✔️STRONG [L.S]

[10]

{LOUIS POV}

*May 21st, 2014*

Cold. That was the only thing I could feel at the moment, floating through a void of complete darkness. Alone. I screamed and screamed for help until my throat was raw and dry, tear's running down my face. That's when I realised something. There was no one to help me. No one for mile's and mile's around. I was left alone in complete utter darkness, with nothing but my torturous thought's to haunt me.

'Nobody love's you'

'No one care's.'

'Why else is there no one to help you?'

'Why would Harry beat you?' The last one made me snap, and I let out a blood curdling scream. I started to run, my hand's covering my ear as I tried to escape. But how can you escape your own mind?

I gasped out for air, my eye's snapping open. I sat up quickly, grabbing my head as the world begin to spin.

"Woah! Easy there killer." I heard someone say. I groaned, and blinked a couple of time's. I found myself sitting up in a cot. A woman kneeling next to me. A paramedic. She gave me a soft smile, reaching a hand up toward's my head. I flinched away. She didn't seemed phrased as her finger's brushed the sweaty fringe from my forehead.

"You alright?" She asked. I took a shaky breath before slowly nodding.

"Yea, I think so." I answered, my voice cracking on the first word.

"You just had a small fainting spell. Could have been caused by stress, emotional stress, anxiety, hunger, dehydration, etc. So, I'll get you something to eat and you should be good to go. Just try to take easy as though. Your body is still weak. Don't push yourself as hard either, a person can only take so much stress. M.R International popstar." She winked, before standing up and leaving the room. I pressed the palm of hand to my damp forehead, pushing my hair back. My hand's were still shaking slightly, and I took a deep breath's to calm myself.

'Breath Louis... Just breath..'

I jumped as the door opened again, and the woman re-entered. She placed a carton of orange juice and a couple of cookie's into my hand.

"Eat." She ordered with a smile. I smiled back gracefully, sighing happily as the cool drink ran down my throat.

"Thank's..." I mumbled through a mouthful of crumb's. I quickly swallowed it, taking sip of juice before turning back to her.

"So...What's your name?" I asked, trying to take my mind off my horrible dream, [If that's what you wanted to call it.] and Harry. Harry...I could feel my heart beat quicken at the thought of him, my body tenses up.

'No! calm down Louis! He is not here, not in this room! You're safe now!'

'Now...' The word echoed tauntingly in my mind.

"Diana." I whipped my head back toward's the woman.

"What?"

"My name is Diana." My body slowly relaxed, and my lip's twitched up into a genuine smile.

"Diana.." I let the name roll off of my
tongue.

"Beautiful name." I concluded, taking a bite from my cookie.

"That's the name of one of our song's too." I said.

"Really?" She asked, leaning against the wall. I nodded.
