Just Your Average Girl

The next 5 days flew by faster than I thought was possible. Niall spend everyday with us and he got to know the girls a little better and I got to know the boys even more. Louis, Harry, and I got quite a bit closer. The three best friends are not… best friendlier. Before I knew it, I had a flight scheduled to leave in the next afternoon. Niall asked me to spend the day with him at his hotel just watching movies and not sharing it with the public. I got used to having people approach us asking for pictures, and having people constantly taking photos of us got a little more natural. I wished they didn't always have to be there, but I got used to the fact that they would be no matter what I thought. Twitter and other social media sights were easier to go on. The hate was still there, but I tried to let it blow over me. It seemed that more and more fans were supportive of us and liking me every day. They were really sweet.



"Hey, what's up?" Niall asked concerned looking at me. I didn't even notice I was spacing out.

"Just, thinking." I answered briefly.



"About….?" He asked wanting more details.



"Just about these past two weeks and everything that has happened. I never thought any of this would happen when I came here to celebrate being graduated. I thought I was just coming to Disneyland to have a magical time with my two best friends. I got so much more than that though, I got my first kiss, I met you, you're my boyfriend, I am best friends with Louis and Harry, I'm your girlfriend! It's just crazy! I wouldn't change anything about it though." I said telling him exactly what was on my mind.



"Well I'm glad. To be honest, I never thought I would get a girlfriend, especially someone as amazing as you, on my time off. I'm so glad I ran into you that day. If I hadn't, I don't know what my life would be like. I would still be single, how sad is that!? And I wouldn't have met the most amazing person I know." He said smiling down at me. He slowly leaned down and gave me a quick peck on the lips. We spend the rest of the day just cuddling and watching movies. We didn't want to talk about what happens tomorrow. We already decided that we would FaceTime every night before one of us went to bed, whoever that was first, call each other whenever we got the chance, and text as much as possible. We are determined to make this long distance relationship work.



*****



The next morning I awoke not very cheerfully.. I wasn't mad at anyone, I just wasn't happy that I had to be leaving so soon. Leaving the new friends I made and my boyfriend. I sluggishly got out of bed and took a shower and got ready to leave. I went to mu luggage and packed the last of my things.



"I wish it didn't have to end so soon.. These past 2 weeks have been absolutely amazing! I bet they have been even better for you since you got a freaking hot boyfriend!" Olivia said nudging me and making me smile a little.



"And now all we can do is go back home.." I said disappointed.



"Hey! Don't be sad!" Ann said smacking me



"Ow! That hurt!" I glared at her while rubbing my arm.



"Well you shouldn't be sad. Yes, you are leaving your boyfriend and your other "best friends", but we all had an amazing 2 weeks here! We should be happy we got to even come here and meet the people we meet! Let's dwell on the good that happened, not the bad."



"Wow Ann, going deep. You should like me looking on the bright side!" I said chuckling slightly. It's true, I usually try to look at the good side of things and be optimistic. We were all done packing by 10:30 and headed downstairs to the lobby to checkout. We headed outside and a smile made it's way on my face. In front of me, was Niall dressed in a suit with a chauffeurs hat holding a sign with my name on it.



"What is this?" I asked laughing walking up to him.



"I wanted to take you to the airport with style." I said smiling as I wrapped my arms around him and hugged him tightly.



"I still have no idea how I ever got lucky enough to have you." I said into his shirt.



"I already told you, I am the lucky one." He said in my hair. I just hugged him tighter and he squeezed me back. He then turned around and opened the door.



"For my lady." He said gesturing to the seat inside the car.



"Why thank you sir." I said smiling getting in the car. Ann and Olivia already were in the car, they didn't want to witness the lovey dovey moment we were having.. He then proceeded to run to his door and got in. The boys were in the back of the car waiting, they wanted to come and say goodbye to us as well.



"To the airport we go!" He said getting in on his side and sitting next to me. He quickly grabbed my hand and squeezed it smiling at me. Even though I am leaving in a few minutes and will be away from Niall for who knows how long, I am happy that he is with me right here right now. A short, quiet drive later, we arrived at the airport. No one wanted to talk the whole time there because we had no idea what to say. We were leaving and weren't going to see them for who knows how long. No one knew what to say, we just wanted to enjoy being together one last time. Of course we each promised to keep in touch. I obviously had Niall's numbers and the rest of theirs. Their management was very strict on who could have their numbers, and since I was Niall's girlfriend, I was able to have theirs, but Olivia and Ann were not. All the boys did follow them on twitter and promised to keep in touch that way. They also promised that if they were ever in the area that we would meet up and do something, same went with us. We just had no idea when that would be.



