My Best Friend's Brother

Chapter 18

-Zayn

"Nick? I thought Harry kicked your ass." Nick gets angry and smacks me. I turn back to look at him.

"Until I can get my Louis back, Harry cannnot have you back." He gets up and walks around the basement.

"You'll never get Louis back! He is safer around Javadd than you!" He laughs and looks back over to me.

"Then I guess we'll be raising that little nugget together." He smiles down at me.

"Do you have a phone on you?" I shake my head lying. I thought I would get away with it until my phone starts buzzing in my back pocket.

'Been around the world don't speak the language

but your booty don't need explaining, all

I really need to understand is when you talk dirty to me!'

I cringe at my ringtone. I know it's Harry calling because that's his specific ringtone. Nick reaches in my pocket and grabs my phone.

"Nice try, Zayn." He answers it and walks out.

-Harry

I know it's not the best idea to call Zayn's phone while someone is probably holding him hostage but someone answers.

"Styles! Haven't heard from you since you tried to kick my ass." Grimshaw.

"Listen, Grimshaw. If it wasn't for me getting snacks for Zayn, I would totally have your a-"

"Save it, Harry. I have Zayn here and I'm one step away from killing him and your unborn child so be careful with what you say." He chuckles then sighs.

"Where are you keeping him?"

"That's for me to know and for you to find out. If you're lucky."

"I'm gonna find you Nick, you just wait." I hang up and walk back to Javadd and Louis.

"Well?" I sigh and sit down.

"Do you remember when we went to that computer camp when we were twelve?" He looks down and nods.

"I'm not proud of it." I stand up and hand him my phone.

"Well, with what you remember, we can back into Zayn's phone and track him." He grabs my phone and smiles.

"If I can remember the formula correctly! Oh my god! I'm starting to sound like Zayn." He stops smiling.

"Yeah and it's making me sad. Come on! I want my Zaynie back!" He rushes over to his computer. He plugs up my phone and types very fast.

"Shoot!" I rush over and look at the screen with confusion.

"What the hell is that?" I looked at him confused and Louis rushes over and looks confused at the screen as well.

"The code that would allow me to get into Zayn's phone and find the location has all of a sudden been changed. Instead of it being 10986545098653235642, it's 10986545098653234643!"

"So what's the difference?" I really didn't know but Javadd looks at me like I'm stupid.

"The three, Harry! Three!" He smacks me in the back of the head and continues typing. I rub my head and continue to see him type.

"How long would it take to try and change the code?" Javadd shrugs and continues typing.

"Maybe 3 weeks." He presses one more key and gets up.

"Where are you going?" I look at the computer and it shows a loading bar.

"I'm tired! I'm going to bed." He grabs Louis' hand and walks out.

"We'll continue tomorrow, Haz!" I hear him yell from the hall. I won't sleep until Zayn is back here with me.

-Javadd

Yes, I am worried about my brother but I can't keep worrying about it. I'm confident we'll find him. I don't want to get mum into this because then she'll never trust me again and send Zayn back to Covington. I can't have that, no no no. I lay in my bed with Louis playing with my hair, I'm laying on his stomach just looking at the wall.

"What if we don't find him and Nick has his way with him?" I try and hold back tears.

"Don't worry, J. We'll find him."

"No, we must keep searching. You call the police and I'll keep tracking his phone."

"But what happened to sleep?"

"My brother and my unborn niece or nephew's life is more important."

-Zayn

I look up at the ceiling and think about how thirsty and hungry I have become. I hear the basement door close and Nick comes down with a cat in his arms.

"You must be hungry so I brought you some food." He sits down in front of me with the white fluffy cat, causing me to let out a small sneeze.

"You're allergic to cats?" I scoff and roll my eyes.

"No. I just sneeze when I feel an asshole in the room." He ignores my sarcasm and coos at his cat.

"He's just being rude. Isn't that right, Poptart." The cat looks at him then looks at me with a hiss. He sets the cat down the looks back at me.

"I didn't realise how sexy you look." He takes off my glasses and throws them to the side. He starts caressing my cheek then leans in to kiss me. I tense up at the touch and try to move away.

"Don't worry, I'm not going to rape you." He leans in for another kiss then moves down to my neck.

-Javadd

"What?" I quickly sit up from my computer and rub my eyes. The morning light shines through the blinds making me groan. I check my computer and type a few things then make my way downstairs to see Harry sitting on the couch.

"You alright?" He doesn't answer. He just stares off into place. I walk towards the kitchen to see Louis leaning against the island, just staring into space like Harry.

"Everyone is dazing today." I walk behind him and wrap my arms around his waist. He starts to giggle then turns around.

"Is that my jacket?" I notice him wearing my varsity jacket from last year's football season.

"It smells like you and I'm going to miss you when you leave for school today." He whispers to me and smiles.

"I don't want to go to school today."

"You need your education."

"Zay-"

"The police already called and they are investigating. He isn't going appear just because you want him to."

"He's my brother." He puts his hand on cheek and smiles lightly.

"He'll be back with us before you know it." I lean down and kiss him.

"I'll see you later." I run out to the living room to see Harry holding up his knees to his chest rocking back and forth on the couch.

"Harry, you ready to go?" He gets up from the couch and walks over to me.

"Yeah." I notice that his eyes are puffy from crying. I drive us to school and park in my usual spot. I grab my bag and get out of the car but I notice Harry stays.

"Harry?"I look over to Harry but he's hiding in his jacket.

"You alright?"

"Does it look like I'm alright?" He turns to me with tears clouding up his green eyes.

"What if Nick kills him? I'll lose the love of my life and our baby. I can't have that happen." He sobs into his hands. I rub his back while he cries.

"I understand what you're saying. I've been with him since we were in the womb. He's everything to me." Harry stops crying and looks up at me.

"You know what? Fuck it. We have to find him." I start the car back out of my parking space.

Shit just got real.
