Louis's POV

Why would Niall think I killed Nathan? I didn't even know Nathan was dead. I wasn't aware of any of this. I would never think of doing this. Why would he think I would do it? So many questions flowed through my mind.

"I would never do that babe. Who told you this?"
"It was Caleb. He told me. I'm scared to think it's true." By this time, he was sobbing.
"I swear to you Niall. It's not true. None of it." I was trying not to cry.
"What if you're lying to me? I don't know what to think anymore Louis."

I couldn't bare the idea of losing Niall to a complete lie. I can't let my life be like how it was before.

"Please don't believe Caleb. He's lying to you just to break us up. He wants to get to me. He knows I want to be with you not him. So that's why he's telling you these things. You have to believe me Niall." I know him well enough to know how stubborn he is when it comes to persuading.

"I know I shouldn't believe it, but people lying to me has just become a default thing now, you know?" I frowned at his comment. Seeing him sad made everything so much harder to deal with.

"I know, I get it, but you have to believe me. Caleb is trying to get to you, so he could try to get with me. Too many people are doing this and it's tearing us apart. They're getting what they wanted. We can't let them get what they want. We have to power through all of this. Like we did with all of the other things. The things we thought we would never get through, became the easiest things to pass. I know that deep down, you believe that I didn't do it. Right Niall?" Worry clouded my eyes.

"Caleb is a large obstacle in this relationship and I know he would lie just to get to you and have me gone. I had a dream about this Louis. I saw you surrounded by a pool of blood. None of it was on you, just around. A large smile was plastered on your face and a body was slumped in front of you. I think that dream was warning me for what came ahead. I think Caleb is lying. He said that he had evidence though Louis. What if he somehow got your fingerprints or some shit... He might have been trying to throw me off, but what if?" The worry in his voice increased.

"It will be okay Niall. I promise." With that, I kissed his forehead and he went back home.

I couldn't sleep after he left. Memories between Niall and I flooded my mind. When we went to the aquarium, when we went to the field, when I found him crying in the halls, when we talked to our moms about it. Then I thought about my life without him and how I would be. I thought of all the girls I would be going out with. Although I would be miserable because I wouldn't have Niall, the guy I've liked since 9th grade and he would still be mad fun of. He probably wouldn't be alive. If only Caleb and Eleanor hadn't gone to our school. It would've made my relationship with Niall so much easier. Then again, relationships are never easy right? All I know now is that I need to talk to Caleb, when it isn't 6am.

I woke up to the sounds of birds chirping outside of my window. I turned around and saw that Niall wasn't with me and frowned. I remembered that I had to talk to Caleb today. I sighed loudly then got dressed into my Nirvana t-shirt, some black skinny jeans, a black beanie and some sunnies. I wore this the day I found Niall in the halls. It brought me so many happy memories so I thought that I would wear it. I need to feel as if I still have a part of Niall in my life. I need that sort of motivation right now. I thought that I could just drive myself to Caleb's house, but I'm not sure where it is.

I texted Caleb and told him I'm on my way and to give me the address. As soon as I got there, I hesitated because, what if he threatens to hurt Niall? Although I knew this was the right thing to do. I know he's framing me, but I have to get him to tell me. I have to get him to tell me that he did this. He killed Nathan and I know he did. If Niall really believes Caleb, this could take everything up in flames. I heard a knocking on my window and Caleb was there.

"Hey mate. What're you doing here?" He asked with a grin.
"Well you told Niall something about Nathan and I and I need you to tell him all of it is false. He doesn't believe me. He needs to hear the truth from you. And you and I both know that you killed Nathan. So I need you to tell Niall the truth and tell him you did it. I would appreciate it very much if you did this."

He chuckled at my words, "Oh Louis. You think I'm gonna give up that easily. I told Niall to not talk to you if he didn't want me to tell the cops that you killed Nathan. And that was just to separate the two of you. I guess it didn't work because Niall went and told you all of this. So now would be the time to tell you, I did kill Nathan and now that you know, I will have to kill you too."

"No,Caleb. What do you think you're doing? Put the knife down please." He approached me slowly with his knife as I pleaded.

The grin on his face grew wider with every step he took. I heard a blow noise and I watched as Caleb fell to the ground. Police stood behind him with tranquilizers in hand. I looked further behind the police and saw Niall. I ran through them and hugged Niall with tears collecting on the shoulder of his shirt.

"Why did you do this?" I whimpered.
"I found a bloody knife in his car and immediately called the police. I am so glad I got here when I did. If i wasn't here right now, you would've been dead Louis. Be more careful next time please? I don't wanna risk losing you." My shoulder became wet, indicating his tears making their way down his face.

"Thank you." I whispered.
