The One Mistake

Chapter 12

Georgia's POV

Liam starts to sob which also causes me to cry.

He leans his head back, with his eyes screwed shut, and he slams his head against my wall and there is a loud crashing noise.

He leans forward to do it again but I grab his head and kneel down next to him.

"Stop. Please." I beg and rest my forehead against his.

"Please. Just stop." I sob and my tears spill onto him.

He grabs my head and holds it in place.

His tears are still falling and we look into each other's eyes.

"I'm sorry Georgia." he pleads.

I shake my head and stand back up.

Niall brings me into his arms again and I start to sob and shake and he rubs circles on my back.

I look back at Liam who looks absolutely heartbroken.

Liam stands up quickly but falls back over and is motionless.

"Shit." Niall says and we let go and carry him onto the couch.

I run and grab an ice pack and rest it on his head and put a pillow underneath.

"Could you watch him while I feed Eloise?" I ask Niall and he gives me a tired smile and nod.

I feed Eloise and walk back over to Niall and Liam and sit Eloise in my lap as I sit on the floor.

Liam starts to stirr and my heartbeat quickens.

He opens his eyes and looks over at me.

"Baddy!" Eloise squeals.

"Hey princess." he smiles and puts a hand on her arm.

Niall grabs his arm and pulls it away.

Liam turns and looks at Niall angry with a scowl on his face.

"What the hell do you think your doing?" he snarls.

"Protecting your daughter." Niall quickly responds.

"From her own father?" he laughs dryly and slowly sits up.

"You don't deserve to be her father." Niall snaps.

"Yes I do. I'm her father god dammit not you." Liam says raising his voice.

"Well like I said before you don't deserve to be her father." Niall retorts.

Liam clenches his fists which have busted knuckles and leaps onto Niall.

I quickly set down Eloise next to me and try and pull Liam off of Niall.

"Liam stop!" I cry.

He is clutching Niall hard and has him pinned down.

"Baddy?" I hear Eloise ask and starts to waddle over to us.

"No Eloise go back over there." I instruct.

She doesn't listen and I don't know what to do.

I can't risk her getting hurt put I can't let Niall get hurt.

I quickly let go of Liam and set Eloise on the couch away from us and leap back onto Liam who's fist was about to collide with Niall's face.

"No!" I scream and with every ounce of muscle I have I tackle him.

I hear Niall's ragged breaths and I have Liam pinned underneath me.

"Stop. Just please stop." I cry and tears are rolling down my face again.

I climb off of Liam and look at Niall who is thankfully holding Eloise.

I hear my front door open and am greeted by Harry, Louis, and Zayn.

They quickly realize that I'm crying and Louis comes over and wraps me in a hug.

"We came to get Liam. We have our van waiting outside. We knew he was here and collected his things from his mum's house." he explains.

I nod and wipe my tears.

Liam stands up looking angry again.

"What about Niall?!" he protests.

"We have already talked to management and they have agreed to let Niall stay here and come next week. Hopefully with the girls." Zayn says sending me a sim pathetic smile.

I nod and get hugged by each of them.

"No. I'm not leaving her here with him." he says jabbing a finger in Niall's direction.

The boys sigh and grab onto Liam dragging him outside.

"No! Let me go! I'm Not leaving without her!" I hear him scream.

I hear a door slam and I walk over to Niall who sets Eloise down and wraps me in a hug.

"I'll take care of you. I promise." he whispers.
