Forbidden Love

Chapter 7

“Well by the looks of it she fractured her skull just a bit right here, but you might want to get it checked by a doctor. There will be a large bruise there in the morning. Now would any of you care to tell me what happened?” Mrs. Tomlinson asked  facing us. I looked at Liam who looked at Niall who looked at me. I had to think of and excuse

“I…. I umm… I fell down the stairs in my flat. You see Niall and Liam and I were hanging out and I had to get something from my room to show them so I ran up, got my sketch book, ran back down, and tripped on my way down. Yup true story.” I put on my yup it happened face to complete the lie.

“So instead of calling an ambulance, you decided to play doctor and then come to see me?” She narrowed her eyes at Liam and Niall.

“Oh Niall, Mia I can’t do it! I give up!” Liam said pretending to die on the floor.

“We decided to save someone else’s life and save the ambulance gas money. Yup.” Niall said trying to cover up the actual reason. I mental face palmed myself. Way to go Nialler, way to go.

“Okay, so if I call Louis over here to get the truth out of you, you would say the same exact thing?” She keep pushing for the truth and I wanted to tell her, but I can’t. Well I can and make her swear to secrecy. Hmm.

“Okay Mrs. Tomlinson, you’re a nice lady so I’ll tell you the truth. You have to promise that you won’t call authorizes or tell anyone. Promise?”

“Promise. So how did you really get that gash on your head?”

“Well you see my father and brother both abuse me and I didn’t know he was calling me, because when I draw I don’t pay attention. Anyway, he came into my room, yelled and cussed at me, I screamed for help, and he hit me with the art box Niall got me for my birthday. Liam, who lives next door, heard me and called Niall. My dad had left for Bradford by the time they got to me. And he mutter ‘I wish I had let you mother aborted you’ under his breath on his way out. And I’m the only one who gets abused in my household.” I wait for her to reregister what I just said into her mind before a look of sadness overcomes her stern one.

“Oh my. I’m sorry I wish I could help anything you need I’ll help you with. Okay love?”

“It’s okay. I have a job, amazing friends, a place to escape to, and a wonderful boyfriend. I may not come from the best family, but this will do."

“Louis. Shut. The. Bloody. Hell. Up. We get it you are the king of Fifa. I will fucking kick you in your balls if you don’t shut the hell up. I’m not kidding.” I treated him from my spot on the couch. Louis quickly shut up and got off the table and sat on the floor. I honestly don’t know. Niall chuckled which caused me to turn my head towards him.

“What?” I asked quirking up eyebrow at him.

“Your accent is funny.” He said smiling.

“Oh well thanks for making me feel more like an awkward penguin.” I pouted. Niall came closer. I saw Harry in the cornor of my eye glaring at us. The fuck is his problem?

“No, no I like awkward penguins. I like you.” Niall whispered the last part in my ear.

“I like you too Ni-Ni.” I whispered back.

“Oh my God! Get together already! You act like a couple, just bloody be one.” Louis shouted at Niall and I. Liam hit Louis on the back of the head for interrupting Niall and my moment.

"Oh you have no idea Louis. No idea." I thought to myself.

“I have no idea what?” Louis asked sitting up from his position on the floor.
