I Still Remember (a Niall Horan's fanfic)

Part 10

***

"I just hope she gives us time to continue with the project..." Niall said almost sweating of nerves."We will never end is too long for us..." He was now more nervous. He started to move his feet anxiously and to tight his hands hardly. 

"Hey Niall... What is wrong? Listen is just a project I can sleep late doing it don't worry." I said laying my hand on his knee. I thought that maybe it was because he didn't had time to investigate that much his part or something like that, but it was much more than that.

"I not that, look...." He breathed deeply and continued " Something happened last night, and I am not... not... calmed with it" I began to worry about it.

"Okay... what is it?" He looked at me and bite his lip trying not to say it.

"My dad... he ... he took... took" He couldn't even pronounce the words clearly. "He took my sister" I looked at him surprised about the situation. How could he do something like that?! He was crazy, he cannot take Ella that way.

"I thought he was going to come back in the morning but when you left with Chloe my mom called to say that my dad had called her" He breathed and stood up from the chair. "He said that she... she was okay, but she was going to live with him and he will not come back with her." 

 I couldn't believe this, it was so terrible.

"Don´t worry we will find her" I told him to give him some support, but I guess I wasn´t reaching my point. 

"No we won´t, you don´t know my father. He is the most difficult person I have ever meet. He won´t let me even see her from far." 

"Okay Niall. First of all you have to be a little more positive, please."I stopped form a minute and thought of getting out of school to go and look for her, obviously with permission. "Lets go" I said while I stood up from the chair. I prepared my things and took my back bag to my back. 

"What? No we can´t go just like this, we will get punished" He said getting the tears out of his face. 

"I know, that is why we are going to the principal to ask him if we can go" I took his hand and helped him get down the chair. "Lets go" 

We went out of the class, thank God Mrs. Katherine was late. We went walking calm to the   principal´s office. When we reached there I stopped at the door, breathed deeply trying to have some hope. 

I opened the door and quickly went in. 

"Hello, in what can I help you?" The secretary said really polite. 

"Well, we need to..." I stopped talking when I realized she was talking by the phone, not to me. I waited for her to stop talking, but she was taking too long, so she made us sings to sit down. 

We sat and he nervously whispered "What if they don´t let us go?" He said looking at me. He had the most worried face he had made. His eyes full of tears looking for an answer for all of his problems, his mouth without saying any words, but his eyes said more than his words. 

"They will, don´t worry" I told him. He was really sad, nervous and happy because I was supporting him. There were so many feelings mixed in him not hat moment. 

He breathed deeply and laid his arms on his knees. I could see all of his worries in his actions. Finally the secretary stopped talking. She called us and we went kind of running to her. 

"What do you need guys?" She said gathering his hands. She looked at us curiously, she thought we were int trouble, or we did something bad. 

"We really need to talk to the principal, is urgent" I said, Niall couldn't get the words out of his mouth so I told her. She looked at us and breathed impatiently. She fixed some of the papers she had on her desk and she looked at us again. 

"Look I don´t think he is free right now" I covered my mouth and told her with a little of rudeness

"Look he has a great problem that we really need to solve, please tell him is something much more important that what he thinks" He looked at me and even though she was not convinced she took the phone and called the principal. She told him it was really important. She took us inside his office and the first thing I saw was the face of the principal that told me that he didn´t really cared about our problems. 

"So... take a sit"  He said while he searched things on his computer. "Do you need something?" 

Niall was just going to say something when I interrupted him, I knew he was going to sound too innocent and the principal woudn´t care.

"Ye, we need you to let us go out of the school just for today."

He looked at me surprised and laughed. "No, that will be a complete and assure NO" He said rude. "Now you can leave" Niall stood up from his chair and I stopped him. I stood up from my chair and talked at him standing up.

"Niall has a great problem that we need to solve, so please let us go!" 

"No, look I don´t care your problems, go back to class" He said getting up from his chair and opening us the door. 

"Okay I will be more patient... Look his father" I stopped for a minute and looked down a Niall "Can I tell him?" I asked.

"Sure, if it will help me look for Ella it is okay" He said covering his face.

"His father is an alcoholic and he took his sister Ella Horan with him last night. No one knows were both of them are, we just know that his father is obviously drunk ans he may hurt Ella, would you please help us?" I said with no breath to keep talking. I was almost crying. He closed the door and went back to his sitting. 

"Okay, but you won´t go alone, you will go with me." He stood from his sit and took his jacket. I was so surprised that I didn´t realize that  I had to get up. 

"Let´s go" The principal said. 

"Thank you, really thank you, come on Niall." I took his hand and guided him to the principal´s offices door. 

He guided us to his car and opened the door. It was a suburban, a black one. He took us the police station, to see if they can help us in something. 

We arrived to the police station and one of the police officers helped us.

"Tell me, what is your problem?" She said sitting down on her desk´s chair. 

"Well, he is Niall and he has lost, well not completely, but he has lost his sister" I didn't knew how to explain it. "Look his father is an alcoholic, and yesterday he took his little sister who is five years old, her name is Ella Horan. He was drunk when he took her, so we are really worried because she hasn´t returned home, and today at the early morning his dad called his mother to tell her that Ella was safe, but he was not coming back with her."I explained

"Okay... It is a little complicated. Can you take us to your place so we can check is there is anything that can help us find her?" She asked almost taking her things to go inspect the house. 

"Well, sure, sure" Niall said getting his things and helping the police officer

"Harry, come with me! Help me in this case please!" She called the other police officer.

"Going" He went with us running and he took a dog. 

***

"Hi Mrs. Horan!" We came to help you with Ella" She smiled at us and with her face completely red and his eyes irritated because of the crying she had the courage to talk

"Yes come in, thank you" She opened the door and hugged Niall, thanking God that at least he was there to support her. 

The police officers checked the house and took a photo and a shirt of Ella. They went away and Niall, Mrs. Horan, the principal and I stayed at Niall´s place.
