Never the Same...

I am...G.I. Jane

I closed my eyes in defeat, did they all leave? I was breathing heavy and the three of them had rolled me onto my back. Logan was on my left, Marco was on my right and Tyler was kneeling near my head.

Marco grabbed my arm and hoisted me to my feet. I looked around and Liam was running right at us. 

I closed my eyes tightly until we were smashed to the ground. I slammed on top of someone. 

Opening my eyes to see that Liam was running away, with Marco hot on his heels. I sat up, which is hard to do with my hands tied behind me.

Tyler had a grip on my hair, while Louis came out of nowhere and started beating on him. I was shoved over on my tummy again. 

Logan stood and tried pulling at Lou. 

Zayn and Harry came out of nowhere, just like Lou had, and started beating on Logan. I tried wiggling upward. Then Niall and Hunter came to me and helped me to my feet. I was leaning into Hunter while Niall untied my hands. 

Logan and Harry were pretty much just going at it. Louis and Zayn were conquering over Tyler. I tried to go help Harry but Niall and Hunter were holding me tightly against them. 

Liam came trotting back over to us, he had a massive grin, until he noticed me. His face went to pure rage. He hugged me, "I'm sorry, I'm so sorry love."

Eventually, Tyler fled and Harry knocked Logan out. We all rushed back to the cars and Harry was in the back of ours. Hunter and Niall took one car, Zayn and Liam in the other, while Louis drove our, I sat in the back with Harry.

We were driving in complete silence, but I was stewing over what had happened. I sat there for maybe twenty minutes, and then i started to sob. My shaking was terrible, I couldn't get a proper breath in and I was squeezing my eyes so tight that I was giving myself a headache.

I didn't care that I was making awful noises, I just needed to let it out. Harry scooted over and pulled me into his chest. I put my arm up and pushed on him. "No Harry, please." I wasn't even believeing what I was asking. 

I just wanted to feel like this. I wasn't yearning for the pain that came along with the choices I had made to put me in this predicament. Harry slid back to his side, and Louis was staring at me through the rearview mirror. 

We drove in absolute silence, no words, or sniffles were uttered. We pulled back into the house, and I sat there. Harry got out, probably upset with how I treated him. Louis stayed, "Rain, I like you alot. You know that, and I would do anything to make you feel at peace. Except right now, all you need is to stand tall move on."

I made eye contact with him, "Louis, I've been here before. I don't know what I'm supposed to do. He hurt Hunter! This is jacked up, I'm not going to just take this anymore. I'm done. I know we all just met not too long ago but I don't except you guys to help me with my drama."

I hopped out of the car and Louis was quick to my side. He gripped my shoulders, he opened his mouth to say something but decided against it. Instead we hugged, then we walked into the house.

"That was the most adrenaline I've ever had course through my veins! That was awesome!" Harry was screaming throughout the house. 

You could hear them all running around upstairs like kids.

Liam was chasing Niall around the laundry room with a loofa. I plopped down on the sofa watching everything unfold. I craned my neck to see into the hallway under the stairs, Zayn and Hunter were in a heated discussion.

I leaned farther and tried listening in. Hunter was towering over Zayn, even though they're the same heighth. Then Zayn punched Hunter in the jaw. 

I took that as my cue to run over there.

"What the hell, Zayn?!" I shoved him away. Turning my full attention to Hunter, "Are you alright?" I placed my hand on his jawline. He smiled and wrapped an arm around my waist, "We're leaving, right now."

He led me up to our rooms, and packed up our things. "Why are we leaving?" I sat on the desk in his room. 

"This isn't right! We are dealing with Logan and his idiots and you pulled these five idiots in as well. We need to go and you've always told me that we take care of ourselves. You can't lean on these poor guys any longer."

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Liam, Louis, and Harry were standing by the door, trying to "figure something out". When in actuality there wasn't anything that more right.

I hugged them all, and Louis kept his hands on my waist, "Please don't leave. We can fix this, I promise you." He nuzzled his face into my neck. Hunter was watching me and gave me a stern look.

I pushed off, "I'll see you guys around. I'm sorry for all of the-" Niall cut me off, "Rain, we loved every second of being around you. There's nothing to apologize for. I know that there's nothing that any of us can say to make sure you stay but I give you my word, we're going to deal with Logan so you can come back." 

Hunter gripped my waist and pulled me out the door. We got into the cab and drove away. 

This is the right thing, I knew that the new friendship was going to have to come to an end, right? Plus, even from the beginning I was the one who was trying to get rid of them, and go on my own. I turned and brought my knees up to my chest. Hunter pulled on me and I was leaning on his chest. 

~THREE HOURS LATER~

"Rain, wake up. We're here. Let's go." Hunter gently pulled my hair, he always did that when I was sleeping for too long.

I needed a break and this was a good way to do that. I was going to start over, for the second time.
