LIES
This story is based off McFly's music video "Lies", hope you enjoy it! I do not own Just My Luck, or McFly. I only own my characters Elena and Holly.
Chpt. 9 (Elena's P.O.V.)
The van came to a sudden stop.
"What do you mean where's Danny?" Tom asked in a worried tone and he looked straight at me.
"He's not here!" I yelled. He turned to Harry.
"I thought he was behind you?" Harry shrugged.
"My mistake." He responded.
"We have to go back and get him!" I yelled and Harry's attention snapped to me.
"No!" Tom and Dougie immediately gave him confused looks.
"What do you mean no?" Tom asked.
"I…uh…mean, it's too dangerous! We'll get caught again!" Dougie glared at him.
"Are you even listening to yourself?" Harry just stared back at him; in fact he looked like he was hiding something. "Danny is our friend, hell he's like our brother! We can't leave him there with that witch!" Harry still didn't say anything.
"Dougie's right, I'm going back." Tom said and then he put the van in reverse.
"No." Holly put her hand on his shoulder. "Irena won't hurt him; she knows he has powers so she'll keep him as a prisoner. We can get him back later."
"Holly!? What the hell are you saying?" She looked up to me. Her eyes seemed so lost and sad. Something was obviously wrong, and she wasn't going to tell me.
"Tom we're really not thinking about Danny being taken as a prisoner, and then breaking him out of the place again?" Dougie asked, but Tom continued to look at Holly. "This is insane!" He was about to open the back door of the ban but I grabbed his arm.
"It will be safer for all of us Dougie." He looked at me like I was insane.
"You're siding with them now?!" He yelled at me making me cringe.
"I'm just thinking about our safety!" He looked away from me. Disappointment in his eyes.
"I thought you liked helping people, I guess I was wrong." He shrugged my hand off his arm and he sat down in the corner of the van. I could feel the lump in my throat and the tears swelling up.
"Jackass." I slid down the side of the van and pulled my knees up to my chest, wrapping my arms around my legs and I buried my face in my arms.
"Let's go." Harry said and then I felt the van moving forward again.
(Danny's P.O.V.)
I stood by the bedroom window and watched my 'friends' drive away. I could have made it but part of me wanted to stay, I felt like I didn't belong with them anymore.
"Aaaah!" I jumped to the sound of people screaming downstairs. What the hell is going on? I left the room and made my way to the Great Hall. I noticed the doors were slightly opened. I walked over and saw the blue haired woman from Darkastle inside. I opened the doors more and slid inside without drawing attention.
"Tell me Aries, where is your daughter and her friend?" Aries was down on his knees and he seemed to be crying, and then I noticed the body in front of him. It was his wife, or was, she had a hold through her body and she was lying in a pool of blood.
"I will not tell you anything." Aries said sternly as he looked up to Irena.
"Fine then, your life ends here." She swung her sword to his neck but it instantly melted. She pulled her sword back and inspected it. "I see you daughter can now build barriers around people from great distances." Aries glared back at her but she smiled.
She walked away from Aries and walked to two men who where both maybe 6'5".
"Bar the exits shut and lock the doors when you leave this room." One of the men nodded. She smiled and began walking over to the people who stood in front of me. "Remove the trash and clean up the spill." They nodded and left, making me known to her. "Why hello there. Why aren't you with your friends?" I gulped but I showed no fear.
"They're not my friends anymore." She cocked her eyebrow and smiled.
"Such a shame." She put her hand on my right shoulder and walked around me. "So are they your enemies?" The image of Tom and Holly in the tub together popped into my head.
"Yes, they are." She faced me again and smiled.
"Welcome aboard then."
(Elena's P.O.V.)
I sat in the same position for the rest of the ride until Tom finally pulled over for our rest, I still didn't move though. I was so surprised and hurt by what Dougie said to me, I didn't feel like talking to anyone.
"Elena?" Harry shook my arm a bit but I pulled it away from him. "Come on Elena, we need you to build us a shelter again."
"Leave her alone, the only person who should talk to her right now is the person who made her like this." Tom said, referring to Dougie.
"She still needs to hide the van!" Dougie yelled from a distant.
"Dougie shut up! She doesn't have to do anything until she forgives you!" Tom yelled. I heard Dougie mumble some words but I couldn't make them out. "Come on Harry, let's go set up camp." Tom said more quietly.
"Sure." I heard their footsteps leave the van and I continued to sit there. Why do I feel so hurt? I've never felt so awful.
