"Hey babe." I said walking to the fridge to get some apple juice.

"Hey." He said

"Where’s Lux?" I asked.

"Lou already picked her up." He said.

"Oh." I said. I was kind of sad without having Lux there. I looked over at the clock.

"It’s four?!" I yelled looking at the boys.

"Why didn’t anyone wake me up?" I asked lowering my voice.

"You would have been grumpier." Louis mumbled.

"Sorry you guys." I said sitting down next to Niall.

"For what?" They all asked.

"For being the way I am." I said playing with my bandanna.

"That’s what we love about you!" Niall yelled giving me a hug.

"Girl you’re amazing! Just the way you are!" He yelled.

"Thanks Niall." I laughed unwrapping myself from the hug.

"Well I'm going to go watch TV." I said getting up and walking into Harry’s room.

"TV is in the living room!" Zayn yelled.

"Well, there is one in here too!" I snapped back.

I jumped on the bed and started crying into my pillow. I heard the door open and then close. I thought it was Harry so I just kept crying. I felt someone sit beside me. I tuned my head and was surprised to see Louis. I just turned my head back into my pillow and cried.

"I'm not leaving until you tell me." Louis said getting comfortable on the bed.

"I don’t think you actually care." I said sitting up and hugging a pillow.

"The boys are eating ice cream and watching Grease, and im in here, you know how much I love that movie." He said poking my cheek.

"Yeah." I said smiling.

"I'm waiting." He said smiling.

"I don’t really deserve this, any of you guys." I said messing with my bandanna.

"What do you mean by that?" He asked looking at me.

"I have never really had much of a family." I started.

"My parents and brother were killed in a car accident when I was thirteen. No one in my family wanted me, so I was sent to an orphanage. That lady was so mean, I couldn’t take any of the abuse she always gave us, so I started…" I trailed off remembering my past.

"Cutting?" Louis said finishing my sentence. I nodded as tears kept flowing down my cheeks.

"That’s why you wear that bandanna on your wrist?" Louis asked pointing to it. I silently nodded.

"Then one day, I managed to sneak put of the orphanage, but I got caught and beaten. Then one night, I decided to try again. I actually made it out alive. I was out by fourteen, I got a job at fifteen, enrolled myself in a school, bought a little house, met my friends, talked about x factor, then all of this." I faked smiled. I kept crying, I just could not stop. Louis enveloped me in a hug.

"Can I see?" He asked pointing to my wrist. I nodded and untied my bandana. He just stared at my wrist until I put my bandana back on.

"I’m glad you’re here." He said giving me a hug.

"Thanks Lou." I whispered still wrapped in a hug.

"Now go make yourself look pretty and come watch the movie with us!" Louis said jumping off the bed and walking out the door.

No Louis can joke around a lot, but he will always be there in the end. I walked into the bathroom to make it look like I haven’t been crying. I walked into the living room and sat in Harry’s lap.

"Why don’t you go sit in Louis’ lap." He said glaring at me.

"What do you mean?" I asked laughing a little.

"He said you guys talked." Harry said not making eye contact.

"So you immediately think something happened between us?" I asked getting out of his lap. He just shrugged.

"I talked to him cause he actually came to see if I was okay!" I yelled. The boys just sat there quietly.

"Well that’s not always his job!" Harry yelled.

"Well he’s better at it than you!" I yelled.

"Sorry I'm not nosy!" He yelled back.

"Louis isn’t the type of guy who goes, oh she’s fine just give her some space." I yelled mocking Harry.

"He’s the kind of person who says, screw time! I'm going to check on her!" I continued yelling.

"I thought you would need some time alone!" He yelled.

"Well sometimes, I need someone who will be there for me!" I screamed tears spilling down my face.

"Whatever." Harry said running to his room slamming the door.

I backed up into a corner and slid down the wall crying into my hands. All the boys but Harry and Louis ran over to me. I figured that Louis went to talk to Harry.

"Its going to be okay." Niall said hugging me.

"Yeah." Zayn and Liam agreed.

"No its not." I whispered to myself.

"Harry just gets jealous easily." Liam said.

"I wish he didn’t." I said taking deep breaths.

"I just don’t understand how a person gets so jealous when their girlfriend talks to their friend." I said hugging my knees.

"We don’t know either." Zayn said.

"I just told Louis my past; I can trust Louis more than Harry." I said looking up at them.

"Well Louis is a good listener." Liam said. I just nodded and stared at nothing.

"Do you think Harry will forgive me?" I asked starting to cry.

"He gets jealous, but he always forgives and he doesn’t need to make you apologize, you didn’t do anything." Niall said. I just smiled and wiped my face.

"You guys make me feel so much better." I said smiling.

"That’s what we are here for." Zayn said smiling.

"Thanks bad boy." I said laughing a little. Every one of the boys let out a little chuckle which made me smile.

"At least ill have you guys for a good while." I said closing my eyes.

"We will always be here if you need us." Liam said. I took a deep breath and sighed.

"Promise?" I looked at them and asked.

"Promise." The all said. I stuck out my pinky and locked it which each of theirs,

"If you break my pinky promises I will seriously kill you." I said smiling.

"We won’t, I promise." Niall said. I smiled.

"I love you guys." I whispered.

"Love you too." They all said. When I calmed down a bit we all sat on the couch.

"Guys?" I asked them.

"Yeah?" Liam asked.

"Story time?" I asked looking at them. They nodded their heads.
