*Liam's POV*

"Lets play a game." Makayla said looking at Matt with a smirk. He winked at her. Now I was scared. I signed rubbing my eyes and Makayla stood up and ran upstairs. "We'll be right back!" She yelled down to me with Matt following her up the stairs. I sat there for about five to ten minutes staring at pictures hanging on walls and resting in various places.

"Makayla no! You go fir- AHHHH!!! OW OW OW OW!." I heard Matt scream before I heard a loud bang and then historical laughter. I walked to see Matt lying on a mattress in tears from laughing so hard and Makayla at the top rolling on the ground.

"What just happened!?" I asked looking at the two.

"Mattress surfing!" Makayla yelled excitedly. 

"I think my elbow is bruised." Matt chimed in.

"Oh Boo-Who you big baby!" Makayla yelled at Matt causing me to laugh. He frowned.

"I'm going to get you back for that Mac!" He said sticking his tongue out at her.

"Bring the mattress up already!" She said getting up. Matt muttered something in audible to anyone else and walked up the stairs dragging the mattress with him. "Come on Leeyummmmm!!!!!" Makayla said sitting on the mattress at the top of the steps. I ran up and stood next to Matt.

"This is safe, right?" I asked receiving a laugh from the two of them.

"We've done this so much here. It only hurts a little." Matt said sending me a wink. 

"Matt push the mattress!" Makayla said getting Matt's attention.

"Okay! Calm yourself!" Matt said walking to the mattress and pushing it so it was leaning and it began to slide down the stairs. Makayla yelped in humor as she slid down the stairs. I smiled when she reached the bottom .

"This is so fun!" Makayla said beginning to drag the mattress up the stairs. "Liam's turn!" She said as she reached the top. I sat on the mattress and Matt pushed me. I laughed at the rush of it. It was like sledding down a hill in the snow accept it was bumpier and you weren't all bundled in jackets and stuff. I laughed harder as I reached the bottom of the stairs.

"That's awesome!" I yelled.

"There's more fun stuff to do inside Makayla said running down the steps and into the kitchen. Matt and I followed her and we saw she had pots and pans laying on the floor. She grabbed some stick that was broken off a wooden spoon and aimlessly banged on the pots. I laughed at her child-like antic. she finished off with banging faster and throwing the sticks down. I began clapping and laughing and she looked at me.

"Anything else I've missed out on?" I asked. She nodded and stood up running upstairs again. She ran back down with pillows, blankets, sheets, and other bed supplies. 

"Matt help! Get your stuff!" She said.

"Are we building a fort!? I haven't done that in ages!" I exclaimed. She smiled at me and giggled.

"Yes Liam we're building a fort. I had to make my bed again anyway." She said laughing. Matt came running down with more pillows and sheets throwing them into Makayla's pile. 

"Ready!?" He asked excitedly. We odder and began to work on the fort. By the time we finished making sure it would stand it was almost 11am. We crawled in and sat down inspecting the fort from the inside.

"I give it an A+!" Makayla said.

"Ditto!" Matt exclaimed.

"Yes." I agreed.

"I'm hungry." Matt said,

"Is there a Niall in you too! Gosh." I said surprised that he reminds me of the boys in different ways. He laughed and crawled out of the fort. I looked to Maykayla who was staring at me already. I smiled.

"Feel better?" She asked breaking the comfortable silence.

"100%! Thanks Mac." I said truthfully because I did feel better than before.

"Great. Hungry?" She asked.

"A little bit. You?" 

"Nah. Not really. C'mon though. We'll see what Matt's making." She said crawling towards the opening of the fort. 

"Ladies first." I smiled motioning to the exit.

"Why thank you fine sir." She said making her accent posh like. I laughed.

"It's my pleasure." I said back in the same tone. She laughed getting out standing up and helping me get up when I got out. 

"What are we having?" I said walking to the kitchen.

"Uhm… Makayla we have a few jugs of water don't we?" Matt asked.

"I'll go check." She said jogging to the mud room.

"So Liam how's life?" Matt asked sparking a conversation.

"Life's alright. My girlfriend just broke up with me so y'know." I said.

"Yeah I gotcha there. So you need advice from me you said?"

"Well Makayla laughed at me when I told her that." I said laughing at her disbelief when I said I'd get advice from him.

"Well what's the advice you need?" Matt asked.

"I just wanted to know if being a bit clingy is really bad?" I told him referring to how clingy I was to Dani. Matt thought for a minute.

"It really depends on the person I think. But I do understand why Makayla said I'd be bad at this… I haven't had a girlfriend since like… Graduation." He said smiling. Then I remembered who he dated. He was dating a girl called Amelia. She was really pretty, smart, and funny. I could see why they dated.

"Amelia right?" I asked to confirm my thoughts. Matt looked at me weirdly.

"Yes. How did you know that?" I laughed.

"Liam Payne knows all." I responded earning a chuckle from the lad. Then Makayla came back into the room with two big jugs of water setting them on the counter.

"Here." She said to Matt. When she had set them down I noticed she pulled away quickly and pulled her sleeves down.

"Cold?" I asked. She nodded and walked over sitting next to me at the counter.

"How are you cold? You're wearing baggy sweatpants and a hoodie!" Matt exclaimed. She shrugged. "Also why are you being so quiet all of a sudden. Are you alright?" Matt asked worriedly.

"I'm fine Matt. I think I'm just going to lay down and rest." She said walking to the living room taking her stuff from the fort and walking upstairs. That was weird. She was alright 5 minutes ago what could've happened.

"Ever since Mum and Dad died she's been like this. It's like she's always on her period. One minute she's all giggles and smiled and the next she's angry. What do you think's wrong? I've tied to understand but she just pushes me away." Matt said frowning.

"Do you want me to see if I can get something out of her?" I asked looking at Matt sympathetically.

"Please?" He begged. I nodded and made my way upstairs. I saw a door that was slightly ajar. I peeked in, it was defiantly a teenage girls room. Then I heard a muffled sound coming from the in suite bathroom. I went closer and heard it clearly. Crying. I knocked softly on the door.

"Makayla?" I said through the door.

*Makayla's POV*

"Makayla?" I heard a muffled voice after a small knock. Shit. Shit. Don't open the door Liam. Don't…

Too late.
