(Maggie's POV)

I woke up in soft blankets, tons of them. I struggled to get up but finally sat up. I noticed I was in the living room on the couch, what time is it? It looked dark out so I'm guessing it's late.

"Uh-Louis?" I asked

Then I heard footsteps and saw Louis walking in.

"Hey Maggie, how are you feeling?" Louis asked, smiling sweetly

Well I actually felt pretty crappy, I mean I felt like I could throw up at anytime and my throat was sore and dry. Not to mention I was freezing.

"My throat hurts and I'm really nauseous." I explained

"Oh, and I'm really cold." I added

Louis felt my forehead then looked shocked.

"What's wrong?!" I asked

"Nothing your just a little bit-uh hot that's all." Louis said

He got up then came back a couple minutes later with a thermometer.

"Here, put this under your tongue until it beeps okay?" Louis replied

"Okay." I answered

I put it under my tongue then a couple seconds later it belled and Louis took it out.

His eyes nearly popped out of his head.

"Lou, is everything okay?" I asked worriedly

"Yeah-uh lads can you come here?!" Louis asked

All of the lads came in a bit confused.

"What's wrong?" Liam asked

"Well she has a fever." Louis explained

"What?!" I asked

"It's okay Maggie, you'll be fine."Harry said

"Maybe she needs to eat, when I don't feel good I eat." Niall explained

Only Niall would say such a thing at this time.

And then I remembered seeing Louis, Harry, Liam and Niall all on TV!

"Louis, I saw you on TV." I changed the subject

"You did?" Louis asked

"Yeah."

"Then you most be more feverish than we thought!" Louis said

"Lou I could've sworn I saw you." I explained

"Why don't you crawl in bed and get some sleep?" Louis suggested, changing the subject.

"I guess." I shrugged

Louis helped me get up and we walked into his room and I sat on his bed then crawled in.

"Louis?" I asked

"Yea?"

"Well, it's just, I though you would hurt me when I woke up." I explained

Louis looked shocked.

"Love we aren't going to ever hurt you" Louis said

"Louis believe me I do want to trust you sometimes it's just, people have acted the same why you do and then they-they beat me and abused me physical and sexually. I'd rather die then go through any of that again, it was just horrible." I explained with a couple tears. Ow, throat hurts, crap.

Louis looked so sad, and guilty and pitiful.

"I ju-just want to be able to trust someone again, an-and live a normal life. I don't want to flinch every time someone touches me, and I don't want to be scared of every little thing." I choked out
