Bitten (One Direction Vampire Fanfic)

Chapter 7

Zayn's POV

Jasmine hasn't left the room she's been staying in ever since they all came to rescue me from Carlos. Every night, I hear faint cries coming from her room. She's really worrying all of us. It's been a week, and she hasn't left her room, ate or gotten much sleep.

"We have to do something," Louis said.

"I'm going to go talk to her." I stated.

"The door is locked!" Harry informed me.

"Then I'll bust it down." I walked up to the locked down, leaving the rest of the boys in the kitchen and knocked on it. "Let me in Jasmine."

There was no response. I turned the handle and surprisingly, it opened. I walked in the room and she wasn't there. I walked into the bathroom in her room. "Oh no!" I whispered as I saw Jasmine laying there on the floor.

"Jasmine!" I shouted, shaking her shoulder. Jasmine's eyes fluttered open. I scooped her up into my arms.

"Go away," she said weakly.

"Why we're you laying on the bathroom floor?" I asked her, ignoring her demand for me to leave. Jasmine thought for a moment.

"I- I don't remember. Zayn, just leave me alone."

"I'm not leaving you in here alone. You've locked yourself in here for a week without talking to anyone. I hear you cry at night. What's wrong?"

Jasmine didn't answer, tears slid down her cheeks silently. "I can't tell you. I'm sure Louis knows." she cried.

I set her on the bed and ran out to Louis. "Louis I need to talk to you." Louis nodded his head and we went outside in the backyard to talk.

"What do you need lad?" he asked.

"Why aren't you telling anyone what wrong with her?!?! We've all been worried sick, trying to figure out what's wrong and you haven't even thought of telling us!" I grabbed the collar of his shirt as I pushed him against the side of the house. Louis pushed me off of him.

"It's her secret. The first day we met her, I was reading her mind and I came across her secret." he said. 

"What is it?"

"She's had depression since she was little. It got better but last week when she was in the fire. I- I read her mind..." Louis sounded like he was about to cry. "Zayn, she wanted to die."

My heart sank in my chest at Louis' words. I shook my head, not believing him. "You're lying."

"Do you really think I would lie?!?! You aren't the only one who loves her!" he spat. Anger boiled inside of me. I punched him hard I'm his jaw.

"If you love her so much then you would've told us!" I retorted before storming back into the house. I walked passed the boys and into Jasmine's room.

"Why!" I whispered weakly. Knowing that she wanted to die, made me so angry and hurt. It felt like someone ripped my heart out.

"W-what are you talking about?" she stuttered.

"You know exactly what I'm talking about!"

"Stop yelling!" she said.

"Why should I?" I questioned.

"You're overreacting."

"I don't think I am! Why did you want to die in that fire?"

"I don't know. My depression... it's coming back."

"Well make it go away."

"Its not that simple, Zayn!" she yelled back. "I think you should go now."
