She's Not Afraid (1D)

The Light Behind Your Eyes

**Sophie'sPOV**

It was dark, I couldn't see where I was going. All I knew was that I was in trouble and that I needed to get away. I continued to run through the abandoned streets of London. The air was misty, making it hard to see where I was running. It was completely silent, apart from the sound of footsteps from behind me. I paused to a hault as a loud scream pierced the silence across the empty street. That was Taylor. Turning I ran back, calling her name. The mist prevented me from seeing anything, when suddenly something clawed at my leg. Looking down I saw my best friend stretched across the floor. Blood splattered across her skin and clothes. She had multiple bruises and wounds all across her body. Bending down beside her I cried onto her blood stained body. It was all my fault, I left her. Its my fault. I words drilled themselves further and further into my brain, making me break down. Looking up I saw a large hand smack itself into the side of my face.

Screaming I sat up, wacking away Zayn's hands as he continued to slap my cheek gently.

"I'm awake you dummy" I groaned, shoving his hands away.

Taylor's diary remained on my lap, the page still left open. Zayn looked down at it, quickly realising what he was doing I scooped the book up, hiding it behind my back. Zayn raised an eyebrow at me.

"Why were you reading Taylor's diary?" He asked. Wow, aren't you a smart cookie.

"I wasn't. I don't know how it got there" I shrugged "I sleep read"

Zayn shook his head, walking into the kitchen.

"Your lucky I love you enough not to tell her" He called to me, as he waddled away. Leaving me to recover from my horrible nightmare.

Shoving the diary back down the side of the sofa, I curled back up into a ball closing my eyes.

"Rise and shine!" Liam cheered, prancing about the room.

Groaning I pulled a pillow over my head to block out the sound of his voice. I was not in the mood for any Liam lectures today. Pulling the pillow from my grasp, he yanked my hand hard pulling me to my feet.

I shook my head, pushing his arm away. Giving him the idea that I wasn't in the mood. Making my way back up the stairs, the nightmare kept repeating in my head. Reminding me of how much of a bad friend I was. Pushing open the bedroom door I clapsed onto the bed next to Harry who was still sound asleep. I struggled to keep my eyes open, not wanting to go back into that nightmare. Just as my eyes slowly started to close.

"Sophie!" Niall shouted, opening my eyes I saw Niall stood over me. Making me jump backwards into Harry in shock.

I rubbed my eyes, pulling the duvet back over my head. Giving him the 'I dont give a fuck' signal, using my middle finger. But Niall obviously didn't get the point.

"Please Soph, get her to speak. Your the only one she trusts at this moment in time" Niall begged.

I closed my eyes, trying my best to blank out his words. I didn't want to think abou Taylor right now. The

guilt would just come back again.

"Whats going on?" Harry moaned, also joining me under the covers.

"Please" Niall begged again. His voice sounded so innocent. I couldn't resist his sweet voice.

Cursing, I swung my legs out of the bed getting to my feet.

"You owe me" I growled, poking him hard in the chest before exiting the room. Niall and Harry following close behind me.
