Their Saving Grace {One Direction AU}

Chapter 3

"Riley? That's a beautiful name." She blushed and turned back to look out the window.

"What's your sister's name? She is your sister right?" She nodded.

"Al-Alice. Pl-ple.." She st oped cause she was stuck on a word.

"Please?" I asked and she nodded again.

"Pl-plea-please don't hu-hurt her. She's ve-very fr..." She stopped again, trying to think how to say the word.

"Fragile?" I tried helping again. She nodded. "I wont her hurt, I promise and I wont hurt you."

We sat there in silence till we both turned our heads to the direction crying was coming from. Riley jumped over top of me and raced to the couch. I followed after her , Alice was awake and crying.

Riley tried to soothe her.

"What happened?" I ask gingerly sitting down beside the girls. 

"Sc-scared I was go-gone. "

" I'm sorry is there anything I can do?" I asked and Riley shook her head no. 

"Okay, well I'm going to go to bed. You should too. I'll see you in the morning,yeah?" Riley nodded. I gave them pillows and blanket to sleep. I walked into Niall and I's room. We had to share a room, cause it was the only bedroom in the flat. 

In the morning I made breakfast for Niall, the girls and myself. The girls haven't awoken yet. Niall was complaining about how we still didn't have enough room. 

A knock sounded from the door. 

"Niall can you get the door please?"

"Why not." He said rolling his eyes and walking towards the front door.

I continued to cook breakfast. I was cooking pancakes. I took a step back from the stove and I step on something. I squeak came from behind me. I turned around to see the red head girl and behind her was the brunette head girl. 

"I'm so so sorry. I didn't mean to step on you. "

"Liam, Harry and Zayn are here!" Niall yelled though the flat. 

Zayn was Harry's boyfriend. They have been dating for four years now. When Harry first started dating Zayn, Harry's mum was a little upset, but she got over it and expected Harry being gay. 

"Hey mate, what are you cooking?" Harry said in the door way.

"Pancakes, do you want some?"

"Yes, please. "

"Harry you didn't tell Zayn about the girls did you?" Harry looked down at the ground.  

"Harry you did, didn't you"

"No I did. Was I not suppose too?"

"Harry do you know how much danger they could be in?" He nodded. "Then why did you?" 

"It slipped, I guess."

"How did it slip?" I asked turning around to finish cooking.

"Well, yesterday Zayn was still not home yet and I got really lonely, so I came over here. When I left here, Zayn asked me how school was and I told him how I was learning about hybrids and I guess I was still excited of meeting two hybrids yesterday and it slipped out of my mouth. I'm sorry Liam."

"It's alright, now can you set the table for six please."

"Sure.'' I finished cooking and the table was set. Harry had poured drinks for us. Two glasses was filled with milk and the rest was filled with orange juice.

I sat at the head of the table, the girls sat in the middle part next to each other. Niall sat across from me, Zayn and Harry sat in the middle. I could tell Zayn was trying not to stare at the girls, but they noticed him stareing and hid their ears.

"Zayn youre my boyfriend stop staring at them." Harry pouted.

" I know I am, but I think it's cool meeting a real hybrid" Zayn said grinning. Both girl's hissed.

"Zayn they think you're going to rake them away from here do an experiment, stop grinning!" Harry yelled.

"Sorry." Zayn said to both Harry and the girls.

We finished up breakfast and sat there and talked for awhile. I entertained the girls by having them watch the telly. They really enjoyed watching the moving pictures on the screen. Zayn tried sitting close to them and Riley hissed at him.

"You really don't like me do you?" He asked Riley. Riley shook her head  no.

"Hey Zayn, I'm  going out later today to look for a second job. Would you like to come with me?" I asked basically changing the subject.

"Um.. sure. When are you planning on going out?"

"We can go now if you would like?"

"Yeah that's fine." We both got up from our seated postion.

"No! No! No! C-can n-not l-le-leave us!" Riley yelled tugging on the hem of shirt.

"I can't take you with me, it's to much of a risk too. I'm sorry, Niall and Harry are going to stay here. If anything goes wrong just tell me when I get home alright." Riley nodded.

Zayn and I left my flat. We went to the mall to see if any jobs were open. There was two opening one for Vans and Hollister. I already know I'm not the type of person to be working at Hollister, but Vans is a option.

Right before we left the mall, a flyer on the wall caught my eye. The sign said:

Help Wanted!

Call 44-70-4530-8020 for more information.

I took the flyer off the wall and folder it. I put the folder paper in my pocket.

"Are we done or do want to keep looking around?" Zayn asked.

"Nope I'm good. When I get home I'm going to call that number."

"Alright, but do you know anything that flyer said?"

"Nope, but whoever that trainer is he's going to train me, if i get that job."

Once we got back to my flat, I heard yelling and really loud crying. I also heard a glass shatter. I rushed into the house Zayn right behind me. when we got inside, the sofa was flipped upside down, Alice was in the corner crying and Riley was no where to be found.

I could hear Niall and Harry yelling.
