LUKES P.O.V

Finally.
We were home.

I avoided speaking at all since the night I broke.

It was all over the media. Everywhere I looked the same fucking film played.

I wonder if Kate would of seen it...
Would she care?..

Or would she laugh. Laugh at how pathetic I was.. Was this all a game she played with me...??

No.. Kate wouldn't do that. She couldn't.

Then it clicked.

There WAS a way I could find her. 

I sprinted to the phone that was covered in rice and swiped all of the caught pieces of rice off.

I crossed my fingers as I ran to the charger and plugged it in, the boys giving me a curious look.

It turned on.
A large sigh ran over me. So far, so good.

The screen had lines through it but still responded to my touch, to my luck I knew her password, because she trusted I wouldn't spam her camera roll with selfies like the others.

I went into her contacts, seeing Dean's number and calling it quickly, pulling the charger out and going to a different room.

Dean finally answered.
"Kate?!"
"Where the fuck is she?!!!!" I roared back.
"Luke???"
I threw my arms up.
"Who else!!!"
"Look I'm on the look for her. Something happened and I don't know where she-"
"If you're looking for her I'm coming with you!"
"Luke you're on tour!"
"Don't play that fucking game. I know for a fact you would've seen that stupid fucking video!"
Dean went quiet.
"Fine. I'll be there in an hour. Pack your things."

I shoved her phone in my pocket as he hung up and ran to my room, gathering my things.

Without my realisation everyone was standing in the doorway, watching me pack.

"Luke... Where are you going..?" Ashton asked quietly.
I stopped and looked back at them before continuing to pack.
"To find Kate."
"Luke. You can't just leave like this. We're touring." Michael cut in.
"Do I look like I'm in any state to perform again Michael?..."
"You love her. Don't you?"

I stopped before looking at my bags, the picture of her with us in Italy then giving a nod.

I grabbed my bags as Dean's car pulled up.

Calum stood.
"How long will you be gone...?"
"As long as it takes." I murmured, closing the door behind me and walking to his black Chevrolet and getting in.

Dean drove as dangerously as Kate did.
"This maniac driving must run in the family." I laughed, trying to lighten the mood after the half hour of complete silence.

Dean laughed.
"Yeah, not even the cops can keep up with these skills."

He turned off onto the freeway, seeming to know where to start.
"So, I guess you wanna know what's happened right..?"
I gave a quick nod, praying it didn't have something to do with me, or the guys. I just want her to be happy.

"Well... That night, Mum and Dad had gone on a hunt together. They were hunting this real.. Killer you know. The bitch had been at poor victims for years. It only comes out to kill in August, but it can still be found whenever, you just have to know where to look."

Hunting??? What is he on about?? Some fucking fox??

"They'd had her.. But she got Dad through the heart... But made sure he died slowly while my mother was unable to move.. The doctors say she'll be paralysed for life."

I looked at him, extremely confused.

His eyes slowly widened, regret written all over his face.

"She hasn't told you anything about this stuff... Has she?"
