Home For a Heart

The Gang

We walked together to the hotel.

i looked up in awe.

"wow this place is amazing!" i said breathless.

"Keep close okay?" Harry said pulling up his hood  and putting his sun glasses on.

We glided silently into the hotel.

He punched in numbers on the elevator, and stepped in side.

i stood there looking at him.

"hurry! step in!!" he said motioning me in.

I carefully got in looking around. 

"Ive never been in one of these." i said looking at him.

"don't worry, its not scary." he said removing his disguise with a smile.

He reached over pressing "32" into the key pad.

The elevator lurched upward.

i gasped, reaching for his hand. 

i held it tight.

His mouth curved into a smile.

It came to a stop and we walked into the hallway.

he grabbed his key and pushed into the door knob.

we stepped inside and he threw his keys with a "clink" onto the counter.

"Here bring your bags over here." he pointed to the bedroom.

"wait...you mean...you want me to stay here?" i asked nervously.

he nodded with a smile.

"oh I'm sorry i cant i don't know you, you don't know me...we know nothing about each other!!" i said flopping on the couch with a sigh.

"alright, fair enough." he said nodding sitting next to me. "so why don't we get to know each other?" he asked grinning.

"..alright." i said quietly.

"I'm Kali Thompson, I came here from the U.S. for a better life. My mother abonded me when i was 3." i began softly. Harry looked at me with a sad expression. "and my step mother abused me, and she told me i couldn't live with her any more....so i came here. as far away as i could get." i said nervously. 

He looked at the bruises on my arms.

Harry put an arm around me. "I didnt have much friends back home, and we werent very wealthy at all." i said.

"I'm sorry to hear that." he whispered.

i shook my head, "So uh what about you?" i said changing the subject.

He smiled. 

"I'm Harry Edward Styles. I'm in the band One Direction, you know with Liam Payne Niall Horan Louis Tomlinson and Zayn Malik?" he questioned me. "I'm a singer and i tour the world with my friends and my manager Paul Higgins."

i shook my head, "No i have never heard of you, but don't take it into offense, i didn't have money to buy C.D's." i said quietly.

He smiled, "thats alright, I cant wait for you to meet the boys, they should be here soon." he said looking at his watch.

A burst of laughter suddenly filled the room.

"Yeah mate! That was great, best meal i eve-" 4 boys stood in front of me suddenly quiet.

"Um, Harry.....Whose this?" a boy said pointing to me.

"Come on man, you've got to stop bringing fans in our apartment!" a blond haired boy said.

Harry stood. 

"Kali, meet Louis, Zayn, Niall, and Liam." he pointed to each one.

They didnt look very happy. 

"Guys this is Kali, shes from the U.S, and shes not a fan, she needs a place to stay." he shrugged.

Zayn smiled, "We'll its nice to meet you Kali." he said shaking my hand.

"What if Paul doesn't let her stay?" Niall said looking concerned.

"i guess i should just go, thank you for your offer." i said quickly standing up.

i grabbed my bags. 

"Kali wait no-" 

I reached for the door and opened it.

A man stood blocking my path.

i jumped.

"I'm sorry but did i miss something? Since when are girls aloud into our apartment?" the man said looking at Harry. "She leaves. Come one say good bye to her." 

"Paul! Please she needs a place to stay shes homeless, shes had a hard life, how can you tell her to go?" he stuck his lower lip out making a pout.

Paul sighed, "Alright, just for a while.But i don't want any other girls in here. she is the only one aloud okay? Get to sleep we have a big day tomorrow." he said heading into his bedroom.

"Welcome to the family!" Louis said holding his arms wide hugging me. 

The other boys smiled.

"thank you all so much!" i said hugging them tight. 

"I finally have a home." i whispered.

"here ill show you where you can sleep." harry said slipping his hand into mine.

i blushed. 

He walked down the hallways and turned to a door.

He opened it and inside was a bed, but it already had clothes and a suit case inside.

"i don't want to take someones room from them!" i said looking at him.

"No, no, this is my room." he said walking in and flopping onto the bed.

my cheeks turned a bright red, "you mean...." 

He sat up, "Oh no! not together!" he laughed rubbing his neck, "You can sleep in the bed, ill sleep in my sleeping bag." he said.

"oh i cant take your bed Thats so rude of me!" i protested.

"Hey love don't worry, I don't mind, i can sleep any where!" he said smiling. 

I nodded and grabbed my bag, "I'm going to go change into my pajamas okay?" 

"Alright." he said searching through the closest looking for his sleeping bag.

I went down the hallways searching for the bathroom.

Finally i found it.

i locked the door and changed out of my clothes into my pjs. 

i looked in the mirror.

My hair was in a tangled mess and i had dirt smeared on my face.

i sighed and grabbed soap out of my bag and washed my face.

i looked at my hair. 

i quickly braided it trying to make it look more manageable.

i cant believe i looked so bad infront of all them.

In front of Harry.

I returned and walked back into the room to see the bed made, and harry sprawled out on the floor with his sleeping bag.

"Crawl in!" he said.

I jumped in the bed and laid my head on the pillow.

Harry smiled at me from on the floor. 

"good night Kali, Sweet dreams." he said with a brilliant smile and clicked the light.

the pillow smelled like his cholone.

i smillded to my self.

i closed my eyes and fell into the darkness.
