[Favoritism between twins]
You ran to the back lounge room and curled yourself up into a ball on the couch before you just sobbing quietly. Being like this for only a few minutes, a knock cane on the wall as you looked up to see Harry frowning at you.
"Can I come in?" He asked as you turned your back to him.
"Aren't I-I to ugly for y-you?" You choked out as Harry came over and sat behind you.
"The opposite actually." He muttered pulling you back into his chest. "You're so damn pretty (Y/N) and everything about you is perfect." You cried harder as he pulled your head back onto his shoulder before wrapping his arms around your neck.
His skin was so warm and he was so welcoming. You were glad he decided to not hate you.
"I tore them a piece of my mind before I left." He whispered looking down at your distraught face. "I told them exactly what they needed to hear..."
*Flashback *
I watched (Y/N) slam the door and my rage just took over. I don't know what it was, the laughs, the cruelty, (Y/N)'s hurt face before she left, but something had made me snap. And I was about to let everyone know.
Standing up, I walked to the end of the living room with balled fists and clenched teeth. They thought it was goddamn funny to be like that to a nearing adult. How dare they.
"How dare you..." I sneered as they all calmed making me angrier. "HOW FUCKING DARE YOU!" I snapped wiping the smiles off of their faces.
"Wow Haz, chil-"
"You don't get to call me that!" I growled at Louis who shut his mouth real quick. "You should be fucking ashamed of yourselves!"
"It was only a joke-"
"A joke that's gone on for two months!" I yelled down at Liam. "Picking on her flaws! Her personality! Habits! Just who she is! It bloody sickens me! AND YOU!" I pointed at Niall who swallowed down hard. "You're her brother! You're meant to protect her and stand up for her! BUT YOUR DICK IS SO FAR UP YOUR ASS YOU DON'T NOTICE!"
"H-Harry-"
"Oh can it (Y/T/N)!" She immediately shut her mouth as I began my rant on her. "Don't act like you're so innocent! You didn't defend her either! Your own fucking twin!" She looked down at her lap knowing I was right. "The only reason you didn't say anything was because you just LOVE these boys buying you things! You're a spoilt brat and I'm so fucking ashamed of One Direction right now! I wish I had never net any of you."
With multiple wide eyes staring at me, I left the room in search for (Y/N).
*Flashback*
You at this point had turned and snuggled against Harry. He defended you which brought more relieved tears than you thought.
"I just care so damn much." Harry tightened his large hands around you and let you freely cry into his shoulder. "Don't change who you are ok. I love who you are."
Blinking back, you leant back giving Harry an opportunity to cup your face.
"When the bus stops tomorrow, do you want to go somewhere? Do something?" You smiled at his generosity with a small nod. "Don't dress up. We'll go shopping in our pajamas if you'd like. We can buy more Xbox games and food. We can do whatever you want."
You couldn't help but admire Harry. He was truly a pure soul. Nodding, you kissed his cheek as he cuddled you both close to the couch.
You didn't know if things would change. If you would finally be accepted. But as long as you had Harry and as long as you kept your head high, you decided to not care about anything harsh thrown at you.
But little did you or Harry know that Niall sat in the crowded room, guilt running through him. He never knew why he treated you that way or why his sister had encouraged it. But he knew it was entirely his fault. He wanted to fix the deep cuts he had made into the wound, but he was to scared and to full of pride to admit he was wrong.
So he guessed things would have to stay the way they were.
