Niall woke up from his nap, feeling slightly relived Zayn was still asleep. Throughout his entire nap he couldn't stop wondering what this mysterious X guy kept sending him the other day. Would Zayn really lie right to his face? Surely he had a reason behind it, Niall wondered. He thought Zayn had done the deed, but Alice was hinting that she had killed Misa. Maybe Zayn didn't want Niall to worry, maybe that's why he lied to his face. But at what cost would a simple lie lead to? Niall knows the truth, but Zayn doesn't know that Niall knows.

He rose slowly from his position, untangling his legs and Zayn's arm around him. Niall smiled slightly at the ridiculous position they had slept it. Zayn always had his body wrapped up against Niall's, like he was afraid he'd run away from him again. Niall thought it was cute, but his stomach had other issues. He was hungry as usual, and Liam was already up; surely it wouldn't lead to jealously if  he asked Liam to come with him to breakfast rather than Zayn right?

"Liam, I'm hungry." Niall said simply, Liam looked down at him, placing his book to the side and sighing. Everything morning Niall would whine to Liam he was hungry, and being the early bird Liam was; he was forced to take him out to breakfast. "Yeah sure, but let's hurry. The last thing I need is a jealous Zayn." Liam states, as he quickly pulls on a shirt and walks Niall out of the cabin.

Niall held his hand out for Liam to hold onto, Liam reluctantly took his hand into his. Even though Niall was dating Zayn he couldn't help but fall hopelessly in love with Niall. Though, he had a secret little crush on his dark-green haired friend Ciel. But Liam would never tell him that, it would only freak him out. Considering Zayn would kill all of Niall's friends eventually. Unless Alice beats him to the punch.

"Liam are you okay? You seem... off." Niall asked Liam with slight worry in his voice.

Liam thought this was cute so a gave a simple chuckle. "Yes I'm fine little Nialler." He teased, in response Niall just gave him a little glare. As unconvincing as Niall thought Liam was being, he took it anyways and grabbed his food from the cafeteria. The day felt different, not like the vivid dream he had the other day. But Niall felt like something was slightly off today. What could it be?

Niall thought nothing of it after some time and sat down with Liam at the usual isolated table. "So what's the plan for today." Niall questioned randomly, as he took a bite out of his apple.

"Hmmm." Liam hummed, thinking of a plan. Liam knows that today Zayn is going to try and kill Scarlett today, but Liam would never tell Niall that. It would only bum him out. "Let's go hike the trail, yeah?" Liam proposed softly.

Niall knew the trail was about two hours to complete, but would Niall really walk the whole way? Niall needed to eat at least every hour or so, on a good day that is. As excruciating as the experience might be, he didn't want to seem selfish, so he agreed to Liam's idea. "That's great Liam!" Niall cheered falsely.

Liam laughed and held Niall's hand again as they walked back to the cabin. They were carrying with their usual ridiculous conversation, from Liam setting up Niall's wedding dress, to Niall strangling him in his sleep. That is until, Alice decided to rain down on their parade. "Hey cunts." Alice greeted happily. 

Niall snorted in disgust, why was Alice bothering him again? What has Niall ever done to Alice? "Alice what are YOU doing here." Niall rolled his eyes, as Liam stood protectively next to Niall's side. "I was heading to the cafeteria, I can't always have human flesh as breakfast you know?" Alice smiled maliciously. 

This made Niall cringe, as he imagined Alice ripping people open and eating them alive. He shuddered and hid behind Liam in fear. "You can leave now, bitch." Liam clicked his fingers in front of Alice's face and walked off with Niall next to him. He can't believe Alice said that Niall, how can she be so exile, did she not have any morals? As disdainful as Alice may seem, he has leave the death of Alice to Zayn; he left Liam specific orders not to kill Alice unless otherwise told to do so.
