Save Me (One Direction Fanfic)

Chapter 2

SANDY POV

"Give me your old school love right now
You know that only you and me alone...

As long as I'm here
As long as you love me
Give me that old school love right now

As long as I'm here
As long as you love me
Give me that old school love right now"

I smiled softly as my fingers strummed my old, practically broken guitar. The words of Ed Sheeran's newest song flowed out of my mouth as though they were written for me. I looked up and nodded in thanks as the gathered crowed started to throw some money into the small duffle bag that was seated in front of me. One guy actually went over and bought me a sandwich, making me feel obliged to sing a thank you in the same melody of the song.

When I had finished the crowed clapped before they slowly started to disperse, that was when I heard someone call my name. "SANDY!" My head shot up as I looked around, not many people around here bothered to know what my name was, they just came for the music and that's it. I stood on my tippytoes, that was when I spotted him. My jaw clenched as my cousin continued to run towards me. I bent down and grabbed my duffle bag before I took off running. "SANDY! SANDY WAIT!" He called out, but there was no way in hell I was going to talk to him, not after years of waiting for him to contact me, to save me.

I turned my head, seeing Niall and his bandmates only meters behind me. But before I had met Danny I was living on the streets, which had given me the advantage of being able to run a lot faster the I used to. I turned a corner, seeing Danny's house right in front of me, I was meters from the front door when I felt arms wrap around my waist and pull me backwards. "DANNY!" I screamed, kicking at my cousin as his startled and confused bandmates watched on. "Sandy calm down!" He shouted, his voice bringing tears to my eyes as I continued to fight. "Niall let go of me! Get the fuck off!" That's when the door flew open and Danny came storming out. "What the HELL are you doing?!" He shouted, so loud that Niall and his mates cringed back. "I came to see my cousin, what are YOU doing?" Before I could even function Danny had punched Niall so hard that his grip on me loosened as he fell back to the floor.

One of his bandmembers, Harry I think his name was, came running over to his friend before he stood up, matching Danny's height. "Don't you DARE touch my friend!" Harry growled, shoving Danny. I watched as my boyfriend clenched his jaw tightly, but my gaze soon moved over to Harry. His eyes were focused on me, but they were no longer angry, they held a soft sort of emotion that I couldn't quite gather. His head tilted to the side slightly, making a few curls fall across his emerald green eyes, his face was so captivating that I lost my train of thought. "Hey!" I winced slightly as Danny grabbed my arm tightly, pulling me back. He looked between me and Harry for a few seconds before he threw another hard punch towards the curly haired boy. Harry stumbled back and Danny practically threw me inside, the last thing I heard him say was. "Stay the hell away from what is mine." Before he slammed the door shut and turned to me.

It was then that I hated my cousin even more, because of him and his bandmate, I knew I was in big trouble.
