Bay-

I woke up to birds chirping outside my window.

I groaned and got up.

I was wearing my gray sweats and one of Liam's shirts.

I brushed my teeth then my hair and washed my face.

I put my hair in a high ponytail and went downstairs.

"Morning El, Morning Dani." I greeted.

"Morning." They said in unison.

"Get dressed its almost Dance practice." El said washing the dished.

I nodded and raced with Roxy to my room.

I put on my Mc Hammer sweats with a white sleeveless crop top with the words 'What's gucci' on it in black.

I slid on my leopard printed vans and put my hair in a high ponytail.

I took my black studded backpack with my dance stuff in it and stormed downstairs.

"Here let me give you a ride." El said.

"Oh no it's okay Auntie El. I could take my motorcycle there." I said giving them cheeky grins.

I grabbed a bright red apple and ate it then drove to dance class wondering where the boys were this morning.

Zayn-

"She's going to love this." Harry said putting our gift into the cart.

Yes! Christmas is coming up and the boys and I are super excited.

So we each bought Bay something

Harry : A flat screen TV for her room.

Niall : An Xbox for her TV

Louis : a mini iPad.

Liam : A pastel blue penny board and a pastel pink one.

Me : A guitar autographed by every celebrity she mentioned to me about, and I'm taking her out for her drivers license.

We bought the stuff and scurried to the studio.

"Hello Simon." We greeted him.

"Hello. Where's Bay?" He asked.

"She's still at dance practice i think she's on her way here." I said.

Bay-

After practice was done i drove home and took a shower.

I came out of the shower smelling like coconuts and strawberries then I put on a beige knit sweater with denim high waisted shorts and a gray beanie since it was chilly outside.

I put on my white high top converse and did my makeup and drove to the studio.

"Hey guys." I said hugging all of them.

"So should we get started?" I asked.

"Yes, step into the booth there." Simon said.

I went inside and sat on the stool with the microphone in place and my headphones on.

"Sing any song you'd like." He said.

I thought of a song and started singing and playing the piano.

"Four years old with my back to the door
All I could hear was the family war
Your selfish hands always expecting more
Am I your child or just a charity award?

You have a hollowed out heart
But it's heavy in your chest
I try so hard to fight it but it's hopeless
Hopeless, you're hopeless

Oh, father, please, father
I'd love to leave you alone
But I can't let you go
Oh, father, please, father
Put the bottle down
For the love of a daughter
Oh

It's been five years since we've spoken last
And you can't take back
What we never had
Oh, I can be manipulated
Only so many times,
Before even "I love you"
Starts to sound like a lie

You have a hollowed out heart
But it's heavy in your chest
I try so hard to fight it but it's hopeless
Hopeless, you're hopeless

Oh, father, please, father
I'd love to leave you alone
But I can't let you go
Oh, father, please, father
Put the bottle down
For the love of a daughter

Don't you remember I'm your baby girl?
How could you push me out of your world,
Lied to your flesh and your blood,
Put your hands on the ones that you swore you loved?
Don't you remember I'm your baby girl?
How could you throw me right out of your world?
So young when the pain had begun
Now forever afraid of being loved

Oh, father, please, father
I'd love to leave you alone
But I can't let you go
Oh, father, please, father

Oh, father, please father
Put the bottle down
For the love of a daughter
For the love of a daughter"

|For the Love Of A Daughter -Demi Lovato|

I finished and took the headphones off.

I couldn't see them so I went outside and once I did they gave me a big applause.

"Thank you."

"Now you have to sing two more songs and you could come back with two other songs next sunday." Simon said.

"Okay." I hopped back on the stool and sang with the piano.

"When you try your best but you don't succeed
When you get what you want but not what you need
When you feel so tired but you can't sleep
Stuck in reverse

And the tears come streaming down your face
When you lose something you can't replace
When you love someone but it goes to waste
Could it be worse?

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

And high up above or down below
When you're too in love to let it go
But if you never try you'll never know
Just what you're worth

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you

Tears stream down your face
When you lose something you cannot replace
Tears stream down your face
And I

Tears stream down your face
I promise you I will learn from my mistakes
Tears stream down your face
And I

Lights will guide you home
And ignite your bones
And I will try to fix you."

For the third song i decided to sing the song my mom would sing to me.

"Your baby blues, so full of wonder
Your curly cues, your contagious smile
And as I watch, you start to grow up
All I can do is hold you tight

Knowing clouds will rage
And storms will race in but you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down, waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms

Story books full of fairy tales
Of kings and queens and the bluest skies
My heart is torn just in knowing
You'll someday see the truth from lies

When the clouds will rage
And storms will race in but you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down, waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms

Castles they might crumble
Dreams may not come true
But you are never all alone
Because I will always, always love you

When the clouds will rage
And storms will race in but you will be safe in my arms
Rains will pour down, waves will crash all around
But you will be safe in my arms, in my arms."

As I finished the song I had tears brimming my eyes.

I put the headphones down and walked out.

Dad was going to say something but he closed his mouth.

"Can we go home?" I asked.

He nodded and he drove me and my motorcycle home an the boys were in the truck.

I miss my mom.

Once we got home i ran to my room and laid on my bed crying.

"Bay? Could I come in?" A husky voice asked.

"Yeah." I said lowly.

Then all the boys came in and sat around my room.

"Why were you crying today?" Louis blurted as Harry nudged him as if to say 'What the Heck Man?!'

"It's nothing." I said.

"It's something Bay tell us." Dad said sitting next to me.

"Well that was the song my mom would always sing me. As cheesy as it sounds every time I sing it i feel she's still here. She died when I was 13 and my dad was an alcoholic and he abused me and left when I was 5. But I barely remember that. So basically the first song was my dad, the second song was the song I sang to myself, and the third song is for my mom." I said putting my head on my knees.

"H-How'd she die?" Niall asked.

"The Eastern's killed her." I choked out.

"That's why I'm against them. Derek and John trained me and let me be in the gang." I said crying.

All the boys expressions were shocked but also put together.

"That's why you were in the gang in the first place." Dad whispered as I nodded.

I cried as tears fell down on my lap and the boys all hugged me.

Then Louis said "Im sorry baby girl."

Then Dad said "I love you so much."
