I slid down the wall and brought my knees to my chest and put my head in my hands. My thoughts were tripping over each other. It made my head hurt as I tried to think about everything at once. I kissed Austin and then Niall caught us. Austin went home and Niall and I talked. I agreed to go on a date with Niall. Niall scared me at one point in time. But now not so much as before.

I stood up and walked into the bathroom. My mum normally kept the aspirin in there. As I searched through the cupboard I heard the front door open and click shut, signaling that someone had entered my house. Only a few people had the key to get in. Austin, my mum, and my self. They cops gave us the key my sister and father dad when they took them away.

"Hello?" I called as I walked down the stairs with a baseball bat in my right hand and my phone in the other hand.

"In here." someone called from the kitchen. I walked in and sighed in relief with I saw Austin searching the fridge.

"There's nothing in there." I told him. He laughed and stood up. I smiled at him and he sat down at the island.

"So about Niall..." he said. My smiled faded and I knew that he wouldn't like that I was going on a date with his tomorrow.

"Well, he brought me home and I agreed to go on a date with him tomorrow..." I told him trailing off a little at the end. His eyes flashed with anger and worry.

"I told you to stay away from him Charlie!" he yelled at me. I flinched at his loud words.

"You aren't the boss of me Austin!" I shouted back. He frowned and then took a few step towards me.

"No but who is? Your mothers in rehab and your sisters with your grandparents! Someone has to be!" he yelled. My blood was boiling.

"Don't talk about my mother!" I yelled at him. He smirked.

"Why not she's practically the reason your sisters dead and your fathers in prison. She's the reason for your life! Your pathetic life!" he said yelling towards the end.

"Dammit Austin!" I yelled slapping him right across the face. He was taken back but quickly rebounded.

"You know you belong with me! Not with him!" he yelled at me. His face was only a few inches from mine.

"I'll never be yours." I spat at him. He smirked and then smashed his lips against mine and pushed me up against the wall. I tried to pull him off me but nothing seemed to work. He was stronger then me and more powerful.

My vision began blacking out as be undressed my body. I would be sure to have bruises by tomorrow. The last thing I saw was Austin's naked body hovering over mine. Lust and anger in his eyes as he watched my facial expression change to nothing. Then I was gone.

Niall's p.o.v.~

I sped down the road towards Charlie's house. She had sent me an emergency text saying she needed help. It didn't matter what it was she needed help. I was only about ten minutes away when I saw Harry walking down the road alone. I pulled up to him he stopped to look in the car.

"Niall?" he asked. I nodded.

"No time to explain, Charlie's in trouble." I told him. His expression went to worried and he slid into the car. I hit the gas pedal and continued down the road to her house. I pulled into the drive way and I hurriedly got out and ran into the house. Harry quickly behind me the whole time as we searched the whole house. Lastly was the kitchen. I slowly walked in and tears filled my eyes when I saw Charlie's half naked and bruised up body on the ground.

"Niall calm down I'll call the police." Harry said walking to the other side of the kitchen dialing the number.

"CHARLIE, WAKE UP." I yelled. She didn't respond, her body was chilled. Her hair was tangled. What happened?

"Mate their on their way here. Just calm down." Harry said putting a hand on my shoulder. I spun around looking at him. The tears stung against my eyes.

"Don't tell me to calm down Styles." I muttered. He stepped back and rubbed his neck. I stayed by her side until the paramedics had to pull me off of her.

"Lets go to the hospital." Harry said. I nodded and I slid into the passengers side while Harry got into the drivers side and we began down the road behind the ambulance that took her away. A cop followed us which gave us permission to rush there along with them.

We parked the car and I ran inside the building. They said they had to get her in immediately because her heart rate was slowing with every minute that went by. So in other words we had to wait in the waiting room until they came out to tell us it was okay to see her.

"Its going to be fine." Harry told me. But it was a lie. Someone hurt Charlie not even an hour after I left her alone. She's always in that house alone, her mother became a nervous break down. She had no one left to protect her. That was why I need her.

"Who is here for Charlie Santiago?" the doctor asked. I jumped to my feet and Harry followed me over to him.

"We are." Harry said. My words were lost in my throat. This was the moment in time when I figure out if my love is lost or still here.

"Well, she was raped. The man knocked her out by a sudden hit. Probably by a wall or cabinet. But we got DNA on who did it from her clothes as well. We're sending to with the police officials at the moment." he said. I nodded along.

"So is she okay?" I asked him. He looked down at the ground that at Harry and I.

"Yes and No." he said. My world dropped. My heart leaped for joy but not even two seconds later it shattered in mid air. My smile dropped into a frown.

"How?" Harry asked for me.

"She's lost a lot of blood due to the fact she was cut and the loss of her virginity. Her head to a major blow. At the moment she's in a coma. I'll give her at the most 3 months until I cut the line that's holding her life. Im sorry." he said walking away. My mind spun as I took in all the information. How could this be happening?

I dropped to the floor not caring if I was drawing attention to myself. Not caring that strangers were watching my cry over a girl I just met but for some reason I already loved. Not caring that I was over attached to this girl. Not caring that I was broken.

"Mate lets go see her." Harry whispered. I nodded and he picked me off the ground and helped me over to the nurse behind the desk. "Excuse me we're looking for Charlie Santiago's room." Harry said to her. She smiled and typed away on the computer.

"Room 103." she said. Harry smiled at her and then we walked towards the room. My heart jumped to my throat, with every step we took I could hear it beat in my ears. Why was I so nervous?

Oh yeah. Because I, Niall James Horan, is in love with Charlie Renee Santiago.
