**NIALLS POV**

I skipped along the sidewalk looking around for Liam, it wasn't hard to find him. He was in the coffee shop again with his girlfriend. I ran in screaming.

"LIAM!!" He practically jumped out of his seat in shock whipping around.

"What?!" He looked at me and walked over.

"Oh hey! You nearly gave me a heart attack!" I shook my head as people stared at me and whispered. Arseholes, every one of them.

"I'm sorry about not showing yesterday, I got put into the dark room because I had an episode, what they like to call it." He gave me a funny look. Opps didn't mean to say that..

"What I mean is... well.. before we even try to become friends I guess I have to tell you what's wrong with me." Hopefully this doesn't ruin everything.

He nodded.

"You're pretty straight forward, huh?" He looked at the girl and pointed towards a table, she nodded.

"Let's sit down." He said sitting at the table he pointed at, I sat down with him, thinking about the right words to choose.

"Well... you see... I'm from- I'm living at the institution up the hill... I'm a patient there. I have been for about 5 years now, I'm 20." I stopped letting him take it in.

"So.. that's why you were talking to yourself?" He questioned, but regret came over his face.

"I'm so sorry I didn't mean to sound mean it's just I saw you talking to yourself on the street before we met." I smiled.

"It's okay. They say I'm getting so much better though!" I nodded.

"I heard they treat their patients not so good.." Liam said concerned.

"Are you okay? Do they treat you well?" He said pointing at the bruise on my forehead. Doesn't he know that crazies hurt themselves?

"Oh I did it. I hit myself a lot. I am a crazy!" I laughed biting my finger.

"EVERYONE SHUT UP!!" a man shouted shooting a gun in the air. I ducked covering my head.

"WHAT THE HELL?!" I shouted back standing up while everyone got down.

"Niall! Get down!" Liam whispered/yelled.

"YOU GET DOWN!!" The man yelled pointing the gun at me. I hope he knows I'm not scared.

I walked towards him putting my hands up.

"There's no need to do this. All you're going to do is get in trouble. End up in jail." The man put the gun to my head.

"SHUT THE FUCK UP!!" I clinched my jaw trying to calm myself. Only my parents told me to do that. I looked at him my nostrils flared and I put my hands down balling up my fist.

"Pull it. Pull the trigger." I growled through the teeth.

"OH I WILL!!" He went to pull the trigger but I grabbed his wrist, hard making him drop the gun and snap, I broke his wrist.

___

After all the chaos I was considered a hero. I don't think so.

Me and Liam had a long talk and we ended up at his house talking for a long time, I ended up falling asleep on the couch. Surprising I know, I was tired.

I just blacked out.

"Stupid boy." My father spat at me.

"Move!" He threw a beer bottle at me. One of his friends walked over smiling.

"Is it okay if I take his virginity?" He said in a dark voice.

"Go on you love birds!" My dad laughed. What's a virginity? The man led me to my parents bedroom and threw me on the bed. What is he doing? I asked myself as he unbuckled his pants.

"Take off your clothes dumb shit!" He yelled taking his shirt and pants off. My clothes? Why? I don't want to get naked in front of him!

"TAKE THEM OFF!" He screamed causing me to immediately take off my shirt and pants, left in my spiderman underwear. He came over to me with his private part flopping around.

"Gross!" I said covering my eyes. He sat next to me messing with my underwear.

"You'll love it."

I shot up from another memory and started screaming and crying.

"LEAVE ME ALONE!!" I choked out hitting myself in the head. Liam jumped awake from the floor.

"WHATS HAPPENING?!" he yelled looking at me.

I ran up into his bathroom that he showed me earlier and slammed the door locking it. I sat on the toilet crying hysterically as I spotted it from the corner of my eye. I looked at the razor clearing tears out of my eyes. It takes the pain away, I remember.

I picked shakily picked it up and set it on my, now healed scars and lashed at my wrist, crying remembering the horrible memories.

Liam banged on the door.

"Niall! I don't know what's going on! Are you okay?!" I dropped the razor realizing what I've done. My Prince Charming can't see me like this. I quickly covered my wrist with a towel and wiped my tears away, opening the door.

"Niall! Are you okay?!" I nodded as he looked at the towel.

"What happened?" He looked at me then the towel again.

"I-I.. I fell and yeah.. I got scratched." He looked at me in disbelief he slowly went towards the towel with his hand.

"The blood is seeping through." He said lifting the towel up slowly, gasping once he revealed the slashes.

"Niall.. did you...?" I nodded looking down.

"Their not that bad.. I've done worst." I said quietly. He grabbed my clean arm, leading me to his bedroom and sat me on the bed, grabbing a first aid kit.

He cleaned up the blood, not caring if it got on him. After he wrapped the bandage around the cuts, he held my hand looking up at me from on the ground.

"I know we only met 2 days ago, but listen to me. Please, don't ever do this to yourself again. I will help you through whatever is wrong." He nodded waiting for me to agree with him.

"Okay." I sighed.
