Night Changes- Larry Stylinson- Sequel to Thinking Out Loud

Untitled Part 18

Louis POV

I've spent two nights on this bed with no shirt, just my jeans, with no food or water. My mother’s body is still in the corner of the room as a reminder. I'm absolutely freezing and can't feel my body. Ben, my father and Max have been in twice, both times beating me until I pass out. I am in so much pain. I just flit in and out of consciousness. Ben hasn't raped me again, thank god. Not that I'm aware of anyway. I'm losing hope that Harry will find me. If they were tracking me it wouldn't have taken this long for them to find me. I can feel my body slowly giving up, I'm trying to hold on but as the hours pass, I slip further and further into darkness. I will eventually fall asleep and never wake up, I can't handle much more.

I'm woken completely out of my daze to yelling outside the door. Jason, Ben, Max and my Dad come bursting into the room. I don't know if I can take another beating. My body can't take much more.

"How do you know Ben?" Max asks, he sounds really panicked.

"I'm a shady fucking cop Max. I have my sources" Ben yells back at him.

“Maybe it’s a set up” My dad yells

“Even so I’m not risking it” Ben says.

“Just leave him to die Ben” Max says.

“Yeah cause that worked really well last time, didn’t it” Ben spits.

“Besides we still need him as ransom for Harry, so he will sign custody of Aston over to me” My dad yells at Max.

My wrists are untied and I'm hauled up into Ben’s arms. I scream in pain but manage to pull the gag out of my mouth.

"Your security and the police are planning to swoop in this morning Louis. How they found us I have no idea, I was hoping for a little more time" Ben says spitting in my face.

Oh my god thank god. Harry and Drew found me they are coming.

"Where are we going to go?" Max asks

"Don't worry we will be gone before they get here, but I'm thinking we don't really need you anymore, your just in the way Max and your starting to piss me off" Ben says.

 He is holding me so tight by the arm. I see him grab a gun out of his hoodie and point it at Max.

"You’re pathetic if you think Harry will ever love you, especially after you tortured and beat his fiancé" Ben laughs. 

He pulls, the trigger and I try to scream but nothing comes out as Max falls to the ground covered in blood. I watch as his eyes glaze over and he stops breathing in front of me. Tears roll down my face as I'm dragged out of the room. I try to push past the pain and struggle to break free of Bens hold. Maybe I can make a run for it, although I can hardly keep myself up let alone run, but I can't let them take me again. Not when Harry is so close.

“Fuck Ben you can’t just kill everyone in sight” My dad spits.
