The Exchange.

After I got my tattoo yesterday things went by smoothly. The others ignored my woredrobe change and we had normal conversations. It was awkward for a while until el suggested baking cookies leading into a full blown doe war. So we had fun. Harry came over around midnight and I could tell he'd been knocked up. His lips were red an plump, his hair was messy and his clothes were tattered.

Everyone had practically scowled at him all day and made sure I was ok. I kept a smile.

I woke to the bright sun shining through my window. I mentally praised myself for not having a hangover. Honestly that was worse then death. I slowly sat up stretching letting out a small yawn in the process. Today was a lazy day for all of us. We agreed to just watch movies today, which was fine with me.

I slowly dragged myself out of bed stripping from my pajamas and jumping in the warm shower.i winced a bit as it hit the sensitive skin were my tattoo was but relaxed after a minute. I was quick with my shower and hopped out wrapping the towl tightly around me before stepping out into my room. I looked around ensuring no one was in here before darting to my closet.

Since it was a lazy day I stuck with this. Some batman sweats and a black tang top.



I let my hair hang dry and kept it covering my tattoo, I wasn't quite ready to show the others.
When I was done getting ready I walked out of the loft to find el making some pancakes on the stove.

"Hey el" she turned giving me a smile before returning to her cooking.

"Morning Hayden! Ready for a lazy day!?" She cheered. I smiled and laughed.

"Of course! When the lads Comming?" I watched her slow down as she thougt.

"Ummmm I think in about two hours...the girls are on there way" I nodded and walked in a little further.
"Didn't no you could cook!" I heard her giggle.

"Louis tought me pancakes...your more perky than usual! Spill!" She said turning and dumping the pancake on a stack I had yet to notice.

"Nothing...I guess you could say after the club I'm a new person!" I said while sitting at a bars tool.

"I new you'd have fun! But harry had to ruin it...I'm sorry bout him Hayden...he can be a totel ass one minute then the sweetest...." El said with a sigh.

"It's fine....now that it's over I'm moving on..." I couldn't help but let out a sigh as the hurt became evident. I quickly dabbed my eyes and took a deep breath composing myself.

"You ok?" El was grabbing two plates and placed two pancakes on each.

"Ummm yeah. Thanks" I said with a smile taking the food. She gave me a small grin and poured some sirup on my food before poring it on hers. I took a bight instantly melting at the deliciousness of the food...it was so good. Which meens it'll make me fat...huh...shut up brain! I scolded myself mentally.

"So you no Liam is going to be all excited there's another batman fan in the house right". I scrunched my eyes looking at my pants.

"Oh! Well these are mine..." I said with a playful grin. She just laughed.
After about an hour of talking and messing around the girls had arrived. We were all talking when the door bell rang. I quickly stood and rushed to the door.

"Hello!....." I soon trailed off as the green eyed monster stood in the front. He had a shamed look on his face as our eyes locked. I quickly looked away letting them in.

"HAYDEN!!" Louis chimed hugging me. I giggled as he let go.

"OMG!!! BATMAN BUDDY!!!" Liam yelled as he saw my pants.

"YOU WANNA BE BATMAN BUDDIES!" I chimed trying to match his tone. Everyone laughed and Liam pulled me in a hug ruffling my hair.

When we'd all situate on the couch I ended up between niall and harry...great.. Niall gave me a smile witch I returned. I kept my back to harry while I was talking to niall. Because I new I'd brake if I looked at harry...he was my weakness..I had to be strong.

~~~Harry's POV~~~

I sat in the corner of the couch watching Hayden talk to niall. I could tell somthing was different because she wasn't shying away like she used to. I couldn't put my finger on it but it was almost like she could careless about how people were..

She kept her back to me the whole time while the others argued over what to watch. I really feal like a dick..I want to tell her but I need the right time when we are alone..the lads won't even talk to me...

I noticed a black lining on Hayden's back as she moved around. Eventually her hair had moved enough I could see a very large and evident tattoo on her back....woah..when did she get that. I couldn't help myself.

"When did you get a tattoo!" Everyone's eyes were on me then to Hayden who suddenly tensed at the question.

"Ummm..."she tried pushing her hair back and resting on the couch with her back coverd. Niall was quick to catch on and stopped her.

"I got it...yesterday" she said finally giving in.

"I WANNA SEE!" Zayn and perrie both cheered. They both were the ones to like tattoos most. Everyone else liked them but not as much as zayn. Hayden stood quickly lifting her hair into a bun so we could see the full art on her back. It looked really good on her honestly. When I read what it said thoug I had a feeling those words weren't just there because of fancy ness...I felt they had a deeper meaning..somthing close to Hayden.

Everyone oood and awed at the art. Hayden's cheeks flushed...god I love that.. As she sat back down.

"What made you want a tattoo?" I questioned quickly. She gave me a glare and answerd

"I drew it a while back...I just...felt like it I guess." She said shrugging her shoulders. I could tell she had more to say. I plan on fixing this yet another mess I've made. And I plan on finding out what the hell is up with Hayden.

~~~Hayden's POV~~~~

The night carried on peacfully with the occasional conversation and jokes. Harry didn't say anything and kept to himself jumping in every now and then to the conversations. As much as I have come to like harry I feal that he doesn't feal the same. I no if I talk to him or even look into those beautiful green eyes I'll break.

I glanced around the room to see the others had dozed off, leaving me and harry in the silent room.

"Hey." His words were quite with anger behind them.

"Hey.." I stood up going to leave when his hand gripped my wrist.

"Hayden.." I didn't let him finish.

"No harry. You made it pretty clear at the bar the other day. Alcohol brings the truth from people...urs just happend to be the opposit of what I'd hoped" my head hung low as I fought the tears burn.

