Chapter~14
While Ed and the girls began extracting blood from themselves using their powers, everyone else stayed in the living room to give them some space.
Jesy had Liam place the unconscious Harry on his bed for the time being as they worked on the blood transfusion. After that, the werewolf retreats to sit next to his ghost boyfriend on the couch, wrapping an arm around him.
Niall leaned into the brunette's warmth, sighing helplessly as they waited and hoped for the witch boy to be okay.
"Why would Louis do that?" Katy says out of the blue.
Shawn turns to look at her, then to the two vampires cuddled up to one another on the recliner, "Kendall, Cara... Do you know?"
Both girls glanced at each other before Cara decides to answer, "we don't really know... But losing control is quite common for us vampires if we don't get enough blood in our systems. Our inner monsters take over, you see, whether we like it or not."
"Really? How come you and Kendall don't lose control? For the few days we've known the two of you, not once have we seen you girls feed." Liam claims.
Kendall nods, "that's true. And to answer that, there isn't much of a need for us to lose control," she shrugs, glancing at Cara with a smile, "It's quite cliché actually."
The others stare at them confused, urging them to continue.
"Define cliché." Niall arches a brow.
"Okay so, when a vampire finds their other half- or soulmate, as many like to call them- the need to drink blood lessens and becomes a second necessity to them because their partner will be the most important thing they'll ever need. They keep each other alive, in a way. You get what I'm saying?" The black haired vampire glances at everyone listening.
Shawn, Katy, and Niall nod slowly, while Liam furrows his brows, deep in thought.
"What're you thinking about, Li?"
"Just... The prophecy..."
"Yeah? What about it?"
The werewolf exhales slowly, meeting eyes with his lover, "didn't the book say something about death and love? What if..."
Niall shakes his head, "no... Harry is not going to die! Our enemies might be the ones it's directed to! And love? Either ours... or both. With Harry and Louis."
"I hope..."
Not wanting to stress themselves about what will happen to their friend, the supernatural beings agree to focus on the mission at hand.
"If we're gonna talk about this, we need Louis to be here." Shawn tells them.
"What if he tries to attack-?" Katy starts but Cara cuts her off.
"He should be stable after almost draining Harry of his blood.."
They fall into a silence until Niall goes to stand up and get Louis.
Unbeknownst to the fact that the vampire lad has already been awake and was speeding out of the cabin. Too upset with himself and horrified at what he had done to the boy he secretly admired and cared about.
Yes, he admits it. He likes Harry. He likes him a lot. But after the incident, he will never forgive himself and knows that everyone hates him now. He's better off gone or even dead!
The prophecy must be wrong.
He can't be a hero.
Not when the only thing he can do is cause people pain...

As Niall made his way to Louis' room, he passes by Harry's and goes to check up on him.
He knocks before opening the door, smiling at the warlock and witches who looked up from what they were doing and returned the gesture.
"How is he?"
"He's still too weak, but recovering nonetheless." Leigh Anne answers him, checking the multiple IV's containing blood in them which are now being connected into the unconscious witch boy.
Perrie flashes the ghost boy a reassuring smile, walking over to Jade to help her clean up the blood coated equipment that were used for the transfusion.
Niall stares at Harry's face for a second, taking in his appearance. He's still a bit grayish pale, but slowly gaining back his usual complexion thanks to the blood, "I'll come around again in a few. I'm gonna go see if Louis is awake now."
The blonde ghost turns and walks over to Louis' door, gasping when he sees an empty bed with no sight of the vampire.
"Shit... LIAM!!!"
In no time, the werewolf lad is by his lover's side, concern written on his face, "what? Are you okay? Wh-"
Niall points to the empty room and that's when they realized they were all in so much trouble.
"Oh no..."
The prophecy has begun, yet Harry's in no shape to battle and Louis is gone once again.
What are they gonna do...?
Sorry for short chappy but this is sort of like a filler. Next chapters will be the beginning of chaos so buckle up.
