The Girl They Met Online [Editing]

Chapter 12: Wake Up

Niall's POV

I sigh and look at the car window, "Guys, I don't feel good" Harry looks at me, "Niall, are you okay? Are you feeling sick." I shake my head, "I'm not sick, I just feel horrible because of what we have been doing to Liam. We yelled at him, insulted him, and just ignored him." Big tears roll down my cheeks, "You guys might not feel guilty but Liam is my best friend, and I need to apologize to him."

Louis sighs, "Niall is right, we all need to apologize. We were really harsh, and we didn't even listen to Liam..."

Harry turns the car around, Zayn looks confused, "Where are we going?"

Harry looks straight at the road, "To apologize to Liam, he doesn't deserve any of the shit we have put him through, seriously." Zayn looks a bit upset, "So? He was still wrong, he yelled at me for what I did and the turned around and did the same exact thing!"

I get mad, "Zayn! Liam has been here for all of us, he's been here to set us straight when we're off task. And for a long time, he hasn't been the same...doesn't that concern you one bit? Liam is our back bone, and we are breaking him into small pieces..."

Zayn just shrugs like he doesn't care so I raise my voice, "He saved your life! After all the shit YOU put him through, he risked his life to save yours. He calls you his brother, he loves you more than he loves what he does! And you don't care that we are pushing Liam away!? I'm sorry Zayn you might not care but me, Louis, and Harry do. So when we apologize you can just be somewhere else because I want the old Liam back."

I lay back in my seat, and wait to get home.

As soon as we get home, I run in and call out, "Liam?" I don't get a response, but I look at the counter and see Liam's laptop. There is a note,

Guys please watch this video

-Liam Xx

So I call the lads over, and we all watch...well me, Louis, and Harry watch it. When we press play, Liam looks so unhealthy, he has dark circles under his eyes, he has dry tears on his face, and worst of all there are cuts all over him, on his neck and on his arms.

I listen closely to the video:

After it finsished, I am so confused...

"What does this mean?" I asked confusedly

Zayn has a worried look on his face, and runs to Liam room.

Zayn's POV

He didn't do it, please tell me Liam didn't do what I think he did. I run to his room, but the door is locked.

I bang on his door, "Liam!" There is no response, "Liam, please open the door!" I start to panic, and tears are running down my face. I bang the door open, and I see a horrible sight.

Blood droplets everywhere around the room, I see an empty bottle of vodka, a half drunken bottle of whiskey, pill bottles. Then I see Liam on his bed, he looks still...he isn't moving I run to his body, I try to shake him awake, "Liam it's time to wake up...Liam stop sleeping, wake up...Liam this isn't funny anymore, please. LIAM!" I run to the guys, "Guys, Liam...he isn't waking up!"

"WHAT!?" Niall, Harry, and Louis all say at the same time as they're running to Liam's room. They all stop when the look in, the see me holding Liam's lifeless body, and they also see the bottles, and blood too.

"T--this is bad...Harry get Niall outta here and call the ambulance." Louis screams out in horror, Harry does what he is told, but Niall won't budge he is looking at Liam's lifeless body and is crying.