"Please.." I squeezed my eyes shut pulling away with not another word to say. I heard him sniffle. Is he crying...no..he's not.. I walked away swiftly shutting the door to my room.

--the next day--

I woke up sun beaming through my room. I felt a chill as I pulled the duvet off of my small frame. Quickly moving to my closet I grabbed this for the day.



After approving my outfit I stepped out of the room into the cool apartment to find everyone had left. I walked to the kitchen pulling out a bagel for breakfast. I smeared a bit of vegi mite on the bagel before taking a bite. I let out a sigh leaning against the counter as my mind wondered.

A light nock at the door brought me back. I set my bagel on the table wiping my mouth a bit.

Walking to the door I opend it quickly expecting my friends to be at the door. But when the person was in clear view a smirk was evident on his face. Mine on the other hand was pure astonishment. I should change my name from Hayden smith to Hayden trouble..

My lips were parted in a o as the towering male figure shadowed over me. My once fealing I could be strong was gone. Fear flooded through me as the piercing brown eyes peared into me.

"Hello sweaty." His cold raspy voice spoke. My heart picked up a million times while I silently prayed for me to be having a nasty dream.

He slowly stepped into the house not once removing his eyes from mine.

"Y-you can't b-be here...." He cocked his head with an amusing smirk.

"Is that so? Shouldn't a dad be allowed to see his daughter?" His words dripped venom as he kept a low tone. His eyes if it was possible would be red.

" t-there's p-people here....I-I'm not alone" I creeked. He popped his bottome lip out and nodded. His eyes darted around the large flat.

"Nice place you got for yourself....makes me wonder.."his eyes reconnected with mine smirking "how many men have you slept with to get this?" I bit back tears trying not to break. I new he'd drag me home if I gave him the chance.

"None! Now..would you please leave!" I tried to hold a strong tone like him but failed as my small voice squeaked the words. His eyes never left mine. Slowly he stepped forward tracing my jaw with his fingers. I yanked my face away shutting my eyes and stepping back.

"I'm not leaving without you."

I saw a change in his features his face went from emotionless to angerd. His arms flexed as his breathing grew heavier. I slowly backed away in fear of his next act. My eyes darted to els room which was before mine on the top of the steps. I glanced back at him as a smirk grew.

"Try it babe. I dare you." His tone full of sarcasm I used all my might and slapped him. Taking him by surprise he stumbled back. I darted up the stairs slipping midway as his larg form appeared at the bottom.
I threw myself up and darted up the rest of the way, I ran into els room slamming the door and locking it. I turned to see a made bed and empty room. Mentally cursing I pulled my phone out as my dad's hands pounded the wooden door.

I shakily looked through my phone to see el texted me. It said

From el-

Went out for breakfast with louis, be back in two hours luv ya!:)

I cursed under my breath the message was sent at nine. It was ten so I had another hour. My hands scanned my phone calling the first person I found. As the phone rang suddenly the banging stopped and it went silent. It was like one of those moments in a Horner movie were everything stands still and the only thing you hear is you racing heart and quickend breath. And right before you think it's ok, your dead.
The phone continued ringing as I wiped the sweat from my forehead peering out from under els bed I had shoved myself under. Nothing. The door stood still and it was silent.

"Hello?" Harry's raspy voice spoke. As mutch as I didn't want to talk to him I had no time to call someone else.

"H-harry." My voice croaked through the line. As soon as he heard me he new somthing was wrong.

"Hayden? What's wrong?" I took in a shaky breath letting out a sob.

"H-help me..."

"What's going on? Hayden baby stay on the phone I'm on my way." I squeezed my eyes shut heaving in a breath letting out another sob.

"Talk to me." His voice softly cooed in the phone. There was anger and fear in his tone but he tried to hide it for my sake.

"M-my dad...Im under the bed..I-it's quiet...i-I'm going to see if he left.." I said as I slowly dragged myself.

"No! Hayden stay were you are and don't come out till I get there." I decided to listen and pushed myself further back.

"Hayden..." I interupted him as the locks on the door began to jingle.

"Shhh. He's picking the lock" I whisper cried. I turned the phone down as harry let out a sigh.

"Baby stay quiet I on...." He was unAble to finish when my voice filled the room. I screamed bloody murder digging my nails into the cold marble floor as my dad dragged me out ruthlessly.
"PLEASE HARRY HELP!" I screamed as my dad twisted me so I was on my back. I kicked and screamed clawing at anything trying to get away.

"Calm down bitch!" He spat slapping me. I took a moment to recover befor kicking him in the balls sending him to the ground. I shakily drug myself to the other side of els bed grabbing my phone. I turned jumping over my father as he heaved himself up.

Running into my room I slammed the door locking it once more. This Time going in my closet.

"H-harry...I-I'm in my closet." I sobbed.

"Ok..turn around and feal for a handle. There's not time to explain. Just do it!" He said softly. I slid my hand on the white wood feeling a dip in the wall. I slowly curled my fingers hearing a click, I pulled the small door back revealing a large game room. My eyes widend in amazement.

Suddenly my bedroom door smashed open startling me. I quickly stepped Into the room quietly shutting the door and backing Into a corner.

"Are you ther?" Harry's voice spoke. I took yet another shaky breath.

"Mhm....p-please hurry."

"I'm Comming baby..hang on." Suddenly my phone clicked Off. Looking at the now black screen I realized I hadn't charged it...no...

I sat silently sobbing as I listened to my dad stomp through my room yelling my name and rummaging through my stuff. There was crashing and yelling until it grew silent.

"HAYDEN! WERE ARE YOU!" Harry's voice boomed through the flat. I felt a bit better but then realized he'd just alerted my father he was there. I swallowed a lump in my throat crawling to the closet door when I heard a loud BANG.
