Make You Believe (Niall Horan Punk)

Chapter 20 - The Mighty Fall

*Skye's P.O.V.*

I woke up with a throbbing headache. I groaned, sitting up and going to get some aspirin.

When I stood up and started to walk, tripping over something and falling over. I groaned, looking over to see what I tripped over. I saw Niall laying in a nest of blankets that we made for him to sleep on last night.

"You okay?" He asked, his voice raspy from sleep. His voice is so sexy like that.

"Yeah, I forgot you were here" I confessed, starting to get up.

Niall sat up, hair messy and his eyelids were heavy from just waking up. He's adorable when he's sleepy.

"Where are you going?" He asked.

"Getting us some aspirin" I told him before leaving my room.

I went to the bathroom and grabbed the bottle of aspirin and put it in the pockets of my pajama pants. I don't remember changing. I looked up at the mirror and saw that I also had taken my makeup off. Guess I stay on routine, drunk or not.

I went to the kitchen to get some waters. I reached into the refrigerator when I heard a noise. I hope Niall stayed in my room.

I looked up to see my mom grabbing her purse.

"Hey mom" I greeted.

"Hey Skye. I have to get going, I have to work for a few hours today" she told me.

"Okay, is it alright if Niall hangs out here today?" I asked, leaving out the fact that he slept on the floor in my room last night.

"Will you be okay alone here with him?" She asked, concerned. Like me, she didn't want a repeat of this summer.

"Yeah, I'll be fine"

"Okay, but if he tries anything call. Alright?"

"Okay mom. I'll see you later"

"See you later Skye" she said before she left. I grabbed two water bottles and returned to my room.

I sat down on my bed, taking some aspirin before handing Niall the bottle along with a water.

"Thanks" he said, still sleepy.

I took a sip of my water while he took his aspirin, before he also took a sip of water.

"You're adorable when you're sleepy" I told him.

"Thanks" he chuckled. "What took you so long?"

"I was talking to my mom" I told him.

He got up and grabbed his jeans and t-shirt, which were about a foot or two from the bed of blankets he slept on.

I didn't realize that he slept in just his boxers, but I took advantage of the opportunity to check him out.

I knew he had a lot of tattoos, I see his sleeves almost every day, but I didn't know that they literally covered his torso.

"You have a lot of tattoos" I commented.

"Yeah" he replied.

"Did you get them all over the summer?"

"Yeah, I've gotten a few recently, but the rest were over the summer"

"Wow, you must've been in the tattoo parlor everyday" I said.

"Yeah, I practically lived there" he said, sitting beside me when he finished getting dressed. "Be honest, do you think I'm still in love with Alicia?" He asked, changing the subject.

"What? Where did that come from?" I asked.

"Earlier this week, Monique asked you and you didn't answer"

"That's because I didn't want to get in the middle of your argument"

"Well Monique's not here and there's no argument" he said, trying to get me to answer the question.

"I don't want to talk about this"

"Just answer the damn question" he said sternly.

"Yes"

"Yes what?"

"Yes, I think you still love Alicia"

"What makes you think that?"

"The way you look at her"

"I don't love Alicia anymore" he told me. I bit my lip, not knowing what to say, leaving us in an awkward silence. "You don't believe me" he said. I just sat there silently.

He sighed angrily, getting up and grabbing his things.

"Where are you going?"

"I'm leaving"

"Why?"

"Because I don't want to be here right now"

"Why not?" I asked. He ignored me, making his way out of my room. "Are you seriously mad at me? You told me to be honest! It's not my fault if you can't handle the truth!" I said. He turned around and glared at me. His glare was as cold as ice.

"Is that what you think? That I can't handle the truth?" He said coldly.

"Yes"

"Well, you're wrong" he replied, turning around to leave.

"Why are you overreacting then?" I asked him. He scoffed before responding.

"I'm not overreacting"

"Yeah, you kind of are"

"Whatever" he said, slamming the door as he left.

I went back to my room, cleaning up the blankets off of the floor.

I went to the laundry room to clean them so my mom doesn't know they were used.

After putting them in the washer, I sat on the couch and decided to text Monique.

S: Hey

M: Hey

S: Are you feeling better?

M: Yeah, a little bit.

S: I'm sorry I didn't back you up the other day.

M: No, I'm sorry. I shouldn't have dragged you into it. So how was the party last night?

S: Percy didn't go, but I ran into Niall and we got drunk and danced a little. We hung out in the kitchen most of the night and at one point we made out and Alicia and Nathan interrupted us, Niall told them (probs meant towards Nathan) to fuck off and we came back to my place (no sex) and he slept on a bunch of blankets on the floor.

M: YOU TWO MADE OUT!!!!

S: We were drunk!

M: So? You still liked it!😉

S: Guilty!!!!😏😍

M: Why did he stay over at yours if you two didn't have sex?

S: 'Cause he was gonna hang out here today.

M: Where is he?

S: He asked me if I thought he was in love with Alicia and I said yes and he got pissed off and left.

M: Oh, I'm sorry.

S: It's okay.

M: Do you want me to come over? We can talk about it.

S: Yeah.

M: Okay, I'll be over in five.
