The Pretty One (A One Direction Fanfic)

Chapter 16

(A really important thing to know in this chapter is that all of this is happening while Olivia and Louis' date is happening)

(And make sure you remember these two things from previous chapters.)

Previously..

Olivia's POV (Chapter 14)

I clicked on his name and held the phone up to my ear, shaking the entire time. I took a few deep breaths to try and calm myself down and it worked. But as the phone rang, the doubt in my mind grew. What was I doing calling my ex-boyfriend at midnight.

Niall's POV (Chapter 11)

"I knew it would hurt her." I began. "I knew the damage I was going to make when I released that statement and I knew it could have potentially  ruined that tiny bit of a relationship that we had left." I paused. "But at that point it was what I wanted. I was just angry at her and at the world. After I broke up with her, I got kicked out of the band and that hurt me a lot. It felt as though 5 years of my life was gone, wasted. I needed somthing to blame. Someone. And the only person that was to blame, for me, was Olivia. I knew it was my fault. Of course I was the one to blame, I cheated on the love of my life. The worst part was that it wasn't even my idea, it was Ally's. But because my judgement was so clouded, I dove straight into it."

Now onto the actual story..

Niall's POV

*Sigh* "Yes. Yes I understand." ... "No, that won't happen. I'll make sure of it." ... "Alright! I get it. Goodnight!"

I sighed again, breathing out deeply. It's been almost a week since my 'statement' on social media. And my manager was going absolutley sick at me just like he had been for the past four days. Apparently because I lied, I had ruined the best chance I had of making it as a solo artist.

But I didn't care what those words did to my image. They were the truth and just so happened to be the first step to forgiveness. It was the least I could do to make myself stop feeling like this. I can't live with the guilt anymore.

It eats away at me most nights and the weirdest thing happened yesterday night. I think it was around 1 A.M and I got the most unexpected call from Olivia. I was about to pick up but I'm guessing she ended the call because before I could hit answer the call went away.

At first I thought I was just having a really vivid dream but when I want onto my call history this morning, it showed that I had a missed call from her.

Honestly, I was just really confused. Was she ready to be on good terms with me because of what I said? Did she get hurt? Did she have another nightmare? I don't know, but I wanted to find out. I wanted to ring her back but..well..

I have an over-possessive girlfriend, don't I?

Let's talk about that for a minute.

So last time I said that I think leaving Olivia was one of the worst desicions I've ever made. Well, I think it's safe to say that it's finally time to admit that it definitely was the worst desicion I have ever made.

Before we were together officially, Ally was the sweetest person ever. So sweet that she blinded me enough to tear me away from the person I should be with right now. I love Olivia, I had done for the four years I was with her, and all the years that I had known her. I just don't understand why I did something like this to such a pure soul. I wish I had the ability to say that I loved Olivia again. I wish I had the ability to tell her that I still do.

And I know this is a foolish desicion but I have to break up with Ally, because I don't think I can live like this anymore. Everyday I wake up wishing someone else was beside me in bed and not Ally. I hurts my heart to think how quickly my mind can change all because another person had changed.
