the book of Deadwater (a one direction fanfic)

Chapter 1

Louis POV

I texted Katie regularly from that day forth. Niall was soon on the missing people's list. Everyone else was panicking, but I wasn't. No one suspected anything. I was normally self absorbed in my childish ramblings and sassy moods. Truth is I would have pretended to care if they had pretended to care when I suggested Niall was dead. Harry at one point, three days after the disappearance, called me a soulless bitch. I told him to bug off. The replied if I disappeared would you give a shit. I quite simply said no and continued on with life.

Katie and I kept in touch like I said but she never told me where they were staying. One night I got a call. It was from Nialler.

"Katie's dead Lou"

"What the fuck man you don't just say shit like that. I nearly had a heart attack."

"turn on the news if you don't believe me. She's the blonde with the cheek bones. I just saw it. Your the only person who'd care"

I set the phone down with out hanging up and turned on the TV in my room. The news was on. The news anchor with the dark brown hair was talking about traffic. Then the picture flashed.

She was beautiful to say the least. Completely stunning. She had long curly blonde hair and sharp cheek bones formed to a fawless smile. Her blue eyes twinkled even in the picture.

"still no news on the high schooler who was found dead behind a seven eleven just north of London. 17 year old Katie Po as she was later identified was brutally stabbed and left alive bleeding to death. The perimedic pronounced her dead when they arrived. In other news could famous pop star Niall Horan be running from fame, more of that mystery continues after this"

I turned off the TV and raised the phone to my mouth. I had no clue what to say.

"it was the people who want me dead Louis. I have no protection." Niall snapped not even giggling at his dirty joke.

"why'd they kill her?"

"she saved me from the black van. They knew that"

"oh..." I liked Katie it was awful to find out she was dead. But I never met her. I knew what shed do though.

"Niall you've got to kill your self."

He was quiet on the other end.

"The whole point." I continued, "RH. as in shelock. Look it up"

Niall silently did so. The a long ohhh came from his lips. "I see"

"smart right?"

"how does it work though. Pretending to die"

"you just uh-" I honestly didn't know. That episode hadn't come out yet.

"I'll let you sleep in that"

And the line went dead.

Harry walked in, "I'm sorry for calling you a soulless monster. I just miss Niall so much!"

"I'm sorry for being a soulless monster. It's just I said he was dead and no one believed me."

"we just didn't want him to be dead."

I nodded and looked at the floor. "well yeah sorry." Harry was honestly devastated I could tell. I reached out and he excepted my hug. I rocked him a bit as I heard sniffles.

"Harry I'm sorry" I gulped "I think it may be, he may-"

Harry punched me from the hug position then retracted and faced me "Louis Tomlinson don't you dare say anything of that matter again."
