Up All Night with One Direction - a one direction fan fiction

Chapter 22: Scary first hours in London

Everybody all got in the black limo that was waiting for us outside the airport and drove off to the complex where the boys all lived.

Niall pulled out the keys to his apartment and walked inside to find his cat, Jess sitting on the couch and staring right at Niall.

The first thing Niall did was give Jess a tin of cat food. He then fell back onto the couch and turned on the TV.

“So, this where you do your twitcams?” I asked Niall knowing the answer would be yes.

“How did you know?” Niall replied.

“You know, just the background and I remembered those curtains because my parents had the exact same back in Australia.” I said trying not to sound creepy.

I walked over towards the couch where Niall was sitting and he pulled me into is arms. We lay together on the lounge watching TV for a bit before Niall got up and showed me around the rest of his apartment.

By the time Niall finished with the tour, we heard a knock on the door.

I opened it to find a girl that looked about 14 years old standing there with tears streaming down her face. I let her in and sat her down on the couch. Niall went and put a pot of tea on as the girl looked really cold.

“What’s the matter darling?” I asked sympathetically.

“Well I am in love with this guy who is famous but he just got engaged to his girlfriend.” She said looking at the ground.

“Awh who is it?” I asked obliviously

“Well he starts with an N, and ends with and iall” The girl said sadly finally looking in my eyes.

My heart shattered into pieces at that exact moment realizing that she came here because she was talking about Niall and I and somehow freakishly knew where Niall and I lived.

“Look darling. I’m sorry that you are so upset about this, but just remember that you don’t always get the guy you want. There are so many other guys out there and you don’t need to get so upset about just one.” I explained

Niall walked in with 3 cups of tea and gave one to the girl.

I got up and pulled Niall into the kitchen and told him why the girl was upset.

Niall and I went out to the girl and Niall lifted her onto her feet and gave her a hug.

“It’s okay, No matter if I am engaged, Married or single, I still love all of you guys so much.” Niall said with a smile on his face as he pulled out of the hug.

The girl pulled her hair to the side and thanked Niall and hugged him again. At that time I saw scars and bruises on the lower part of her neck coming out of her shirt.

“What are those scars?” I asked the girl pointing at her back.

“Oh, Uhm, nothing.” The girl lied.

“I know you are lying, what are they?” I asked sternly.

The girl whispered to me asking if we could go to a different room for a minute.

We walked into mine and Niall’s bedroom and she lifted up her shirt at the back. That was when I found huge wounds all over her back and even what looked like whip marks.

“What are those?” I asked as she pulled her shirt over her back again.

“My dad gets drunk every night and comes home and you know, attack me. Only because I am a girl when he wanted a boy. Before my mum died he was fine and loved me to death, but then my mum got cancer and died. Soon after my dad got depressed and went out to the pub and drank his own weight in beer. If I even blink at the wrong time my dad attacks me and if he is really angry he gets the hardest belt in his cupboard and whips me with the buckle.” The girl said beginning to cry again.

Without saying a word, I pulled the girl into a hug. I felt like I was her older sister because this love for her just shot straight through my body and made me feel like she has been part of my family my whole life.

I gave the girl my phone number and told her that she could call me at anytime if her dad went out to the pub or if she was even upset about the slightest of things.

The girl left with her head hanging low. I felt really bad for seeing her walk out the door, but I couldn’t just let her live here just like that. I would have to talk to Niall and what would we do when we go on tour and everything? We had to think practically about it and not let the sympathy take over our bodies.

Niall and I sat down and watched TV again for a while and then I heard my phone ringing. I jumped up to get it and it said it was a blocked number.

I didn’t answer it because I didn’t know if it was fans who have found my number or anything. When it stopped ringing, I got a text message from my message bank saying I had 1 new voicemail.

I listened to it and it sounded like a grown man’s voice.

“If I come home and my daughter is missing, I will track you down!” The man said sounding overly drunk.

I listened to the voicemail again but harder this time. I heard distant yelling that sounded like the girl.

“Call the police, Call the police” The girl in the voicemail said over and over again.

I went over to Niall and got him to listen to the voicemail. He didn’t know what to do so we decided to take it down to my parents apartment which was 3 stories below us.

“What do you think mum?” I asked as she heard the voicemail.

“Well I know for sure that I will be calling the police. And I think you and Niall need to stay here for the night.” Mum said.

Mum called the police and put the phone on loudspeaker. She put my phone up to the phone she was calling from and got the police to listen to the voicemail.

“We can track this man down from the sound of his voice. We will be at yours as soon as possible.” The constable said over the phone.

Once the police arrived we had my voicemail set on replay while the police got out this new hi tech equipment which could track someone down just by listening to their voice.

There was a knock on the door and Niall went and checked it. Niall then walks back into the room with Harry, Louis, Sarah, Zayn and Liam following him.

“Your dad called us and told us what is happening Emma. Are you and Niall okay?” Zayn asked.

Just before I replied the police shouted,

“EUREKA! WE HAVE HIM AND WE KNOW WHERE HE IS!”
