Summer Sky | L.T.

It had been 2 weeks since I moved here and I love it, I truly do. I love the people here and the lovely shops or the university. Do you know how much history it contains? I don't even know where to start. The architecture is amazing. I have been wondering through the city on my own and with some new friends. I had the time of my life. I was back to my old self but with some barriers. I wore normal clothes again and not only dark colours. I got a job at the library and I even worked at the local student radio station. I had the station to myself in the morning from 9 till 11 am and I even get paid for that.

The classes were great and I learned so much. I already had to make essays for history and English. I had chosen "the Tudors" and "Sense and Sensibility" for my essays. It was difficult though and I was pretty much locked up at night to make sure I had them done in time. I also had to write a short story about one of my heroes. I wrote about my dad but in an Alternative universe setting, making him one of the marvel heroes.

On Friday's I went to the local pub with friends and this Friday wasn't different. I walked towards the pub and saw my friends standing outside waiting for me. You could feel the autumn in the air as it was a chilly night. I decided to wear warm clothes for today. I had put on my favourite black skinny jeans with a red sweater on top. My hair was in a ponytail and I even wore my glasses, as I didn't bother to wear my contacts. I wasn't trying to find a boyfriend so I didn't bother to get all cute and stuff.

"Sky, finally, we were waiting forever!" I giggled as I let Ashley pull me inside. I loved the cosy pub. IT was my second home, if I didn't feel like studying at home, you could always find me here. Today was a bit different as there was a football match on the telly and it was packed. "Who's playing?" I still didn't get football that much but apparently they were nuts about it in Europe. "England vs Spain" Ah yes the European cup, how could I forget. I looked at my shirt and I know I had picked the wrong one.

I walked towards the bar as I had to try and get a different shirt. "James? Do you by any chance have a shirt that I can put on? I don't want people to think I'm rooting for Spain." I asked with a smile, knowing that he was like putty in my hands. ?Of course, follow me.? I followed him and walked with him into the office, where he pulled a shirt out one of the lockers. For some reason it was my size. "Can I keep it or do you want it back?" I asked him whilst I pulled my sweater over my head. He was standing with his back towards me. "You can keep it Sky." I smiled because that really was sweet of him. "Thank you James." I said whilst walking passed him.

Ashley grabbed me by my arm. "Where did you go?" she was scanning me and smiled her perfect smile when she saw the shirt. "You know he actually bought that for you right?" I know he did and I was ashamed of myself for using that against him. I know he liked me but he just wasn't my type. I did like him though but as a good friend. We ordered beer and sat in front of the telly with the others. I had never seen so many people cursing at a game in my life but as the match continued I got dragged into it.

After the match, which we won, we were helping James clean up the pub when I suddenly felt my phone vibrate. "Sorry I have to take this." I didn't recognize the number but it was past midnight so something must be wrong right? Why would you call someone if there wasn't something up this late?

"Hello?" It was quiet on the other side and I almost hung up again, when the person scraped his throat. "I need you." I recognised that voice immediately and my heart skipped a beat. "Louis?" I whispered totally in shock. His voice didn't sound good. "Please help me?" he begged me but I didn't even know where he was. "Louis, where are you right now?" I asked trying to keep my voice steady. "I don't know." He sounded desperate. I took a deep breath before talking to him.

"Are you still in your hometown?" I asked him because that would narrow it down. "I guess I am, please come and get me." I wanted to talk back but the line got broken up. "SHIT."

I ran back into the pub, Ashley got up alarmed by my expression. "Ash I need your car key." I said, she didn't hesitate one minute and threw me her car keys. "James, will you please take her home, I won't be back for a while." I told them both. Ashley looked worried "Sky is everything okay?" I shook my head. "No, you remember what I told you about Louis?" She nodded slowly "Yes I remember, why?" She was actually confused by now as was James by hearing a guys name. "He is in trouble and I have to go get him." I explained quickly. She hugged me and I ran to her car. I was regretting the beer I had but luckily for me I didn't drink more then two beers.

I called Mr. Tomlinson while I drove onto the highway. "Yes?" I had woken him but I had no other choice. "Mr Tomlinson, I'm sorry for calling but I need to know where Louis lives." I almost screamed this at him and it went completely quiet. I let him think it through when I heard him mumble something. "He lives in Doncaster." He gave me the address, I wanted to hang up but he stopped me. "Sky, what is happening, why do you need his address?"

"Louis called me in panic, it really scared me so I'm on my way to get him and to make sure he is okay." I explained quickly. "Please let me know when you have found him." I promised him I would call him. I stopped at the side to put the address in my phone and followed the instruction that would lead me to Doncaster. Turns out I was going in the right direction already, I couldn't drive harder then was allowed, as I couldn't risk to get pulled over. "never should have drink that beer" I mumbled to myself. I was tapping my steering wheel impatiently. Why the hell did he call me in the first place, how did he even know I was in England. "Right, I did mention that when I called him" I muttered to myself. Now I was even talking to myself but I really thought he hadn't been listening to the voicemails I left him but apparently he had.

