the stage was calling me

Chapter 41

March 8, 2019

Skylar's POV:

It's been a week since Harry's last run. He's left the house but not for that reason. I'm not going to lie, I got annoyed hearing him and some girl in his room every night. They don't even try to be quiet. Happy for him though, do you H.

He hasn't been acting like himself and the smell of alcohol that trails behind him is strong. I've been staying at Niall's since whoever that girl is has been there all week. He's not alone and he hasn't asked for anything help wise so I let him be. I can only do so much.

"Hey Ni, will you hand me my makeup bag?" I ask peeking my head out of his bathroom to see him laying in bed with his arms behind his head. God he's so damn hot.

"Yeah love. Is it in your bag?" He asks getting up and walking towards the bag I stuffed a bunch of my shit into before he picked me up.

"Yeah and it's honestly probably at the bottom," I say and hear a chuckle escape him before I go back to doing my hair.

Kiara thought going to a strip club tonight would be fun. I've never been but I'm excited. I'm not sure what Niall plans on doing while I'm gone but I hope he enjoys himself because he truly deserves it. He's been dealing with my emotional ass all week. He's a trooper.

"Here you go petal," Niall says walking into the bathroom with a smirk on his face. I roll my eyes and look back into the mirror.

"Why are you looking at me like that," I shake my head feeling the butterflies in my stomach. His smirk kills me. Sweet baby Jesus help a girl out.

He walks up behind me and places his head on my shoulder and just watches what I'm doing. It's comforting honestly and I love his company.

His hands run up and down my sides and goosebumps rise on my skin. I try to shake it off as I try to do my makeup and his breath fans on my neck. My mouth gets dry and I try to think of anything else.

"If you keep distracting me, I won't be leaving here any time soon," I say letting out a deep breath.

His smirk grows and butterflies swarm in my stomach. I can feel my body temperature rise. I watch myself in the mirror as my shoulders rise and fall.

His fingers slip under my shirt touching my bare skin.

"Ni," I place my hand onto his wrist knowing I have fifteen minutes to finish getting ready before Kiara gets here.

His lips press against my bare shoulder and a moan nearly escapes my mouth. He doesn't have to do much for my head to go into a spin.

"Okay, okay I won't tease," he says grabbing my face and bringing his lips to mine. I smile into the kiss then lightly push him back.

"Okay I have to finish getting ready."

He lets out a groan and I chuckle. He steals another kiss making me laugh before he exits the bathroom.

I quickly finish getting ready and receive a text from Ki.

From Ki: I'm here hoe lets spend all of our money.

I throw my phone into my bag and turn all of the lights off in Niall's bathroom. I quickly put shoes on and make my way downstairs.

I catch Niall in the kitchen and he throws a water bottle at me. I catch the bottle and give him a questioning look.

"It's vodka."

"Oh shit," I say looking at the bottle letting out a chuckle.

"Make smart choices," he says as I exit the house.
