Chapter Fifteen

Niall's POV

Louis had left and I wasn't sure what else to do. I was again alone in my flat with the absence of Skylar viable everywhere. She spends so much time at my flat that everywhere I looked was a reminder of her. There were pictures of us hanging on the walls, her favourite movies on the shelf, and even her clothes in my bedroom. She was everywhere!!! Not knowing what else to do, I went into my bedroom and stripped the of the bed sheets. They were still covered in makeup from where Tiffany had slept and I couldn’t stand the memory of her any longer. I through the bedding in the laundry and came back with a new duvet.

Out of habit, whenever I felt lonely I always went through Skylar's song book. She gave it to me a few months ago because she wanted me to get to know her better. The only rule she gave me was that I could only listen to one each month, or else I'd run out before she wrote more. I always thought that her little 'rule' didn't make much sense, but I obeyed her wishes anyway. I smiled as I went to her side of the bed and pulled it out from between the mattresses.

I opened up the small cracked booklet to the next unread page and immediately noticed how long the writing was. It was really different compared to the rest of the pages. This one almost seemed like a diary entry rather than just a song. My curiosity got the best of me and I began reading.

*Flashback – Skylar's Diary*

Niall has gone to London to try out for the xFactor. I know that he's wanted to try out for ages but he's never had the courage. When he was younger and still in secondary school he talked about it constantly. All he wanted to do in life was sing and play his guitar. Back then he'd only been waiting to grow old enough to cut the age limit. I'm glad he's finally living his longtime dream, but also, it makes me mad. He didn't even tell me until yesterday that he was leaving. He said he'd make it up to me when he got back. But he left this morning...on my birthday. I know he didn't forget because he took me out to a lovely dinner last night. He said he wanted to celebrate early and I didn't understand why until he told me he'd be leaving. In all honesty, I'm pissed at him. I didn't even talk to him all morning. I ignored all his calls and texts. He kept leaving voice mails on my phone trying to explain things but I refused to listen to anything he had to say. He left on my birthday and I just didn't see why that it had to be NOW he finally decided to go. Just before he left, he came to my flat and said goodbye but I just shrugged his words off and he left without me saying anything to him.

Tonight's birthday party was complete shit. Mum decided to invite everyone in my music classes at school and they all showed up at my house. It was horrible. I didn't like the people at my school because I preferred to keep to myself. Many of the people at the party didn't even come for me, they just came because someone was throwing a party and they wanted a drink. All I wanted was for you to be here with me, standing at my side and holding my hand...The only thing I could do was put my feelings into a song..this is what I've come up with... I think I'm going to call it 'The Moment I Knew' Niall, if you ever read this, I'm sorry. I still love you, Nialler.

(Again, for the sake of the story line, we're pretending that Skylar wrote this back at a birthday party when Niall went to try out for xFactor.)

You should've been there,

Should've burst through the door,

With that 'baby I'm right here' smile,
