Adopted by One Direction

Chapter 7

~ Alexis POV ~

"I'll give you a chance, but this is the only one I will be giving so dont mess it up. If you really care then I know you won't," I said while they were still laughing, but that soon stopped.

"Like I said before, I promise. I will be there to help you through this. All of us will," Louis said to me.

I smiled at him then jumped of the table hugging him tightly. He was surprised at first but returned it quickly.

"Please...pleassse don't let me down," I whispered into his chest. "Never," he said back.

~ Louis POV ~

This is going to work out, it has to. She didn't have to tell me, I already knew she had been through a lot.

She pulled away from the hug and smiled up at me.

"Your the first person I actually feel I can trust, Louis, and that is very hard for me. Please don't break that trust, I've been hurt so many times," she said cracking at the end tears at the edges of her blue eyes.

She hugged me again and I mouthed to the boys, 'we need to talk'. They nodddd.

"Lex?" I said.

"Yes?" Could I pease talk to the boys for a minute?" She nodded in return.

Then she left the room to go to her own.

"This has to work,"I told them. "I just feel there is something in her that's broken that she so dearly wants fixed and I think we can fix that."

"I want this to work to, but we will need to find out what happened to her, she is obviously hiding something." Harry said.

"She'll tell us eventually, don't worry," I said. "I'll go and talk to her know."

I walked up to her room and knocked on the door lightly. "Who is it?" She asked.

"It's Louis."

I could here her shuffling around in the room then she opened the door.

"Will you please tell me? The things that happened those years ago?" I know you told Eleanor and she won't tell me," I said to her.

She sighed and motioned for me to come in the room.

She walked over to her bed and sat looking deep in thought. "Do you really want to know?" She asked me.

I hesitated for a moment. Did I? Was I prepared for what she was about to tell me? I nodded.

Then she poured her heart out to me telling me everything.

*****

After she told me I felt like someone had taken my heart and smashed it into a million pieces.

This girl has had so much happen to her and she was so young.

She had tears streaming down her cheeks and I knew that she needed to have someone there for her, to be able to understand her and comfort her.

I was willing to be that person. I engulfed her in a hug and I heard sobs escape her. "Shh...it's alright...shhhh...I'm here, love," I said rocking her back and forth in my arms.

Then I felt her body go cold and freeze. She was shaking and I could hear her whimpering and she started to scream.

This is the way she looked that time I saw her in that room at the orphanage. I just hugged her tighter.

She was having a flash back. Jenn told me about these. Then I heard her take in a sharp breath.

The flash back was over. I looked down at her and saw her breathing heavy and she started to sit herself up in my arms.

She got and turned towards me. "Louis..." Was all she said before blacking out.

I quickly got out my phone and dialed 999. "Boys!" I called to them loudly. I heard all there feet pounding up the stairs and then they came into the room quickly.

They all had confused faces, the. They saw her. The girls body lying in the ground. It looked so lifeless and I was sooo scared.

Scared that this may be the end, and she didn't deserve any off the things that happened to her.

This couldn't be the end, I was willing to do anything for the girl in front of me, to help her. She needed help and I wanted to fix her.

I promised, and if she left that promise would be broken.

I saw flashing lights from outside the window and 3 paramedics came in the room.

They took her outside and put her on a gurney.

"One of you can come with us," they told us.

"I will!" I said immediately. I had to, she trusted me and after all I was closest to her even though we've only know her for a few days.

I hoped on the back of the ambulance and we quickly drive to the hospital.

******

I was sitting in the waiting room-very impatient because.... Well she is my sister/daughter and...well for all I know she could be in a coma or...worse.

"Mr. Tomlinson?" I heard someone say. "That's me!" I said quickly.

"Is she going to be okay...what happened,"

"We'll she is alive, but.....
