Adventures Without Maeve

10. Facing It

I hope you guys enjoy the song I included! I have been loving it! The picture of Harry is what I imagine him wearing for the most part of this chapter!

Enjoy the chapter! And please do not forget to comment and vote! :)

I wake up to knocks on the front door. It seems like I am not meant to do much sleeping this week. I get out of bed just as I hear voices. Someone must have answered it for me. 

"Daemon?" I hear Louis ask. "Are you okay? Yeah, no its all good. Yeah, I will get him." I can only hear Louis' voice. I race down the stairs. 

"Hey, I'm here." I say, stepping off the stairs. Daemon just stares at me. "How did you get here?" 

"Birthday, remember?" Daemon asks. "Turned eighteen? Mum has no power over me now." 

"Right." I say, nodding slowly. "You had enough money to get here? How did you even know where I was?" 

"Really Harry? It isn't that hard to Google your name." Right. Famous and all. 

"Are you okay?" I ask him. 

"Yeah, yeah. It's all good. I mean, considering, you know?" He says, looking down. "I just had to get away from her. She pretends like nothing happened, I can't even talk about Maeve near her." 

"Well you are more than welcome here. We are a little tight on space, but something tells me that you won't mind sleeping on a couch." I say, raising my eyebrows. 

"Yeah, no big deal. Sorry for just showing up like this." He says, sighing. 

"Who is at the door at this time?" Niall says, walking out of his room, rubbing his eyes. "Daemon? Hey, mate!" 

"Hey, Niall!" He says, back. Soon all the boys are at the door greeting Daemon. 

"It's not a problem, you should know that. But we aren't here for much longer." I say, shrugging a little. 

"Yeah, I only need like a day or two here, if that's cool?" Daemon says. 

"Of course! Now come in and get some rest!" I say, shutting the door behind him. 

"Thank you for this." He says, smiling slightly. 

"No need to thank me, mate." I say, shaking my head. "We'll talk more in the morning, alright?"

"Yeah, sure!" He says, settling down on the couch. 

--------------------------------------

"So how have things been?" I ask Daemon. We decided to got out by ourselves and get some coffee. 

"It's been hard." He says, honestly. "I miss her a lot. And it just happened so fast." 

"I know" I say, nodding. "Wasn't enough time. But to be honest I could have all the time in the world to prepare for it, and it still would not be enough. Never would be." 

"God, I can't even begin to imagine how you feel about it all." He says, shaking his head. "You guys were so in love."

"We were. And I still am. But some days are harder than others. It's just something that I will have to get used to. Like sometimes I even forget, you know?" He nods. "I'll go to call and then remember about two rings into it. And the pain sinks in all over again." 

"Indie is a complete wreck." He says, shaking his head. If my memory serves right, him and Indie did have something going on before everything happened. "I tried to get her to come with me, but she said she needed a little quiet time. And that she might join me soon."
