365 Days | Chapter 18

''What are you talking about?'', Louis immediately asked as he sat up from the bed.

We all looked at her, waiting for Amber to continue. Although, her stare kept staring down at the floor as she furrowed her eyebrows.  

''He works for Xavier'', she finally said.

''Your boyfriend?'', I asked and I could see Louis' body tense.

Amber looked at me, slightly disgusted over what I just said.

''No, he is not my boyfriend. He is some sick man''

''Oh, really? So, what made you end up with him from the beginning then?''.

My intentions wasn't to be either mean or cocky. I was just annoyed, but the biggest part of it was that I felt some kind of responsibility over these people, especially Louis. And I couldn't let them get into trouble, and nearly get killed. Not again. This girl had caused enough trouble, almost getting Louis killed twice, even Bella. In a matter of fact, it didn't seem like she completely understood what she truly had caused. And I was pissed at the fact that she decided to turn to us about this, two random dudes and not one of her other one nightstands. I change my mind. My intensions were to be both mean and cocky.

''Okay okay okay, it's been almost a week since the incident in Los Angeles guys'', Bella spoke up and sat up in the bed, my eyes following her, ''What really happened? What is going on?''.

I could clearly hear a bit of panic growing in her voice. I wanted to explain, but I hadn't wrapped my head around the whole thing myself. Therefor, I remained silent trying to avoid the fact that they all were looking at me.

''Hm? Harry, why don't you explain, you seem up for talking, which doesn't happen to often'', Louis spoke, as he furrowed his eyebrows. I stared back at him, completely aware of that he got annoyed by my mean comment towards Amber. I, on the other hand, got annoyed by him being as blind as always for some chick.

''Yeah, why not!'', I annoyingly answered and sat up in bed beside Bella, and she looked at me, but I kept staring at my best friend, annoyed by his naive self, ''So basically, one night in Los Angeles, a horny dude named Louis de-''

''Seriously, Harry'', Bellas soft voice stopped me and my eyes resten now on hers.

''I'm sorry'', I honestly apologized, not to Louis or Amber, but for not taking Bella serious, ''The night before you came to us in Los Angeles, we met Tyler, your step brother, at his night club. Amber was there too, and we all stayed long after the club actually closed. Amber and Louis..'', I looked up at them, and they both looked down, but none of them seemed ashamed as a small smirk was formed at both of their lips, making me slightly roll my eyes, ''Did some stuff, and then Xavier walked in. A maffia dude, whatever, with two of his workers.  According to Xawier, he owned Amber in some way. We got into a fight, shortly said, and we run away. And for some reason, Amber then showed up at our room like three days later because she apparently run away from him too. And then you know what happened'', I explained.

Bella didn't looked convinced, but she nodded carefully before turning her head towards Amber.

''Why did you run away?'', she asked the blondie and now it was her turn again to have all eyes on her.

''Because he is a sick man, I had enough and I.. yeah'', she simply answered.

''.. You definitely seemed important to him since he clearly wants you back''.

Bella had a point, and I frowned as she said that. But the same second, a phone began to ring and even though Amber slightly opened her mouth to speak, Bella wasn't any longer interested in listening but answering the calling phone instead.
