My Life Be Like... Who am I? (1D fan fic)

Chapter 11

Elena’s P.O.V

“Ssshhh, its OK Elena calm down. Take a deep breath it’s alright. Your safe nothing is going to hurt you. I’m here, I’ll look after you, I promise to protect you. Ok, I’ll protect you just like I do my own sisters, after all with Zayn being like a brother you are already like another sister to me. I promise you I’ll protect you, just calm down and tell me what’s got you so upset.” It was Lou out of everyone I didn't expect Louis to notice my exit let alone come after me. I feel safe in his arms; don’t get me wrong I feel safe with Zayn its just Lou has that big brother feel.

“That’s it just focus on your breathing, that’s a girl. Now do you want to tell me what’s got you so upset?”

I can’t tell him, can I? I trust him and all but he’ll laugh, just like Harry did when he found me the last time. I was so embarrassed, I had fallen asleep on the lounge watching a movie and the next thing I was being shook awake by Harry he just started laughing at me thinking that I was having a nightmare from watching a horror movie, I wish. But Lou’s different he won’t laugh, like he said I can tell him, he’s here to help me right?

“Promise not to laugh?” I questioned looking up at him.

“I promise no matter how funny, or crazy it is I won’t laugh. For something to upset you this much it can’t be funny.”

“Okay, it’s just whenever I hear the song tell me a lie and see bright lights like head lights it reminds me of the accident and I have flashbacks and it all reminds me that they are dead because of me.” I said as a single tear slid down my face. In all honesty I really do feel like it’s my fault my parents are dead. Because in a way I caused the accident.

“How is it your fault, the police have said this to you before and I’m going to say it again, it was the other drivers fault, they fell asleep at the wheel and were over the legal alcohol limit. They caused the accident that not only killed themselves but your parents, there was nothing that your dad or anyone could have done to prevent this from happening.” I guess when it’s put like that it wasn't my fault, but in reality I knew different.

“But I could have prevented the whole accident from happening. If only I hadn't wanted to go out for dinner none of this would have happened and they would still be here.” I struggled to keep myself composed.

“That’s not your fault, everyone takes a risk as soon as they get in a car. It just happened that your parents were one of those unlucky few who lost their lives from it. From what you've told me about them they wouldn't want you blaming yourself for their death. But I fully understand why you think that it’s your fault, but I promise you Elena that their death was not your fault. Besides had they not passed Zayn wouldn't have found out that he has another sister and you wouldn't have met me and the lads and have so many people that care and love you. Now I don’t want to hear or see of you blaming yourself for their death. Whenever you start to feel this way think of all the people who love you and just remember although I never met your parents I know they would be proud of you. Okay?”

"Okay, thanks, Lou.” when you put it like Lou just did, I really couldn't have done anything to stop the accident from happening.

"No problem, babe," Lou smiled sympathetically at me. He looked back towards the glass doors that I had run out of and he had ran through to find me. "Now what do you say about going back inside and enjoying the party? It's for you, after all," Louis grinned.

"Wait...it is?" I pretended to look confused, and I almost sputtered out laughing at Lou's face that was growing paler by the second.

"OH, UM, YEEEAHH...NOBODY TOLD YOU YET...ha...ha...well, SURPRISE!!! We threw you a surprise party to celebrate with your friends before you leave," Louis laughed a bit awkwardly. I rolled my eyes.
