Lost at Sea || Niall Horan (In Editing)

Chapter 11

Erica’s POV

The soft light from the rising sun filtered through the curtains, creating an eerie glow in the room. I opened my eyes and noticed that there were more people in here then there were when I fell asleep. Liam was still unconscious on my lap; he didn’t seem to have moved.

Harry and Christina were fast asleep, their legs tangled together and her head was resting on his chest. I wish that was me, me and Niall. I missed him so much.

The thought that he wasn’t here gave me slight hope, that he would be protected. Dad would look after him. Along with the other VIP’s. I wish I could tell the boys that i was ok.

I knew Louis would be freaking out, Zayn would be anxious and Niall would be a mess, but he would be hiding it.

I couldn’t imagine how Dad would be taking it. He only just got me back now I’m gone again. But it isn’t like we can control it; the freak of a man kidnapped me and held me hostage.

I could make out a few other faces, some I recognised, some I didn’t. Most other people were still asleep, or if they were awake, they were talking to people around them. Seeing that the people around me were asleep, i decided to sing to myself.

I set out on a narrow way

Many years ago

Hoping i would find true love

Along the broken road

Sandy, who was sitting beside me, started singing along.

But I got lost a time or two

Wiped my brow kept pushing through

I couldn’t see how every sign

Pointed straight to you

Every long lost dream

Led to where you are

Others who broke my heart

They were like northern stars

Pointing me on my way

Into your loving arms

This much I know is true

That God bless the broken road that led me straight to you

Yes it did

I smiled at her and wrapped my arms around her shoulders. She started sobbing into my shoulder and wrapped her arms around my waist. I gently rubbed circles on her back,

“I want my mum.” She mumbled into my shirt, my heart sunk.

“I want my mum too. But I will never see her again.” Sandy looked up at me, her eyes clouded with confusion and fear.

“You mean we are never going to see our families again?” Her voice cracked, I shook my head.

“No I don’t mean that. My mum died a few weeks ago, so I won’t see her again.” My own voice cracked as I thought about it.

“Oh, I’m sorry.” I smiled, “It’s ok. Let’s just think about tha...” I didn’t finish my sentence.

Liam groaned and rolled into my stomach.

“Liam? Li can you hear me?” I asked, suddenly excited and relieved that he was ok.

“Danielle?” He slowly opened his eyes. I laughed,

“No it’s me, Erica.” He smiled and opened his eyes fully.

“Ezzy! You’re ok.” He sat up and wrapped me up into a big hug. I pulled back and ruffled his hair,
