~NIALL'S POV~

Me and the boys were eating pizza and playing Call of Duty while the girls and Sean were out. I'm still shocked that she had THREE FULL bags of WEED. Its fucking insane. And she looked so hot with that cigarette in her mouth, oh my god.. The things that girl does...

"Niall? You there mate?" Zayn said while snapping his fingers in my face.

"What?" I asked obliviously.

"Your down." He said an I groaned and put the game controller down and took another piece of pizza.

"Unlucky Irish-" Louis was cut off by a chorus of loud crashes upstairs. We all stood up alert and gave eachother questioning looks before heading upstairs to the sound. Probably a bad idea since that's how everyone in horror movies gets killed...

We got to the top of the stairs in silence and stood quietly for a moment to see if anymore noise would be made and what room its in. As guessed, another crash and in Nelly's room. We burst through the door and found her mirror on the floor in pieces, her wardrobe and chest of draws had been trashed with some draws on the floor or hanging out, her lamp was broken on the floor and a photo of her and her family was on the floor with the glass shattered. And the culprit, Joe, was stood at the window with a smug look and piercing glare.

"Give Nelly and the girls my best if you see them again. Oh and the queer too." He laughed bitterly and winked before jumping out the window and taking off.

"We need to find them. Right now." I said panicked from what he just said and angry at what he's done to Nelly's room.

"Some stay and some go. We need to fix this mess." Liam said and motioned to all the broken glass on the floor and the clothes hanging out of the draws and wardrobe.

"I'll go." Harry said and crossed his arms.

"Yeah I'll join him." I said.

"I'm coming." Louis said and Zayn and Liam nodded to tell us to go.


~NELLY'S POV~


"Who the fuck are they?!" Kayleigh asked and I gulped as a group of about 6 men came towards us with malicious grins. I guess the plans to go and get food at McDonalds aren't gonna happen.

"I have no fucking idea. But i think we need to run. Now." I said and we all took off in the direction of the car. We took the side streets and short cuts so we wouldn't be drawing attention to ourselves by going through crowds of people.

I grabbed Allison's hand, remembering she isn't the fastest at running, to help her keep up. She gave me a grateful smile and we made it to the car with no one on our tail. Or so I thought.

"Quite the runners." A gruff voice commented behind us.

We all turned behind us to find the men who were chasing us.

"Who are you?" Sean demanded.

"We were sent. Who is Nelly?" The guy who spoke before asked. I gulped.

"Nelly who?" I asked restraining my voice from shaking.

"Carter." He spoke up again and my heart was racing to the point where I thought you could see the beating through my shirt.

"I don't know her personally she goes to my school though." I lied through my teeth.

"Really? What are your names then?" Another guy asked.

"Louise Horan..." I said using my middle name and Niall's surname.

"Jane Tomlinson." Eleanor said following my idea.

"L..Lisa Johnson." Perrie said and I remembered that her middle name is Louise too. Oop shit.

"Andrew Davidson."Sean said using his middle name and a random surname.

"Annabel Shore." Kayleigh said making it up completely.

"Lauren Styles." Allison said copying me and El.

"Claire Payne." Dani said using our technique too.

"Hmm. Jeff I think we have the wrong kids." The main guy said trying to keep us from hearing but failing miserably. I looked at the others who seemed on edge and I gave Perrie an apologetic look since she made her name up randomly on the spot. She smiled to say its okay.

"Can we go then?" Sean asked.

"So... You don't know this girl?" He asked and showed an old picture of me when I had blonde hair and thankfully I don't look similar anymore.

"Um no. Not personally. I will tell her that people were looking for her though. Has she gone missing or something?" I asked trying to sound concerned.

"...something like that..." He said.

"So can we go then?" Perrie asked.

"Yes. Go and and don't speak of this." He said and turned away. Obviously were gonna tell someone that we were fricking chases by a group of creepy men who were looking for me. Fucking idiot.

Just as they went, Louis, Niall and Harry showed up with angry and worried expressions. They made their way to us quickly.

"Are you okay? Has anything happened?" Niall asked panicked.

"Uh...yeah. I think were okay now though but a group of men just like chased us asking for Nelly Carter. But we lied. So everything okay now." I said and forced a laugh to make it seem like nothing at all, but the boys still looked on edge about something.

"Why? Has something happened?" El asked.

"Uh yeah. Joe kinda trashed Nelly's room." Louis said and I was lost for words.

"What? I-" I stammered.

"We were downstairs and we heard crashing from upstairs. Your room is a mess but Liam and Zayn are at home sorting it out." Harry said.

"Out of ten how bad is it?" I asked choking on my own words.

"I solid 8. With ten one not being like your covers on the floor and some scrapped paper around and nothing being broken." Harry said.

"And he said to 'Give you and the girls his best if we see you again.'" Niall said.

"Oh so them guys were gonna like...I don't know-" Harry cut Ally off.

"Probably kidnap you and take you to Joe." He said seriously.

"I wanna go home." I sighed and walked into Niall's arms.

"Yeah we should get going." He said and rubbed my arms lightly.

We split to our cars and drove home. As soon as we arrived, I ran up to my room and found Zayn and Liam had collected parts of a broken mirror and glass. The photo of mom, dad and Wes was was broken so that's were the glass was from.

