That Evening

Niall’s POV
The door opens and I’m greeting by Alex. That fucking son of a bitch that I have no respect, concern, or anything, despite hatred, for.

‘’Jana.. You have a visitor.’’ He says over his shoulder.

I see Jana walking up behind him. He steps out of her way and she smiles gently as she sees me. Tori begged for me to come over, Jana agreed and said I could.

‘’Hey.’’ She mumbles.

‘’Hey.’’ I sigh lightly as she invites me in.

I walk to the stair case, I know my way around the place. I go up the stairs and go to Tori’s open bedroom door.

She’s sitting on the floor in a dress-up princess dress. A plastic tiara on her head. Some of Jana’s jewelry complete her adorable outfit.

‘’Mr. Tibbles, would you like s’more tea?’’ She asks the stuffed bear sitting across from her.

‘’Here you go,’’ She says as I guess the bear some how responded to her, I dunno.

The imagination of a little girl is beautiful. My Princess can be a princess in her own little world, or a fairy, or something in that matter. But she’ll always been my Princess, my angel.. my everything.

“Thank you, you look beautiful too!’’ She tells the bear, ‘’I thought I over done it.’’ She giggles.

I smile gently as I lean against the door frame, my presence unknown to her and the bear.

‘’Are you a prince, Mr. Tibbles?’’ Tori asks him.

‘’Oh, well. I’m a princess! If you don’t believe me, just ask my Daddy. I’m his Princess. And Taylor, My baby brother, is the prince. Mama’s the queen. And Daddy’s the king.’’ Tori informs the stuffed white teddy bear.

‘’Well, of course I live in a palace!’’ She laughs lightly to him, ‘’I have two.’’

She pauses, staring at the bear. I assume he’s talking back, in that pretty little mind of her’s.

‘’Yep, Two! My mama’s castle, and my Daddy’s castle. I wish I had one castle, so I could be with my Mama and Daddy, but I can’t.’’ She shrugs, sighing lightly to the bear.

‘’Well, you see. My Mama’s got a friend. I don’t like him. His name is Alex, and he gets on my nerves!’’ She huffs.

‘’Yes, all the time! Oh dear, Mr. Tibbles, you don’t even know! I can't ever do what I want. Cus he's mean.’’ She shakes her head lightly before putting her hands on her forehead.

‘’I know I’m a Princess, Princesses always love everyone and their lives, right?’’ She asks him.

I continue to listen carefully to my little angel speak to her teddy bear. Telling this bear more things that I thought she knew.

‘’But, Mr. Tibbles.. I can’t love every body! Not in my life.. I don’t love Alex.’’ She mumbles to him.

‘’No, why would I? He’s not my Daddy, or my Mama, or my other family. He’s nothing. I don’t love him. I love Daddy, and Mama, and Taylor. And I love Harry, Liam, Louis, Pezzie, Sophie and her little baby. I love Ellie, and Lou and Lux. And you of course, Mr. Tibbles. But never Alex. I don’t like mean people..’’ Tori spills out.

I feel my heart drop to the pit of my stomach. He must have done something to my little girl. She usually loves everyone, in a friendly way at least. Never have I heard her talk about these things.

Referring to him as nothing..

Something’s up. And damn it, I’m gonna go find out.

Right fucking now.
