Lara's P.O.V
When we entered into David's room, he was talking to someone on his phone. We weren't able to quite understand, what he was speaking but, the look on his face was something disturbing. The moment he saw us, he spoke something fast and hung up. That thing, was something mysterious to me. But, I ignored that thought. Maybe, I was thinking excess.
"Heeyyyy, how are you all?" David wished us. But, the look on his face wasn't satisfied to me at all. 'He is hidding something', I thought to myself. My thoughts were disturbed by Mia saying something. "Yeah, we are Of-course fine. How are you feeling?" Mia asked, motioning towards David. "Feeling better. I suppose." David said, with a smile.
I looked at John and his expression was something like me. I guess, he noticed the same thing? "We wanted to talk to you about something." Leo said, while sitting on the couch beside the bed. "That's something important." Tristan folded his arms. "And, urgent for us." John said, sitting on the bed beside David. David's expression got hardened and I was able to feel that thing.
"What is it?" David asked, looking everywhere. "I have come up with some of my fashion designing assignments and has to be completed by 4th of May here itself. I won't be able to visit Paris tomorrow, so, we wanted you to postpone the date, as you are the eldest among us." I shrugged my shoulders, as I ended my sentence. "My mom will ask me a lot of questions and I'll have to answer. It will be better, if you first let them know and then we will. So that, it won't be a problem." I explained him a little more.
Everyone gave him a nod, meaning that I was right. It looked like, David was thinking of something and then he gave us a nod, without questioning any of us. "Okay, I'll do the things. There is no need to take stress. Everything will be fine. Your parents won't think much nor will question you anything." David gave us a small smile with his arms fold. "That's better." Mia said, nodding. "Have you guys, had breakfast?" David asked, lying back on the bed. "Yeah, we grabbed some food on the way here." Mia sighed. "If you are still hungry, then, you can go and eat something from the canteen." David said, with his eyes closed.
"We will give you some time to take rest, then." Tristan said, while giving us a look of, 'let's go in the canteen'. We all moved out of the room and walked to the canteen to have some beverages or some food. Maybe. "Did you notice one thing?" John said, folding his arms. "Yes, I did." Leo said, nodding. "I too, did." I said, sitting on a chair beside John. "If it's about the 'disturbing look on David's face' then, I too did." Tristan said, with a stern look on his face. Mia just nodded. And, their again fell the silence. The silence was broken by Mia.
"I don't know, if it's right to suspect my own brother. Yeah, it's a different thing that, David is my cousin. But, it's now about us. About, Louise. About, the threats." Mia gave us all a serious look. "I agree." Leo said, encircling an arm around Mia. "My brain isn't able to take more of it. I need some cold coffee." Tristan said, while he walked away. "You need anything, baby." John gave me a questioning look. I nodded. "Just a cup of cold coffee. It will work." I said, with a small smile. "I'll also come with you." Leo said, getting up from the chair and they both walked away.
Mia and I were only left, now. I was sure, something was going on inside Mia. She had many doubts, of-course, like me. Now, one more person got included in our suspect list. I don't know, what the fuck that caller was saying about our group. Our group had just five members and none. But, for that caller, someone from our group helped Louise's aunt. I hope Ashton, doesn't know anything about it. "Lara, what will happen next?" Mia asked, giving me a sad look.
"Everything will be fine. Don't worry. Just remember that, it's for us, what we are doing. It's for Louise. Okay." I gave her a small smile and she gave me a small nod. The boys got back with our coffee in there hands. They gave us our respective coffee and then sat on their respective places. Again, no one spoke. But, just drank the coffee. We all were in trouble. If we don't solve the case then, we won't be spared by that caller.
"What's the time?" Leo asked, with his eyes on the floor. After, 2 or 3 minutes, Tristan spoke, "It's 1 PM. It's almost afternoon. We should get going." "But, let's first go and meet David." Mia said, getting up from the chair. We all went back into David's room. When we went in, he was asleep. "I don't think, it's right to wake him up. After, we will reach back in the farmhouse, will just give him a call?" It was mostly a question, which I asked. "It will work. I guess." John said, moving out of the room, with us following him.
The way back to the house was again a silent ride. No one spoke a single word. We just had our own thoughts going on in our head. The silent treatment was killing me. The shit of that caller was killing me. Of-course, we need to solve it, but, it doesn't mean that, the caller will play with our lives. There was a day, when no one used to like any kind of the silent treatment. My thoughts were again disturbed by someone.
Not someone, idiot. It's Tristan.
I am going mad. I guess.
I need to calm my nerves down.
"Are we celebrating anyone's death?" Tristan said, with an irritating voice. "Why?" John asked, with an eyebrow raised. "Then, why in the fuck everyone is silent?" Tristan shouted. "The silence is killing me, to be honest." I said, with a nod. "We seriously need to take our minds off of these things." Mia said, eyeing us. "Excatly." Leo said, while taking a turn towards the mall. "Where are we going?" John asked, with his eyes wide. "Shopping." Mia, I and Tristan screamed in unison. Everyone broke out into a laugh.
