Chapter 25

Abigails P.O.V.

I was awake all night, restlessly turning in my sleep. We landed in florida yesterday, and it was hot, but that was the least of my wories. 

My Uncle comes home tomorrow, well, today considering it's 3 a.m. I'm beyond scared. I don't even want to know what his reaction will be when he sees I'm not there. I was practically shaking, I felt sick, I felt like I was going to die; I was a ticking time bomb.

"Abs, you up?" I heard someone whisper. I sat up and looked over at Lou as she flicked on the dim light. "I can hear you shaking from here, you okay?"

"Uh, yeah, just nervous." I whispered trying not to wake up Lux. Yesterday the boys had off since we just got here and we stayed in and ordered pizza and stuff and I could tell they were trying really hard to do that.

"Don't worry just try to go to sleep, you'll be fine babe." She smiled before flicking off the light, the room faling into a darkness.

I laid my head on my pillow shutting my eyes trying to fall asleep

I could see my breath float up into the sky as I exhaled my feet carrying me down the street. "Mum where are we going?" I asked anxiously trying to keep up with her quick pace. 

"Somewhere better." She answered simply as we stopped in front of a small house. She turned around and grabbed my hand before tugging me behind her. "You're going to meet your Uncle Stan." She sighed as we stopped, the sound of her knocks traveling through the splinted door.

"Ah hello Maria." A man a few years older than my mum smiled answering the door. "And you must be little Abigail, what a pretty girl." He smiled his finger tracing under my chin. 

"Hello Stan, thank you for taking her, I just can't deal with it anymore. It's too much." My mother said her voice cracking. What did she mean?

"No problem I'll take good care of her." He grinned grabbing my hand and pulling me from my mothers side.

"Mum whats happening?" I asked desperatly as she turned away. "Mum!"

"I'm sorry Abby, I love you!" She called before running down the pathway. I tried to run after her but my Uncle just tugged me back slamming the door.

"Don't worry Abby, you'll be fine. Let's sit." He led me over to the couch where I sat next to him tears pricking at my eyes. "Don't cry, you're too pretty for that." He pouted pushing my hair back. "I'm going to take good care of you."

"W-whats going on?" I whimpered my lip quivering.

"Nothing, Mum just needs a break so you're going to stay with me and help me out with a few things.... have you ever kissed a boy?" He questioned turning more to face me.

"Uh, once." I mumbled feeling awkward. 

"Just once? You've never gone further?" He pestered me with questions that I found extremely uncomfortable. 

"Uh no, I'm only 13." I laughed nervously twiddling my fingers. He made a humph noise before grabbing my chin. "Wh-" He pulled his lips to mine and I pulled away quicker than ever. "What!"

"Shut up, I said you'd be helping me and I'm going to teach you how to do that." He whispered grabbing my hand and placing it on his crotch. I tugged and pulled my arm away but his firm grasp held it down. 

"Stop it! You're sick!" I screamed flailing away from him.

"Just the help up! You're mother got rid of you, you're mine now you'll do what I say! I need money and you're going to get me it but you can't do that if you don't know how!" He screamed in my face making me shrink back.

That's when I began to cry. I knew exactly what he was talking about, what he wanted me to do. "No." I whispered under my tears.

"Don't fight it, it will only hurt worse. I'm helping you, trust me." He whispered caressing my cheek. 

"But Uncle Stan you can't!" I shouted jumping back.

"Rule one, I'm not your Uncle Stan anymore, call me sir or face punishments." He yelled standing up, his body towering over me. That's when I felt his hand collide with my still cold skin, that's when I knew my life would be hell. "And theres plenty more where that came from!"

I backed up as he walked toward me, absentmindedly walking down a hall we have yet to visit. He shoved me sideways, my body hitting the floor with a thud. I looked around and it was a bedroom, shit.

"Perfect." He smirked. He leaned down grabbing me by the arms and throwing me onto the bed. He crawled on top of my pinning me down as I squirmed relentlessly. "Now time for your tutorial."

