You're Our Bodyguard? (5sos)

Chapter twenty

Luke's point of view

I kept my head in my hands, shaking my head because of sobs that shook my body. I couldn't help him, I couldn't do anything. He had a gun pointed at me and threatened to shoot me if I moved. I was defenseless and scared. My mind wasn't running properly then, and it isn't now.

I could have kept them from taking Michael, but I didn't. I wanted to stop them, but I didn't. And now Michael is god knows where, scared shitless, and probably having god knows what done with him.

"Luke listen, it'll be fine," Ally said, rubbing my shoulder. I shook her off, not believing it one bit. Nothing's 'fine'. Nothing will ever be 'fine'. We're in a fucking nightmare right now and the only problem is, there is no waking up from this.

First it was Chanel and now it is Michael. They took my girlfriend and she's been who knows where for who knows how long. Now they have Michael, and soon they'll have all of us.

I cried even harder, so hard I physically fell off the couch and on to my knees. All I could hear was bickering between Calum and Isabelle and my sobs. I was a wreck right now.

"No you listen to me Isabelle," Calum yelled. "Nothing is fine, okay? Face it. Its not gonna be fine until we can go outside without the fear of being jumped, kidnapped, and/or killed." he yelled.

"I know what I am doing and I know where we are going. I am getting your best friend and Luke's girlfriend back tomorrow and everything is going to be just fine. Now calm down and go take a nap or something." Isabelle replied and Calum started laughing.

We're all going insane. Calum's scared so much he's not thinking about the good anymore, just the bad. Ashton's not his normal self either, he's quiet and dull. Ally is a bit stressed out. I'm an emotional wreck. Michael isn't even here. And Isabelle is stressed the fuck out and on the bridge of shooting everyone and everything.

"-a nap? A fucking nap? My best friend has been kidnapped and you want me to take a nap?" Calum asked loudly. "I can barely sleep as is, do you think I'm gonna sleep knowing my best friend is in danger?"

"You're all in danger," she said seriously. "Regardless of if you're taken or not, you're all in danger. You are all wanted, dead or alive to some psychotic man for reasons I do not know. You're guys' best shot of making it out of this alive and sane is if you keep calm and let me do my job." she said.

"Now if you all would just listen," she said and I felt someone beside me. I didn't even need to look, I could feel their presence. "Luke, honey, calm down. I'll get your friend and girlfriend back, I swear on my grave that I will."

That didn't help one bit. "I'm done with this," I heard her mumble. Next thing I knew I was being picked up. I didn't struggle, only because I was too tired to. I was drained physically from lack of sleep and emotionally from everything that's been happening.

"Look up buddy," I heard Ashton say softly. I looked up and saw his hazel eyes. I felt like a child. A two year old sitting on his older brother's lap. I leaned my head on his chest and he just held me for a while. It was uncomfortable since I was quite broad and he was small but we managed.

"You gotta calm down, okay? Everything's gonna be fine, trust me when I say this. It's not fine right now, no, but it will be. Just like I always said, right?" he said softly and I nodded as I sniffed. "What is it that I always say?"

"Th-Tha-at no-othing lasts for-rever," I said and he nodded. My words were broken up by gasps but he didn't seem to care.

"Yes and what else?" he asked me and I thought about it. My thoughts were all jumbled up and Michael alwas seemed to make his way into it.

It took a second to remember but as soon as I did, I told him, trying my bets to say it without breaking it up. "Everyth-thing will b-be fine, ju-ust give it s-some ti-me," I said and he nodded again.

"Bingo," he said. "We'll get your girlfriend back and we will get Michael back. Trust me when I say this, if not, trust Isabelle when she says this, we will get those two back." he said and I nodded.

"Now you need to calm down. There was nothing you, or any of us could do. The last thing you need to be worried about is something you couldn't help." he told me and I nodded.

"Listen up you guys," I heard Isabelle say and I turned my had to look at her. "Tomorrow you all will be taken to my company's headquarters and you will stay there until I'm back from saving your friends." she said.

"But you're hurt really badly, Isabelle you can't keep doing this." I heard Ally say and I closed my eyes. I have a killer headache now. "You can't keep pushing yourself past your limits. You can't even walk right right now."

"It doesn't matter." she said. "I owe you guys your friends and I'm getting them. You'll be staying in the headquarters and I will go out, with the help of other agents, to get the two." she said.

"What if you can't? Something bad could happen to you. You're pushing yourself too much, something is gonna happen." Ashton said, he sounded worried, we all were.

"I either come back with your friends, or your friends come back to you with the other agents." she said and I snapped my eyes open. I heard someone choke on something and we all stared at her shocked. Did she just?

"You should have known from the moment I walked through that door. I either will make it out of this alive, or dead. I swore I would keep you all safe and I'm not doing a good job at it." she said seriously.

"Don't-Don't say that." Calum said. "Just-Don't remind us of that-I can't." Calum struggled to speak and I leaned my head back on Ashton's shoulder. This is all so much. After a sad, awkward silence, Isabelle broke it.

"Now, who's hungry?" I hard her ask, probably trying to lighten the mood. I raised my hand since I couldn't find the words to say. My throat was dry and I felt more tears fill my eyes.

Just the thought of her not coming back was scaring the living shit out of me. Imagine if she really doesn't, how would it feel then? Would it be a thousand times worse? Or will I be numb to all feeling ever?

"I'll go cook something up," she said and I sighed.

"Ashton," I whispered and he hummed. "My head hurts," I whispered back and I felt him nod.

"Mine too," he said softly. "I'll go get use some medicine." he said and I nodded. I got off of his lap and he walked away to get the medicine.

Hey guys, sorry this is so short, but I owe you all an update after the long way. I would have made it longer but my head is killing me right now. Next update might be tomorrow, or later on if my head stops hurting. This is unedited but as soon as I feel better I'll edit it.
I love you guys and can't thank you enough for all the reads and votes and comments. You're the best. xx
