All Your Little Things

Chapter 15

[Erynn]

There were a few minutes left till Niall was supposed to come over and my palms were sweating up a storm. What would he do when he found out that I knew his secret? Emma was scared to talk to him now so she was hiding in her room.

I looked over to where the magazine was laying on the table and my eyes watered. Why was I crying? I wiped the tears from my eyes just as a loud knock made me jump out of my chair.

I slowly walked towards the door and hesitantly opened it, revealing Niall who was smiling sheepishly, "hey."

"Hi," I opened the door wider and he walked in, leaning against the door frame.

"What did you want to talk about?" His accent was distracting me from my thought. Why did I have to be a sucker for accents?

"Niall, why didn't you tell me?" I asked him, my eyes meeting his blue ones.

He hesitated, "Tell you what?"

My eyes strayed to where the magazine was lying on the table and Niall followed my gaze and gasped. I looked back at him and his mouth was open, his face drained of blood.

"Erynn, I can honestly explain..."

"Niall, why didn't you just tell me? Emma is shaken up and intimidated. I don't think she wants to talk to you now!" My voice cracked and my vision became blurry, "You could've just told me."

Niall took a step towards me and I froze, "Erynn... I wanted to tell you but I honestly didn't know how to say it. I mean, who just blurts out that he is part of an international boy band in the middle of a conversation? Also, I was scared to tell you because I thought you would see me differently. I know what you're really like because you befriended me without knowing that I'm famous. I really miss that ya know? Not being judged the second you meet someone..." He trailed off and I immediately felt guilty. I should've thought in his perspective. If I were in his position I probably would've done the same thing.

"Can I talk to Emma, please? I really need to apologize."

"Niall..." I sighed, "I'm not sure if that's a good idea at the moment. She has some trust issues already with people. Maybe wait a few days so she can calm down," I bit my lip.

"No, it's fine," a timid voice said behind me and I turned. There was my little sister, peeking from the doorway. Her usually bright eyes were dull and rimmed with red.

"Oh Emma," I walked towards her and gave her a hug. She gave a small smile at me, "Let me talk to Niall. I promise I won't get upset."

I gave her an encouraging smile and Niall looked embarrassed at what Emma said but he came up to us and smiled at Emma before apologizing, "I'm really sorry Emma. Can you forgive me? Please?"

Emma stared up at him and slowly nodded her head, "I'll forgive you but you're going to have to prove to me that I can trust you again. I'm sorry Niall but it hurts knowing that you left out a huge piece of information about your life. I understand why you didn't tell us but you should've been able to trust us."

I gaped at Emma, this was literally the longest speech I have ever heard from her. She sounded...so mature.

"I promise you both that I won't ever lie to you about anything ever again, I swear," Niall said and I nodded along with Emma though she didn't look at him.

"Now, let's hear about that double life you've been living," I smirked at him collapsing onto the couch and patting the two seats beside me, waiting for them to join me.

[Kim]

I watched as Taylor pulled Harry along like her little puppet. At the last moment Harry twisted around to see me still standing there. I wanted to leave, hide in my room under my covers for the rest of my life but instead I just stood there and watched her take him from me.

I looked down as I felt his eyes on me and bit my lip, willing for the tears to stop.

"Harry, get back here right now!" I heard Taylor's voice but I didn't dare look up until I felt that familiar touch that made tingles run through me.

I stumbled as he grabbed me and tugged me into my room slamming the door behind us.

Immediately he pushed me up against the door and stared down into my eyes. I avoided his gaze knowing as soon as I saw those mesmerizing green orbs I would be done.

"Look at me," he begged desperately, his voice cracking. I couldn't bear to hear him sound like that so I complied with him. Green hypnotizing eyes is what I looked up into. For a moment we just held our breaths and stared at each other, distinctly hearing Taylor yell some very, very colorful words at me AND Harry while banging her fists against the door.

"Fuck Taylor, fuck everyone. I'm in love with you Kimberly and I don't give a damn what anyone else says," he said under his breath before connecting our lips roughly for a heated kiss. I melted into his touch and let him have his way. I always did, I thought as he finally rested his forehead against mine breathing heavily. I squeezed my eyes, before I could chicken out I shoved him away from me.

Tears blurred my vision once again, "it's not that easy Harry. You think you can just come waltzing back like that? Kiss me and everything will be fine? No, Harry, that's not how it works!" His face drastically fell and he winced at my words. He reached out to grab my hand but I pulled away, my heart breaking.

"Kim, please. Let me explain," he bit his lip and I was so tempted to just reach out and have my way with him but knowing that it wouldn't end well I stopped myself.

I shook my head to clear the lust filled thoughts and began to walk away. "Just give me some time and space." I say, leaving Harry at the door as I turned, slammed the door open shoving past an appalled Taylor and opening the door to my room and locking it. I crawled under the covers and cried until everything went black.
