More Than This (A Niall Horan Fan Fiction)

Chapter 14

Niall's POV

Finally! I finally told Thalia the truth, what I really feel towards her.

Honestly, I already have a little crush on her when we were about 7th grade. But I kept it to myself because we were young and I was more than afraid on how would she react if she'll know the truth rather than thinking that she would not like me back. And I just don't want to break our friendship. She is my best friend, I don't want her to ignore me, I don't want to lose her ... she's just so important to me.

Long story short, I can't stand her being away from me just because of my infatuation for her. So with that, I struggled myself to fight back my feelings towards her by pushing myself to have a crush to other cute girls in some of my classes until I knew Alliyah. Alliyah completely made me forget my feelings towards Thalia but not until I realize that I get jealous of Marc whenever he is with or even near my best friend. I wonder if Thalia feels the same way if I'm with Alliyah who I had a massive crush on until I realize I'm still in love with Thalia.

Anyway, I kissed Thalia last night. I kissed my best friend, the girl I admire the most, and the girl I truly love.

Our kiss was amazing. It felt magical that until now, it feels like I'm still feeling her kisses. It may sound very corny but it's true. Definitely it was different from the first one which happened at a wrong time but kissing her is not regretful.

"I love you more, Niall." She was the one who broke the kiss just to tell me she loves me too. I didn't even want to end the kiss so I replied to her by kissing her once again.

Later that night, she rested her head on my shoulder and intertwined her fingers to mine. Then my phone rang. Someone unknown was calling but I answered it anyway. It was someone from the X Factor, telling me that they're inviting me for the next round on stage. I freaked out. Both Thalia and I freaked out. She told me that she's excited and very proud of me that inspires me to do my best even more.

"This is so complicated." I whispered, referring to everything.

"I know." She murmured, looking up to the stars above us.

And that was last night.

And here I am right now, starting to pack things to go to UK next week. This is it. My one great dream is about to come true. Wish me all the luck.

My phone rings and I answer. It's Thalia. "Hey, can I come over?"

"Since when did you ask permission to or not to?" I laugh and I heard her chuckles.

"Right. Okay, see you, then!"

"Bye."

Moments later, there's a knock on my door frame. Of course, it's Thalia. She walks to my room and make herself comfortable onto my bed.

"Hi."

"Hi."

"Packing so soon?"

Her question makes me sad in an instant. I miss her already. "Yeah."

"Aww," She smiles. "May I help you?"

"That would be lovely."

*****

"God, Niall, I will miss you." She pouts and from that moment, I had to keep her mine.

Before I will fly to the UK, I will ask her to be my girlfriend. I say to myself and I will do it.

"Wont you miss me?" She laughs.

"No." I tease and she immediately throw a pillow to me.

"Fuck!" I choke.

"I know!" She laughs. She has a very funny laugh that you couldn't help but get along with her laughing. "Wait, I have an idea." She exclaims with a virtual light bulb pops out of her head.

"What about that?" I ask, throwing the pillow back at her.

"You're free for the next next day, right?"

"Yes."

"I'm wondering if we could take a bike around the town?" She wiggles her brows at me.

"With your motorbike?!"

"Yeah."

"That's cool. But you're pro driving it now?"

"If you were just aware, my brothers are giving me a driving lesson sometimes." She mumbles and yes, I'm not aware of it. I have been busy.

"Deal!" I take out my hand for her to shake it.

She reaches for my hand and shake it, "Deal."
