Around midnight there is a loud knock on my door. I groan and haul myself out of bed, still in my boxers. I don't bother looking in the peep hole and I pull it open. Juliet was standing there shaking and crying. There was a large gash on her head and she looked absolutely petrified.

"Whoa, what's going on love?" I ask.

"I hate him." Juliet forces out. "He's trying to catch me. They both are."

"Who?" I ask.

"My dad and Niall." Juliet answers quietly. I immediately pull her inside and lock the door behind us.

"Did your dad do this?" I fret.

"Niall did." She shakes her head sadly.

"What?" My eyes widen to the size of basket balls.

"My dad was just sending me these text messages that were freaking me out." Juliet explains. "We had a fight and then he kind of just...lashed out."

"I'm so sorry." I wrap my arms around her tightly.

"He's there every time I close my eyes." She sobs into my bare chest. I frown. Her blood was now all over me but I didn't care. One of my best mates beat her.

"I'll never let him touch you again." I whisper. "We can go back to your house and I can get him out of there or we can get the twins and come back here."

"Melanie and I decided something before I came here Louis..." Juliet trails off.

=============================================================================

*Juliet's POV* 

"You guys don't have to do this. We're not leaving for another month." Louis says.

"There's too much stress that comes with staying here and it's not safe for her." Melanie reffers to me while I continue fiddling my thumbs in the passenger seat of the car.

"What about us?" Harry pleads.

"You can visit if you want but I need to get them out of here before her dad kills all three of them." Melanie replies.

"You don't have to do this for me." I call out. "I can go by myself."

"That isn't happening." Melanie states the obvious. I sigh. It was worth a try.

"Juliet!" Niall suddenly jumps into the other side of the car. I scream and basically throw myself out onto the driveway.

"Stay away from me!" I shout.

"Can we talk about this?!" Niall squawks while walking in front of me. Tears burn at my eyes as I sit there unable to move. My heart beats faster when he crouches down to me.

"Oh, h*ll no!" Louis yells and picks me up, pulling me into his side. I clutch his arm tightly. "Leave her alone Niall!"

"Like you are leaving her alone?!" Niall spits.

"She came to me!" Louis defends. "You're the one who beat her!" Liam, Zayn, and Harry's jaws drop. I hide my face in his forearm. "I can't trust you with her anymore!"

"I don't trust you with her either! You got her knocked up and turned her into a slut! You broke her twice! And now you're acting like there wasn't any problems! You cheated on her to add to the list of things you've done wrong!" Niall shrieks.

"Don't act all innocent! I saw you Niall!" Zayn speaks up.

"You what?" Niall hisses.

"We both saw you with Caroline Flack!" Liam bellows.

"Caroline?" Harry's eyes widen.

"I was only with the dumb b*tch twice." Niall rolls his eyes.

"She's not a b*tch!" I dig my face back into Louis when Harry lifts up his fist. When I open my eyes again Niall is swiping blood from his lip, Melanie is cooped up in Louis' other side, Harry has a giant bruise on his cheek, Zayn is holding back an enraged Harry, and Liam is keeping Niall from pummeling him any further.

"I think we should take this inside." Liam says.

"We gotta go." I croak through my sobs.

"This isn't over! Watch your back Tomlinson!" Niall screeches.

"I could say the same to you Horan!" Louis snaps as the blonde walks away.

"God, you're an idiot." Melanie kisses the bruise Niall left on Harry's cheek. I look up at Louis with fear clear in my eyes.

"I'm so sorry Juliet." Louis shakes his head.

"Me too." I cry, wrapping my arm around his neck. He grabs my torso and I press myself into him. Our bodies still fit like a puzzle piece which only makes me cry harder. "Have a good time on the tour."

"Don't act like this is the last time we're going to see each other. Please." Louis begs.

"So now you know how it feels." I whisper. "To be left behind while the love of your life goes to do something they need to do." I stare into his beautiful blue eyes. I give him a half smile. "This is how I felt when you left." His frown grows larger if at all possible. I run my thumb along his cheekbone, trying to make my touch soft. "I'm gonna miss you."

"I'll miss you too." Louis forces out.

Seeing him like this absolutely broke my heart. He was on the verge of tears and he was shaking. I can see the scared look in his eye. They didn't have the light in them anymore.

He suddenly grabs my neck, pressing his lips to mine. I expected myself to pull away but I didn't. I was comfortable in his arms. I felt safe and I felt alive. He brought out the worst in me but that's ok. I didn't want to leave him but I had to.

I'm torn between two options. I can either pull away and get in the car with the twins and Melanie, or I can continue the snog and give him access. I think you know what I'm gonna do.

I wrap my arm around his torso, clutching the back of his shirt in my fist. I kiss back furiously, hoping all of the horrible memories would leave my mind with each second I keep myself with him.

The boys start whistling but I don't care. I didn't care about anything at that moment. All I knew is that if I wanted to keep everything I loved, including Louis, I had to say this and then leave immediately. It would determind my whole future. I pull away and leave about a centimeter between our lips.

"I love you Louis." I whisper whole-heartedly. I slip from his reach, climbing into the van.

"Juliet?" Louis asks. I turn my head to him. "I love you too." I smile at him.

"I know." I allow my tears to flow once again. He tries to smile at me but instead the tears slip his eyes.

I didn't see that adult I knew just moments ago anymore. Instead I saw the small, fragile, and naive eighteen year old boy I fell in love with three years ago.

Holy s*it! I cried while writing that! It's so cute and emotional and I LOVE Louet SO freaking much!

Oh God, I probably look like an idiot right now. I'm on the couch clutching my laptop to my chest and crying. I don't care that much though. It's normal...*sigh*

TOO MANY FEELS!

Information for the next book will be posted soon. I love you guys. Hope you know that. :)

Have a good day! Or night! Or whatever time it is for you!
