Tuesday: January 20, 2015

Harry’s POV:

My leg was shaking up and down as I sat on the couch watching some program about bees with Py, Sagi, and Mavis. We were all huddled together and I was pretty sure that all three of them could sense the tension in my body. It had been two weeks since I had my first Liam related nightmare and I seemed to be getting them almost every other day. I knew that Zayn could tell that I was a bit of a mess but I didn’t want to tell him about the frightening things happening in my slumber. I knew that it would just make him worry more and I really didn’t want that. He had been so relaxed lately and telling him about some ridiculous nightmares would just put his guard up again.

I sighed and patted Py on the head, “I don’t know what to do Py.” The beautiful German Shepherd gave me a gentle lick on the cheek and I kissed him on the head. “I know. You’ll keep me safe.”

My stomach growled so I got up from my seat and walked into the kitchen. Zayn had told me that he made me dinner before he left to go hunting for the night and I was pleasantly surprised to see a delicious plate of pasta waiting for me in the fridge. I was so lucky to have a fiancé that could cook so well. I stuck the plate into the microwave and tapped my foot against the floor as I watched the seconds count down on the small screen. I smiled as the microwave beeped and I took my food out before quickly shoveling it all into my mouth in just five minutes. I usually watched how fast I ate things but man was I starving.

I burped before getting up and going to the sink to wash the plate that was covered in sauce. I scrubbed the plate trying to get one pesky little spot that refused to come off.

“Damn spot. Come on.” I began scrubbing harder and smiled as I held the plate in front of me and saw that I had finally achieved my goal.

I grabbed a towel to dry my dish but when I looked up out of the window the plate came crashing to the floor and a loud scream came out of my mouth.

Liam was staring at me with a menacing look on his face right outside of our house. This was it. He warned me that he was going to find me. He said that he would somehow get me and torcher me. I just couldn’t go without a fight though. I turned to run away but screamed louder as I ran into something behind me.

I punched and kicked and cried as the arms wrapped around my body trying to get me to cease my actions.

“Harry! Harry what’s going on? Why are you crying?” I looked up and saw that it wasn’t Liam trying to hold me down and kill me but instead it was Louis. I latched onto the friendly man and dug my face into his chest. He picked me up and carried me to the couch as he waited for me to settle down. “It’s ok Harry. Tell me what’s wrong now.”

“I-I saw hi-him.”

He looked down at me in confusion, “Who Harry?”

“L-Liam. He w-was standing ou-outside t-the w-window.”, I managed to stutter out.

“Maybe you just need some rest Harry. You can sleep right here and I won’t move. Ok? You’ll be safe. Niall and Zayn will be back in a little while. Just try to get some rest now.”

I didn’t really want to go to sleep but I knew that Louis was right. That could very well have been some sort of hallucination. If Liam really was around here then odds are he would’ve killed me already. There was no reason for him to play games with me.

Louis grabbed the blanket that was draped over the back of the couch and covered me up. “I’ll be right here. Just close your eyes and go to sleep.”

And that is exactly what I did.

Zayn’s POV:

When Niall and I arrived home I could feel that something was wrong as I walked through the door. Something just felt off. As we walked into the living room I saw Louis sitting on the couch with Harry’s head lying on his lap. Louis motioned for me to go to the bedroom as Niall stayed in the room with Harry.

“What’s going on?”

Louis sighed, “We need to leave Zayn.”

“Leave? Why?” I could tell by the look on Louis’ face that I wasn’t going to like the answer to that question.

“Harry saw Liam.”

I shook my head, “Excuse me?”

“Harry saw Liam outside while he was in the kitchen. He freaked out and he was crying and frantic and I just think we should get out of here.”

I knew that Harry was probably scared as all hell but the logical part of me was saying that this was completely ridiculous. “Did you see him?”

Louis shook his head, “No. I just ran into the kitchen when I heard Harry screaming. Why does that matter? Clearly something has been going on with Harry. And whether this was a hallucination or not we both know how powerful Liam is. He could be making some contact with Harry somehow and the longer we stay here the closer he gets to us.”

I sighed and ran my fingers through my hair, “Ok. Yea. I guess you’re right.”

He patted me on the back, “Look I know that you want to keep Harry safe and all but eventually you’re going to have to turn him. It’ll make things so much easier for all of us.”

“He isn’t ready for something like that. He wouldn’t be able to handle it right now. I mean he’s this messed up over those dreams he’s been having. Turning him might actually drive him to insanity.”

“Has he actually told you that he’s been having nightmares?”

I shook my head, “No. But I can tell. He whimpers and thrashes when he’s sleeping. He never did that before.” The two of us just stood there in silence until I spoke up again, “We’ll leave in a couple days. Don’t speak of it to Harry. I don’t want him to think I know about this Liam situation. He’ll just be more freaked out if he thinks I find it necessary to move because of all this.”

Louis nodded, “Ok. Just say the word and Niall and I will be ready to go.”
