Chapter Song: She is Love by Parachute, Right Now by: One Direction

*Alyssa's P.O.V.

"What's keeping you?" Grant repeats again. Do I have to say it? I just don't want to go back. It's not going to end up pretty, it never does. I've been gone so long, everything has changed. I'm not the same girl I was six months ago. The second I go back everyone's going to notice.

"It's it because of Kenny?" I can't even hear his name without thinking of what he did to me. I cry every time, and since Grant and I agreed to not talk about him I can't help the tears from streaming down my face staining my cheeks.

"Shhh. 'Lyssa, you're safe with me. I stop all communication with him, he won't get to you."

"How can you be sure? He's a a freaking-"

"I know, I know. You know where you would be safer?" I know what he's going to say. And he's right. I do need to go back.

"Grant! Can't you see I can't! Going back means living up to promises I don't wanna keep! I can't get married. That's too much pressure on Louis!" I fight in full on tears. The dam has cracked, there's no stopping me from crying now.

"Where's the Alyssa that was excited to go back, and counted down the days until her freedom. You've had freedom for two months and now you're scared to go back. You told your parents you were going back two weeks ago. It's passed due Alyssa, it's time to face your fear. I'll go back with you if you want, but you can't stay here anymore. I know the old Alyssa is still in there.

"It's hurting Louis more you being here then you think. I'm sure he'd much rather have closure than worry when you're coming back. If I was him I'd be pulling my hair out, I'd eventually loose hope. I'm actually surprised he hasn't yet. Just promise me you won't give up on him, not yet. From what I've heard of him he really needs you in his life and giving up on him will ruin him. Deep down you still love him. You just forgot what real love is like. And the best way to remember is to be around people that love you. Family, friends and your lover. Don't even try to deny any of this, we both know I'm right."

I sigh in defeat I know that I've lost this, but I'm not going to be the one to admit that he's right though.

"Whatever. I'm done with this conversation," I say standing up showing him to the door. I'm not talking about this now, or ever.

"No, you just know that I won and you hate that. You hate when you loose. This happens every time I mention going back. Why do you refuse to go back? What do you have to loose going back!? I'm not leaving until you give me answers!"

"Well you might as well get comfortable, because the only way you'll get the answers you want will be over my dead body." I say with a smug little grin. I think I'm pretty clever, but Grant however, thought the worse.

"Don't even joke about that!" Suddenly I hear my phones ringtone go off, I've never been so happy to have a phone call in my life.

"Oh look I have a call," I say picking up my phone and see that my dad is calling. "And this is important, so I'm going to take this."

"Hello?"

*Louis' P.O.V.

"Why the hell are you here at 4:00 in the morning." Robert asks.

"I'm sorry sir, but I wouldn't be here if it wasn't important." I say, getting a different reaction from him.

"Alyssa?" I nod, and he steps to the side. "Come on in, take your shoes off." I do as I'm instructed and follow Alyssa's dad to his office.

"As you're aware your daughter hasn't come home yet and she told everyone she'd be back as soon as she got the okay. Well it's over two months and she's still not home. Sir, she promised me we could get married and when I was on the phone with her over a hour ago she didn't sound like the girl I fell in love with. I think she lost her way, or something happened and she's ashamed." I say rambling on about my worries about my girl.

"Son, breath. Calm down, take a deep breathe," I do as he says to calm my nerves. "Now explain to me why you think this."

"Okay, so our conversation earlier was very short and awkward. We used to talk about nothing for hours and we couldn't even talk for five minutes. She lied to me about her not knowing when she was coming home, and she always would say she loved me at the end of our conversations, and when I said it she just awkwardly hung up, saying her uncle was coming when he wasn't. I'm not saying you don't know your daughter, because trust me I don't. I'm just saying that after you guys, I'm the one who knows her best and this doesn't sound like her." He nods trying to process everything I just said, and probably trying to think of what to say.

"Yeah, I see where you're coming from. When we talk to her it's the same way. Very basic answers kind of like she's hiding something." There a knock on his door and a small voice.

"Robert, homey. Who are you talking to?" She says opening the door then looking at me. "Oh, is everything okay?" I shake my head. I'm not even sure what's okay and what's not. I'm tired of waiting, I need my girl back.

"It's time for Alyssa to come home," I say trying to hide the fact I'm on the verge of crying.

"I'd agree, but we agreed that she could come home whenever she wanted."

"Well un-agree or something, I need my girl back and you're going to have to help."

"What do you mean?" Alyssa's mother questions.

"I mean you guys have to convince her to come home, something. Anything. I'm not a good enough reason for her to come back, and I'm afraid that I might be loosing her."

A/N: I feel like this chapter is really crappy and short :/ I will make up for it I promise.
