Chapter Three; All Bad

___________________________

I layed in the bed with my eyes closed. Sleeplessness, it's a weird thing. Every time I go to sleep, a nightmare of my past creeps up on me, and I cry all over again. As cliché as it sounds, I just wish I could forget it all, and everything go back to how it used to be, or at least happier.

Louis feet padded against the floor while he walked over to the bed.

"You mind if I lay here too, mate?", He whispered.

Should I ? I mean.. Where else is he going to lay? He shouldn't try anything, right ?

"Uh, yeah sure.." I mumbled, slightly scooting over. Pulling out my cellphone, I dialed my dad's number, but he didn't answer. It's late, I'll call him in the morning. I closed my eyes, and sighed laying there till I could actually fall asleep.

Me and Louis both woke up to the sound of music; my phone. I reached for it off of the stand and put it to my ear.

"Yeah?" I said, still half asleep.

"Hello. Harry Styles, Is that you?" A unfamiliar voice asked through the phone.

"Yeah it's me..Who's this?" I sighed, sitting up in the bed.

"I'm Sheriff Grey. This morning Lola Summers, and David Styles have been found dead in their home. Lola summers was shot twice in the head, and stabbed five times in the abdominal area. David Styles was shot once in the head and stabbed six times in the back. We have some paper-" before he could finish I hung it up and threw the phone on the ground.

My breathing increased and I held my head in my hands as I bawled. How could someone be so brutal? They were everything to me. I hiccuped out quick sobs as my mind went blank.

"Are you okay, bud ?" I felt the bed squeak and weight be removed before Louis stood in front of me.

"Don't.. I'll be fine." I said, trying to wipe my tears but they just wouldn't stop coming. What's wrong with me?

"Harry your not fine, let me help you." Louis sat down in front of me on the floor and pulled me into his lap. I just let my body mold into his as he cradled me. This feels so foreign, someone caring.

This wasn't supposed to be like this, I hiccuped. I wasn't supposed to loose everyone I had. I just wanted a quick vacation, before collage starts. My heart feels like it's going through the end of a garbage disposal. Like someone pressed the on button, a long time ago, and I'm going to crumble in any moment.

After a while, I sniffled, lifting my body off of louis and grabbed a tissue on the night stand.

"I'm scared" I whispered as he stood up, walking towards me.

"Don't be scared, Harry. It will get better. " Louis gave me a reassuring hug.

"Everyone is gone." I sobbed into his chest.

"Shh, it's okay. I'm here for you, I'll take care of you." He soothed, rubbing circles in my back.

I felt like a baby, and probably was annoying Louis to death but right now I didn't care. I need to let that out.

After calming myself down, I stepped back from Louis, and cleaned my face up.

"Can we get out if this motel ? " I asked, quietly.

"Of course. Where do you want to go?" Louis asked, rubbing his hands against his pants to straighten them.

"Well.. I don't want to go back to that place, all of those memories. So I'll start fresh in another state, a new college too.. Could I crash at your place for a couple months ? I just want to get my money together an-" I explained but Louis cut me off with a small laugh.
