“What is that?!” “My sister” Meliza growled, slipping her robe on and running to her sister’s room. Niall followed close behind.

Misty was asleep, but having a really bad nightmare, tears were pouring down her face, the thrashing around hurt as well. Meliza knew exactly what to do and sat on the bed, stroking her cheek and singing a lullaby their parents used to sing to them softly to her little sister. Misty woke up screaming, looking around frantically and whimpering. Meliza kissed her cheek “Shh, baby it’s alright” Liam cooed. he had tried to wake her up but didn’t know how. “Don’t let him get in the car… I want dad..” she mumbled, looking around, before she woke up all the way and whimpered slightly partially from pain and the other because she remembered. Meliza rubbed her cheek softly “Everything’s alright love” she soothed. Misty shook her head and looked between Meliza and Liam. Liam stroked her hair, biting his lip. She held his hand and whimpered. “Mel I want Daddy,” she whispered, starting to shake. Meliza sniffled and hugged her “I know sissy, so do I. He’s happy now.” Misty held onto her tightly and hid her face in her big sisters shoulder, biting her lip. “He d-d-died again…. and then you… and t-then Liam..” she whispered into Meliza’s shoulder. Meliza kissed her hair “Shh, sweetie we’re both right here.” Misty hissed when the thrashing finally hit her back and she had to close her eyes to keep from screaming. Meliza let her sister squeeze her hand “Shh, love it’s alright” Misty shook her head, squeezing Meliza’s hand so hard she heard her sisters knuckles crack. Meliza closed her eyes tightly as Liam kissed her forehead “Come on love, let’s go back to bed.” he soothed.  Misty shook her head, still scared. “If I do y-y-you’ll be gone again,” she whispered, hanging onto her sister. Meliza yawned “Sissy we’re just two rooms over, I promise. Nothing’s gonna happen... Here” she whispered, taking off the necklace that her dad gave her, the shamrock, and putting it on her sister, kissing her forehead. “I love you” “I love you too sissy,” Misty whispered, saying. “Y-Your shamrock…. but y-y-you never t-take it off.” “Shh, it’ll help with the nightmares. It’s lucky you know” she joked before standing up. Misty started to shake, but didn’t argue. Liam hugged her, calming her down as Meliza took Niall’s hand and went back to bed.

Misty watched them go before putting her head in the crook of Liam’s neck and whimpering, “Li my back hurts so bad.” Liam sighed, wishing he could help. “I know baby, I know. I wish I could help” She snuggled into him and mumbled. “D-don’t leave me Li,” holding his hand. Liam held her close “I won’t darling, I promise.” Misty moved enough that she could look at him and she mumbled. “They made me watch you die,” before burying her face in his neck again. Liam held her close, making sure not to hurt her “Shh, love I’m right here” he soothed before humming softly. Misty started to fall asleep in his arms, holding onto him tightly. Liam hummed until she fell asleep, sighing. She seemed content, not moving at all, holding onto him tightly. Liam fell asleep after she did.

In the morning Niall woke Meliza up around eight, smiling at her. “Good morning beautiful.” Meliza snuggled closer to Niall, yawning. “Mornin” she mumbled. He smiled at her. “Is your sister’s birthday today or tomorrow?” he asked, kissing Meliza. She kissed back sleepily, mumbling “today” against his lips. He smiled slightly and held her close, saying, “You are such a cuddler when your asleep.” Meliza buried her face into his chest, not saying anything; she was well aware of this fact. He laughed lightly and rubbed her back. She froze suddenly “shiiiiiiit” she whined into his chest. “What?” “I forgot to buy her a present.” He nodded. “I doubt she’ll mind love, since they were in that accident, I think she’s just glad to be home.” Meliza sighed, she felt like such a bad sister. Niall kissed her gently. “Why don’t we make her breakfast, that’ll work.” Meliza kissed back and nodded “Let me get dressed” she mumbled, still sleepy. He nodded, carrying her to the bean bag chair and setting her down, before grabbing some clothes, and getting dressed. Meliza snuggled into the chair sleepily “Can you find me some clothes baby?” she mumbled. “Sure love, what do you want to wear?” “anything” she yawned.
