Audrey's P.O.V:
I ran to the first place I thought of, the garden. Shaking with tears, I sat huddled on a bench under a bushwillow tree.
"Are you ok?" someone asked. I sat up with a jolt, that accent was definitely not African...it sounded almost...Irish.
Irish! I slowly turned around. There, standing behind me was the one and only Niall Horan. "N-Niall?" I whispered. He chuckled to himself.
"Yes, that's me," he replied in his adorable Irish accent. I did my best to smile then realized that I must look like a wreck. I started crying again.
He sat down beside me and hugged me. "What's the matter love?" he asked.
"The b-baby who just passed away, he-he was special. His name was Ajali, which means destiny, or...or chance. We named him that because...because we knew he only had a small chance since he was so premature, and...and it's just not fair! I spent nights bottle feeding Ajali, he was special, I prayed so hard for him to survive, but. . .but . . ." I broke down again. Niall held me close to him as I cried into his shoulder. After what seemed like hours I sat up straight and wiped my eyes with my sleeve. "I'm so sorry Niall."
"Why! You have nothing to be sorry about, I understand how sad you must be." He smiled over at me.
"Thanks" I said, smiling back. " Well, we'd better get back to Pearl and the rest of the boys before she gives them a tour without us." I said.
"Alright then!" Niall said, grabbing my arm and running up the stairs and out of the garden with me.
~That Night~
"Ugh but this one is soooooo adorable!" Pearl complained, holding a poster of Liam in my face. We were taking down ALL of our one direction posters (which was not easy since we has so many of them).
"C'mon Pearl, you can look at the REAL Liam all day tomorrow! Do you really want them to see THIS?" I asked.
"Well I guess not," she agreed, smiling.
When we finished we got into our beds and turned off the lamp. All I could think about was Niall and how he was so kind, his smile, his accent, and how he seemed to really care about Ajali. . .Ajali, I'm going to miss singing him to sleep when he woke up crying. I burst into tears again, and cried myself to sleep.