I was soon able to fall asleep for a good four hours, but I started to get cold and I started shivering. Next time you have to run for your life Elena, make sure you bring a jacket and long pants instead of a halter top and shorts! Suddenly a blanket covered my body and I felt hands rubbing my arms, making me feel warm.
"Thank you." I felt so much better; I didn't even bother to open my eyes.
"Well I can't let you freeze." My eyes shot open and I looked up to see a very tired looking Dougie.
"WH-!" I was about to yell at him but he put his finger against my lips to stop me.
"I'm sorry about flipping out on you. It's just, I've been with the guys for five years, and when Tom and Harry decided they wouldn't go back for Danny, that kinda hurt." I looked up into his blue eyes.
"At least you know how I feel about abandoning my home and family." He didn't say anything. "Dougie, I'm scared, I've lost my home and now my parents could be dead. How am I supposed to face Irena's army?" He pulled me into a hug and he wrapped his arms around my waist while I held onto his shirt. Tears just started pouring from my eyes.
"You shouldn't be scared, you have us and we're not going anywhere." He looked down at me and smiled. "I promise you, I won't leave you." I smiled back.
"I'd like that." He let out a chuckle. He shipped the tears off my face and then he looked at my lips, which made me giggle.
"Go ahead." He looked into my eyes and smiled again, and then he kissed me. His lips made me feel so much warmer, and then he slipped his tongue between my lips. He explored with his tongue, making me moan and he would laugh at my reaction.
"Geez Elena, you really need to relax." He pulled me down next to him and we laid on the floor of the van together.
"Well you still need to be careful about which buttons to push or you might get burned." He chuckled and kissed the top of my head.
'So, feel any better?" I sighed.
"Besides the fact t my home is gone?" He gave me a stern look and I sighed again. "Yeah, you're talking to me again."
"I mentally kicked myself several times for yelling at you, besides I could never stay mad at you forever." He said with a smile. I smiled back but it soon fated and he noticed. "What's wrong?"
"It's Holly, she's hiding something." Dougie gave me a confused look.
"How do you know?"
"I've known her for a while now, so I'm pretty sure I know if she's hiding something or not."
"Oh…so what do you think she's hiding?" I thought to myself for a minute.
"Well she was happy at the banquet, but she did look a bit frustrated when we told her Irena was coming, but the way she looks now isn't frustration." Dougie cocked his eyebrow.
"Then what is it?" I shrugged.
"It looks like she's hurt and sad, but she won't say anything."
"How come?" I sighed.
"Holly isn't the type of person to spill the beans." Dougie rubbed my arm in a comforting way.
"Hey, let's think about this tomorrow. We both need our rest and it would be best to talk to Holly in the morning." I nodded and rested my head against his chest.
"Night Dougie."
"Night Elena." It was amazing how fast I fell asleep in his arms. I've never felt so safe in my life! This almost feels like a dream, but it's not.
Son I began dreaming and an image of Danny came into my head. He seemed to be walking away from something. Then something caught my attention on the ground were three bodies. I pushed one of them over and it was Harry, I turned over another body and discovered Tom, and then I came to the last body. I turned the body over and gasped. There, lying with his eyes open and tears sliding down his cheeks, in the puddle of blood was Dougie. I started crying and collapsed on top of him.
"Aaah!" I sat up, gasping for air. Harry, Tom, Dougie, and Holly were all standing at the doors of the van, starring at me.
"Elena, are you alright?" Tom asked me with a worried look. I didn't answer.
"Did you have a nightmare?" Harry asked. I simply nodded. Then someone put their hand on top of mine.
"Do you want to talk about it?" I looked up to Dougie, holding back my tears and shook my head.
"Alright give her some air." Tom said and the boys started getting in the van. Just before I closed the van doors behind Holly, she grabbed my arm.
"What was it?" Should I tell her?
"The boys, they were killed." I whispered and her eyes widened.
"By who?" She whispered back. I took a breath.
"I…I don't know." I lied. She nodded and sat against the side of the van. I noticed Harry started driving the van and Tom was watching Holly from the passenger seat. I can't believe I lied to her, but I guess we're even since she won't tell me what's wrong.
I looked over at Dougie who was sitting across from Holly, fiddling with a piece of string her found. I sat down next to him and leaned against his arm.
"Still cold?" He said with a chuckle.
"Uh…yeah." I'm getting used to lieing now. He chuckled again and wrapped his left arm around me.
"It's alright, I'll make you warm." He said, but I didn't really listen. I was too busy thinking about my dream. Did Danny really abandon us?
