"Come on Arabella, we told them we would go and we have to now." Niall said trying to pull me into the SUV. "No, Niall. I don't want to see her again. I hate her!" I shouted.

Niall rolled his eyes and threw my hand down. "Just get in the fucking car." He demanded. I shook my head and started to walk back to the house.

"Arabella!" Niall yelled. I turned back and glared at him.

Niall kept trying to get me to go to dinner with our families. I really didn't want to go. I hate my family. Actually I don't want to see my mum. She doesn't even seem to care about what I want.

"Just get in the car. Please?" Niall asked. I sighed looking at his adorable pleading smile. Why does he have to be so fit?

"Fine. But if she says one thing to me I'm not talking to her, so don't expect me to." I said angrily through gritted teeth. Niall smiled and nodded his head.

"Okay. But it's going to be awkward the whole time." He sighed as I walked over to the SUV and got in.
We started driving to my parents house..

"I still can't believe you're making me do this." I muttered to him. "You agreed to go, so don't blame it on me." Niall said annoyedly. I rolled my eyes.

It's true, I did agree to go to dinner with our families. Unfortunately. I'll probably end up fighting with my mum. And then ill go home talking about how I never want to look at her face again.

But would you want to see your mum after she made you get married?

Probably not.

We pulled up to the mansion and walked in. I saw my parents, sister and her husband sitting on one couch laughing.

Niall's parents, brother and his brothers wife, with their son in their arms. Niall's nephew is so cute! Aw.

"Theo!" Niall shouted walking over to his nephew and picking him up and snuggling him. The baby smiled. Niall's really good with kids.

He'll be a great father. Why am I thinking about this!

"Arabella!" My sister shouted running over to me and giving me a hug. I smiled and hugged her back. "Did you really have to call me that? What happened to Ari?" I asked.

"Uh...oh I don't know." She said. I giggled and shook my head.

"Dad." I said as he hugged me. I have no problem with my dad. I'm still angry that he's letting my mum do this but I still love him. I kind of have to...he's my dad.

I looked down at my mother and gritted my teeth angrily. "Mother." I mumbled. "Don't say it like that. I feel like something mean is supposed to come after that." She frowned.

"That's exactly why I said it like that" I said under my breath. Amanda heard and started giggling. "Hey, Arabella." Her husband Will said and hugged me. He's American.

"Hey." I said smiling. I turned and hugged Niall's mum and dad. "Bella, this is my brother Greg, his wife and my nephew Theo." Niall said. I hugged them and waved to the baby.

We all walked into the dining room and started eating dinner. "Then they threw him into the pool." Amanda laughed.

"Yes, why do I not remember allowing you to do this?" My mum asked. "Because I didn't ask." She retorted. Dad high fived Amanda and my mum rolled her eyes.

"So you made will sleep on an air mattress and put it out in the lake?" Niall asked. I nodded my head and he chuckled.

"I almost drowned." Will said fakly pouting."no, you would wake up if your body touched the water. Duh." I said.

"I can't believe you almost drowned your husband." My mum said to my sister in shock.

"Oh please, mum. We all know you aren't the person to ask if we want to do something fun." I said rolling my eyes.

"Arabella May! Why do you hate me so much?" My mum asked loudly making me jump in my seat.

"Because, I do." I said quietly putting food in my mouth. Niall stiffened in his chair and the table went quiet.

"So Will, how's the company?" I asked my brother in law.

"Kitchen. Now." My mum spoke. I got out of the chair and excused myself.

When I got in the kitchen my mum was crying. She's crying? I should be crying!

"I gave you everything you ever wanted. Why do you hate me so much?" She asked. "You gave me everything I ever wanted. Nothing I ever needed." I frowned.

"What do you need then?!" She shouted. "For you to be a parent! For you to show some kind of affection." I said sadly.

"I show you affection! Maybe if you stop being a bitch you would notice!" She yelled. I'm pretty sure they could hear in the dining room.

"I'm so done with you!" I shouted as I started walking away.

"You push everyone away. You know you do." She muttered.

I walked out of the kitchen and tears started to rush down my face. I looked at everyone and they're faces seemed shocked, and sad.

"Have a nice night everyone. Merry Christmas." I said as I walked out of the house. I heard footsteps chasing me and I walked to Niall's SUV.

"Arabella." Niall said quietly and true d to hug me. I pushed him away and got in the car as he unlocked it.

Maybe she was right. I do push people away.




We arrived home and I went up to my room and took a shower. I got dressed in pajama pants that had Reindeer and a tank top.

Niall walked in and sat down next to me on the edge of the bed. "Did you hear?" I asked. Niall nodded his head. "I'm sorry." I said.

"Don't do that. Don't apologize. I can't believe she said that to you. You didn't deserve that. While you can be bitchy, you aren't a bitch." He said rubbing circles on my back.

"Well I'm actually not surprised. She's shown that she never cared for me as a child." I explained.

"Do you know what it's like for someone that's supposed to love you not care?" I asked him.

Niall shook his head and frowned.

"I care, your dad cares, Amanda cares, Will cares, the boys care, the girls care, even my family cares. That's so many people that care about you." He whispered.

"But one of the people that raised me don't." I argued.

Niall shrugged his shoulders and let out a sigh.

"Maybe not, but there are others that care about you. And she missed out on a great person." Niall said and kissed my forehead.
