Chapter 18- He Went Crazy.

Bailey's POV-

........................................

"What the fuck, Liam?" I squealed.

He breathed heavily, and dropped the knife to the floor before taking off out the back door.

"Harry, we have to follow him!" I grabbed his hand, and tried to tug him along.

"Bailey, I don't know if its such a good idea." He replied. "Don't you think we should find out what happened first?"

A teary eyed Niall interrupted. "He went crazy. Not like blood crazy, or vampire crazy- but, he went off. Zayn and I just got here, we found him the same way you did. 'Don't know what happened."

"Harry, please." I begged. I needed to know if he was okay. I was curious as to what had happened, but I mainly wanted to know what had pushed him to do this. He's usually so calm and collected.

"Okay, you can go. I'm going to stay back, and help clean this up. I'm not really ready to be out of the house yet." He said shakily.

I nodded, and pecked him on the lips. I admired how much he really was trying. "Okay."

I headed out the back door, and ran for a little while, calling Liam's name ever so often.

Had Liam heard about Josh kissing me? Or had he possibly seen it? I can't think of any other reasons as to why he would have done what he did. If that was the case, I had no absolutely no idea that he would go to such extreme measures to stand up for me.

My wandered around continued for two and a half hours before I was about to give up.

"Bailey. You shouldn't have followed me out here."

I whipped around, coming face to face with a flaming eyed Liam. "God, there you are! I've been looking all ov-"

"I said you shouldn't have come out here." He cut me off, and repeated his earlier statement. His skin was slightly pale. Almost a dull shade of green, and there was small beads of sweat glistening on his forehead. He did not look very good.

"Why not?" I furrowed my eyebrows, as his deep stare bore into mine. "And why did you kill Josh?"

"Because. And I'm not in a good place right now, I could hurt you." He said.

"Liam, I trust you. You won't hurt me."

"You can't fucking trust me, Bailey! You've seen what this did to Josh! You're about to see it take its toll on me! I'll go mad, I'll rabid just like he did!" He screamed, moving closer to me.

"Liam, I have no idea what the hell you're talking about!"

"Harry didn't tell you?" He asked, suddenly calmer.

A knot formed in my stomach. I didn't want to believe that Harry had told me anymore lies. "No..."

"Josh... Bailey- he was dying. He had a disease." He let out short coughs in between pauses, and I listened intently.

A disease? "I thought vampires were immune to sickness."

"We are. All diseases except one." His eyes brimmed with tears, and he looked at his feet. "The first time I came across the disease was in 1765."

My eyes widened. I hadn't realized Liam was that old...

"I was staying with a friend at the time, and when he went out for 'dinner', he came back acting a little strange. Turns out, he had drank from someone who had Brooklime in their system. Brooklime is a very rare herb used to cure coughs, fevers, and skin diseases. It cures humans, but when ingested by vampires, it does the exact opposite. And instead of getting rid of the coughs, fevers, and skin disease- it causes them. Legend calls it the 'Veronica Beccabunga Vampire Disease'. But it's also known as the only know disease fatal to vampires."
