The Life of an Orphan (a one direction and 5SOS fanfic)

Chapter 5

"Ughhh!" The four of us were currently trying to haul all these bag of clothes to the car. I'm pretty sure I won't even use half of them. I screamed and nearly dropped the bags I was holding when I felt hundreds of flashes in my face. Of course no one heard it over the loud screaming of teenage girls. Harry quickly got the car started and we all piled in.

"Holy shit you'd think 5 seconds of summer was out there!" I exclaimed, exhausted.

"Watch your language young lady! And. Well. Um. One direction was kinda there and they're kinda a big thing." Harry said timidly.

"Eh. One Direction is overrated anyways. They're just some pop boy band looking for fame and money. I've never heard any of their songs but they probably suck," I said. That's probably the most I've said this whole time.

"Well you wouldn't know that unless you met them. Like. Um. For example do you think we are looking for fame and money? And maybe you should listen to their music too. I have a couple cd's somewhere around here," Zayn said nervously.

"Why would I think that," I asked, suddenly realizing my mistake, "oh my god. You're one direction. Oh my god I'm so sorry. I didn't mean any of it. Omg I'm so sorry." Holy crap I'm an idiot. How did I not notice this before. I'm dead. I'm so embarrassed. I'd be surprised if I wasn't cherry red.

"And just so you know we are not in it for the money or fame. We are doing it because we love it. And I think it fūcking rocks," Louis said. Harry scolded him and shook his head.

I. Am. So. Embarrassed. Just. Kill. Me. I really honestly want to go bury myself in a hole. I almost jumped out of the car when we arrived to the house. But I had to get all my clothes. I quickly shoved the bags in my closet. Still embarrassed. And cherry red. I slowly walked down the stairs. And the only reason I did is because I wanted to apologize again.

"Oh hey look! Allyson's here! Why don't you tell everyone else what you said about us!" Louis exclaimed loudly.

"Chill out Louis. She was just expressing her opinion! I would've done the same thing!" Harry said defending me, and Zayn agreeing.

"What did she say?" Niall and Liam asked in unison. I sat in horror as Louis told the entire shopping spree tale, only stopping to glare at me every few sentences. When he finished Liam and Niall just started laughing.

"Really? That's what you're so angry about? Take a chill pill bro," Niall said laughing his ass off. Louis is giving me the death stare. I can't afford to have one of them hate me, especially if it's my legal guardian. Wait who even is that?

"Umm...haha. Ya super sorry about that. Um ya anyways. Im going to head up to my room but I just wanted to know who my legal guardian is," I asked backing away towards the stairs.

"I VOLUNTEERED AS TRIBUTE!" Harry said jumping up and down. Don't know how to feel about that... I quickly walked up the stairs into my room. I took a shower, happy that it was warm water for once. I got out and put my pj's on. They were purple cheetah print with matching slippers.
----------------------
I decided I should go to bed, it is 1:05 am after all. I walked down the stairs to see if anyone was still up. Just my luck they were all downstairs watching tv, and the stairs creaked like crazy. Oopsie. I was supposed to be asleep at 10. They all turned to look at me. I saw 5 different emotions. From Harry we have sternness. From Louis we have anger, still, really. From Zayn we have, well, no emotion detectable. From Niall we have humor. From Liam we have disappointment.

"Sorry I got thirsty," I ran to the kitchen getting a glass of water. When I left to go back upstairs everyone was still looking at me.

"Look there's a 99.99 percent chance I'm still going to be awake at 4 am so you can choose to lecture me now or later." I said boldly. Where in the world did this anti-shyness come from.

"Well at this age you need a reasonable amount of sleep to grow into a strong, healthy, mature adult," Liam continued, "and I believe that one should get at least 8 hours of sleep no matter the age. So I think you should at least get to bed by 11." Everyone else nodded their heads in agreement and I walked up the stairs. I lie face first in my pillow and think.

~~Flashback~~

Hey! Give that back!" I exclaimed laughing. I was fighting with my brother for the pool volleyball and right now I was splashing around like an idiot.

"Ally-bear, Joshie-boo dinners ready!" Mother called from inside.

"Mom please! Call me Joshua or Josh. Anything but that!" I laughed and kept taunting him with that name. We ate in a comfortable silence. Smiles all around. After dinner we played some family friendly Mario cart. If you consider friendly me bragging about my awesome skills and punching (playfully) Josh whenever he won. After that we would cuddle with our dogs, Lucy and Ella.

~~End of Flashback~~

I woke up crying. I remember that night so vividly. If only I would've known that would've been the last Family Friday I would have cherished it a lot more. I thought about the life I used to have. Before that tragic accident. I started crying harder and I could hardly see at this point. I saw it was 4:03 am. I didn't really think Harry would make sure I was asleep until he came barging in.

"Oh my gosh. Are you okay? What happened?" Harry said automatically coming to give me a hug. And I couldn't help thinking, would it really hurt if I got attached to these boys, and spilled every secret I kept hidden.

"I'm.im fine. It was just a nightmare," I lied. But in a way I guess you could call it a nightmare.

"Wanna talk about it," Harry comfortingly put his arm around my shoulder and sat in bed with me, "it'll make you feel better."

"No, not really," talking isn't my thing. Especially not about problems.

"You sure?" He asked. I nodded my head, knowing if I spoke my mind would betray me and end up spilling.

Mom, and Dad, and Josh were still lingering in my mind, and my two dogs. I couldn't help but let a few more tears slip, and before I knew it I was stuck snuggled in bed with Harry Styles, in a comforting way of course. I know most girls would die to do this for even a second, but me, I felt violated. I already felt like my secrets were out there, in the open. And all he did was hug me.
