Chapter Twenty
-Niall-
I can’t believe this! One girl, that’s all I asked for. I only wanted her, Delilah. I wanted Delilah Styles. Out of all the girls he could’ve taken from me, he had to take her. I basically told him she was mine a month ago but did he care? Hell no! He had to take her from under my feet without even me trying to get her!
I had to leave. Being in that flat, surrounded by them was just intoxicating. It was suffocating. It was torture. It was down right hell, I couldn’t stand it. I had to leave.
I didn’t know where my next moved would be, but I can plan that out while I drive away. I knew one thing: I was pissed beyond belief.
“NIALL!” she shouted behind me. I heard her converse making their way towards me, but I kept walking angrily. Was I acting like a child who didn’t get his way? Yeah I was! Did I care? Hell no!
She grabbed my wrist and spun me around so I was facing her. She looked scared but I couldn’t help all of my emotions I was showing on my face. Anger, betrayal, loneliness, all of it just showed on my face.
“What’s your problem?!” she asked with anger.
“WHAT’S MY PROBLEM?!WHAT’S YOUR PROBLEM? I’M PERFECTLY FINE! JUST LEAVE NE ALONE!” I screamed back at her. I yanked my arm away from her but she grabbed my shoulder.
“YOU NEED TO CALM THE FUCK DOWN! WHAT ARE YOU SO ANGRY ABOUT?!” she yelled back at me. I flinched at the noise but the anger didn’t leave. Not just yet.
“You didn’t have to wave that around in my face ya know. Why do you think I started that fight, hmm?”
“WHAT DID I WAVE IN YOUR FACE?! THAT I WAS SCARED OF YOU?! NEVER THOUGHT OF THAT DID YOU? THAT YOU SCARED THE SHIT OUT OF ME! I THOUGHT YOU WERE GOING TO COME OVER AND DO SOMETHING TO ME,” she half whispered half yelled at me.
I eased my anger a little bit lower. I didn’t think of that. I was so caught up in the moment of being angry at Lou that I was scaring my best friend. “I'm sorry,” I whispered stroking her cheek. She flinched and backed away.
“Actually no I didn’t think of that, know why? Because I was too busy being pissed at Lou!”
“What did he ever do to you?! He was minding his own business until you had to start something like usual!” She retorted back at me.
“LIKE USUAL?! ARE YOU KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW?! I NEVER, EVER START ANYTHING WITH LOUIS. EVER! I DON’T CARE IF HES MY BEST FRIEND OR NOT, HE SHOULDN’T HAVE DONE THAT TO ME!” I screeched back.
“Done what?! What are you so mad at him about?!”
“HE TOOK YOU FROM ME, LILAH! HE STOLE YOU AWAY FROM ME BEFORE I EVEN HAD THE CHANCE TO TELL YOU-“ I cut myself off before finishing. I can’t tell her right now. That’d be even worse than yelling at her.
“Tell me what?” she asked, back at normal tone now. I shook my head and started walking back to my car. Yeah, I was being a coward but I didn’t care. I couldn’t tell her that I loved her while she’s happily taken.
“NIALL!” She screamed once again. I didn’t even bother to look back at her. I can’t do this now. He won. I surrender. I can’t win her now when he has her. I give up. He’s hers now, I have no chance.
I hopped in my car, closing the door behind me. I guess we just fought, for the first time ever. I just yelled at her, for the first time ever. She was mad at me, for the first time ever. I let her go, for the first time ever.
