Niall’s POV

I was talking to my mum on the phone, she was at the store and asked if i needed anything. “Can you stop by Nandos?” “i’m at the grocery store Niall, if you want Nandos you’ll have to get off your hindquarters and go get it yourself.” “but mum, I’m watching the house. like you said i should.” i heard her huff then sigh. “No Niall, if you want something it’ll have to be from here.” i pouted. “fine. a bag of chips…two….and a pepsi..” i hung up. I got up and went downstairs to watch tv or something because no one’s talked to me all day …actually maybe i should call Chanel and see how she’s doing. As soon as i thought that there was a knock at the door.

“hullo?” i asked as i opened the door. Stupid idea i know but eh….”Niall…can i come in?” I looked down to see Chanel. “oh, Nelly…Course ya can, what’s on ya mind?” i asked, following her to the living room, after closing the door. She kept her head down, so i couldn’t see her face, and the sound of her voice makes me feel as though something bad happened. i sat down on the couch and she stood there for a minute, looking as if she wasn’t sure what to do. “Niall…”

She sat down and sighed, then layer her head on my shoulder. “He broke up with me.” She said in an even tone. I wrapped my arms around her. She didn’t cry. she just sat there. breathing at a concerning pace. as though she wanted to cry. “well, Nelly…that’s his loss….” i said, even though I’m not sure of what to say….”Let me see the damage.” she looked at me questioningly, i may not have spoken on it, but I’m not stupid. i know she self harms herself. i seen it when me and her were making out in my room, which must have been what Abbie and her were talking about that one day…and if Louis knew….then why would he even cause it to happen again.

i pulled up her sleeves and examined her arms. “how’d you-“ “when we were making out in my room.” “oh…” “were are they?” “…..” “Nelly.” “Rib cage.” “…..’ “….and thighs….” i sighed. “gimme a minute.” i said as i pulled out my phone and speed dialed Louis’ number, i walked away and up the stairs. “Hey Niall, now’s not a good time…” Louis said slowly. “I don’t give a shit, you made her cut.” i said plainly. “I..I what? nono, she can’t even be hurt.” “oh why? because you believe she’s been cheating on you?” “what?” “she showed me the text Louis, how could you even do that? you’re supposed to talk to her about it!” “well how can i talk to her when all we do is fight?!” “Maybe stop being an ass and hear her out for once.” it went dead silent.

“You were wrong. end of discussion.” I said finally. “Niall? are you okay?” i heard Chanel ask. “yes darlin’ I’m fine.” i called back. “your mum’s back, she asked if you’d come down for a minute…” “okay i’ll be there in a sec.” Louis sighed. “Tell her i’m sorry.” “i think sorry is too little, too late.” i mumbled and hung up. i opened the door and walked downstairs. “Niall if you were going to ask Chanel over i would have bought her something.” “it’s okay Mrs. Horan, he didn’t know i was coming.” Nelly mumbled. “I’ll share my chips and pepsi with her.” i said with a slight smile. My phone vibrated. Hey it’s been a while, i haven’t heard from you guys, is Chanel and Louis okay? she hasn’t been over lately…or did i do something? should i text her?~Abbie i chuckled and replied. Yeah, text her, we’re okay, you should text me more often, where have you been .-. ~Nialler Just hanging with Jenny and her friends.~Abbie oh. ~Nialler I stopped texting and looked up to see Chanel texting, probably Abbie. it kind of upsets me that Abbie knows that her little group is our exe yet chooses to hang out with them.

Abbie’s POV

oh? oh? that’s all i get? oh? What? ~Abbie it took him several minutes to reply. It just bugs me that you know they’re our ex’s and yet you choose to hangout with them…~Nialler Last time i checked i was dating Liam though.~Abbie Nevermind, forget it. ~Nialler I hate how i’m always upsetting Niall….and i hate how my brother just up and left Chanel with such a text like that. i should tell Zayn….I called Zayn and waited for him to pick up. “hello?” “hey Zayn, you know what’s wrong with Chanel? because i do.” i said with a playful smirk. “eh…no, actually. she just kicked me out of her room, slammed it shut, stayed there for an hour then went over Niall’s.” “Louis broke up with her. just dumped her. for assuming she was cheating on him. and because they were apparently always fighting.” he sighed heavily. “Are..you serious?” he asked. “yuppers” i heard him growl slightly. “Is he home?” “yes.” “i’ll be over in a sec.” he said hanging up. I sat up in my bed, clapping my hands, it’s been a while since i had seen Louis get put in his place. i don’t know why but hearing that he broke up with her like that really ticked me off.

