When The Night Is Coming Down On You

Nicole's POV

I had lost feeling in my body what seemed like hours ago.  I wasn't able to feel the cold or even the pain that should've been hitting my body by now.  The sun had set ages ago and my hope was beginning to drain.  Where ever I was it obviously wasn't a very popular place. 

My mind kept running over what had happened today.  I stil have no idea why I am being targeted by this man. What had I done to catch his attention? It couldn't be a coincidence that my parents were killed in a fire, my foster dad was shot in cold blood and now I had been abducted.  My mind couldn't think of any connections that would make some sense out of everything.  If my family hadn't moved none of this would've happened.  I would still have my parents and my friends and I wouldn't be tied up to a tree. But I also wouldn't have met the boys and I wouldn't have had a chance to try so many new things.  

My thoughts screeched to a halt as I heard an engine nearby.  Screaming was useless with the tape still over my mouth but I had to get their attention somehow. My hands reached out trying to grab anything that could help me.  My fingers scraped across a branch and I struggled to pick it up. Eventually getting a hold of it I started banging it around as much as I could.  I was hopeful that the noise would alert someone to my presence.  

My attempts were futile.  The vehicle passed by me without stopping. Tears that I had been holding back cascaded across my cheeks.  The whole situation become worse as I realized that I could be stuck here for a long time.  Even if I were to free myself I wouldn't have a clue where I was or how to get back to the boys.  What would become of me if I were to be stuck here for longer.  I had no way to fend for myself or proctect myself like this. All I could do was pray for someone to come across me and stop. 

Liam's POV

We had another call from the police explaining that the situation had changed.  They had caught the van that was supposedly carrying Nicole.  The two men inside the van were being held for questioning as they continued their search for the missing girl.  They were hoping to find her before dawn.  Dawn.  That's at least another six hours.  Six hours that Nicole could be sitting in the cold risking her life every second.  I was going stir crazy sitting in the hotel room for all this time.  I needed to get back out into the streets and look for her. I promised her that I would take care of her when I adopted her.  I hadn't done very well at keeping that promise.  I was getting out of this hotel room one way or another. 

Harry still hadn't come out of his room in all this time.  It wasn't helping that we were all spread so thin.  As much as I wished things could move smoothly they never would be able to. Being in the public eye constantly is both a joy and a burden. The only thing the police hadn't resorted to yet was us using our twitter accounts to get the message out to the public.  We had been warned that buy doing that it could cause Nicole further danger as it might interfere with their efforts to find her.  A deal had been struck to use our power of social media if she still hadn't been found by morning. 

As of right now I was going out to look for her whether the boys came or not.  

Harry's POV 

8 Hours since NIcole was taken and the police had only just managed to catch the men suspected or kidnapping her.  Nicole herself was still missing as they were questioned.  That poor girl had had so many things go wrong and we were supposed to be able to save her from that.  We hadn't been able to do that, a fact that was eating me alive. I should have done more to try and keep her close to me when we were out.  If I had done that she would be safe in the hotel with us.  We shouldn't have allowed her to leave by herself, not when we already had a bad feeling about it.
