In The Dark

Chapter 20

~ Alyssa's P.O.V. ~

Jocelyn and I have been at this club for a few hours now. She's just wasted. I keep trying to get her to leave but she just won't have it.

"Jocelyn please. You're so wasted, I need to get you home. I should've never brought you here," I say, pulling her arm towards the door.

"Leave me alone!" she yells at me, causing some people to stare.

"Niall is at home waiting for you," I said, trying to bribe this drunken mess of a human.

"Ooh," she smirks. "No. I wanna stay here a little longer."

"You said that an hour ago. Please," I say desperately.

She still resists, so this time I grab both her arms and drag her outside. She tries to hit me, but I grab her hands and get her into my car.

I drive her home and walk her inside.

"Noo!" she yells when we walk inside. The boys all walk around the corner, wondering why there was yelling.

Jocelyn drops to her knees, looking scared. "Are you okay?" I say and gasp.

"Why'd you bring me back here," she lightly sobbed. "I don't want my mom to hurt me."

Niall walks up to Jocelyn and takes her into his arms. He looks angry.

"What happened out there?!" he scolds me. I look down to my feet.

"I'm sorry, I should've paid better attention to her," I mumble.

"Did anyone hurt her?" he asks concerned.

"No."

"Good. You should leave," he says, his face red with anger.

He kisses Jocelyn's forehead and takes her into his room.

"I'm sorry. I'm leaving right now," I mumble and head towards the door.

"Wait!" Liam grabs my wrist. "Stay."

"No, Niall obviously doesn't want me here. I should just go," I say and open the door.

"Wait!" he yells a little louder this time. "He'll cool down. It'll be fine by morning. So please, stay."

I sigh and take a deep breath, "Okay. I'll stay."

Liam hugs me and kisses my neck while whispering, "I love you."

I look back up at him and smile, "I love you too."

He kisses my lips slowly.

"Oh get a room," Louis says, smirking.

I blush and look down at my shoes. Liam picks me up bridal style, and carries me to his bedroom after we say goodnight to the the other boys.

He lays me on his bed and takes off his shirt before lying down next to me. I cuddle up to him and breathe in his scent. He smells amazing.

"Did you really mean what you said out there?" I ask quietly. "Do you really love me?"

"I love you so much baby," he mumbles into my hair, and it sends chills down my spine. I shiver.

"I love you more," I mumble back, falling into a deep sleep.
