Malia's POV:

As my eyes fluttered open, I saw my mom and brother sitting next to me. I tried to sit up from the bed i was on but it was useless as pain shot through my whole body.

"W- What happened? Where am I?"

There was a brief silence before Dylan spoke up.

"You had an anxiety attack and fainted" He said with full concern in his eyes

I turned to the door as a man with a white coat walked in the room.

"Hello young lady" he said with a smile on his face. I weakly smiled at him as he turned to my mother. I noticed his smile faded as he moved his head to the side signaling my mum to follow him out the room. I watched as they walked out and close the door behind them.

I could barely hear what was being said on the other side of the door but i was able to make out some words which sounded like they came from the man.

"I'm sorry to say this but your daughter has been diagnosed with depression" He paused

"But we can fix it, she just needs to be treated appropriately. For now we can give her anti depressive pills and she should go to therapy"

I felt a warm tear roll down my cheek but i quickly wiped it off as my mum walked in. I noticed her eyes were bloodshot as if she had been crying.

"Come on honey, i know its your first time but there will be other kids in there too" my mom said

I pushed the door wide open and stepped out the car. I turned to see her and slightly smiled at her and closed the door. I turned to face the building in front of me as I reluctantly stepped forward and continued walking towards the front door. I swung the door open and walked into what seemed an office.

"Hello, may i help you?" I heard a young woman say

"Uh.. yeah, wheres room 264?"

"Are you Malia Romero? They're waiting for you"

I expected her to give me directions to the room but instead she took hold of my hand and walked me down a hall and into a room that had '264' on the door. She opened the door and moved to the side giving me space to walk in. There was about 10-12 other teenagers each sitting on a chair in a circle.

"Hello Miss Romero! Please take a seat anywhere in the circle" A tall woman instructed. I grabbed an empty chair from a corner and placed it in between two girls.

"Hi I'm Denise, and that's Faith" the girl to my right said pointing to the girl at my left

"Malia, nice to meet you" I introduced myself

***

After what seemed to be an hour, the therapist finally let us take a beak, so I decided to text my mom and let her know how things were going.

To: Mum

Hey mom! just wanted to let you know that everything is going just great! I'll walk home. I'll see you in an hour or so

Not long after that she replied.

From: Mum

That's great honey! I have to work late again but if you get hungry there's left overs in the fridge. Oh and your brothers staying over at his friends house. Don't stay up too late.

As i shoved my phone back into my back pocket i heard the door swing open. I noticed people turn to the direction from where the noise came from. There was a tall male standing firm in the doorway. He had brown curls and quite messy might i add, beautiful captivating green eyes and seemed strong. He was quite attractive too. My thoughts were interrupted as i heard the Therapist speak.

"What a surprise! I'm glad you could join us Styles. Please take a seat, we're about to resume"

He glanced around the room searching for a chair. Once he found one, he quickly grabbed it and placed it across from where I was sitting. I looked at him and noticed he was starring at me with a smirk on his face. He slowly stood up and made his way towards me.

"Whats your name love?" he asked

"M-Malia" I stuttered

He laughed at my nervous tone. He took a seat next to me. I looked down at my hands, my fingers becoming more interesting at the moment. I suddenly felt a large hand touch my left knee. I looked at the male, smirking at me. His hand slowly moving up my thigh. I gasped at his straight-forward actions.

"I'm Harry, nice to meet you" He said

I quickly stood up and took a few steps back. He then did the same, I felt so small compared to his tall figure, towering over me. I heard him chuckle, I sighed in relief as he walked back to his seat.

***

"That's all for today guys. Next meeting is on Friday but we don't start until 8:30" the therapist lastly announced

I walked out the building adjusting my eyes to the dark streets and lack of light there was out side. I heard heavy foot steps approaching me but i kept on walking any ways.

After a few minutes i could still here someone following me so i slowly turned to face the person following me but I felt two large hands grabbing my waist and pushing me to the side of a building and slammed me to the wall. I winced in pain, my eyes shut.

"Hello love" I heard the person speak. The voice seemed familiar. I slowly opened my eyes, afraid of who I would see.
