Finally- a Niall Horan fanfiction

Chapter 44- shes back

LEXIE'S POV

I pull into the parking lot of the market to get some groceries. I put my glasses on and put my head down to try not to draw any attention to myself. I walk in and gab a shopping cart. Going through the list and getting what I need I feel that weird someone eyeing me again feeling. Like the one from dinner. I found the last few things I needed. Milk, check. Eggs, check. I walk over to the cheese and reached to grab it only to have my hand bump into someone else's.

"Oh sorry. Here you ta-" I jaw surely would have been on the floor, if it was that long. No words, I couldn't say anything.

"Lexie?" She asks making sure that it was really me. "You've gotten so big. And beautiful. She awes over me.

Still, no words. It's like I have forgotten to speak. Yet there is so much to be said.

"Come here." She opens her arms and leans in for a hug and I back away from her hug.

"No." I state finally saying something. I can tell I caught her off guard by the way she she raises a brow and her arms fall down slightly.

"W-what?"

"I said no mom. Do you know how much pain you and dad caused me? Do you know how much of a shit life I've had because of you two?" Tears start forming in my eyes.

"Yes I know but I'm better now. Your father and I aren't together anymore. I'm a new person now." I smiles.

"I don't care. I finally got adopted and moved here. I was bullied throughout high school until college an-" I talk about how horrible my life was.

"You couldn't have been bullied that bad." She says in disbelief. I look at her and yank up both of my sleeves revealing my scares. "Now why would you do something like that?"

"Because I didn't know what else to do!" I raise my voice to where I'm almost shouting. "My adopted father became a drunk, I was bullied, I had NOTHING." I exaggerate the last word.

"Yea but your life is better now right? You are beautiful, you are a celebrity, a singer, a very famous one at that." She continues.

"That's very flattering but you don't know the hell I've been through. The hell I've been through in my past and recently." I push my sleeves back down realizing that they were still up.

"Oh you and your celebrity problems. What was it. Don't have as many twitter followers as Katy Perry?" She's pushing me. I might not show it and it takes a lot but when I get mad, I get mad. And right now, I'm on my way.

"My adopted father murdered my mom and almost murdered me. He tried killing me twice. He followed me the whole time I was on tour. He killed my mom." Tears are starting to form again.

"I'm your mother." She takes a step towards me.

"Your were never my mother and never will be." I said getting angrier with each word coming out of my mouth.

"I birthed you. You are mine." She's angry too.

"A mother I one who loves their child. From my memories you weren't a mother to me. Lauren was." She steps towards me.

"Shut up." She said. I wanted cry when her hand smacked across my face. I wanted to prove how strong I am so I didn't flinch. "Don't you dare talk to me that way young lady." She points her figure at me sternly.

"I'm not a young lady." I protested but she just laughed.

"Yea how old are you? 15 16?" She chuckle.

"19." I cross my arms over my chest. "You know what, I don't need this. There is one thing I have always wanted to say to you."

"And what would that be?" She mimics my actions.

"Fuck you, you psychotic bitch." I show her both my middle fingers and leave the market leaving the cart full of food. I walk to my car and get in the drivers side and tears are finally released and I break out into complete sobs. This has all came to me at once. I can't take it. When I can see again I start my car and drive to someone's flat that is near by. Niall's. I know he won't be home but I know where he keeps the key.

I unlock the door and head straight to the kitchen not caring how much noise I'm making. I find the knife drawer and pick up one. As I'm sobbing I slide the knife across my wrist. This feeling is so familiarly unfamiliar. Why can't I just have a normal life.

"Lexie!" Someone yelled and yanked the knife out of my hand. "What are ya' doing?" Someone's arms wrap around me. My cries increase as I sob harder and louder. "Shhhhhh, it's okay. Your alright. Just breathe and calm down." I recognize the Irish accent that is Niall's. He starts to sway both of us from side to side and starts to hum a song. I know this part. It's the verse he wrote for me in little things. I start calming down and breathe better. Niall breaks the hug and goes to get two wash cloths and presses them on my wrist applying pressure.

-----------------

"So she showed up and just started confronting you." I nodded into Niall's chest. "Princess your face is red." He gently caresses my cheek with his hand. I wince in pain. "I'm sorry."

"It's okay. She slapped me." My voice barely audible.

"She slapped you?!" He said in pure shock. "What is her problem? Does she have any sense at all?" I said nothing. "Come with me." Niall stood and took my hands in his. He led me upstairs and into his bedroom. "Sit." He said and sit down on his bed. I stare at him in confusion as he is fumbling around with his drawers. "Here." He put clothes in my lap. "I want you to go take a shower and get ready for bed. You had a long day."

"I'm fine." I protest.

"No. You had a very long and bad day. I want you to go take a shower." He said sternly. Oddly it's kinda turn on when he acts all serious. I put the clothes down next to me and stand up.

"Niall, I'm okay." Suddenly I was lifted off the ground and slung over Niall's shoulder. "Niall what are you doing?" I kick my legs trying to break free from his grip. He set me down in the bathroom and handed me the clothes.

"I will see you when you get out." He smiles and walkouts shutting the door on his way out. I sigh in defeat as I turn on the water. I strip off my clothes and step into the shower. The hot water relaxes my muscles until a stinging pain is replaced. I wince in pain as the water irritates my new wounds. I quickly wash my hair and body with Niall's stuff, I know he won't mind, and hurry out of the shower. I want to cry but I refuse to, she doesn't deserve my tears. I put in the cloths Niall gave me. Which consist of his boxers and one of his t-shirts.

I get out of the bathroom and find my phone and text Katie that I will be starting here.

"Your out." A voice came from behind me startling me a little. I know it's Niall. He wraps his arms around my waist and kisses my neck. "Feel better?" He asks.

"Yea. The hot water burned."

"Let's go to bed." He suggested and I nodded. We got into bed and he wrapped his arm around me pulling me into his chest. I shut my eyes and drift off into sleep.
