or rather, thewoman'sgrave.Is he serious?I sigh. "Say hi to whom?"He looks over at me as if I am talking absolute crap when he's the one who wants me to speak to a headstone."Your mother." He grits out.I roll my eyes and stuff my hands in my pockets. If I knew he would force me to talk to a pile of dirt, I would have just stayed at Homewood."Blaze.""I am not going to talk to a mound of stone like I'm schizophrenic. I mean, I have a mental condi
"You've built your wall so high that no one could climb it but I'm gonna try."Chapter Theme Song: 'Beneath Your Beautiful' by Labrinth ft. Emeli Sande.••HarmonyThe car ride to Homewood is extremely quiet as I sit in the backseat. Blaze has his head perched against his headrest at the front while his dad is tapping his fingers against the steering wheel. That is probably his way of dealing with uncomfortable tensions. A few times, Blaze's eyes and mine would connect from his side mirror, and I would look away awkwardly, butterflies instantly circulating in my abdomen."So Harmony, right?"I meet Mr. Blake's gaze through his top mirror. "Yes, sir. Harmony is correct.""Is your major at Homewood Business like my son?"Blaze's major is Business? It's so sad to admit that I don't even know that much."Um no, my major

Small hands hovered above my head in a bid to shield myself from the raw wire, the skin on my knuckles tearing painfully at each strike that met them. Blood spotted my skin, oozing from my now exposed dermis."Remove your hands, Blaze Xander!" The woman, who was supposed to be my mother, ordered while not ceasing her merciless beatings on a skinny eight-year-old.She grabbed my hands to pull them apart, and I cried at the top of my lungs, desperately crawling away from her on my stomach while my body scraped against the
"I can't say no. Though the lights are on there's nobody home. Swore I'd never lose control then I fell in love with a heart that beats so slow." —Troye Sivan ft. Alex Hope.Chapter Theme Song: 'Blue' by Troye Sivan ft. Alex Hope.A/N: Please listen to the above song :)••HarmonyBlaze is a Sociopath. I have heard a few things about it in the movies, but I had no idea I would meet someone with the condition in real life.It means he lacks the emotion of empathy and all those feelings that make you "human." He cares for no-one, he trusts no-one, and sadly, he loves no-one. Which is exactly why he tends to use girls and exactly why he can't tell me that he likes me.Now that I know this, I realize that what he did, approaching me to get between my legs, was totally unintentional. He really can't help it.Based on
"I can't make you love me if you don't, you can't make your heart feel, something that it won't." —Tank/Adele.Chapter Theme Song: 'I Can't Make You Love Me' by Adele.••Harmony"I have to go," I mumble with a hung head while quickly moving past him. With a loud sigh, he grasps my arm to halt my steps. "Harmony, wait."I hastily free myself of his grip and glance around the area. If Blaze sees us talking, he will certainly be mad. I respect him just as much as he respects me.I take a step back. "What are you doing here?""To see you." He shrugs. "Why aren't you answering my text messages?""I didn't see them..."He simpers and shakes his head. "Now you're lying? You know WhatsApp is known for its 'read recipients' feature, and I see that my messages get 'blue ticked' all the time, you don't have to lie.""Look, Kite, I like you but not in the way you want me to." I sigh. "I love Blaze."He nods and scratches his nose. "Yeah, but does he love you?"I don't say anything, I just look a
"Just close your eyes, you and I, will go out of space and time." —Natalia Lesz.Chapter Theme Song: 'Fire In The Sky' by Natalia Lesz.••HarmonyI have no idea when we arrived at the school's back section, away from the concert. I can hear the faint sound of the loud music as we sit on a seat situated under a massive tree.The chirping birds are melodies to my ears, and the wind feels cool and refreshing as it dances through the leaves. As the sun slowly sets, it releases slim rays of yellow lights on the bench we're sitting on.This is more like it. Being alone, away from everyone, with the person I love is the most priceless feeling."The school feels a lot better when no one is around." I smile.Blaze nods. "It does. Imagine if it were just us two in the world...it'd be great. At least then, I'd feel like I am 'living' and not just 'existing.'"I look at him. "You feel like you're just existing?"He shrugs lightly. "Yeah. A few weeks ago, I couldn't find the purpose of life. I me
"But how am I supposed to love you when I don't love who I am? And how can I give you all of me when I'm only half a man? 'Cause I'm a sinking ship that's burning so let go of my hand. Oh, how can I give you all of me when I'm only half a man?" —Dean Lewis.Chapter Theme Song: 'Half A Man' by Dean Lewis.••HarmonyThe evening air is a little humid, so I ensure not to leave behind my grey, oversize hoodie. It belongs to my late father but I took possession of it due to how roomy and warm it is. But it isn't solely because of that. No matter how many times I wash the fabric, I can still smell his scent on it. It feels as though I am getting a gigantic hug from him whenever I wear it, and it is comforting.April takes my advice and wears my turtleneck top, and I have to admit that it looks far better on her than it does on me. The long, satin sleeves hug her slender arms perfectly as if the shirt was custom-made just for her. I plan on letting her keep it; it fits her too well.Yuna and
“And I will find my strength to untape my mouth when I used to be afraid of the words but with you I’ve learned just to let it out now my heart is ready to burst. ’Cause I feel like I’m ready for love and I wanna be your everything and more. And I know every day I say it but I just want you to be sure, that I am yours.” —Ella Henderson.Chapter Theme Song: ‘Yours’ by Ella Henderson.Warning: Chapter May Contain Mature Sexual Content.••HarmonyHe pulls me on top of him so that I am straddling his lap, and his hard-on immediately grows firmer against my center. It scares me a little, but I don’t move away. I don’t want to be free from his kiss, not yet.With our mouths still joined together, the hand caressing my waist wanders down until he’s tugging at the drop strings on the front of my shorts. Abruptly, I break the kiss, and his cherry lips jut at the action, wonder reeling in his mesmerizing eyes. My lips part as I stare back at him, my chest lifting and falling.He smiles. “What?
"I think of you whenever I am alone, so please don't go." —Joel Adams.Chapter Theme Song: 'Please Don't Go' by Joel Adams.••Harmony"So, what movie would you like to watch?" Blaze asks while he skims through Netflix on my laptop.I tuck a leg underneath me and hand him the bag of chips while I take a cupcake from the small carton."Anything is fine." I smile."Anything?" He lifts a brow mischievously, and I chuckle."Except horror...or anything with a possible sex scene..." I mumble the last part, but he hears and begins to laugh."Yeah. I remember that last time you almost shook us both off my dorm bed." He titters."We can watch that." I point at the recently re-made 'The Lion King.'Blaze frowns but taps on it anyway. "Cartoon? Really?""No, it's not a cartoon; the graphics look more real than not. This is the recent one that came out some time ago.""Alright, anything for you anyway." He says, and I smile.He sets the laptop at the top of the bed, and we both lay onto our stoma
"Someone taught me that I was evil." —Kate Vogel.Chapter Theme Song: 'Rain' by Kate Vogel.••HarmonyI am standing in my spot motionlessly, glaring at her and trying to understand how she got inside when I am positive, I had closed the door. I know Blaze can pick a lock, but Maddie? Can she?Taking notice of my obvious confusion she lets out a mirthless chuckle."I am so sorry; did I startle you?"Her question snaps me back to reality, and I shake my head. "Um, no...I just...thought I had closed the door...what brings you here?"She shrugs her shoulders as she steps closer. "Oh well, I am just paying you a visit, is that odd?"I shake my head while running my palms against my shorts. Her presence makes me agitated and fretful because the look she gave me earlier at the meeting did not seem normal at all."I mean, my dorm room is right next door to yours, so it's just two seconds walk." She states."Wait...your room is next to mine?" I lift a brow.She giggles. "Yes, silly. My daddy

