Runaway Love. ~

Chapter 4. ~

Louis POV* 

They're so many goddamn fans here today! We'll have to use the back stairs again, and what do you know, we might even run into Nialler! He decided to go for a walk in the park, and not go out to lunch with us, which I thought was odd. 

I shook off the thought and the boys and I ran up the narrow staircase. That was until I heard voices. A male and a female. I could tell the male's voice was Niall's, but the girl's voice, well I knew it from somewhere.... but couldn't put my finger on it. It sounded so familiar though. I was curious, so I continued padding up the stairs.

Thanks to the thought of mine, all of the boys were ahead of me. From the sounds of it, they had caught up with Niall and the mysterious female. 

"Woah, woah, woah, there Nialler, who's your lovely lady friend?" Harry ask flirtatiously. I slowed down my walking to hear better, to hear her name. I had to know it, it was driving me nuts. 

"Uhm, Colbie. Colbie Hunter." She replied angelically. 

Holy shit. I know that voice. 

"C-C-Colbie?" I somehow managed to choke out. 

The girl stood up and excused herself through the other boys. 

"LOUIS?!?!" Colbie replied almost immediately after she saw me. 

"Holy shit." We said in unison, and then embraced. 

Colbie's POV*

"Woah, woah, woah, there Nialler, who's your lovely lady friend?" A good looking male with deep brown curls and baby green orbs asked Niall. There were three boys in front of me, and they were staring at me, waiting for a reply. 

I softly spoke. "Uhm, Colbie. Colbie Hunter." 

"C-C-Colbie?" Said a voice from someone I couldn't see. The voice sounded quite familiar, almost like- 

No. It can't be Louis, can it? 

I somehow had the confidence to stand up and check. I squeezed my way between the boys that were once standing in front of me, which was quite difficult, thanks to the narrow staircase. As soon as I saw the blue-grey eyes, I stopped my tracks. 

"LOUIS?!?!" I yelped quite loudly as soon as I saw him.

"Holy shit." We said exactly together, as if on cue. We hugged tightly for what seemed like forever, but a good kind of forever. A best friend kind of forever. 

After a long, long, LONG embrace, we finally tore apart from each other. 

"Colbie, is that really you?" Louis asked, quite baffled. 

"Of course it's me you nut bong! Where the hell have you been? We haven't talked for three damn years. Louis, what the HELL happened?" I asked, suddenly upset with him. Remember, Colbie- he doesn't care about me. He never visited me, or more like rescued me. 

"Colbie, babe, I thought you were, uhm, dead." Lou replied faintly. 

"WHAT?" I exclaimed, followed by more whats behind me from the other boys. 

"George said you, uhm, 'excused yourself from this world' after what happened with your uhm, mum." He said knowingly. 

My jaw dropped down so far, flies could fly in. 

That monster told Louis I killed myself?
