"Out." Kylie snaps at Liam. "Bu-" Liam began to protest. "Don"t start with me Payne." Kylie said as a boy toddled to Liam saying "Uncle Li." I smiled as Liam picked up the toddler. "I'm not hurting anyone." Liam said. Kylie glared and set down a baby girl she was holding. I saw the ice in her stare, so i turned and faced the floor. "Fine. but no funny business." Kylie snapped.

Liam had a grateful smile and began to play with the boy. "I'lll be right back." Liam announced setting Jason down and walking out the door. I'm going to get a speech now, I'm sure of it. "Were You two kissing when I walked in?" Kylie said surprisingly calm as she sat a sleeping baby girl on her bed. " No. but he was getting close to." I say. "Look Cass, I know you look up to Katie and Janessa." Kylie began. " But I'm not going to give up my job nor will I do this without you." Kylie says seriously as she watched Jason waddle around the room. "I know Ky. I didn't want him to kiss me though." I said. Did I? I thought to myself. No. I couldn't have. Could I?

Liam walked in just then. As he did there were screams. Liam scooped up Jason in his arms and I grabbed Ara. Kylie shot out of the room, "It's Niall." Katie said running up the stairs.

*Kylie*

"I can't sing." Katie muttered.. "Tell me the words, I'm not a pro but I can sing lullaby's." I told her. She nodded and ran over it quickly as we entered Niall's room.

"Over in Killarney"

Niall stirred in his fitful screams

"Many years ago,  

Me Mither sang a song to me  

In tones so sweet and low.  

Just a simple little ditty,  

In her good ould Irish way,  

And l'd give the world if she could sing  

That song to me this day."

He began to calm as Katie whispered the next verse to me.

Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li,  

Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, hush now, don't you cry! 

Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, Too-ra-loo-ra-li,  

Too-ra-loo-ra-loo-ral, that's an Irish lullaby"

Niall's breathing but the screams stopped and he mouthed along to the words.

Oft in dreams I wander  

To that cot again,  

I feel her arms a-huggin' me  

As when she held me then.  

And I hear her voice a -hummin'  

To me as in days of yore,  

When she used to rock me fast asleep  

Outside the cabin door"

When I finished Katie gave me a warm smile, the first sign of the Katie Hallows I always heard about. Katie stayed by Niall's side for another moment. Before leaving she kissed him on the forehead. I lead the way out and as Katie shut the door she breathed with relief . I turned around to see five astonished faces. I gave a nervous smile. "Hey Kylie." Katie said, I turned, "Thanks. That is the fastest we ever got him to calm down. Usually it takes like three times of singing the song to get him quiet." she says happily. "You didn't tell me you can sing!" Cassidy said astonished. "I can't." I laughed. "Did you not just hear yourself did you?" Harry asked as if it were obvious. "You are amazing." Liam said. "Brilliant." Louis added. I kept my eyes on the floor.

When Niall finally awoke he ranted about his dream. How his mum came to him and sang his favorite lullaby. Everyone watched me as he spoke happily about his dream. I just kept a blank face and listened. "Umm Niall," Janessa began carefully. "Yeah?" he said, "What else exactly happened in your dream?" Katie finished, His eyes fell and he looked overcome with emotion. "You were screaming again Ni." Katie placed a hand on his shoulder. Niall avoided her gaze. "How sure are you that it was your mom?" Janessa asked. " I'm sure it was his mum. Maybe he's finally starting to get over this stuff." I say pinching the bridge of my nose. "Ky-" Cass began. "It was his mum." I say sternly. "Wait if I was screaming. Katie says Zayn has to sing to me to calm me down," Niall thinks aloud. I stop and walk out of the room

I walked back to my room. Why would they want Niall to know it was me? What if he is on the path to recovering from the horror he endured? Maybe his mum was the thing he needed to be happy once again. They are being stupid, I swear if I wasn't here to protect them and find Zayn I would cook them like i was a witch. "Thanks Kylie." A soft voice floated from the door. "For what?" I ask, "For helping me out, being the one thing I needed to hear when I was in pain." Niall says making his way to me only stopping a foot in front of me. "I think your mind mum did that much for you." I say

I saw him play with his Jacket sleeve, I reach for it only for him to pull away. I stepped closer encouragingly. When I reached for it this time he let me. I pulled up the sleeve to reveal old scars mixed with a few new scabs. "I never quite understood the point of this." I ran my fingers over his scars. "It helps me." Niall whispered, "I can see that. To me I wonder why people want the reminders of what hurt them." I say.

"I guess your right." he said looking at me. I noticed that now we were inches apart. It might of been how hurt I knew he was or some other reason I can't explain, but when he leaned in I didn't stop him. When he touched my lips with his I didn't bolt like I normally would have. When he stopped, I felt was going through his mind. So I kissed him myself. No matter how much my mind protested.
