Acacia's POV

"You're free to go Ms. Williams."

I smilied, as I took my prescription and walked out the front doors. My little sister and father trailed behind me. My father looked disappointed in me. For what I have no answer. Did I do anything wrong? Was it my fault my brother is a pyschopath? Is it my fault  I almost got killed? Um, NO.

I slumped my head and sighed. I got into my car and drove off away from my father. Away from my sister. Away from this hell hole I called life. I pulled up into the nearest parking lot and texted Niall.

To: Niall

"Hey. I got out of the hospital. Wanna hang? :)"

I got a text back immediately.

From: Niall

"Sure! Meet me at Harry and Louis' flat. Here are the directions"

I followed the road into a building complex. I stopped at room 231 and knocked on the door. I was glad to see that beautiful face when the door opened.

"Hey Gorgeous." Niall said, smiling at me.

"Hi." I replied

Gorgeous? Does he even know what he's looking at right now? Bruises, scrapes, and scars cover my face. I looked horrifying. I could scare Freddy Krueger if he walked in right now.

I went to the bathroom and looked at myself in the mirror. I took my concealer and put some on to my bruises. I looked at my outfit and you can visibly see my wound.

"Bad day to wear a crop top." I say to myself.

I walked out of the bathroom into the living room where everybody was. I looked around the room, everyone cuddling their girlfriends. Louis with Eleanor. Liam with Danielle. Zayn with Perrie. Harry with Shelby. I looked to Niall. He was sitting by himself at the floor, looking at all the couples, until he saw me, and looked up at me. He smiled, revealing his braces. I walked towards him and sat beside him on the floor.

"Acacia." I introduced myself, sticking out my hand for him to return the gesture.

He shook my hand.

"Name's Niall.", He replied

I giggled at his cute Irish accent. I look to Harry and the boys.

"Well, shall we watch a movie?"

Louis got up and picked a scary movie called 'The Exorcist"

I widened my eyes at his selection. I hate scary movies. I couldn't bare to watch it anymore. I moved closer to Niall and buried my face into his chest. His slow heartbeat calmed me down. His breath made me get chills. He kissed my forehead. I smiled and looked back up at him. He looked down and smiled. I rested my head back on his shoulder as he put his arm around me, cradling me closer to his body. I doozed off into a deep sleep.

Niall's POV

She moved closer to me. I guess she wasn't a fan of scary movies like me. She rested her head upon my chest. She was so adorable. I kissed her forehead. Her green sparkling eyes looked up at me. She rested her head upon my chest once more as I pulled her warm body closer to mine. She must've fallen asleep, as I was drifting away too.

                                                               NEXT MORNING

Acacia's POV

I woke up on the floor with Niall. A blanket covered me and him as his arm wrapped my body. I looked around the room to find all the couples sleeping. I woke Niall up.

"What?" He said.

His morning voice is so adorable.

"How about me and you just hang out today?"

He smiled and got up. We sneaked out of Harry and Louis' apartment and hopped into Niall's car. I told him to drive me over to my place so I could get changed. I Put on a sleeveless short dress and some nude sandals. I quickly did my makeup and straightened my hair.

I hopped back outside and put a note on the table before I left saying I'll be back home tomorrow. I threw my bag of clothes into the back as Niall sped off.

"Where are we going?" I asked Niall, my hair blowing into my face.

"You'll see." He said, smiling at me.

Nialls POV

I decided to take Acacia to the park. It's the most relaxing place for me at least. I want to take her mind off her brother, and her family. Once we got there, I hopped to Acacia's side to open the door for her.

"What a gentleman." She said, winking at me.

I couldn't help but smile. We walked around the park, talking about our pasts, our futures, our presents.

Acacia just moved here from Chicago. Her mum and dad died in a housefire, so she moved in with her step-father. Her family seems wonderful except for her older brother Roger. She says he tormented her ever since she was 5 years old. She said she wouldn't be here if not for her sister Delilah.

I turned to Acacia to tell her we should get back to the flat because it's getting pretty late.

We turned around, only to see a familiar man's face.

"Hello Acacia."

Acacia's POV

That voice tormented me. I couldn't help but to break down into tears. I grabbed Niall. I grabbed his hand and ran as fast as he ever possibly could. I stopped to get a breath but only to get hit in the back of the head. I fell and passed out right then and there. Will Niall save me, or end up like me, on the ground?

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

Oh no. Is Roger back to kill Acacia, or to get rid of Niall.

Read the next chapter to find out.
