~Liam's Pov~

The boys and I were all bundled up in the living room with Lidia sitting by Niall.  It's been almost an hour since Bailey went to go take a shower.  Yes, I know she is a girl but she's our little girl.  Mostly Harry's though.  It seems like Bailey grew to be attached to him as soon as we got her.  

"Guy's," Louis started to say but got cut off by Lidia clearing her throat "and girl, Bailey hasn't come downstairs in awhile.  Someone should go check on her."  Everyone looked at Harry.

"Why me?"  He asked with a confused expression.  We all gave him the same look and a look of realization rolled on his face.n  "Fine.  I'll go."  So he got up and headed up stairs.

Niall looked at Lidia "do you know what's wrong with her?"  She looked at everyone with an expression I couldn't read.  She just shook her head.  

Louis looked at me and shrugged his shoulders.  "I really hope she's okay with being adopted and having a new family."  I stated.  Lidia was about to respond but got cut off by a door slamming and someone screaming something along the lines of 'I'm sorry'.  But I could be wrong.  

We all looked towards the stairs and down came a close crying harry.  We all jumped up when he came to the last step.

Louis ran towards him and wrapped his arms around him.  As soon as he did this, Harry let out his tears.  "What happened?"  Louis asked pulling away.

Harry looked at him and got a hold of himself and looked at everyone else.  He shook his head and looked at Lidia one last time and ran out the door.  We all looked at Lidia and when we looked at her, we saw she already had tears in her eyes.   She looked at everyone, put her hand over her mouth and let out a sob.   Niall ran over to her and tried to hug her.  Except, she just shrugged him off and ran upstairs.

~Lidia's POV~

When Harry looked at me before he ran off, I knew what happened as soon as he did.  I started tearing up as soon as it hit me.  All the boys looked at me and I put my hand over my mouth and let out a sob.

Next thing I know, Niall is trying to comfort me but I just shrugged him off and ran upstairs to my bedroom.  Before I did, I stopped at Bailey's door and listened to her cry.   I feel bad but it's her fault to be honest.  I hate to say it, but it's true.  

I walked to my room and moved to duvet back so I can climb into bed.  I couldn't sleep though.  I climbed out of bed, grabbed my pillow and duvet then walked out of the bedroom. 

As I walked past Bailey's room, I realized she was still crying.  I opened her door and saw her cradling herself in the corner rocking herself back and forth.  I dropped my stuff on the floor and shut the door.  I fast walked to her and sat down next to her.   I wrapped my arms around her and she laid her head on my shoulder.

"It's gonna be alright, eventually."  I told her in a soft voice.  She just shook her head.

"But it's not.  It's never gonna be.  Everyone leaves.  Everyone hates me.  Hell, Harry even walked out on me when I tried to explain.  He's the only one who I trust besides you.  And he left.  He just walked out.  He's ashamed of me and I can't do anything about it.  He's gonna take me back there.  He's gonna beat me without anyone knowing like every other person who adopted me.  The boys most likely will too.  They're gonna leave us.  I'm trying my hardest but I'm failing.  I'm drowning and no one is saving me.  Everyone's looking at me like I'm some psycho or something.  I still have the nightmares from that night.  I'm scared."  She looked at me in tears.  I know she's truly scared because she never cusses unless she is or she's seriously mad.

"Let's go to bed, sis.  I'll be beside you the whole night."  She took a shaky breath, got up and got in bed.  I went over to her night stand and grabbed Rufus.  He's a little penguin that is black and has white spots on it.  She can't sleep without it.  

I went over to the bed and climbed in.  I cuddled up to her and we soon fell into a nightmare less sleep.
