"El you have to believe me! Louis was here all day when you saw that! Harry has a selfie with him to prove it," I beg El to listen.

She is packing her stuff up in a bag getting ready to leave and take me with her.

"Then explain how I saw him kissing that girl," she continues to pack.

"Management hired a guy that looks like Louis to kiss some girl in front of you so drama would be created for the press," I explain," look at these pictures and you will see."

I take out Louis' phone and show her the pictures the press took of the kiss and pictures the press took of her and Louis kissing.

She takes the phone and studies the pictures. Her eyes grow wide the second she sees the difference.

"Where's Louis?" she asks.

"He's with Harry at the mall," I say.

She grabs my hand and drags me downstairs, snagging her purse on the way. She threw open the front door and dragged me to the car.

Once we are inside, she starts the car and pulls out of the parking lot.

"Where are we going El?" I asked.

"To the mall, I have to talk to Louis right away," she said quickly.

"Well El, Harry just texted me and said they will be home in 5," I say.

She rolls her eyes and turns around, pulling back into her parking space.

I laugh silently and get out of the car.

Just as we are about to go inside, Louis and Harry pull into the parking lot. Harry rushes me into the house as El and Louis start to talk. Harry walks into the kitchen and I walk up to the balcony where I first started talking to Zayn.

I look out at the water and watch the waves make sparkles with the sun's reflection. It is such a beautiful sight.

"Help me! Someone help, please!" I heard a girl scream.

I look around at the beach below me and see a guy beating someone.

"Hey! Stop that!" I yell down.

The guy stops and looks at me. I try to memorize his face quickly before rushing back inside the house. I bang on Zayn's door as I run past. He opens it and looks at me

"Grab a bat and follow me," I say quickly.

I rush down the stairs. As I pass Harry I tell him to call the police. I continue to outside with Zayn right behind me. I only stop when I see the guy still hitting the girl. Zayn's eyes grow big as he rushes over to the guy and pulls him off the girl. I rush to the girl to help her.

She is no older than I am. She has long dark red hair, obviously dyed. She had multiple cuts and new forming bruises on her face. She was barely wake.

"Is there anyone I can call for you?" I asked her, hoping I could help.

She just barely shook her head no before going unconscious.

"Zayn!" I screamed at the top of my lungs.

I doubt he could hear me over the approaching sirens, but it was all I could say.

"She's going to be okay Andy, she is going to be okay," Zayn said, finally getting to my side.

I knew she was going to be okay, I just didn't know if I should believe it yet.
