Addie - Harry Styles

Mirrors

"She closed the door
She hides behind the face nobody knows
She feels her skin touch the floor
She wants to fight
Her eyes are tired, nobody's on her side
She wants to feel like she did before"

Addie:

I was shaken out of my slumber, groggily, I moaned, angry at my tiredness and to whoever wanted my attention.

"Princess, I don't know what time you have school but it's 5 A.M." a croaky voice spoke

"Oh-uhh- I start at 9." I chuckled at the stupid question with my eyes still closed.

Oh shit, who does the voice belong too. My eyes shot open as I jumped up looking around

I relaxed when I saw the familiar curly hair, mr styles was next to me.

then the familiar realisation hit me from last night, thank god he was there, this is embarrassing, ill be 17 soon, i should have a job and pay for my own things and afford my own place, after my exams ill get an apprenticeship somewhere or a full time job and live on my own, at least no one can kick me out of my own place.

"princess what are you thinking about" mr styles said bringing me closer, he was warm and cosy. my eyes instantly shut as i embraced his arms

"just when i get older, i don't have a job so i cant pay for things, i cant afford to look after myself, i'm not ready to grow up, i just want it to be back to normal where i was 7 and all i had to worry about was who i was going to sit with at recess or what ice cream flavour i wanted, was i a bad child? am i really a horrible person that my own mother doesn't love me?" i whimpered

"of course not Addie, i bet you were the sweetest angel you could have been, i don't know your mother but personally she sounds like she has got some problems of her own and she thinks you're a problem but deep down she still loves you, you're her daughter she has to love you."

"you really think so daddy?" i question, tears poured down my face, did i believe him? i'm not to sure but i felt like he cared.

"i'm pretty sure i know so baby" he muttered kissing my forehead

groggily i sat up and looked at him, smiling i leant over to give him a kiss

"can we leave at 8:30 so i have enough time to get my books out of my locker."

"of course princess but as for now its 5:07, i can get you up at 7 if thats okay, i just wanna cuddle and snooze."

i nodded and agreed with him, placing one last kiss on his lips i leaned down so my head was resting on his chest, hearing his heart beat my eyes started to drift back to sleep.

.......

a buzzing sound was aggravating me, awaking from my peaceful warm sleep, i looked up to the noise and it was a phone buzzing, it definitely wasn't mine as it was a brand new black iphone, the cushion underneath me moved, startling me, realisation hit me once again as i recognised it to be mr styles.

"shit" i heard him curse under his breath

he quickly got up leaving me under the warm sheets, i looked to the clock on the wall and it read 11:39

oh shit, i'm late for school.

i got up and ran after daddy, into the bathroom, staring at him.

"is it even worth me going to school i'm already almost 3 hours late." i try, not feeling like showing up late to my class, embarrassing myself.

"it's not that princess, i have a meeting at 12:30, we have to leave immediately." he spoke walking out of the bathroom, i quickly splashed my face with water, tamed my hair with the comb on the side and brushed my teeth with the random toothbrush on the side.
