Darling // l.s (ON HOLD)

Back to louis' POV.

After our neighbor had left, the atmosphere of the room had changed dramatically, it almost felt as if what had happened a few minutes ago, didn't happen at all. If you ignored the cold sweat, unrhythmic heartbeat, and fear circulating throughout my body that is.

I looked over to Liam with worry in my eyes as he just stood and blankly stared at me with a slightly parted mouth.

"Um Liam, are you okay? Wha- what just happened?" I couldn't make sense of how everything just went down, it seems like whatever is stuck with us is stronger than I thought, which gave me a stomach sick feeling.

"You louis" Liam replied with a voice just above a whisper. "What?" I replied, what about me? Surely it didn't cause all of this. "It said your name Louis, it's here for you." Liam finished. My heart dropped at his final words, me? This thing is here for me? What does that even mean!

"Guys we have to go, like, right now," Niall said, panic sleeping through his voice as he stumbles to grab the car keys. Liam continued to stare as I stared back, this thing, wants me.

Niall returned shortly after nearly tripping over the carpet, breaking Liam and I both out of our stance. "I got the keys, let's get out of this damned house and then we can think of where we'll go? Okay? Okay." Niall has said, more to himself than us.

As Niall pulled open the front door, we heard a large bang come from somewhere from the upstairs, as if something large had fallen. Well that's our que, I'm out. All three of us ran through the front door before frantically locking it and getting to the car.

"This may not be the right time, but, I told you guys" I had said, trying to break the uncomfortable silence and tension in the air as we were catching our breaths. Judging by their facial expressions, it did no help.

"Hey Lou?" Niall replied moments after,

"What?" I asked hesitantly,

"Shut up."

Noted. I nodded my head before looking at the clock that was lit up with the start of the car. 3:07 AM. The witching hour. I didn't know a time could cause my body to get chills before today.

"Hell to the no" Niall muttered, as Liam's bedroom light faintly turned on. Niall shifted the gears and nearly gave me whiplash as he reversed the car back to the right and sped off.

As we were aimlessly driving with erratic heartbeats, Niall broke the silence, "As much as I hate saying this, but we have no where to go, no ones awake or even willing to help us out! I mean if we told the cops we'd get suspected of being high on drugs and from what I've see-" I had cut off Niall's nervous rambling before he too got me more anxious than I was.

"Calm down Niall," hypocritical of me, I know. "We're not going to call the cops, and frankly I'm not returning to that house tonight." Or hopefully ever. I pondered for a moment before suggesting, "Lets just go and sleep in your nans driveway for the night and we'll go to our appointment with the priest tomorrow."

Niall's eyes lit up at the thought before frantically  nodding.

We looked over to Liam for input, "when did you call a priest?" He asked, "that's a yes from me," Niall said as he started driving to his Nan, Martha's house. Hopefully she'll make those delicious chocolate chip cookies tomorrow for us. My stomach growled at the far away thought. Only I would think of food in a time like this. I rolled my eyes at myself before slowly settling back in my seat and watching out the window, seeing dark shadows here and there, but thinking and hoping nothing of it.

Harry's P.O.V

Once returning upstairs I heard slight conversation downstairs coming from the three, but I didn't pay much attention. Just the thought of Liam had my anger fueling up again, thirsty for more vengeance and lesson teaching, I traveled out of my Darlings room and into Liam's.

I looked around for anything that I could wreck, and immediately took notice of the large dresser he had, with some questionably priceless antiques or heirlooms on them. I smirked and knocked the dresser over with ease, living off the loud sound it emitted. Downstairs I could hear the rise of commotion and slamming of what I assumed is the front door.

Once I heard the start of the car, i then slowly turned on Liam's dim lighting, and peaked out the window just to see the car racing off into the middle of night.

"See you soon, my pet." I whispered out before vanishing from the room.
