My Not So Ordinary Life

Chapter Fifteen

If it was me the fans were chasing after, I guess this is what it would be like, only a lot less hectic. People who were walking into the mall changed their course to run after us trying to get to Austin.

We all get into the car I took from Dylan we and drive away. Luckily no one was parked right next to us so we were able to drive away.

Making sure I didn't hit anyone, I left the mall.

"Thanks for helping me out girls. I really appreciate it," Austin said from the backseat.

"Yeah, no problem," I say catching my breath. No one said anything for the past twenty minutes. I was paying attention to where I was driving, where Emma was on her phone, and I don't know what Austin was doing.

"Do you guys need me to drop you anywhere?" I asked them.

"Well, do you want to come hang with me at my place?" Austin asked.

"You live around here?" Emma said shocked.

"Yeah, it's my vacation house my parents use. I'm sure they wouldn't mind if you came over." I laugh. "What?" Austin asks.

"I'm sure they won't mind you bringing home two random girls you found at the mall. For all you know we could be kidnapping you right now," I respond.

Austin's face goes blank, and Emma laughs.

"Seriously though, I have to go somewhere. I can drop Emma off with you if she wants," I tell him.

"Are you sure?" Emma asks.

"Absolutely."

***

After I dropped them off at Austin's house I drove back to Walgreens and walked into the forest.

I bounced down into the Secret Dark Tunnel and texted Harry.

To Harry:

"I'm here. Just me, though."

I hear a door creak and look up as I slip my phone back into my pocket.

"It's just Bella," Niall hollers back into the room.

"Hey," I say.

"Hey, where's your friend at?"

"She's hanging with Austin Mahone. I had to drop them off and then come here. We were chased by some of his fans. It was weird," I told him.

Niall smiled. "Now you know what it's like when you have crazy fan girls chasing after you."

"It makes sense why they hide you away."

We walk into the other room that Emma, Liam, Harry and I were in yesterday.

Now there's a couch and a plasma TV. In front of the huge couch was a long table with food wrappers laying across it.

"How does this room get new furniture everyday?" I asked.

"It's magical," Niall says.

Harry is stretched out on part of the couch that is longer. Liam and Louis are just sitting on the couch while Zayn is laying on the floor tossing a happy sac to himself over and over again.

"You guys look very lively," I say.

Harry pats the couch next to him indicating I should sit down.

I get no response from anyone. Instead of trying to talk and make myself look bad, I don't say anything. I wait for someone else to start talking. Niall sat down on the ground next to say and started flipping through the channels, grabbing anything edible he could find off of the table.

An hour went by and no one said anything.

My phone started ringing.

"Hello?"

"Bella, where are you?" It was Dylan.

"I'm just," I look at Harry who is watching the TV, "I'm out somewhere."

"Well my mom and your dad are home."

"Okay," is all I said.

"Meaning you have to get home now."

"Okay, chill. Be there in ten. Bye." I hung up.

I lifted Harry's arm off of me and got up. "Where are you going?" He asked.

"My parents need me home," I respond.

Harry reached out his hand and I grabbed hold of it pulling him up. "I'll drive you," he said.

***

Harry pulled in the driveway, but didn't turn the car off.

"Something's wrong," he said.

"What do you mean?"

"What kind of car do your parents drive?"

"Honda Pilot," I say. "Why?"

I look in the open garage door and find it empty. I turn around and look at the street. They're not parked out front either.

"Would you promise to stay in the car?" Harry asked, then immediately got out and started walking towards the house. I opened the door quickly after and started following him. "Of course you wouldn't," he said.

"Harry, what's going on?" I ask nervously.

"Keep your voice down," he said.

I did as I was told, but continued to follow Harry. We walked up the garage steps.

I left my shoes in the garage as Harry slowly opened up the door to the house. He peered into the kitchen and living room. Nobody was there.

We started heading upstairs and Harry grabbed my hand. "Stay close," he whispered so quietly I almost couldn't hear him. I held his hand tightly. I felt nervous, but I hope it's not showing. We went to my room, and Harry thoroughly searched it making sure no one is in here. He even checked my closet and bathroom. He sat me down on my bed, and our hands were detaching.

"Where are you going?" I say quietly.

He turns back around and puts his hands on my shoulders. "I need you to stay here for a few minutes and lock your door."

"Why?"

"You ask a lot of questions," Harry smirks at me. My face is blank now, with my fear becoming visible. "You mean a lot to me, and I know your step brother better than you think I would. I know him better than you do. I need to make sure you stay safe. You mean a lot to me, and I don't want anything to happen to you." He kissed me head and I followed him to the door. "Please lock it until I come back for you."

"Okay," I barely choke out.

I lock the door then go back and sit on my bed. I want to be with Harry right now. I don't want to be in this situation. For all I know, both Harry and Dylan could be messing with me.

Either way, I want to be in Harry's arms, with him holding me tight. I don't want him to ever let go.

I jumped when I heard my cell phone go off.

I quickly grab it to mute it.

Emma's calling me.

I get ready to answer when I heard something move, and I declined the call. I looked towards my door and see the handle being messed with.

Someone is trying to get in.

I get up expecting it to be Harry, but then the person on the other side starts pounding on the door.

"Bella," the voice said. It was masked so I couldn't tell who it is. "Bella, open up right now! I know you're in there!"

The pounding got harder and harder until I black out.
