"They look so cute."

"Their to close, I don't like it."

"Aw Harry, are you jealous?"

"Well, kinda I can't even hug her anymore because she doesn't understand I love her."

"I swear if he ever hurts her I will rip his head off."

"Nick, calm down. Isn't that your best friend."

"Liam, yes but all the guys in her past hurt her. You, Dad, Harry, Zayn, and me. Niall has been the innocent one."

"Yeah, we regret it though."

"I just feel like she doesn't care about me anymore, she only wants Ethan."

"That's not true mate."

"Dad, when's the last time you've had a decent conversation with Winnie?"

"I don't know, it been a while."

"We had a broke girl, we fixed her and know it seems as if she doesn't need us. Only Ethan. He took my sister away."

"Nick, calm down."

"I can't, I just can't."

~Nicks Pov~

"Nick, calm down."

"I can't, I just can't." I said and then I felt two warm arms come around me and sat on my lap with tears flowing. It was Winnie.

"Winnie, you heard that conversation didn't you?" I asked her and she nodded.

"Why would you think I don't need you. If I didn't have you and the boys I would have a hole in my heart that can't to be filled." Winnie said crying even more. She got up and got dressed in her dance clothes and ran downstairs.

~Harry's Pov~

"Hazzy, come here please." Winnie asked as she came into the living room and has on spandex and shorts that said 'dance' on the bum, and a white tank top and a hot pink crop top that said '1D forever'. she looks so cute.

"Come where?" I asked confused.

"I'll show you." she said as she held out her hand. I grabbed it and we walked hand in hand.

~Winnie's Pov~

"Tell me if this routine is good?" I asked and I done 'love more'. I stopped and looked and saw Harry with his jaw dropped. I ran up and hugged him.

"I love you Hazzy. No matter how many arguments that we have or if I tell you I hate you, I love you." I said and kissed his cheek. "I gotta go." I said and ran to my room again. I put on a hot pink sports bra, hot pink shorts, pink, and pink high tops. I put on some jogging pants, and Crop top. I grabbed my headphones and my iPhone and I ran down stairs and saw a unfamiliar face on the couch.

"Hey I'm Austin. And you must be Winnie." he said standing up.

"Yep, that's me." I said smiling. Then, I heard footsteps whose were Ethan thank goodness. This boy is literally staring me down.

"Hey Lollie." Ethan said as he kissed my cheek.

"Hey Ethan." I said side hugging him.

"Why did I come down here...oh right Liam?" I asked myself and he looked up. "can we can to the boxing ring?" I asked waiting for an answer. instead I got an answer from Dad.

"Winnie, your not going and getting hurt." he said and I scoffed.

"Do you not remember the fight between me and Liam?" I asked in a 'duh' voice.

"Yeah, so what?" he asked crossing his arms.

"Do you remember when I first met you at the orphanage?" I asked and he nodded. "I got in that fight with Nick and Jake, then, I fought Hazzy, and I slapped you." I said seeing if he would catch on.

"What's your point?" he asked looking confused.

"In all them fights I barely got hurt, you said Liam was the strongest in your group?" he nodded. "in that fight I only hurt my back and my side."

"Let's go Liam." I said as I went to dad and gave him a hug and a kiss on the cheek. And the all the others besides Austin, I just waved at him.

"Liam, don't let anything happen to her." Zayn said serious.

"Gosh, they are so protective." I said as I got into the car. I just put my headphones in and looked out the window.

"We're here." Liam announced and I got out.

"Let's go to the punching bag first." Liam said as we walked towards bag and Liam handed me black boxing gloves.

"I'm gonna say a or b and hit the bag. If I say A hit with your right fist, if I-" I cut him off.

"Liam, I got this." I said as he said A and B.

"I got one question." he said.

"Shoot." I said.

"Why do you like boxing?" he asked still holding the punching bag.

"Because, I grew up getting beat up and I got a sick of it so I learned how to fight." I explained as I keep hitting the bag. Hard.

"You taught yourself?" he asked.

"No, people just picked fights with me and all of them were boys. So they were challenging." I explained. "and at the beginning I was a little weak and would get hurt but yet I wouldn't give up." we sat down. "to me I think when you give up, your weak and can't achieve what you really want to do. And I knew if I got punched and it bloody hurt I didn't show it, I fought the pain. That's why I don't like to cry in front of people. You and them four boys at the house are the first ones to see me cry." finally glad I can let out my feelings.

"If you can defend yourself and fight really good. Why did you let Jake touch your bum?" he asked looking confused and concerned.

"You saw that?" I asked and he nodded."Hazzy noticed to and he was mad. But, I was never scared of Jake, I couldn't fight back or he and his little goonies would hurt Nick. Nick is only dangerous when he gets really mad."

"Hey, it noon let's go back and eat." he said heading out to the car.

"Don't tell nobody please." I begged.

"I won't." he said smiling.

~10 minutes later~

"Honey, I'm home!" I yelled through the house.

"Hey!" the boys all yelled back. I ran into the kitchen and Niall had three sandwiches. I tapped his right and I was on his left. when he looked right I stole his sandwich.

"Hey!" he yelled. I headed towards my room to get changed. I ran and took a shower and put my hair into a messy bun. I got changed into gray skinny jeans, a blue tank top, a gray Hollister shirt, and my moms necklace.

