Alices POV*******
Niall sat down beside me as we played 20 questions. It was weird since no one has taken time to talk to and be nice to me unless they had too at the orphanage. He asked me simple things like from my favorite color to my favorite place to eat and etc. It was weird since usually I don't open up to people and act myself around people but I felt a sense of comfort around Niall and felt safe around him just like I do around Connor and Rylee.I don't trust Rylee but I know she won't hurt me.And I can tell Niall isn't gonna hurt me either. I feel like i'm starting to trust Niall.
Niall was about to ask me another question since we were taking turns asking questions when Connor ran over too me.
"Alice!" he whispered there we tears in his eyes and I knew someone must have asked about our past or why we were at the orphanage, Connor is strong about everything but once it gets to why we ended up here or why we are here he gets weak and can't be bothered.
I stood up as Niall watched us and I gave Connor a hug. We stood there for a good 5 minutes while Connor calmed down and had finished tellling me what had happened Niall coughed.
"sorry to interupt but your sketches are really cool!" Niall said handing connor his sketch pad. Connor blushed. I knew Connor loved to draw but I rarely saw his sketches or anything unless he was really proud of one or showed me it himself.
"And Niall this is my brother connor and Con this is Niall hes visiting the orphanage" I said smiling. Connor gaped.
"ALICE!" He screamed.
"what?" I said concerned.
"You--youu smiled!, You haven't had a geunuine smile like that since mom..." He trailed off.
"OH MY GOD YEAH!" I said putting my hands up to my face and doing that jumpy screaming thing that girls do when they get excited. yeah you know what I mean.
I stopped and then I remembered mom. She died when I was 6 in a car crash. The stupid drunk driver. The abuse from my dad about a few months after her death...
I shuddered at the horrible thoughts and memories that started to cloud in my mind. I put my hand over my stomach, I still felt his name there..
when I was about 12 my dad took a knife out, as usual I got scared because I hated when he cut me up with it but he grabbed me and threw me on the bed I got scared because I knew what was going to happen.
he raped me again. I never told connor though. But my dad had cut his name into my stomach. Connor had seen it before but it was so painful but it now has been carved on my stomach for 3 solid years. It reminds me everytime I look in the mirror after a shower or when I get dressed I see it. I hate it.
"Alice stop" Connor said. I looked at him confused as he broke me out of my thoughts.
"Oh sorry" I moved my hand away.
"Anyway nice to meet you Niall!" Connor said sticking a hand out for Niall.
"You too buddy" Niall smiled shaking his hand back.
"Connor are you alright?" I turned around to see a brown hair and blue eyed boy about 20 or 21 looking at connor.
"I'm alright Louis" Connor said with a small smile on his face.
"Oh you met louis?" Niall asked Connor.
"Yeah you know him?" Connor inquired. Niall laughed.
"yes I do him and our bandmates all came to the orphanage today" Niall said pointing to three other boys around the room. I couldn't see their faces but they sure had some nice hair haha.
"Anyway Niall did you pick someone yet?" Louis asked. Niall nodded.
I looked to the floor realizing he was going to reject me now.
"Alice are you ok?" Niall asked as he stood up.
"I'm fine" I mumbled. Niall sighed and walked away with Louis.
I ran away to my room connor hot on my trail. I ran into my room and slammed the door.
Connor walked in and shut the door.
I started to cry.
"he lied to me!" I screamed through my tears.
"Shhh" Connor cooed and wrapped me in his arms.
"whats wrong with me Con" I sobbed.
"i'm a fucking depressed shit and i'm broken beyond repair" I gripped his hoodie tightly and screamed into his chest.
"and my self-harming is only getting worse" I whispered. I held onto Connor for dear life as we sat on the bed.
"Shhhh" Connor cooed as I started hiccupping from slowly stopping my tears.
Connor rubbed circles on my back as I stopped crying.
We sat up against the headboard of the bed and I put my head in connors lap looking up at the ceiling.
"You realize our brother-sister relationship is so weird right" I chuckled talking to connor, he laughed.
"it really is we act like we are in a relationship but really that would be gross no offense or anything" he chuckled.
"none taken" we just laughed and joked about other things as put my ipod on the ihome and it began playing "No Air" By Jordin Sparks. I loved singing this song. Our family was poor growing up but I ended up saving up some money little by little from doing dirty work at the coffee shop down our street since our dad could barely pay the bills after mom passed away and his drinking and smoking problems started. I started working there and had saved up a small stash of money. Connor and I used about half of it up after we ran away since the orphanage was far away from our "home" I hate calling it home because I never felt safe there, anyway.
Niall's P.O.V
I watched as Alice ran up to her room. it hurt a little to watch her run away i went up to the boys and said " Hey boys i found someone i think we should adopt " . but then Louis said " but Niall i found someone too " . that broke me a little but i wanted to adopt Alice so bad . " OK.OK how about this we can adopt both of them if that's fine with all of you guys " said Liam and me face brightened as he said that . and harry and Zayn were totally up for it too! ok so me and Louis went up to the counter and said we would like to adopt Alice and Connor please."
