Liam's Pov

"Guys I'm leaving" I waited to hear them scream but there was nothing "guys?" Then I heard a horn "you coming or not I'm driving" Zayn said.

"There's the lads for you" I whispered under my breath.

"Okay so what are we gonna do with this girl" Lou asked

"ABBY" we all yelled.

"Sorry lads I'm forgetful" oh crap here comes protective Harry.

"I swear you forget her name or make her uncomfortable I will fucking kill you" Harry swears.

And there it is...

"Harry" I roll my eyes "chill dude." "Ok Mr. Daddy Direction" he says with sarcasm clear in his voice. "Whatever Haz" I rolled my eyes.

"Okay ladies stop the drama" Zayn said. "SHUT UP ZAYN" me and Harry said together. "seriously you lads just made something out of nothing" Zayn fired back.

"STOP FIGHTING YOU IDIOTS YOU ARE ALL FUELING THE FIRE RIGHT BEFORE WE GO PICK UP ABBY" Niall was infuriated. "Jesus I don't think I've ever heard you shout" Lou chuckled.

The rest of the ride was spent in complete silence. Until we reached the adoption center "YAY WERE HERE LETS GO LETS GO!" Niall was like a little kid on Christmas. "Wait..." Niall stopped and stomped his feet "whyyyy."

Wow really Niall.. "Ok yesterday was her 16th birthday and she has had a bad past that's all I know." Harry turns "not even what she looks like?" I slapped him in the back of the head "of course I do you idiot!"

"Seriously guys let's go" Niall is gonna freak out. We walk in and are greeted bye over 200 girls and the room fills with screams. "LADIES" Mrs.Lucy yells "ROOMS NOW!" She takes a deep breath "Abby is on her way down." Harry nudges me "have you ever met her?" I look at him "no I've only seen her pictures."

Zayn's Pov

We hear the wheels hit the floor and start to roll "here we go" Liam says.

When the girl comes around the corner I can't breath she's beautiful...

Blonde hair with dark blue eyes. She's wearing a black tee and skinny jeans with a flat bill and a hoodie tied around her waist.

"Hello" she shyly says.

"Hey" we all say together.

I take a step forward "I'm Zayn she looks into my eyes and shakes my hand "nice to meet you Zayn."

The rest of the boys do the same thing after she says "Well I'm Abigail but call me Abby.

"I'll take your bags" I speak up trying to break the silence. "Ok I'm going to go with Lucy and sign the papers go ahead and go out to the car" Laim says.

I walk out to the car and put the bags in the trunk then open the passenger side door "ladies first." I smile and she smiled back I notice a tattoo that says "a smile can hide a million tears on her arm."

She notices me staring at her arm and she pulls her hoodie on "I'll tell you later" she whispers. Why in the world does she have ink at 16? What idiot did that it was beautiful writing but still really.

I yell "hurry boys Abby's got front!"

Lou screams back "10 minutes lad!" I roll my eyes and get in. "So.... what you wanna talk about we have 10 minutes."

Abby's Pov

"I don't know" I answered shyly "well do want us to sing to you?" I nodded and he smiled. that smile is so charming it kills me.

The back door opened "what we miss" Niall asked. "Nothing were gonna sing for Abby." Then the boys all answered "Ok"

The drive was filled with the boys singing.

"COME ON ABBY" Lou said "sing it girl."

They all started singing again

"The story of my life I take her home I'll drive all night to keep her warm and time is Frozen."

Lou gives me puppy eyes "fine" I took a deep breath I haven't sang in years..

"The story of my life!" I sang as loud as I could they all freeze "what are you staring at was it that bad."

Zayn hit the brakes "That... was... AMAZING" they all finish the sentence Zayn started. I feel my cheeks heat "stop it guys your embarrassing me."

We rode in silence after about 30 minutes we pulled into the driveway of a large flat. 'OMG is this your house?"

"You mean our house" Harry corrected me. All of the boys except Zayn got out. Then I started to get out of the car but Zayn's hand grabbed my shoulder. "Will you tell us your story tomorrow?"

Oh god the horrific story that ruined my life. The story of my 10th birthday. The story of my dad's last day. The day my mom became a psychotic bitch. The day my mom was sentenced to death.

I nodded "Bring the tissues." I said before I shut the door "I need a blade." I said aloud "WHY" Zayn said and grabbed my wrist. He threw my hoodie off to reveal my tattoo and scars.

"I cut you would too if it happened to you." I saw hurt flash through his Carmel eyes. "tell me about the tat" I rolled my eyes "inside" I replied.

He grabbed my hoodie "put it on" I did so. Then, he grabbed my hand and took me too a room. "This is your room... Now spill" he said quietly.

I sat on the bed and patted the spot next to me for him to sit. He walked over and sat down "now" he said softly.

"Okay... When I was 13 I started drinking and cutting one night I got drunk and..."

His face was flushed almost white "and this happened" I say gesturing to my tattoo. I noticed a tear in his eyes but he blinked it away.

"Why Abby?"

"I... I don't know I was drunk and sad." He went from sad to mad fast "What idiot gave you that!" He tried keeping quiet "i don't remember Zayn please."

Zayn started pacing the room "who... Abby tell me now." I was frozen but chocked out "me" he stopped dead in his tracks.

"What do you mean" I looked down at my feet. "I wanted to be a tattoo artist and I tested it out on myself."

Pain was clear in his eyes why is he sad? Does he like me? No. There is no way...

I pulled out a binder full of designs I drew. "Here check it out" I handed it to him. He slowly grabbed the binder and sat back down.

He flipped through then he got to one that had a sticky note is had wrote. Get for 16th birthday. He rose a brow "show me" he said. I had gotten it from a tattoo artist I knew I lifted my hoodie off. I stopped and grabbed the hem of my shirt and lifted it off.

His face went pale when he saw my bones and the tattoo on my side. It said Fighter and had boxing gloves at the bottom.

"Wh... why are you so... so skinny?" I picked up my shirt "anorexia" I put my shirt on and he was still staring.

You know now I hope your happy I thought. "I love you fighter" Fighter? What was that "nickname" I questioned. "Yep" he replied popping the P.

"Now Zayn can you keep a secret?"

-I know I left it on a cliff hanger don't hate me though please...
