Come And Go (Sequel to Unpredictable)

chapter 22

Niall's POV
It had been a week since the 'break in' at my house and I had been all over the place. I avoided staying home alone as much as possible, calling Liam to come and keep me company if I ever felt too scared. I couldn't thank him enough for constantly being there for me, I decided against getting the police involved because I didn't want them to be bothering me or my ma when we were at my house. Liam completely stood by my decision.

I was now in my room with a towel wrapped around my waist, freshly showered and feeling clean. I leant down and picked up my phone, sending a a quick text to Liam,
'hey you, are you busy today? the weather looks nice, I was thinking of going out? :) xxx'

After glancing out of the window at the beaming sun I decided on a tank top and a pair of shorts with my converse, as well as a snap back for my now very fluffy hair. My phone vibrated and I unlocked it to read Liam's text.

'Yeah I am, sorry boo. Maybe tomorrow?xxx'

I sighed and slumped down onto my bed, that was my plans with Liam gone.

'We'll see xxx'

I scrolled down my contacts before clicking on Harry's name and calling him,

"Hello?" He chirped.

"Alright mate. I was thinking we could go out today, you, me, Lou, maybe Zayn?"

"Sounds good bro, don't think Zayn's free today though. Me and Lou are definitely up for it though."

"Alright bud, we can go for a game of footy and then some food if you're up for it?"
I listened as he discussed the plans with Louis who was clearly not in the room, as he was repeating everything I said but shouting it.

"Right Lou's up for it. We'll meet you at the park in about ten minutes."

"So this guy just randomly appeared in your house right after he sent the text?" Harry questioned, kicking the ball to me.

"Yeah, I don't know what his problem is. I swear we sorted things out before he left but he just maintained this stupid grudge. I will admit though, I was scared to death. Thought the guy was going t' kill me." Harry laughed slightly as I took a shot at Louis who was in goal, I cheered slightly as the ball flew past him and into the bottom right hand corner.

"You should have called me Ni, I would have showed that little fu-"

"Louis!" Harry cut him off, we all started laughing a little.

"It was late and I know what you're like when you don't get your sleep."

"Tell me about it." Harry joked, causing Louis to shove him slightly as he tackled the ball off him.

"Has he bothered you since?" I shook my head.

"I genuinely think that's the last of him. I hope so anyway." Louis passed the ball to me and I set Harry up to take a shot.

"I hope so too. If you ever need us Ni just give us a call, but I'm glad Liam was there."

"Thank you. He was great, he helped me through my stupid panic attack and helped me decide whether or not I should go to the police. I just wish he-"

I was cut off by our names being called behind us, we all span round to see Liam and Zayn walking towards us. Louis shot a confused look in my direction and I just shrugged.

"Alright lads, what ya doin?" Zayn called out, grabbing each of our hands and pulling us in to a hug.

"Just playing some footy. Where are you two going?" Harry asked, resting his arm on Louis' shoulder.

"Gonna go swimming and then for some food, right Li?" I turned to Liam who nodded and avoided eye contact with me. I walked over to him and pulled him aside, leaning in and kissing him softly.

"I didn't know you had plans with Zayn?" He nodded slightly,

"Yeah he asked me the other day." I nodded back and we stood in silence.

"Can't you join us?" I asked, beckoning to Harry and Louis who were now fighting over who should be in goals for the next round. He shook his head.

"We already have plans, I can't just make him change them." I frowned at him.

"Not even to spend time with your own boyfriend?" He rolled his eyes and walked off back to Zayn, I followed and returned back to Lou and Harry.

"We'll see you soon yeah." Zayn smiled, swinging an arm around Liam's shoulder as they walked away. I turned back to Harry and Louis who were looking at me sadly.

"Did he tell you they had plans?" I shook my head and took a seat on the floor, rolling the ball back and forth.

"He just said he was busy. I've hated the thought of them hanging out together since I found out about the kiss." Louis sighed and took a seat next to me, squeezing my knee.

"You're not going to lose him to Zayn bud. He loves you and you know that. Do you really think he'd pick Zayn over you after everything you've done for him?"

"You flew to Australia for him." Harry added, joining us on the floor.

"Honestly, I don't know. I hope not but the unexpected always seems to be around the corner at the minute."
