The Band-napper's Best Friend

Chapter 10 - The news breaks...

***5 days later (boys held hostage for one week total)***

Gigi's POV:
Zayn called over a week ago, saying he was coming back to Pennsylvania, from LA, on Tuesday. That was three days ago. I tried calling him but his phone went straight to voicemail. I tried to call his management and a few of his buddies down in LA to see if they know why he's not answering. All I received form them was, "Gi, we don't know either." or "Zayn is gone."

I have cried more tears in these three days then I ever have in my entire life. I hope Zayn isn't dead. He can't leave Khai and I behind. HE CAN'T! He would be breaking his own promise if he did.

Mum has been taking care of Khai since I could barely even function to even do anything but sit in my room with my phone in my hand and cry my eyes out. I need to know if Zayn is ok. I'm worried. Mum called Zayn's mum to see if he went back to Bradford for a while, and just forgot to tell me but his mum said he hasn't come back and hasn't reached out to her quite a while.

I decided to call again today and see if he would answer. He didn't and his phone went straight to voicemail. "Hey babe...its Gi....wondering where you're at...I'm worried babe. Please call me back ASAP. I miss you and I love you Zayn. Please come home soon." I said before hanging up and crying again.

Bella has decided to take a flight to LA to see if she can find any clues to his whereabouts. I hope she finds something because I don't know how much longer I can go on without knowing where Zayn is.

OH ZAYN! BABY COME BACK!

Maya's POV:
Liam was supposed to come home last Saturday and we were going to see Cheryl and his son, Bear for a few days. He hasn't come home yet. He called me last Thursday and said he was coming back to London on Saturday. After that call, I haven't heard from him. At all. I have felt more lonely than ever. I just want my Liam back. I called Cheryl and said Liam isn't back yet and hasn't called and she is taking it very hard too. I also called Liam's parents back in Wolverhampton and alerted them of Liam's absence from communication. His mum lost it when I told her about Liam and she had to give the phone to Liam's dad since she was too emotional to talk. I called both his sisters and we cried together on the phone. No one could believe that Liam just 'disappeared.' It was odd for Liam.

My best friend, Tiffany, comes over a lot to help me through my day. Without Liam, I have basically became a walking sad shell. With no Liam, I have no life in me. Tiffany makes me eat and makes me stay up with my hygiene since I can't remember to do anything with the constant rain cloud over my head. It's just really hard.

I just want my Liam back!

Greg's POV:
Niall hasn't called mum in a VERY long time and mum is very concerned. She keeps calling me, even when I'm at work, and asks me repeatedly. "Has Niall called?" The answer is always no. He hasn't called ONCE! I tried to text him and call him on his celebrity mobile and family mobile, and neither have gone through. It's absurd for Niall to do this without calling me or mum. Either something happened in Los Angeles or he has just decided to forget about us, which is very un-Niall like. I have called the police in Los Angeles and have alerted them of Niall going 'off the grid' and how we don't know of his whereabouts. They said they would begin to look but as of as I called, they put him on the 'missing persons' list in California and the entirety of America.

I hope he returns into existence and calls mum soon. I don't know how much longer she can take without hearing from my younger brother.

Eleanor's POV:
Well, Louis has disappeared again. He won't answer my calls or my texts and it's starting to upset me. He usually doesn't take over a week to respond. I know Louis went down to LA to record music but usually he calls twice a week but in the past week, he hasn't which is very unusual. I have called a few of his mates down in LA and they said he hasn't been in studio and hasn't left his house. I called Briana, and she said she hasn't heard from him either. She said she went to his house, and rang the bell twice but no response. Very weird for Louis. It's like he just......vanished.

I called the police in LA to report Louis as a missing person and asked them to find him ASAP. They agreed, and since Louis is a world-known pop star, they put him in the 'urgent' category.

Anne's POV:
Gemma and I have called Harry multiple times. He hasn't responded. Very unusual for Harry. I hope he is doing well. I called his manager and they said that he hasn't been answering calls or hasn't shown up anywhere in public. No paparazzi shots or anything. His manager has even looked in Harry's house and it seems like nobody has been there for a while. It's just like he uprooted himself from the world and went off radar. Where did Harry go? He wouldn't do that unless he told me first. I am feeling mixed emotions. I'm a little angry but I'm also very worried for him. 

Gemma has been researching into things like his bank accounts and some other high profile things, along with Harry's management squad, in hopes of being able to find anything suspicious to help lead us to Harry and/or his whereabouts.

***The next day***

Third Person POV:
~8am~
"Niall Horan from the former boyband One Direction has been reported missing on account from his brother, Greg Horan. Please, if you know anything about Niall Horan and/or about where he his please tell him to come home or call 911 immediately." a news reporter said as the news from the LAPD stating that Niall hasn't been active in over a week.

~9am~
"BREAKING NEWS UPDATE: Louis Tomlinson, former member of One Direction, has been reported missing for over a week. LAPD has no new updates as of now. Check back later for more updates!"

~1pm~
"Harry Styles's management has filed a missing persons' report for the fellow pop star as he has not 'called or texted' as said from his manager."

~5pm~
"The Malik's and Hadid's post about the sudden disappearance of Zayn Malik. They ask, 'Please help us find him!' on their social media's."

"Safaa Malik, Zayn's younger sister, has posted on Instragram telling her followers to 'Bring my brother home! We miss him dearly!'"

~9pm~
"Good evening everyone." the lady of Nightly News starts. "Tonight we are here to inform you that all the members of the former boyband, One Direction, have disappeared. Niall Horan, Louis Tomlinson, Harry Styles and Zayn Malik have all been reported as missing as Liam Payne has just been labeled as 'unreachable to family and friends.' There is no evidence of where they went or why they decided to all go off the radar so unexpectedly. We ask that if you know anyone who knows about ANY of the boys whereabouts, please call 911 immediately. The families and loved ones reach out to you to help bring the boys home! Thank you for your time and concern!." the news reporter concludes before moving on to the next story.

***the next day***
Social media sites around the world have gone into an uproar. On twitter, the hashtag #bringtheboyshome was trending worldwide. Directioners banded together to host vigils for the boys in hopes the boys return alive soon. They miss the boys. The boy's parents and siblings have even attended some of the vigils near them in the UK and Ireland and have even banded together again to create a hope circle in hopes to bring all their son's home, all safe and sound and....alive.

Did you cry? I did. Sorry for all the emotional chapters in this book. I guess I'm just a very depressing and sad writer. Idk why, i just am. I apologize to all the tears shed here in this chapter.

Do you like the book so far? Is it good or nah, I'm curious. I can try to make more happy chapters if you would like that.

So today was nothing special just another day without 1D as a band again but there is only 23 days left til Christmas and 22 days left til Louis' 29th bday! exciteddddd

So, I am planning on building this 'house' to show you what the rooms are like and stuff and since I do have a house building and interior design program on my pc, I am going to do it. I'll probably post the layouts in a chapter before the first chapter and call it 'house layout' so you know what it is kinda like to be in the boys shoes. Does that interest anybody??

Anyways, besides my long essay here, i hope you had a good day and enjoyed it, even if i made you cry from this chapter (i'm sorry....oops :| )

Love ya and keep reading and commenting and voting and sharing on this book. It is amazing to see that my weird writing is actually entertaining to some people and i love to see it.

Fun Fact about me: I used to bleach blonde highlights into my hair back in middle school (2015-2017 i think).

At the end of the day, ilysm <3
