TORN (A Niall Horan Fan Fiction)

CHAPTER SIXTEEN~ Let The Cat Out Of The Bag

-Zayn's Point of View-

I felt my heart pounding against my chest. Honestly I'm not ready to here what she's about to tell me. I mean did something happen to Niall or.......or is she about to tell me about her bruise? I put the phone back to my ear and I could hear her crying and sighing as she tried to stop crying.

"Uh, OK hold on one second" I said before she screamed out "No!"

"What's wrong?"

"Don't get Liam. I want to tell him myself okay."

"Okay but can I get Harry? We've been worried sick about you since I saw that bruise." I heard her sigh and Niall ask "What bruise? You have a bruise?"

"Yea go and get him. I want him to hear this. Get Louis too."

"Okay" I went to the kitchen where Louis and Harry were drinking tea. "Hey guys can you come in here for a while. Its important." They gave me confused looks but came along anyways. I sat down on the couch, Harry sat down next to me and Louis took a seat on the floor. I placed the phone in my lap and put it on speaker. Liam was asleep and it wasn't likely for him to wake up anytime soon.

"Okay Lia we're ready." I told her and I heard her sigh one more time before talking.

"Okay.... do you remember when you saw that bruise on my arm?"

"Yeah.. what about it?"

"What I told you was a lie" I heard Lia begin to cry and Niall whisper "Shhhh it's okay baby. It's okay"

"I know"

"You know?" I nodded knowing that she couldn't see me.

"Yeah I know, a nail makes a cut and I didn't see a cut anywhere, I just saw that big bruise."

"Oh well that happened..... a day before you guys got here."

Louis scooted closer to the phone and mumbled "How?"

"Well I was with Drew and we were watching E! News and they showed a picture of you and I from my birthday. They were saying how you found a new girl and Drew was crushed. I told him not to get mad because that picture was from february and that you and I are just friends but he let his anger get the best of him."

Harry picked up the phone and asked, " So what did he do?"

"He...He...He um...He Threw a 15 pound weight at me. I tried to dodge it but I wasn't quick enough and it hit my arm. I went to the doctor and they just said not to use that arm too much because it was sprained, it was close to breaking though."

"Wait which picture did they show?"

"Do you remember when we went to see Ed Sheeran for my birthday and you held me on your shoulders to see, then one of your fans took a picture of us. Then we saw it on Twitter and Tumblr?"

"Uh yea yea I remember that"

"Well that's the picture they showed."

"Lia, how long has this been going on?"

"Um since last year when you guys went on tour."

"Lia why've you been letting him do this to you? Why didn't you tell us? We would've stopped this."

"I'm sorry I just couldn't tell anyone okay. He told me that if I told on him, he would hurt me worst than he already did. I was afraid"

"I knew it! I knew he was abusing you Lia! Why were you still-"

"Excuse me? Who's hurting Lia?" We all turned around to see Liam standing above us with rage written all over his face.

"Uh Liam calm down mate we're gonna-"

"Give me the phone now!" Liam snatched the phone away from us and I could hear Lia crying harder and harder through the speaker.

"So he's been abusing you and you didn't tell anyone?! What is wrong with you?! Wait don't say anything just pack your stuff because you're coming home so we can fix this, today." Liam threw down the phone and stomped off to his room.

"Lia are you still there?" I crouched down to pick up the phone and put it to my ear. I heard her crying and saying, "Liam I'm sorry! I'm so sorry! I was scared!"

"Lia....Lia.... Lia calm down okay. He's just a little upset. Don't cry I'll make sure that he calls you okay. I promise."

"Thank you Zayn. I'm sorry I didn't tell you before."

"Its okay. I love you Lil sis."

"Love you too Zayn. I'll talk to you later."

"Okay bye"

"Bye" I hung up the phone and ran my hands through my already rough quiff. What is going on? I mean what sick twisted bastard would do something like that to someone like Lia? Someone so sweet and gentle like Lia. I mean what could Lia have done that was so bad that she had to be beaten. I was snapped back into reality by the slamming of the front door. I looked outside to see Liam driving off and into the direction of Drew's flat. Shït. I just hope he doesn't do anything crazy.
