Only for You

Chapter 16

I dropped the piece of paper. Tears rolling down my cheeks.

I looked over to my bed. My mums picture was still in its place. I grabbed it and fell on the floor.

"What do I do?"

I grabbed my phone and dialled Harry's number.

"Hello beautiful"

"T-they..... They" I didnt get to finish because I broke down crying.

"Dest? Destiny?! Destiny whats wrong?! Why you crying!? Whats the matter!?" He threw all these questions

"They took her" I finally said

"Shes gone"

"Who, Destiny?! Whose gone?!" He asked in a rush.

"Marley"

The line went dead. I looked at my phone and it died.

I chucked it across the room.

In 5 minutes the boys arrived.

They looked around the room and came and comforted me.

They helped me up and helped me collect my needs. I chucked my stuff in my suitcase and brought it to the car.

The car was in silence throughout the journey. No one coughed. Nothing. No shuffling. No coughing. No sniffing. Nothing.

Louis helped me out. I still stayed silent.

we were at Harry's apartment.

They all got inside, I just stood in the doorway.

How could they do this?

A cousin, a best friend?

Why go that far?!

"Its what they do" Louis said.

I looked up from the floor at him, confused.

"You said that out loud" I said reading my mind.

Harry came over and hugged me.

"Its just the beginning" I said.

Harry looked at me confused.

"Thats what they said. Does that mean they will take more people?" I asked looking into his green orbs.

"Possibly" he said quietly pulling away.

Niall collapsed onto the couch.

"Niall" I said walking over to him and hugging him. He hugged back tightly.

I heard him sniffing and I felt his tears drop on me. They were so close. Those two. Closer than most normal cousins are. Closer than bananas and their skins.

"What do we do?" I asked them.

"You!" Nicki scoffed. Im so not in the mood.

"What you gunna do? Pull out your little necklace from daddy and use your powers" she mocked like a little girl.

"I'm not in the mood"

"Not in the mood! None of us are! Your not the only one upset. Niall, your letting down mumsy"

I got up and punched her straight in the jaw. Being in this lifestyle has changed me! Im not proud of myself for doing this. I know I'm letting my parents down.

They never wanted me violent. I got told so many stories about my mum. I got told everyone knew her, she was kind caring, considerate. I'm like her but I've changed. I just want this hell to stop.

I got pushed out my thoughts when she punched me back. Ow that hurt.

I head butted her. We both fell to the floor. I now feel sick. I feel sick! AH that hurt.

They dragged Nicki out the room.

Louis comforted me.

"Ah I feel sick" I yelled because of my pain.

"That was a good one" he chuckled

After a while my head stopped hurting and my phone was ringing.

"Hello" I answered

"Dest! Its Tiff! I heard what happened to Marl! Where are you?!"

"Harrys"

"Ok im coming over"

I hung up.

"Tiffany is coming over" I told them all

In 10 minutes she arrived. She burst through the door.

"Where is she?" She asked

She found me and hugged me tight.

"Tiff!" Harry called

She pulled back and looked at him. My eyes got blurry and got filled with tears. I let them roll down.

"We need your help!"

"I'm not joining the gang again" she said scared.

"Why please" Louis begged joining in.

"I've tried so hard to forget it behind and when I finally have and stopped having nightmares of those horrible, horrible days. You ask me to come back" her voice was muffled at the end and I saw tears roll down her face.

"I dont want to go back" she broke down.

I comforted her and Harry did too.

"I only came to see if you guys were ok" she said when she calmed down.

"Tiff!" Niall said and passed her a gun.

"Protect yourself, yeah" he smiled. She took it.

"Any of them come. I'll blow their heads off" she giggled lighting up the mood.
