Leave (L.H fanfic>)

Eight.

My stomach hurt from all my nerves. I had a major headache that was hurting like hell, and I couldn't stop my uneven breathing. Not to mention it's freezing cold outside, yet I'm burning up.

Turning around I looked back into the window of the restaurant. Calum and Ashton no longer sitting at the booth. I wish I would have let him come with me. Then I probably wouldn't be going through this. Standing alone in the darkness in New Orleans. Great, sighing I quickly ran towards my apartment to scarred stop. Even if I felt like my lungs were about to collapse.

"Carter?" Ben asked as I slammed the door shut. Leaning against the door I slowly pushed my hair out of my face.

"Please tell me that was a nightmare." I whispered to myself.

"What happened?" Ben asked rushing over to me.

"Nothing..just there was a weird boy on the street." I shook my head like it was no big deal.

"This is New Orleans, but are you okay?" He asked looking me up and down.

"Oh, yeah. I'm fine." I laughed a little pushing my self off the door and walking towards the kitchen.

Opening the fridge I grab the apple juice and pour myself a cup. For some reason I feel like I shouldn't Ben what has been going on. It feels private, plus he wouldn't believe me anyways.

"Hey C, I have a question." He stopped me from going into my room as he grabbed my wrist.

"Yeah?" I said looking at him.

"What would you do if you found out someone was cheating on you?" He asked closing his eyes and staring at the floor. A pained look on his face. Oh my god...

"Oh Ben...she didn't." I said my eyes wide as I stared at the sad boy.

"S-She did..I was going over to her place this morning to give her breakfast. And when I got there, she was in the shower...so I waited on her bed....Than when she came out, s-she wasn't alone." His eyes were watery as I pulled him in for a hug. His arms wrapped around my waist as he cried into my shoulder.

"Ben, I'm so sorry.." I said not sure what to do, this has never happened to him.

"I loved her.." He said sitting on the couch. When the words slipped from his mouth I froze. He loved her.

It was silent for a few minutes before an idea popped into my head. Smiling I rushed to the freezer, grabbing the gallon of rocky road ice cream. Opening the cabinet I took out two spoons. Rushing back over to Ben I flopped onto the couch.

"Here, let me show you how to fix a broken heart." Opening the ice cream lid I dug the spoon in taking a bit.

After watching two movies on Netflix and eating a gallon of ice cream with bed I was exhausted. Standing from the couch I picked up our mess taking it to the trash. Groaning when the trash was full. Taking the trash bag I tie it up walking towards the door. Walking towards the elevator with the trash I sighed. This has been the craziest day of my life. Seeing a nonhuman, not being able to leave, dealing with a best friend breakup. Could it get much worse?

Ding.

The doors opened to the elevator and I stepped out. It was almost midnight by now and it was pitch black outside. The street was silent, the only light coming from street lights. Throwing the trash in the dumpster I began to walk
back to the elevator. Pressing the button the elevator doors slowly opened. Stepping in I sighed rubbing my eyes. Looking over in the corner I screamed. There he stood Luke. His eyes black, in a blink of an eye he was pinning me against the wall. Just like in my dream. I could feel it again, his deep breaths on my neck. The growling he made scarred me the most.

"L-Luke, please stop. Don't hurt me. I won't leave, I won't. " I said quickly. Tears were streaming down my face, and it was hard to breath. It was as if the elevator had stopped, and I was stuck. I didn't move as his hands slowly slid down my arms. Stopping at my wrist.

"Don't leave." He said staring at me. I gasped as his eyes turned a bright blue before the elevator doors opened and he was gone. Gasping for air I fell to the floor. Tears running down my face, I was scarred. What did I tell him?
