Hastily I made my way inside following after Abigail who had seriously just lost it all. I could tell it by the look in his eyes and I could tell that it was a bad time to be interfering, especially after I knew nothing about what was happening. “Niall!” She yelled aimlessly as she opened the door quickly. “Niall for the love of God get out here now!” She screamed viciously as the silence faltered and out came the familiar bodies I learnt to know. The cold air outside was suddenly a day on the beach to me. It was colder here. I swear the hairs on my body raised the longer I stayed. The darkness started creeping in, in more ways than one. “What the hell are you doing screaming his name throughout the house like that?!” Liam's voice banged against the walls of the house, its depth reaching a place inside me I didn’t want to go to. “You’d better go home, NOW!” he whisper-yelled as his hand tensed and released when he dropped the crowbar. “What the hell are you doing in this house?!” Abigail asked frantically. I could understand her anger, but this was too much for me to take in right now.
“Abby think rationally-” Niall spoke up as he walked up to her. She resisted, stepping away from him as he rolled his eyes with a sigh.
“-Don’t ‘Abby’ me! This is my grandfathers house are you insane or something? How fucking dare you Niall!” She blurted out and the hesitance in her voice I was so used to was long gone by now, “You need to leave if you don’t bloody know your place!” Harry stormed in and my eyes widened. I didn’t feel for all of this right now. “You shut up!” Abby spoke loudly, turning her head to Harry who seemed furious. Utterly and completely furious. “Haz… Ay. Maybe you should go catch some air. C'mon I’ll come with you. Niall can handle this.” Liam breathed out quietly, placing a hand on Harry’s extremely tensed up shoulder. “Yeah just go. Just fucking go before I call the police.” Abigail said with a snarl as Harry’s hands found their way around her neck. His eyes went dark, even the moon was afraid to shine in its presence. “Don’t. Test. Me. Do you hear me?!” he yelled tightening his hand around her throat as if squeezing a stress ball.
“Harry pull away! Release her now!” Niall’s voice echoed through the house. Harry’s grip never hindered. Harry said nothing. Instead, his eyes went wider as his final huff left his pale lips. Abigail’s face became red he cheeks becoming flush as the blood struggled to circulate throughout her body. Her feet were now slightly tangling as she struggled with his hands. The moment slowed down and felt like forever, but only lasted for what was about 10 seconds. My heart pounded. Do something. Do. Something. “Harry let her go!” I yelled after finally winning the internal battle with myself. The room fell silent. Even more than before, Harry dropped Abigail to the ground as she coughed and spluttered. “You know we need the money. I’m sorry it had to come to this princess, I’ll explain everything later I promise…” Niall spoke from a distance across the room as he knelt to the floor and rubbed Abby’s back, she continued to try and gain her breath.
Harry made his way to me and the smirk on his lips was anything but good. “Just wait. Just you wait…” he said coldly, with a quiet glare. “Harry I ju-” I tried to speak, but he interrupted me with his finger on my lip. “-No, no. Don’t worry my lovely little girl. Don’t ‘explain’ yourself.” He snapped, placing a hand on my cheek and running it through my hair. Giving it a hard and fast tug as I yelped. He chuckled, turning sharply on his heel and walked towards the door. “Louis! Bring down the money Zayn's waiting. Liam. Niall. Let’s go. Bring the girls and make sure their silenced for a little bit. I’m tired of speaking.”
“Wh-What are you talking abo-” Abigail asked as she was finally able to speak. She was soon cut off by Liam’s hand over her mouth with a cloth. She blacked out. “Your turn.” He snarled, walking towards me and covering my nose and mouth with the cloth. One inhale sent me over, my eyes rolled back as the room darkened and my body went completely limp in his arms.
