Nialls Princess : A One Direction Adoption Fanfic

Chapter 21

Chapter 21 

Valerie Noelle's POV

I was in my closet trying to decide what to wear. I settled on some high waisted denim shorts with a white lace bustier. It seemed like it showed a lot of skin, and I didn't want to upset the boys, so I grabbed an oversized brown cardigan. I paired the entire outfit with Oxford slip on flats. 

I carefully laid out my clothes on my desk chair and walked over to make my bed. The boys had already cleaned up the other mattresses but they didn't make my bed. Oh well. After finishing that I walked into my bathroom to wash my face and brush my teeth. 

While combing out my hair I noticed that my lip had a pale pink scar, and the bruises on my face had completely vanished. I smiled to myself thinking that the girls wouldn't see how fucked up I was before. 

After I finished brushing my teeth I quickly got dressed and I walked over to my dressing table and took out some make up.

I usually don't wear make up, but since today I want to make a good impression I decided to wear some. When Louis took me shopping he told me I could get some make up if I wanted to, even though he said I didn't really need it. I applied some foundation and a little bit of blush, since I seemed a little too pale. Then I applied some mascara with a light line of eyeliner. I put on some soft pink lip gloss and I was done. 

If I had seen myself from a different persons point of view, you would've thought that nothing has ever happened to me. I seemed like a normal teenage girl. I put some perfume on and walked downstairs. No one was down there so I decided to watch some TV. Half an hour later I heard someone come down the stairs. 

Niall came into view turning the corner into the living room. He was wearing a plain white t shirt and regular skinny jeans. He had his hair down and it seemed a little damp. I was guessing he had barely come out of the shower. I didn't notice that we were both staring at each other. 

"Valerie you look gorgeous today, but you better be keeping that sweater on the entire day." he warned. I rolled my eyes but I ended up laughing. "Yeah ok. Where are the other boys?" I asked changing the subject. 

"Oh well I guess they're getting dressed.  Louis just went in to take a shower." he said taking a seat next to me. I had no idea what we were watching, it was some show with some people living in a house in New Jersey. The more I watched it the more it seemed familiar. Then I remembered watching it at my cousins house back in New Mexico. 

I started to remember my cousin. She had moved to LA to go to college, but I lost contact with her. I missed her a lot, she was the one I could turn to when I had troubles at home.  I sighed remembering how much she kept disappearing from my life.

"What's wrong princess?" Niall asked in worry. I had forgotten he was there sitting next to me. "Oh it's nothing... I was just remembering how much I miss my cousin. " I told him. 

"Oh I know how you feel. I miss my brother everyday. Well we can all tell you how much we miss our families, but we make up for it here because we're a family now. And our family didn't feel complete until you came along. It's like we were missing a puzzle piece, and it wouldn't be complete without you here." Niall said.  

"Aww Niall, that's so sweet. I may of been your missing puzzle piece but I was looking for the entire puzzle and I found the 5 of you. And I couldn't be happier it was you." I said. 

"Valerie you're just too cute. Im serious, it's like why would anyone bully you? You're a complete doll and- I don't know..." Niall said wandering off the thought.

"Well... I think its because of how I dress... or how my music tastes are different than todays average teenager. They thought I worshipped Satan and stuff like that. I didn't really care about that because I would threaten people if they wouldn't leave me alone, I would summon the dark master to haunt them or do something scary..." I said darkly.
