Chapter 19

“I’m going to call it off.” I said as I flopped down on Nicole’s bed.

“What? No! Why!” yelled Nicole as she tossed her bag onto the small recliner, “Please don’t tell me that this has anything to do with Niall, because if it does I swear I’ll throw a damn bucket of cold water on you.” I groaned falling back on the bed covering my face. “Come on Mel you have to! Josh isn’t a bad guy he is really sweet, funny, and that lion tattoo makes me swoon. Why would you want to flake?”

“Josh isn’t all that sweet trust me.” I said as I starred up at the ceiling.

“You’re only saying that because Niall said it. Just because that soon to be leprechaun from the hood says it doesn’t make it true.”

Glancing at Nicole I smiled, “Leprechaun from the hood?”

Throwing her boots into the closet Nicole says, “Say what you want but I still say Niall has a hood soul, he is like half hood, half Irish he’s Hoodrish.” Laughing I turned my eyes back to the ceiling as Nicole says, “So go ahead and tell me. Why is Josh not so sweet?”

I sighed, “Josh has a girlfriend back home.”

Nicole starred at me, “You’re lying.”

“I wish.”

“How did you find out?”

“Josh went to the tattoo shop with Harry and while talking to Harry he let it slip. Harry text me and told me what happen just as Josh text me asking if I wanted to have dinner.”

Nicole sat at the head of the bed, “Damn that blows, I’m so deducting brownie point from his cause. What are you going to do now?”

“Um continue to live life?”

Nicole hits me on my leg with a pillow, “I’m talking about your birthday, and how now you don’t have a date.”

“Who said I was supposed to have a date?”

“Nobody, but we were all expecting you too since it is your day and all.”

I shook my head, “Well I won’t have a date. I just want to spend the night with my friends.” I looked over at Nicole as I said, “But if you want to bring a date, please by all means do.” Nicole smiled and says, “Okay.” turning on her laptop she starts browsing the web as I drift off to sleep.

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

I woke up about 10 o’clock that night and after running into Max, long enough for him to tell me Josh left, I hugged him, said goodnight then headed home. Walking in the house, I noticed Niall wasn’t there. I grabbed a bottle of water and headed to my room when I saw a sticky note stuck on my door,

Went out for drinks, I won’t be back tonight see you in the am

xxNiall

Balling up the paper I opened my door and tossed it in the trash. I wasn’t about to get upset over Niall and his note. “He always went out and never came home, this isn’t nothing new or different.” I reminded myself as I showered and got ready for bed.

Waking up at 8 I pulled on some sweats and a long sleeve shirt as I left for dance class. UNI was much like high school to me, you had to take math, science, foreign language, English literature, physical education, and some BS electives. I never liked P.E so I decided that Dance was my easy way out, it was like Zumba I just had to perform in annual shows for extra credit. Luckily I had Nicole sign up for this class with me a few weeks ago when it started or I would’ve been stuck in this class with Jess, who I still can’t believe let a guy come between our friendship.