"Abigail! Are you alright?" I heard a calm voice as my eyes shot open. I was hot and I was sweating, my face was wet with tears. My throat hurt and my guess was that I was screaming. "Abby."

"I-I'm sorry." I whispered looking over at Louis. He puled me into his chest rubbing my back soothingly. "I had a nightmare.... it was the first day I got there." I cried quietly.

"Abigail it's fine, you're okay now." Louis hushed rubbing my back lightly. I pulled back looking up at him as the sun was coming up. "Don't cry, you're too pretty for that." I screamed jumping away from him off the bed.

That sentence came out of Louis' mouth but I saw my Uncles face flash by and his voice saying it the night I got there, when I was crying over my mother. "Abigail I-"

"No, no, go a-away." I demanded stepping back. I backed up until my back hit the wall. Louis stopped in his tracks a few feet from me, a puzzled look on his face.

"What's wro-"

"What's going on?" Niall asked walking into the room where Louis and I stood several feet apart. "I heard screaming, what did you do to her?" Niall interegated Louis immediatly.

"N-nothing! I came in to see if she was okay because she had a nightmare and she just screamed when I said something I guess?" Louis looked over at me his face scrunched up in confusion.

"It's nothing I'm fine." I mumbled. "Sorry Louis." I walked past the two and into the bathroom, I needed a nice warm shower.

Niall's P.O.V.

"She's scared." I told Louis as we walked back into our room where most of the boys were sitting eating breakfast. "It's fine."

"You know, now that her Uncle is back he knows she's gone and he's going to be looking forward. We're kind of big all around the world so you have to figure out how to keep her small even with us." Liam explained and he was right.

"I have a solution!" Louis piped up from the door frame. "A make-over."

"What do you mean a make-over?" Abigail asked as Lou sat her down in a chair. 

"I mean I'm going to change a few things so that you're not recognizable but still somewhat look like you." She smiled brushing out Abigails long hair. 

"Uh... why though?" She questioned looking up at Lou.

"Because, your Uncle is back, he knows you're gone, he's going to be looking for you, and he's going to try and find you. Everyone knows us, he probably does too, if he sees a picture of you with us he knows where you are." Liam cut in and Abigail nodded.

"I didn't even think about that, that makes me more nervous." She mumbled under her breath. "Just do what you have to do."

"Alrighty, you boys out! Go do your signing or whatever promotion thing you have today and take Leane with you instead of me! Toodles!" Lou grinned as she shut the door.

"Make sure she still looks pretty!" I called as I walked out of the room. "Even though you still would be either way." I winked at Abigail as she shook her head smiling.

"Uh, okay, we've got an interview today so get ready and let's go." Harry clapped as we all spurred off into doing what we needed to do.

"So boys we understand you have a new member on the road with you?" The busty blonde asked sitting forward in her chair.

"Yes but please no questions." Liam responded trying to be as polite as possible.

"Aw okay, I understand I mean I don't blame you, I saw the other interview and things got heated." She laughed throwing her head back but her laughing seized when she saw we were not laughing. 

She cleared her throat and shuffled through the cards, can this just be over.  I kind of zoned out the rest and to be honest the rest of the boys did too, we were just off.

We had come to really care about Abigail, I know I did, she was amazing. The others looked at her as a little sister almost so to see someone you care about so wrecked and scared is an awful feeling.

"Alright well thank you boys!" The blonde smiled, her white teeth out lined in pink lipstick. We said our goodbyes before heading out to the car to get back to the hotel. "I can't wait till we get to New York." Louis grinned breaking the silence as we were almost to the hotel.

"Yeah same, one of my favorite places." Zayn agreed staring out the window.

"Well we have 4 nights of concerts here and then a few in Boston and then to New York." Liam told us looking at his calander in his phone. 

"Boys, let's go." I hopped out of the car and we pushed past the screaming fans and paps right into the hotel.

