Break away - Niall Horan Fan fiction

Break away - Chapter 11

*Lola's P.O.V*

Calum pauses. Nothing is said. The whole room is filled with a deafening silence as I wait for Calum's reaction. His expression is filled with a million emotions as they whizz through him. Confusion, anger and shock are the main emotions you can see painted on his normally smiling face. Everyone looks slightly confused as to what's happening.

"Cal?" Mae asks, bringing him back into reality. He looks around to her then back over to me. Tears are still in my eyes and I can't control my emotions as I wait for what he has to say. It's killing me. I have never seen Calum in any mood over than happy and I don't want to see him like this again.

"No. She can't do this to her." I hear him mumble as he runs his hands through his flat morning hair. I look back up at him and he walks towards the door. We remain in silence as he opens the door and leaves. Everyone follows him, including me, as he leads us down the stairs as he practically runs towards the car. Shit. No.

"Calum!" I shout at him as he flings open the door to the unlocked car. He looks over at me. Anger is powering his behaviour.

"Give me the keys." He demands as he holds his hand out. I look over to Ashton.

"Ash, please don't." I beg. He looks so torn.

"Tell me what's going on, Calum."

"Just give me the keys!" He shouts back. My hearts racing. He doesn't understand what will happen if he confronts her. Ashton reluctantly hands Calum the keys to his car. I look over at him as my lip trembles; it's so hard not to burst into tears right now. You can tell he is regretting his decision already. Calum drives off, speeding and I beg Harry to follow him.

We run across the street and jump into the car. My head is spinning from the concussion still and the stress isn't helping.

"I'm coming!" Ella shouts as her and Mia run behind us. If they come they'll find out. If they don't then they'll get annoyed that I'm hiding something from them. But some things I need to do by myself and this is one of them.

"Girls I know you're like sisters to me but I can do this by myself. I'm sorry." Understandingly, they nod and walk back to the others. Okay, well I wasn't expecting that reaction. I quickly get in the car and as soon as I shut the door Harry speeds off, not even giving me the opportunity to put my seatbelt on.

"You told him didn't you?" I don't say anything.

"I didn't think Calum really had this side to him. I thought - I thought - that he would be calm about it but he reacted worse than I could even imagine." I tell him.

"He cares...a lot. He cares about all of his friends a lot, we all do." I understand completely. If anyone laid a finger on any of my friends I'd hunt them down.

Calum pulls up on the road opposite to the hotel but there are no spaces for us to park. Shit. I need to stop him, now! Harry stops directly in front of the entrance and tells me to get out and he'll meet me in there. I thank him before clambering out.

"Calum! Calum!" I shout as he crosses the road and walks towards me. Yet, he walks straight past me. I grab into his arm to stop him and he instantly looks over at me.

"Please don't. Please. If she finds out I told anyone she will go mental. You can't fix this and trying will only make it worse." I beg. He stares into my eyes and I stare back into his. I can tell he is trying to figure out what to do.

By this point Harry had parked the car and come over to us. Although, Harry doesn't directly know I think it's pretty obvious now as to who it is.

"I need to speak to Luke." Calum calmly says and he walks into their hotel. Both Harry and I follow behind him. The look on Harry's face has changed and now he looks like he is going to kill someone. Dark Harry. I never thought that there actually was this side of him. It's strange that two of the kindest boys can change so much when they find out something like this.

"Harry?" I whisper. He looks over to me. His eyes are dark, his jaw is clenched, his hands are making fists. This isn't him. He would never hit a girl, would he?

"Please don't do anything stupid. She will kill me if she finds out I told anyone and I can't risk her even getting a hint of suspicion." Confusion takes over Harry's face and he releases his clenched jaw and fists.

"She?" He repeats. I nod my head, slowly.

"Wait, who done this?"

"Sophie." I tell him starting to become confused too. Who did he think done it? He pauses but I continue to follow Calum because I'm scared that if I lose him he will say something that will be regretted.

"Harry!" Calum calls and Harry snaps back into reality. He chases after us and wraps his arm around my shoulder to hug me as we walk. How does the media make such a kind hearted boy seem so villainous? When will people see him and the rest of the boys for who they truly are?

We get to the door and Calum knocks, loudly. The noise from the other side stops for a second before footsteps come towards us. The door opens but I keep my head down.

"Niall?" Harry says. Immediately, I look up at him and standing before me is Niall. What the fuck? So he leaves me when I needed him to go to Sophie and Luke? What a dick. He leads us into the room. Luke and Sophie are all cuddled up together under the sheets and she's obviously wearing barely any clothes. She shoots me a fake smile but I just ignore it and look up at Calum. I hate being near her.

"I'm glad you guys came actually." Niall tells us and I look at him confused.

"Lola I'm sorry I left you I just couldn't stand seeing you in that much pain. So I stood outside to get some fresh air and I tried my hardest to think who would beat the shit out of you because, as far as I know, you don't not like many people. So I came here to Luke's and Sophie and I began to talk. I told her how you told me that she was the only one you told as out the bruises." What they fuck is he going on about? I never mentioned anything like that to him. "She said she was giving you advice on how to deal with bullies but I didn't have the heart to tell her that actually you never mentioned the fact that she knew. In fact, Sophie, Lola told nobody about what happened meaning the only way you knew was because you done it." The room goes silent. He worked it out. How? I mean he dropped out of school to join a band and I doubt that even people who stayed in school would have thought that thoroughly about it.

"So before you say anything I suggest you get your hands off of her best friend, put some clothes on, apologies to her and re-evaluate your pathetic little life because, you see, no one gets to hurt my princess, do you understand?" He asks. Luke shifts away from her. He's in shock just as much as she is.

"Do you understand?!" Niall screams making me jump. She jumps out of the bed immediately before nodding her head. Grabbing her dress, which is still laying on the floor, she covers her chest, even though she's wearing Luke's top still, and rushes towards the door. She barges into me when she walks past but no one else notices.

"Sophie wait!" Luke calls after her as she goes to open the door. Hope fills her eyes as she looks back at him. Where is he going with this?

"I want my top back. But, wash it first because I don't know where you've been." He tells her sounding disgusted and my jaw drops. She runs out of the door and as soon as it slams shut I burst put laughing.

"Bye bitch." Calum says in a sassy girl's voice. I walk over to Niall and wrap my arms around his waist. For fucks sake I love him so much.

"Next time you tell us, yeah?" He giggles as he kisses the top of my head. I nod my head and squeeze him even tighter. I should've known I could tell them. Yet, a small part of my is still worried about what's going to happen when I go back to school.
