Chapter:- 5

Louis P.O.V

"Where you are going?" I asked.

All of them looked so ready with guns in hands."Shawn hasn't delivered yet and you know what we do then," A smirk followed Liam's words.

"Let it be. Don't kill him," I said and with a thud I plopped on the couch.

"What ? Louis what exactly you want?" Harry yelled.

"I want peace and let go of it," I yelled back while massaging my forehand.

"It's not the answer. Lou," Liam said in a calm voice.

"We all need to run this gang and you have been giving this gang no shit,these past few weeks," Harry yelled coming straight in front of me.

"What do you want me to do then?" I yelled.

Anger pierced the atmosphere of living room. Heavy breaths could be heard all around Louis. Dark eyes slowly turned to red, jaws clenched and fists too."I want you to do something. You are taking every thing easy and soft," he shouted."And we aren't that."his voice  dropped down in disappointment.

Louis, what are you doing?
Voice rang inside me.

I know you want to give up  but you can't do that, you've  got; to show that you can continue this gang same as your grandfather did.

"We want the real Louis," Harry calmly said.

"This is really me, in front of you"

The person I present earlier before you. Does not exist" I said to myself because I had no courage to hail the truth.

"You are right," I said and gave him  an assured smile.

BUT INSIDE I WAS

Angry with myself. I desperately wanted to yell that I didn't want to be there but my ego and a promise both came in my true path, forcing me to lock my inner self with unbreakable locks and throw the key away.

****

Niall entered followed by Light. She was helping him to repair a car in the garage. I made my way straight towards her. If I could, I would have killed her right then.

"It's been fucking, four days here and still your brother hasn't paid us back," I spat bitterness on her.

"Louis, we still haven't given him the ransom letter or any other information," Niall declared.

"I don't fucking care, he should be here by now."

"I am sorry," she whispered.

"Sorry, huh! for what?" I yelled.

That girl knew she hadn't done anything wrong but every time she apologized with a vulnerable tone.

Why did she act like that?

I hate nothing more than people not knowing,how to stand up for themselves.

"You and I both know that you haven't done a single thing wrong."

I yelled at my top and smacked her. I don't know why I was getting really angry by her unemotional eyes and her mouth that never spoke anything except apologies.

"Stop fucking being a poor thing and looking so damn vulnerable all the time," I shouted at top of his lungs.

Her eyes looked like she wanted speak the truth but I found it hard to read. She didn't even looked hurt .
Her expressions rested emotionless.
I had never faced a captive like her, who doesn't fight back or try to run away.Everyone under that roof knew she did nothing but that was the only reason getting me infuriated.

Light's P.O.V

"Can't you defend yourself?" he asked and then dragged me by my hair and we landed in a basement".

I knew what was coming,I stood there,eyes persisted on the ground and already accepted what was going to come.I flinched when he punched my face. I didn't know how that could made him more angry.

"You will just flinch on my punches, huh!"

"I have suffered too much , now its normal ."  The words ran in head but never dared to touch my lips.

He got more angry with my silence.
"Don't you have something to say?"

I shook my head.

"Ugh! I hate you. I hate people who can't stand up for themselves"

He kept yelling  that he hates my behaviour and his foot hit my stomach several times. A certain familiar metal taste filled in my mouth.I spitted the blood out followed by coughs but his torture continued. A spike of pain shot through me as been stamped my legs. I could only surrender as they failed to carried my weight. My knees still wobbled,but they weren't strong enough to save me from my fail.

He pulled me by my hair, tried to make me stand but legs already lost it strength. So,  He threw me in the corner like a child throwing a toy he's bored of.

I laid there the way he left me in. My brain moved dizzy and unaware of things the basement held. I didn't have any pain inside but physically it hurt a bit. Mom's face kept coming in front of me, I needed her I just wanted to hug her and apologize but damage was done and guilt was so heavy that it made me stand up. It was Noon and the place was not too dark. So,I walked a little then fell on the left side.

I dashed in contact with thousand pieces of broken of wood .It felt hard on my bones. But there was nothing hard as compare to the guilt I had drowned in.

Guilt washed me again and again so, every time I saw the image of that burning car. Funeral that I couldn't attend. I made my body fell on those glasses. Until I couldn't feel anything and  everything went numb. Laid there and through a ventilator window, I saw the sun pulling cover and darkness reviling.

*******

A light lit the place and I saw him coming down while carrying a different aura this time.

"Light," his voice sounded afraid. "Light," he escaped my name unbelievingly when he saw me.

He picked me up gently laid me on the floor.

"I am so sorry," he sounded worried and each word he said was so sincere.

"But I didn't throw you on these," he said pointing to broken wood behind me. 

He slipped into sudden silence, I could see his lips quivering and eyes traced my body to scan the pain. My eyes could not afford to be open for more. Pain, guilt and cries had crumbled me weak.

"Don't sleep, I am going to take you up but please don't make any sound"

His one hand tremblingly slided in my legs and other on my back. He took me to his room with pure natural genteliness.

He sat me down on the bed, my skin didn't oozed blood but there were several unseen damages which I thought he didn't notice. Giving me an ice pack with a hope that some bruises could be healed. Then he brought some food for me but I didn't have any power to eat .

The plate was untouched for minutes and he soon  noticed then fed me. His eyes were not strong and dark from  which anger legged out few hours ago but that time they were on its original  greyish blue state, soft and poured warmth.

He said never to tell anyone that he nursed me and I agreed. Stayed in his room under the covers until morning.  Whole night was passed in serene silence. It's fragile state only broken by his apologized.

He took me back to the basement but this time he was pretty nice and humble. He was in there till the birds chirping start then went out saying he don't want anyone to see this side of him, he wanted to be cold but warmth filled in him.

Why did he show himself like that?
