Zalfie decide to adopt a girl called Hayley living in Brighton Orphanage. However, Hayley suffers from bad anger issues which can get her into trouble easily at school and around the carehome but Zalfie feel as if they can take on Hayl...
I wake up, and I am cold and tired. I feel my side and there is the definite bumps of stitches there. I go to bend my right arm but soon come to the realisation that it was in a cast.
I look over and see a acoustic guitar. i pick it up and rest it against my chest. I lean my cast hand ready to pluck the strings and my left hand to do the cords.
Now I had to think of a song.
And slowly I begin to sing, a song I just made up on the spot.
[verse] Been waiting for a couple thousand years for someone like you, To be able to make me feel good and bad at the same time. The truth hurts that you are just a one time person, But sometimes those are the best ways to go.
[bridge] People say that sticks and stones will break my bones, And words will never hurt me, But when will that becomes a myth and not a fantasy? Please tell me it's time to leave...
[chorus] Broken bones around my chest, Make it so hard to believe, How do you make me feel so bad, But at the same time so good?
Words that seem to escape my lips, When did we loose our grip? Oh, I think that now we are now just, Broken bones, broken bones.
[verse] How does a couple thousand years pass so fast? Maybe it's because it's you in my dreams. But sometimes the real is bad enough for you and me, Baby please come back and make me clean.
[bridge] People say that sticks and stones will break my bones, And words will never hurt me, But when will that becomes a myth and not a fantasy? Please tell me it's time to leave...
[chorus] Broken bones around my chest, Make it so hard to believe, How do you make me feel so bad, But at the same time so good?
Words that seem to escape my lips, When did we loose our grip? Oh, I think that now we are now just, Broken bones, broken bones. Broken bones, broken bones...
[hook] Oh- don't look at me, Sometimes the galaxy is smaller to me, Don't leave me so frail, Just leave me be.
Make me feel so small, Wonder what I meant at all, Maybe it's just that time, Just that time...
[chorus] Broken bones around my chest, Make it so hard to believe, How do you make me feel so bad, But at the same time so good?
Words that seem to escape my lips, When did we loose our grip? Oh, I think that now we are now just, Broken bones, broken bones.
I finish and hear clapping. I look towards the door. There stood Joe, Caspar, Zoe, Alfie, Troye, Tyler and Phan 😏.
I feel myself burn up as they came over, "since when did you play guitar?" Joe asks.
"I use to play," I say, "Just not as often."
"That... that was amazing," Troye smiles, "Infact..." he sighs, "I want to make you an offer."
I gasp and look at him.
"I... I want to give you the opportunity to, maybe, get a record deal from the same company as I do. I am sure they will love you and your creativity... and you can feature on my tours and all sorts... and with you on my next song, this could really boost up your career... so what do you say?"
Troye's eyes sparkled as he spoke. I smiled at him, "I'd love to!"
Troye hugs me, "Thank you, thank you, you won't regret it Hayley! And soon you will hear your own song on the radio."
I smile ear to ear as Martin comes into the room, "Here are the results, sister."
"Hey, no need to be so gruff, man," Dan laughs.
Martin stares at him, "And what are you to talk? She just wasted precious hospital time for nothing!"
"Leave him alone you bully!" I yell, "You're the one that suggested the DNA test."
"Ye I didn't think you would be stupid enough to say yes!" He yelled.
"CALM DOWN WILL YOU!" Dan yells.
"So your telling me to calm down mate?" My brother yells, "Have you had to have a DNA test on a sister that she didn't believe you?"
Dan suddenly stops. His bottom lip trembles before Phil pulls him into a warm hug, "Don't you ever bring anything like that up to my boyfriend," Phil spits.
"Aww, YouTuber can't take the thought of being beaten?" My brother jeers.
"JUST SHUT UP!" Dan yells, "YOU WANT TO KNOW THE TRUTH? FINE!-"
"Dan you don't have to tell him," Tyler says, putting a hand on Dan's shoulder.
"NO! The cow is just a bitch and wants to poke their nose in everyones business," Dan snaps, eyes locked with Martin's.
"So go on then? What is gay boy hiding?"
"MY SISTER WAS KIDNAPPED AND MURDED!" Dan yelled, "WHEN SHE WAS SIX YEARS OLD!"
I was in shock. Never did he tell his viewers this... maybe it was a too hard a subject.
I looked at Dan who was now crying into Phil's chest.
"I HOPE YOUR HAPPY MARTIN!" I yell, "JUST GET OUT AND I NEVER WANT TO SEE YOU AGAIN!"
"Hayley..."
"GET OUT! You never upset my friends like that! SO GET OUT BEFORE I... I KILL YOU!" I yell.
Martin turns and leaves. I lie against my cushions and breathe in and out, calming myself down.
Alfie comes over and hugs me, "You ok sugar?"
I nod weakly, "yeah I guess."
But deep down i knew I wasn't.
