Taking Risks

S I X : EXECUTION

AVERY'S P.O.V.

It's already 5 pm.

Only three more hours away from the concert. I peer out of my window, trying to see if they are already rehearsing. The boys are already there but they are just going around the stadium trying to familiarize it. "Margaux" Matt called out for me. "Yep?" I asked as I looked behind me. "Change clothes. Now" he says words as if he's a dominant. I hastily stood up, grabbed my clothes and directly went into the bathroom.

After attaching the I.D. to the lace, I grabbed a silver hair-tie and I placed my hair up into a ponytail.

When I got out, Levi was the only one left. "Hey..nervous?" he asked as soon as our eyes met. I nodded with a sly smile. "Don't be so tensed.. Hi. I'm Levi, nice to be your partner in crime" He smiled a wide grin. I shook his hand and silently fixed my bag. "You can talk to me.. I'm nice" he added. I don't know if I should look at him or just disregard him..

"Look at me, Margaux" he snaps. I looked behind me and he's towering over me. His hands protruded towards me-giving me a slight doubt that he's going to punch or take advantage of me any minute now; but he grabbed my right hand and pulled me up from my sitting position. "Don't be afraid. I was like you, once" ... "really...?... why did you..... stay?" he smiled. "Because they're my family now." I was about to ask him more questions but Matt came in again and said; "it's showtime"

I was waiting awkwardly behind the stage. Hoping that no one would ever talk to me. The concert's encore is happening and I need to stand my guard. All I hear are muffled voices and screaming all across the stadium. Some people are too busy to look at me, it's weird. They should get the idea that the boys will be taken away from them soon...

After a few songs, they started to say good bye to their fans. 'Finally.' I thought. I stood beside one of the sides of the stairs to see the boys. "Margaux!" somebody screamed on my left ear. Where the heck is that coming from?!

Oh.

I forgot that I was wearing an earpiece. That is connected to the eight of us. "Don't... Don't get Harry first. Spy on where he's going...when you guys are already alone, go ahead. Do your thing" "O-oh-kay" I muttered as five lovely boys went down from the stage. They all look so dreamy.....until Zayn threw me his wet shirt.

"Take care of that, will ya?" he said with a irritant expression. What the fuck?! I didn't sign up for this! "Stop it, Zayn!" Harry called as he took the shirt from me. "I'll take care of this.. I apologize for Zayn's attitude" he said to me. "S-sure... It's fine" I managed to talk back. "Fuck you, Styles!" Zayn screamed. Harry looks worried; then angry at the same time. "You guys are so childish" Niall said. "You obviously pushed me awhile ago, on stage!" Louis replied to him. Oh No.. They're fighting. "Sorry.." he tells me silently while searching for my eyes. I nodded at him. He smiled and walked with the boys. How can I do this..? How can I do this to Harry..?

I tried to tail at him. Louis pushed Niall, then Niall punched him. "Ow!" Louis reacted. "Stop It. Shit! Just stop!" Liam tried to break the fight. They just gave each other death stares until they went to their separate ways. I wonder why most of the people around us wouldn't go near the boys. Maybe they're scared. Well they should be.. I'm already scared of them. I still followed Harry secretly along the corridor. He went into a room. By himself. I waited on the janitor's closet. A few meters away from the door he just went in. "Matt?" I tried to call out. "Margaux.. It's good that they're fighting. We are on our way to the airport. The boys are already going out to fetch One Direction. Knock on Harry's door, get him, go to the back entrance, meet Levi and I will see you soon." I took a deep breath and I casually knocked on Harry's door.

"What!?" he asked as he opened up the door. As he noticed that it was me who knocked, his face expression suddenly changed. "Oh.. it's you. I'm sorry. I thought you were Zayn.." I smiled at him. "Are you ready?.. The management asked me to bring you to the airport as soon as possible." He looks tired. "Yeah.. uhm.. But my clothes are in the hotel.. so.." "Don't worry about that. We already got it awhile ago" "Oh.. okay.." He looked behind him, grabbed his phone and then we both walked awkwardly along the corridor. He is a slow walker. I need him to be there without anyone noticing. "I have never seen you here before.." "You mean the tour?.. Oh.. I work for Roger's Centre." I said as I was picking the pace of my walk. Thankfully, he caught up to my brisk walking. "Too bad I wouldn't see you in New Jersey" I think that New Jersey will be their next stop. I let him enter a door that leads to the back exit. "Wait, where are we going?" He asked. Avery. Do. Not. Stammer.... "Oh, we're going to pass through the back entrance. There are less people here. Some people are waiting on the entrance. But I doubt that they wouldn't know that you are going to pass here" "Our fans are like FBI agents.. I once saw our passport pictures on my timeline. I was like, 'What the hell, how did they could've possibly done that!'" He was laughing. His smile is warm enough to make me trust him.. just like how I trusted Chandler.

We continued walking and then we got out in the back lot. How did they do it? How did they manage to keep this area clear?! "There's the limo. Get in" I told him. We got in, and then Levi looked at the rearview mirror and smiled at me before driving towards the airport. "Wait.. aren't we going to wait for the rest of the boys?" Harry asked me. "Don't worry. They'll be there" I assured him. After a quiet ride to the airport, we made our way to the jet. I thought of something.. why would Harry trust a stranger?.. Am I that sincere-looking?! Yep. I look smart with these spectacles but heck, I don't believe it. I was about to sink in the whirlpool that is the dark / good side of me. I shouldn't do this. I could take Harry and then send them away somewhere and ask him to protect me....

As if he'll do it. I need to stay tough. For me. For Chandler. For whatever the fuck is this.

I guided Harry to the private jet and he saw the boys there waiting for him inside. Somebody took my arm and lead me downstairs. "Good job!" Matt congratulates me. "Heh-e" I laughed slightly. "So, where are we going?" I asked him. "Stockholm... Sweden." "Then what?" "We'll finally see the boss, Margaux. You can finally thank him" "What are we going to do with them?.." "They'll never know where we're going. Just answer New Jersey if they asked. But if they ever got the idea, Plan A will happen. Do whatever you need to shut them up" I just nodded at him. Me, Matt, Dmitri, Levi and One Direction are in the jet. Two are pilots and there are some stewardesses and the rest of the guys that are with are going to catch next day's flight so they could see the reaction of the people without the boys. I know that around this time, they are already starting to panic.

One Direction are quiet. Louis is just checking his phone. Too bad he couldn't get any signal.

Before one of them could be called by their management, the airplane that we're in took off. I was seated next to Levi. Still wearing our dope-ass uniforms. "I need to take these glasses off. It's bugging me for hours!" I whisper-screamed. Levi laughed at me silently. "Guys, apologize to one another. Please." Liam caught all of our attention. Zayn just listened to his iPod while Niall just played with Harry's hair. They are like kids when fighting.

"You can change clothes in the Airport. Or.. the jet. Just when we're already in Sweden. Or Else, our plan would be compromised" I nodded at Levi. I can't wait to land.

[ ]'s P.O.V.

"Why did you need to do that?! C'mon!" I laughed at him. "I need something from her, Chandler" I smirked. "Tell me." "You'll find out-soon." Chandler slammed the door behind me just after I said that to him.
