One Thing ➳ n.h

Chapter 34

Emma's POV

"Hope you all enjoyed! Make some noise for the boys in the band will ya?" I winked and walked off the stage.

The screams of fans began to subside as I got further and further backstage. I did it... The last show of the Uktour...

"Amazing job Emmaline!" Emmy cheered.

"Thanks!" I said and hugged her. "Hey meet me in my dressing room ok I'll be right there."

"Ok hurry!" She said and skipped off to the back room.

I have no idea where anyone else is. Probably getting ready. I walk over to the table of snacks and surprisingly Niall isn't here. I laugh to myself and pile a paper plate with snacks. The plate is suddenly knocked out of my hand and I turn to face Brittany.

"What do you want?" I ask annoyed picking up the mess and throw it away.

"I want you to stop dating Niall and go away!" She said angrily.

"In your dreams."

"He will be mine you'll see... Even if I have to get rid of you."

"Niall wouldn't date you if you were the last person on the face of the planet!" I say raising my voice.

"You see that's where you're wrong sweetheart." She says and wipes her hand slowly across my face.

I ignore it and start to walk away but she grabs my wrist, stopping me.

"You'll never be a good singer... Ever... I'm a vocalist I would know. Your voice sucks and Niall doesn't truly love you. I will have him you'll see." She says moving in close to my ear. "You'll see..."

She smiles evilly and disappears.

I lean up against the nearest wall and slowly sink down to the ground. Years threaten to spill over my eye lids but I try to hold them back. It has never been this bad before... She's gone to far this time but she won't get my Niall... Ever... That is the one thing she can't take away from me. I bring my knees into my chest and fold my arms over them, laying my head down and crying into my long sleeves. I hate how I can't stand up for myself... I hate how she gets in my head... I hate how she always puts me down... I hate her... I hate her! I throw my head back and bang it on the wall, creating a sore spot on the back of my head. I continue to sob loudly. I hear footsteps and I panic. I don't want the boys to see me like this... I duck into a nearby supply closet and shut the door. I try to stay quiet as I hear muffled voices.

Niall's POV

I walk up to the snack table with Louis and start piling a plate with food. I haven't seen Emma at all since she came off the stage. What happened to her? She just disappeared...

"Hey Lou." I said pulling a muffin onto the pile of food.

"Yes Ni?" He says picking a cookie off the table.

"Have you seen Em?"

"Nope can't say that I have lad..." He says taking a bite of the cookie.

"Oh..."

"Is something wrong?"

"I just haven't seen her is all... I'm starting to get worried."

"Don't be I'm sure she's just in her dressing room."

"Yeah wanna come with me to see her?" I ask finishing my selection of food.

"Sure!" Louis chimes as he picks up another cookie.

We walk down the corridor and reach Emma's room. I knock twice and open the door. As I walk in only Emmy is in the room.

"Where's Emma?" She asks with worry in her voice.
