#Alice's POV#

When I opened my eyes, I didn't understand... Why are CeCe, Louis and Harry crowding me? And is that... Claudia? The nurse?

I tried to talk but my throat was so dry the only noise available were coughs...
"Drink this!" Louis pulls a large water bottle out his rucsac and hands it to me; I graciously accept and to my luck it was one of those amazing smoothies they keep giving me. I thank Louis and begin to sit up and just as expected a panicked Harry ran to my side, helping me up right. Even though I could do it myself.

Suffocating much?

"Harry, I am capable of moving... Alone" I roll my eyes, hoping to show my annoyance but he just looked amused, eurgh!
"Claudia, can we leave or does she need to be discharged or whatever?" Louis asks
"Uh, just leave. I'll forge it all for you! Go see LuLu!" The nurse encourages. CeCe helps me stand and passes me my clothes. I walk into one of the washrooms and change out of the gown and into my previous clothing. I pull my shoes on and strap my bag over my shoulder.
"I'm ready" I leave the room seeing only Louis and Harry. I guess CeCe left? I have a feeling she was getting frustrated with being less helpful then Claudia...

I followed the two boys as they talked about how I should wear a coat because it'll be cold and that it's going to be a long car drive... How far off does this LuLu live? I sighed as I stepped outside.

"Guys, where is the car?" I ask
"Shit.. Hop on, Ally" Harry winks crouching slightly. I reluctantly jump onto his back, we walked a bit until they were less people around before we sped off. As per usual a squeeze my eyes closed. "Open your eyes, Alice!" I hear Louis say, I do as told and slowly open my eyes blinking a few times getting used to the quick burst of wind, I stare in amazement at the passing colours, the greens, greys, blues, Reds and so on. They blend together in a beautiful blur. My eyes meet Louis' blue ones as he runs at the same pace as Harry. Suddenly, Louis looks away from me and at Harry before nodding and they both zoom faster. Oh, so we're in a race now?

"Go Harry!!" I cheer, causing him to laugh but runs faster anyway "Win!" I begin cheering on.

Soon we're at the house and Louis is complaining about losing "Sucks to be you" I mock, climbing off Harry's back
"It does indeed" Louis jokes causing me to laugh.

Sucks, vampire? Get it? No? Okay...

"You're talking to yourself again" Louis laughs making me blush. How embarrassing. Harry tells me to go get a coat and something to entertain myself with. I ran up to my room, placing some biscuits down for Maxxy once in there, who even bought her food? I pulled on a khaki jacket and grabbed a book before going back downstairs.

"Finally! In the car! I want to try get there before midnight!" Harry says once I get to the bottom step. I follow him outside and notice his Range Rover is not in the drive but infact a black mini-bus with tinted windows, I walk towards it noticing everyone was seated in the back, bickering. I shook my head, laughing slightly before getting into the passenger seat. I looked to my side; noticing Harry already seated and buckled in, he was basically just staring at me.

"Can I help you?" I sarcastically ask, pulling the seat belt across me. He didn't respond so I took it that he shook his head. 
"You can listen to music if you like" Harry says beginning to drive, I nod leaning forward to turn on the radio "No. Not on there! The idiots in the back will have you in stitches after one song" Harry stops me
"They bad then?" I lean back
"No, not at all just they joke about a lot" I nod as he uses his free hand - that had been resting on the gear stick - to dig through his pockets. He pulled out his phone and passed it to me, eyes still on the road.

I happily take it and unravel the headphone wire from the phone before realizing it has a passcode. I look up at him to say something but he beats me to it "Guess" I groan looking back at the phone... 
I type in '0 1 0 2' Which is Harry's birthday - I saw it marked on the calender in the kitchen. The screen said Incorrect passcode. I groaned again before typing '1 2 3 4' I know Harry is to smart to have it something so simple but whatever. Apparently that wasn't right either and I had only 3 more attempts before I lock his phone...

I type in other code '2 5 8 0Which are the numbers through the middle row - Usually what my passcodes are.

I sigh deciding to try one more time, this time it unlocked and it was only a joke what I typed in '0 7 0 9' My birthday. Most people would have found that weird but I think it's really sweet. For Harry's sake I pretend to not care about it and not embarrass him. I placed the ear buds in my ears and pressing on the music app, I can't be asked to scroll through his music so I use my thumb and press shuffle. I close my eyes and lean my head back.

The words to John Mayer - Free Fallin' filled my mind. Harry and myself have different music tastes but at least this is calming. This song had always reminded me of my mum, it was her favourite. I cleared my mind of all thoughts due to the fact I have been over-thinking things lately and I certainly don't want to cry.

I heard humming from Harry so I removed one of the headphones to listen to his quiet singing "All the vampires, walking through the valley, move west down ventura boulevard and all the bad boys are standing in the shadows, and the good girls are home with broken hearts"

"You're a very good singer" I compliment; he doesn't get a chance to reply before Louis' obnoxiously happy voice errupts "I know right!" He agrees
"If only Harry could notice" Louis shakes his back and forth.

We talked, joked and sung for a while until Harry stopped the car. This is the rougher end of London... I always called it 'Top of the Thames' but most people just called it... Whatever this area is actually called...
"Come on guys" Harry sighs, stepping into the dark outside. I am not leaving this car, can they not see all these people looking at us?! 
"Alice..." Louis my door and I flinch back when I see his glowing blue eyes, why are they glowing!? "I won't be able to see if they don't" He sighs "Just come out! No body is going to hurt you while we're here! These are just low-life witches and wizards that couldn't get through school" He tells, I nod taking his hand and trailing behind as we walk towards a rundown house, it wasn't what you'd see in movies when you hear about a witch. This house was brown/red bricked, what used to be a white door but was now grey in dust, a missing window had been covered with a sheet of wood, it was your typical tramps home I guess... And by the looks of it this is a council estate? But the ones I had seen were so much nicer and cleaner; hardly any difference between the private areas. So it's obvious this isn't a nice place to be.

Zayn knocked the door to the home and a dark skinned lady with dreadlocks answered when she saw Zayn she smiled a yellow-toothed smile. "Zayn! It's been so long!" She says in a creepy voice. She sorta reminds me of that weird woman from Pirates of the Caribbean.
"Not long enough" Zayn fakely smiles
"Nothing changes does it" She grins inviting him in "Nice to see you Harry" She greets him
"And you LuLu" He faintly mumbles
"I knew it wouldn't be long before you found me," She strokes his arm. Oh no, I do not like her.

That made me sound jealous, didn't it?

"I know, it's disappointing, isn't it?" Harry retorts walking straight in
"CeCe" She begins greeting each one as they go in
"Niall,"
"Summer,"
"Liam,"
"Louis," She says lastly "No Eleanor?" He shakes his head "Still human, isn't she?" He nods "You know what I told you Louis, you don't have long left!" Louis looks down at his feet and mumbles something I didn't quite catch but LuLu looked overly satisfied with his answer.

Louis then released my hand; tracing the others steps. The crazy witch lady looked at me eyes wide, jaw dropped, shoulders hunched and her skin was paling slightly. I stepped back because of her disgusting breath but she took no notice....

"Alice?"