"Thanks so much for cleaning this up guys." I said and bent to give them a hug each.

"Don't mention it." Zayn said.

"I'll carry on with it if you want." I offered.

"Are you sure? Its a huge mess. And you might cut yourself on the glass." Liam warned.

"Yeah its fine I'll be careful." I said with a smile.

"Okay then." They said and got up.

"I'll just come down with you for a minute. I kinda deserted everyone." I forced a laugh.

"Okie doke." They said and I followed them down.

"Sorry for taking off I was dying to see how bad it was." I said to the others.

"Its fine. We were just thinking about how we need new locks." Harry chuckled.

"So, is this what its like in the life of Nelly Louise Carter nowadays?" Sean asked.

"Most. Not everyday. Psycho Joe pops up every now or then but we deal with him." I said.

"Its not the first time he's broke into a friends house she's staying at." Kayleigh said and the boys looked shocked.

"Really?" Perrie asked.

"Oh yes. He's broken into mine twice when my parents were out of town and I was minding the house with Nelly and Sean." Kayleigh said.

"Same happened at my house with the same situation but three times. So he's very familiar with us." Sean laughed bitterly.

"How many times has he been here?" Ally asked.

"Um... God knows. He's like a bad smell, impossible to get rid of." Niall sighed.

"Who wants a drink? Like a drink drink?" He asked and wondered into the kitchen.

"Me!" I called out.

"What do you want?" He asked.

"What do you have?" I called out.

"Do I really have to read them all out?" He whined an my eyes bulged.

"Them all?" I squeaked and hopped up.

"Ooh. Some collection you got here." I commented and scanned the bottles in the cupboard.

"Never know when you might need one." He shrugged.

"Couldn't be more right." I agreed with a sigh. He put his arm around me and kissed my head.

"We were serious about changing the locks you know. He can't just come in here whenever he feels like and trash your room." Niall said and grabbed the case of beer from the fridge.

"I'm sorry." I said. He's having to change the locks on his house because I brought trouble with me.

"What for?" Niall asked.

"If I didn't move in here you wouldn't have to be changing your locks. And now he's tormenting you all by breaking in." I said not making eye contact.

"Look. Look at me." He started and I looked at him.

"I would so rather you be here than in that place, alone, where he stole and attacked you more than once. Were here for you and I don't want you to apologize again for something not your fault. Understand?" He said with a smile.

"I understand." I said and rolled my eyes. Then I remembered something and my face dropped again.

"I will be back one sec." I said before running to my room.

"Nelly?" Dani called after me.

I carried on to my room and dragged the box from under my bed, not even shutting the door behind me. I put it on my bed carefully and realized that it wasn't closed properly. He had been in it. I opened it and found a note and something that made me physically sick to my stomach.

'I thought you might want these back! And I took a little something. Or a few something's. They are more mine than yours! See you soon Nelly.

-Your favorite uncle Joe.'

My underwear from when I was 14, when he raped me. He-he kept it. And now he's fucking giving me them back. I closed the box and ran to the bathroom and threw up.

"Nelly? Are you okay?" Kayleigh asked from behind me and gathered my hair from around my head for me.

"No. I'm literally sick of him. He won't give up. I haven't done a single thing to deserve everything he's done to me, and now he's coming here. These guys don't have anything to do with him but he's starting on them too. I-" I cut myself off and threw more up with tears running down my face.

"Shh...come here." She said opened her arms for me.

"Calm down." She cooed.

"I can't. You don't understand." I cried.

"Help me understand then." She said.

"I-I can't. This is too much. I can't. I'm sorry." I said and washed my face.

"Why? We tell eachother everything." She asked worried.

"I'm sorry. Anything but this, I can't think of it without wanting to puke." I apologized.

"Okay then. Well how can I help you then?" She asked and I smiled.

"There's nothing I just need to be alone for a minute." I said and she nodded.

"Just come down when your ready." She said with an understanding smile and went downstairs.

I trudged back through into my room. I can't open the box but the note is on my bed. I lay down horizontally on my back and cried. Wait what did he take?! I slowly opened the box and threw the underwear behind me before taking everything out of the box.

After about ten minutes of searching through all of the things in the box, Niall knocked at the door with a worried expression.

"What's wrong babe?" He asked and came to me, dodging the mess what's still around the room. I passed him the note and he looked pissed.

"What is he giving you back?" He asked and I sat frozen for a moment.

"Uh. Nothing it doesn't matter." I said but he seemed unconvinced.

"Nelly, your in bits about something and I don't think its just that he has took something. You can tell me anything." He said softly and brushed some hair from my face. Tears blurred my vision and I slowly reached behind me. I can't.

"No, its okay. Really. I'm just exaggerating. Its been a...stressful day." I lied and forced a smile. Niall knew something was up though and he gave me a look to say it. I sighed and put my hand being my back again.

I can't believe I'm doing this. Niall nodded to urge me on. I pulled the bra and panties from behind me and Niall seemed angry.

"He stole your underwear?!" He asked furiously and I shook my head.

"He kept them and he's giving them back." I choked out.
