Orphan Status [NH & HS]

Chapter One

*this is about Niall horan and harry styles and everything about them is fiction. Niall's mom is not Maura in this and etc. hope you like it :)) * 

I've only ever grown up with my mum. She's been my protector, my best friend, my shoulder to cry on, my discipline, etc, since day one. I didn't have any siblings, my dad died when I was five years old and my mum never remarried. It's only ever been us two. My cousin Niall has lived down the street all my life until he moved to Cheshire with his best mate, Harry. 

"It's so weird to think she's gone. My dad died when I was five years old, twelve years later and my mum is gone. It was the car crash down by Bill's Bar. The one where two people died and three hospitalized." Every Friday I go to this group at my school for depression and anxiety or some type of mental disability, and my psychiatrist told me I should join it to feel secure. To feel like I'm not alone.

"Becca, I know how it feels to lose your parents, mine both died in a fire when I was ten years old. My mimsi and papa took me in along with my brother and we've lived with them ever since. When they passed away it was so hard for me to move past it and to move on but, mimsi told me that they are in a better place and that sooner than later I have to accept the fact they are gone."  Lilly had told me. Lilly has been my best friend since we were about twelve. We just clicked and it turns out we have a lot in common. Dead parents being one of them.

"Do you have anymore family?" Asked the group counselor. I shrugged,"Both sets of my grandparents died before I was even born. My mums sister, Rachel has a son named Niall. She's still alive but, she moved to America to be with this guy she met online. Niall is living with his mate Harry, in Cheshire England."

"Maybe you should move in with Niall and his mate? Some support from family." Stated Jeffrey. I bit my lip, a habit when I'm nervous, and looked over at Lilly for her support. She was playing with her hands in her lap,"Becca, I hate saying this because, I want you to stay here. But, you should go. Talk to him about it! Start over, make new friends, go to a new school! It'd be good for you!" I started crying out of happiness. 

I never thought I'd have a new start. I always thought since my mum was gone it was over. That I'd be put into foster care, be taken somewhere else or something, I never thought that Niall would even consider me living with him. I mean, I haven't talked to him in like three years but, I could easily ask him.

They let out group and I rushed to my car. I was still staying at my house until I couldn't pay the bills. After that? I still would have stayed there, I would've hid from the new people that moved in. After they took out all the furniture, fixed up the damaged parts, and put the 'for sale' in the front yard. I'd still be there, looking for somewhere to go.  I really need to talk to Niall before that happens. 

I got home and unlocked the front door and called Niall. "Becca?" I could hardly breathe,"Niall, I have a huge favor to ask you..."

"Of course, what is it?" 

"You heard about my mum right...?" I heard him take in a sharp breathe,"she was my aunt, she was my family! I heard. What is it you need?" I started to tear up. Just thinking about her makes me emotional. "I need- I need a place to stay." He wasn't saying anything,"and I was wondering if I could stay with you and your mate"

"I mean that's something I have to speak to Harry about. Of course you can, I just need to check with him. I'll call you when he gets home and we can talk about it."

"Thank you Niall! This means so much, I love you!"

"I love you too." And with that he hung up. 

*NIALL'S POV*

"I love you too." 

I don't know if I want her to live here. I love her, she's my favorite cousin. I just don't want her to be here alone with Harry, EVER. He's my best mate, we've been best friends for years. Course we met on Xbox and that's why I'm in Cheshire, but we've been playing together for years. 

Harry walked into the flat and put his jacket on the hook,"it is freezing out there! I fell on my arse and about broke something!"

"You clumsy idiot!" Harry chuckled and came over to me,"so what's up?"

"How do you feel about Becca moving in with us?"

"You mean Michell's kid? Your aunt who passed away?" 

"Yeah that one. She has nowhere to stay, she can't pay the bills even if she got a job. I mean this would be a great place for her to restart" Harry rested his hands on his hips and sucked at his teeth,"I think it'll be okay. We have a spare down the hall"

"Alright, I'll give her a call" I really hope Harry doesn't fuck this up.

*BECCA'S POV* 

"Hello?" Niall had called me back about an hour later of me pacing around the kitchen. I could practically feel him smiling through the phone,"Becca! Pack your things and let me know when you leave! We have a spare room, and Harry is okay with it. Start packing!"

"OH MY GOD! OKAY!" I hung up and ran to the basement and grabbed a bunch of boxes and ran to my room. Took me about three hours to pack my entire room, and to get everything else shipped out. 

I went to my mum and dads room. It was so cold, and quiet. I sat on their bed,"I'm moving out soon, I'm going to Cheshire to live with Niall and his mate Harry. I've been going to that support group lately. They suggested I should go, to start over. I'll be back though! I promise." I smiled down at myself and felt a tear drop on my hand. It was hard to even think about leaving this house with the thought my parents could still be here watching over me. 

I went over to the closet and saw my mum's wedding dress. It was so beautiful. Right next to it was my dad's tux. I miss them, from what I remember their relationship was flawless, they never taught, they were always happy. I miss that. I want that.
