"Louis, we're hoomee!" chimed a voice that I recognised as Harry's. What? I'm a Directioner, I know what they sound like. "Ugh, fuck, Harry!" I groaned. The clock read 11 AM. 'I've been sleeping for two hours?!' I thought, completely unaware that I even had fallen asleep. I got up out of my bed and opened the door into the silent, empty hallways. There were three other doors in the same hallways as my room, and I walked to the door directly to my left and opened it. Inside was my very large bathroom. [weheartit] "Louis!!!" I screamed. I heard five pairs of feet running up the stairs in my direction. "What is it Es? Is everything okay?" Louis asked, panicked. "What the hell is this supposed to be? This room is half of this side of the house! You call this a bathroom? I call this a one bedroom apartment!" I exclaimed. All of the boys just looked at me funny then laughed. "Okay, Es, your living with a very popular boy band. You're going to have to get used to this life of luxury if you want to be a singer. It's our management that makes us live like this," Louis said. "But-" I said before Louis cut me off. "No, ifs, ands, or buts, Esme. This is how its going to be. We have to listen to our management. They want us to live like this," Louis said and he held his hands out, gesturing to everything surrounding us, "so we will." 

"Okay," I replied timidly. "Well, I guess since we're all here, we might as well have introductions. I'm Liam, but the boys call me 'Daddy Direction'," he said rolling his eyes. "Nice to meet you Liam!" I chirped happily. Next the curly haired boy introduced himself. "Hello gorgeous, I'm Harry," He said while kissing my hand. "Uh, hi..Harry. Want my number?" I replied. "Sure," he said grinning. "Okay, its 1-800- Never going to happen," I said with a smirk. "You and I are going to be good friends," Harry said with a grin. "Yes we will be," I replied smiling. Next was the boy with the black hair. "Hello, I'm Zayn. I predict that you and I will get along just fine," he said with a warm smile. "Hi Zayn! I do believe that we will," I said in a sing-song voice, returning the smile. And lastly, the blonde one. "H-hi, I'm N-Niall," he stuttered while blushing. 'He's really cute!!' I thought to myself. "Hi Niall, I know for a fact that you and I will be great friends," I said blushing. Wait, Blushing?! Esme Belle Walker is blushing because of a boy she just met ten seconds ago. I looked into his eyes and I immediately got lost in them. Zayn, Liam, Harry, and Louis looked at me and Niall grinning. Louis seemed to have a hint of concern in his expression though..."What?" I said looking at them. "Nothing!" they all replied in unison. Louis shot me his look that means "We need to talk". I nodded my head at him signalling that I understood. "Hey boys, I can make you all lunch if you haven't eaten anything yet," I said smiling. "Yes! Food!!!" Niall screamed and darted down the staircase toward the kitchen. Everyone laughed at him and walked towards the stairs except for Louis and I. Zayn, Liam, and Harry all looked at us funny. "You boys go on down, I'll be down in a bit to make you your food. Louis and I need to talk for a little, go on ahead." I said with a smile. They nodded and walked off and Louis dragged me into my room. "Listen, it's obvious that you have a little crush on Niall at this point, and I know what you do when you start to develop a crush. You ignore the feelings and find reasons to hate the person. Please don't do that this time. I want you to trust yourself in love again, because I promise that Niall would never hurt you on purpose because he doesn't want to get hurt himself. Niall has been looking for his princess for a long time, and I think that eventually you might be the girl that he can call his princess. You guys are a lot alike and I know that if you were his girlfriend that he would treat you like gold," Louis said honestly. I bit my lip knowing that he was right. "You're right Lou. I'm just scared. But I'll trust myself to love again because I know that I can trust the boys," I said with a smile. "Good girl. Now they're probably wondering where you are right now, so lets go back." Louis said, walking out of my bedroom. I followed closely behind him and we entered the kitchen. "You're not cheating on Eleanor, are you Lou?" Harry said with a fake hurt expression. Anger grew inside me after he said that and I raised my hand to slap him, but before I could do anything Louis had grabbed me and was trying to calm me down. "Es, it's okay. It's okay Es. He doesn't know what that bastard did to you, he doesn't know. None of them do," Louis cooed while rubbing my