"Niall kissed me"

As soon as the holiday ended, I called one person I knew who loved drama more than me. Louis Tomlinson.

"HE KISSED YOU!" He shouted back at me

I just nodded quickly

"HE KISSED YOU?! NOT YOU KISSING HIM?!"

"No, he kissed me," I said calmly trying not to freak out myself by reliving the moment in my head

"What did you do? Did you kiss him back?! Oh my god, YOU KISSED HIM BACK!" Louis once again shouted, I opened my mouth to speak but was immediately stopped by him "No actually tell me how it went down! TELL ME EVERYTHING!"

"You're more excited than me" I laugh "Well, James was at Niall's parents"

Louis nodded along excitedly

"So we had the day together, we both made the decision to go to the beach and chill like we were going to do the other day"

He nodded again with a smile this time

"We sat there, we talked, we laughed and in the middle of talking about something he stopped me and kissed me"

Louis squealed like a schoolgirl (or like me when I see roger taylor in a skirt...)

I had to tell him the other part though, the bad part that changed all of this

"But..." I start telling him the bad news

"Oh no, there's always a but!"

"But the other day Niall told me he's got a girlfriend and he's been with her for a couple of months"

Louis's mouth instantly dropped and an audible gasp left his mouth

"Seriously?! He kissed you while having a girlfriend? Does that mean he likes you then?"

"No Louis, that means he hates me with his guts," I said sarcastically "Of course it means he likes me. But that means he cheated on his girlfriend! He's still a cheater right?"

Louis had gone quiet and looked as if he was thinking of something

"Yes technically he's still a cheater for what he did to you"

Still hurts to talk about

"But what if this whole girlfriend thing was to see how you reacted?" Louis questioned

I mean it could be right, Niall had never mentioned her before and I had never seen her before. But maybe he kept it a secret as I did with Liam for a while, he has been a lot happy these past few months

"I don't think so he's been different, like happier, ever seen he's been dating her"

"Then why did he kiss you?"

There was now a silence none of us could fill, I wasn't sure what else to say but,

"I don't- I don't know," I told him

Damn it, Louis! Why do you have to confuse everything

"You should tell Niall you like him" Louis spoke up, soon his voice got sadder "If he likes you then he'll say yes but the longer you wait he's gonna lose those feelings, believe me, I know how it feels to be scared to tell someone and then it's too late"

He was right but I couldn't, I didn't know why

===============

ONE DAY LATER

I told him everything I said to Louis

"Tell him," Harry said

"Just tell him? Just straight up tell him?" I question

"Uh-huh, if it goes wrong then it's not meant to be, if it does then good for you. You have a boyfriend" He spoke quickly

Maybe he was right?

TWO DAYS LATER

Now over to Liam...was it a good idea to talk to him about this?

"Ooh, you're put in a bad situation..." Liam stated the obvious "He already has a girlfriend which means he might not have feelings for you but then again...he kissed you"

"Wow...I definitely haven't already gathered that information"

"I'm trying to help you here" Liam placed a hand on his hip

"I know, you're not doing a good job"

THREE DAYS LATER

"Okay, so you like Niall?" Zayn questioned with squinted eyes

I nodded

"And he kissed you? Meaning he likes you?"

I nodded once again,

"But you're too scared to tell him that you like him too?"

"Yup". He summed it up perfectly

Zayn took a deep breath and licked his lips before speaking

"I wouldn't tell him"

He was the first one to tell me the complete opposite

"What?" I was confused, I was almost certain he was going to be like the others

"Niall's a cheater"

I blinked swallowed down the tears that were threatening to come up

"He cheated on you, and now he's cheated on her. It may be just a kiss and if you want to see it like that but remember he kissed you while being in a relationship with somebody else. That's cheating"

Zayn was right. But I didn't want to believe him
