I wake up a while later as I feel something wet on my face, something soft underneath me, and people whispering in the background. My eyes flutter open as I laugh and push Tiki as he licks my face before backing off and revealing a blonde, blue eyed boy staring at me. I scream as I sit up and put a hand over my chest, 4 more boys running into the room as Niall falls backwards onto the floor. I look around at them before standing up and falling ontop of Niall, only now remembering my badly sprained ankel. "Crap! Sorry Niall! I didn't mean to scream or fall on you!"

"It's alright love, just get off me before I become a Niall pancake!"

I laugh as I'm helped up and given my crutches before they all bombard me with questions like 'What happened that made you faint?!' or 'I thought you said you had someone to take care of you!'

"Shut up would you?!" I glare at the boys before sighing and sitting down on my bed, my knees pulled up to my chest as I burry my head. I didn't want to talk about it, not yet at least. I cry softly as someone picks me up and puts me on their lap. Instantly, I wrap my arms around their neck and cry even harder as one of the boys softly coos in my ear. 

"It's alright, you don't need to tell us anything if you're not ready." The deep voice sends shivers down my spine as I look up and find Zayn there. He wraps one arms around my waist and moves one hand to my cheek as I smile weakly at him. 

"I'll tell everyone when I'm ready, but this isn't the most important thing right now. Right now, I need you to come down to my college with me and explain why I wont be able to DANCE for a few weeks." I stare at the boy's, wipping any remaning tears from my cheeks as they groan. "Come on, it's not that bad, until you meet my teacher of course." They all groan again as I get back up and head into the living room and grab my keys to my apartment before looking at the boys. "Come on, I won't bite...much." I laugh as Louis and Harry do as well before letting me walk in front of them so if anything would happen, they'd all know.

We take the elevator down to the front of my appartment building and walk out to the car as I stop and look it over. A nice black Range Rover that was spotless, way to not be seen guys. Just wait till they got to my school, god they'd be eaten up. I get in with the help of Harry, well, knid of seeing as how he basically tried to help me up, while eyeing my butt the whole time.

After a good half an hour worth drive to my campus, the boys all put on hats and sunglasses, Harry and Louis, being the weirdos my sister had always said they where, put on wigs that looked so fake and horrible. "Sorry about the whole me falling on you back at the park Kani."

I look to my right and see Niall walking in pace with me, watching all the others ahead of us as they either get passed by, by students, or curious glares by slutty girls willing to get with anyone. "No, it's alright Niall, accidents happen. I'm just kind of sad that I'll be missing the oppertunity to play the elder version of Clara in The Nutcracker this year," I reply, looking back to the walkway ahead of me that'll lead all of us to the dance studio. Harry and Louis where skipping along, laughing and singing off tone, where as Liam and Zayn where walking peacefully, chatting softly as they walked. All of them where so different, yet where they best of friends. It's weird how they are this age, yet act like kids, no wonder my little sister likes them. “Continue on the right path once we get to the split off!” I yell out to Harry and Louis. Why where they up front and leading the way? I have no clue, but it was funny to watch them act like my sister, Lacey’s age.

I felt so sad for her inside. Our parent’s had suddenly died in their sleep for some reason and she’d have to leave home and all her friends to come and live with me. She was adored by everyone in our family, the little baby of my family. She had to become an adult in such a short time, the way I see it. "Kani, you alright?" Niall says, snapping me out of the trance I was in, thinking about my parents and sister, how we'd never get to spend another day waking up to the smell of moms fresh pancakes or listen to my father play the piano like it was an extention of his own hands.

"Yeah, I'm fine," I say quietly as we make it to the dance hall. Lucky for me, the studio I danced in was one the first floor. Finally, Louis and Harry let me lead the way to the studio seeing as how this place was just hall after hall of confusion. I stop after walking and turning down hallways for 5 minutes at least and end up at a medium sized door with the numbers 223 on it. My career as a dancer would be put on hold here, maybe even end, so I was utterly scared what would happen. 

Just as I was about to open the door, Harry, being the idiot he was, barges into the room without even realizing a class was going on. Students, my age or a bit old all stopped and stared at the boys as they walked in, me right in tow behind them. I freeze as I look around at everyone, they where wearing the costumes for The Nutcracker preformance my dance group is supposed to preform in a couple of months.

"Oh my god! Kani, what happened?" My best friend I made this year yells as she comes running over to me as the other girls start to realize that the boys are One Direction and stop running the dances to talk to them.

"Can I talk to you outside Claire?" I ask as she helps me outside and around the corner to a near by bench. I sit there for a bit, wondering how I could ask her for a bit of help with getting my sister tomorrow from the airport. "Claire, I was wondering if you could take me to the airport to pick up my sister?"

She looks me up and down before smiling and quickly standing up as she starts rambling on, like she always does with these kind of things. "Oh! I'd love to finally meet your sister! We are all going to have the greatest time ever while your parents allow her to visit! We can go to the movies, have picniks, eat junk food, go ice-"

To get her to stop talking and going on about how much fun we'd have, I simply yell her name to get her attention. "Claire!" I look up at her as tears brim my eyes before spilling over as I bit my lip to gather myself up to even mutter the next words. "My parents are dead Claire, my sister is coming to live with me. I am the only one left for my sister and what she needs right now is me to support her and take care of her. We'll be able to do everything another time, but I need you to help me get her and her things from the airport tomorrow, okay?"

Claire just stares at me for a bit before the smile on her face fades and she hugs me into her tight embrace. She never met my sister in person, but we'd talk to her over skype so I could say goodnight and tell her I love her all the time. Claire loved my sister and I like family already after months of knowing each other and she knew how much my parents meant to my sister and I along with how much I cared for my sister's happiness and well being. My life was now beginning to be turned upside down.
