Morgan's pov
I stopped when I saw blood in the middle of the path. Dripping blood. When I looked up I saw people hanging upside down.

I took a step forward but felt Michael pull me back. I ignored him and walked forward with him this time. The closer I got the better I could see the bodies. It was Calum, Luke, and Ashton. They're dead.

Their feet were tied together as they hung upside down. That's where the blood came from.

It suddenly became very dark. Thunder boomed making me jump. I turned around but Michael was gone.

"Michael" I yelled but got no answer.

"Michael where are you?" The silence was scaring me.

"This isn't funny" I yelled into the dark sky.

Lightning struck and Michael appeared, tied to a tree with blood running down his face.

I gasped and took a step towards him. Someone had hit him on the head with something.

I started sobbing. I just lost 4 of the most important people. I started walking back to the car but was lifted off my feet. I screamed and flailed my arms and legs around but nothing ever happened.

I could faintly make out the persons face who was holding me. It cleared up to Michaels face. I reached up with shaky hands and cupped his cheek causing him to look down and smile.

"Just let me take you home okay?" He whispered. I nodded and laid my head on his chest. I sniffled every now and then and wiped a few tears that still fell.

"You okay angel?" Michael asked as he placed me in the passenger seat.

"I think so" I said pulling my sweatshirt tighter around me.

"Good" he smiled and leaned up to kiss me.

The ride home was quiet. Michael rubbing small circles on my thigh as he drove.

I was still very confused. I thought Michael was dead. Did this mean Calum, Luke, and Ashton are alive? I don't know.

I started fiddling with my hands when I noticed something in my finger. In red ink it said you didn't listen.

I gasped causing Michael to look over at me with raised eyebrows.

"What is it?" He asked glancing at the road then back at me.

"There's more writing" I said my voice cracked.

"What does it say?"

"You didn't listen" I said raising my finger to show him. I notice my hands shaking.

"Hey babe just relax" Michael said squeezing my thigh before rubbings circles again. "You'll be okay. I promised to protect you and that's one promise I will never ever break" he said. I could see a smile on his lips as he focused on the road ahead.

"Have I ever told you how much I love you?" I giggled.

"Have I ever told you how much I love you?" He shot back.

I leaned my head back against the seat and closed my eyes. I felt safe right where I was. I knew when I was with Michael that nothing bad would ever happen to me.
