Niall's Pov:
Emotions, There easy to deal with during the day, You can shut them out, Focus your mind on something else, You have full control, However when you fall asleep you lose that control, You go to a place where you have no power, That place is your dreams, Some are happy but if your like me one of those unlucky few your dreams are full of dark nightmares. I hate sleeping whenever I do sleep I see my mum, I see her beautiful smile, I hear her voice like shes's still here with me. Were back in that car, Were laughing and joking not a care in the world, She's telling me how proud she is of me, But that's when I hear it, The screeching of tyres, My eyes widen as I see a bright light, My mother looks at me with wide eyes, The sound of glass shattering around me, My mothers screams of pain. Yeah in my dreams I remember the day my mother was taken from me. I remember all the pain of shaking her desperately trying to wake her up, But her eyes wouldn't open, That's when I knew she was gone. Hearing the sirens of the ambulance in the background, Waiting for them to cut me out the car, My screams of help as they desperately tried reaching my mother, Waiting in that waiting room, Seeing the doctor walk in telling me I'd lost my mum, That the impact from the crash killed her instantly. I laid awake in Cher's bed trying to erase those pictures from my mind. Tears began to fall from my eyes as the want to be near my mother once again grew stronger. I quickly wiped my tears before pulling out my phone, I dialed a number before holding the phone to my ear.
"Nialler? Is that you buddy?" Greg's voice filled my ears.
"Yeah bro, It's me" I replied.
"What's going on mate? I thought you'd be at school" He asked.
"Nothings wrong, I just miss you that's all, Wanted to hear your voice, Oh yeah I'm supposed to be but I'm not well so dad let me have the day off" I lied.
"Oh, Get better soon buddy, I miss you too mate" He said, I sighed.
"When are you coming home?" I asked.
"Not for a few more months Nialler, But time will fly by, You still have dad" He replied, I sighed, If only he knew.
I thought calling Greg would make me feel better, Apart from dad he's the closest I have to mum, But calling him did nothing but make me miss her more. There was only one thing I knew I could do. So I took the short walk to the local graveyard, Where my mums body was laid to rest.
"Hi mum, Sorry I didn't get you no flowers, I didn't know I'd be coming, Sorry I haven't come to see you lately things have, Well it's been rough, But you probably know that" I said as I sat down infront of her head stone.
"I feel a little crazy talking to nothing apart from a headstone, I hope you can somehow hear what I'm saying. Things at school haven't changed much, I'm doing pretty good in every subject, I hope your proud of me, Cher's still as crazy ever, She finally got a good mark in History to, As for Zayn, Well were still not speaking" I said before taking a deep breath.
"I spoke to Greg today, He's loving university, He's doing really good aswell, Working as hard as ever, As for dad the drinking hasn't eased up, It's gotten worse mum, He blames me for what happened, He thinks it's my fault that your not here, I don't know, I mean maybe it is my fault, Maybe if it wasn't for me you would still be here today, I don't know what to do mum, I need you here. I need you to tell me what to do, I need you back mum, Your the only one who can save me, I'm scared mum, I'm scared it's going to go to far, And no one will be able to save me before it's to late" I stated finally letting my tears out, I broke down as I grabbed hold of my mums head stone holding onto it tightly. I cried tears of pain, Sorrow, Fear and defeat.
"Niall?" Cher's voice filled my ears, I looked up to see her standing behind me, The moment she saw me her eyes filled with worry, She dropped down beside me before pulling me into a tight hug. I buried my head into the crock of her neck as I held onto her for dear life.
"Shh, Niall it's ok, I'm here babe, I'm here" She whispered. "Let it all out Nialler" She added while gently rubbing my back. I cried not caring if it made me weak. It felt like hours passed before I finally calmed down, But Cher she stayed with me the whole time, She stayed hugging me never letting me go.
"What are you doing here?" I whispered.
"I came home and you wasn't there, I went to your house but nobody was home, This was the place I thought you was most likely to be" She replied.
"I miss her Cher, So much, She's the only one who can save me" I cried out.
"Shh, I know Nialler, It's ok" Cher whispered, I shook my head before looking up.
"No, You don't understand, You don't know everything" I mumbled.
"So tell me Ni, Tell me what's happened, I can help you" She stated.
"You can't, I can't put you through that" I whispered.
"Niall you look at me ok? Were best friends, No force in the world could stop me from being there for you, And nothing will stop me from protecting you, If someones done something to you, Then you need to tell me Niall, I wanna help you but I can't if you don't say" Cher stated.
"H-He-He's been hurting me Cher" I stuttered out.
"Who has?" She asked.
"Da-My dad, He's been beating me" I revealed my biggest secret before falling into Cher's waiting arms.
I felt as though the weight of the world had been lifted from my shoulders, Finally telling somebody gave me the feeling of strength, Cher she didn't run, She didn't tell me I was on my own, She stayed with me holding me close to her as I cried, She whispered sweet nothings into my ear, I felt like I was loved, Like I was cared for, For the first time in a long time I felt like I wasn't alone in this.
