FOREVER [Niall Horan] ✔

Chapter 67.

"I can't promise to fix all your problems, but I can promise that you won't ever have to face them alone."

Niall's POV

"I fucking asked you to tell me about it!" I yell and he sighs again. I pull my hair by the roots, very angry and frustrated. "I fucking trusted you to tell me! Do you even fucking realise what you did by hiding it from me, Louis! This is not a joke, this is fucking crucial!"

Louis turned up in my office unannounced. I was confused for a moment before I realise what he might want to talk about. It appears that Tyler was in London all the time and he knew about it but thought that it would be a good idea to hide it from me. He didn't tell me about it when I asked him a few days ago. He was acting like that fucking prick wasn't here this whole time when the fact is that he was here right from the start.

I cannot even begin to imagine all those times when she was alone and something could have happened to her just because Louis decided not to tell me.

"I know but he's fucking dangerous, Niall. He's not alone!" He yells back. "Look, I didn't think that he would actually do anything in the start but then I dug a little deeper and realised how vicious he can be."

"I don't fucking care! You lied! You knew Tyler was fucking here all the damned time but you didn't even bother to tell me when I specifically asked you to! You do not understand what he's capable of doing, Louis! You do not fucking know what he did to my Ana!"

"I know what he did to Ana. And I fucking know what he's cable to do," Louis says, a little less angry. "That's why I didn't tell you sooner. He's done this before too. I just wanted-"

"I don't care! You put Ana in danger!" I bawl. "He's here and I'm going to fucking find him and slit his throat," I breathe and push him away when he reaches to touch me.

"And what, end up in Jail?" He scoffs and I glare at him. "Look, there's a reason I didn't tell you, alright, just trust me."

"Yeah," I snort. "Look where it got me."

"Listen to me, I know you love Ana and you don't want her to get hurt and neither do I. I know how much she means to you and trust me, I'm not trying to sabotage it. I was trying to solve it on my own, without either of you getting hurt but I can't. I tried everything I could and I hit a dead end. I don't know what to do next. I thought about filing a complaint too but they couldn't do it without Ana's permission and acceptance. I'm sorry, I didn't tell you, but I had my reasons."

I take a long, deep breath as I take in everything he said before offering him a nod. Even though I'm still a little mad, I do trust him and everything he just said. "Can you tell me where he is right now?" I ask instead and he nods.

"I can but I won't," He says and I raise my eyebrows, gritting my teeth. "Just give me a few days, Niall-"

"I fucking can't! Do you still not see it? She's not fucking safe every time she steps out of the house," I shout before groaning. "Fuck! I have to call her," I hurriedly say, as it clicks me that Ana must be at the Gallery, and take my phone from the table before dialling her number.

She picks up the phone on the fourth ring and I sigh upon hearing her voice. "Hello, baby," She softly murmurs into the phone and my frown completely disappears, a small smile replacing it.

"Ana," I sigh into the phone.

"Are you okay? Why do you sound so tensed?" She worriedly asks and I mentally sigh again, massaging for forehead and thinking if I should tell her about it or not.

"Yeah, I'm fine. Just work stress," I lie, thinking that it is better that way.

"Niall," She presses as if she knows I'm not telling the truth. "What is it?"
