Untamed Love

Chapter 40 - Niall

Chapter 40 - Niall

When we arrived at the hotel, the girls weren't there. "Tess?" my voice echoed throughout the rooms.

"Cara?"

"Iz?" I heard Liam and Zayn call out. I jogged towards theor voices and frowned.

"Where are they?" Zayn asked with a worried face.

"Maybe they took an extra long spa session" I said reassuringly. They both nodded but I could see the worry in their eyes. They could probably see it in mine too. They walked away talking and whispering. I decided to call Tess.

After four rings, she picked up. "Niall!" she half yelled and half sighed. "Niall!" We are at the shopping centre can you come get us. Bring Liam and Zayn with you". Her voice was shaky and worried. I was getting concerned.

"Tess! Wait! Whe..." She had hung up. I clicked my phone off and punched the air in frustration. "Liam! Zayn!"

The two boys came running over to me. "What is it Niall?" asked Liam. His brown eyes were shaking and darting from place to place. He was breathing quickly and his hands were clammy.

"Liam! Calm down mate" we said rubbing his back.

"S-sorry. Im just so worried about the girls" he paused. "Well... Maily Cara" he blushed.

"I called Tess just then. She wants us to pick her up from the shopping centre. I don't know why but she sounded very worried and scared". They nodded in response and we quickly drove to the shopping centre.

- Tess -

We kept flushing the soggy piles of toilet paper down the toilet and getting new ones. "AHHHH! SHIT! S-somethings not right!" Iz yelled. I gently ran my cold hand agaisnt her side and I felt a sharp lump. I quickly drew my hand away and looked closely. Something was out of place. Possibly a rib. The surrounding area was a greenish purple. I snapped. "Why!"I screamed before storming out of the bathroom to find the guards. Cara and Iz tried to stop me on my way out. "Iz! They hurt you. I can't just let thay pass bu with out a punishmet.

I saw the guards from before lying on the ground groaning in pain and a few more in perfect condition surrounding them. "THERES MORE OF YOU? You already broke my friends rib, what else do you want?"

"You to get arrested" one guard grunted as he came rocketing towards me. I easily dodged him and he couldn't stop himself because he was so heavy.

"Ha! What was that? Are you even guards?" I chuckled knowing that I was aggravating them. Two guards came towards me. One had a grey beard and the other a thick black moustache. I took a deep breath and steadied myself.

Grey beard threw a few punches and got me a few times. I grunted in pain but sucked it up. I slipped my foot around his and grabbed his arm making him fall. I ran towards Moustache but Grey beard had grabbed me by the ankles and I fell onto my front using my hands as a brace.

As in had done a martial art when I was younger, I had done a lot of damage to many parts of my body. Including my thumbs. I felt pain shoot up my arm from my wrist and thumbs. I yelled out in pain. "Ha! Look at the weak one now!"

"Shut up! At least I'm not fat!"

- Niall -

Liam shoved open the doors to the entrance of the shopping centre and looked around. There was a single black shoe infront of us. A soft low mumbling caught my attention. "Where are the rest of your weak crew?" the voice interrogated.

"They aren't here. I told them to run away and leave".

"TESS..." We all whispered

"What is she doing?" asked Zayn

"Oh no!" I just said and ran towards the voices. We heard Tess cry out in pain a few times. When we reached her there were three men surrounding a limp sore Tess lying on the ground.

- Zayn -

Tess was biting her now white lip tears dripped down her face and fell onto the white floor beneath her. She was covered in grazes and bruises. She was cradling and rubbing at her thumbs and wrists.

I slipped making my shoes squeak against the floor. We quickly darted behind a pillar.

- Tess -

There was a squeak and two of the guards left to inspect. This was my chance. I gave both my thumbs and wrists a last soothing rub before propping myself up on them and swinging my legs around making the guard fall onto his chest, knocking the wind out of hos lungs.

I quickly got up and ran towards who I expected was to be Niall, Liam and Zayn. I ran behind a pillar and saw the three of them doing little damage to the guards.

Liam's eyes met mine and were instantly filled with relied but that was soon replaced with worry. I darted my eyes in Niall and Zayn's direction and made some hand gestures. Liam bodded and backed away. "Liam! What are you doing?"

He didn't reply, he locked his eyes with mine and Niall and Zayn soon saw me and Liam about to attack from behind.

- Niall -

Tess quickly limped over to the two guards and kicked one of them really hard in the balls. He fell to the ground clutching his area in pain. Liam, being a wrestler, stragetically jumped on the other guard bringing him down to the ground. He wrapped his legs around the guard locking him to the ground while throwing punches to his face.

The guard pushed Liam off an ran at him. Liam grabbed his shoulders and swung him around then flipped him onto the cold hard ground. The guard grunted before passing out.

I turned my head towards Tess, she gave a guard one last punch in the face before limping off to us.

"Tess! What happened?"

"The guards happened that's what"

"I know. I mean... I'm just happy that you're okay!" I grabbed her and hugged her. We pulled out of the hug to see an extremely worried Liam and Zayn.

"They are this way" Tess lead. She walked into the womens bathroom and we followed behind her.

"Cara?" Liam exclaimed she lifted her head up letting her dirty blonde hair fall around her shoulders. Her green eyes were glistening and were filled with worry and hate.

Zayn hadn't said anything. His brown eyes were locked onto Iz. He walked beside her and knelt down. "Iz? Iz please tell me you're okay"

"I-I'm o-oka-ay" she said in between shivers and coughs.

"We have to get her to a hospital" ordered Zayn frustratingly. He looked at his girlfriend and a single tear fought its way out of his eye. Tess got up and lead Zayn away. I sighed and left the bathroom following them.

- Tess -

"Zayn it's okay! You don't have to worry"

"NO! IT'S NOT OKAY! She has a broken rib. Don't deny it Tess. You can clearly see it" Zayn spat in my face.

I kept my cool. I just pulled him into a hug and we stayed like that until his shoulders gave way. I started to pull away when I saw that Zayn had started crying on my shoulder. I patted his back. "Don't worry. Everthig will be fine. I already cracked at the guards and got hurt in the process. And besides look at these skinny little things" I said lifting up his tiny arms.

He chuckled and said in his thick Bradford accent "I'll get Liam to punch them up yeh?" I laughed and we slowly walked back to the bathroom. I heard a shuffling from behind us. I quickly snapped my head around. Nothing. No one. I cocked my head in confusion. Zayn turned around and gave me a questioning look. I shook it off and we walked together towards the bathrooms.
