[Cherry Bomb’s POV]

It’s been a few days and none of the girls or I have gotten a call from the boys. I was expecting Niall to call me, since Liam told me he liked me but I guess I was wrong. It’s my night to dance at the club. I’m not excited. It’s not like I’m always happy to go into work but for some reason being there bothers me. I walk in and see Maz counting money like always.

“Hey CB!”

“Hi Maz.” I say duly.

“Aw what’s wrong baby girl?” I hate when he calls me that.

“Nothing. Just a little tired that’s all. But I will be fine by the time I go on stage.” I give him a fake smile and walk to my dressing room.

The night passes and I finally do my show. The crowd cheers. I get my money. And go to the back to put my robe on. I count my tips and see I didn’t collect like I usually do. I only made five hundred pounds. Damn. I sigh and run my fingers through my hair.

“What the hell was that?” Maz yells and I look up at him with confusion.

“What are you talking about?”

“You. Up there. You were not on like you usually are.”

“I’m sorry. My head was somewhere else.” My head was focused on what those blue eyes could be doing and why I haven’t heard from him.

“How about I help you get your mind back into place?” Maz winks before walking over to me and running his finger along my cheek.

“No thank you.” I push his hand away but he moves it back.

“Aw c’mon CB. I know how you feel about me.”

“If you mean disgusted. Than yeah I’m glad we’re on the same page. Now get away from me.”

“That’s not how you should talk to your boss.” His face turns into a scowl.

“Let’s be honest with ourselves Maz. If it wasn’t for me this club wouldn’t even be here. It would have shut down a while ago. I’m more of your boss then you are mine.” He goes to say something but walks away instead. Right when he is at the door he turns and faces me.

“I’ll let it slide this time. But the next time you talk to me like that. You’re out of here.” He slams the door and I jump a little.

The night drags on and I didn’t have many private shows tonight. I really was off tonight. I get a taxi and head back to my flat. Scarlett and Saige are asleep I guess and I see there’s a sticky note on my door.

Niall called. He wants to see you tomorrow night. He said around eight. Don’t blow it!

XO,

Scar

I smile at the sticky note and go in my room. Maybe tomorrow night will go better than tonight.

~Next Night~

I get to the boys flat and knock a few times. The door swings open and I see Niall. His blue eyes look like they’ve gained more blue, if that makes any sense. He smiles at me and I do the same.

“Hey.” I speak and he opens the door more and let’s me inside.

“Hey Jaz.” He looks like he was going to say something else but stops himself.

“So...?” I ask trying to fill the awkward tension.

“Liam told me about your conversation with him.” I walk to the couch and sit and Niall does the same.

“He did?”

“Yeah. He said that you two talked for a little while and you said some things to him.”

“I did.”

“Are you only going to give me two word answers?” He asks me getting flustered.

“What do you want me to say?”

“How you feel!” I go to talk but he cuts me off. “And don’t try to give me that big ‘Why do you want to know?’ speech because I don’t want to hear it. I don’t like arguing with you.” He sighs and I lean back into the arm of the couch and study his face.

When he’s frustrated his cheeks get red and his lips turn into a line. He clenches and unclenches  his fist a few times. He avoids eye contact or takes quick glances at me from time to time. I hadn’t realized I didn’t give him an answer until he turns to face me.

“So... how do you feel?”

“Like crap.”

“There you go again with your two word answers.” He sighs again while throwing his hands up in the air and I hold back a laugh.

“You’re cute when you get frustrated.” I smile and his cheeks turn a bright pink.

“Thanks, I guess. Now are you going to tell me why you feel like crap?”

“Because of you.” He looks down and I see the hurt in his eyes. “Not because of you like that. Because I hurt you. I’m sorry.” His head snaps back up and his blue eyes meet my brown ones. It’s like he’s trying to find the hesitation in them.

“You really mean it?” He almost whispers.

“Yeah. I didn’t mean for you to get hurt Ni. I just...”

“Ni? You do realize you just gave me a nickname?” Another smile creeps onto his face and I roll my eyes.

“Yes I do. So much for impersonal right?”

“Why did you come up with that rule?” I break my gaze from his and look down.

I know that if I didn’t I would spill everything and I’m not ready for that yet. I feel the tears sting my eyes at the memories and quickly push them back. There’s no way I could tell him why. It’s just too much. I guess Niall saw my reaction and pulled me onto his lap as I bury my face into his chest.

“I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to upset you.” He whispers in my ear while rubbing circles on my back.

“It’s just... I’m not ready to tell you.” I whisper into his shirt and I feel him nod.

“Ok. We don’t have to talk about it.” I nod this time and pull away. He wipes the few tears that left my eyes and smiles at me. I lean my forehead against his and look into those blue orbs that get me everytime.

“Why do you care so much about me?” I ask this time not out of anger but true curiosity.

“I don’t know. I’ve been asking myself that question since the day I met you and every time I do I get the same answer. Because you’re you. I know it makes no sense but I like you. Yeah you’re stubborn as hell and you know how to push my buttons, but you make me smile and laugh even when you don’t mean to. And I can see you’re hiding something and I’m guessing you have been for awhile and that’s why you broke down a few minutes ago. And I want to help you and I will help you even if you don’t want me to.” He smiles at me and I feel a few tears run down my cheek.

I wasn’t thinking when I did it but I did. I pressed my lips against his and pulled his face closer to mine. He didn’t respond at first but it didn’t take him long to. Our lips moved together and I didn’t want it to end. You know those fireworks people always talk about seeing in movies? Well I felt and saw them while kissing Niall. He pulled away first to catch his breath and I did the same.

“I like you too. I like you a lot actually.” I smile and he does the same before pulling me back into another kiss. We spent the rest of the night talking about nothing really but all those nothings meant something to me and it feels good knowing someone truly cares for me again.
