Nerd With Blonde Hair (Boyxboy)

Chapter 19

*Niall*

"So my birthday party is tomorrow, at 8:00. It's going to go on for however long, will you come?" Ryder said, looking at me as I ate my lunch.

"I already told you I would, Ry." I smiled and looked at him. He smiled wide and took a bite of his cheeseburger.

"Lou, no!!" Liam said, squealing softly as Louis tried to put yogurt on his face. Which he succeeded, I laughed loudly along with Ryder and Louis, as Liam wiped the yogurt off angrily.

*Harry*

Look at them. Laughing and having fun together. That's suppose to be me. But you didn't want to ruin your reputation. Yeah well you're right, I don't like Niall. Who am I kidding? I'm not gay.

After lunch I followed Niall into the bathroom, making sure no one was in here.

"Well, well, well. Look who we have here." I said, crossing my arm. He jumped and turned around.

"Harry." He said softly.

"You and Johnson, huh? I always knew you were gay, it's disgusting." I said, ignoring the little voice inside of me, telling me to stop.

"What?" He said, shocked, tears threatening to fall.

"Listen Niall, I don't like you, I never have. I like Nicole, and always will." I said, stepping closer with each word. He coward back into the wall. I slapped him across the face hard, gripping his shirt. My hand stung from the in pact against his soft, pale skin.

"You're just a gullible nerd with blonde hair, that will never have someone like me." I punched him one good time in the stomach, dropping him to the floor. Watching him curl up into a ball, sobbing, I felt the bile rise up in my throat, so I grabbed my bag and ran. Ran all the way to my car and drove home. Without looking back. I could still hear his sobs.

*Niall*

I sat up against the wall, wiping my tears. I heard someone come into the bathroom so I quickly got up, pretending I was washing my hands.

"Ni.." Louis said softly, looking at my red, swollen cheek.

"H-he.." Was all I could get out before I collapsed into Louis arms in a sobbing mess.

"I know I heard him. I'm going to beat the shit out of him." He picked me up and took me out of the bathroom. Ignoring all the looks I looked up at Louis through my tears.

"It doesn't matter." I said, wiping my tears as he put me in the car. Soon after he got in, buckling.

"I'll text Liam and tell him what's going on." He said, starting the car.

I nodded and curled into a ball, crying softly.

The car ride was short, considering I went to sleep from my exhaustion. I was just really tired and wanted to get home and curl into my covers. Hoping to never wake up again.

I unlocked my front door, Louis falling closely behind.

"I'm just going to nap, you can sit down here and wait for Liam." I said softly, going up the stairs. I went into my room and slammed the door, kicking my shoes off and dropping my bag. I put on some sweats and a hoodie, getting into the bed. I sobbed into my pillow until sleep engulfed me again.

*Louis*

"Why can't I see him??" Ryder said softly, sitting on the couch.

"He's asleep, Ryder." I said for what seemed like the thousandth time since the last hour.

Liam and him arrived just a hour ago and Ryder was about to loose it. It was cute but annoying.

"Then tell me what's going on." He said, looking at me, then my boyfriend who was sitting beside me.

I sighed and nodded. Going into the whole story since Niall was a freshman, up to a senior. How he's liked Harry and how he's gotten beat up, mostly the main points.

"Does he still like Harry?" Ryder said.

"After today? Probably not. I see the way he looks at you Ryder. You just need to be careful, don't move too fast." I said, gripping Liam's hand.

"L-Lou?" Niall said softly from the top of the stairs.

"Yeah, bud?" I said, getting up and looking at him.

"Send Ryder up please." He said, going back into his room.
