ADOPTED BY ONE DIRECTION!!

I was pulled from my sleep by a loud crash, followed by screams.

"Mummy?" I cried out, I heard another bang, like fireworks on bomfire night.

"RUN NOW! LEAVE ME! GET KATIE GO NOW!" I heard my mums voice scream out into the darkness.

"NO IM NOT LEAVING YOU!" I heard my Dad's voice.

"GO PLEASE! I LOVE YOU!"

I waited expectantly on the bed, for someone to come. Minutes ticked by and nobody did.

I looked at the door, thats when i noticed the smoke wafting into my room, I screamed.

I pushed my small body as far away from the stuff as possible.

It advanced towards me slowly, tears were pouring down my face,

I shielded my hands over my face, the black stuff only inches away.

"I love you mummy and Daddy!" Were the last words i spoke before I fell into blackness.

------------

I sat up adruptly, drenched in sweat.

breathing heavily, I pulled myself out of my bed.

This is the 4th night this week I had that flashback. The same horrible memories of that night, 8 years ago.

The memories are the reason why i'm in this place... The firemen pulled me out of the fire in time. But there were no bodies found that belonged to my mum or dad.

So I got put into this orphanage, I looked around the room, at the blank walls I knew so well. I sighed and looked at the clock on the wall.

6:30, No point in going back to sleep, as we have to be up and dressed at seven anyway.

I attempted to brush through my hair with my fingers, until I came accross a knot and gave up.

I pulled the only hairband off my wrist and put my hair up into a high ponytail.

I looked through my small amount of belongings and grabbed a pair of pants, a bra, a pair of shorts and a t-shirt.

I got changed and felt slightly refreshed.

I grabbed my guitar I got from Bethany, as a birthday present. - She is the only person I can trust here, She's incharge of the place, keeps it running even with the lack of money that comes in. - I sat down on my bed and started strumming some chords, getting lost in the sweet music.

**Liam's pov**

I scrolled through my notifications on twitter, bored. Clicking off my phone I pulled myself up off the sofa and went to find the lads.

I found Louis and Zayn playing a game of FIFA together, I chuckled at the amount of cussing there was involved.

"Guys, We have a meeting with Management in half an hour ok? We are leaving in 10!" I informed them.

"Yeah ok, just let us finish this game!" Zayn replied. You would have thought having an uneventful day would be fun. However, I could tell It was getting to all of us,

"HARRY, NIALL? WE HAVE A MEETING WITH MANAGEMENT IN 10! GET READY TO GO!" I shouted, my voice echoing around the house.

"Yup! Just on the loo, gimme a sec!" An irish accent called from the direction of the toilet.

I pulled on my shoes and coat and waited for the boys.

In a matter if minutes we were all ready to go, even Zayn and Louis, who were arguing about who won the game of FIFA.

I threw the car keys at Harry,

"Hey, how come I have to drive?" He complained, I just ignored him, smirking. I walked down the drive and opened the car door, hopping into the shotgun seat.

When everyone got into the car Harry started the engine. We drove down the road in silence, anticipating what management wanted a meeting about.

------

**Harrys pov**

I parked the car infront of the familiar building and hopped out.

I could feel the nerves pulsing through me, there is something about meeting with management that makes me nervous. Probably because they could end One Direction with one sentance. We walked into the building. The receptionist at the front desk immediately informed whoever we were seeing that we had arrived.

We sat on the chairs placed outside the door,

"What do you think this is about?" Niall asked.

"Dunno, probably about something we did that got in the press!" Louis answered. A silence set over us, I could tell everyone was thinking hard about whether they had done anything press worthy recently.

The door swung open revealing Caroline, her hair tied in a tight bun and her glasses so low I thought they were going to fall off her nose.

"Come in! Long time no see." She said, once she was seated, she began,

"Well, you are probably wondering why I brought you here today," We nodded.

"Well, Midnight Memories was a complete success. The fans seemed to like the more mature image that you gave through your music, so we want to keep that image up. We have decided that you are to adopted a child, this will not only keep the mature image, but it will show the fans that you are charitable and help out societys struggles."

My mouth dropped, did I hear that right? I couldnt have! Adopting a child? Are they mad? We cant look after a child and keep up our hectic schedules.

I looked over at the other boys, there mouths were also agape.

"Your Joking Right?" I asked astonished.

"Do I look like im joking?" Caroline replied, I gulped and shook my head.

"Good, well now thats settled. I have to talk about arrangements!" she continued,

"I have already rung the local orphanage and have booked an appointment, you will go there at 1:00. Dont be late! It doesnt look good. Whether you choose a boy or a girl is completely up to you. Now I would like to arrange another meeting with you tomorrow, bring the child along. It will be at 10:30am. Now, run along. I have work to do!"

"Uh thanks?" Liam said sounding more like a question.

"Bye Caroline!" Zayn waved at her, she just glared back, man I hate her!
