It's Just A Bad Day, NOT A Bad Life. (A Niall Horan fanfic)

The Ex (chapter 9)

As we took a seat in the corner of the room where no one would notice us, our waitress came and handed us the menu's. "May I get you anything to drink?" She asked very politely. "Just water for me please." I responded knowing I have to be hydrated for tomorrow. "A coke for me." Niall said after a minute of thinking.
"Thanks for coming to practice by the way. I hope you weren't bored the whole time." I thanked him trying to start a conversation.
"No it was fun! I'm glad I came. That hit you did was amazing though! How did you learn how to hit like that?" He seemed very curious.
"To be honest I don't know. I guess it just clicked, and thanks. It wasn't that good of a hit, but I'm glad you think so." I said with a kind smile.
"Well, how will you get to your game tomorrow? Do you need a ride." He seemed like he wanted to go.
"I run to all my games unless they're to far. This one is at the field that we were at earlier so I guess I'll run." I answered thinking on who I was playing.
"Mind if I join?"
"Sure! Why not! Beware there may be a little fight. If someone I know is there." I think I scared him a bit. I knew who I was playing I knew they're weakness. In fact it was my ex-bestfriend Grace. This should be fun. "What do you mean fight?!" He asked concerned. "I said may not is. Calm down its nothing it's just a girl who.... Never mind it doesn't matter." I said thinking on why she did what she did when we were younger. A tear started to form in my eye, and I think Niall noticed. "Hey. Don't cry. What happened. And don't say it was nothing. I know it's a lie." I looked him the eyes and the tear escaped. "I don't wanna talk about it. I just hope she doesn't pick anything or says anything from my past." I looked away. I realized that our waitress with our drinks. "Have you figured what you wanted to eat yet?" She asked with a sweet smile. Niall, and I both ordered. We are our meals. I went up to pay, and Niall stopped me. "You don't have to pay. I got it." He smiled at me, and before I could do or say anything he already payed. "Thanks. You didn't have to do that." I said while looking at the ground. I stopped in my tracks realizing someone pulled my arm. I look up, and see Drake. What does he want now? "What do you want." I asked with a bit of annoyance in my voice. "I'm sorry for what I did, can we please get back together?" I'm not falling for his games again. "No." I turned to catch up to Niall who was standing there trying to figure out what was going on. "Why? So you can date this piece of poop! He's just using you Breiana!" His words hurt. "We aren't even dating! And why do you care! He's not using me, and he's not a piece of poop! Your the piece of poop! You're the one who used me! And now that I'm finally happy you want to ruin it like last time right! Well that's not gonna happen!" I grabbed Niall's arm and turned to go. We got in the car. All I wanted to do was cry. Why? Cause the memories came back. He using me. He taking me away when I tried to hang out with my friends. I lost friends due to him. The girls that i have as friends now. I didn't realize that we were at the house cause how deep I was in my thoughts "Breiana. We're back." Niall said as he snapped his fingers in front of my face. "Oh okay." I dragged myself out of the car, and into the house. Next thing I knew is that I was being hug attacked by Louis. "Louis get off! I'm not in the mood!" I snapped and he got off. "Why what happened everyone asked. "I don't want to talk about it. I'll be back." I got up, when I work the first step out the door. I ran. As fast I could. I ended up in a meadow that I went when I was younger. I just sat there, and I started to cry. I couldn't hold it in. I laid down on the green grass, and just cried. I didn't care if anyone saw or if I was being loud, because I couldn't hold it in. The hurt, the pain, and the memory came to mind I started thinking "what did I do to deserve that? Why would he ever want me back?" I stopped crying after awhile. I realized the sun started to set, so I decided to head back to the guys place. I needed to keep my mind off things, so I decided to run back. I knocked on the door hoping someone would answer. The door opened, and there stood Niall. "Hi." I said giving him a fake smile. "Have you been crying?" He said looking deep into my eyes. "No...." I lied. I don't want people to know if I cried or not. Why would I? I'm not one of though's people. "I know you're lying. Here, come with me." I followed him until we reached the lake we were at before. "Why are we here?" I simply asked still trying not to cry. "So we can talk. Why were you gone so long? Where did you even go?" He seemed concerned. "I went to a place close to my heart, and I was out cause I needed to clear my mind. I couldn't hold it in any longer." I looked at the ground not wanting to look into his crystal blue eyes. "What couldn't you hold?" He put his hand under his chin making me look at him. I didn't answer. I had tears forming in my eyes, I blinked them away not wanting to cry. "You know you can cry right? I'm here for you. I'm not gonna hurt you, Breiana. I know you're hurting. I can't imagine having to go through everything you did. Please, just let me in. I don't want you to feel alone anymore. If hurts me to see you in pain. Please." I was still looking in his eyes. I was still processing this through my mind. I could hold it back anymore. I cried. It wasn't just any cry. I let it all out. He just hugged me holding me in his arms. He rubbed circles on my back trying to calm me down. I think I might have feelings for Niall, but he probably doesn't like me back anyways. After awhile I stopped crying, we just stood there. "Do you feel a little better?" I did, I really, really did. "More then a little." He looked down at me, and gave me a smile. "So what are you doing tomorrow night after your game?" I thought, well all I had planed was my game. "Nothing actually." I smiled. "I uh. Was k-kinda wondering I-if you wanted to go on a d-date with me?" I say Niall's face turn rose red. "Of course!" I jumped up a hugged him. "It's about time." I whispered in his ear. I pulled away, and smiled at him. I started to lean in, he did the same as our lips crashed together, it wasn't a deep intense kiss, it was a simple kiss full of love, and passion. I felt a spark as I kissed him, but the thing is. Was this love? I know I said I loved him, but then again. I don't know what love is.
