Niall's pov:

When I went up the elevator I started hearing a voice it was a barely an audible whisper and what I made out from it was "I'm not supposed to feel, I'm worthless, i'm weak, I'm" I shut those voices down but I realize they weren't mine but they were Fours. I look up a to see that she was uttering something and no one else was hearing it she probably didn't realize she was saying it. I start singing little things to block out that voice to prove them otherwise. I never knew that she had pain I just thought she was...nevermind. I was wrong I shouldn't of went with my first impression of her. I continue singing but then Zayn starts to sing along with me and Tink was looking right into Zayn's eyes with a smile she loved it I could tell. I could tell that she liked Zayn a little but why is she interested it's not that there is anything wrong with Zayn I wish I was him since he is good looking unlike myself. Plus it's not like anyone could resist Zayn's high notes.

I continue singing the song but louder hoping that it would reach four if that's what she was actually thinking about herself. Because I thought she was special and strong and confident when I first met her, I thought she was brave and fearless. I thought that she was impossible to break since she seemed so cold and closed off...but I guess I was wrong. I stop singing because I look at her pained face looking as if she was about to cry just from me singing. She had her hands over her ears, her eyes they held so much pain I wanted to hug her I wanted to hold her. Is this what everyone else feels when I cry like there the whole world is breaking something that no one could stand or even live with. Or is it that she thinks i'm a bad singer and that i'm annoying? Am I really that bad? I get a headache from trying so hard. Considering that this was Neverland maybe something magical happened that made us connect for a moment. Yeah, something magical brought us to our own little meeting place what other reason could there have been. It may have been freaky but I am glad that it happened I want to help this girl...and I will.

I will put the broken pieces back together, and if she is missing a few pieces I can lend her a few broken parts that might fit. When Four got out of the elevator or 'tree door' she looked weakened and paler than she was in the elevator. I was going to speak up but I was scared to, she might be broken but she is still scary and could kill me within a blink of an eye I think there was a reason why Hook was scared of her whether or not he knew she was a girl or not. Four then spoke up she said in a soft voice that she tried to make strong but failed miserably at it. "Hey if you guys want anything to eat the kitchen is to (damn this girl is smart she took care of the main issue) the right when you take the main hallway, and for sleeping arrangements, Tink will show you the guests rooms. Zayn and Liam left with Tink and Lily, while Louis and Harry, went with Daphne, and Sophie....

Four's pov

I see Niall waiting patiently with his head turned to the side trying to avoid my gaze but I speak up "Hey" I say softly since I am still recovering from that good singer's trauma.

"Sorry about what happened in the elevator, it wasn't because you were a bad singer, it was something else..."

Niall looked expectant like he wanted me to say what was the something else but I turn my head. I wait a moment before saying "So uh this way" it was awkward but I still lead him to the kitchen my second favorite place in this house.

When I reach the pantry I ask "What would you like?"

He answered softly it was cute it was adorable how tired he sounded "Um do u have Oreos?"

Who am I kidding I don't think of him as a cute little kid I think I like him but that can't be, how would I really know?...My heart. I grab the double stuffed Oreo's he throws me a look I answer shyly "There my favorite snack" I blush as well I quickly turn away and put my hood back up since I lowered it when I was in the elevator, luckily my cloak covers my face from how big it is. I grab a glass then go into my fridge to get some milk. What? I go grocery shopping by using magic it isn't hard.
