"Liam?" I ask worried etched on my face. He shakes his head and walks away. My stomach tightens but I push it aside and face Niall. I smile tears brimming my eyes.

"Leilani, I'm sorry." Niall said. I shook my head.

"It's ok, it's fine." I smile sadly. "I love you." Niall nods his head and my heart drops a little when he doesn't reply back, I just ignore it. I study Niall's features, his scratches gone and scars almost fully healed. His eyes are dulled and sad even though he holds a happy face. His smile is worn down and the corners are slightly turned up. His face is tired even though he's been sleeping for a while. His hair is long and brown seeping through, his tips are only blonde. He has creases along his smile and bags under his eyes.

"Are you alright Leilani?" Niall asks.

"Yea, are you?" I ask worry etched in my features.

"I've been better." He chuckles. I laugh, but it isn't real. I want to smile and laugh, but it's all fake, I can't bring myself to do it.

Niall swings his legs around off the bed. He goes to the bathroom and changes. In a few minutes he has returned in skinny jeans and a sweatshirt. He returns to his bedroom as I follow. We pass some people and they cheer welcoming Niall back. They run spreading the news.

When we return to the bedroom Niall runs to the bathroom and locks the door. I walk to the bed and cover up in the covers. I fall asleep soon.

I wake up and it's dark outside. Niall is breathing slowly, happiness washes over me as my boyfriend is back. Is he even my boyfriend? What is he?

I close my eyes and I feel the bed creak and hot breath is fanned over my neck. He gets up and walks to the bathroom again. Once the door is slammed I sit up in bed and stare at the door with light shining from underneath it. I slowly walk towards the door leaning against the wall near it.

I hear soft mumbles.

"Oh god please help me. I can't take it! Take him away from me! He's haunting my soul!" My heart drops as I listen to Niall talk to himself. He's going chaotic. I slowly walk back to bed. I stare at the ceiling worries clouding my mind, worries and guilt fogging my senses.

I slip into darkness soon after.

I wake up, bliss flowing on me, everything that's wrong, now gone. That soon diminishes when I see Niall mumbling softly while rocking back and forth with his knees pressed into his chest, my breathing hitches and I open my mouth. Nothing comes out but a squeak. Niall's head snaps up to me.

"Oh Leilani, you're awake? I didn't notice." he slowly gets up.

"What were you doing?" I ask shakily. I look in his eyes and guilt cloud them. They gloss over and turn a grey color. I expect an answer but all I get it a fleeing Niall.
