Chemical X!

Chapter 2 ~ If Im Louder Would You See Me?

Louis Pov

My heart pounded out of my chest as all of the writing disappeared from the screen. "Mr. X" I mumbled as Harry walked in "Hey Lou!"

He said sitting down cheekily. I watched his face drop when he saw my fear. "Louis... What's wrong?" He asked gently sitting down

next to me, a glint of worry in his eyes. Should I tell him? No.... He would just think Im paranoid... And even if he did believe me... I

didn't want him to worry. "Louis?" He repeated himself slightly concerned. "Nothing... I'm just... Thinking" I lied feebly. I could tell by

the way he was glaring at me that he didn't believe me... But he let I slide for now. "Get ready, we have rehearsals in an hour" he said

standing up and walking out the door. I nodded and cautiously walked over to my suitcase to grab a pair of clean clothes. I ran my

fingers through my hair... I really needed a shower... But honestly I had no intentions of taking one. Quickly, I changed into

sweatpants, a Captain Crunch T-Shirt, and yellow TOMS, and headed out to the hotel living room where the others were waiting for

me... Did I really take that long? I shrugged it off and opened the door to go but I was pulled back and the door was shut as I was

ushered onto the couch and the other four crowded around me. "Whats going on lads?" I asked hesitantly. "Lou, we need to talk" Zayn

said taking a seat next to me. "About what?" I grumbled... I was in no mood for talking to them but I plastered on a smile to keep them

from questioning me more than I figured they were going to do. "This has to end Louis, we all talked and we decided you need to see a

Psychologist" Liam stated firmly. That's it? That's what they wanted to talk about? Forcing me to see a shrink?!? That wasn't gonna

happen. "We're gone be late for rehearsals" I muttered under my breath as I stood up and grabbed my computer bag. I then briskly

made my way to the door. Harry gripped my wrist but I flung his hand away "Im just fine, and I'd be even better if you weren't

constantly questioning my sanity" I spat in a harsher tone than I had intended. Quickly I strode out into the hallway and over to the

elevator. I thought I was gonna be lucky enough to go down alone but Niall leaped in just before the doors shut. "Louis... honestly...

What's wrong?" He pried. His eyes met mine but I quickly averted my gaze. It was too late though, I had already seen the

disappointment and confusion. "I'm sorry.... I really am" I said pressing my arm against the wall of the elevator and hiding my face in

the crook of my elbow. "Lou, they put her in jail, its been over for over a year, you need to let it go" Niall said gently. I was the only one

who knew that it wasn't over though. It took every ounce of resistance I had to keep from spilling my Mr. X encounter to him. If I told

him, he wouldn't believe me, none of them would. There was a suffocating awkwardness and a sickening silence for the remainder of

the ride. When the elevator hit the bottom and the doors opened my head was flooded with screams of fans and I was blinded by the

constant flash of the cameras. I spotted the other three exiting the other elevator. My gaze met the ground as I walked through the

path that security had cleared. "Louis!" I heard a melodic yet raspy voice giggle from my left, I looked up for a split second and saw

her. Jet black hair, deep purple eyes. Standing amongst the sea of fans, and yet she was the only one I could see right now. I did a

double take and when I looked back she was gone... Had I imagined her? I didn't have any time to think before I was pulled into a

black SUV. I mindlessly sat down next to Harry and stared out the window into the crowd hoping to see that haunting face again. No

such luck. Eventually I got sick of looking out the window and simply sat starting at my feet again. "We're here" I heard Liam say

perkily as Harrys hand swished in front of my face. My door was opened for me and I stepped out just now taking in my surroundings.

We were not at the arena that's for sure "I thought you said we had rehearsals!" I stammered as I looked at the Psychology office in

front of me "We, have rehearsals, you have an appointment" Zayn said grabbing at my hand which I swiftly pulled away and jumped

back into the SUV. "You tricked me! You dirty little.."

"Louis!" Liam warned and nodded his head in the direction of the clinic. I sent each of them a glare before getting back out and

storming over to the front door of the office. "Lets get this over with!" I grumbled.
