Trapped in Their World

Chapter 53

Jaylee's POV

I let out a deep sigh as I stepped out of the vehicle and felt the cold wind blow right past me. My hair whipped with the breeze, causing me to pull it behind my ear and secure it. I looked up at my small apartment, feeling a million emotions roll inside of me. I know it's only been probably a few months, but it felt like years since I've seen this place. My heart began to race against my chest as I examined the outside of my home, feeling tears swell up in my eyes.

"You won't forget about us..... right?" I heard Niall say softly as he leaned against the opened window. I let out a deep breath before I smiled and turned to face all of them, realizing they were all peering at me.

"No... never." I promised as they all looked at me with sad eyes.

"We won't forget about you... partner." Liam grinned, sitting in the drivers seat.

"Thank you guys.... for everything. For having my back... for being a friend in the end. I know we came off to a rough start, but..... it's nothing I would hold against you." I smiled before I rested my hand against the opening of the window.

"Believe us, you don't need to feel grateful for anything. We did this to you. But we're glad you forgive us and can move on." Louis smiled as our eyes met.

"You'll all take care of yourselves right....? Stay safe and.... stay out of trouble." I said as I glanced at all of them.

"Trouble is my middle name sweetheart." Harry teased as he chilled in the backseat with Zayn and Niall.

"Yeah... we will." Harry suddenly admitted as he nodded his head.

"Thank you." I smiled before I placed my hand on top of Niall's.

"Promise you'll call us every now and then?" Niall begged as his pleading eyes met mine.

"Of course. I plan on telling you how I've been." I smiled as I rubbed my thumb against his skin.

"We're going to miss you Jaylee... really." Zayn said as he glared at me. I could see he was hiding his pain behind his brown eyes.

"I'm going to miss all of you." I smiled back before I bent down and grabbed Zayn's duffel bag.

"You always have a home with us Jaylee. Whenever you want or need to come back, we'll gladly accept you." Louis offered as I smiled lightly.

"We'll beat whoever harasses you too. Tell us if any trouble comes along, we'll handle it." Niall said protectively as I blushed.

"Thank you." I replied before I squeezed Niall's hand and took a few steps back.

"You have our numbers." Liam stated as I nodded my head.

"Take care of yourself Jaylee." Harry added as I smiled.

"You guys too..... goodbye." I said before I waved my hand and took one last glance at all of their faces.

I then sighed before I turned around and slowly approached my door, looking at the cream colored walls as my heart raced. It then dawned on me that I didn't have my house key anymore, but it didn't matter since I always left my window unlocked.

I suddenly grew embarrassed as I walked over towards my window and slid it open, preparing myself to sneak inside. I then threw my duffel bag into the kitchen before I began climbing inside through the window.

"Look at her. A pro already." Niall said as I blushed and managed to crawl through the sink and onto the ground. I then looked back while fixing my hair, seeing all of them smile at me proudly before I waved my hand.
