Tortured In Silence

Chapter 5

Louis lay beside me for the night. He made me less nervous now. I actually feel better around him but i still don't like him. Harry is just unforgivable. Today really sucked. i couldn't sleep so i got up. I looked at Louis beside me, deeply asleep. He actually looks so much calmer. I bet without his piercings, he'll look much more .. presenting? i don't even know. I noticed bruises on his face and cuts. I went to get some medicated oil and Band-Aids. i softly wipe away some blood on his chin and forehead. i bet he is a heavily sleeper. i put a band-aid on his scars. I noticed his knuckles were clean. Didn't he fight back? he doesn't fight?

"thank you" he mumbled into the pillow. What. he feels it. awkward. Then he started snoring. so he fell asleep again. i whispered back,

"you're welcome ..". i lay down in my bed again after putting away my "first aid kit".

"you really hurt her like all your previous ones." .. here my over thinking comes ..

who is this previous one? should i ask lou? i look over to him. still asleep but facing me. I turned back and stared at the ceiling and fell asleep.

When i woke up after the long day yesterday, lou already left but he left a letter. i had a hard time reading it because his handwriting is horrendous in my opinion.

"Diana, massive thank you for the band-aids and stuff. i feel better now. i know that its been a rough day for you. i know you probably still hate me. but can we be okay? sorry for just leaving like that, i need to go out. do rest .. Its Sunday .. yea. Text me if you need anything ,

louis :) "

his smiley face. that made me laugh. i put his letter under my pillow and took a quick bath. I checked my phone and see so many messages. Most of them are from Harry. I ignored his and read Miranda's.

"*omg, niall invited me to have lunch at his parent's home. so i wont be there today and do rest .. i hope you're better now :* ily *"

Woah. she has a date with Niall .. they're going great.  I took a hot bath to clear out stuff from my head. It still hurts but i don't care.

- Harry's POV -

Why isn't she replying?! she is still angry at me? Both of us were going well. dammit. I decided to go home. Then i got a message from Liam,

"*hey, we will a having a performance tonight at the club. so get ready and don't even think to take her. you really messed up.*"

Fuck him. i can't bring her? fine then. she shall not come. I was about to reply Liam when i got a call from Zayn.

"Hey bro. she aint replyin you."

"fuck off man. stop talking shit. we were okay before Louis steps in."

"remember, it was you who asked her about Louis when she clearly wants to go and now, she finds louis better than you man."

"she what?!"

"listen, go prepare for tonight's performance bro. i'll drive her there and you aint gettin close to her."

"hey-"

before i could say anything else, Zayn hangs up.

who does he think he is? can steal her away from me? i know its been a few days since we met but i like her. fuck. so, i just went back to school and stay in my room till tonight.

...

I realized that i took a very long bath. its quite nice. I took out a pair of jeans and a pullover. I wore it, and blow dry my hair. O shall i do today? i should find a job. anything will do. So i put on some concealer and eyeliner. i grabbed my purse and went out. I was about to go out of school when i saw Harry. I ran away to hide from him. I ran as fast as i could. Other students stared at me.
