Chapter 45
LILY'SV POV
"Mrs. Robinson, May said your husband agreed to something stupid and harmful. What did he do?" I asked.
"Got me!" She shouted over the heavy metal music blasting from the radio.
I looked over at Zayn, "Niall probably got him to buy us beer or something. You have nothing to worry about. Relax. We'll be home soon."
There was no way that's what May was talking about. I texted her and Niall. One of them was going to tell me. Neither of them can keep a secret from me.
I sent a text to May first. "What did your dad agree to?"
She read the message, but didn't reply. I texted Niall next.
"What did May's dad agree to? And why won't he tell me?"
Niall: "I can't tell you. I swore to Harry I wouldn't."
It has to be bad if Niall won't tell me. I bet you it's got something to do with my family. I knew we shouldn't have come here. I felt a wet droplet land on my thumb. I was crying. Quickly, I wiped away my tears before anyone could notice.
I laid my head against Zayn's shoulder and closed my eyes. Hopefully when I wake up, my nightmare will not be coming true.
NIALL'S POV
"I can't tell you. I swore to Harry I wouldn't."
"Who are you texting Niall?" Harry asked, trying to see my screen.
I shoved it in his face. "Lily. She want to know what's going on, but I'm not going to be the one to tell her." I stuck my tongue out at him.
"That's mature." He rolled his eyes.
"I'm trying Haz. I feel like I'm betraying her. We've become really good friends and keeping something like this from her... It hurts."
The smile on Harry's face faded. "I know. But we can't tell her."
"Okay." I slid my phone into my pocket. Hopefully Lily won't text me again.
The car ride home wasn't that bad. A few arguments between May and her dad, a few make out sessions that I had to cover my eyes for, and about 500 complaints about how May wanted her kids out of her stomach. When we finally pulled into the drive way I ran into the house and put my stuff in the basement.
"I CALL THIS SECTION OF THE COUCH!" I yelled as Zayn and Lily walked down the tiny flight of stairs.
"Actually Niall, you're sleeping in my room." Stephan exclaimed.
"Where are you gonna sleep?"
"Tonight I'm sleeping on the air mattress in my room, but the rest of the weekend I'm staying at my cousin James' house." He explained.
"Awesome! We can stay up all night playing video games and stuff!" I barely refrained myself from saying shit.
Lily laughed at me. "You can curse Nialler. You're an adult."
"Mmmm, nope. Don't wanna influence the young children." I played with Stephan's hair.
May stood at the top of the stairs, "Moms making pizza. Anyone want any special toppings?"
A familiar female voice yelled from the back door, "I want pepperoni!"
"Alright! Liz, I need to talk to you and Lily. Meet me in my room?"
The two of them yelled yes. Lily walked up the stairs with Zayn. I turned around to see the one girl I can't seem to get off my mind. "Hi Niall."
"I'll leave you two alone." Stephan giggled as he went out the back door.
