Only Half a Heart

Chapter Twelve

Louis's Pov~

It hurt to leave her, but it had to be done. I could hurt her ever. She seemed so keen on having me stay though. I just have to forget about it, that is over. I wasn't going to take any chances with this, so I just left. I didn't want anyone to know where I was going and there would be no good byes. Most importantly, there was no looking back. I just hope Eleanor will give the curse to Kara, it doesn't matter when or how.

When I was off castle grounds, I shifted and ran to the docks. I hopped into one of the boat and shifted. I paddled off until the wind pick up and guided me to who knows where. I doesn't really matter where just somewhere. I laid down in the boat and let the rocking of the boat induce sleep.

...

I woke up as the boat hit the beach of the island. It wasn't cold and it wasn't warm. It was barren, no trees, no grass, nothing. I saw a log at the other end of the beach. I went over to it and sat down. It felt hallow, but strangely more. I rolled it away a bit from where it was and saw a hole.

There was a light far below. I took a step closer to see what it was and I slipped in. It felt like forever that was falling down this slim hole. Finally, I hit the water luckily not cracking all my bones. I suck deep into the water. I swam to the top and gasped for air not finding any. I soon slipped into some sort of unconscious state, but I still knew what was happening around me.

Someone pulled my out of the water and I heard murmuring. Then, it all went black.

Eleanor's Pov~

I looked around trying to find someone to yell at or plead with or something. I saw Andrew walking through the snow, Fawn holding onto his wrist trying to stop him. I ran out to him.

"Andrew, what's wrong?" I asked.

"Don't tell her." Fawn pleaded.

"Don't tell me what?" I asked.

"That Louis is leaving you cause he doesn't want to hurt you." Andrew said quickly so Fawn couldn't stop him.

"He already did." I frowned.

Both there expression dropped and Fawn let go of Andrew's wrist.

"I'm so sorry." Fawn said. "I-I wish there was something I could of done or could do..."

"I know how it feels to lose the person you belong with. I'll help you through this, I promise." Andrew said and hugged me.

I didn't know what else to do or say so I just cried. Something I had become so familiar with in my life. I really wish it wasn't such a common thing, and I wish my life wasn't like this. But who can decide how their life is? The crying would stop one day, I just wish it could be sooner rather then later.

Andrew saw no point to just standing there as I cried so, he took me to my room. When we got there, I crawled onto my bed and curled in a ball.

...

Weeks later~

I shut everyone out not seeing a point to letting them in. No one really knew how to help. Andrew even gave up. Kara had gotten the curse Louis wanted her to have, but she promised me she won't use it. I had read it's effects over and over. It would make all the pain and tear go away, but that would mean I would have to forget Louis. Every memory of him, the good and bad. I couldn't do that, though I was tempted many times.

Someone who periodically come by with food. I barely ate anything, but why should I? Some days I just pushed it any refusing to eat, but they forced me to eat.
