Chapter 35: Is That Lex?

Harry's POV :)

        The lads and I were sitting on the couch watching the TV. Derek was watching it with us. My phone chimed. I looked at the screen. I had a new text message...

        It was from an unknown number.

        I opened up the message and I started to read it:

                        Harry, doesn't she look gorgeous?

        I scrolled down and it revealed a girl. 

        Wait...

        Is that Lex? 

        I looked at the picture a little bit closer.

        It was Lex...

        She had purple bruises all over her body. Her hair was messed up and she had some blood on the tank top she was wearing.

        Why did he do this to her?

        I looked at her face. I felt like she was looking at me through the picture...

        She knew I was going to see it.

        Her eyes were very red, like she had been crying. And she was so pale. Very pale. She must not of had anything to eat.

        The sight of her made me want to cry my eyes out. She looked miserable.

        "Derek," I said. "Come take a look at this."

        I handed my phone to Derek and his eyes grew big.

        "That son of a bitch," he roared. "He hit her. HE HIT HER!"

        Derek's eyes filled with anger.

        "Let me see," Niall said. Derek handed him the phone. The lads gathered around Niall and looked at my phone. Niall looked up from my phone and looked at me.

        "We need to find her mate," Niall said.

        "We will Niall. We will," I replied.

        "Can you track the text message Derek?" Louis asked.

        "Probably not," he replied. "If he was smart, he would have probably destroyed the phone he used to send the text already."

        "Oh," Louis said.

        I sighed. How were we gonna find her now?

        "So, now what are we going to do?" I asked.

        "We will probably have to wait it out," Derek said. He placed his hand on my shoulder. "I will call some of my friends from the service and ask them what they think we should do. Have you called the police yet to file a missing person's report?" 

        I hadn't thought about that.

        "No."

        Derek sighed heavily. 

        "That's the first freaking thing you should have done," Derek growled.

        "I'm sorry mate. I completely spaced it."

        "Like I said before Harry. You will only be sorry if anything serious happens to my little sister," he said sternly. "No one and I mean NO ONE hurts my family."

        "I understand."

        "Great," he said. "Now if you'll excuse me, I am going to go call the police and file a missing person's report, and then I will call my friends from the service. Also, remember that my mother is coming home tomorrow too," he said.

        I almost forgot. Ms. Fuentes. I'll have to tell her too. 

        "Okay," I said.

        Derek got up and walked out of the room.

        I hope he finds someone that can help us find Lex.