"I think I'll look on twitter." I said to myself. I don't care if I get hate, it doesn't phase me. One thing caught my eye, a picture of me and Liam at the gym. He was standing behind the bag and I was about to hit it.

"Winnie Tomlinson and Liam Payne at the gym? Maybe Winnie's more violent than she seems." I just read it and chuckled, the things they come up with and stepped in front of the mirror.

My hair is a mess and I don't feel like brushing it. I thought to myself. I let it down and put it in a little better of a messy bun. And I walked downstairs. I only saw Harry watching tv.

"Where's everybody?" I asked sitting beside Harry.

"They went out." he said without looking at me.

"Will you brush my hair for me?" I asked and he nodded. I let my long hair down. "thanks." and he started brushing it.

"Are you still mad at me?" I mumbled but he still heard it.

"Why would I be mad at you angel?" He asked with concern in his voice.

"Because, out of all five, I'm closest to you." I replied. "And I didn't tell you when Ryan(the security guard) hurt me." I said twiddling my thumbs.

"I wasn't mad because you didn't tell me, I was mad because he done that to you." he explained and his voice was cracking.

"I just don't understand how to let my feelings out without hurting someone else feelings." I said sounding frustrated.

"Done." he said setting down the brush. I sat next to him and he put his arm around my waist.

"Thanks, your a great brother." I said hugging him, I felt safe in his arms.

"Well, we all have problems letting out our feelings." he said.

"Well, I like playing basketball to let out my feelings." I said smiling. "one on one?" I asked looking up. He smiled his goofy smile.

"Your on!" he said "let me go get changed and we'll go to the court." he said as we raced up the stairs. I got changed into red and white basketball shorts that I took from Zayn, a red tank top, and some supras. Harry came out with black basketball shorts, a white shirt, and black supras.

"Let's go." he said as he grabbed his keys and had a basketball in his hands. We got in the car and about five minutes later we were there.

"Oh shoot, what are we gonna tell the boys?" I asked Harry, he just shrugged. "I'll just call and leave a message. It rang and finally the house phone voicemail came on.

"Hey, don't worry about me and Hazzy were down at the basketball court so I can whoop his as-"

"Angel!"

"We'll be home later. Bye love you!"

"Let's go play ball."

"Crossover, BOOM!" I yelled.

"Layup!" Harry yelled. Harry was trying to get the ball and I tripped.

"Ow, my ankle." I groan.

"Are you ok-" I cut him off by grabbing the ball and shot a three pointer!

"Aw, no fair! You cheated." he pouted.

"All's fair in love and war!" I said smiling.

"Let's go before Daddy Direction gets on both of us." He said laughing. "I gotta go get something from locker room, I'll be back. Are you gonna be okay?" I nodded.

"Hey, look who it is! The little girl who finally got adopted." a voice that was to familiar and didn't want to hear. Jake.

"Jake, leave me alone." I said sounding irritated.

"Winnie the Pooh, are you mad?" he asked sticking out his lip.

"No, I'm just tired of seeing you." I said not backing down this time, I'm done of him pushing me around.

"Too bad." he said. "Well, you sti-" he started but stopped and looking at my arm with the bruise and looked like he was mad.

"What's that?" he asked sounding mad. I just covered it with my hand.

"It's nothing." I said looking down. "And why do you care?! You hurt me many times and never had any guilt!" I yelled getting in his face.

"I would back up if I was you." Jake said sternly.

"Well, to bad because I'm done taking your crap!" I yelled and pushed him.

"Your gonna be sorry." he said as he came and punched my jaw. And it bloody hurt but I wasn't gonna tell him that.

"You hit like a girl." I said and laughed as I punched his jaw. And he looked mad, he slammed me against the brick wall and it hurt too. He dropped me to the floor and straddled me. I heard the door open, oh shit. He slammed me against the wall again. And I saw standing there Liam, Harry, Zayn, Louis, Niall, Ethan, and Nick. All looking mad. I looked at Liam and mouthed 'no please' and he nodded. Ethan was about to but he held him back.

~Liam's Pov~

"What are doing?" Ethan asked confused and mad.

"Winnie doesn't want us to help, she wants to do it herself." I explain.

"I don't care!" Ethan whisper yelled.

"You don't think I'm mad, but I'm doing what Winnie wants." I said sternly and turned back at them.

~Winnie's Pov~

Liam held back Ethan, thank goodness. I want to handle him myself. I was so lost in thought I forgot what was happening.

"Get off me Jake!" I pushed and he fell and I walked off, I forgot never turn away from your opponent. Jake grabbed me and slam be on the ground and he punched me. I flipped him over and punched him. he pulled me even farther away from where my family was. Ethan looked mad.

"Look at me." Jake gritted through his teeth. Jake had gotten stronger and he slammed me against the wall and I looked at Niall and he was crying, I mouthed 'I'm sorry'. Jake looked where I was looking and saw them.

"Oh, your little family is here to save you." he said in a baby voice. He has my arms pinned tight.

"But, they haven't came to help you. You did this to yourself." he whispered in my ear. "but if they wanna watch and have a show we can give them one." He said smiling. My face just paled and he kissed my neck, I looked at Ethan and I saw hurt. I was holding back tears.

"Get off of me Jake." I pushed him and I slapped him. He looked mad. He slapped me and kicked me in my stomach.

"Jake, good kick." I heard a raspy voice that I never wanted to hear again in my life. Eric....
