Broken© (Niall fanfic)

Chapter 13

Niall heard screaming coming from Dawn's room. He shot straight out of bed and ran to her room slinging the door open.

He rushed towards her bed and placed a hand on her shoulder gently shaking her. "Dawn. Dawn, wake up. It's a nightmare."

Her eyes shot open and a gasp left her lips. Her fear filled eyes met his and his heart ached at the sight. Tears pricked the back of her eyes and they slowly slid down her cheeks. A whimper escaped past her trembling lips.

For the first time since she can remember she grabbed ahold of Niall and held onto the back of his shirt, actually letting him comfort her.

Niall was shocked at first but soon cocooned her into his warm embrace. He gently brushed her hair cooing softly in her ear.

"It's okay now. He won't hurt you."

He could feel his shirt dampening from her tears and held her tighter against his chest. Her fingers curled around the material at the back of his shirt and held tightly as if he would disappear.

Harry and Faith soon rushed into the room. Niall's head turned to face them and he saw Faith take a deep breath of relief as a smile broke out into her face. Harry held up a thumb asking silently if everything was alright.

Niall subtly nodded in response and they left with smiles prominent. Dawn's sobs slowly settled, but she still refused to let go of Niall's shirt.

It was so realistic and terrifying. It was as if it had actually happened to her.

She took a deep shaky breath before pulling her head out of Niall's chest. He had a hand placed on her hair and the other resting comfortably on her lower back.

"Everything is going to be okay now."

She stared deeply into his eyes. She was slowly yet surely putting her trust into someone for the first time in her life.

She slowly nodded her head and a small comforting smile broke out onto his face. "Thank you."

He felt a surge of bravery overcome him and he leaned in, kissing her forehead. "Always."

He pulled away to see the reaction in her eyes. Her cheeks were a tomato red and her eyes were wide and shocked. He lightly chuckled and began to stand up from the bed.

"Wait." The sudden bravery seemed to diminish from inside her as he turned around to make eye contact.

She swallowed the lump in her throat. "P-please."

Niall understood exactly what she meant without her having to speak another word. She scooted over giving him enough room to lie down. He slipped under the covers pulling the duvet up over them. Her fists curled around his shirt once again and she snuggled deep into his side.

A wide smile was plastered across his face as her trust for him grew. Once he saw her breathing even out, he closed his eyes and fell asleep with her in his dreams.
