"I'm going to go to bed," I sigh as I get up, stopping when I see Liam and Niall walk in the room.
"We heard them yelling from our room next door," Liam says, and another scream is heard through the door, "Do you know what they're even fighting about?" I look to Grace subtly and quickly and we both shake our heads to Liam and he sighs.
"Wanna sit?" Grace offers Liam and Niall a seat, moving over. Liam goes to sit down but Niall stops him.
"I have a better place." Niall says, smirking mischievously. He starts walking and we all follow him, up the stairs and into his room.
Wow, I've never been in here before. His bed is unmade, just like mine. There are clothes neatly tucked into one suitcase which he shuts with his foot once he enters.
"Close the door, please," Niall says and Liam closes it slowly.
Niall walks towards the boarded up Attic, that is placed on the ceiling, next to the his closet.
"Niall, what are you doing?" I ask and Niall doesn't look back when he answers.
"You'll see." He grabs a chair and stands on it, careful not to fall, and pushes the small, fragile attic door open. He looks back to us with a small smile. He pulls out a small ladder, leading up to the dust filled attic.
"Come on," he gestures and we follow him without question, through the square hole and into darkness.
*TIARNS POV*
"Wait, wait, wait, shhh!" Jacinta whispers, covering her mouth to stop laughing, so she can listen to whatever she's listening to. I have to cover my mouth too.
Jacinta and I have been talking like always and laughing and basically doing nothing, but it's better doing nothing with her than doing nothing alone.
"Do you hear that?" she says and I listen closely. It sounds like footsteps.. coming from the ceiling.
"It might just be rats?" I say and Jacinta shakes her head.
"No, no, that's people," Once she says this she jumps off the bed and I follow her quick movements, walking out of the room and looking to the ceiling.
Then I notice something.
Nialls door is closed. It's opposite of my room and he never closes it, not even to sleep. I look to Jacinta and hold a finger to my lips, signalling for her to be quiet. She nods and we tip toe to Nialls room, slowly opening the door. No one is here. There's only a chair and an unmade bed.
"Look," Jacinta whispers, pointing to the closed attic door. She walks towards is and just before she pulls the string we hear someone.
"What are you looking for?" I hear a deep voice ask and I turn around to see Harry. His eyes are a little bit puffy, they do that when he's been crying. He has a mean scowl on his face and he is crossing his arms.
"Nothing." Jacinta says, leaning against the wall and almost falling. I silently chuckle at her as Harry rolls his eyes.
"Okay fine," I start when Harry just stands there, "We're going in the attic."
"Why?" he asks confused and his eyes never leave mine.
"I really don't know." Jacinta says, pulling down the string and the ladder falls down slowly, "Care to join us?" Harry smirks and nods, we climb up the ladder one by one and I can't help but shake the feeling that Harry was looking at my butt.
"I can't see anything," I whisper to darkness.
"Me neither," she whispers back as I try to feel around for a light switch. I walk against the wall, my hand dragging across where a light switch should be but stop as I see light. I walk closer and see an open window, showing the outside world.
"Guys," I call them over from wherever they is and Jacinta and Harry turn around and start walking until they sees the light and are standing next to me. The sky is painted pink and orange with a little bit of purple and blue. The sun hangs low in the sky and a small breeze flows past. I take a small step outside the window and hear the roof creak. The next thing I hear is talking and laughing. I step out fully and look at the roof. I see my friends. All of them. Sitting in a row admiring the view. They spot us and Niall gestures us over to sit down. I shrug and slowly climb the roof. It was hard but it must've been 10 times harder for Jacinta; she failed gym.
I nearly slip but Harry puts his hands on my waist from behind and I turn my head and see him from the corner of my eye. I sigh and keep walking, his hands falling off of my waist. I sit down next to Niall and Jacinta sits down next to me.
*JACINTAS POV*
I sit down next to Tiarn, not being able to take my eyes of Louis. He keeps staring. In a second he's getting up and siting down next to me.
"Hey." he whispers and I look at his hand on top of mine.
"Hi there," I have to stop myself from grinning like an idiot so I remove my hand and look to the skies.
"Are you okay, Jacinta?" Louis whispers and I look to him. His eyes are so blue and he looks perfect.
"I'll explain later." I whisper, sighing and I turn to involve myself in the conversation.
"Niall, how did you find this place?" Grace asks and Niall shrugs.
"I came here after Nadia passed away and I came here after Bec passed and I wanted to show it to you guys," he says and we sit here quietly, remembering who we've lost and who we have left.