"I wonder what Abigail looks like." Louis pondered as we took the lift up. I was excited too see what Lou did, I just hope she didn't change her too much, she was so beautiful.

When we got to the hotel room we walked in to find it empty but small chatter from the kitchen area.

"We're home!" Louis and Harry shouted at the same time. I chuckled walking into the kitchen and Abigail turned around all of us stopping gasping.

"Woah..." I mumbled looking at her. Her hair was no longer th dark brown, it was an almost reddish brown color, auburn if you will. It was cut and it looked so healthy and long not to mention the shine on it. Her skins looked so vibrant and glowing and she was in such a natural looking make up but she looked so gorgeous, but too be honest, I wouldn't have recognized here really. It's amazing what the change of your hair could do.

"Well, how do I look?" She laughed standing up.

"Uh, y-you look good." I stuttered out. "Really good." I mumbled.

"Why, thank you." She giggled. "We made cookies for you guys, chocolate chip and M&M." She walked over to the little microwave taking them out. 

"Mm, perfect!" I laughed rubbing my hands together and taking the plate for her.

"And since we are all extremely tired and lazy we thought we might just have a lazy movie marathon." Zayn suggested and everyone seemed content with that.

"Ah I have to go meet up with Tom in a bit, him and Lux are flying in and we're going out to visit some friends." Lou pouted standing up from her chair.

"Aw that's okay." Abigail sighed. Her and Lou brought everything back over to their room while the lads and I changed into something more comfortable. 

"Alright, funny movies." Liam sat down looking at the extensive movie collection Harry brought with him. He literally brought a suitcase of movies full to the top.

"Abigail loves disney movies." I piped up from my seat on the couch stretching my legs out as to save a spot for Abigail. Liam nodded and pulled out every disney movie in there which was about twelve all together.

"No one told me we needed pajamas." Abigail huffed turning around and going back to her room to change. We picked the first movie, Lion King, and waited for her to return.

"About time!" Louis chuckled as Abigail gave him a cocky smile walking over to us. She scanned the couches looking for a spot. I slowly moved my legs and she looked over at me smiling. 

She sauntered over falling onto the couch grabbing a cookie off the plate in my lap.

We weren't into the movie and it was the part where Scar drops Mufasa into the canyon where the herd of animals is going through. I looked over at Abigail and she was in tears, as was Harry and Liam. 

"This part gets me everytime." Abigail cried wiping at her tears. I laughed quietly throwing an arm around her, smooth. 

I looked over at Louis and he gave me the thumbs up as she leaned into my chest watching the movie intently. I could stay like this all day.

We were on out sixth movie, Finding Nemo and we had progressed to Abigail laying down her head on my lap as I played with her hair, so soft.

It was then that there was a quiet knock on the door and everyone looked confused before Liam got up to answer it everyone else looking back at the movie.

I heard a voice but couldn't make out who it was. I looked up as Liam came back followed by, Ed?! He put his finger on his lips as he looked down at Abigail who was completely locked into the movie unaware. 

He walked behind the couch and stood over me a smile on his face as he reached over flicking her nose and moving back.

"Ow Niall, what was that for?" She whined looking up at me.

"N- I mean that wasn't... me?" I was confused how had she not seen ed behind me. She just rolled her eyes and looked at the tv. I looked behind me to see Ed crouching down behind the couch. 

He stood up again reaching over but this time he placed his hands over her eyes. She quirmed sitting up trying to remove his hands. "What the hell?" She mumbled swatting at his hands.

"Guess who?" He chuckled and she froze turning slowly as he reomoved his hands. Her mouth fell open and she looked from Ed to me and back at Ed. 

She screamed jumping over the sofa and tackling him to the floor in a massive hug. "No way!"

"Yes way!" He laughed as they both rose to their feet again. "Surprise! I was in Miami and I wanted to stop by."

I watched as a huge smile spread across her face. She looked so happy, as it should be.
