Chapter 2

Niall's POV:

"So, tell me something about yourself", I asked her as we drove back to the party.

"There's nothing to tell.", she said.

"Come on!", I said.

She sighs and starts speaking. "So you know my name, Isabella. I don't like being called by my first name for certain reasons. I don't like Bella either but I go with it. I love food, music and writing. I study at Wilfred's and I'm an English major. I'm awkward, weird and fat. Anything else?", she finishes.

"Why don't you like to be called by your first name?", I asked out of general curiosity.

"I don't like to talk about it. Anyways, tell me something about yourself?", she asked, changing the topic.

"My name is Niall, as you know it. I lov food, music and playing the guitar. I too study at Wilfred's and I'm a Physics major. I'm socially impaired.", I said.

"Why did you take Physics?", she asks.

"There's something about Physiscs that fascinates me a lot. Especially relativity. Space.", I replied. "Why did you take English?", I asked her back.

"I like English. I like literature. I find magic and beauty in the words and it has its own bliss. English is just so... English.", she said and I laughed.

"English is so English. Right.", I say between my laughs.

"Look at the road and drive, idiot.", she said giggling.

We came back to the party and looked for Liam, Louis and Lydia. LLL. Haha. Not so funny. Shut up Niall. We walked into the living room and found Liam and Lydia in an intense make out session and Louis grinding into a brunette.

"Guess I have to catch a taxi to get home today.", Bella said from beside me.

"I'll drop you off.", I said turning to her.

"No its fine. I can go home by a taxi.", she said.

"Its late at night. I don't think it will be safe for you. I can drop you off. Just give me the directions.", I said.

"Okay. Thanks Niall.", Bella said, smiling.

"Anytime, Bella.", I said. We got into my car as she gave me the directions to her home.

"Thanks Niall.", she said.

"You thanked me earlier. Its okay really. You don't need to thank me again and again.", I said.

"No, thank you for everything. I would be stuck in that shit party alone. You made it a fun experience. We should meet up sometime again, I guess.", she said. I didn't say anything but just smiled to her. She smiled back.

I pulled over to her house. She opened the door to get out, when I stopped her. I told her to give me her mobile. She handed it to me. I saved my number in her contacts as 'Niall :)'. I told her to text me. She giggled and said bye. I waved goodbye to her and started driving to my own flat. I am exhausted.

As I drove through the empty highway with the low hum of radio. The knowing sense of hollowness filled me again as it would do. I started feeling sad and depressed and thinking deep. This happens to me very often. Loneliness engulfed me and sucked me inside the ever growing hole. I don't know but I had an emotional breakdown then and there. It was like dementors attacking me invisibly. Nobody was there on my side. Everybody were just there temporarily. I felt as if I have never been happy before, all my energy drained. There was no light, no hope, nothing.

I remembered all the terrible moments of my life, how horrible I am. How my mom left my dad when I was 8, how my dad used to shout at me and remove all his agitation and remorse at me. How I was bullied during middle school, how people judged me, how no one ever accepted me. It just started becoming to much when I reached my apartment.

I pulled my self together as I opened the door and walked into my room. I remembered Harry was with Jane, so I became careful not to make any noise. I changed into my pajama pants. I decided to sleep without my shirt because I was just too lazy to find one and desperately needed to get to my laptop. I got into my bed, pulled on my blanket and switched on my internet. I logged onto tumblr and scrolled through my feed. Yes, I'm a fangirl. Don't judge me. My heart did many somersaults and got the major feel attack on a harry potter post.

I logged onto twitter to see if anybody was following me or anything. My phone vibrated suddenly and I jumped. I literally jumped. Thank god the laptop was safe or else I would have been dead. I checked my phone and saw that I had a message from a number. I opened the message and it read: 'Hey Niall. Its Bella here. Sorry for texting late.'

I saved her number to my contacts and replied to her.

To: Bella :)
No problem. So what are you up to?

From: Bella :)
Nothing. Hey, its Saturday tomorrow right?

To: Bella :)
Yeah why?

From: Bella :)
No Sherlock tomorrow :( anyways, Lydia texted me and told that you guys and us are going out for lunch tomorrow?

To: Bella :)
Hey even I watch Sherlock! Anyways, what do you mean by you guys and us and what lunch are you talking about??

From: Bella :)
You guys mean you, Liam, Louis and Zayn and us means me and Lydia. You didn't know?

Now I seriously need to talk to Liam. He's doing things behind my back . I don't like this.

To: Bella :)
No I didn't know about it and I don't think I would be able to come either. I have plans for tomorrow. Anyways, I have to go watch the Sherlock episode missed today. Bye love.

From: Bella :)
Okay fine. Bye :)

And with that I kept my phone aside and streamed the episode of Sherlock I missed today. It was nearly 3:30 am by the time I finished four episodes of Death Note season 2, so I decided to sleep.
