NICE TO MEET YA

Without You [Niall]

All day in school the next day Y/n keeps ignoring me and even switches places with Saoirse, so that she's sitting as far away from me as possible. I couldn't stop thinking about her and Saoirse and Roisin wouldn't talk to me either, except for once, when Saoirse says "You know she still loves you and misses you, right? She even slept with your hoodie!". Everybody else comes to me and asks what's wrong which anoyes me alot. "Why isn't Y/n sitting next to you anymore?" "Did you break up with Y/n?" "Finally, you broke up with Y/n, now you can finally be my boyfriend!" "Why are you so sad?" "What happened?" "Doesn't look like you slept alot!" "Stop!", I shout a little too loud. Everybody steps back a little. "Just leave me alone! And Lisa, no, I won't be your boyfriend! Ever! Stop asking that! I've rejected you often already and will keep rejecting you, no matter what you do or say, I won't change my mind!" I'm so pissed at all of them, cause they won't leave me alone, everybody but Y/n of course, I'd like her to be by my side 24/7. I'm especially pissed at Lisa! Why won't she understand, that I don't like her and never will! The entire day I try to keep my distance to everybody, except for Jason, Paul and Michael, as they really are friends and don't just pretend like literally everybody else. In the break the four of us sit together and I try to explain what's going on, which is hard, because I don't really know myself. "Y/n broke up with me, I think!" "You think?" "Yeah, I'm not really sure! she said something like 'You're popular and I keep getting pushed away!' or so and then left!" "I don't understand, you're perfect for eachother!" "I thought so, too, but I guess that was wrong!" "What are you gonna do now?" "I don't know!"

At home I continue to ask myself why she would break up with me? I love her! I thought she loved me, too. Guess that was a lie! I just can't believe she broke up with me because I'm popular! I have to win her back! I have to show her, I only want her! I grab my guitar and start playing some random tunes until I heard that it actually sounded good and took out a notebook to write it down. It's about three in the morning and I am still trying to write this song. The song is for Y/n, but I don't know how I can show it to her, if she will always ignore me. 

The melody is finally finished and it's five o'clock in the morning, so I decide to get some sleep. Only like two hours but that's better than nothing. The next day is the same as the day before. Everybody keeps anoying me, Y/n ignores me and I can't stop thinking about Y/n. At home I play the melody hundreds of times and try to write a song. It takes me a long time but I finally have some parts.

So your friends been telling me
You've been sleeping with my sweater

I'm half a heart without you

I'm half a man at best
With half an arrow in my chest

Forget all we said that night
No it doesn't even matter
'Cause we both got split in two

I'm half a heart without you

I'm half a man at best
With half an arrow in my chest

Half a heart without you
I'm half a heart without you

Though I try to get you out of my head

I'm half a man at best

That's all I have till now, but I still need alot. The next few days I continue writing the song and on Monday I bring my guitar to school. Today is special, that's why I decide to do it today.  The whole day ther's an event and I ask the teacher, who's in charge of the event, if I could play a song, and fortunatly for me he said yes. I'm very nervous. The teacher gives his speech. "Thanks for coming, everyone. First I'd like to tell you, why we're having an event here today and then there's a surprise. Ok, so, as you know, we we're collecting some money for charity over the last month, and yesterday, we reached 100.000€! That's more than any school has ever reached in a month! So thank you to everybody who gave some money for charity!" Everybody screams and claps. "Now for the surprise, I don't exactly know what it is but Niall wants to show you something!" Everybody claps and Y/n looks at Saoirse and Roisin in confusion. I go to the fronth and pull out my guitar. "Hello, I'm happy to be showing you this song, it means very much to me and I wrote it for someone, who means the world to me!" I start playing and everybody listens carefully.

So your friends been telling me
You've been sleeping with my sweater
And that you can't stop missing me
Bet my friends been telling you
I'm not doing much better
'Cause I'm missing half of me

And being here without you
Is like I'm waking up to

Only half a blue sky
Kind of there but not quite
I'm walking 'round with just one shoe
I'm half a heart without you

I'm half a man at best
With half an arrow in my chest
I miss everything we do
I'm half a heart without you

Forget all we said that night
No it doesn't even matter
'Cause we both got split in two
If you could spare an hour or so
We'll go for lunch down by the river
We can really talk it through

And being here without you
Is like I'm waking up to

Only half a blue sky
Kind of there but not quite
I'm walking 'round with just one shoe
I'm half a heart without you

I'm half a man at best
With half an arrow in my chest
'Cause I miss everything we do
I'm half a heart without you

Half a heart without you
I'm half a heart without you

Though I try to get you out of my head
The truth is I got lost without you
And since then I've been waking up to

Only half a blue sky
(Only half a blue sky)
Kind of there but not quite
I'm walking 'round with just one shoe
I'm half a heart without you

I'm half a man at best
(Half a man at best)
With half an arrow in my chest
I miss everything we do
I'm half a heart without you

Without you, without you
Half a heart without you
Without you, without you
I'm half a heart without you

(Half A Heart - One Direction)

What do you think, does Y/n know the song is for or about her? Does she like the song? How will she react?
