Elizabeth’s POV

I hissed when Aaron placed a cloth on my knees trying to clean my wounds up. I placed my hand over his as a reflex.

“Sorry” He whispered looking up at me and I released his hand to continue on doing what he was doing. I was sitting on the edge of my bed waiting for Niall to get here.

“When I called Niall he said that he was going to get everybody else before coming here.” Aaron said getting up from his knees closing the first aid kit box.

“Okay.” I nodded. “Thank you by the way.” Aaron smiled at me placing the first aid kit box on the bedside table as I slowly stood up.

“I’m going to use the restroom. I’ll be right back.” I said walking across the bedroom opening the black door that led into the bathroom.

I walked in front of the mirror between the double sinks starring into my reflection. My hair was a mess and I agitatedly brushed it through with my fingers taming it down. I looked rather small in Aaron’s sweatshirt, than again he is rather taller than me. My face looked much paler that usual, a red scratch across my right cheek. I sighed and shook my head. It could be much worse it thought to myself as I walked back over to the door.

“Elizabeth, thank God you’re okay!” Eleanor exclaimed quickly walking over wrapping her arms around me giving me a tight hug.

“Yea, I’m okay.” I smiled pulling away from her. “Aaron saved me.” I said glancing at Aaron and he gave everybody a small wave.

“Anyways, I have to get going I have stuff I need to take care of. “ Aaron said walking over to the doorway of my bedroom. “I hope you feel better Elizabeth”

I smiled. “Thank you.” I said before he stepped out of the room.

“Elizabeth I am so sorry!” Niall said wrapping his arms around me. “If I came over when you asked me to then probably the demon attack wouldn’t have happened. The only reason why I was late was because I had to sort some things out but I swear the next time you call or text I’ll answer right away.”

“Niall, it’s okay” I giggled pulling away ruffling up his hair. He chuckled quickly stepping away fixing his hair with his fingers.

“Anyways, I am hungry so I’m going to get something to eat” I said quickly walking out of the bedroom.

As soon as I was done making myself a sandwich in the kitchen, I realized that I didn’t ask if anyone else wanted food. I placed my plate back on the counter and walked out of the kitchen making my way over to the bedroom. I stopped when I heard them talking through the half opened door.

“Are you sure that he is back?” Liam  asked.

“Yea, I saw him today while I was in town. That’s why I was late when Elizabeth texted me earlier. Its official Harry is back in town, for some reason but I don’t know what for.” Niall replied.

What, Harry is back? It took a few moments to let Niall’s words sink in before I smiled feeling a rush of joy wash me.

Niall’s POV

“Okay guys, now that Elizabeth is out of the room. I have to quickly tell you guys something.” I said sitting on the edge of Elizabeth’s bed. Everyone turned to look at me with a confused expression.

“Harry is back” I stated after a few seconds, their eyes widened and jaws dropped to the floor.

“Are sure he is back?” Liam asked with his arms crossed over his chest tilting his head to the side with a frown.

“Yea, I saw him today while I was in town. That’s why I was late when Elizabeth texted me earlier. Its official Harry is back in town, for some reason but I don’t know what for.”

“So what does this mean?” Zayn asked looking around the room.

“Nothing, it means nothing.” I said shaking my head. “ I don’t know why Harry is back but I’m guessing the reason behind it isn’t good.”

“Wait, so if Harry is back then doesn’t than mean that he came back to see Elizabeth?” Eleanor asked.

“I honestly don’t know!” I whispered so Elizabeth wouldn’t hear. “I just saw him, I didn’t speak with him but when I saw him…he doesn’t look like the same Harry.”

“Of course he isn’t the same Harry!” Louis whispered in exasperation throwing his arms up in the air.

“Louis, you’re only saying that because you gave up on him. You told him that you weren’t going to help him anymore” Eleanor said rolling his eyes.

“Yes, Eleanor.” Louis nodded. “I also meant it. I tried helping him because every single time that I have turned him back around I saw hope in him. I saw hope that he could be good. But when I was at his house picking up Elizabeth things all I saw was someone who was monumentally drunk and loved the idea of killing over two thousand people.”

I nodded listening to Louis, at the moment I agree but there is still a part of me that still believes.

“I’m going to the kitchen with Elizabeth” Eleanor said stepping out of the room.

“So what do we do now?” Zayn asked.

“I think it’s best that Elizabeth doesn’t know.” Louis said looking at the floor with his arms crossed.

Sophia gasped. “Why?”

“We don’t know the real reason why Harry is here. For all we know he could be just passing through and for Elizabeth’s sake its better for her not to know.” Louis explained looking over at Sophia.

“Yea babe” Liam said wrapping an arm around her. “It’s better that Elizabeth lets him go and start over. Also, even if Harry did want to keep in touch I doubt he would because I assume he would want to forget about her too and-“

“ELIZABETH IS GONE!” Eleanor yelled walking through the door.

“What?” I asked quickly getting up to my feet.

“Her plate is still on the counter and her keys are gone which could only mean one thing”

“She was eavesdropping” Liam stated.

“Which means she went to go look for Harry” Zayn added and I shook my head biting n my lower lip.

“Okay, I am going to go look for her” I said walking across the room.

“No Niall!” Eleanor yelled next to me. “Let Louis and I go look for her. If she is at Harry’s then we will see her there and if something goes wrong we will tell you.  

“No, I’m going to go with you too. If I hadn’t opened my mouth she wouldn’t be going there in the first place!” I said frustrated zipping up my sweater.

“Okay, we won’t the three of you go and the rest of us will stay here just in case she gets back” Sophia suggested. I nodded and quickly walked out the door not wasting any more time.