back. I was about to slap Harry so hard that he'd be able to reach all of the high notes. I started to cry and thought, 'Oh great. My first day here and I'm already crying my eyes out in front of all of them.' Harry just looked at me with wide eyes, as did the others. Niall ran into the bathroom to grab a box of tissues and he ran back and set them on the floor next to where I had planted myself. Louis and Liam were trying to get me to get off of the floor but I wouldn't budge. Zayn then walked over and picked me up off of the ground and set me in a chair at the table. "Louis, I want to tell them about it," I said as he sat next to me. "Are you sure? You don't have to tell them anything that you dont want to," Louis said with a sad smile. "No, I'm sure. They would find out eventually, and sooner seems better than later. They deserve to know." I replied looking at him. "Okay, love. Okay." Louis said. I looked at the boys and they looked back at me with open ears. "My ex boyfriend raped me repeatedly and cheated on me more times than I can count," I said as I started to sob. All of the boys gasped except for Louis, who was holding me in his lap. "You didn't deserve that. No girl deserves that. If I ever see this ex boyfriend of yours I will hurt him. I will," Niall said with an angry expression and all of the boys nodded in agreement. Louis picked me up and carried me to my room. The others followed close behind. Louis opened my door and sat me down on my bed. "I'm staying in here with you tonight, Es." Louis commented. "Okay," I replied with a weak smile. Niall sat down next to me and all of the boys walked out, leaving us to talk alone. "Is that all he did to you?" Niall asked with concern. "No, he abused me in every way possible. He would beat me over and over again if I didn't please him and he would call me nasty names." I whimpered trying to hold back a sob, which didn't work out well. Niall pulled me into him and wrapped his arms around me hesitantly. I laid my head on his shoulder and cried. "Esme, you didn't deserve that. You didn't. And it's not your fault; he's a foul monster that decided that girls are disposable, but you aren't toys. Esme, I have no doubt in my mind that you will find a guy one day that will treat you the way you deserve to be treated, and the way that you deserve to be treated is like gold. Every girl deserves her happy ending. He will treat you like the gorgeous girl you are and you'll be happy and in love." Niall said, looking at me with a smile. "Niall, you don't know how much that means to me. You really don't," I said. "How much does it mean to you? I would expect a beautiful girl like yourself to get compliments all of the time." he replied. "I'm not beautiful..." I said looking down. "Yes you are! You are the most gorgeous girl I've ever seen in my entire life, Esme. Don't you dare say that you aren't beautiful, because you definitely are." He said honestly. "You think so?" I asked with tears streaming down my face. "I know so." Niall stated looking at me with a smile. "Esme, tomorrow you and I are going to go hang out somewhere, like a date? Does that sound good?" Niall asked. "Sounds great!" I replied happily. He smiled at me and said, "Well, Louis probably wants to talk to you now, so..." 

"Okay, bye Niall. I'll see you later when Louis lets me leave." I replied with a smile and then kissed him on the cheek. He put his hand on his cheek and blushed. I smiled and blushed as well and he got up and waved at me walking over to the door. When he opened the door Harry, Louis, and Zayn all came tumbling in while Liam stood in the middle of the hallway telling them "not to listen to a private conversation". When they finally stood up and got composed Louis said to Liam with an annoyed expression, "It doesn't matter, we couldn't hear them through the door anyway." Zayn, Liam, Louis, and Harry looked at us with smirks on their faces ans Niall and I turned beet red. They all looked at us with suspicious looks and Liam and Zayn hauled Niall off to Liam's room to do something and Harry and Louis barged into my room. "What happened between you two just then?" Louis asked curiously. "Niall told me that I deserve a guy who will treat me like the gorgeous girl I am." I blushed. Louis and Harry both smiled at me and they said in unison, "What else?" "He asked me on a date tomorrow!" I squealed quietly. They both smiled and Harry said, "Yay! I'm so happy." 

"Louis, I need some girl help with this..." I said looking at him and trailing off. "I'm on it." He said with a wink, understanding the fact that he should call Danielle and Eleanor and tell them to come meet me.
