         The ride back to the house was awkward for sure. I guess no one really wanted to talk about what happened with James. I had to call Aria and explain to her I'm fine. I tried to convince her she didn't need to come and check on me herself, but she is just as stubborn as always. I'm still trying to figure out what happened to the rose and slip of paper. What does "eternity" supposed to mean? I mean, how is that relevant to any thing going on here. I walk back down stairs to see Harry in the kitchen eating an apple and reading the newspaper.

        He looks up and notices me standing here. He sets the newspaper down and says "Well, the press is on edge trying to get answers on what happened. But our manager told them it was nothing to worry about. Let's just hope people don't start making fake stories up. Any ways, how you holding up?". I give him a funny look. I say "Oh, i'm doing fine. I only got poisoned from someone I thought was my friend and got out of the hospital just three hours ago. But other then that, yeah. I'm great". He gives me a mean look. Then we both just start busting out laughing. He says "Yeah, what ever smart ass". I give him a sly smile.

          I stop giggling and say "Okay, i'm being serious now. Can I ask you a question?". He makes a worried expression. He says "Yeah, of course". I look him dead in the eyes and ask "Do you know anything about the word Eternity? Like is it the name of a park? Mall? Lake? something like that". He gives me a look of concentration. He says "There is only one place that rings a bell. It's a teen club near here called Eternity". A club... I don't know why, but I feel like I should check it out. I say "Okay, well would you mind if I ask directions to find it?". He gives me a strange look. He says "Why would you want to go to a club? No offence, but you don't seem like that kinda teenager". 

        I say "I just saw a paper about it on a bulletin board in the hospital. It looked interesting to me. I think I just need a break to have some fun". I try to give him my most convincing smile, but I'm sure I look constipated. He says "Okay, but i'm going with you". I study him face to see if he is serious. He says "It can get pretty dangerous there at night, especially if your alone". I sigh. I guess I have no choice. I give him a bleak expression and say "Fine, but only you. None of the others can know about this. We have to sneak out at midnight". He gives me a sly smile. He says "Okay, that sounds good to me. Maybe while we're there, you can tell me the truth". 

       I can feel my face turning red. He smiles and walks out after throwing the apple away. I stand here in shock. Well, hopefully I can find something there that will explain the mystery person i've been seeing. I walk over to the counter and notice some letters. I turn to make sure no one else is near. Then I start to look through them. There is four letters. The first one says "Watch your back" It appears the first three of them are for Zayn. The second one says "Enjoy your last few days of life". The third one says "You took what I love, so now I'll take you". The fourth one says "He will DIE, all because of you". I turn the letter and see who's it's for. The fourth letter is addressed to me.

                                                                    *Midnight*

          I dress myself up. I mean, it is a club. I should I least look like I belong there. I jump off my bed and slip my cellphone in my pocket. I hear some light knocking on the door. I walk over and open it to see Harry. He is wearing black jeans that look almost tight enough to be skinny jeans, but not quite skinny jeans. He is wearing a dark blue polo button up shirt with a black tie. He has on black dress shoes and is wearing a black bolero hat with sunglasses that barely show his eyes. My mouth almost hit the floor. Now i'm not into him like that, but I gotta say, he is really sexy right now.

        He notices me gawking at him and gives me his signature sly smile. He says "Is there something you like?". I blush a bright red. He laughs and says "Okay, enough playing around. Are you ready to go?". I gain back enough control to nod my head. He says "Okay, lets get her done then". I laugh at his failed attempt to be southern. I say "Okay, lets go before someone wakes up".

                                                                *Club Eternity*

           We park in the parking lot and jump out the car. I look at the front door and notice the bouncer. He is really huge. He has a bald head and appears to be in his forties. I can hear the loud music blasting through the building. I look over at the line. It's pretty long. I notice that a lot of these guys have Mohawks, dyed hair, and piercings. I start to get really nervous once we walk in line. Harry notices me biting my bottom lip and says "Relax, it'll be fine. I'll be with you the whole time". I smile. I think I can trust him enough to tell him whats going on. He is going to all this trouble to help me. 

        I look over at him and say "You want to know why I really wanted to come here, right?". He looks at me with surprise. I guess he didn't think I would actually tell him whats going on. He nods his head. I say "Okay, well I guess it started on the plane ride here". I proceeded to tell him about all my dreams and about the figure at the amusement park. I then get to the part when I woke up in the hospital. I say "When I woke up at the hospital, there was a strange person standing at the foot of my bed. He or she was wearing all black and had a baby doll mask on. It didn't say anything at all. It just laid a yellow rose on the table and handed me a slip of paper. Then it left. The paper said Eternity. I left to see some kids and when I got back. They were both gone".

        I looked at him and it looked like he was taking it all in. I say "You think i'm crazy, don't you?". He looks at me and says "Yeah, your pretty crazy, but I still believe you". I sigh and laugh at his comment. I notice we're up next. Harry turns to me and says "Okay, let me do all the talking". I raise my right eye brow and nod. What is he going to say? He reaches in his pocket for something. He hands the bouncer $50. I try so hard not to fall over laughing. But the bouncer smirked and made a grunt noise. This can't possibly work. Then the bouncer grabs the money and lets us through. As we walk in I whisper in Harry's ear "Next time, i'll handle it". He laughs as we get blasted with music.
