Through The Dark ~ Liam Payne Daughter

Adopted By Liam Payne

HALLIE'S POV

I woke up at miss Canines orphanage. Where i live.

I share a room with five other girls. bunk beds only.

I walked outside in my PJs to the park. Its where i always sit and think. Sometimes i go in the woods behind them. They're are peaceful. I also love the animal's there. Its so cute.

I grabbed the ball and ran to the trees. someday i feel that if i run far enough this... all of it will be behind me and i will find a new way. A new home.

As i ran i felt the breeze in my hair. The chill on my toes as i ran i small gym shoes. I was wearing blue and orange PJs. My hat was orange too.

Every leaf or branch that touched my cheek or legs didn't bother me. I was in my own little world. My place. My freedom. I spun around jumping over stumps and dodging trees. I knew this forrest like the back of my hand. After being here for a year and a half and with Miss Canine not noticing when I'm gone except diner and breakfast, this has been my home. Im here more than i am The orphanage.

If i ran a certain direction for miles, id still see some trees. But if you go east of the orphanage, about 3/4 a mile is a town and i hang out there all the time. Everyone knows me and knows to protect me. Also everyone knows that if miss Canine knew i was out here i wouldn't be allowed anymore.

I ran until my little heart was content. i ran until i couldn't run anymore. i run just to leave. Sometimes i wish my little legs could take me beyond. I am a very imaginative, weak and small girl but mature a bit for my age of 11.

When i came across the small road between the trees and the town i crossed it. Walking. I was to tired to run.

I walked to the donut shop across from the road. Stan, the man who owns the place gives me two free donuts and a hot coco each time i visit.

I walk into the donut shop and sit in my usual seat next to the counter. I sat there and listened to the music from the radio! When my favorite song came on i sang quietly. I didn't know the song title or even who sung it. We don't have television or phones for the orphans at the house. Here there is a small tv that has the news. Thats where i watch the news. Its the only channel its turned to.

I sang my favorite lyric that i remember from the song.

" don't burn out

Even if you scream and shout

It'll come back to you

And i'll be here for you

Oh i will carry you over fire ad water for your love

And i will hold you closer, hope your heart is strong enough

And when the night is coming down on you

We will find a way through the dark" its the only part i memorized. I loved this song. I think it's called Through the dark. It sang me. Literally.

I was in a dark place, but the difference is i have no one to help me through the dark. No one to hold me close or carry me over water and fire. No one to me there for me.

Thats why i love the song. 'Through the dark'.

"Hey sweetie!" Stan came and handed me my donuts and hot coco. "Thanks Stan!" I smiles and he laughed.

"Anytime Hailey!" He smiled and walked to the back to fill the others orders.

I took my journal out of my satchel bag. I have to hide it in the trees so no one finds it. I wrap it in my satchel with my personal belongings and small camera. It goes in a small hole i dug and put a rock over. I wrote 'H' in black on the rock so i can see it if i ver forget. Most of the time i don't but i can't risk losing it or another kid stealing them.

I open my journal to a new page and begin to write. Its nothing important. I do it at least once a week. I draw if its important or something i want to remember. My older brother taught me to draw. Im really good now.

I start to draw a man near these boys. He looks interesting. Im weird like that! If i find someone i think is hard to draw i do it!

I start at the frame of his face to his eyes and brown side mo hawk hair.

When i start to finish the last piece detail of his hair i look up. He is not there?

"Thats really good is it me?" A dark and husky voice speaks above me.

I look up and see the man I'm drawing. I nod shyly.

"Can i sit?" he asks. I look over at Stan who is watching and he nods so i nod.

"Do you like to draw in your Pajama's?" He chuckles. I look down and realize I'm still in them. I blush.

I shiver as the cold prickles my skin.

"Can i see that?" I nod and turn it to him. He smiles and admires the features of the drawing.

"This is really good if you don't mind can you draw me one? I'll sign yours in return!" He smiled. I knew i had a confused look on my face. yeah i'll draw it but why would it matter if he signed it or not?

"Sure? but you have to sign it just tell me your name!" i smiled. I took my notebook back and grabbed my journal and ripped a page out to draw for him.

"Liam!" He perked. I looked at him.

"My name is Liam." He smiled and i continue to draw him like i did before just the pose he is in is different. I look over at his four friends and they see me. I turn my face to the paper and continue to draw hoping they didn't notice.

Liam grabbed the journal and signed his name at the bottom in a way where the L spread across the IA and M.

I finished his facial features and face structure and started on his stick up hair.

"Looks great so far!" He smiled as i looked up at his hair once again.

I shivered again from the coldness. The PJs where only short sleeve.

I felt something go over me and jumped up with fear.

"Its ok i gave you my jacket! You can keep it! You looked very cold and it is enough to pay for the picture. I thanked him and finished his drawing.

"Here!" I shyly handed it to him and cuddled up in his jacket for warmth. Or i guess MY jacket.

He left after taking a picture with the paper and posting it on what i think is twitter?

"Hey lads look at this amazing drawing!" He brung it over to them as i got up.

"Thanks for the donuts Stan!" He said 'don't mention it' and i left cuddled up in Liam's jacket. He was nice!

I ran back into the woods running until i came across the rock and out my stuff and the jacket in the small hole.

I ran back quickly to Miss Canines house for girls.

"BE READY GIRLS!" She yelled. I climbed over the fence and sat beside the tree near the playground...

LIAM'S POV

"Man thats awesome!" Niall yelled looking at the picture only a little girl who looked about 10.

"Did that girl over there do it?" Zayn asked referring to the girl i sat with.

"Yeah!" I looked over to her and she wasn't there?

I walked out side and saw a small figure slip into the woods. I knew it was her because if my jacket...

"Liam we need to hurry! We gotta be home by 1:00pm!" Harry said and i walked into the car off to Miss Caine house for girls.

I was gonna adopt a daughter!