After, we reached small, Mia pulled me with her. I didn't even get a glance of the boys or John. "Waaiiittt!!" I shouted, ended up laughing. "We need to buy some dresses and some lingerie. Maybe." Mia winked towards me. And, I knew, what she was talking about. The black lingerie, which I bought once, was tore by John. By thinking that made my cheeks go a tint of pink. Mia saw that and started laughing like a hyena. I gave her my best death glare, but, failed. "Sshhuuttt uuppp!!" I tried to remove my hand from Mia's hold, but, failed. So great. "What? You need some extra pieces. He will just tear every lingerie, you will wear." Mia teased me.
"What about you? Huh?" I gave her a teasing look. And, a tint of pink spreaded on her cheeks. "I got you." I burst out, laughing. "I don't care." Mia said, trying to hide that smile forming on her lips. We went into the Victoria's Secret. Mia bought a red colour lingerie and a pink one. Those two lingerie were way too hot. "Leo will die, tonight." I said, in her ears. Now, Mia's face was crimson red. I again burst out laughing. I bought again, a black lingerie but a blue too. Did I tell you, my favourite colour is black and blue? Ohhhhh, these two colours are amazing. I just love them.
After, we were done buying lingeries, we went in Forever 21 to by some dresses. "What type of dresses, would you like ma'am?" The lady asked. "Something sexy and hot." Mia said, mostly asking her. "Sure. Wait." The lady said, and went away. After some time, she brought three dress. One was of red colour, second was of green colour and the third was of black. The dresses were so smooth to touch and was so sophisticated. Mia and I, we both looked at each other. And, the next moment, Mia was inside the changing room. Mia is adorable.
After some minutes passed, Mia came outside the changing room to show me the dress. The red colour dress, fitted her perfectly. It was sleeveless and had a thick strap around the neck. By the look of it, I was sure, it was comfortable to wear. But, wasn't that hot, Mia wanted the dress to be.
"Okay, I guess." I gave her a nod and she knew, what I was talking about. She again went inside and came out in the black dress. It didn't fit her curves, fully. It was something medium. The dress was off-shoulder and it came till her knees. I just gave her a small smile. She understood it and again went inside.
Now, she came out in the green dress. Believe me. She was looking hot as fuck. The dress had straps with a deep neck and came, just above her knees. My jaw literally dropped down. She was looking stunning. "Amazing!" A wide smile spreaded across her face. "Buy it. This dress was made for you." I said, giving her a tight hug. "I will. Of-course." Mia said, while hugging me back. "Now, it's your turn." Mia said, handing the green dress to that lady.
I was about to ask the lady to show me some hot dresses, but, before I could, she went away. After some time, she brought three dresses. One with black, second was blue and the third was red. The dresses were beyond amazing. They were jaw-dropping dresses.
"Try these dresses." Mia said, excitedly. I went into the changing room and tried the black dress. I came out with the black dress on. It was off-shoulder and came till my mid-thigh. Mia didn't say anything but, just shaked her head. I knew it. The black dress was too plain.
I again, went inside. And, tried the blue dress on. To me, the blue dress was more like a night lace dress. As, it had lace at the end of the dress. But, Mia's views were important. I went out with the blue dress on. Mia just said, "I don't think, it's better. Try the last one." I gave her a nod and went inside again.
I tried the red dress. The dress hugged my curves so perfectly. As if, it was made for me. The dress had straps with a criss-cross pattern. I went out and the expression on Mia's face was priceless. "So damn hot!!!! Get it bitch." She said, slightly clapping her hands. "I love it." I changed back to my normal clothes again and asked the lady to pack the dresses.
After, we were done shopping, we searched for the boys. As usual, they were sitted in the food court but, had some shopping bags. We waved towards them and they waved back. "Did you guys do shopping as well?" I asked, wide eyes. "Like, seriously." Mia had the same expression as mine. The boys just nodded and laughed.
We ordered food, chit-chatted, had lunch. The afternoon was better than the morning. Atleast. It was fun, you know. The time passed and we didn't even realize that it was already 3 pm. It was almost evening, when we returned back at the farmhouse. The dinner wasn't yet prepared, and we didn't have enough time to prepare it. As soon as, we entered the house, Mia and I, entered into the kitchen, to prepare food. Surprisingly, the boys also joined us in the preparation of the dinner. They helped us with the vegetables cutting, Mia and I just made the dinner. The dinner got ready by 6 pm.
"We all should take some rest." Leo said, stretching his arms. "It was a long day." Mia said, with a tired face. "Really, guys. The day was tiring." Tristan said, while motioning towards the stairs. "I am going to take rest." I said, while walking towards the stairs. "Me, too." John sighed. We all went back to our rooms. I directly went in the bathroom to take a shower. It was a long and a tiring day. I have to be prepared for tonight.
After, I had a shower, I wore a comfy and a casual wear. I was tired to even move my feet an inch. As soon as, I laid on my bed, the sleep consumed me. But, before that, I heard the door of my room opening and then closing and someone pulling me close. I was so tired to even open up my eyes and see, who is it. And, I fell into a great slumber.
