***Louis' P.O.V***
Me, Zayn, and Liam were all sat in the lounge of Harry's house, a few cops still lingered around, but most of them had left to try and track down the Melanie. Niall and Harry had gone off God knows where, and it was concerning. Harry was pissed, and now he has gone missing. Hopefully they both went to go looking for Melanie, and not go on some anger raid. All three off us had our heads in our hands, worried about where they could be.
"Do you think they found her?" Zayn asked, looking up at me, hope in his eyes. I couldn't help but feel sorry for the lad. He clearly still had strong feelings for Melanie, but was doing the right thing by standing by Harry's side. Plus, he knew she was happy with Harry now, and he was going to have to accept that.
"We can only hope." I murmured, looking down at the ground. Zayn huffed in response, sinking down further into the couch.
Silence filled the room, as we all sat around looking rather glum, worried about Melanie and her safety, and where Niall and Harry had got to. My ears perked up upon hearing gravel crunching under the weight of a car pulling up, the car head lights briefly shining through the closed curtains. The outside lights automatically flicked on.
"You think?" Liam gasped, jumping up, all of us racing to the door. We flew the door open, and stared out into the darkness of the night. That was when we saw not two, or three, but four figures walking towards us. Well, only three were walking, because one of them was carrying somebody.
I recognized them instantly. We all ran over as Harry placed Melanie on the ground, and the three of us attacked her in a group hug. She laughed, trying to wrap her arm around all three of us, as she was reunited with us.
"God we were so worried about you, Mel!" I chirped, kissing the top of her head.
"You okay, babe? Is that Ashton fucker dead?" Liam chipped in.
"How did Harry find you?" Zayn added, as we all threw questions at her left and right. She laughed at us, before stepping back.
"I'm fine, and I missed you guys too." she smiled.
Zayn couldn't control his excitement, wrapping his arms around her again, Melanie hugging him back. Harry watched on carefully, eyeing Zayn up. Harry eventually decided he had enough, stepping forward to take her back, but I put my hand on his shoulder, stopping him.
"He's been really worried, Hazz. Give him a minute." I whispered. Harry huffed, but nodded. Normally he wouldn't allow it, but since Zayn had remained loyal to Harry, he allowed it, but he still wasn't overly pleased about it all.
"How did you find her?" I asked Harry and Niall.
"Well, why don't you let Alex explain?" Harry suggested.
"Alex? What? The prick that took her away in the first place?" I spat, glaring at Alex. Zayn heard what was said, and glared at Alex.
"YOU!" he boomed, lunging at Alex. Harry caught Zayn before he could reach Alex, preventing him from attacking. "She trusted you!"
"Zayn, mate, calm down!" Harry reasoned. "Hear the guy out!"
Zayn stopped, taking in deep breathes, his chest rising and falling at a fast rate, as he glared at Alex with hatred, waiting for him to speak up. I couldn't help but agree with Zayn in wanting to beat him to pulp, but seeing Harry defend him, gave me the impression we were missing something, so I just looked at Alex, waiting for the explanation.
