(3 days later.....)

(Lou's P.O.V)

It's been 3 days since went into hospital. She got out the next day and just rested. They stayed with Maura and that but I was so scared about something happening that me and El stayed too. They were nice about it and have been fine. Tonight though we're going back to our room at the hotel. It's been so stressful and every time Chloe gets overwhelmed I don't let anyone near her and break her away from the group.

She isn't the only one getting upset with me, the group is too. I can't help it though. I mean like fuck! Come on? You nearly lose a sister and when she starts to panick you're supposed to just sit there and let her have another attack. Turns out it was a panick attack that she hasn't and since after she cut. That brings back terrible memories but its gotta be said.

Today though Chloe and I have agreed to tell everyone what happened, why it did and about her childhood. She is leaving out some bits as she doesn't want them to know and I'm fine with that. She might tell Niall but if she does, he better keep his fucking mouth shut! I will seriously fuck him up if he tells the others. Even though he isn't like that I just am so protective over her I just... Arghhhhhh it's frustrating me.

Chloe is dressed when I knock on her door. I open it and slip inside. Niall is playing with her hair and she looks to me with worry and like she is scared. I rush to her and bring her in for a hug. "Hey Chloe it's ok! If you're bit ready that's fine but if you are then gayest ok too. You don't have to tell them everything. They'll understand and if they don't well fuck them. You can tell Niall more if you want I don't care. As long as you're safe, healthy and happy. I swear though if Niall fucking tells anyone I'll beat the living shit out of the leprechaun." She giggles and Niall's slaps the back of my head.

"Dude I'm right here. Don't fucking call me that and I would never do that to her or yourself." He says and I nod happy with his answer. "All good bro. Was just razzing you up." He chuckles and gives me the bird. I laugh and give it back. Chloe laughs and gets off the bed. She grabs my hand and holds onto me with both arms. This is the first time she's gotten out of bed since she got home. Other than too pee but like the girls helped her with that and showering. El helped out a lot and Chloe is finally getting her energy back.

She grips onto me and I help her walk down the stairs, instead of picking her up, she need to get used to it again. She smiles and let's go of me trying to walk to the couch. When she gets there I pull her onto my lap. She nestles in and everyone sits around. Including the Horan's. That kinda pisses me off but I can't be angry as they let us stay. It's also putting Denise it a bad spot since she is pregnant and shouldn't be stressing for Chloe.

"Ok so before Chloe or I start I just want to ask you all to do us a couple favours as this is a touchy spot and very emotional thing for Chloe." They nod. "Ok first please don't repeat to ANYONE what she or I tell you. Two DONT interrupt Chloe or ask anything till the end. Three if she is emotional and wants a minute please respect that and give it to her. Four sorry I've been such a dick I'm just protective of her." They all laugh at the last one and it's gets Chloe giggling too. I smile and kiss her cheek.

She exhales before grabbing my hands and squeezing tight. I squeeze back letting her know I'm here. "Ok well umm where do I start?" Her voice is quiet and shaky. "Wherever you want to love." Harry smiles and Taylah looks to Chloe sad. I can't believe Chloe never told Taylah or Amy or anyone. Only me, her FAKE family, her REAL family and the boys I asked to watch her know. So my mates or my mates, brothers and cousins.

"Well um it's started when my parents gave me away. I grew up in a foster home for a bit before a family took me in and took care of me. They helped me all the time and were kind. When I got older and I was about 11 or 12 they hated me said I was the worst child to ever have. I was useless, ugly, fat and a loner. That day I cut myself. I locked myself in the bathroom and cut. The cuts were so deep that there was blood spatter everywhere.
