Broken

Chapter 9

Liams POV--

Why wasn't Niall at school?! It's like he's already graduated or something, because he's never there!

Well, neither am I, but its more important for him to be there because if I'm not there they can always hire a sub...

...But I don't want to get fired....

I decided to go to his house to check up on him, make sure he wasn't doing "experiments" on himself.

I arrived at Niall's house at about half past 4. I got out of my car and walked up to his door, knocking harshly without thinking. A few seconds passed before a familiar face, ((in which I did not want to see)) was smiling in front of me.

"Oh, hey Liam!" Gabriel pipped cheerfully, stepping aside so I could find my way in.

"Where's Niall?" I asked him, just as he was shutting the door. "Upstairs, but just so you know, we have company." he said, catching up to me.

"Really? Who?" I questioned. Who would be here? "Well, first off, another boy with abilities. And then there's the most caring, thoughtful, lovely girl that ever existed." he smiled at me.

"Your girlfriend? Your wife? Do you have a wife?" I shot the questions, one by one. He sighed and rubbed the bridge of his nose.

"Why must this always happen to me? First off, no, I do not have a wife. I'm gay. G-A-Y: gay. Second, she's my sister. Her name is Penny." he said, informatively, just as we reached the top of the stairs.

"Oh, okay. I was just wondering since you pointed out all of these wonderful attributes that most men only see in their wives." I replied, seriously. Most men describe there wives as "beautiful", "caring", "lovely". But they make out their girlfriends to be "hot" or "big breasted".

Breasts.

Ew.

So this is why everyone said I should be a teacher.

No wonder.

I followed Gabriel into Niall's room, where he was lying on his bed reading a "Deadpool" comic. There were two other people in the room, sitting in the corner, giggling.

"What are you giggling about?" Gabriel asked, walkıng towards them and sitting down next to them.

"You." Penny giggled, watching her brothers' jaw drop. "So you're gossiping about me, eh?" he asked in astonishment, a smug look plastered on his face.

"I'm just telling Louis about the time you set fire to that kid's bed back in the 30's and blamed it on his roomate!" the boy, Louis, burst out laughing when she said that.

"I don't remember that! Did you Hatian me?!" he gasped, with wide eyes. "It wasn't necessarily me, but you were Hatian'ed. It was Ed! He thought it would be funny!" she burst out laughing, face turning red.

"I'm gonna kill him!" he yelled, standing up, causing Penny's face to grow serious.

"No! He's your friend, remember?" she tried to convince him not to "kill" his friend. Gabriel smiled and giggled, obviously at his sister. "I'm not really gonna kill him! Did you think I was?" he asked, sitting back down next to her.

"Yeah." she said in an obvious voice.

He bent down and whispered something in her ear, which I couldn't make out. She nodded as he moved his head away. "You have a valid point." she said, causing him to blush.

Louis stood up and left the room, obviously feeling like the third wheel to the two very close siblings.

I made my way over to Niall and sat down on the foot of his bed. "Why is everyone here?" I asked him. He put his comic book down and looked at me, sighing.
