-10 AM Sunday morning-(5 days later)
"Now I'm a warrior
now I've got thicker skin
I'm a warrior
I'm stronger than I've ever been
and my armour, is made of steel, you can't get in
I'm a warrior
and you can never hurt me again"
"Need any help from auntie T?" Talia asked walking into the room with the piano, I shake my head "Not with this, but with something else" She sits down beside me and I whisper "I got my period for the first time today" She nods and goes to get me a few things "I'll tell Freya we can have a girls day and we will get you stuff. you don't have to come if you don't want to. Do you?" she asks me and I shake my head before returning my attention to my music. "Hello there Mozart," Tobi says leaning on the piano I nod at him while writing down lyrics "So, any other hidden talents? singing-songwriting what else?" I chuckle and say "Nope I'm boring. When is the sidemen Sunday being released? Mo said he'd cut out my hissy fit," he laughs and says "Soon, since when were you and Mo friends?" "he edited my video" he nods and mumbles an 'okay' before moving off to the kitchen or somewhere.

"Soph, I get that you're getting the grind on but you've been sat at that piano for 5 hours getting annoyed with yourself for messing up. Take a break, get some food. Have some water, I don't know be a teenager" Simon said practically dragging me off the piano, I shook my head and stood- well sat my ground "You try writing a song, it's not fucking easy Si" Josh tuts walking in "Sorry" I mumble for my profanities "I agree with Simon, Soph c'mon! You're starting school next Thursday" I slam the piano shut and storm up to my room "Just fucking fantastic" I mumble closing the door. "Knock knock," I hear Talia on the other side of the door "Come in, how are you always so happy?" I say as she sits on my bed, a carrier bag resting on my floor. "Well hun, not to be a dick but I've not gone through as much as you have" I nod in agreement as I watch her pick up the bag. "Pads, tampons, hot water bottle, heat pads for if you have cramps going out and then you can also ask Mum or dad or one of the boys for paracetamol if you're in pain and lastly," She stands up to grab something from outside my room. "When I'm ill or on my period I wear simons hoodies because they make me feel better I guess, so I forced JJ to give me a hoodie of his and I checked it. There is absolutely no purple anywhere on the hoodie." I smile at her and wrap her in a huge hug.
"Coming downstairs?" Freya asked watching us from the door, I nod and grab my hot water bottle before trudging into the kitchen. "How can I feel fine one minute and then feel like I'm in labour the next?" I sigh with my head on the counter waiting for the kettle to boil (A/N this is how I make a hot water bottle, and I'm always right so fk off. if you think 'I'm wrong' pft, no) "dramatic much?" Jj says and I can just tell he rolled his eyes. "You do know that they did a study to prove that cramps can be as painful as a heart attack? Cardiac arrest, something that people die from!" (A/N or survive from. read my other book: 'The Stanley Hotel' shameless plug :]) I fix my hot water bottle and go into the living room. "Ethan," I say dragging out the 'n' "what," he says with the same tone "I wanted to sit there" I complained like a 3-year-old. "I thought your daughter was 15 not fucking 3!?" Ethan chuckled at me to which I glared at him.
I slumped down beside Ethan and laid my head on his shoulder hiding my eyes from the light. for the past hour, we've been watching a documentary on Netflix about something boring. everyone else left to do work but Ethan stayed with me. "This is shit," I mumble grabbing the remote and changing it "hey!" Ethan moaned watching me change it to 'Evil genius' "It's a true crime, murder documentary I saw on Twitter." I said sitting back, he nodded and we watched 2 episodes before josh came to interrupt us "Do you wan-" "Shut up!!" we cut him off focusing our attention back on the screen.

"Do you want pizza Behz?" I hear Tobi ask as I wake up, "the answer is already no, I'm going to my piano," I groaned standing up and taking the blanket with me, "fair enough soph," Harry chuckles a bit as I walk past him with my blanket trailing on the floor. "Ugh!" I slump down beside the piano bench, no not on it, beside it. because I'm a fuckwit. "Soph c'mere a minute! we're playing charades" Josh shouts from the living room pronouncing it 'sha-rah-ds' I roll my eyes and practically crawl into the living room "You're a snail!" JJ shouts pointing at me. I laugh and shake my head before standing up. I point at Freya and then make a gesture for stomach pains followed by a motion for pills before nodding snd standing there. "You want Freya...to...take pills...and have...a stomach?" Each of the boys bicker about it before Freya clears her throat and says "She wants me to get her painkillers because she has cramp." I nod and dramatically collapse on the floor, the boys laugh while Freya tuts and grabs my hot water bottle from the couch.
-THIS COULD BE TRIGGERING-
"Boys, want a story like?" I say to them they nod and look confused "Right so," I started but was rudely interrupted by Simon "You fucking WillNE mate?" I roll my eyes and continue. "Let me think, so when I was like 7. Just before the birth givers *whistles and makes a boom sound while imitating a plane with her hand, hitting the floor* I had stomach pain. Not period pains because I was seven, and one of the male birth givers' nonce mates came to me and told me that, and I quote, 'I was getting punished by God for not having kids and that I would go to hell if I complained'. Now I'm catholic, I was seven, Seven! Anyway safe to say he's dead." Let me tell you, these boys faces were a blinking picture "What the fuck?!" Ethan says nervously laughing before josh shoots him a death glare "Oh dad, that's literally nothing compared to other shit." I say before covering my mouth "Oops, soz" He rolled his eyes and we all just laughed.