It began to rain, which sucked even more as I didn't really like driving in the dark let alone in the rain. This was because of my glasses, the reflecting on the road was messing with my sight. I sighed but let go of my gas pedal. This would only take me longer and I really was anxious by now as the tapping got faster and harder on the steering wheel. I listened to the radio and was happy to hear songs that didn't make me fall asleep.

It took me way too long to get to Doncaster, I even had to stop for some gas. I got myself some red bull and I also took a quick bathroom stop I did this all in 5 minutes before getting back in the car again. I was still wearing that jersey and as the summer was almost at an end it was getting colder fast, so to say I was cold was an understatement. I turned up the heat in the car and continued my way. After 2 hours I finally reached Doncaster and I drove straight to his house, not really expecting him there but I had to try. I know his mom was sick so I really felt bad for knocking on the front door like this.

The hallway light was switched on and I could see a woman walking towards the door, she didn't look really good but it was too late to turn around now. She opened the door, her eyes almost popped out of her tired face when she saw me, which was weird because I had never met her before now. "Sky?" she asked uncertain and I nodded. "Yes, I'm sorry for waking you up but Louis called me and it sounded like he was in trouble, he asked me to come." I said and I was really surprised that she followed that because I had never said something that fast.

"I'm sorry Sky but Louis isn't home but I think I know where he is but I don't think that's a place for you." She said apologetic. I shrugged, nothing was more important then getting Louis out of trouble. "I understand but I just drove like 4 hours to get here and I'm really tired not to mention wet, so please just tell me where I can find him." She looked at me and nodded. She gave me the address and I could immediately tell that it was a club. I just didn't really want to find out what kind of club. I got back into the car and followed the instructions. I spotted the club immediately and my worst fears were confirmed. It was the same club as the one in France but then much worse.

You could tell it was a stripclub. I took a deep breath before I climbed out of the car. "What have you been doing Louis." I said to myself as I walked towards the door. The security guard didn't even bother to look at me and he just let me pass him. It had probably to do with the fact that I was woman. I stopped dead in my tracks when I saw what I had walked into. This was not only a stripclub but your could call it a sexclub because people were having sex as if they were alone. I had never ever seen anything like this and I was shocked to my core.

"Hello love, fancy a drink?" I heard someone say near to my ear, he even touched my waist. I couldn't do anything rude though so I just shimmied out of his reach. "No thank you but maybe you can tell me were I can find Louis?" I showed him a picture on my phone. He was definitely disappointed when he saw who I was looking for. "He is busy love." I immediately jumped to conclusions and I started to look everywhere not caring that I was watching people having sex. I just hoped that Louis wasn't one of those men because that would literally break me.

I couldn't find him anywhere though when I saw a door in the back. There were security guards in front of it. It was the only room I hadn't looked yet. I squeezed my eyes shut to gain some courage. I opened them again and started walking towards the door and as expected I got hold back by one of the guards. "Where do you think your going love?" It was probably better if I just told him the truth. "I'm looking for Louis, have you seen him?" I asked politely. He suddenly checked me out and chuckled. "He does like girls in football gear. I guess you can go through but first you must at least change your clothes."

He was joking right? What was wrong with my skinny jeans. "Can't I just enter the way I look now?" I asked in a seductive tone because that was the only way to get things done. "I'm sorry but you are really wearing too much, piper here will help you out." A girl not much older then myself grabbed me by my arm and pulled me into a dressing room.

I eventually picked out the least skimpy outfit, which was a mini skirt, I was lucky with the black lace underwear I had chosen this morning because Piper approved of it. Next thing I know she starts working on my hair, she dries it and after that she starts to curl my hair, she is actually pretty good in what she is doing. "Why aren't you a hairdresser?" I asked softly, she gave me a small smile and shrugged.

"You are all done, let's get you to Louis." She grabbed me by my arm again and I tried to ignore everyone as we walked by the couples. When the guard sees me he finally smiled. "This is much better, have fun." He let me through. I stumbled into the room and my eyes adjust quickly. I look around to see Louis sitting at one of the tables. He didn't recognise me as he looked up. "Can I help you?" He sounded out of this world and not in a good way. What has he done to himself?' This looks even worse then when I saw him nearly dead.

I had to get him out of here. I walked up to him and kneeled down in front of him so I could stare him in the eyes. His eyes were much too big and his hands were shaking. I took a deep breath and slowly put my hand on his cheek to make him focus on me. I thought I saw some recognition in his eyes but he still didn't say a thing. I had to get through to him. I kept staring at him with my hand still on his cheek. I let out the breath I was holding and opened my mouth.

"Louis?"
