Mirror - 1D Fanfic

Chapter 11

Louis carried me downstairs triumphantly as I tried not to think too much about how bad I could've just hurt Zayn. Maybe he shouldn't have kidnapped me last night.

Maybe I shouldn't have kissed him back.

I pushed the thoughts to the back if my mind, enjoying being with Louis while it lasted.

When we got into the living room, Lauren was laying across Niall's lap, his hands running through her hair.

" I ship it. " I whispered in Louis ear, making him laugh.

Everyone turned toward us with sighs and looks of relief.

" Thank god he didn't hurt you. " I heard Harry say, Liam nodding in agreement.

Lauren sprung up from the couch as Louis stood me on my feet. She brought me into a sisterly hug.

" I didn't know what he would do to you, I was so scared Chandler. " she said.

I returned the hug, rubbing her back to calm her down. As I did so, a thought occurred to me.

" Lauren we have to leave. " I said, only so she could hear me.

She immediately backed away, shaking her head. I sighed.

" The girls will be looking for us. We can come back, we have just been gone for such a long time. It'll look suspicious. "

She glanced back at Niall before sighing and walking slowly back up the stairs. I gave Lou a peck on the cheek before following Lauren. We walked into my room through the mirror quickly and I let out a sigh.

I heard shouting coming from downstairs and gave Lauren a look before rushing down to see what was going on.

" We can't just jump to conclusions! All of their stuff is still here, and they would've told us if they where leaving! " Kaitlyn shouted at Paige.

Her back was turned to us, so she didn't see when we walked in. But Paige did. She crossed her arms and frowned.

" Well well well, look who it is. " she growled, causing Kaitlyn to whip around.

She bolted towards me and almost knocked me over as she wrapped her arms around me in an embrace. I laughed lightly as I could feel a few tears of hers landing on my shoulder.

" Oh my god Chandler " was all she could muster.

She calmed down a little holding me in front of her. She looked like an angry yet relieved mother. She glanced at where her tear stains were on my shirt.

"Where did you get this shirt from?"

I glanced down realizing I was wearing what must have been one of Zayn's shirts.

" If you guys are done with your sap-fest, you have some major explaining to do. " she said, her hands on her hips.

I sighed and motioned for everyone to come sit down. Kaitlyn sat beside me on the couch whilst Lauren plopped down in the chair across from us. Paige remained standing angrily.

I took a deep breath. This was it. I had to tell them. I had to give up my little secret. I glanced up at Lauren before taking another breath and beginning.

" First of all, you are gonna think I'm crazy when I tell you. But you gotta let me finish...no interrupting me. " I said, glaring and Paige.

She rolled her eyes and motioned for me to go on.

" Well...you know how I have that mirror, right? "

They nodded.

" It's...a portal...to another mansion. Actually the same mansion, just a different time, 1991. It's occupied by 5 boys; Louis, Liam, Niall, Harry and.. "

I paused before saying his name. I feared just saying it would cause him more pain.

".. and Zayn. " I breathed.

Kailtyn wore a confused expression. The last time she had been to the mansion with me, she only got to meet Harry and Niall. I looked over to Paige who was staring back at me blankly. I decided to go on.

" Anyways, long story short, we have been over at the other mansion for the past few days or nights... " I said, trying to remember how long we had been gone.

I heard Paige scoff as she began pacing.

" A few days or nights? A FEW DAYS OR NIGHTS?!? " she screamed.

I cringed away, my back pressed against Kaitlyn. She wrapped her arm around me, pulling me into a weird kind of protective side-hug.

" YOU HAVE BEEN GONE FOR 3 WEEKS!! 3 WEEKS CHANDLER!! " she shouted, throwing her arms in the air angrily.

My mouth opened to speak, but she cut me off as she continued to scream at the top of her lungs.

" WE HAVE BEEN WORRIED SICK OVER YOU TWO!! WE CALLED THE POLICE AND REPORTED YOU MISSING BECAUSE WE THOUGHT YOU MIGHT'VE BEEN KIDNAPPED OR SOMETHING!! YOU KNOW HOW MUCH STRESS YOU CAUSED ME?! "

I shrunk further back against Kaitlyn. Finally she stood up from behind me, causing me to fall back against the couch cushions.

" DO'NT YOU DARE YELL AT HER FOR CAUSING YOU STRESS, PAIGE. THEY MAY HAVE BEEN GONE FOR ALMOST A MONTH, BUT I'M SURE IN THEIR PERSPECTIVES IT WAS ONLY A FEW DAYS!! SURE, WE WERE WORRIED SICK OUT OF OUR MINDS BUT THEY ARE BACK NOW AND THAT'S ALL THAT REALLY MATTERS. THEY ARE SAFE AND YELLING AT THEM IS'NT GOING TO MAKE THE PAST CHANGE. GET OVER IT! "

At this, Paige seemed as red as a tomato with anger. She clenched her small fists at her sides and stormed upstairs, slamming her door behind her.

I sat up, putting my head in my hands. I hadn't meant to cause them stress, I just wanted to keep the other mansion a secret for as long as I could.

Kaitlyn plopped down beside me. The three of us sat in silence before a smirk grew across Kaitlyn's face.

" What are you smirking about, Kay? " I asked her.

She looked between me and Lauren before saying it, just above a whisper.

" 1991. "
