Kylie's POV

I ran off the yellow bus and sped inside of the orphanage where I was greeted by mrs.Melissa, the owner.

"Hey Kylie, how was school?"

I shrugged. "Boring."

"Do you have a lot of homework?"

This was a good excuse.

"Yeah,I'm gonna go do that now." With that I rushed up the creaky stairs to my room, where I was finally alone. I slipped off my backpack and walked up to my full sized mirror, grabbing the purple razor taped to the back. Scanning my reflection I pushed the blade down into my sore skin, every time I thought of a word about myself.

Ugly...

Fat....

Worthless....

Bratty....

Awkward....

Hideous....

And the list went on.

As I felt the familiar and satisfying

Burning going through my arms I heard the front door opening, and people coming in. They were talking but they weren't American. They sounded British. I ignored them though and continued my little "after school routine." By now I had tears streaming down my face and the old pink healing cuts as well as the newly made ones were all gushing blood. I walked into the bathroom still clutching the razor. I dropped it onto the counter and began to clean the cuts up. As I was walking out of the connected bathroom I looked at my Taylor swift poster on my wall in awe. She's so flawless. She's the one who gets me through all this. Without Taylor's music....id have nothing. Throughout my 12 years of life, I've been raped and abused. That's why the police put me here. My mom died giving birth to me and my dad would come home everyday drunk and beat me or "give me away" for the night to other drunk men who sexually abused me for money. I say down cross legged on my bed and pulled on my rubber Taylor swift bracelets over the newly made marks so that nobody would see them. I grabbed my guitar from next to my bed and started lightly strumming random chords, trying to think of a song to sing and play. I decided on change by Taylor swift.

"And it's a sad picture, the final blow hits ya...somebody else gets what you wanted again.....you know it's all the same, another time and place...repeating history and you're getting sick of it....."

I ended the song and stopped singing, when someone lightly knocked on the door. I walked over and unlocked the door, and slowly opened it to find 5 boys standing there smiling down at me. I took a step back. After going through what I have, you don't trust people very quickly or easily. But something seemed nice and friendly about them, even though they hadn't said anything yet.

"Hi! I'm Louis!" One in a striped shirt excitedly exclaimed.

"Um h-hi I'm k-Kylie..."

"Don't be scared...we're not going to hurt you. I promise." A blonde haired one said softly. These must've been the voices I heard. Except his accent isn't British. It's definitely Irish.

"We're here to adopt you, love!" A curly brown haired spoke up.

"But only if that's ok with you, of course." One with chocolate brown eyes and brown hair added.

I wondered why they wanted me. Surely Melissa told them about my history and how messed up I am now right? I slowly nodded anyways.

"Um...are you guys...um all 5 of you...in like a relationship or something?...." I trailed off because if you ask me, that's a pretty awkward question....

A boy with dark olive skin and raven black hair chuckled.

"Nope we're in a band together and we all share a flat." He answered.

"What's a flat?" I questioned, not knowing their British/Irish vocabulary.

"A flat is basically just a house. And I'm Liam by the way, love." The one with brown hair and brown eyes answered. I nodded in understandment.

"Your accents so cute!" The Irish one gushed.

My eyes widened. I was not the one with an accent here!

"But I don't have an accent!" I protested. He just chuckled at me. And then i did something I haven't done in ages. I smiled. For some reason, I feel so comfortable with these boys...and I don't even know their names! I only know Liam and Louis. I spoke up.

"Can I at least know your names before I come and live with you?"

The curly haired one started.

"I'm Harry!"

Then Louis, the excited one added on,

"I said it before but I'm Louis!" He grinned.

I nodded and listened as they all told me their names.

Harry, Louis, Zayn, Niall, and Liam.

They helped me pack my small amount of stuff an clothes, and we walked out of the room. The razor was still there, sitting on the bathroom counter. After we had said goodbye to Mrs. Melissa, the boys walked me outside to a big white limo. I stood there, staring at it in amazement.

"You like it Kylie?" Harry asked, smiling at my reaction. I nodded and followed Niall in, when the driver opened the door. Niall was on my left and Liam on my right.

"Get comfy ky, it's gonna be a long trip." Niall softly told me. I was a little nervous but something felt right about all this.

"This is for you. For the car ride and flight." Liam smiled Handing me a turtle pillow pet. I said thank you and took it graciously from him.

"Are you about a size 12 in clothes and a 6 in shoes?" Zayn asked.

"Yeah....exactly...why?" I questioned.

"Because out girlfriends are getting your closet ready and they're decorating your room!" Louis answered for Zayn.

"Really?!" My eyes lit up and I got really excited. Harry nodded and I smiled like an idiot.

We all just talked and got to know each other until, later that night when we boarded our flight to the UK. I was sitting next to Liam, and the other boys were across from us.

"Go to sleep boo. It's gonna be a long flight and it's already 11:30." Liam whispered gently to me, while he layed my head on his shoulder.

I looked up at him.

"Boo?"

"Yep that's your nickname."

I smiled and closed my eyes. Maybe things will turn out right this time.

And with that I drifted off into a deep sleep.