I heard a knock at the front door and Louis’ door open, i pretended to be sleep for a minute while he walked by my room. “who is it?” i heard him say. “Open the door Louis.” Zayn yelled. “Jesus Christ…” i heard Louis say. I heard the door open and then Louis yelped. I couldn’t help but giggle. wrong yes i know but he deserved it. “You had no legit reason to break up with her, so you go on assumption??” “It’s not an assumption! i know she was cheating on me!” “Where’s the proof!?” Zayn yelled. “……” “You don’t have any do you?” there was a pause. “exactly. Assumption. you didn’t deserve her anyway.” Zayn said then the front door slammed and i heard Louis coming back upstairs past my room and back into his. I smiled to myself and texted Chanel. Justice has been served. you’re welcome.~Abbie

Chanel’s POV

I don’t really understand what Abbie meant by her last text. I stared at it for the longest. “Justice served. You’re welcome.” “what?” I looked over and Niall seen the text too, i sighed and put my phone away. “I don’t know…” I walked upstairs and into the bathroom. just looking at myself in the mirror. “Your eating habits are bad.” I told myself. “Stop eating so much…” “actually you should eat a little more..” I hear Niall say, i jumped slightly. “Niall….” “what is that you see so bad about yourself?” “What do you see in me that’s so perfect that i don’t see?” he walked over to me and then he hugged me tightly. it was warm, of course i hugged him back…. “ Nothing about you is bad.” i looked at him sideways. “well I’m serious, everything about you is beautiful. All your imperfections make you just imperfectly perfect Nelly…” He leaned over and lifted my shirt. “ugh no. Niall. stop.” “No. Look.” I looked up at the mirror and cringed. “Why’d you tell me to look?”

“what do you see?” “A girl with many ugly fucking scars.” he sighed. “well fine, what do you see?” He smiled and played with my hair. “I see a broken girl, with hell of a story to tell. She keeps it hidden under all these scars because she’s afraid no one will take the time out of their life to listen….well Nelly…I’m here…and i don’t plan on leaving your life anytime soon.” He grabbed my hand and walked to his bedroom. “oh…wait…” he ran out for a minute and i walked around his room, i never took the time to examine his room and what he had in it. He had a lot of bon jovi up on his wall. I like Bon Jovi too, i like almost every type of music. “You like what you see?” I heard Niall say. I turned to see him and his bags of chips and his pepsi. I laughed and nodded. “I like old rock music.” “Me too…” i said quietly, sitting next to him on his bed. “I figured you did, i’ve heard and recognized some of the songs you sing out loud during lunch break.” He chuckled and i blushed a little.

So after a few hours of aimlessly talking about some of my life, i decided i should tell him that I’m adopted. i hadn’t told Louis yet nor Harry so this proves something right? I told him about how they treated me and how i got fed up and ran away, told him about Madam Rosiline. told him how me and Zayn met and how he taught me a lot in one day, then i told him how Zayn basically talked his parents into keeping and how we had to run away to america and how I’m still technically still an orphan. “Harry took me back a few days ago but he changed my look up and my style and i used my middle name and Zayn’s last name.” “So harry knows?” “no…he told me Zayn told him i couldn’t ever go back, because of something bad would happen, so he put me in disguised, and it worked, even Madam Rosiline didn’t notice me, she said i reminded her of the younger me but she didn’t know i was me.” Niall laughed. So what’s you’re real last name? “Cooper.”

“You know the song Hero by Enrique Inglesias?” Niall asked me. “Do I? Oh i LOVE that song!” I started singing the song and giggled a little. “what about viva la vida?” he asked me. “it’s not that old..but yes. you know the band called the starting line?” “course, blink 182?” “love them.” this went on for a few more hours and i was actually enjoying myself, we were munching on the chips an dining pepsi when Louis texted me. “don’t even read that. today is going to be a good day for you Nelly.” Niall said as he put my phone under his pillow. I shrugged and laughed as we carried on.
