Chapter 1:

"RAYNE! GET DOWN HERE NOW!" My father yells. I set down my guitar and run down the stairs. "Yes?" I stumble. "What do you think your doing! You were supposed to clean up around here!" He yells and points around the house. "Im sorry, I was-" I stop myself. He looks at me angrily. I can't say I was playing my guitar! He would freak! "I was umm..." I couldn't think of an excuse. "Napping?" I say more as a question. "Do you think im stupid!" He yells. "I heard you playing that stupid thing you call musical!" I flinch as he spits on me while he yells. "Im sorry... I-" "Thats it!" He storms up to my room and i keep asking him what he's gonna do. He walks straight into my room and picks up my guitar. "No! No! No! Please no! Thats all I have! Please!" I scream while trying to pry it out of his hands. "All you have! Of what!" I yells. "My father! The one that treated me nicely!" I yell back but regretted my words right after i said them. I burst into tears as I saw him throw my guitar onto the ground and jump on it. He grunted and left the room. I collapsed on my knees looking at my guitar. Thats it! I've had enough of this! Even though I have nowhere to go. Im running away.

I pull out a backpack from under my bed and grab my music notes and clothes. I walk to the bathroom silently and put my hair up. I grab the hairbrush and a few more ponytails and walk back to my room. "RAYNE! THE HOUSE ISN'T GONNA CLEAN ITSELF!" He yells. I gotta hurry up. I quickly grab a few more things and zip up my bag and carry it to my widow. "RAYNE!" He yells and I can hear him coming up the stairs. I sprint to my door and lock it. As i throw my bag out the window, he is trying to kick down the door. Thankfully my house isn't that tall so i jump out of my window and land on the ground safely. I hear my door break down and i start to sprint down the street.

I could here the faint yelling of my name. But I wasn't gonna go back. Ever. After a half and hour of running I stopped by a store. I jogged around the back and sat there. My eyes started to tear up and I pulled a book out from my bag. I flipped to the first page. I saw my dad, mom and I. That was for my aunts wedding. She passed away from cancer. My aunt was the best. She was always so cheerful and happy. It brightened up my day.

"You wait here and go in." A male british voice says. "Ok don't be too long!" An irish male voice says. I try to make out who they are, but there all in black with ski masks on. Burglars! I gasp and huddle as close to the wall as I can. 'Im too young to die! Im too young to die!' I repeat in my head. I watch one of them walk around the building and the irish one i suppose stay right there. He starts walking around sometimes getting closer to me. Luckily i was in a dark corner. All of a sudden my nose gets tingly, my head bobs back and i sneeze. Curse this dusty corner. The man turns in my direction and looks for what made the noise. "Hello?" He says. "Is anyone there?" I inch my way closer to the corner every time he speaks. "I'm not gonna hurt you please come out!" I debated wither or not to go out. He walked a bit closer as i hid my head in my hands. "Hello..." He whispers. I move my head up to see him and he bends down. "Whats your name?" He asks. I don't answer him knowing somethings gonna happen. "My name is Niall." He stands up and reaches for my hand. I debate for a minute then grab his hand. He pulls me up and leads me out of the corner. "H-hi..." I mumble. "My name is Rayne..." He stares at me with a small grin on his face. I squeeze my eyes shut thinking he would do something. "What are you doing?" Niall asks. "I umm- thought you were gonna hurt me." I says while opening my eyes a bit. "Why would I do that!" I sigh in relief. He won't hurt me. I hear footsteps and I turn around to see the other guy with a bag. "Run mate! There after us!" He yells and he runs to the car. I hear niall curse under his breath as he reaches for my hand. I flinch away. "Please just come with us! We can bring you back tomorrow! Please!" He begs, i can hear tons of footsteps and yelling which brings back bad memories i don't want to face again. Should I trust this Niall guy. Will I be able to outrun the people. I make my final decision, i have nowhere to go. I nod and follow Niall quickly to the car and he drives away.

"So who's the girl?" The british one says. I try to make out his features as we pass the street lights. Black hair shaped into a quiff. Brown eyes and I noticed some tattoos. "I'm rayne." I murmur. "I found her all alone." Niall says and I nod slowly. "Oh hi... I'm Zayn. Nice to meet you." He says taking his eyes of the road and looking in the mirror to see me.

