SAVE ME
~Nicola’s POV~
“Nicola! Get dressed sweetheart! There are people here to see the kids.” Miss Delilah said to me as she entered my small room at this old orphanage. I hopped off my bed with my woody from Toy story and slowly made my way down the old rusty stairs that I’ve seen just about a million times. Once I reached the bottom, i kept my head low and made my way to an empty chair across the room. I’ve been here for about one and a half years now, and never had the luck of anyone even being even the least interested in me, so I have given up completely and always avoid guests. My thoughts were cut off when a person came up to where I was sitting and crouched down to my level. I lifted my head to see a tall, strong boy with lots of brown curly hair like mine. He reminded me of daddy…
“Hello love! I’m Harry, what’s your name?”
“I-i-I’m Nicola...” I managed to get out. I must have looked frightened…
“Don’t be scared Nicola. I won’t hurt you! How old are you?”
“I is three...” Well, it came out more as ‘thwee’
Harry chuckled just like daddy did before he hurt me. This scared me and I let a small tear slip out.
“Are you okay love? I didn’t mean to make you cry! Here listen, I will bring the lads over here to meet you and maybe you will feel better. They are super funny! You will love them!” Harry smiled at me as I nodded my head.
~Harry’s POV~
Management were making us adopt a child to teach us responsibility. Me and the band were on our way to the Hugs’N’Kisses orphanage now and we were all super exited to get a child.
“Girl or boy? What age?” Liam asked us as we pulled up.
“Well I guess we will know the child when we see them.” Zayn replied.
We all agreed and stepped into the orphanage to be surrounded by kids desperate to get adopted.
“Where is she….?” Miss Delilah, the lady we were on the phone with earlier muttered to herself. She rushed upstairs and returned a minute later with a little girl, who looks to be around 2-3, trailing behind her. She had curly brown hair like mine, and beautiful light blue eyes like Niall’s. She wore a blue and white striped shirt, a red skirt and was holding a toy woody from Toy story. Like Liam and Louis! She would fit in with us perfectly! She had her head down and quietly walked to an empty seat away from the rest. I made my way across the crowded room and crouched down to her level.
“Hello love! I’m Harry, what’s your name?” I tried to sound calm as she looked quite scared.
“I-i-I’m Nicola…” she looked up at me. Her light eyes now a darker shade of blue.
“Don’t be scared Nicola. I won’t hurt you! How old are you?” I tried to sound as calm as I possibly could with screaming kids everywhere.
“I is thwee...” She looked to innocent! I chuckled at her cute grammar. A tear rolled down her cheek and I tried to calm her down.
“Are you okay love? I didn’t mean to make you cry! Here listen, I will bring the lads over here to meet you and maybe you will feel better. They are super funny! You will love them!” I smiled at her when she nodded her head and her eyes went back to their previous shade of light blue. I went to go get the boys to show them who I found.
“LOUIS! ZAYN! LIAM! NIALL! C’MERE!” I tried to scream over all the kids talking. They all made their way over and I explained to them how she would fit in good! My hair, Niall’s eyes, Louis style, Liam’s love for Toy Story, and Zayn’s shyness. We all made our way to where Nicola was sitting, playing with her toy Woody.
I Introduced them to Nicola.
“Boys, this is Nicola! Nicola, this is Zayn, Niall, Louis and Liam!” I say pointing to each one. Nicola giggled cutely as she said
“ZiZi, NiNi, LouLou, and LiLi!
The boys and I talked to Nicola for a bit before we excused ourselves to talk about who we would like to adopt.
“Nicola’s perfect!” We all replied at the same time once all the kids made their way back upstairs. We all laughed and went to search for Miss Delilah.
We found her in her office, just getting off a call.
“Hello there! Found anybody yet?” She asked sweetly
“In fact, we were thinking about Nicola…?” Liam replied
“Oh.. Well um I will warn you now, she has had a bad past and we still don’t know anything more of her past than her mother left her and her father when she was born. Her mother was only 17 and couldn’t handle a baby. That’s when Nicolas father started the abuse. Mentally, physically, and we think sexually. She is always having bad dreams and flashbacks… If you are willing to handle all that and work with her to get over her past and move on, then she would be an amazing girl for you. She just needs patience and love. She is currently 3 years old, Her name is Nicola Mai Grace, she was named after her mother Mai, she was born here in Miami, Florida and she has been here at the Hugs’N’Kisses orphanage for about a year and a half now.”
All us boys nodded our heads silently.
“I’m willing to help her.” I said confidently. I needed to help Nicola and it’s one thing I promise myself I will do. No matter how impossible it may seem.
“Me too.” Niall added.
“Yeah, same.” The rest of the boys said. Miss Delilah looked so happy that Nicola finally got to go to a family who loved her.
“Great! You can just sign h-“
Liam’s phone started to ring, cutting off Miss Delilah.
“It’s Simon!” We all froze. Our interview! Crap!
“Boys we got to go!” Liam rushed out of the office and we all followed, including Miss Delilah.
Zayn froze. “Wait! Boys, we didn’t sign the papers yet…” I sighed, clearly frustrated.
“Look I will stay here and sign the papers. You guys go to the interview and say that I’m sick!” I told them. They all nodded and rushed out as I happily signed the adoption papers. I’m so glad Nicola will have my name! Nicola Mai Styles. I like it!