"We're here." The driver announced as we pulled up to the airport. I froze, I didn't want to leave. I just sat there staring at the building until Niall opened my door and snapped me out of it. He held out his hand to help me out of the car and I graciously took it. I stepped out and everyone followed. Once out of the car we all broke into hugs. I hugged each one of the boys. Louis and Harry told me that we needed to Skype a minimum of once a week and we were going to talk all the time, because that's what best friends do. By the time I got to Niall, I couldn't hold in my tears any longer, I noticed that he was starting to cry as well. I threw my arms around him and cried into his shirt.



"Hey love, don't cry. We will still talk every minute we have the chance. It's not like you are leaving forever either." He said trying to hide the fact that he had tears spilling out of his eyes just like I did.



"I know, it just won't be the same. It's not as good as having you right here next to me."



"I know, but it's going to be okay, I promise."



"We sat there for a few seconds more before we had to head to our gate. Niall just looked at me before he leaned down and kissed me for one last time until we see each other again.



"I will miss you, and I care so much about you, don't forget that."



"I never could. I don't think I care for anyone as much as I care about you." I said before I heard Ann announce that we had to leave now or we would be late.



"Goodbye" I said giving him one last hug and kiss before we walked to our gate. I turned around and waved to Niall one last time before heading into the crowd of people.



"It's going to be okay." Ann said giving me a hug. Each of us were reluctant to leave. We literally had the best time of our lives and now it was coming to an end. Don't get us wrong, we are excited to go home and see all our families again and some of our other friends, but it's not going to be as great as these past 2 weeks have been. We went through security and by the time we made it to our gate they were just beginning to board everyone. We quickly got on and took our seats. I sat by the window and open the shutter they had covering it. When the plane started to take off, I watched as everything passed by. Once we were given the okay to turn on all of our electronics, I put in my headphones and shut my eyes. Being left alone with my own thoughts for 2 hours.



A short plane ride later, we had finally landed in Utah. Home sweet home. We quickly gathered our luggage and headed out of the plane. As we were walking to baggage claim, I received a few started, few people whispered, and a few pointed. Everyone now knew who I was, even at home I am still going to get that little bit of publicity and people asking for pictures. I just am not in the mood to be doing any of those things today. We quickly grabbed our bags as they came by and exited the building avoiding as many people as we could. Once we reached the car we loaded our stuff and headed home. I was the first to be dropped off, I wanted to just go home and cry some more, as well as call Niall and told him I made it home safely like he wanted me to. 20 minutes later we arrived at my house, I told them I would see them probably tomorrow, got my bags, and walked inside.



"I'm home!" I announced as I stepped in my home.



"Come see me!" My mom called from her room. Right now, what I really need more than almost anything, is my mom. I quickly headed upstairs and into her room.



"Hey how was your vacation?" She asked and I could feel more tears fill my eyes. "Come here." She said walking towards me engulfing me in a hug. I just hugged her back and cried into her shoulder for a few minutes.



"It's all going to be okay. You are still going to talk to him all the time. I know it's not going to be easy, believe me. You know that I know, Matt lives in Vegas. My fiancé lives in Vegas and I live here in Utah. I understand how long distance relationships work. They aren't easy, goodbyes are never going to be easy, but you each care about each other and you are going to make this work." She said explaining to me.



"I know, it's just going to be really hard not having him here with me. He won't be able to come comfort me when I am having a bad day, he won't be here when I am alone and need someone with me. It's just not going to be the same."



"I know, but it will work out. You will see him again, and like I said, you guys can text, call each other, FaceTime, Skype, all those things. It will be alright, I promise." She said trying to sooth me.



"So how has the summer been so far for you guys?" I asked wiping away my tears and trying to distract me from the fact that Niall isn't here.



"It's been good. I think the kids are really enjoying not having school. We missed you though." She said while fixing my hair.



"It was weird not hearing the kids fight every 5 minutes." I said and we both slightly laughed.



"Well go get unpacked and then we will all go out for dinner and a movie, sound good?" My mom suggested.



"Sounds perfect." I got up and went downstairs to my room. I was going to unpack, but I had one thing I had to do first. I quickly dialed Niall's number. It rang 3 times before I heard his beautiful voice on the other side.



"Hey beautiful. Did you make it home alright?"



"Yes I did. I'm home safe." I said smiling at the sound of his voice.



"I miss you."



"I miss you, too, but please, don't make me cry again. I have done enough of that today." I said laughing lightly trying to hold back the sobs I could feel trying to make their way out.



"Okay, no more crying. Hey, I really want to talk to you until I have to sleep, but the boys want to go to dinner and try to cheer me up. I'm in no better condition than you are. They are being pretty persistent. Shockingly, I think they are more hungry than I am. I will call you once I get back."



"Okay, don't forget. I will talk to you later." We hung up the phone and I started to unpack. Things are going to be okay., not easy, but okay.