I feel horrible right now. Like a burden. I hate when people have sympathy for me. It makes me feel weak, and after living with my dad... I can't afford to be a weakling.

After 5 minutes of driving I break the awkward silence. "Why were you guys dressed in all black with ski masks on?" i ask. "Ohhhh well we couldn't be seen. So we disguise ourselves so we don't get chased down." Niall says. "But you were chased down." "Yea I know..." "Are you guys burglars!" i gasp. "No no no no no!" zayn reassures me. That was the end of the conversation, considering nobody was gonna continue talking. We arrive in the driveway of a large flat. I open the door of the car and start to walk down the driveway to the street.

"Where are you going?" I hear a familiar irish voice. "I was going to go back to the store." I say. "Why would you go there?" He asks looking confused. "Well it seems pretty safe there." "Safe for what?" "To sleep. I can't afford a hotel." I mumble the last part. "Why in the world would you sleep outside a store? You can stay the night here. If you want." He says. "Oh it's ok. I don't wanna be a burden." I mumble. " uhhh come on! I insist!" "Fine but only for one night!" I point a finger at him while i walk towards the door.

As he opens the door I squint at the light. We both walk in, he walks to the kitchen while i just awkwardly stand there. A muscular guy with a buzz cut walks by into the kitchen but walks back and looks at me. I awkwardly wave and smile. "Umm hi?" He says. "Hi." I reply. "Just a sec... Niall, Zayn!" He yells and smiles back at me. Zayn runs down the stairs while Niall comes from the kitchen with a sandwich in his hand. "Oh yea this is rayne." Niall attempts to say because he is chewing. "Are you staying here?" He asks. "Yea but just for the night... If thats ok with because I can find somewhere else." I reach for the doorknob.

"No no by all means, stay as long as you like!" I he says happily. I let go and smile. "Here i'll show your room." And i follow him upstairs. "Room? The couch is fine with me!" I chuckle. "No you'd be much more comfortable on a bed!" He laughs. I shrug my shoulders as we walk into my room. I let out a gasp, "this room is beautiful!" "Boys!" He yells. "I suppose you know all of us!" "Um no..." "Oh well i'll introduce you." "Ok!"

I watch four boys enter the room. Two are niall and zayn which I already know. The other two are different. One with dark brown curly hair, beautiful green eyes and dimples. He was wearing a white v- neck, black skinny jeans and converse. The other one was tall with messy light brown hair, and crystal blue eyes. He was wearing a blue and red striped shirt, dark blue suspenders and red flats.

"Hi" the curly headed boy cheekily said. "HIIIIIIIII!" The other one screamed loudly. I flinched at the sound of his voice. "That is louis and you might want to get used to that." Zayn said. Louis nodded. "And thats harry." Niall pointed at harry. "And i'm liam." Liam says. "It's nice to meet you all. I'm rayne. And liam how did you expect me to know your names?" I ask. "Well considering we are one direction." He says. "Whats one direction?" I ask. Everyone shuffles around the room. "Er well its a famous boy band and we are in it." He states happily. "Ohhhh i didn't get t.v at my old house. I had no Idea what was happening out in the world." I say feeling embarrassed. "That would explain it..." Louis says. "Well i'm off to bed." Liam says as he yawns and all the boys agree. "Yea I guess i will too." I agree. "Thank you, so much! You have no idea how much this means to me." I thank them, as they start to leave the room. "No problemo!" Niall says as he shuts the door.

Wow. I can't believe i ran away, and all in the same day in a beautiful house with 5 guys! A feel of joy washed over inside of me but was quickly washed away. I'm only staying one night. If I stayed, i could ruin there lives, for all i know! They would have an extra one to care for. They already have 5.

I drop my bag on the floor and hop into bed. I don't bother changing because i'm still not comfortable, with the boys. There strangers to me. It's not my fault I have trust issues! I lived with that excuse for a human being.

My eyes start to close as I dose off. So far I think i'm doing pretty good with this running away stuff.
