One Choice (1D Fanfic)

Chapter 4: The Truth

As I opened my eyes I noticed that I was not in Louis's room anymore. I noticed Niall sleeping next to me and I finally figured out that we were on the couch in the living room. Taking in all the blank walls I noticed that all the decorations I had put up were gone and the room no longer looked playful. I shifted my head and remembered what had happened before I had looked into Niall's eyes.

I shoved my head into my pillow and cried. I hated seeing everything so glum and all the boys being in pain. As the tears ran to the pillow from my eyes and my body shook with anger I heard Niall shift on the couch. All of a sudden his hand started to rub my back and he said, "Joy, it's okay. You're okay." with a soft tone. I looked up and glared at him. My tears had become thicker and my vision was blurred. "Niall why are all of you so upset?" I cried. "Joy nothing is wrong. You just have... things you never knew of until now." Niall sighed. 

Louis slowly walked in the living room and I pushed my head back into the pillow. I slowed my breathing and calmed myself down. I shifted my body and sat up on the couch but Niall's hand just moved with me instead of moving away. Niall cuddled closer to me as he slowly inched his arm around my waist. I quickly rejected his arm and slid away from Niall remembering Harry. He looked at me with a hurt face and then looked at Louis. 

"Hey guys she's up." Louis called into the kitchen. Shortly after Louis's announcement Zayn and Liam walked in and sat between me and Niall on the couch. "Harry come on get in here. We don't have all day." Zayn yelled.

Harry walked into the living room slowly and his hair was a complete mess. His eyes were blood shot and filled with tears, and he looked like he hadn't slept in days. Harry's clothes hadn't been changed since the day of Louis's party and I had no clue how long that had been. Harry looked at me, and turned towards me; but then he turned back and sat on the farthest end away from me. I looked down at the ground as I felt the tears welling up inside of me.

I looked up at the row of boys and screamed, "What the hell is wrong with you!? Why are you acting like this!?" The tears started pooring down my face before I could even try to hold it in. "Joy calm down. Things are happening and now that you know, some things are going to be different." Liam soothed. "Yeah Joy. We're going to get through this together." Louis said softly. "Joy we're going to help you through this and be there the entire way. Things will get better." Zayn said as he put his hand on my shoulder. "Joy nothing's wrong." Niall said with tears forming in his eyes. Harry just cringed as I looked at him which made me feel like all that we had was for nothing.

My eyes burned as the tears kept flowing and I studdered, "What... what is happening? and why? Why is this happening?"  "Joy don't cry please, it's going to be ok." Liam's voice soothed. "No it's not! It's not okay! I'm not okay! I have no clue what the hell is going on and it is affecting me as well as it is all of you!" I yelled as the tears kept pouring down my face. "Tell me please. I can't stand it anymore." I cried. 

"Joy are you sure you are ready for this?" Zayn's troubled voice sang. "I don't care just tell me!" I yelled. "We all have powers!" Harry shouted out with pain and anger in his eyes. All the boys looked up after Harry's comment and nodded.

"Wait so I have powers too?" I sighed. "Yes, Joy all six of us have different powers... Yet there are many more people in this world that have them too; and not all of them use their powers for good." Zayn replied. "All of us have completely different powers? Every one on this earth who has powers have completely different powers than anyone else?" I quickly questioned. "Joy, some of us have the same powers but each of us have different mastery levels of our powers. So for example me and Louis may have the power to move objects with our minds but one of us could be better at it than the other. That's why we train, so all of us can be at the same level all the time and it will then be easier to protect everyone and have each others back's." Liam stated proudly.

A tear strode down my cheek, "So I'll never be the same?" I cried. "No, No, NO!" Niall cried, "You can't change! I told you not to!" He yelled as tears ran down his face and he shoved his face into Zayn's shoulder. "I don't want to be any different than I was before this happened!" I pouted. "Calm down Joy you won't change if you don't want to. You will stay the same. You will just have powers and know how to use them for protection and only protection." Louis said as he looked at me.

Niall lifted his head stood up and walked over to where I was sitting. "Joy don't change." He said as he cried and then sat down next to me and grabbed my hand. "I won't I promise. I promise Niall." I said to him.

"Joy after we all tell you how things happened, what powers each of us has, and any other details, we have to start your training so you and we know what you're capable of." Zayn said. "Okay... Is training hard?" I asked as I hung my head low. "It's every day Joy, to keep you good at what your capable of and to make you better and stronger. It can be tedious and very difficult or it can be easy and boring. It all depends on the day." Liam stated.

I looked over at Harry and he glared back at me. I stared at his once perfect smile which was now a frown. His eyes looked like they burned and every time he blinked a tear fell from his eyes. As I looked into his eyes I remembered Louis's party and the vision I had seen. Tears started forming in my eyes as I thought about Harry being with a different girl. I loved him I didn't want to see him with anyone but me, our love for each other was at least not over for me if it wasn't already over for him.

"Do I get to choose who I want to tell their story first?" I asked because I knew I didn't care who went first as long as Harry was last. That ment I got to talk to him more than the others and ask him more questions. "Sorry Joy, we're going to tell you in the order of who's had their powers the longest to the shortest." Zayn said.

"Okay then..." I sighed, "Who's had their powers the longest?" I asked.
