Foolish ~ {One Direction Fan-Fiction}

Chapter 34

Foolish~34

*REESE POV*

Niall and I are cuddled close. Chatting about random things.

"So tell me about your trip" I say and his eyes go wide.

"Wait a minute. What about... Theo....?" I ask and he swallows.

With all the Harry mess I had totally forgotten.

"Oh. Denise's sister took him" he says.

"How come?"

"Well she insisted. We went to her house and she seemed like the perfect person to raise him. We're not fit to take care of a child. The spotlight is no place for my nephew" he says.

"Well what's her name?"

"Alex Cliff" he replies.

"Wait. Alexandra Cliff?" I ask. My heart is racing.

"Yes...?" He replies confused. "What's wrong?"

"I've heard that name before..." I say really trying to remember.

*knock knock*
"Niall, Reese it's time to go" Paul says at the hotel door.

"Coming! We'll talk about this on the flight" Niall says jumping out of bed.

He isn't really phased by the sister taking Theo.

I shouldn't be either. But ughhhh my gut is churning. There's just something not right about all this.

Niall is in sweats and I go to my suitcase to find the same.

"actually Niall can I wear your one piece" I ask randomly.

"Um sure" he laughs.

I put it on and it swallows me.

"Hahahahahahahaha!!" Niall rolls on the bed laughing.

It fits alright, besides the legs bunching because of my height.

"Shut up. It's comfy"

The usual boarding and sitting next to Niall on the flight. Harry isn't even wasting his energy worrying about us.

He puts in his earbuds and watches a movie on his iPad.

I slip low into my chair and rest my knees on the seat in front of me.

Seeing Harry not showing any emotion hurts my chest. This was all too familiar to me.

Maybe he doesn't really care. He walked away from me yesterday just as easily as he did over a year ago.

My emotions are clawing at my tear ducts.

The familiar craving of alcohol is on the back of my tongue.

"Are you hungry love?" Niall asks as the service lady walks by.

"Oh um. Can I have some crisps?" I ask and she nods happily giving me a bag. Niall orders a whole fricken meal.

"And she'll have a coffee as well" he gets a drink for me.

"Wait why coffee?"

"You're not breathing well baby. Coffee helps. Are you okay?" He puts an arm around me as the piping hot cup is placed in front of me.

"I'm fine" I say sipping it.

"Princess. I know you. Something's on your mind"

I want to be honest. Kind of.

"I'm still struggling with Harry" I half lie.

"Well didn't you say he forgave you?"

"Yeah"

"Then you shouldn't have to worry Reese. You've done all that you can and he said he forgave you. And you can't have that pressure on you. You aren't physically able"

"Niall what the hell does that mean?"

"I'm sorry. I didn't mean it in a mean way.. I just don't want you suffering anymore than you have. I love you and I want you fully well" he corrects himself and I sigh.

I kiss his lips gently.

He smiles warmly. Looking a little harassed.

"Okay you can eat now" I say laughing and he exhales with excitement.

He chomps down his meal and I pick at my crisps.

My mind begins to roll with the scenarios.

I wondered what it had been like if we had Theo.....

THEO!

Alexandria CLIFF. I've got to look her up.

"Hey Louis can I borrow your laptop?" I ask and he obliges.

I open google and search the name.

I gasp deeply as my stomach falls out my ass.

"What love?"

"I knew I've heard that name before"

Niall's plain expression turns to horror as he reads the article.

"How did you not know this?!?" I scream.

"I DIDNT KNOW IF YOU WERE WITH ME YOU WOULD HAVE THOUGHT THE SAME THING" he screams and the entire plane goes silent.

"OH MY GOD" I start to panic. My heart rate has increased a billion times.

"What is going on?!" Liam shouts.

"THEOS BEEN ADOPTED BY A CRIMINAL"
