~~~(Eleanor's P.O.V)~~~

My eyes scan the glowing blue flight monitor looking for a place to escape to. My hands shaking, my head throbbing, my stomach turning... Nothing feels right at the moment.

'Vegas - on time - departures at 3am'

Nah too flashy, plus I'm 18 and I'm not allowed to drink in America so not much I can do there.

'Hawaii - on time - departures at 1:30am'

Nah too expensive and romantic.. Im not in the mood to go bankrupt and watch couples make out thank you very much.

'Boston - on time - departures in 15 minutes'

Boston...home? Home. I grab my duffle off the floor and make a run to the ticket portals. People looking at me as I dash through the airport. 15 minutes?!? To buy a ticket, go through security and to make it on a plane?! Is that even possi-

"How may I help you ma'am" A perky red haired woman asks, giving me a strange look. Probably thinking that the sweaty,blood shot eyed girl in front of her is a lunatic of some kind. "I need 1 ticket to Boston" I franticly say as I look down at my phone. '12am' it reads.. I swear this is the only 24 hour airport in the world. I watch intently as she goes through files on her computer.

"Whats your name dear?" She asks with a kind smile across her face, relief shoots through my veins.

"Eleanor Jane Calder"

~~~( Louis' P.O.V)~~~

"WAIT UP!" Liam yells as he dashes out of the house behind me. "NO!" "Mate, if she wants you she would've stayed!" His words pierce through me, making me stop and turn around. I watch as he jogs over to me, ducking his head from the rain. "Common lad, you cheated on the girl with her sister! You didn't expect her to stay did you?"

I bite down on my lip as I look down at the ground. "I didn't cheat on her." I growl towards him, making him throw his hands up in surrender. "Thats not what it looked-" "I KNOW WHAT IT BLOODY LOOKED LIKE!" I yell as I glance up at him and lock my eyes on his fearful ones, "She invited me over saying El and her wanted to have dinner just the three of us, I get here and she leads me to my bedroom and locks the door. I asked her what she was doing but she didn't answer, instead she threw me onto my bed and started kissing me, unbuckling my jeans while making her way down my neck. I tried to pry her off and all she did was handcuff me to the headboard and stick a towel in my mouth. I tried everything I could but it was no use, she's as heavy as a freakin hippo." I shake my head, "After she got what she wanted, she threatened that if I said anything to El that she would end all of our careers."

Liam doesn't say anything, and neither do I. Thats the truth, nobody understands that I would never want to hurt El in that way. I look back up at Liam and watch as he pulls his keys out of his pocket, "Common lad, were going to the airport."

~~~(Harry's P.O.V)~~~

I watch the blood ooze out of my wrist as I clench the razor blade in my hand. Even though Eleanor wasn't technically mine, I lost the best thing that I've ever had and this scar might as well be my last memory of her. I wince at the pain spreading throughout my arm as red darts of blood crash onto the white tile.

"Hey Harry have you-" The bathroom door opens as Niall waltzes on in, stoping in his steps when he see's the red covered tile, his eyes warily moving to my blood gushing wrist. "You really loved her didnt you?" He asks. "Yes." I shamefully admit, tears turning my vision blurry as I crash my face onto Niall's shoulder. His hand patting me on the back and pulling me into a Horan Hug.

~~~(Zayn's P.O.V)~~~

"I love you" Perrie squeaks over the phone, being the adorable person she is. "I love you too." I smile as I continue to play fruit ninja on my iPad. "So hows Eleanor doing?" Her question stops my heart, as well as my fruit ninja game. "Um...she's swell." I lie, hoping she didn't hear my hesitation. "Swell?" "Yeah, swell." Its silent and awkward for a few moments. "Well thats good to know, I got to go I'll see you around, love you!" Perrie rushes, and with that the line clicks, leaving me alone with my thoughts in my room.

"I hope she's swell" I mutter as I flop onto my bed, stress over whelming my body.

~~~(Eleanor's P.O.V)~~~

I grasp my boarding pass as I dash through the terminals,"5 minutes left till Gate 16, Boston Flight takes off" the intercom lady says, my adrenaline hitting the ceiling. "WAIT!" I scream, nearly tripping over myself as my heel twists. Note to self- Don't wear heels and run in an airport at same time.

As I approach the gate, a voice calls out to me yelling,"Come on love we wont leave without you!" I smile as I slow down and reach the attendant and show her my crumbled up boarding pass. "Are you ready to go to Boston Miss Calder?" I laugh, "I wouldn't have ran if I wasn't." She laughs and leads me down the aisle, onto the plane, and to my seat.

I flop back and drop my duffle under the seat in front of me, completely relaxed and ready to get out of here.

"Excuse me?" A female voice beams, making my eyes flash open. I feel my eyes widen at the sight of the unmistakable Megan Haywire. "Ello.." I nervously say, hoping she doesn't recognize me."Eleanor,Eleanor,Eleanor." She repeats a few times while making a tisking sound. Well, there goes the hope of not recognizing me..bye dreams of happiness, nice knowing you while you lasted!

"Fancy meeting you here." She evilly smirks. I fidget in my seat as she leans closer towards me, personally I'd rather be sitting next to a fat man that just recently got sprayed by a skunk than next to her.

"We'll aren't you two just adorable!" A recognizable voice sarcastically says, not having to turn my head to know who it is.

~~~(Niall's P.O.V)~~~

I slowly bandage Harry's wrist as he whimpers in pain. Not pain from the cuts, pain from his broken heart. I knew from the minute he laid eyes on Eleanor that he loved her, I mean common he poked her butt before she even awoke from her sleep when she first arrived!!

I give him a positive smile, hoping he will cheer up a bit. But as he looks up at me, his face wet from tears, I know thats not going to happen. "Common lad lets get you to bed, I'll clean up all of this when your situated."

~~~(Zayn's P.O.V)~~~

I slowly push open Eleanor's bedroom door, bed dampened of the smell of tears, closet empty, half written schedule on paper... it's never going to be the same anymore.

You screwed up Louis, not only your life but ours as well.

~~~(Liam's P.O.V)~~~

I drive off from the airport, feeling like batman,saving the day for Louis the Tommo Tomlinson!! I can't help but smile as I imagine the Prius I'm driving to morph into the Batmobile with fire blazing behind me.

"Don don don-don BATMAN!!!!" I yell as I speed up a little bit on the freeway, the thug life bringing my senses to life. '90 mph' ... Better slow down... So long thug life..

~~~(Louis' P.O.V)~~~

I smirk as I sit down next to Eleanor, crushing her between me and Megan. "How'd you find me?" El whispers into my ear, in an agitated tone of voice. "Vegas is too flashy,Hawaii is too romantic for one girl, and after a long day sometimes a person just can't wait to burst through their front door of HOME." I whisper back, much emphasis on 'home'.

Eleanor bites her lip and looks down at her lap, twiddling her fingers, knowing that for her, Meg and I, that this is going to be a long flight. "You got me." She glares into my eyes, though as I look past the hate mask, I see a girl who's dying on the inside. "I know I did." I smile, wrapping my arm around her shoulder, her body tensing from my touch.

'If she wants you she would've stayed..' Liam's words ring through my mind as I look down at the girl who I love, who is looking out the window, not loving me back. Maybe I really did screw up this time.
