Just a Runaway // Niall Horan // Book 1

So Confused - Chapter 37

This chapter is going to be longer..hopefully. It should be! It's going to be a little informative. We'll see how it goes (:

------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

The whole day was spent with my family, and Niall of course. 

We tried to not spend as much time as possible in public, though. We weren't really ready for all the paparazzi, not only with Niall, but with me, mom, and my brothers. Carmen and Roger have still been a topic in the news, so I figured I'm still part of it. It's going to take a long time for all this to be put aside. Everything is starting to get out. By getting out, I mean that the citizens are starting to hear everything about the testing and all that crap. 

I'm actually glad that all the news is getting out. If everyone finds out, then I'm sure a majority of them are going to want to stop everything. 

Anyways, we figured out all the details and how everything is going to play out...sort of. There's still a debate on what's going to happen with me. Kaden and Alex are going to live with my mom, who lives over in Michigan. But not in Detroit. She said it was more up north, like up towards Cass City. 

I knew she'd want me to live there with her, but there was the whole situation with me and Niall. If I lived back in Michigan, we'd be so far apart. Too far apart. 

She said I was only seventeen and that I should finish school. I knew inside that she didn't want to separate me from Niall, but yet she wanted me to get at least my High School Diploma. 

After discussion though, we figured that I could just do my schooling on the Internet, and that there were programs and everything where I can get contact to teachers. 

I know she didn't want to let me go again, and let me go almost halfway around the world, and that she wanted to spend time with me, and make up for all the time she didn't have me as her own. 

We had worked out an agreement that I would have to visit very much. It was almost December. I had already missed Thanksgiving, but I knew Alex and Kaden celebrated with their 'families'. 

Since in two days it was December 1st, I would come back in just less than a month and visit everyone for Christmas.

We got into the discussion about me and my chemo, but Niall kept denying that she pay for any of it.  Louis and I already had a conversation about this once before. He said that since they took me in and everything, that they were going to pay for everything, no matter what anyone said. 

Yes, it made me feel really guilty about it, but I guess dealing it would be better than starting an argument and getting mad at everyone when they're trying to help me.

I still can't believe what's happened over the past two months or so. I mean, all I did was leave to a city that I've almost dreamed of being in. What were the odds that I'd run into Harry, and now all of us were good friends?

I'm sure that there were pictures from when Harry and I were on the bench, and in the shop. I'm one hundred percent positive there were pictures from the time all of us were in the shop, considering we had to leave really fast due to all the girls. 

I still wasn't sure how they found me in that alley, but whatever. I should just leave it all in the past now. 

Besides getting all the planning done, we spent time driving around DC, looking at all the old, the new, and the very big.

We had driven over by the Washington Monument, and could see the Lincoln Memorial. We went over by the Capitol building, and tried to take in how big it was. I wonder how many people in there new about all the testing.
