My Long Lost Sister

Chapter 3

-Leia-

I lay on my stomach, on the bottom of my bunkbed and stared at my phone. Should I text Liam? Was it too soon?

I had recently got back from my shift, now I was laying on my bed in the orphanage, bored as hell. I had recently graduated from school, and nowardays I had absolutely nothing to do. I lived in a room with 5 girls, Katie obviously who slept above me and, 4 girls named Sara, Heather, Christy and Scarlet. Sara had recently found out both her parents had died in a car crash, just after her birth, I tried to feel bad for her but some how I felt as if my family was dead too.

I don't know why but I was just so used to no family, and I was so used to doing everything myself just the thought of having a family was completely odd. Even though, I longed for one, I just couldn't imagine it.

Katie leaned over the top bunk so her head was hanging down, she faced me, "Someones in LOVEEE" she teased.

"What are you talking about?" I said, jumping at the sudden sound of her voice, "me and Liam aren't even together, honestly I doubt that's even possible".

"BUTT HE FLACKING GAVE YOU HIS NUMBER" Katie said, hopping down the ladder, plopping herself next to me,  "Liam Payne doesn't give everyone his number....it has to mean something".

I rolled my eyes, "I know, I know but for some reason I have this feeling that he doesn't want to date me.....I don't know Katie, but I just know".

Katie stared at me, "but then why?".

I shook my head, "I don't know, if I did I would've texted him already".

"YOU HAVEN'T?" Katie asked, "when a very cute, cerlebrity gives you their number it MEANS you need to text them".

I sighed, "Right, I just don't know what to say".

Start of with like, "WHATS UP, SEXY THAAANG, do you know what material my shirt is? GIRLFRIEND MATERIAAL".

I looked at her like she was insane, then we both burst out laughing at our horrible puns, this was why we were best friends.

"Okay" I said, "I'll do it".

"Great, I'm going to the mess hall to get some food, want some?" she asked.

"Maybe later" I said.

She nodded, winked at me then walked away.

I leaned back against my pillow and clutched my phone in my hands. I pressed his contact and wrote : Hey Liam ('; Its Leia.

I tilted my head back and waited for a reply, in about a minute, I felt my phone vibrate in my palm, I smiled and read his message: 

So that's ur name cx. aha, its beautiful.

I smiled at that, for some weird reason I always hated my name. I wondered if the orphanage named me or my birth parents did. I sighed and wrote a reply:

Really? I absolutely hate it. I'm wondering though, why out of all girls in the place did you give ME your number.

Did that sound insecure of me? I hope it didn't. I was talking to one of the most famous cerleberties in the world, maybe I should read over my messages before I send. As he replied I quickly opened my phone:

You shouldn't cx. And yeah, about that I need to go now, but how about in maybe 2 hours you meet me at greystone park near by? I need to talk to you.

As I read the message I felt confusion erupt me. What did Liam Payne need to talk to me for? There was so many things I already didn't understand in my life.

And now this was adding to the list.

-Liam-

I swung my jacket over my shoulder and stepped out the door, cool air entering my lungs, I shivered as I slowly walked to the park where I was planning on meeting Leia.

In my head, I ran through the words, I should say to her, I couldn't go up to a girl I barely knew and be like "hey, you're my sister". I knew absolutely nothing about this girl, whether she was my sister or not. I had no clue what living state she was in now, maybe she had a family already. This was all so confusing to me.

The boys all went to laser tag, I told them I wasnt feeling well, so they left me to go have fun.

As I approached the park, I scanned the area looking for Leia's long brown hair and bright green eyes. When I spotted her, leaning against a tree, her eyes searching for me to arrive, I bounded up towards her.

"Leia" I said, standing in front of her, smiling.

She smiled back and leaned upwards, "Hey, Liam" she said.

For some reason, I loved the sound of her voice, it was just so melodious. Maybe she could sing like me. I bit my lip, realizing that this girl in front of me was my sister. It was a really weird thought having my own sister not know who I was. I couldn't explain the feeling, but it was absolutely horrendous. I tried to get the words out, but everytime I opened my mouth, my heart started beating a hundred times a minute, making my mouth close.

"So" Leia said, "what does the famous Liam Payne want to talk to me about".

"So tell me about yourself" I said a little too quickly, trying to avoid her question.

Me and Leia began to stroll around the park, Leia began to speak, she sounded startled at the sudden change of topic, but she slowly calmed herself then opened her mouth "There's nothing to know, grew up in the orphange for as long as I could remember, just graduated school, looking for a scollership in a music program" she dreared on, sighing deeply.

Orphange. That meant she has no family . But, that didn't make any sense, how did she get there? How did she disapear from the hospital?

"I'm sorry" I said, flashing her a sympathetic smile, "do you know of your family?".

She sighed again, "I wish.......I kind of assumed they died".

As she said that, I felt bad. Really bad. This girl grew up with nobody, this girl had no real people that cared about her. She was all on her own. Even though I barely knew her, the thought of someone like her, being miserable made me shudder.

"Listen" I said, I took a deep breath, "about what I needed to talk about.............".

Just that instant, Leia's phone began to ring. I exaled deeply. Great, just when I had gotten the courage to speak up.......there had to be an interuption.

Once she hung up, she shot me a sad look, "sorry Liam, it was nice talking to you.....but Katie called saying something urgent happened".

"Really, is everything alright?" I asked, worriedly.

"I'm not sure" she said, "I'm sorry Liam...whatever you need to tell me I'm sure its important but....".

"No worries" I said smiling, "why don't you come to my house tomorrow, my mum makes excellent pancakes, you can bring a friend".

Before she hurried away, she turned around and said, "I'll be there".

As she ran away, I sunk to the floor. I put my head in my hands.

Well Hell.
