Adopted

Chapter 34

*Laurens POV *

It's been a week now. Ashton is still in the hospital. Avie and Riley have been taking care of me and Harry. Larry Stylinson even came over for two days and we all had one huge pillow fight. Luke hasn't left the hospital except for school. He was always by Ashy's side.

Riley let us do her hair and nails and make up. We even put on a fasion show while Avie was cooking dinner. Av couldn't stop laughing when Riley put her hair in a mohawk. okay... I put Riley's hair in a mohawk- but it was funny. Riley just went up to Avie and kissed her while they were both laughing. It was cute.

Luke came over one night and brought us food. He's like an older brother. He's so nice to me and Harry. He has to pick me, Harry, Riley, and Avie up for school. Avie does my hair and Riley picks out Harry's outfit. It's been working out very well... but I miss my brother.

I'm 11 and I know about rape. I know about abuse. And I know about my abusive father who raped my older brother. Harry is 7 and he does not know about rape or abuse. He doesn't know that our father is in jail. But I do, along with Riley, Avie, Luke, and Ashton. But little Harry can't know.

*Avies POV *

Lauren and Harry are in the guest room and me and Riley are in mine. She is currently playing big spoon and I am currently playing 'I'm not asleep but I'm dead in thought.'

"Baby, what's wrong? Tell me. I know your not asleep." She whispered.

"I get it." I sighed. "I know how he feels. I was almost raped Ri. You remember that. I felt dirty and scared and just... horrible. It's an awful feeling. I was touched... in so many places that he wasn't supposed to touch. Riley!" I started crying. I gasped for air and she turned me around so I was looking at her.

"Baby- he's gone. Ashton's father- gone. No ones going to hurt you. Not today, not tomorrow. Not ever. No one can touch you but me, your family and friends. Every single one of us is here to protect you and Ashton." She said. And it calmed me down. A lot. I was breathing normally by the time she finished.

"Thank you babe." I said and she kissed my cheek.

"Go to sleep. Tomorrow is Monday and we all have school. Goodnight baby. Love you." She said.

"I love you too Riley." And with that I fell asleep.

*Lukes POV*

It is now 6:30 and I have to go to Avie's to drive them to school. We have 2 more hours but I help them with breakfast and getting the kids ready.

"Ashy. I gotta go now. I'll see you after school okay? I love you." I said and kissed his forehead. I don't want to kiss him because I have morning breath because the bathroom here is gross and I have yet to eat breakfast. I'll brush my teeth after breakfast.

"I love you too. See you after 7 fücking hours." He mumbled showing fake cheerfulness.

I laughed softly and kissed his forehead.

I got in my car and drove to Avies house. More like mansion. Her rich parents can pay for stuff like that I suppose.

When I got inside I was met by Lauren running around the house. Why? I don't know.

"Lauren, baby, what are you doing? Why are you running?" I asked.

"I'm tierd and I need to wake up!" She yelled/mumbled tiredly.

"Lauren!" Avie.screamed as she came in to the living room, her pants halfway down her legs and pulling then up, her hair a mess and no make up on. And yet she still looks beautiful. "Just throw some cold water on your face. Ah!" She screamed as she fell. She gave up and just put her pants on while she was on the floor. She had no shirt on- just a black bra with blue lace. Her pants were the same color blue of the lace. She had a shirt on the floor which she dropped when she fell. "Fuck." She mumbled. "Don't you dare ever say that Laur!" She lectured when she realized Lauren was still in the room.

I shook my head and laughed. "Where's Harry?" I asked. The. Riley came in and laughed at her girlfriend who was struggling to put her pants on while laying down.

"Sleeping. He gets up at 7:00. He likes the extra sleep." Riley said and helped Avie stand. Avie tripped and Riley caught her and laughed again as Avie pouted.

"Jeez. Your more clumsy than Luke, Avie! Do you realize how sad that is!?" Lauren laughed. Avie laughed and I pouted.

"Come on. I'll make pancakes!!" I said. They all maumnled an "okay" and I left to make breakfast. They're chef was sick and so we made all the food. We don't mind though.

--AT LINCH DURING SCHOOL--

*Avie's POV *

Me, like, Riley, Michael and Calum were all sitting at the lunch table. None of us got food because it was gross. We heard cheering and screaming and everyone then ran out of the cafeteria. We all have each other strange looks.

One of the most popular girls at school- the head cheerleader, Kaitlyn- came and sat down next to Calum. The last seat at the table. We, one Eagan, gave each other strange looks.

Then someone grapes my shoulder and I turned around quickly. I saw Zayn and I laughed.

"Hey Avie. Nice to see you again Riley, Luke, Michael and Calum. Umm... who's this? He asked pointing to the cheerleader. He knows and loves all my friends.

"Kaitlyn. Don't mind her. She was just leaving." Michael said.

"Oh. Hi! I'm Kaitlyn! Im te head of the cheerleaders and the most popular girl in school! Why are you leaving one direction?" She asked.

"It's been all over the news. He's streesed and wants to be a normal 22 year old. Leave him alone about it." Luke said. We're all getting tierd of everyone asking US why Zayn was leaving the band.

"So? You'll never be normal again, everyone is still going to know and love Zayn Malik." She stated like it was obvious.

*3rd person POV *

"Shut up. You don't know anything! The only thing you know is how to open you legs, mouth and every other hole in your body besides your ears. Get t through your head, slut. Zaun is leaving the band- yes. But Zayn is still Zayn. Still engaged to Perry. Still loves art. Still loves singing. He just doesn't like them fame as much as your vaginä does. Pïss off." Avie said. Zayn looked at her.

He wa shocked. He was amazed. Shes grown up so much since he first met her. The first time he saw her, she was having a panic attack because she couldn't stand up for herself. Now she's satnding up for him.

Kaitlyn or whatever walked off without another word said.
