Everything is dip dyed isn't it? Sometimes most of it is happy, and some times most of it is sad. -I WAS 12 DON'T READ-

From eight year olds to eighty-eight year olds. Letters from Liam.

It's basic. It's cliché. All because sometimes we need a cute little story where everything turns out perfect.

A little girl's letter to her dad, praying he just might see it.

He just wanted to find the key to the door she was hiding behind.

She never thought their strong bond would end. She never thought she'd lose her love.

**A/N** I STARTED WRITING THIS STORY WHEN I WAS 14 SO YOU OBVIOUSLY CAN'T EXPECT IT TO BE GOLD..JUST SAYING.. I KNOW THIS ISN'T REALLY HELPING MY STORY, BUT....THE BEGINNING WRITING IS ROUGH. I'VE TRIED TO FIX IT AS BEST I COULD BUT...IT IS WHAT IT IS. IT DOES GET BETTER THOUGH.** A/N 2. If you're looking for smut in this story, I'm sorry but there isn't any. I was uncomfortable writing such things at the age I was when I started writing this. A/N 3. Before you read: It will seem very cliche for the first few chapters, but then more drama reaches into the story. There are some depressing parts in this story, for your heads up. Please Comment or Vote or Fan. If you have any suggestions, please comment on the latest chapter (: This is my FIRST fanfic :P gimme some slack ;) Running away from home isn't necessarily an easy thing to do, but Colena Smith doesn't care, she's going to do it anyways. She's met up with the biggest boyband in the world in complete coincidence, and it's not long before everyone knows who she is. It's not like she wasn't well known already, as she's the Senator's daughter. Her dark past leaves her tortured in her memories, and causes old actions to return, tearing her and Niall apart. She soon discovers that she's not always who she thinks she is. What if her entire life was just a whole lie? What she doesn't know, though, is that she's contaminated, putting her into almost near death experiences. What will she do to gain revenge and take her life back? How far will her parents go to get her back in their grip? Will her condition take her away from Niall and the rest of the world before she can stop it?
