Reliant

Chapter 6

Brea's POV

Trey and i were sitting in a small cafe having a coffee, well i was having a chai latte and all of a sudden bullets came in our direction and as instinct Trey pushed me and him under the table. "What the hell!" i exclaimed and we both pulled our guns out and fired at the 5 guys shooting at us. Screams were coming from the people around us but they werent the targets. I shot one of the knees and he was writhing in agony but hey he can feel the pain. Fuck im outta bullets, i ran towards them and dodged their bullets then physically fought them. Trey was also physically fighting them. I kicked this guy in the face and smashed his head into a metal pole and took his gun and shot him dead. A guy was still shooting at me and Trey but we kept dodging however before i could even realise i got bashed to the ground by the guy shooting and he was punching the fuck outta me. I moved my head and he cursed in pain since he punched the pavement and i kneed him in the balls and for the second he was distracted i flipped him off and grabbed the gun beside me and shot him, i then shot the guy Trey was fighting. "You alright?" he asked and i nodded. "Lets get outta here" i said and winced slightly from the aches and pains coming from my body. "I wanna know who the hell those fuckers were!" he said as we ran back to our complex. "Makes us both" and as we ran into the complex people noticed we had blood all over us. We walked into Niall's office and lets say when he saw us covered in blood he wasnt happy. "What the fuck happened to you?" he said. "To put it short boss, we were attacked by 5 guys in broad day light out in the open with guns very evidently aimed at us" Trey said and Niall was thinking and called in Liam and Louis and when Louis saw me he so obviously wanted to run over to me and hug me but we couldn't. "Trey and Brea were just attacked a few streets away by 5 men, find out who they are and why they targeted them...NOW" and they hurried off. "We will find out who they are soon enough, meanwhile i want you both to be checked by the medics" and we left in silence. Once we got given the go ahead and had two stitches put in, it was 10pm and I was exhausted so I went up to my floor. I need to cut but I don't want to. I can't I can't I can't so it again but i need to, ugh fuck the pain and urges. I called the one person I could think of right now. "Brea are you ok?" Louis said worriedly. I was crying. "Please come to my floor, I need you. The cutting, the urges please" I sobbed. "I am coming right now hold on baby don't do anything" he replied and I could hear him coming. I hung up and dropped the phone and battled as I held the razor. "No don't no don't do it" "you have to, do it. It will help the pain" "it won't do you any good don't" "it has always helped you, just slice" my mind screamed at me and I'm pretty sure I was talking to myself. "BREA" Louis screamed running in and bolted over to me and the got the razor out of my hand even though I was slightly bleeding since I started a cut. "Hey I'm here it's ok now, shhhh I'm here" he soothed while holding me while I cried. I snuggled into him and clung to him. "I'm here now shhhh you're ok beautiful" he said and planted a kiss on the top of my head. We stayed like that for around 10 minutes when I lifted my head up and avoided making eye contact but he put his fingers under my chin and directed my face to his. He planted a soft kiss on my lips and I kissed him back. "I can't ever lose you" he whispered and I just did a sniffle. "Let's get you to bed" he said and helped me up off the floor. Before he helped me to bed he wiped the trickle of blood off my arm and kissed it. "I can stay with you if you like" he said as he tucked me into the duvet. I wanted him to sleep with me god I did but we couldn't. "No I think it's best if you sleep on the couch" I replied. "Fair enough. I love you Brea" he said and kissed my head. I can't say it back. It makes it too real and painful. "Goodnight Lou" I said and pecked his cheek. I knew he was a bit hurt and it killed me that I caused it but it's for the best. I wish I could love him and be able to tell him and show it around others but we can't.

*2 weeks later*
Brea's POV
Lou has stopped staying on my floor and honestly we haven't spoken that much. We both realise it's so hard to control our feelings and I know he is hurt that I didn't say I loved him back. I haven't moved off my floor much apart from a small fight we had last week which jusf injured us a bit but easy recovery. All the boys were down here in the bar getting pissed, I had 3 drinks but I wasn't even close to being drunk. Malcolm was very intoxicated and he does change quickly. I was wearing a pretty cleavage popping lounge sleeved top with shorts and the guys were definitely lapping it up. Malcolm has been eyeing me all night and I know others have noticed. I decided to head back to my floor and watch tv or something so I walked out of the main area and into the hallway when I felt myself being pushed into a wall forcefully. "Malcolm what are you doing let me go" I said shocked. He was trying to touch me and kiss me. "No I want to touch you" "Please Malc stop this isn't you, it's the drink. Let me go" I said trying to break free from him but he was too strong. "Malcolm I don't want to have to hurt you please let me go, you don't know what your doing" I said looking at him. He looked so sad but wasn't budging. "I want to be able to feel you, your so beautiful" he said trying to kiss me. "Please I'm begging you stop, this isn't right" I said pushing him away best I could. "I just want you to love me like you love Louis" he said with tears falling down his face but aggression still very evident. "I don't love hi-" "DONT LIE TO ME" he yelled and I soon heard footsteps and saw Harry, Liam, Trey and soon saw Louis and Niall who looked like they were going to murder. He was still groping me and I was trying to talk him out of this and I have the others the look of 'don't hurt him, I can handle it' and it took them a lot of restraint. "Please let me go, we can talk about this calmly and comfortably, Malc this isn't you". "IT IS NO GOOD!....all I want is for you to love me like you love him Brea, to have you look at me the way you look at him...it's all I want" he said with more tears but was getting more aggressive. "That's not true, those things don't happen mate" I said trying to lie convincingly. "ADMIT THE TRUTH, I DESERVE THAT MUCH" he roared and slapped me but I kept my cool and enforced them to stay back. I felt a tear slide out. "SAY IT" he yelled sobbing. "Alright fine..I admit it" I whimpered. "You admit what?" He said sternly. "That I'm in love with Louis and have been for years" I sobbed back all embarrassed and broken. I saw Louis's face with sadness, relief and fear of what Niall would do now he knows. "AGHHHH" Malcolm screamed and really tried to pull my clothes off but Niall and Trey pulled him back and punched him. "No don't hurt him please, he's upset!" I said pleadingly. While Niall and Trey spoke to Malcolm Louis came over and hugged me. "Get away from her now" Niall scowled at Louis and he backed off. "You are so lucky I haven't shot you yet" he spat looking at Louis. "I admitted I love him Niall, that doesn't mean he loves me back and it's not his fault I fell in love with him either. Shoot me instead" I said getting Niall's attention. "Doesn't mean he loves you back? He's head over heels for you Brea, don't deny what's most likely been happening between you under my nose" he replied flaring with anger.
