Every time either Jane or I is around Marie, we’re oddly quiet. It’s not like we meant to be, but I can tell that we both can’t keep this from her. It’s only been three days but the possibility that she could get kidnapped any second scares the hell out of us both. We haven’t found the time to tell the lads, but we have to soon, for Marie’s sake.
Jane came over the house while all the boys were in the living room, playing Mario Cart. Marie was at work with Naomi, so we knew she was safe there. Even though we were all spread out in different apartments, we couldn’t help but still hang out at each other’s flats as if we lived there.
“How are we going to tell them?” she whispers while we were both in the kitchen. We were waiting for the microwaveable popcorn to be done as an excuse to talk.
“I guess we tell them straight out, not sugar-coat anything, you know?” the microwave beeped and I take out the steaming bag and opened it.
“Are you sure, I’m a little worried about Niall how he’s going to take it.” She looks off in their direction, seeing the boys having the time of their life. I pour the popcorn in a bowl. I go up to her and grab hold of her hands gently and look into her beautiful eyes.
“I’m sure he will be fine. We just need to make sure that we get our point across.” I reassured her. She nods and I kiss her forehead, wrapping my arms around my waist.
The moment of truth had arrived.
*Jane’s POV*
“Lads, there’s something we need to tell you guys.” Harry and I sit down by them hand in hand.
“PLEASE don’t tell me Jane is pregnant!” yells Liam
“NO! Wait why is that your first thought?” yell I as the other lads laugh. I turn and see Harry try his best not to laugh at his comment, especially since it’s not usual for Liam to say things like that. I just give him a short death glare and turn back to them.
“I dunno, you guys came all together I just assumed…” he leans back into the sofa, crossing his arms.
“No, this is much worse.” I say, more like a scared whisper.
“Remember… the incident?” Harry choked a bit. Niall’s face loses all color. Liam, Zayn, and Louis sits up and leans towards us.
“Mate I thought we were just going to forget-” says Louis before I cut him off.
“But this is important…. Trey is back.” A collection of gasps filled the room. “We have to keep Marie safe at all costs. We have to stay with her 24/7 or at least have Paul with her when we can’t.” I tell them. The boys stay quiet for a while. Niall covers his face, trying to process what had just happened. He looks like he’s inches away from crying.
“Do we tell her?” half-whispers Zayn.
“We thought about it, and we think that’s its best we don’t tell her.” Harry half-whispers back.
“But she has every right to know! She’ll be completely pissed off once she finds out we left her completely out of the situation!” Niall says, with a raised voice. He was now on his feet, hands clenched.
“Niall calm down! If we tell her, she might have an anxiety attack mixed with an asthma attack! We can’t tell her or else she will hurt herself!” I yell back, standing up as well. I know what he feels like, but I’m thinking for the best for my best friend.
“Jane, calm down.” Harry stands up and coax me to sit back down. Niall looks at me and Harry in disbelief.
“I… I didn’t know…”
