CHAPTER 4:
*Dans POV*
She is scared, hurt, and
somehow is still standing strong. I think that she might be one of the bravest people I know. I don't understand how she is able to stand this. I just want to fix this for her. She is just so funny and she is so deserving of something to make her happy, I really think I can do that for her. I can't help but wonder why anyone would do this to her, or anyone for that matter. She didn't deserve to have this done to her. I sit staring at her. She is so beautiful, her and all her scars. I wonder if she ever had a boyfriend in America. There is no way she hasn't dated. Well, I guess you don't have to be first, you just have to make it into the race...
*Phil's POV*
I think Dan likes her. I mean his eyes are the size of saucers. I mean she is very beautiful and if she wasn't obviously hitting on Dan just as much as he was with her I might think I have a change with her. Her background is terrible. It terrifies me how this is part of the world. Her scars call for my help. Dan and I know what we need to do. We sit and listen to her talk. She is crying but there isn't a break in her voice. She is being strong for us. She doesn't need to be. I like her just the way she is.
*Y/N POV*
They have been sitting here with me for around an hour. We just talked about me and alllllllllllll my issues. I feel kind of vulnerable. They know me better then anyone ever has.
"I, um, have never really told anyone about my home life" I stutter.
"Well I'm glad you trust us that much" dan puts his hand on my shoulder.
Phil's eyes wander to Dan's hand and stares intensely at it. I look into Phil's eyes and out my head on his shoulder. He exhales almost in relief. I lift my head from his shoulder and kiss his cheek. I look at him and he has a huge smile on his face. I look at Dan and give him a peck on the cheek as well, he looked sad.
"Thank you for letting me talk" I stutter, keeping my head down.
"You need to know that we are here to talk anytime" Phil says.
"I should probably go back to my flat now" I say as I stand up.
I look at the clock and see that it is almost 9 o'clock.
"Ok, well let us know if you need to talk or anything" Dan said as they both stood up.
"I will" I say.
I give them hugs and they say goodbye as I walk out the door. I walk down the stairs and put my key in the door and my flat make is sitting n the couch. She has tear stains running down her face, she is on the phone. She hangs up. I walkover to her and ask her if everything is ok. Her mother has died and she just found out. We sit and I comfort her for a while and then she looks at me and tells me she can't take care of her half of the rent anymore because she is moving to Brighton.
"That's ok thanks ok" I say I rub her shoulder.
"I'm so glad you are going to be" she said.
"I've got to start packing up my stuff, and um call the landlord. I'm so sorry that you just moved in and now you have to move out. Unless you can pay the rent by yourself" she said as she walked away.
"When are you leaving?" I ask.
"Um as soon as possible. I'm gonna go sign the paperwork tomorrow and we have to be out by tomorrow afternoon" she said.
I nod. There is no way I can pay for this place by myself. This flatmate actually payed for more than half of my the rent. She knew my predicament and understood what I am going through. So now that she can't pay for her part I don't know what I will do. I give her a hug and tell her not to worry and to feel better.
I go to my room and put all, like 8 of my things in the cardboard box I used a couple days ago. I just lay down on my mattress and nod off to sleep. Now what will I do? How will I survive? I have no money, I spent it all on the rent for this flat. Will I have t move back home? They won't take me back in. Even if they did the plane fair is too much. I dream that I am homeless on the streets of London, its not so bad. Of course winter is coming and ill freeze to death out there. People do it all the time. I can make it work.
