*Louis's POV*

"She's so young..." I spoke, "I'm glad Zayn decided not to shoot her. She would be a good addition to our team."

"I already fvcking told you. We're not bringing her into this," Harry snarled at me.

"Hey, mate, you said we couldn't bring her in as one of the girls, but who said she could be an addition to our team? It's only five of us, we could use one more," I suggested, quirking an eyebrow. "Plus, she has more than enough background training. It would also guarantee her not ratting us out to the cops." I twirled a cigarette within my finger tips.

"Lou, man. I just, I can't see her dealing with the shlt we do. Not being a nympho or one of us. She gets too attached to things," Harry paused, "You can see it with her job. You can't have emotions with what we do." 

"Alright, but once Zayn and the rest of them get their hands on her, remember that I gave you the option to make her one of us," I said roughly, taking a drag from my cigarette. 

"I won't let Zayn touch her," He spoke sternly. 

"I haven't seen you get so protective with somebody since... Never mind," I stopped myself from aggravating H even more. "But hey, once you stormed out I got her number, so here you go mate. If you're so set on protecting her from Zayn you're going to need it," I passed him a napkin with the words "Scar - (cell number here)" written on it, neatly in cursive. I chuckled and took the napkin, walking away from Louis.

02:25 (Monday)

I stumbled into my flat, dropping my tote on the couch and walking to the kitchen to grab a cup of peppermint tea. Once I finished boiling the water and making the tea I went and sat on the couch. Pulling out my notebook from my tote, I reviewed my forensics homework, and completed it within the next about half hour. I put it all away and turned on my tv, opening netflix and deciding to watch Criminal Minds. I pulled out my phone to see that I had a text from an unknown number, two texts from Dan, and a text from Gemma, an old family friend. I slid my phone open and clicked on Dan's text first. 

From: Dann-y O !

  - Hey, just making sure you got out alright and it wasn't a repeat of Thursday night. Text me whenever x

  - I sent that like two hours ago and you haven't responded, but you're a tough girl... Hope you're okay. 

I quickly replied saying that I was home safe, deciding that I was not going to tell him about the Harry and Louis situation just yet. 

From: Gemmy <33

  - Hey B! I heard about the incident at the cafe. Are you alright? We have to make plans when you come back to HC! Miss you lots xxxxx

I giggled at Gemma calling me B and remembered the whole "Queen B" nicknames we had for each other, I replied saying that I missed her lots and that I was alright. 

From: Unknown

  - Hello. It was lovely seeing you at the coffee shop. -H x

My heart instantly sped up by 100 beats. I know I gave my number to Louis, but who was I to know he'd give it to Harry? What the hell do I say?

To: Unknown

  - Hi... I know who you are... I mean, I remember you... I mean... You know what I mean. 

I sent that, I locked all the doors to my flat and set the alarm. I took my phone and crawled into bed. Shaking at the thought of what Harry would reply. I kept my phone on loud as I began to fall asleep, after all I did have class at 09:00 tomorrow. 

08:58 

Oh my god. Oh my god. My stupid alarm didn't go off and I have to be at uni in two minutes. There was no way in hell I'd make it in time. Even if I ran out of my house right now, it takes me 8 minutes to walk there. 

I threw out some Nike Free-Run leggings and an oversized pale purple t-shirt and some black converse and ran out the door. Not caring about how bad my face or hair looked right now. I stuck my hand in my bad to grab my phone as I checked it I realized I forgot to charge it so it only had 48%. I unlocked it to see I had two messages from unknown and one from Dan just saying he was glad I was okay.

From: Unknown

  - Took you long enough. I want to talk. When are you available? 

  - I'm assuming you fell asleep. 

I quickly typed up a response, still clearly fearful of this man.

To: Unknown

  - What makes you think I'm going to meet up with somebody who robbed my cafe? Are you insane? One of your guys almost shot me. I don't have a death wish. Goodbye, Harry. 

I shut off my phone as I entered the classroom, realizing I was only 12 minutes late. I took my seat next to my friend, Ed. I smiled at him, taking out my notebook and following along to what my teacher said. 

18:49

I walked into Platinum, looking around, hoping to spot the crew, yet none of them were to be seen anywhere. I shrugged, making my way to the bar, and asking for a drink. After having multiple girls throw themselves at me, I settled on Nadine. We were walking towards the back as I heard the voices of Louis, Niall, and Zayn speaking from one of the other rooms. I put my finger on Nadine's lips, signaling her to be quiet. I pushed my ear towards the door. 

"...Well Harry isn't going to do anything about her, so we better," Zayn spoke, rather aggressively. 

"And if you heard her background in fighting, you'd definitely want her to join us," Louis said. "I think she said she's been fighting for 12 years. For an 18 year old, that would have been longer than all of us..."

"I don't think Harry would like this, guys," Ni spoke up. 

"Well, Ni, she knows all our alias's and she knows  what we look like. She could give us away in the blink of an eye. Not to mention she knows 3/5 of our real names," Zayn said, trying to convince Niall. 

I could feel my temper rising, I checked my messages with Scarlette to see that she had still not replied. I yanked Nadine's arm, throwing her into the room closest to the guys and slamming her down on the mattress.
