CHAPTER 3
"Niall, I can't believe it's you !" I said, still in shock.
"I can't believe it's you !" Niall replied.
We just stood staring in awe, we stayed like that for a while.
"Erm, Scott, can you cover for me...?"
"Yeah, sure" he was still cleaning the mess I made.
"Sorry about that"
"It's fine, I'll leave you two to catch up" and with that he walked round to the back room.
"What are you even doing here,Niall ?" I asked curious. What would he be doing here in America ?
"I'm here with the boys" he said innocently, as we sat down.
"Oh yeah, the boys..." My voice drifted off.
*Flashback*
It was a typical day, the weather was miserable. We spent it in Niall's house, like we usually did on days like this.
"Cassey, I need to tell you something..." He began.
"Okay" I said, quite worried actually as to what Niall was about to tell me.
"You might want to sit down for this"
"Niall can you just tell me please I'm getting really worried"
"Right, I'm going to try out for X factor" his gaze turned to the floor and he started fiddling with his hands (what he would do when he was nervous).
"What ?! Niall, that's great ! Oh my god, I can't believe you're actually getting the guts to finally do it ! I'm so happy for you, I bet it will all pay off"
"You really think that ?"
"Yes !" I lifted his face up to look him in the eyes, "Niall, I've heard you sing before and your voice is beautiful."
A small blush crept its way onto his cheeks.
"You really think that ?"
"I know that"
*months later*
I lay on my bed thinking about everything that's happened in the past couple months. I missed Niall. I wanted my best friend back. Since he's kinda become famous on the X factor we've slowly began to drift apart. We haven't spoken or seen each other as often.
I arranged to meet up with him. Once we were together, surprisingly there wasn't much conversation.
"Niall...?"
"Yeah, Cass ?"
"I miss you. I need more time with you.." The words just came out of my mouth.
"What do you mean ?"
"It's just ever since you started that band..." They words just kept coming.
"Go on.." He leaned in, wanting to know what I was getting at.
"Well since you've been in the band we haven really had much time together and we haven't been talking as much" I couldn't stop the words falling from my mouth.
"How ? I've tried, Cass"
"No you haven't Niall. You keep bailing me for them all the time. Whenever we have plans, you've always got a photo shoot or an interview or you're watching the game with the boys"
"But Cassey I can't help that kind of stuff"
"But it would be nice if you made a bit more of an effort. You're with them 24/7 and you always spend your free time with them."
"Well I can't exactly bail them for you..."
"WHAT ?!" I was shocked by his choice of words,"is that all our friendship is to you now ? Just another job on your list ?"
He was struggling to find the words to say.
"Well if that's how you feel then don't even bother talking to me again." As the
Words came out I couldn't stop them. I didn't mean what I said. I was hurt.
"Fine. Maybe I won't !" He managed to shout.
We both walked away from each other.
That was the day I lost my best friend.
*end of flashback*
"You okay,Cass ?"
"I just.. I didn't think you would even speak to me again" I was looking down, trying to avoid eye contact.
"I tried you know" my head snapped up.
"What ?"
"I know what you're thinking about. The argument. But I didn't mean what I said. I did try to get in contact with you but management gave me a new phone and I lost every trace of you. I had no idea how to find you."
"Oh." I suddenly felt guilty. "I thought you stopped caring..."
"Cass, look at me." My eyes met his. "I would never stop caring. We're friends for life, right ?"
"Yeah" I chuckled.
"Okay, well I've for to get going but give me your number and we'll catch up."
We exchanged numbers and he walked out the door.
I stood for a while thinking over what just happened. Could I have my best friend back ? Butterflies took over my body. He looked so different. In a good way. Management had done a good job. He looked extremely attractive (Not that he wasn't attractive before but puberty's obviously done him a favour) he looked hot.WOW WHAT. Okay I wasn't thinking that, he's my best friend and at this moment in time he's almost like a stranger to me. I wiped those thoughts from my mind and carried on the rest of the day. Repeating what happened in my head. Could this be fate ?
