Just Beneath The Surface *Niall Horan Fanfiction*

Chapter 21

the sun was shining and the birds sang happily in the trees above. bees fluttered from flower to flower, and the wind whistled through trees sending leaves floating down to the ground. the leaves were just starting to chance as autumn was beinning. shades of yellow orange and red filled the tree tops and the temperature began to get cooler and cooler everyday. you sat on a park bench admiring the beauty that is mother nature. your fingers were intertwined in the hand of the boy you loved. his blonde hair reflected the suns rays, his eyes were on you, watching you as the wind caused your cheeks to turn a rosy red color. you turned and him and smiled, causing the same reaction from him. you got lost in those electric blue eyes and the space between you to began to get smaller and smaller. he lifted up one of his hands and tucked a piece of your light brown hair behind your ear. your lips were centimeters apart as your eyes closed waiting for the passionate kiss you've been longing for. 

a boom of thunder shook the house as you awoke early the next morning with a fright. a thunderstorm was in full force, ruining your perfectly realistic dream. you tried again and again to try and go back to sleep and relive every moment, but it was impossible. it wasn't a gorgeous day and Niall wasn't here with you. he was miles and miles away probably traveling on a noisy tour bus. you rolled over in bed and closed your eyes, hoping to melt back into a world, more perfect than this

*********Niall's POV*********

distance makes the heart grow fonder and that was exactly the case. i had to endure countless sleepless nights because of this girl. i just couldn't get her off my mind, she's my everything. my heart stops for a second when i hear her excited 'hello' when she picks up her phone in the middle of the night. i made sure to call right after ever concert, even though she was usually sleeping, but she insisted she wanted to hear from me every night. i was on the phone from the second i stepped off the stage, until i was forced to say goodbye because she had school the next morning. we texted, we called, but nothing is the same as having the one you love by your side. i miss her more than anything, but we're both so busy. so i lay awake every night thinking about her, until i eventually fall asleep. i don't know how much longer i can do this. the boys have noticed im not myself since she left, and they see how happy i am when i talk to her. Liam usually talks to me and gives me advice since he's going through the same thing with Danielle, but he doesn't understand. he doesn't understand that this girl is my world, and i only want to spend time with her. i wish she would just appear in front of me so i could hold her close to me, if only.
