Chapter four

"WHERE WERE YOU?!?!" Joseph yelped. My eyes filled up with tears and one dripped down my cheek. Kian and Jc run over and said to Joseph that they could hear him from over there. People were looking as they walked past, trying to make it discreet. My phone vibrated and again 'echo' played. Jc spotted that he was my wallpaper and so did Joe. This time it was a phone number. 'Unknown number' it read. I pressed green and slowly moved the phone to my ear.

"Hello?"
P: "Hello, Louisa. This is the police."
"Ok, whats the problem?"

The seven boys were all looking at me concerned.

P: Its your mum. She has been invloved in a house fire, and so has your brother. Unfortunatley, your brother died immediatley and your mum is in hospital, were not sure where her situation is at the moment."
"T-t-t-thankyou for telling me. Im going to come home now. Ill be about an hour." I could hardly get my words out.

I stared into thin air and started crying. I walked up to Jc and hugged him. "We need to go to mine, now." All of the boys looked gobsmacked when I told them the news. We all got on the next tube to Victoria and then caught a train to Canterbury. We then started to walk to my house, I looked behind me and lipped 'sorry' to Joseph. He smiled. I grabbed Jc's hand.

When we finally reached my house, there were 3 fire engines and 2 police cars. The ambulance had already gone. A police officer starting walking towards us and told me that I might have to go in a care home, she then comforted me. I said to all the boys that I havnt spoken to my dad in 5 years so if my mum doesnt pull through I will have to go into a home. The police also told me that everything in my room and all my clothes have been burnt so all i own now is what I have on me. All of my other family live 6 hours away and they dont have the time, space or money to care for me.

Connor, Joseph, Kian, Sam, Ricky, Trevor and Jc told me that they must go soon, to get back to their hotel. Ricky added that they will come and see me tomorrow. Still overwhelmed, I told them that I needed to go and see my mum in hospital, too. Sam looked very concerned and offered to come with me, however I declined his offer. I told them that I just want to be alone with mum. All the boys gave me their numbers therefore I added them on my contacts. I made my way off to the hospital and the boys hopped in the nearest taxi back to London.

Although, I still have more questions to ask them.
1) why are they here?
2) why were they waiting in the Dungeons?
3) why are they all being so kind to me?
