Niall’s p.o.v
I snapped back to reality to see Zoe had fallen asleep, my mind kept running over my memories from when I was younger and it was mental how much my life had changed since then, but at the same time how much it hasn’t whilst in school I always sat alone since Zoe ate in the dinning hall but I sat on the social area. I didn’t want to ruin Zoe’s reputation she built up but after my well you could say my suicide attempt she kept a close eye on me.
*flashback*
Lunch time ran came quicker than expected but it was my first day back since my accident and let’s say it didn’t turn out well at school I was isolated even more everyone called me freak and told me I should have died and stuff like that , but I was used to it since doctor Roberts used to say things like that to me. i sat down at my usual empty table until I felt someone sit next to me I looked over to come face to face with Zoe.
“what are you doing sitting here you don’t want to ruin your rep” I said.
“well hello to you too” she said.
“Zoe you should just go and sit with your usual friends I don’t want you to get bullied too” I said.
“I’m keeping an eye on you to make sure you don’t do anything stupid and you looked like you needed company and I don’t want you to be alone I do wish you would have told me though” she said.
“I don’t need help and I’m fine being alone I’m used to it I mean you know my past” I said.
“you don’t deserve to be alone though no one does” she said.
“Zoe please don’t do something you’re going to regret” I said.
“Zoe what are you doing with this freak, it would be better for everyone if he did just die anyway come on let’s go” Laura one of Zoe’s friends said no one knew that we lived together or that she was my friend.
“he’s my friend and it wouldn’t be best if he died imagine if he did die basically his blood would be on your hands so that would backfire and why bother him he’s just like everyone else so why don’t you do me a favour and fuck off” Zoe said standing up to be face to face with Jessica.
“no I wouldn’t have his blood on my hands I would be happy I mean he’s a waste of space no one loves him. He has no family he has no one so he wouldn’t be missed.” Jessica said my eyes widened how did she know I have no family.
“how did yo-“
“how did I know trust me I know everything about everyone I know that your family ditched you and left you behind and to be honest I’m not shocked why would they want a freak of a son like you” Jessica spat.
“why would anyone want a daughter like you a rich, snobby girl who I bet has to buy all of her friends or a boyfriend” I said.
“James!” Jessica shouted shit now I’m in trouble.
“show him where he stands!” Jessica demanded and I no time I was held back by two of James’ friends whilst I became James’ personal punch bag whilst Zoe shouted out in pleads for them to stop.
“shut up bitch!” Jessica said before pushing Zoe over and turns out that was the trigger I needed to do something about this. My reflexes kicked in and I managed to get out of the two boys grips and I headed straight for James and pinned him to the wall and I grabbed up and held him by the neck stopping him from breathing and by now there was a huge crowd around us and I chucked James to the floor and stood on his ribs either badly bruising them or cracking a few of them until I was grabbed off of him by a teacher and I was took to the head teachers office where I was suspended for a month.
*flashback over*
I didn’t have the heart to wake Zoe up so I picked her up and she gripped onto my chest as I carried her to the guest room. I lay her down on the bed and I pulled the covers over her and I went to leave when she grabbed the bottom of my top.
“don’t leave” she mumbled I turned around to see her looking up at me tiredly I got her hand off of my top and I walked around the other side of the bed and climbed under the quilt as she cuddled up to my chest and shortly after she fell asleep, and I pulled her closer to me and I kissed her forehead and I rested my chin on her head as I attempted to fall asleep.
Never have I realised how important Zoe actually is to me until this moment and I know I can’t lose her.
Harry’s p.o.v
Louis’ mum continued to stitch Louis up, she unfortunately didn’t have anything to stop him from feeling the stitches so every so often he would hiss out in pain. Liam and I just sat on one of the settees watching whilst the girls had gone back to their rooms as they didn’t want to see this, it was quite sickly to watch but we didn’t have a room to go to so we were stuck sitting here watching.
“i don’t like seeing him in pain” Liam said.
“I don’t like seeing anyone in pain” I said.
“I don’t either but it’s worse when it’s someone you care about” Liam said jay had finally finished and she gave Louis some tablets for any pain and Louis fell asleep on the settee.
“so what actually happened like when he was took I was too busy worrying about him being took and what was happening to him to focus on that” Jay said.
“we were answering twitter questions and Louis was further from all of us when the lights or power in general went out and since Louis was further away and I had a hold of Niall they took that opportunity to take him” Liam said.
“how did you get him back?” she asked.
“Niall and Niall’s friend Zoe knew where the place was and we got him back by going in and getting him” I said.
“well you and Niall since Niall didn’t want Zoe in there and we went to the cell room and he wasn’t there” Liam said.
“I will never forget that place though it was just so filthy and dark and just plain terrible, I will forever have images of that place in my mind and the way we found Louis” I said.
“I don’t know how he’s always so happy though he was stuck in that place for a few years and if anyone saw him they would never have been trapped somewhere” Liam said.
“he tries to forget” Jay said.
“If I was kept in there I would never be able to be happy again” I said.
“I wouldn’t either” Liam said I let out a loud yawn and covered my mouth.
“you boys can go to be there’s air bed up in Louis old room since he only has a single bed” Jay said.
“would you like us to put him in his room?” Liam asked.
“yeah just watch his side” jay said.
“night Jay” I said and gave her a hug and we wondered up the stairs to find Louis room.
“can you remember which one it is?” I asked.
“no it’s been too long” Liam said.
I know the end room is the bathroom” I said.
“that’s not going to help us” Liam said.
“are you two done bickering” felicity said.
“no we aren’t but do you know which one Louis’ room is?” I asked.
“that one there” she said pointing to the second last bedroom.
“thanks” Liam said walking towards the door.
“can you open it since I have Louis in my arms” Liam said and I opened the door and Liam walked around the airbed and put him in his bed.
“I’m so tired it’s not even funny” I said lying down on the airbed.
“don’t hog all of the bed!” Liam said.
“I’m going to get changed anyway” I said and I grabbed some clothes out of my small suitcase and walked to the bathroom and once I got back I lay in the small bed and fell asleep.
