Niall's P.O.V

A few hours earlier

As I walked out of the airport I was glad when there were no pap's, not that I usually mind, I just know I'm not looking my best at the moment. I pull my snapback further down so I don't get recognised on the way out. I had texted Liam to come and pick me up from the airport but I couldn't see him and it's not like him to be late.

That's until I saw Harry pull up next to me, I curse under my breath. But I get in the car because I need a ride. No one says anything in the car for at least 20 minutes which is half the journey already gone, you could cut the tension with the knife. I decided I'd be the bigger person and start a conversation,

"So, where's Liam?" I said hinting that I'm still annoyed him.

"With Sophia, obviously" Was that it? No apology or anything? Two can play at this game,

"Do anything interesting this weekend Haz, go to concert, see a film, and maybe even go on a date" I said sarcastically putting emphasis on the date. He looked at the ground; yeah that's what I thought.

"Look, it's stupid to let a girl come between us, it's never happened before so it shouldn't start now. Nothing happened between me and Tegan; she seemed a little distant anyway. I'm sorry for what I said but it was unnecessary for you to say what you did. So can we just make up for the sake of the band and more importantly I want my best friend back"

Harry lets out a long breath. I didn't realise that we had pulled up to the house. I looked at Harry and smiled,

"I'm really sorry too; can we just hug it out?" Before I know it I'm engulfed in a bear hug, it felt good to have my best friend back because we're the closest out of everyone recently. "Do you want to go get some Pizza?"

"Umm no thanks I've actually got a date. Don't worry though it's not Tegan because I kind of got the vibe she doesn't want to go on a second date as she ignored all my texts. So go win her back yeah?"

I walked up the driveway to our house and let myself in. As I put my coat away I glanced into the mirror and realised how shit I looked I better change before I see Tegan.

I stroll through the living room to get to the bathroom when I'm startled by two voices

"Niall?!" Zayn and Tegan both said. Wait Tegan? How does she know I live here? I had everything I wanted to say to Tegan in my head but nothing would come out. I run my hands through my unstyled hair. I know I flew back to sort things out with her but the whole situation is so draining so regretfully I say,

"What are you doing here? Please just get out."

I started walking to my bedroom to get some much needed rest and I'd have a clear mind to sort everything out tomorrow, she follows me.

"Please can we just talk I promise I'll explain everything" She begs. Honestly I want to listen but I know I'll just break down in tears, so I just shut the door in her face in face. Great move Niall, you can't take that one back.

As soon sit on my bed I find myself crying again I hope no one can hear me. I change into my pyjamas and decide to have nap to clear my head.

Tegan's P.O.V

I slowly walked to the sofa where Zayn was sitting, as I reached him he pulled me into a hug. He comfortingly whispered in my ear, "Don't worry he'll come around" I give him a hopefull smile. I stand up and gather my things,

"Where are you going?" Zayn asks "Just stay here it's late, you can take my room if you want."

"I shouldn't even be here; I've caused enough trouble already."

"Don't be silly, it's probably best you're not on your own anyway."

"Fine I'll stay but on the sofa"

He rolls his eyes me but comes over and gives me a kiss on the forehand and says goodnight before going to his room
I settle down on the sofa with blankets and close my eyes, even though I know I won't get any sleep tonight.

Niall's P.O.V-

I wake up for the hundredth time this evening; I grab my phone and see its 3:14 am. I decide to get up and grab a glass of water from the kitchen; I tiptoe around so I don't wake anyone. I heard a sniff come from the sofa and see it was Tegan. I walk back to the kitchen and get some food and sit opposite her and eat it. I sigh as I know I've blown my chances.

I need to get my feelings off my chest and it's easier knowing no one's around, I start to talk to myself,

"Why did you have to go on a date with Harry? Was I not good enough? I don't understand we got on so well on the flight and then you walked away. The thing is I find it hard to open up to girls because they usually want me for the fame or money. I even told my mum about you, she wants to meet you. But that won't happen now I fucked it up. When I saw you with Harry I must admit my heart kind of broke and then on the magazine your smile was so bright but I wasn't the reason behind the smile. It doesn't matter because I always ruin everything." I sigh and wipe away the few tears that were threatening to spill from my eyes. I make my way to my room when I hear a small voice,

"Please don't blame yourself, I fucked up more than you" I freeze as I realise she had heard everything I said.

"Did you-"


"Hear everything you just said yeah" She finished my sentence, fuck! I feel myself go bright red and I'm glad the room is dark. I walk over to her and sit down next to her. She leans her head on my shoulder and I pull her in closer.

"How about we both just forget everything and start it all over again?" She giggles,

"Excuse but you're in my seat" and in that moment I swear I've never smiled more in my entire life. I play along with the joke and reply,

"I am sorry miss but this seat is taken, you'll have to find another one or you could sit on my lap" Before she has time to move I pull her onto my lap, we both laugh quitely not to wake anyone. The smell of apples once again fills nostrils and now I know it's my favourite smell in the world. She looks at me and our eyes lock together, my eyes flicker between her eyes and her lips and slowly start to lean in. I've been waiting so long to feel her lips on mine and when they connected everything else just fades away, and I'm not going to let her get away this time.
