Escape {Louis Tomlinson - AU}

housemates.

Chapter 3.

"Miss-" he began.
I put my hand out in front of him, cutting him off. "Call me Harlow. The name's Harlow Shaw."
"Okay.. Well Harlow. I don't know why you're interrogating me right now but I'm just as clueless as you are" The British boy informed me. Since he brought up the topic about being on this island, I've been bombarding him with questions. More likely than not, he probably finds me annoying because I was asking questions as if we were in a courtroom and I was the lawyer and he was the victim on the stand. He had a point though, there was no reason for me to be doing this cause in all actuality, he had the same information about this situation as I did. "I'm Louis Tomlinson by the way" he said, causing my mind to throw the thoughts I had to the back of my head.

Just as I opened my mouth to say something, a hologram of an official (I'm guessing) flashed before our eyes causing the whole island to go silent. "Good Morning Passengers" he greeted.

Is he finally going to tell us that we can leave this place?

"As you know due to the whole overpopulation crisis, President Hamilton has ordered us, the government, to develop a plan to help deal with this dilemma. Now because of this, all of you will be part of this project." Whoops. Looks like I jinxed it. Though, It's safe to say that everyone here objected; I mean who wouldn't? No one even got a chance to tell their families goodbye. The whole island was now filled with voices protesting to the fresh news just given to us. "There will be other experiments happening through out the whole country, this isn't just the only one. You will be living here in this community, you will be able to do whatever you do on a normal basis: go to work, spend time with friends but only if you abide by the rules. Those who do not will be severely punished." He finished his speech then he disappeared just like that.

I looked at Louis and noticed that he had the same look on his face everyone had: a look of rage and disappointment. His face was contorted into a look of anger, his hands closed into fists yet his eyes led you to believe otherwise. They were full of grief.

A voice boomed across the whole island, "Please fall in line in front of the booths antecedent to where the baggage area was and follow the instructions given to you by the flight attendant ladies." This voice, that sounded much like the man in the hologram ordered sternly.

I picked up my bag from the ground in front of me and my eyes searched for my dark haired best friend. I felt two hands on my shoulders. "There you are! Dude, I was looking for you!" Landyn exclaimed worry dripping from her words.
"Sorry" I sheepishly replied. I looked over at Louis who was still standing next to me, his eyes staring off into the distance. "Oh! This is Louis, Louis this is Landyn, my best friend" I introduced the two, snapping Louis out of his thoughts.

Landyn grabbed Louis's and my wrist and started taking us to the back of the line, "Hey Louis, Nice to meet you" she said in the process.

The wait was long considering the fact that there were about 300 passengers on the plane and there were only three booths. When it got to our turn, the flight attendant directed us to the house we would share with 9 other people. She informed us that further directions will be given to us later on in the day and then she strapped a metal bracelet to our wrists.

The three of us made our way to our house and marveled at it. It was huge. We walked in and looked around: the first floor had the kitchen, living and dining area. The second floor had 4 doors which I'm guessing are the bed rooms. None of us still haven't spoken a word.

Landyn and I walked into one and Louis walked into another one. I noticed three beds, a large closet and a bathroom straight away. We both plopped into one bed and just sat there processing everything that just happened.
