Until We Met (One Direction fanfic)

I Need You Now (Chapter 24)

Recap:

"So there's something I need to tell you," He started saying. "I just don't know how you'll react."

"Okay. Go for it." I pushed him to go on. I was genuinely curious why he ignored me for the past four hours, managed to turn all the boys against me, but now when I want to be alone he needs to talk about something.

"I got this.... text," He showed me the phone which when I looked at it I froze in my spot. "Who is this?" He then questioned.

At first, I honestly didn't know how to respond. I mean why would I tell Louis the complete truth if I couldn't even tell one of my best friends. I've known Louis for a few weeks and I know he is not one to judge.

"Um.. that's what I've been trying to figure out."

Chapter 24

Louis' POV

After I heard what she said, I realized that there was something weird going on. From the time that I've known her, she was a trustworthy person. I feel like she wouldn't do something intentionally in a way, maybe there was a reason for all of this. For all I know it could be a crazy fan who wanted to sabotage our relationship, or a psychotic stalker.

I gave her a questioning glance as she finished telling what she knew. Apparently there has been this mystery person texting her, trying to ruin our relationship, which up until now they successfully did.

"Ok, we should start figuring this out by going to security about this," I responded after thinking for a couple of minutes. " I just need to see what yours say." I continued.

I saw her visibly tense as I finished speaking. Maybe the texts she got were worse than I thought. I glanced at her phone, and then back at her and repeat this a couple more times so she would get the message.

"N-no I'm not giving you my phone." In a flash, she hid the phone behind her back. Of course, with me being stronger, I was able to pry it out of her hands. I stuffed it into my back pocket before she could try to grab it again. She did her fair share of struggling and grabbing again, but she knew that she couldn't get pass me. Lilly sighed in defeat and sank into the couch that was to her right.

Seeing that she was no longer fighting, I took this as my chance to finally look at the message. She had no lock on her phone, so it was easily accessible. I scrolled through her texting conversations until one caught my eye.

'Break up with Louis or someone will do it for you. Karma's a bitch and you don't wanna feel her rath... or do you'

'When you get to the concert tonight go backstage and ask to talk to Harry. In the middle of talking to him, kiss him.

Wouldn't want Louis to find out about your secret..... would we?"

I stared at the screen wide eyed and slowly looked up at Lilly. She looked petrified as she was examining her shaky hand. I just wanted to go to her, kiss her, and tell her everything would be okay. Obviously though I couldn't do that because she's probably pissed that I didn't believe her in the first place.

"What's this secret that you didn't want me to find out about?" I questioned.

She let out a deep breath, "I-I can't tell you."

"DAMNIT Lilly! If you want me to help you have to tell me." I shouted pounding my fist on the coffee table in front of me.

"Louis, I can't tell you." She repeated forcefully, standing her ground.

"Fine," I sighed, "have it your way."

I got out of the messages and passed the phone back to Lilly. She took the phone immediately and stomped back into her room. This left me thinking... what's the secret that she doesn't want me to know?
