Ballerina Bruises
Chapter 4- Secrets Out
Harrys POV:
I know what Louis was going to do, and I'm so thankful I got there in time to stop him. Bella is a beautiful, fun girl who I need to win over. Its 4:32 in the morning, and I can't sleep, because I'm nervous of what Louis might do to her in the middle of the night. She looks so peaceful sleeping between Chloe and Niall. I have to wonder though, is there something between Niall and Bella? The way they look at each other sometimes seems like it could be more than friendship but I'm not sure. I'm rattling off a million thoughts right now because one, I'm overtired and two, I can feel the hangover started to kick in. Fuck. I'm gonna pass out. I also wonder why Bella is always tugging on her sleeves and I notice her frowning a lot... I have to clean up to get her to like me that's what I'll do......ZzZzZzZzZzZzZzZz

Bellas POV:
It's seven in the morning, and I'm exhausted. I have a pounding head ache and everyone else is still fast asleep. How did I manage to let myself sleep at the house of a guy who almost raped me? Granted, we were both drunk and acting differently, but that was very extreme especially since I only met him a few hours before hand! I rolled over and tapped Niall a few times before he woke up and smiled at me.
"Good morning, love." I hated that expression. Good morning. I haven't had one of those in a while. "How'd you sleep?" He asked. I just looked at him and shook my head. Since everyone was sleeping and it was just Niall awake, I stood up and changed into this. Niall stood there and examined me closely. "You haven't eaten in a few days have you, love." I just glared at him and put my finger to my mouth and shushed him. Niall knows I don't eat when I'm upset, which is often but he also knows I can handle it because I'm a serious ballerina and I watch my weight everyday.
"I'm really ok Niall don't make this a big deal!" I assured him. He looked at me, looked away and said,
"I'm going to get your stuff from the other room. We're leaving in 10 minutes get ready." I sighed and packed my bag as Niall walked out of the room. As I went to grab my phone from the table, I saw somebody was awake. It was Harry.
"Um hey. How come you're awake so early?" I asked as I grabbed my phone and knelt down to keep packing, like this was so casual or something. Harry scratched his head and was looking at me differently than he had when we first met. His eyes were softer, and his face wasn't as serious.
"I couldn't sleep. How come you haven't eaten in a few days?" He blurted out. My face turned 50 shades of red. "I'm so sorry, I didn't mean to be so nosey, I just overheard your conversation and I was concer..." His voice trailed off as Niall walked into the room.
"I uhh I think we're gonna get going. Tell Chloe and Perrie I'll see them in school and tell Zayn and Liam it was nice to meet them." Harry nodded. I looked at him and gave him a sad smile. It was kind of time to hear someone else caring about me rather than Niall.
We went to the car Niall drove right to the center of town where there was a bagel shop called Randys. We both got out of the car and Niall ordered food for me, himself and Drew and Jamie. When we got back in the car, I had to ask. "So how did it go with Chloe last night?!" I asked. Niall blushed.
"She's a really great girl, pretty too. She's a lot like you, Bell." I couldn't help but smile. I hope things really go well for them two.

When we got back to my house there was one car in the driveway--Drew's. My parents still haven't returned. When I opened the front door it was 10 o'clock and they were both sound asleep in the guest bedroom. Awwww. Niall and I jumped on the bed at the same time and woke them both up. I really missed having Drew around. We ate bagels in the giant king size bed for about two hours, not once mentioning that none of us have heard from mom or dad. I was always worried something might have happened to dad with his business, but he always comes back. always. Mom just liked to go away whenever they had a fight, gamble her money and stay at luxury hotels. Whatever.
Niall needed to go home and see his mom so he left and it was just me and Drew, Jamie was in the shower. Drew was staring at the wall and I heard a little sob come from him. I climbed over to him and pat his back. "Bell... I need to tell you something. You have to promise you won't tell Jamie, or Niall or anyone."
"What is it Drew?" What was going on?
"Bell... I'm so sorry...."
"Drew stop you're scaring me! What happened?!?" I shouted shaking his arms aggressively.
"Dad's "company" turned against him... They... They are going after his family."
"Drew what does that mean?! You have to tell me what's happening!" I begged. What is going on?!
"Dad was embezzling money from the drugs that were sold and they found out.... He's on the run... and mom....."
"Drew?! What happened to mom?!"
"Moms dead. And one of us could be next."
