We all go in the car and I was given a rag to hold up to my head. It hurt so bad right now. I pulled the cloth down and look at it. There was quite a bit of blood on it. It didn't take long to get to the hospital. When we went in, Gina ran to the front desk. Larry and Ty helped me over to a seat. My head hurt and it was effecting my coordination. I sat down and Gina came back over. She sat down on the other side of Larry. It was maybe 5 minutes until the doctor called me back. I got up to go and Gina followed.
Liam'sPOV
I got a call on my phone from Gina. I didn't know why she was calling and the only reason I answered was because I wanted to know how Taylor was doing. "Hello" I said into the receiver. "Liam" She said her voice shaking. "Taylor was pushed at school while playing basketball and cut her head open. She is going to need stitches." She said. "I will be their soon." I said and hung up the phone. I told Harry where in was going and ran out to my car. I started my car and started the short drive to the hospital.
When I got in the door I didn't see Gina or Taylor anywhere. The only people I saw waiting were three boys. Two of them looked to be Taylors age and the other looked older. I walked over to them and said "Hey do you guys know Taylor Pay- I mean Maslow?" I asked them. They looked at each other and the oldest said "Yea I'm her older cousin. This is my younger brother Bay, and his friend Larry." He said pointing to each of the boys. "Who are you, may I ask?" Larry said. "I'm her cousin Liam Payne." I answered them. "Well she went in with my mom to get her head checked." Bay said. " Do either of you know what happened?" I asked. "Yes. I invited her to play basketball with us and when she got the ball she was running down the court when Brian from the other team came up and pushed her. She fell hitting her head and scraping up both of her elbows. So we rushed her home and now we are here." Larry said.
It was then that I saw Taylor and Gina walk out. I ran up to Taylor, and hugged her. She hugged me back. I looked at her stitches. Why did this happen. "Are you ok girl?" I asked her. She nodded and smiled. I turned to Gina and told Taylor to go with Ty, Bay, and Larry. "You need to keep an eye on her. Has she talked to you or the boys at all?" I asked Gina. "No, I thought she didn't talk?" She answered. "She doesn't talk." I said.
I told Taylor bye and I drove home. I don't know why but I have a bad feeling about her living with them. The boys seemed nice but I don't know about Gina and her husband. Mainly her husband. I went over to the house when they were at school. I knocked on the door and he answered. We didn't talk much but when we did he didn't say much like he was hiding something. After like 10 minutes he forced me out the door, not telling me why.
I got home and I didn't talk to the boys I just went up to my room.
Taylor'sPOV
Liam left and we left shortly after that. My head still hurt but not as bad. We all got in the car and left for home. The short ride home was filled with silence. When we got home I went up to my room. Larry and Bay went into Bay's room to play video games, and Ty left to visit some friends. I was laying in my bed and read a book when Bob came in. "So you can't talk?" He asked. I shook my head. "So you couldn't scream?" He asked. I started to get worried. Why would he ask that. I shock my head again but very timidly.
He took a step closer and I backed up in my bed. I was really scared and there was no way of calling for help. He took another step closer and was at the end of my bed. Luckily my bed wasn't against the wall and I took my chance running for the door. I had my hand on the door when I was picked up and thrown on the floor landing with a thud. I looked up with pleading eyes hoping he wouldn't hurt me. He lifted his hand and I felt his fist contact with my side. Then there was a kick to the stomach and to the shins. "You're pathetic Taylor, I don't know why the boys care for you so much." He said and walk out leaving the door open.
I lay on the floor not being able to move because of the pain. I tried getting up once but the pain in my side and shin was to much to bare. I couldn't call for help. I was a hopeless heap on the ground. That was when I head the front door open and slam shut. Oh no he's back, I thought in my head. I heard someone walking down the hall but from where I was laying I couldn't see the door. I herd someone gasp and run over to me. I didn't look to see who it was, I was to afraid to be hit again.
"Taylor are you OK?" I herd Ty say. I tried once again to get up and managed to stand with the help of Ty. I nodded my head and he sat me down on my bed. He ran to Bays room and came back with Bay and Larry following him. Bay stopped and stared at me wide eyed. It was then that I noticed that there was a buries the size of Bobs fist on my arm. I don't remember him hitting me there but he must have. I also noticed a rip in my jeans from where in was thrown on the ground.
"Taylor did Bob do this to you?" I didn't do anything but stare at the ground. Ty came over to me and made me look at him. "Tell me if he did because he has done it to all of us, even Larry. We don't tell anyone. Taylor tell me did Bob do this to you?" I nodded as I looked back down at the ground. Ty got up and stormed out for my room. Bay and Larry came and sat on either side of me. Bay hugged me and I wiped my tears. I don't cry. I haven't cried since my mom died. Larry hugged me too. I hugged both of them back and we all looked up when we heard a big crash that came from the kitchen. I looked at Bay. "Ty and dad are fighting again." I heard yelling and I buried my head into Bays shoulder. He hugged me tighter. I wasn't used to this. My parents never fought, or if they did I wasn't around. The boys never fought either. I heard another crash and a yell. I then heard someone running up the stairs and my door slam before I looked up to see Ty with a bruise forming around his eye, and he had a cut with a piece of glass in his arm.
He slid down and sat on the floor in front of my door. He let out a sigh and looked at his arm. Ty took the piece of glass out and threw it in the trash can. He then pulled the red bandana that was in his pocket and tied it around the wound. "OkTaylor, don't tell anyone or he will kill all of us and I mean it if anyone asked tell them you got the bruises from falling down the stairs. They can know the truth about the stitches though." He said. "And if anyone asks you about me tell them i got it boxing. Got it?" He finished. I nodded and look at him. He now had a black eye and it was getting worse. They got up and walked out of my room because it was getting late and we were all tired. Larry was staying over even though we had school and Bay told me if I needed anything he was across the hall.
I walked over to my dresser and grabbed some PJs and walked into my bathroom starting the shower. I quickly washed my hair and body and got out. I dried my body and put on my shorts and shirt and looked down at where I was kicked. The was a giant bruise, it hurt but not as bad. The was also a bruise on my side and stomach. If Liam saw these he would flip out. I walked out of my bathroom and sat in my bed. I heard a crash in the kitchen then some cussing. I was beyond scared and I ran across the hall into Bays room. They where still up playing video games. "Taylor you ok?" I shook my head and he patted the bed next to him. I sat down and watched as they played their game. I heard footsteps and I jumped. Larry jumped out of the bed and ran over to the door locking it.
There was a knock on the door. No one said anything. We then heard Ty's voice say "Guys let me in its Ty" Larry unlocked the door and Ty walked in. "Guys have you seen Taylor?" He asked and them he looked at me. "Ok you are safe. I thought he took you. Hey guys I'm gonna sleep in here with you tonight so he wont hurt Taylor anymore." He said relocking the door.
"Let's just all go to bed we can all sleep on the floor." Larry said. We all found a spot to lay down in. I slept farthest from the door Bay in the middle with Larry next to him and then Ty was next to the door. It didn't take long until I finally feel asleep.

A/n ok please tell me how I am doing I need to know if I should keep going. I need to know. Oh and Larry has nothing to do with Lou and Harry I was running out of names.
