What a life

Chapter 6

**Daniel's POV**

Ginger obviously had a thing for Ryan. And Ryan likewise. I'm hoping that Cory doesn't develop feelings for Ginger as well...that would be bad for all of them. I need to talk to Ginger otherwise something may happen if she inst warned.

I couldn't help it, I had to have in a sense the "talk" about what was going on. I'm Daddy Danny what do you expect. I looked back at her and there was a blush creeping onto her face as she suddenly took interest in her nails. I think she knew that this was going to be awkward for her, but as her now older brother I already felt protective of her. I just hope that she will understand.

**Gingers POV**

I don't want to talk about this.

I don't want to be having one of the famous Daddy Danny talks.

I like Ryan but Cory acts different around me and I'm just generally confused. Why am I such a blonde?

After looking at my nails for a while I realized that I actually need a manicure. Only like 15 minuets later we pulled up at their place. I gawked at the size and followed the boys up. We walked in and I saw 3 pretty girls giggling and watching a movie while eating ice cream. Daniel cleared his throat.

"Ginger I would like you to meet Danielle, Perrie, Eleanor. Girls this is my new sister Ginger."

They all jumped up and ran over to me. They were obviously excited to have yet another girl around.

"OMG we have another girl to hang out with."

"Yeah and we could go out for manis and pedis later some of us need it." Perrie giggled she was joking but we all really did need them. We all start to giggle and the boys look at us like we are speaking another language. I totally forgot about the "talk" and was about to go hang with the girls as someone grabbed my elbow.

"And where do you think your going"

"To hang with the girls, What does it look like" To be honest I was missing girl activity. Its been only the boys since the accident. Danny gave me one look and I felt really stupid. I had forgotten about the talk. He lead me up some stairs and into a beautiful large room (that I was informed was to be mine). I sat on the bed that was very fluffy and soft. I laughed to myself thinking that problems would come around but sleeping wasn't going to be one of them. I started to day dream but Danny's words snapped me out of it.

"You realize that Ryan fancies you."

"Yeah I know. "

"Well I can tell you Fancy him back. But I can also see that one of the other boys are trying their luck."

I look back at Danny in total shock. I didn't know what to think, my body started leaning back to flop down and look at the ceiling. I hated it when two boys liked me at once, it happened before almost a year ago. I remember it like it only just happened.....

"GINGER CHOOSE ME OR HIM"

"WHO DO YOU LIKE BETTER. Answer the damn question and this will be over"

I only looked at either boy and saw that each had been fighting. Both had bloody noses and bruises and black eyes. I hated to see people with wounds like that and tears filled my eyes as both boys cornered me against a tree. I saw a tree limb low enough for me to jump to and quickly I made my way up the tree to look at the boys who had gathered a crowed around them. Some idiot had given the weapons to use. I couldn't even look as they beat each other and sliced one another. I hear both breathing heavy and I look down. Why are boys so stupid?

This seemed like a scene from a bad teenage romance movie. I had enough of this foolishness.

"Stop.......STop......STOP" my breath came out jagged and I could hardly talk at all.

I jumped down and tried pushed them apart. They both looked terrible and beat and swollen. That wasn't my smartest move to walk into the middle of their fight. Obviously they wouldn't stop but they redirected their anger on me instead. After what seemed like forever both of them stopped.

"Pathetic"

"I don't even know why I wasted my time and energy on this garbage"

Both boys left and the crowd dissolved leaving me there broken, bloody, beaten, and trying to call for help.

I came back to reality staring at the ceiling with intensity that make anyone wonder about my thoughts. Tears brimmed my eyes lightly. I don't like it when I cry.... I don't cry, I don't cry, I don't freaking cry. As if I could help it tears ran down my face. Daniel looked worried wondering if he had said anything wrong during his other ramblings that I tuned out of.

"You want to talk about anything?"

I could only shake my head as I let out a sob and cried into my new pillow.I felt his arms pick me up and cradle me gently rocking me and rubbing my back in small circles. He was very comfy and warm. I couldn't help my self and soon enough I had fallen asleep right there in his arms.

**Daniel's POV**

After I told her about what I observed she had plopped on the bed. As she stared at the ceiling her face became stiff as if she was deep in thought. It was almost scary like she had seen something that perplexed her. When she snapped out of it, It dawned on me that she wasn't listening to anything I was saying or she was upset about something I said. In a swift motion she flipped over and started crying into her pillow and being a brother I picked her up as she had tears streaming down her face.

"Do you want to talk about it?"

She only shook her head and cried into my chest. After what was about 5 minuets she fell asleep. Carefully I placed her under her blanket and tucked her in.

"Be careful of Ryan and Cory's feelings." I warned the sleeping Ginger as I snuck out quietly and went down stairs.

"Where's Ginger Danny?"

"Ryan calm down she sleeping. She had been crying and.........."

"SHE WAS CRYING!?!?!?!"

"That's what I just said and don't you dare ask why cause she didn't want to say.

If only I knew what was going through her head. I need to be there for her and it showed in her actions. She will come out of her shell soon enough. When ever she's ready I will be here to guide her.