Donovan.AN: I think the above song fits Blaze perfectly! :) Please have a listen!••Harmony"Woah, that was amazing!" Mal compliments as he walks over to me. The music meeting has ended, and everyone is gradually filing out of the room.Maddie is behind him, and she's looking from me to Blaze with the same frown engraved on her face."Thanks, Mal." I smile."That was awesome, Harmony!" Justine inputs as she joins us, smiling from ear to ear. "I enjoyed it.""Thanks, I am happy you did. It means a lot to know that you guys found it entertaining.""Oh, the whole club did." She chuckles. "The way you were staring at Blaze so passionately, I think the whole school knows you both are in love now."Heat spreads to my cheeks in a matter of seconds, and I glance over at Blaze, whose face is now abnormally red. Is he blushing?Maddie tenses visibly then forc

Very important, please listen to the above song when Harmony sings it in the chapter, it may not make much sense if you don't, lol.••Third Person POVBlaze opens the transparent door that leads to the music room, Harmony's hand firmly interlaced with his as he steps in. The crisp air conditions drafting over the room doesn't ease her anxiety since she can still feel her palms becoming clammy from unease.She is standing behind his tall figure like a timid kitten, and between the narrow spaces of his arm, she can see a few heads twisted in their direction. As usual.Oh, how she hates the spotlight.Blaze glances down at her from over his shoulders, amused by her hiding behind him. "Hey, don't be afraid, alright? I got you, green eyes."She smiles up at him. "Thank you, Blaze."Maddie, who sits with Malcolm in the far-left corner
"When I look at you, I see forgiveness, I see the truth. You love me for who I am." —Miley Cyrus.Chapter Theme Song: 'When I Look At You' by Miley Cyrus.••Harmony"What promise did you make?" April asks as she walks over to sit next to me on the bed.Maddie finally left after I reassured her five times that I would speak to Blaze on her behalf.I suspire heavily, having used up all my physical and mental energy. "She asked me to ask Blaze if they could be friends."April's eyes widen at this. "Oh damn...so you agreed?""Uh...yeah." I rub my arm, and her eyes are even larger now if that is even possible. She shakes her head repeatedly."Oh no, Harmony. Sweetie, you have no idea what you are doing. She will take your man, dear. Listen, she doesn't want to be 'just friends' with him, okay? Maddie is obsessed. She's kind of 'coo-coo' in the head." She rotates her finger at the side of her head, and I resist the urge to smile."She's not sane. I think when Blaze took her v-card, he also
