Will you Stay?

Chapter 26

//Niall’s Pov \\

I walked around the party trying to even see a glimpse of her dark brown hair, only to run into Matt. “Hey man, looking for someone?” he asked, obviously knowing what I was doing.  “Get lost man” I pleaded, still looking over the crowed.

I had to find her before other guys do. “So I heard that she turned down the offer of being yours and you are only ‘just friends’ ” he blurted out, smirking.

I have to admit it hurt to be turned down, but at least she didn’t completely shut me out, she still wanted a chance and I wanted the chance with her. I started to regret this agreement I made with Matt, it literally haunted me at night.

But when did she say we were just friends? Did she say that to someone? Was that all I was.

Maybe it was because i told her not to tell anyone? But I didn’t want her reputation to get ruined, she was innocent and everyone loved her, what would they say if they found out she was dating me? I’m no good for her.

 A shadow of disappointment ran through me, but it only wanted me to prove her wrong about the friend part, I needed to make her love me.

But the problem was, I was falling for her when it should be the other way around, as cliché as it sounds. You can’t control who you fall for.

I turned to Matt, wanting to take back the bet when a thought accrued “How did you know about that?” I asked.

He smirked “A little birdy told me” he stated, before taking a step away “Oh and before I leave. Kitchen” he ended finally walking away.

I bolted to the direction of the kitchen to see her. A beautiful girl covered head to toe and she still looked stunning, I took a moment to take in her surroundings when I saw who she was talking to.

Luke.

As I was laughing with Luke I felt a familiar hand wrap around my waist. I looked back to see Niall giving Luke a glare of death “Hey mate, why don’t you go to the basement and get more beer” he said more of a demand then a question.

Luke glared back, before giving me a quick wink and walking away. I turned to Niall, only to see anger and jealously fill his eyes. Usually the thought of someone being jealous because of me fluttered my heart but now I was just frightened.

“Come with me” he demanded pulling on my arm through the crowed. He guided me to the elevator and pushed me in, pressing the button to his floor.

We rode the elevator in silence, with the only noise coming from Niall’s angry heavy breathing.

Once we made it to his room, he shut his door and rested his back on it, while I stood in the centre; between him and the bed “What were you doing with him?!” he asked, trying to remain calm.

“Talking” I said as if it wasn’t a big deal. “About what?” he dug in, trying to get answers. “About random stuff” I said completely truthful.

Niall nodded walking closer to me “So tell me why you are talking to him when you are supposed to be with me tonight!” he finally yelled letting out his anger. I decided to be the calm one, he was obviously jealous.

“Because I couldn’t find you” I say, keeping my voice to a minim. “Well you should have asked him where I was instead of having your own little conversation. I asked you to this party! ME! Not him! So you’re meant to be with me and… No other guy…” he stated the last words lowly.

He’s been doing that a lot when he lets out his feelings, which makes me wonder if he had really ever spoken his feelings out loud.

I realise how deeply I’ve offended him, it probably looks like I just ditched him for Luke, but I can talk to whoever I want whenever I want.
