-Niall

I walked down the stairs in a sort of shock. I’ve never actually seen someone cut before; I’ve seen the scars but not the action of them with a razor to their arm. My feet carried me to the couch as my mind went to replay the scene again.  The only thing that really stuck in my mind was the way my heart ached at the sight of it all. 

Did I really fancy her? I’ve known here for less than a few days but I feel really protective over her and then when I called her beautiful something in my stomach changed it filled with butterflies and I felt all warm inside. And now I sound like a teenage girl. I groaned out loud, my face went into my hands as I tried to piece something together.

A hand clamped onto my shoulder and gave it a gentle squeeze. My head raised to see Liam with a grave expression on his face.

“Mate, you okay? You seem out of it of some sorts.”

“I honestly don’t know. Everything inside my head is all jumbled together and I can’t stop thinking of how broken she is.” I sighed and looked to Liam for some kind of help.

“Niall, no matter how much you try and deny us we know you fancy Natalie and it’s okay if you do. All of us have grown fond of her.” I smiled. For the first time I couldn’t deny it, I truly do like Natalie the only problem is I shouldn’t; that thought made my smile turn into a frown.

I can’t like her, like I said she’s broken and with my life style and the hate that’ll make it worse. I don’t think she can handle the hate. Sure she’s strong but our fans are mean and can come up with some pretty hurtful things.

“Liam I can’t bring her into this though. The fans and hate would be too much for her. I know that I like her but would I want to bring her into this crazy thing?” He face changed. He knew how the hate worked, especially with Danielle. She couldn’t handle it for a while that’s a main reason they broke up but now they’re back together.

Louis and Zayn seemed to appear from thin air or maybe they were there the whole time and I never noticed? Louis had a smile on his face while Zayn was just sitting beside us staring off into space.

“So you do fancy her?” Louis smirked. I rolled my eyes and pushed him off the couch. I laughed for the first time in a few hours. It felt really good to actually smile but a voice inside my head still nagged at me about what Natalie was doing. Jake hasn’t come down yet, we all know he wouldn’t let her cut again but we didn’t know if either of them were okay.

Not physically hurt but more mentally, as in if they were crying or doing well; they’re well-being.  Jake seemed to fit in with the boys and I quite well, he was kind of a mix of us all. Flirty like Haz, smart and adult-like like Liam is, he’s also shy and mysterious like Zayn, and boy can he be loud and we all know who that is. I wasn’t really for sure how he was like me unless he is actually vulnerable inside, like he lets stuff get to him but I highly doubt he is.

Louis slapping my cheek, hard if I might add, brought me back to reality. “What the hell do you want Lou?” He smiled a creepy ass smile and turned to Harry.

“You’re already day dreaming about her aren’t you Horan?” Harry teased. Him and Louis made little kissy noises that were seriously annoying. Only those two can make something so small into something, unnecessarily big.

“Will you two quit?” Liam asked them. He looked just as annoyed as I felt.

“Sorry Daddy.” They both murmured together.

“Now Niall I think that you need to figure out what’s going on with your heart? You either like her or you don’t. And when it comes to hate just don’t let her read it. She’s not into Facebook and Twitter so the only thing she would have to worry about is magazines.” Zayn replied for the first time.

We all looked at him because he basically just bluntly said everything that Liam was beating around the blush, trying to tell me.

“I like Natalie, but like I told Liam I can’t bring her into this life.”

“Damn right you’re not bringing her into this world. I just told her about our parents hating her and she wanted to basically kill herself. I know your fans, they will make her want to kill herself with just one word.” Jake was at the top of the stairs, his is had a lot of pain in them but you could also see the fury too.

“Jake, I couldn’t do that too her no matter if I start growing more feelings for her. She’s so fragile that I can’t be that selfish to bring her into this hate-filled life.” I put my head down as I spoke.

“It’s would really be selfish now because she does like you back and I think you leaving would make her worse.”  He had a point but she doesn’t like me back, does she?”

“You very vague there Niall everyone can see that she likes you. Your voice made her stop cutting back there and she felt bad about you all seeing her doing that.” He sighed, his blue eyes looked far off as he thought back to something that happened between the two of them.

“How is she?” Louis asked. He was sitting in between Liam and Harry.

“She’s asleep but I really need your all’s help.” He looked to each of us. Is body turned into a kind of ridged state as he spoke something I never thought he would!

“Take her with you.”
