"And why would we need to do that?" I asked standing at the door.

Louis, Aiden and Niall all stopped immediately to look at me. Their faces turned to horror. They didn't say anything.

"I said, why would we need to call the police? What are you guys talking about?!" I asked, getting angry. They were hiding something from me.

"Erm nothing, honestly!" Louis said.

"Don't bullshit me, Lou." I said sternly.

"We were talking about Curtis," Niall started.

"And why were you overreacting so much, Aiden?" I questioned, not believing Niall.

"I was um-" Aiden started, scratching his head.

"For gods sake, don't bullshit me. Just tell me what's going on?!" I shouted, crossing my arms.

"We're gonna have to tell her," Louis whispered to Niall.

"Tell me what?!" I demanded.

"Jake." Aiden said, simply.

"What about him?" I sighed.

"Please, please don't freak out..." Aiden started, coming closer to me.

"Aiden, you're scaring me now. What are you on about?" I asked.

"It's Jake. He's alive." He sadly said, tears forming in his eyes.

The words hit me like ton of bricks. How? What? Why? When? I immediately started panicking and tears pouring out of my eyes.

"H-how long have you known?" I whispered.

"About three minutes," Aiden said.

"Five months," Louis and Niall muttered.

"How long were you planning on keeping this from me, then?" I asked, shaking.

"We-" Niall started.

"Don't Niall! Just don't! How could you?! Why couldn't you tell me?!" I screamed, mascara filled tears rolling down my cheeks.

"Sophie, please," he whispered, stepping forward to hold me.

"No, Niall. Don't touch me," I spat stepping away. Louis pulled on his shoulder. "And you, you are supposed to be my bestfriend!" I shouted at Louis.

"We're so sorry! Look, we wanted to tell you, we really did, but he's been saying stuff..." Louis sighed.

"Is there anything else I need to know?! Anything more important that my physco-ex is actually alive? Any threats? Wanting to get me again?" I yelled. Everyone's face downed a bit when I said about the 'wanting to get me' part.

I felt sick. This couldn't be happening. I could feel my head getting lighter and lighter and my breathing getting even more erratic. I couldn't cope with this. It is too much. Black spots were forming over my eyes. All I could hear was my name being called before falling to the ground.

*AIDEN'S P.O.V*

I hated it. I hated seeing her in pain. She was my little sister and nothing was going to happen to her. I could tell she was going to have a panic attack and pass out. Whenever I've seen her pass out, this is what happens. I couldn't believe it. Jake was actually alive. Her breathing was becoming erratic. We were all screaming her name, but she seemed oblivious. Suddenly, she just went limp and her body collapsed onto the floor.

"Fuck, Sophie!" I exclaimed, running over to her. Louis ran up next to me. Thank god he knew first aid.

"She'll be fine. She's just in shock, she just needs to be in bed when she wakes up." Louis muttered.
