I passed out a little while after getting home yesterday, waking up with a pounding headache.
I ran a hand through my hair with a painful grunt as I climbed off of the couch. Niall walked into the room with a plate of at least ten pancakes towering on it, making my eyebrows raise.
"She's alive!" He chuckled as he slumped down on the couch where I had been laying and began digging into his breakfast.
"Easy there, don't choke." I laughed at him before grunting again from the pain in my head.
He slowly began to chew with wide eyes as he held his plate out in front of him. "Want some?"
I smiled at him, shaking my head no. "I'm gonna go get changed."
"You do that. Then we can go out for some fresh air." I heard Liam yell from the kitchen.
I frowned as I peered inside the room, watching as Liam and Louis made more pancakes. I just slowly backed away, not even bothering.
I made my way upstairs, pausing on the steps when my head throbbed too bad. I finally made it up to my room and closed the door behind me.
I quickly got out of my mom's god awful dress and pulled on a flannel, ripped jeans, and black combat boots.
I brushed my teeth at least three times to get rid of the lingering taste of alcohol and brushed the knots out of my hair.
I made my way back downstairs, being met with Niall who was holding an empty plate. My eyes widened as I walked over to him.
"You ate all of those pancakes?!"
"Of course. Didn't think I'd let them go to waste, did you?" He asked with a quick wink as he ran off into the kitchen.
"You little leprechaun." I mumbled as I ran after him.
I watched as Liam ripped the plate out of his hands, setting it in the dishwasher.
"You can't eat anymore pancakes, Niall. You're going to get sick."
Niall pouted at Liam with big eyes. "But daddy Payne!"
"I told you not to call me that!" He said, rolling his eyes as he shut the dishwasher.
"Come on, you two. We're going to take Rose out. If you twats haven't noticed, she's right there." Louis spoke up as he walked over by me.
"Hi Rose!" Niall exclaimed with a big grin as he practically skipped over to Louis and I.
"Niall, who gave to sugar?" I asked, narrowing my eyes at him.
He laughed quietly as he rocked back and forth on his heels. "I put extra sugar in the pancakes."
"Niall!" Louis and Liam both groaned, making me laugh.
"Come on! Let's go!" Niall said excitedly as he took me by the hand, dragging me out the front door.
We walked through the graveyard, jumped over the railroad tracks, and sped past the warehouse, coming to an open field of dead crops.
"Pretty." Niall smiled as a butterfly landed on his finger.
"Isn't it too cold for butterflies?" I asked with raised eyebrows as one landed on his nose, making him giggle.
"Those aren't butterflies. They're black moths. They live in cold, dark places." Liam explained as he caught up to us.
I looked back at Niall, watching as more moths landed on him. His cheeks grew pink as his laughter increased.
I smiled at him before a moth landed on my finger. I carefully lifted it up so I could see it better. It was an elegant shade of black. It's wings slowly began to change to bright white, making my eyes widen.
The moth took off, flying up into the dark morning sky. I looked over my shoulder at Liam who was staring back at me.
"How did it change color like that?" I asked softly as he walked up next to me, taking a moth off of Niall's shoulder.
"Black moth. Creature of darkness. When met with a creature of light, it may change." He spoke as he carefully placed the moth into my hand, watching with furrowed eyebrows as it changed color.
"But Niall is a guardian angel. Why aren't the ones on him turning white?"
"Because we're not from earth. They aren't familiar with us so they can't tell if we're dark or light." He said as he took the moth from my hand, placing it back on Niall.
It stayed the same shade of white before it flew off, making Niall pout. I nodded slowly as I watched some other moths fly away from a cool breeze that blew over the field.
"Bugs!" I heard Louis yell, making me turn around to see him run behind Liam as a moth flew towards him.
I laughed loudly, shaking my head at the ground. "It's just a moth, Louis."
The rest of the moths flew away in the blink of an eye, making me frown. I glanced over at Liam who looked confused.
"Black moths fly away from evil and heat." He whispered, glancing back over at me with a frown.
"Rosie!"
I turned around to find Harry running up to us. With Michelle.
