Chapter 38

February 24, 2019

Skylar's POV:

After we all woke up my mom thought we should go out for breakfast. We all agreed seeing she was so excited. I sit across from my mom and next to Niall. I'm wearing a white long sleeve top with my hair pulled up into a ponytail. No makeup sits on my face, I just didn't feel the need to put any on when I'd probably cry it off later.

Being out in public with Niall and Harry does make me kinda anxious. As people walk by they stare. Some smile and giggle, some send dirty looks. I got pretty good at blocking out unnecessary hate. It still gets to me sometimes but I try to ignore it. After all, they don't know me at all really. All they see is what's posted on the internet, there's so much more to me than that.

I hear the sound of photos being taken and push it to the back of my brain. I look at Niall who seems perfectly fine. He sends me a smile and places his hand on my thigh. We all continue eating and I try to distract myself from what I told myself I'd do today.

"Skylar honey are you okay?" My mom kindly asks in a quiet tone.

"Huh? Oh yeah, I'm okay momma," I reassure her even though I'm truly not but I don't want her worrying about me. She's got enough on her plate already.

"How's Kiara? I haven't seen the little devil in while," my mom chuckles at the nickname. She picks up her fork and begins eating again waiting for me to respond. Her blonde hair sits just below her shoulders. The wind blows and I catch her scent. Vanilla. I love vanilla. My mom used to spray her perfume on me all the time when I was a kid. I always wanted to smell like her.

"She's as evil as ever," I say with a smile. I pick at the food on my plate before I actually decide to take a bite. Niall's hand rubs my thigh as if he can sense how I feel. It's like he always knows. He takes a sip of his coffee and I can't help but stare. I take in his side profile imagining my fingers running along his jaw. I want to memorize the way his skin feels beneath my fingers. He's beautiful.

My mom's foot kicks my leg under the table and I jerk my head towards her. She smiles at me and I sink back into my seat forgetting him and I wasn't the only ones here.

"Have you seen her recently?" My mom asks to keep the conversation flowing.

"Yeah, we were together not that long ago. We met two girls their names are Brynlee and Rylan. Rylan has a little girl named Zaylee and Niall and I babysat for her," I say trying to fill my mom in on what's been going on.

"Aw that's so precious," my mom says with a sparkle in her eyes. She loves babies. I pull my phone out and show her the video of Niall and Zay arguing. She laughs and wears a big smile on her face.

"She's got some sass doesn't she?" My mom asks looking at Niall and he nods his head grinning at her.

"Lots of it that's for sure. She's adorable though," Niall responds as he runs his hand through his hair.

I show my mom the picture of Zay and Niall sleeping on the couch and Harry leans over to look. They both gush over the photo making me laugh.

"What a softie," Harry says looking up at Niall.

"It's cute," my mom says nudging Harry making him laugh.

We aren't going to be here much longer since my mom has work tomorrow. It was just a short little trip but I plan on coming back soon. I went too long without seeing my mom so spending this time with her has been nice.
