I'll Always Be Here

Chapter 10

Chapter 10:

••6 months later••

Me Niall, Liam, and Zayn have been very close these past couple of months. It's almost been a year since Louis and Harry left.. We still get sad thinking about them but we've learned to face it. The boys have practically moved into my apartment with me to keep me company and for themselves.

"Bri were going out want to come?" Zayn asked.

I wasn't feeling very well lately and didn't feel like getting ready so I said no and they left.

I was lying on the couch just thinking. No TV, no music, no noise. Just me and my thoughts. I had been having dreams lately about Louis and him coming back and us finally getting the family I was dying for... As I was thinking about this tears started coming. I sighed and sat up realizing I couldn't think like that, he was gone and it was possibly forever. I cringed at the thought of my Louis being gone forever.

My phone started going off I saw Matthews face light up my screen as I pressed decline the picture went away. I hadn't told the boys about Matthew and I didn't really care for him anymore. I didn't want to deal with getting into another relationship when I obviously still loved Louis.

I heard running coming from the hall and perked up a bit from the chair I was lying across. It stopped and I heard heavy breathing then a knock in my door. I got up and looked through the hole to see Niall with his hand on the doorframe another in his stomach trying to catch his breath. I quickly opened the door for him and threw himself in my arms trying to calm down.

"Niall, what's wrong?!" I ask holding his shoulders firm. "Harry.... Liam... Zayn... Harry...." He said breathlessly.

My eyes widened. I had a bad feeling in my gut. I ran out of my apartment to search for Liam and Zayn. I saw then sitting on a bench with their heads down. I ran over to them and they looked up and got up. With no words they led me over to the back of the building where you could see a figure in the distance. It was in a ball and as you got colored you could see a person hugging their knees. I walked over recognizing his hair. It was in an orange Bennie with curls coming out the sides. The curls were barley they're but you could. You could tell it was Harry. I started running to him. Liam and Zayn stopped shortly after I got to him and sat next to him and hug him. He didn't smell bad, clothes looked clean, but I still couldn't se his face.

"Harry..." I whispered. He looked up in my eyes. He's face was normal too. His eyes looked sad with a bit of excitement.

"Harry come up to my room and we'll talk?" I asked standing up but his head sank again.

"Louis..." Was all he managed to say. "Harry where is Louis?" I asked sitting back down next to him. He shook his head. "Come on Harry.. Explain to me up stairs." I said again more firmly this time. He finally nodded getting up and walking with me back up. My arm was around his wast and his arm around my shoulders as we walked. His head still down. Liam and Zayn already went up comforting a frightened Niall.

"Harry we won't pressure you to tell us. I promise. Would you like anything?" I asked he looked over at me in the kitchen and gave me a small smile. He shook his head and patted the seat next to him. He looked a but happier.

"It's fine love I have a lot of explaining to do..." He said chuckling a little. Liam, Zayn and Niall stayed silent while I made my way over to Harry to hear his explanation. I didn't want to rush him... But all I wanted to know what about Louis.. Was he okay? Was he coming back? When?
