Beside You (A Marianas Trench / Ghost Town Fan Fic)

~Chapter 23

“I have gathered you all here today for a meeting.” Liam said professionally toward all of us sitting like peasants on the couch in front of him.

“What are you doing Liam?” Niall asked rubbing his forehead.

“Yeah what is this?” Louis asked.

“Order!” He said hitting the meat tenderizer on the surface in front of him.

“Woah woah woah man be careful! Nemo III is right there!” Nova said referring to our fish bowl.

“Sorry, so I’ve gathered you here today to-“

“Wait what happened to Nemo and Nemo Jr?” Zayn interrupted.

“Well Zander kind of knocked over the tank and then we quickly put him in the sink that was conveniently filled with water but…” I trailed off.

“See I tried to turn on the light but the light is right by the garbage disposal and…” Nova finished.

“I HAVE GATHERED YOU HERE TODAY!” Liam started getting our attention.

“Oh that poor fish. Or.. Fishes…” Harry added.

“HEY!” Liam shouted.

“Sorry Liam.” We all chorused.

He nodded and put his head down.

“Lads, we’re going home.” He said looking at us again.

“What!?”

“NO!”

“I don’t wanna!”

“But Nova totally digs me!” The last one being Harry.

Zayn just pouted in the corner. They all looked at us in desperation. Are we really that cool?

“I’m sorry but we have new body guards that are going to protect us from these people trying to kill us.”

“WOAH wait! You were using us for our body guarding skills!?” Nova asked wide eyed.

These peasants!

“Well I don’t know anyone else who was a black belt in martial arts by the time they were six years old, the highest rank in Jui-Jitsu by the time they were 11 and state boxing champions by the time they were 15, not to mention Kat holds the arm wrestling title in Bangkok.” Niall said matter oh factly.

Oh yeah I kind of forgot about all of that. I mean motocross just always topped all of that. And that summer in Bangkok was great.

“So our new body guards and Paul will be here in an hour to pick us up, get packed.”

Harry’s POV:

We were just told that we are leaving this awesome house with these hot girls living in it to go back to London. I’d rather not. I haven’t seen the boys this happy and care free in a while and it sucks that we have to go back to our normalness. I don’t want to go home! I might just throw a little kid tantrum and refuse to move. No, that won’t work because then they’ll threaten the hair and NO ONE touches the curls.

The girls don’t really look sad that we’re leaving though… I thought we bonded in the time we’ve been here! I mean I know we’ve been here like a month but I don’t think they’d be sick of us yet. Right?

“Aren’t you sad we’re leaving?” Louis asked them with a puppy look on his face.

“Oh uh… yeah!” Kat said sarcastically.

“We’re crushed! Please don’t leave.” Nova said monotonously throwing her hand dramatically on her forehead.

“Get out.” Kat said quickly afterward.
