My alarm clock went off and I groaned, spinning around to snooze it. Today I started my swimming classes and I had set off an alarm at 6:30 to be there at 7:00.

I sighed, waking up and grabbing my phone to see what had happened when I was asleep. I turned on my phone and frowned when I saw the lock screen picture. It was a picture of Niall and I underwater. I was making a funny face while Niall was closing his eyes, trying to open them underwater.

A tear slipped out of my eye, but I wiped it, walking to my closet to change for my class.

After changing into my swimsuit and comfortable clothes I left my house.

"Hey Camila!" I greeted my friend as I walked into the swimming pool.

"Aye what's up?"

"Nothing much, it feels good to be here back on track."

"Yeah, how has the beginning of your summer been?"

"Okay, I guess. And yours?"

"Same." I gave her a faint smile and walked into the changing room to leave all my stuff in there.

"Okay guys everyone here!" The coach called us over. He gave us a routine we had to follow before going into the water and swimming.

The class normally lasted about an hour. Today they had given us the last 15 minutes of class to chill around or play.

"So how's Simon?" Camila swam to me.

"He's doing alright."

"And how's Paolo?"

"He's ok. He graduated this year." I nodded and we decided to go out. It was getting cold in here.

"Do you want to go to Starbucks after this to have breakfast?" Camila suggested.

"Yeah sure."

We walked out of the place and crossed the street, entering Starbucks.

"Hi, can you give me a Dark Cherry Mocha Frappuccino?" I told my order to the lady.

"And for me a Pumpkin Spice Latte."

After we got our drinks we walked to a table and conversed for a while about life.

Then we decided to order actual food. I got a Ham and Swiss panini, and Cami got a Turkey Sandwich.

After going to Starbucks we said our goodbyes and went our separate ways to our houses. When I reached my house the first thing I did was go to the laundry room and leave my swim suit and towel to dry. Then I went to my room and laid down on my bed, checking twitter.

What the hell. Justin Bieber died his hair platinum. I retweeted the picture and continued reading what I missed when I was gone.

Then I decided to watch some Pretty Little Liars. This TV show reminded me of Niall.

"Hey Savannah." I had just called her to talk.

"Rafa! What's up?"

"I wanted your advice.."

"What happened?"

"I don't know if you knew Niall and I were dating.."

"Yes! I knew, and for the record, your brother is the one who told me! What a good friend you are.." she sighed through the phone, "but did you say dating? As in the past?"

"Yeah... that's where you come in and give me advice."

"What happened?"

"Well, it's a very long story, but basically it seemed right at the time. I think I miss him, though." Savannah stayed quiet for some time.

"Listen to your heart." She said softly.

"Listen to my heart? That's literally the most cliché thing you've ever told me." I let out an uncomfortable laugh.

"I mean it though, think with your heart, not with your mind." I took her words in and nodded in understanding.

"Ok.... well thank you, you're a great friend." Savs laughed.

"Well Rafa, I gotta go but call me if you need anything."

"Kay, bye!"

I hang up and threw my phone to my bed. I think I needed time to think.

I spent the rest of the day eating ice cream and watching Pretty Little Liars. I was addicted to that series.

For the night my parents ordered pizza, but I wasn't in the mood to eat with them and participate in a conversation so I just ate in my room while watching more Pretty Little Liars.

<*_*> ...the next day...

I woke up and repeated my same morning routine. When I reached my house my grandmother and mom where talking in the living room.

"Hi grandma," I said in my cute voice, walking into the room. I hugged her and sat down, listening to their conversation.

They were speaking about a new movie when my brother walked in with Franco, Ben and.... you guessed it, Niall.

I excused myself and ran to my room before he could see me. I don't think he saw me, but then again I had to go up the stairs to get to my room, so I wasn't sure.

I closed my door and laid down on my bed turning my laptop on to watch Pretty Little Liars. My room was a mess. All of my clothes were on the floor and I had pillows, tissue papers and candy wrappers all around my bed.

It's called PND:

Post Niall Depression.
