**Audri’s POV**
I couldn’t sleep on the flight, of course I got stuck next to a middle-aged man who snores, right? So, I got off the plane feeling tired and a bit grouchy, but I immediately pushed the feeling away; I’m in England to live with my favorite cousin and his girlfriend. I’m away from the bullies, I’m away from the name-calling and the bitches of yesterday - well, six hours ago - and I’m in a new place. I can make a new name for myself, I can be whoever I want to be. Be yourself, a voice told me. I just sighed, walking off the plane with my backpack slung over my shoulder. I stepped out of the plane and it was very packed. There were tons of people here, but why?
My eyebrows furrowed together as I continued on my way to where I was told Liam would be. I looked around and suddenly heard my name being called. “DRI!” I heard a familiar voice call, only one person calls me Dri, and that’s Liam. “Lee-Lee!” I shouted, turning and smiling widely at him before hugging him tightly. He laughed, hugging me and spinning me around.
“How’ve you been, Dri?” He asked me, putting me down on my feet. I smiled up at him. “A million times better now that I’m.. away.” I told him honestly, hooking my arm through his as we made our way to baggage claim.
“So, we live in an apartment building, the top floor is reserved for us.” He told me as we got into the sleek black car. His fans were screaming out to him, and I told him it was fine for him to talk to a few so he did.
“There are a couple huge apartments there. You, Danielle and I will be sharing one, Louis and Harry share one and Niall and Zayn share one.” He told me, smiling down at me.
“And I won’t be.. annoying? Or in the way or anything, right?” I asked him, biting my lip. He nodded enthusiastically. “Of course,” He said, laughing. “We have a spare bedroom that we didn’t know what to do with, so we’re glad you’re here to help us out!” He said happily. I laughed a bit, nodding and looking out the window as the streets of London passed by me.
“Since I’m you’re legal guardian until you go back with you mum.. you’ll have to come along for most of the concerts, signings, interviews..” He told me, ticking everything off. “If we have a tour you’ll be coming with us,” He told me, winking at me before going on with everything.
“And there are a few rules,” He told me sternly as we parked in the back of a parking lot. I nodded for him to continue. The driver grabbed my bags and was making his way into the apartment. I went to go take them, but Liam stopped me. “The rules?” He said, smiling a bit. I rolled my eyes, sitting back down and letting him tell me the rules.
“Number one, you must eat at least three meals a day. No exceptions, I don’t care if you’re hungry or not. Three meals until you’re healthy again.” He told me, his eyes getting softer as he looked into mine. I huffed, nodding a bit. “Number two, no cutting.” He told me, I bit my lip. “I don’t cut anymore.” I muttered, I gave up after Lily caught me and almost had a heart attack.
“And Number three,” He started, looking me dead in the eyes. “No falling for any of the guys.” He told me sternly, as if this was the most important rule. “Just.. trust me, we’ll be with them all the time okay? And they’re a lot more fragile than they look. Oh, and I almost forgot, don’t go anywhere without someone with you. Either one of the guys, who’ll bring a body guard, or a body guard. You’ll probably like Paul.” He said, opening his car door and jumping out. I did the same, hearing the doors lock as we started to walk away. I adjusted my backpack and smiled as I saw a familiar head of dark, curly hair run towards us in her heels.
She hugged me tightly. “I missed you, Audri!” She said, kissing my cheek before pulling away. I laughed a bit, nodding at her. “Yeah, and now you’ll get sick of me.” I told her, matter-of-factly. She rolled her eyes, hooking her arm through mine. “It feels great to have another girl around, we can have a few girls nights! We can kick Liam out, and we can do each others nails or maybe we can go shopping some time soon! I saw you only brought two suitcases!? You need more clothes, babe!” She said quickly as we walked into the apartment building. I laughed a bit nervously.
