⚠️TRIGGER WARNING: STABBING, SUICIDE & SEX⚠️

Harry Styles

I put down the cards again. We all looked at them with a lot of fear.

'I'll go first.' Zayn said. 'Truth.' He added.

'Are you in love right now and so yes with who?' He read.

'Honestly, not at this very moment.' He said as laid they card down again.

'I'll go next.' Niall said. 'You sure?' Brooke asked. 'Yes. I'll go for truth.' Niall added.

'Who's the first person here you would kill if necessary?' He read. He didn't want to answer, I could see it on his face.

'I'm sorry, but Leah. I never really talked to you.' He said. 'It's okay Niall, I know you wouldn't kill me.' Leah said. She felt hurt I could see it.

No one wanted to go next so I volunteered. 'I'll go next.' I said. I picked up a dare card. Fear flowed through my body. I turned the card as I got shocked. 'Harry? What's wrong?' Leah asked. I didn't answer.

'Dude why are you not answering?' Niall asked. Everyone looked concerned. 'I.. it's just...' I stuttered. 'Harry what's on your card? You scare me.' Leah said.

'Okay fine wanna know?' I said filled with anger and fear. 'Yes Harry. That's what we want to know.' Leah answered with a mean tone in her voice.

'I have to..' I stuttered again. 'Yes???' Niall said. 'I have to stab a person!' I yelled.

Everyone looked at me. Mad, even tough they knew it wasn't my choice. 'Wait maybe I have an idea.' I said. 'What's your plan bro?' Niall asked.

'I gotta stab someone, but there's no name or specific person on the card.' I explained. 'So?' Louis asked. 'I just stab someone randomly, we already call an ambulance before it happens, so the person who gets stabbed will survive.' I added. 'Actually, that's a great idea. But what if the police will catch you?' Brooke asked.

'I prefer to get caught and not kill someone.' I said. Everyone agreed. 'Okay let's go I guess.' Leah said.

We walked out of the hotel and straight to the supermarket. I had the knife under my jacket. I walked into the store as the others waited outside. Leah had her phone ready so she could call an ambulance. I gave her a sign to call 911. 'Hi I'm Leah Adams and someone got stabbed by a knife.' I heard her saying.

Now it was my turn. I walked to the cashiers. My head tried to not do it. But if I didn't do it... I had no idea who else would die. I walked to the cashier and stabbed him. I could feel the knife going through his body. I tried to not put the knife very deep into the guy's skin. I heard him screaming and crying. I couldn't handle it and I ran away.

I ran and I ran, till I got back at the hotel. I hope they didn't identify me. I wore a green hoody, a cap and sunglasses so they couldn't see my face clearly. I could here the police- and ambulance cars from my hotel room.

I never cried, but suddenly I felt a tear rolling out of my eye. I walked to the bathroom and looked at myself. I looked so broken, like there was no escape. This was a feeling I've never had before, even though it always has been there. I felt like I've always hidden this part of me. No one had to know what had happened to me and why I felt like this. I don't talk about emotions often.

I searched through my stuff and found a knife, I turned it to myself when I suddenly heard something. 'Giving up so fast?' I heard Elizabeth saying. 'The game just started.' She added. 'Elizabeth leave!' I yelled at her.

'You're such a d*ck you know? Good news, the guy who got stabbed is still alive. But apparently you wanna celebrate that with your own blood.' She said.

'The only thing you've done is showing me who I really am.' I said. 'And what are you? If I can ask.' She said. 'Broken! Don't you see?' I yelled at. I felt another tear falling down my cheek.

'Yes you are.' She said as she came closer. Her lips came closer to mine. She kissed me once again. The knife fell on the ground as I kissed her back. I had no idea what was happening to me. Elizabeth closed the bathroom door and started undressing. She fell into the bathtub with me in her arms. Moments flew by so fast, when suddenly I heard my room door opening. 'Harry?? Are you here?' I heard a voice saying. I turned my head and stepped out of the bathtub.

I put on my clothes as fast as possible. 'I'm here!' I said. I opened the door when I saw the others standing in my room. 'Where were you?' Louis asked. 'I was taking a shower.' I said, I can't tell them what just happend between me and Elizabeth. 'We're happy you are okay Harry.' Leah said. 'The guy is still alive.' She added.

'I'm happy he's fine.' I answered. I turned my head into the bathroom as I saw Elizabeth left and the knife was still on the floor. I closed my bathroom door and sat with the others.

Suddenly I saw a paper in the middle of the cards, I picked up and read: 'Good job Harry, as long as you guys are playing fair and honest no one will get hurt. Signed E.' 'So Elizabeth won't hurt anyone as long as we do whatever she wants us to do?' Brooke asked. 'Yes. That's exactly what she means.' Leah said.

We all knew that the person who got stabbed wouldn't be the last one.
