Before You Leave Me Today (A One Direction Fanfic! <3)

Before You Leave Me Today

*HARRY'S POV*

"What the hell happened?!" Liam growled in an angry whisper. I was dreading this, but I knew I had to explain everything.

"This'll be good.." Louis whispered to Zayn. I gave him a death glare.

"Louis. Shut up." I sighed. This was it... Where I felt all the guilt in the world because I specifically told Liam I would stay out of trouble. Here it goes. "Okay... Listen first, judge later..." I started. Liam raised his eyebrows at me and I sighed. "Alright.. So I went to the mall just like I said I would." I started. None of the lads looked impressed, so I continued. "andifoundthisreallyhotgirltherebutshewaswithherboyfriendbutidecidedtofollowheranywayandherboyfriendstartrdpoundingonhersoijumpedinandbeattheguyupandnowthereisascaredandbeatupgirlonourcouch." I said as fast as I could. I was gasping from air from the lack of oxygen I just gave myself and waited for their reactions.

"Oh god..." Niall whispered as he made his way to the kitchen. He was done. He always goes to the kitchen... But he was using it as an excuse to get away before the yelling came this time... I knew. Evil leperachaun...

"Oh. My. God. Harry are you crazy?!" Liam started his outburst.

"What was I supported to do, Liam? Just let him hurt her?" I asked looking at her. I saw Liam's face fall as he thought about that. He sighed.

"Management is going to kill you. So good luck.." he said.. A little calmer.

"Management won't have to know. I was wearing a hood the whole time and there weren't any paparazzi. They won't even know."

"Yeah.. Because they aren't going to notice a dying girl on our couch!" Liam yelled again. God Liam, calm down. She wasn't dying. I thought. I hoped. Liam walked out in annoyance, Niall was still stuffing his face and hiding in the kitchen, and Zayn and Louis lost interest. Now it was just me. And... Her. I didn't even know her name. She was so beautiful though. I sat down on the couch next to her fragile body. Now up close, I really noticed how skinny she was. She was unnaturally skinny. You could see her bones. Her body was so frail it concerned me. She was still passed out, so I took this opportunity to my advantage. I took her hand and held it in both of mine. She was so beautiful. Her face was perfect. Everything about her was completely perfect. Even knocked out on the couch, I could tell she was different than other girls. I couldn't tell what though... Just something about her. I moved a piece of her soft brown hair our of her face and ran my hand down her cheek.

"I'm sorry, love." I whispered. "I should have been quicker. I'm sorry." I kissed the tip of her nose, and left her there to sleep.

*TAITUMS POV*

"Yeah, because they aren't going to notice a dying girl on our couch!" this was this first thing I heard as I drifted back to conscienceness. Dying? I'm not dying... Am I? Well... I don't even care if I die. I can die right now and I won't even care. I actually think dying would be better for me right now. Sometimes, when things are calm... And I'm not hurting.. Which let me tell you, isn often... I wish I was dead. Actually... I don't wish I was dead. I wish I was never born. If I was never born, my dad wouldn't have started beating my mom. Therefore, he wouldn't have killed her when I was 14. He killed her because of me... I wish I was never born. My mom would still be alive, and my dad wouldn't have killed her. And he wouldn't be hurting me everyday. And Andrew wouldnt be hurting me either. And I wouldn't be here... In this strange place.. With a bunch of strangers... Who will most likely do strange things to me when I wake up. Which is exactly why I am still "asleep" right now. I stayed as still as possible while my mind went crazy. I tuned the voices out, and just let y mind go crazy. That was, until I felt the couch sink next to my hip. I made sure I stayed completely frozen while someone was there. I felt a pair of eyes studying me, and it bugged me I couldn't see who. But I had to keep still, and keep my eyes shut. I was barely breathing when the person took my hand. It was a guy's hand. I wondered who... But not enough to take my mind off of our hands. I was cautious.. I really didn't think I could take another hit today, and I can usually endure a lot. He moved a strand of hair from my face, and I felt tingles in me. What was I doing. I didn't even know who this was and I was getting tingles just from his touch? Taitum, stop. The last thing you can let yourself do is fall for a guy. He will only hurt you. I scolded myself. Then, I heard him talking to me.

"I'm sorry, love." His voice was silky, deep, and very British. I felt tingles again. What? Just from his voice? Really? "I should have been quicker. I'm sorry." I heard him whisper, then he kissed my nose, and walked away. I made sure he was completely gone, and slowly opened my eyes. I didn't even realize I was smiling. I didn't know what was wrong with me. I didn't even know him! I couldn't like him. Besides, if I liked someone, it would make my escape plan that much harder. That's when I realized... My plan that I had for myself... Had to take place Saturday. It had to. That gave me 6 days. So I had to be friendly. Maybe they'll let me stay with them. I couldn't go home until after my mission was complete.
