My head was pounding and when I tried to move, my muscles hurt so badly I almost felt like crying. I slowly opened my eyes. The room was dark and I could barely see anything. Suddenly someone touched my foot.

"Time to wake up now huh?" I recognized that voice. It was Louis.

"Where am I?" I asked. I had to speak slowly, otherwise my head would explode.

"Don't worry, you're safe now. You're inside Liam's house."

"Who's Liam"

"The guy who threw the party. Also the guy who drugged you."

"Drugged me?"

"Yeah, sorry bout' that. He thought the drink was for me. Not that it makes it better but I mean...We're friends so"

"Hold on, so your friend drugged me but he thought he was going to drug you.. You're fine with that?"

He didn't answer.

"How long have been passed out?"

"About a day"

"A DAY? Ouch..." I said and rubbed my temples.

"Okay you have to rest"

"No, have you waited here all this time?"

"Yeah, you know, I've been sitting here for over a day." He said with a sarcastic voice.

"Fuck, I missed first day of school"

"Don't worry, it's not like this school cares or anything." He said.

"I'm thirsty" I said and licked my lips. I suddenly realised how dry my mouth was. It was like the Sahara desert.

"So go and get some water, I'm not your server"

"Fuck you"

" I'm messing with you, I know you can't move."

He stands up and disappears for a few minutes. I could see the room more clearly now. It had big curtains that pulled out in front of the windows so that no light could get in. I was laying on a dark brown leather sofa.

"Here you go" Louis said as he entered the room. He gave me glass and sat down on the chair next to the couch. I could feel him staring at me while I drank the water. I Didn't care. That glass of water was the most delicious water I have ever had. Sweet sweet water.

I dropped the glass on the rug when I was finished. I was just about to fall asleep again when I could hear someone whisper.

"You know you're killing me right"

Sad part is. I wouldn't remember it when I woke up again.

---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

When I woke up this time, the sun was shining into the room. I was feeling much better and my head wasn't pounding as much. I could move and when I turned to the chair Louis had been sitting in it was empty. I sat up straight and pulled my phone out of my pocket. The time showed 6 AM. Tuesday. Great, I have to get to classes in an hour. Plus, I missed yesterday's classes so I'm pretty sure the teachers are not that happy with me. I stood up and walked out to the kitchen. It was pretty dull. Out of nowhere, Louis walks in and just walks right past me.

"Hi?" I say.

"Don't talk to me" He said without turning around.

"Why"

"What part of don't talk to me don't you understand"

I rolled my eyes. Suddenly another guy comes in and looks at me.

"Hello, I'm Harry Styles"

"Oh, Harry Styles..." He smirks.

"Liam, don't" Louis says. Still not facing us and leaning against the sink.

"Okay, look. I just need to get to campus as soon as possible, so if any of you weirdos can drive me there it would be great." I say to break the tension.

No answer.

"Wait, Liam...?" I say in realisation.

"Yeah?"

" You're the son of a bitch who drugged me!"

"Oh, shit" He says and runs out of the kitchen. I stand still and close my eyes. I stand on the same spot for maybe 30 seconds. I do that when I need to calm myself down. It was something my psychiatrist told me to do whenever I got really mad.

"Are you coming or what?" I could hear Louis voice from the hallway.

"I thought I weren't allowed to talk to you" I scream back.

"Look, if you want a ride you should come right now. Otherwise you will be stuck here for the rest of the day"

"Fine jerk" I say to myself and walk out and into his small car.

"Just don't say anything until I speak to you okay"  He said with a very demanding voice.

"Why would I listen to you?"

"Shut up. You already broke the only rule"

"Asshole"

"Okay you don't wanna see me get mad while I'm driving so you should shut the fuck up right now"

I stare out the window and think about how I miss Cheshire and all of my NICE friends back home. I never asked for any of this, to get drugged and miss the first day of school, get weird hallmates or attend a crappy college. I never asked for Louis to enter my life.
