Not What I Need

Chapter 38 - Part 3

Chapter 38 - Part 3

<Harry's P.O.V.>

"Stop." I can't bear to hear the guys explain what we are. Plus, they're not even saying it! Which is only gonna cause more questions than answers for the girls.

"Have something to say Harold?" Liam lowers his voice at me. Dammit, Liam isn't my father, why does he have to act like that?!

"Yes, as a matter of fact, I do! You haven't told them about Zayn! Or the-"

"I was getting to that! By the way, Zayn doesn't know of his powers, but knows of ours." Liam is wrong for keeping Zayn out of the loop.

"Why can't he know?" Rosa looks like she knows something.

"Well, for his own good, for us, and most of all, just for many reasons. His powers aren't as simple as ours, and we are still having trouble adjusting... As you can see." He points to the 'scars' on Rosa's arms.

"How did these happen anyway?"

"I have no clue. I am definitely going to see how, but no promises on an answer because thats unusual. Luckily, you weren't severely injured. But Niall, you need to have control more often." Niall nods and Rosa studies the lines on her arms.

"Actually, we all need some practice days, just so we can boost up our defenses." I suggested and Liam agrees.

"Not a bad idea. But you girls need to occupy Zayn and Justin, especially Zayn while we are gone." Louis looks to Hazel as if in need of an response from her.

"Well.... I can hang out with Zayn to get to know my cousin. Rosalina, you can take Justin shopping or something to have some brother-sister-time by yourselves and-" Hazelia stops in her words when Rosa screams.

"NO! Nooooo! We can all go out, together. I don't hate you & Justin, so pleeeeeaaaasssssseee?" Rosa gave her puppy eyes and begged her.

"Fine! Sooo, where will you guys go, ya know.." Hazel accepts Rosa's offer and turns to Liam.

"Ummm... Where is it guys?" He tried stalling with the answer.

In seconds we all shouted out different answers.

"France!"

"Holland!"

"Russia!"

"Japan!"

"Africa!"

The room filled with mumbles of different places. We were only making ourselves look more guilty.

"Fine! Its in.... Transylvania!" He looks at us with concern, knowing he's lying.

Liam's eyes start to turn a slight shade of purple.

'Stop Liam your eyes.' I said to him in his head and he nodded, understanding me.

His eyes slowly changed back to their normal brown eyes.

"Bad idea telling them about our eyes Li." Louis joked and the girls giggled. "Now they can tell when we are lying, scared, or anything. We're SCREWED!"

I chuckled. Then I remembered what happened between me and Hazelia.

I got up and went to her. I grabbed her hands and looked her deeply in the eyes.

<Hazelia's P.O.V.>

I giggled a bit before I noticed Harry walking up to me, grabbing my hands. He looked me in my eyes and I could see his green orbs get brighter.

"I'm sorry, for everything. For ever laying a finger on you. For arguing with you. For.... Everything." He looked away from my eyes and I stood up. I took his chin and faced his eyes toward me. They begun to to turn a bit of orange.

"Awww... Don't be sad. I'm sorry too." I hugged him, he hugged me back around my waist, and I felt a tear fall on my cheek. Although, it wasn't mine. It was his.

I looked up at him, wiped under his eyes with my thumbs and kissed his cheek.

When I pulled away from him, he grabbed me tighter.

"Harry, let go. Please." I tried to say it in the sweetest voice possible. He loosened his grip and let me go.

I turned to Niall, grabbed his hand, and walked up the stairs. Away from the others.

<Louis' P.O.V.>

"Well.... AWKWARD! We all know what happens now." I looked at Rosa and she giggles.

"Well, hopefully, it won't, at least not now." She tilts her head and cracks her neck.

"Ewww!" I hate it when people do that. Popping their knuckles, is worse.

"Oh please Lou! Grow a pair!" I scoff at her words. "What about these scars?"

"Right!" Liam seems to have forgotten all about them. "I already have a clue on what might have happened, but, Rosa, I need to do something..." She gives him a confused face as he gets up towards her.

Liam reaches for something in his back pocket.

"What- OW!" Liam takes the pocket knife and slashes Rosa's wrist. "WHAT THE FUCK LIAM!?" Her eyes glow at that moment, a deep, dark, RED!

"Just as I expected! She's one of us." He turns around and sits back down.

"W-what? H-how?" Rosa stumbles with her words, holding back her anger and pain.

"Wait, you'll see." As if on cue, her arm instantly heals.

"The fuck? That's not possible!" She touches her arm. "That is NOT POSSIBLE!"

"On the contrary, it is very possible. Remember when Zayn hit you? Your nose bled, but you healed up at the hospital when the doctors brought you to the back. It left them astonished."

"But I went through surgery."

"Yes, you did. Only to clear your airways, just in case there was a blockage. By the way, have you looked in a mirror lately? Your scars on your nose are gone." He points to her nose and she looks down at it.

"Don't strain yourself!" She looks at me with her still glowing red eyes.

"And, your eyes are glowing. Red." Liam notices her eyes and they immediately turn gold. "Hey hey. Don't be scared. Trust me, it seems strange, but you get used to it. Guys, remember when we tested our powers?"

Boy do I...

~~~MEMORY~~~

"Okay, can we start with me, I want to get this over with." The others nodded.

"Sure!" They agreed in unison.

"You could say no, you bastards!" They grinned and strapped me in a chair.

"This IS going to hurt. I won't lie. But it helps." Liam takes out an object from his back pocket. I see a glare, and then-

"Owwwwww!!!" He slashes my arm, twice. "How the hell is this supposed to help me!?"

"Watch." I looked at my blood as it travels around my arm, then back up into the cut, and it heals itself. "See. We all have that power."

"So we have to get sliced too?" Harry asks Liam.

"Yes, its the only way to test your strength. And by how fast it heals, determines how strong you are. By how yours healed Louis, your strong enough." I was relieved by what Liam says.

"Great! Am I done now?" I tried to lift my arms, forgetting I'm strapped in.

"For now." Liam grinned evilly at me as he unstrapped me.

~~~PRESENT~~~

"Trust me Rosalina, we all had to go through it. Hell, we still have to, just to test it. But only once a month." I notified her and she smiled weakly at me.

"Just wait till he tests your flight, speed, and whatever else. That was just the easy part!" Harry cruelly jokes to Rosa and winces.

'Don't listen to Harry, he's lying. It's not that bad.' I mentally reassure her. She then looks around the room, her eyes land on mine. They turn a bright gold and she nods.

'I'm scared Louis.'

'I know.'
