Freak [On Hold]

Chapter 24: A good thing turns bad

I said something a while ago how life works out whether you like it or not. I said that everything was going to be okay between me and Louis, things were going to be better, now that he knew. I was in the right mindset when I showed up at Becca's house. I was thinking if Louis could except who I was maybe she could too.

I say this because life, I now know, is a winding road. You never know when the next turn is or how sharp it's going to be. It may be a smooth curve or a sharp turn too close to your death. I thought I was on a smooth curving road, one with very little surprises. I hit a bump. I hit a huge damn boulder in the middle of my road, and it broke my heart.

If you were someone who had known me and told me you loved me, and had said I could tell you anything, I accept that offer. I would honor those words. I don't think Becca felt the same way.

I arrived at her house and I got right to the point. We talked a little bit and then I told her thinking she would understand just as Louis had. I was thinking she'd laugh and cry and say everything was okay. Most of all I wanted her to kiss me.

But like I said before, life is unpredictable and another thing I've learned is that Love sucks.

Becca apparently was afraid of me and kicked me out. She was crying and screaming, I was crying and screaming, it was a right mess. Then she called me a freak and slammed the door. I was awestruck, the girl who I admired so very deeply and the girl who had said she loved me had called me a freak. A freak. It felt just like home.

I then walked away with tears streaming down my face, and my heart shattered in my chest as it began to rain, well more like pour. I was too broken to care.

And now we bring ourselves back to the present. I now stand on the side of street staring back at Becca's glimmering house, the rain soaking every inch of my shivering body.

I decided in my mind that I would give up on love. There honestly was no point in trying if everything I ever loved was taken away from me.

I sighed wiping the tears from my eyes and spotting a pay phone in the distance.

I was meant to have walked home seeing as it was only a short distance away, but I couldn't seem to do it. I needed Louis.

I quickly punched in his number and he quickly picked up with an unsure hello?

"Hi Louis this is Harry, I'm calling from a pay phone and I really need you to come pick me up."

Louis' voice was frantic on the other end.

"Harry it's pouring rain out. Why are you at a goddamn pay phone?! are you alright?!"

"I'm fine just come pick me up. Please. And can you bring the other boys. I prefer their company."

"Okay."

And then the line went dead.

Crying, I sunk down against the wall adjacent to the phone, the rain sending all hell down upon me.

I continued to cry and feel sorry for myself, and think why did life hate me? It seemed as if even the universe just loved bringing hell into my life. I mean- my thoughts were interrupted when I heard the voice.

"Harry, over here."

I frowned turning to see the unmissable face of Ivan peering out from within an alleyway not too far off. His yellow eyes seem to glow and sparkle in the rain.

I rose to my feet and began walking towards Ivan. It was almost automatic. Like I wasn't controlling my legs at all. Even when Louis' car pulled up beside me I ignored him. I could even hear him and the boys getting out and calling my name, I ignored. I was intent on reaching Ivan. But Ivan was quick and soon began running down the alleyway yelling at me to follow. So I did. I was confused, I was tired, I was upset, broken and so many other emotions. I needed to see Ivan, an old friend would help, but why was he running?

I ran and ran, the alleyway seemed to go on forever. I could hear the repetitive shout of my name from Louis and the boys who were not too far behind me. It occurred to me that this scene, this moment was becoming more and more like my dream. I wasn't thinking straight at the time, I could've stopped myself, because I knew what came next.

Ivan turned off through a door and I followed. The room was nothing it was pitch black and I couldn't see a thing. I couldn't see Ivan at all. Not even his eyes. But I could hear Louis as he and the other three boys joined me in the room. I could hear his voice shouting in the darkness.

"Harry what was that all about!?,are you alright?! Let's go home!"

I still ignored. I was waiting for something a sound, a bit of movement, something. I knew Ivan was in this room. I could feel it. I never got to investigate because the room was soon flooded with light and I could see Louis, Niall, Liam and Zayn behind me, almost pressed up against the wall and in front of me made my breath run cold.

There stood not Ivan but the magenta shapeshifter lady I had seen so long ago, Mckinley, clutching two very long frayed ropes, two or three guards and the man himself.

Mr. Seneca.
