I don’t even know how long it had been. It felt like hours. Niall was still unconscious and I hadn’t stopped crying. The door opened and Curtis walked in with a first aid kit and walked over to Niall.

“Don’t say anything, I’m just cleaning him up.” Curtis said. Why did he care? He hated Niall. I just nodded and looked away.

Curtis quickly finished up and walked out again, locking the door. I looked at Niall and all the blood was gone, but he was heavily beaten up. He was covered in cuts and bruises. I cant believe he let them do that. Chris and Mark would have only hit me once but they completely beat Niall to a pulp.

“Niall, please wake up, please. I need to know you’re okay.” I whispered to his still body.

I was guessing that it was now around midday as it was pretty light, from what I guessed when Curtis opened the door. There was no windows in this place, considering how big it was. I just want to get out of here…

*LOUIS’ P.O.V*

I walked out my door and got in my car and started to drive to Niall’s. I knew he had gone to Curtis’ but he must of got nothing, he would of text me if he did. I pulled up outside the house and walked to the door. I knocked. But no one came. I looked through the tiny window of the front door and there was someone laying on the floor in the hall. It was..Aiden?! I knocked louder, shouting his name and his head raised slightly off the floor. For a second, I thought he was dead. When he realised who was knocking he gave me a signal to be quieter. It was midday! He opened the door.

“Shh,” he spoke letting me in. When I walked in, I noticed that on the floor where he was laying was an empty bottle of Jack Daniels.

“Why on earth were you laying on the floor?” I smirked as he rubbed his head.

“I sent Emily to her mum’s house so she would be out of harm and I ended up having a couple of drinks which turned into the whole bottle and I think I fell asleep there…” he said guiltily.

“It’ll be okay. You’ll be seeing her in no time!” I said, trying to sound optimistic, but I know that the hope was getting smaller and smaller. “Is Niall still in?” I asked.

“I don’t know. I don’t remember him coming back last night, but I could have been out of it…have you tried ringing him?” Aiden replied, stumbling to the kitchen to get some paracetamol.

“It just keeps going to answer phone. I’ll go and check his room,” I replied, jogging up the stairs.

I opened the door and there was no one there. The bed was perfectly made, the way Emily makes it. And she left last night…Niall never makes any beds…could he of? I ran downstairs.

“He’s not even been there. I can tell,” I panicked.

“Oh fucking hell, no. You don’t think that Jake could have anything to do with this, could you?” Aiden asked.

“I don’t know…”

“Get everyone round here. Now.”

I quickly composed a text.

‘please get round to sophie’s now as quick as you can. It’s important. Xx’

*MY P.O.V*

“Niall…” I whispered. But he still wasn’t moving.

Suddenly, I saw his head move a little and then a groan.

“Niall?!”

He lifted his head and opened his eyes.

“What happened?” he groaned.

“Chris and Mark beat you up…”

“Oh..yeah..”

“I’m sorry, Niall…”

“No, don’t be. I’d rather them do it again than have them even touch you…”

“You didn’t have to get beaten up though. They would of only hit me once, they’ve done it before. They could of killed you…this is my fault..”

“Don’t be silly. It’s not your fault.”

“It is though. If I had just stayed with Jake…”

“I don’t want to think about what could of happened to you…”

“You look awful,” I whispered, my eyes scanning his body and face on the other side of the room.

“It doesn’t matter. They will heal. Your face looks sore,” he sighed.

I knew I had a few bruises, a cut on my cheek and my lip was bust aswell, I think my neck was also bruised and so was my stomach.

“It’s not that bad…I just really want to go home. I want my brother.” I whispered a tear falling out of my eye.

*LOUIS’ P.O.V*

Everyone was round now and we were all sat in silence. Zayn, Harry, Liam and I were sat in the front room and the girls were helping Aiden out with something.

“Do you think something has happened to Niall?” Zayn asked, looking and sounding empty.

“I don’t know…” I replied.

“Hang on…do you reckon he has his phone on him?!” Harry asked.

“I’ve tried ringing him, Haz..”

“No, not that! He has an iPhone doesn’t he?!”

“Yeah, why?” I asked, becoming confused.

“I remember when he got it, he put that find my phone app on it!” Harry grinned.

“That’s all but great, but you need HIS password, and that’s what we don’t have,” I sighed.

“Well, I am sure that I can sort that out!” he smirked.

“Are you sure you will be able to find his phone, Harry?” I asked as he grabbed Aiden's laptop.

“99%.”

Harry loaded up  the screen and got the website up. He typed in Niall’s mobile number but it immediately asked for a password.

“Crap…” he muttered.

He tried Niall’s birthdate, Sophie’s name, everything possible.

“Try ‘whats the craic’,” Zayn joked.

Harry typed it in and the website made a positive ‘bing!’.

“Only Niall…” Liam chuckled.

The map started to zoom in and in. As that happened, we all got closer and closer. The map stopped and the location showed up. It was about ten miles away from here. I quickly typed the location in on my phone and I grabbed my keys.

“He might not even be there. But it is worth the chance.” I said.

“We’ll come with you,” Liam said standing up.

I knew that I didn’t really have an option in this, so they all followed me and we got in the car. I set the address up in the sat nav in my car and we set off. Hopefully, Niall was there safe. And maybe even Sophie…