"What the heck? Harry, why are you here?"
"Why am I here? To yell at you, that's why!" He exclaimed, making my eyes widen. "You let Dylan, who you don't even really know, get you wasted?!"
"Excuse me, but I can do whatever I want." I replied with a frown, raising my voice at him.
"You could've gotten hurt." He spoke lowly as his eyes darkened.
"Yeah and why would you care? You'd probably just sleep with Michelle to take the 'pain' away." I said, watching as his eyes widened. "What is she doing here anyways?"
"I couldn't just leave her at the house-"
"You brought her to my house?!" I whisper-yelled at him, glancing over to the pretty girl who was giggling with Niall.
"It was my house first, if you've forgotten." He replied with a frown, making my eyes roll.
"Har-" I began, but stopped talking when I realized what Michelle was wearing around her neck.
The locket that Harry's mom gave him. The one he gave me.
He turned around, following my gaze. He turned back to me, his features softening as he noticed the tears gathering up in my eyes.
"Rosie..." He began in a whisper, making me shake my head at the grass.
"No, Harry. It's fine. I'm glad she makes you happy." I managed to whisper through my dry throat after swallowing hard.
I walked past him before he could say anything else, walking over to Liam with tears rolling down my face. I wrapped my arms around his torso, burying my face in his chest as he began rubbing my back soothingly.
I quickly stood up straight, wiping the tears away from under my eyes. I sniffed softly before thanking Liam. I glanced over at Niall who was chasing Louis with a moth.
I looked over at Harry and Michelle, watching as she pressed a kiss to his cheek before giggling.
I sighed, looking down at my feet. If he's happy, shouldn't I be happy?
I was snapped out of my thoughts when the ground beneath my feet began shaking. I looked up at the boys whose eyes widened. Michelle screamed, jumping up and down.
Harry ran over to me, grabbing my waist and pulling my body into his.
"What are you doing?!" I screamed up at him.
"Making sure you don't get hurt!" He yelled back over the deafening sound of the earth cracking.
"It's an earthquake!" Michelle shrieked before screaming some more.
"It's not an earthquake!" Louis yelled out, looking over at the boys and at me. "It's Zayn!"
I looked back at him questioningly before screaming as the earth began to split beneath us. We all quickly rushed over to the same side, looking down as the earth cracked.
Harry still held me as I looked down at the ground with wide eyes. I glanced over at Michelle who was standing right where the ground was breaking.
"Move!" I screamed as I pulled away from Harry, running over to Michelle and pushing her into his arms.
He looked up at me with scared eyes as the earth beneath my feet crumbled and I fell down into the earth's crust.
I fell for what seemed like forever. My eyes snapped shut as tears flew up from my eyes. My hands were grabbing at the air, desperate to grab onto something.
I finally hit water, sinking down into it. It stung my air burnt body as I struggled to swim to whatever shore I could find.
When I managed to lay down in the shallow amount of water, I stared up at the dark rock 'ceiling' above me. I glanced around with short breaths escaping my throat as I realized I was in a cave.
Water trickled from the top of the cave and into the pond I fell in. I gasped as I felt a sharp pain in my left arm. I looked down, seeing blood fulling up the teal water. There was a bit of white bone poking out of my elbow, making me gag and look away. I hit the water pretty hard.
I heard someone screaming before I heard their body collide with the water in the pond. I peered over at the familiar blonde hair and blue eyes.
I opened my mouth but no sound came out. Niall swam over to me, picking my arm up in his hands, causing me to wince.
He quickly apologized as he began healing my broken elbow. When he was done, I was able to scoop some water up in my hands and drink it, soothing my painfully dry throat.
"Why'd you come down here?" I whispered after he helped me sit up.
"Thought it'd be scary down here all alone." He replied with a smile. "And 'cause I thought you died."
"Thank you, I guess. But how're we gonna get out of here?"
Niall glanced around with a small shrug. "I'm sure we'll think of something."
"I hope so. But what was Louis talking about? That this was because of Zayn?" I asked with furrowed eyebrows.
He took a deep breath before looking over at me. "He's opened the gates of hell."
