The ride home was silent, but I was okay with that.
Adria was driving, eyes locked on the road, gripping the steering wheel so tightly her knuckles were white.
Harry sat next to her, doing something on his phone.
I really hoped he wouldn't tell anyone about what happened. I hadn't planned on telling anyone outside of the car right now. I had learned that I hated sympathy, and if the whole town knew, I was quite sure I would end up going mad.
Greg sat in the back next to me. His head was pressed against the window, and his hands were folded in his lap.
I continued looking out the window, thinking.
We finally made our way back into town.
Adria took Harry home first, and he pressed a kiss to her cheek before stepping out of the car.
I figured he felt bad for her, and didn't think much of it.
When we got to my house, Greg got out of the car, and went inside without saying a word.
Adria looked at me before getting out and walking me to the door.
"How are you?" She asked.
"Um.. Fine how are you?" I replied.
"Niall.. You know what I mean," she breathed.
No.. I really didn't.
"I'm fine. Tired I guess. I think I'm going to take a nap.." I told her.
She nodded, looking at the ground and then back at me.
"I love you, Nialler" she said, sincerely.
"I love you too, Adi" I said. She wrapped me in a hug, and walked to her car without another word.
•Adria's POV•
I left Niall's house, and made sure he couldn't see me before the waterworks began.
How could this happen? To him? Why? He's the last person who deserves this.
I flipped on the radio, wanting to get my mind off of Niall, which was impossible anyway. Break even by the script came on, and I listened carefully.
I'm still alive but I'm barely breathin.. Just praying to a god that I don't believe in. I cursed as I was cutoff, slamming harshly on the brakes.
Her best days were some of my worst, finally found a man who's gonna put her first.
Damn, traffic here really sucked.
But.. What am I supposed to do, when the best part of me was always you? And, what am I supposed to say, when I'm all choked up but you're okay? I'm falling to pieces.. Yeah, I'm falling to pieces.
I slammed the radio off. I could bear this anymore.
What if I lost Niall? We were a package deal, all or nothing. We've been best friends since we were four, and I can't imagine life without him. I don't want to imagine life without him...
When I got home I locked myself in my room and cried.
-Later That Night-
I was awoken by a loud thudding noise.
I groaned, flipping over and snuggling back into my bed.
And then I heard it again. Quieter this time. And then again. And again. And again...
It was coming from the window. I stood up, and opened the window slowly.
"Took you long enough. It's cold out here,"
Harry.
"The hell? I'm sleeping!" I shout-whispered.
Harry only laughed, climbing the same tree to my widow that he had climbed thousands of times before.
"Mind if I come in?" He raised an eyebrow.
"Be my guest," I sighed, opening the window wider. He wrapped his arms around me and kissed my neck.
"You okay?" He asked.
"Yeah.." I said. He sat on my bed, pulling me on his lap.
"It's going to be okay," he assured me.
"Whatever," i rolled my eyes.
"What's up with you?" He scoffed.
"What's wrong with me?" I asked, standing up.
"How about what ISN'T wrong with me, Harry? Huh?" I shouted.
"Shh!" He warned me.
He stood up next to me. "I could name a few things," he whispered, tucking a piece of hair behind my ear. Why did he always do this to me? I wondered. My knees felt weak at his close proximity.
"Kiss me, dammit" I ordered. He snaked his hands around my waist pulling me closer.
My hand instinctively went to his hair, running my hands through his curls.
"Jump," he whispered. I latched my legs around his waist, as he pressed me against the wall.
I needily grabbed his belt loops pulling us impossibly closer. I pulled away, panting as he smirked.
Harry and I had never exactly.. Made love.But It's come close before.
It was silent for a moment before he set me down on the bed, coming to lay next to me.
"Adria you know I like you." He stated.
"Uh yeah?" I said awkwardly.
"And I know you like me,"
I kept quiet this time.
He twirled a piece of my hair as he spoke.
"What If we went out?" He blurted.
I turned to look him in the eye. "Unless you don't feel that way anymore.. That was stupid to ask of course you don't I'm sorry-"
I cut him off my pressing my lips to his.
"I thought you'd never ask," He smiled at me. I smiled back, until Niall came back to mind.
"Harry can we just.. Not tell Niall?"
"Why?" He asked.
"It's just.. I don't think it's a good time to tell him." I said.
He nodded, "If you're sure,"
I smiled. "Can I go to bed now?"
He chuckled, "Sure babe,"
Babe... Babe.
He's called me that before, but it felt different this time. "Goodnight, Haz."
"Goodnight Adi," I fell asleep, still thinking of Niall.
