That snapped Harry out of it quickly. He jerked away from me and I shivered at the loss of contact . Then Zayn and Harry began yelling things about how Louis shouldn't have been left alone and if Niall was here none of this would have happened while I just sat there stunned and wondering how such a romantic and perfect moment could be happening one moment and then something so devastating and terrifying could be taking place the next. Zayn was pointing and stuttering;  I'd never seen him like this. He's always so poised and tough and intimidating but now he looked downright mortified. Whatever he was yelling out Harry wasn't listening. Instead he was scowling at Zayn and I could tell he was just as confused and worried as everyone else; which scared the crap out of me because he was after all the one in charge. If Harry didn't know what to do next then we were all doomed.

"Ella!" Harry was calling out to me from where he stood in the grass next to Zayn. I got to my feet and began to make my way to where they were and then they both started to run. I followed behind them beginning  to panic and worry that something or someone was chasing us or that they may be planning to leave me or run me into some trap. And then everything became clear as we all suddenly stopped running and skid up to the edge of the lake. The dirt where we stood had been dug into and  large footprints covered the earth leading to a stream that fed into the lake. The stream was flowing quick and rather dangerously over rocks and logs and sticks of all sorts.  Harry came a bit closer to the lakes edge and traced his hands over the clothe of a sock that Louis had been wearing.

 Looking from Harry to the damp fabric in his hand, and then to Zayn there was only one thing on my mind. Louis had drown; that or disappeared. As it sunk in and hit home that I'd never see him again I began to sob. Harry sat at the Lakes edge for a long time just playing with the little piece of fabric and starring at the cold water. Then I heard it; first tiny little hiccups and gasps for air and then full on sobbing. Harry's shoulder heaved up and down in time with his dramatic howls. He was angry, I could tell. I could see it in the way his fist were clenched and now he was begining to lift rocks from their place in the sand and throw them into the Lake. My crying stopped as I watched Harry and then I felt a strong pair of hands cup my shoulders and lead me away from the lake and Harry; Zayn.

ZAYNS POV

"It's alright. Harry will be alright Ella." She looked a mess. It was terrible what had happened and I knew that as hard as it was for Harry and I it was even harder for Ella. I hated that she had to see him this way; so angry and bitter and worn out. He was supposed to be her comfort and here I was holding her in my lap while he tossed rocks into the lake and screamed Louis name over and over again. I didn't want him to scare her, so I had taken her. I had lead her back to where we had set up camp and then started a second fire to keep her warm until I could come and be with her. I didn't know how she felt about me being so close with her...she had always seemed a little afraid of me.

"Zayn," Her voice came out raspy and horse from all the crying.

"Zayn, When will Harry be back?" She looked so little and vulnerable in my big arms and I almost felt bad that Harry had even put her through all this. I half frowned half smiled at her and then opened my mouth to answer.

"Soon, Ella." She sat up so her head was no longer on my shoulder and locked her gaze straight ahead on the tree she and Harry had been in when the accident had happened. Her head had made my shoulder numb and so I stretched and then crossed my arms over my chest. Ella was still sat on my legs looking at the tree. I tried looking at her but she avoided my gaze. She reminded me alot of my girlfriend back home, Tasha. Tasha was strong willed and innocent just as Ella was. She had always hated that I had been friends with Harry and hated it even more once I told her I was leaving to go help him with a project for awhile; she hadn't known that project would include kidnapping a girl her age and picking up a few jail charges on the way.
