Niall drove me home after our discussion and the silence was eating me alive. I wanted to talk with him and have fun but he wasn't in the mood to be fun, which was odd for him. Niall always at least made somewhat of an effort to not be awkward so I hated this feeling with him. He was so quiet and unlike him.

"I'll talk to him", I said when Niall pulled up in front of my house. I leaned over and kissed his cheek and he didn't even move.

"You do that", he smiled but it didn't seem genuine and I walked up the front door and inside of my house. 

I don't think Niall thought I was being honest with him and I couldn't him blame him. After all that happened with Harry, I would think I was lying at first too but the least he could do was give me a chance to prove myself to him. I was being as honest as possible with him and I was willing to tell Harry off. It was frustrating that Niall was being the way he was and not just having faith in me.

I didn't know if I should text or call Harry. Hearing his voice was going to be enough to kill me but texting him was just the same. Harry was expecting me to cave and try to win him back but I didn't want to come off like that. I missed Harry and I would love to have him in my life on a regular basis but it wasn't going to happen. I knew that I couldn't be weak when it came to Harry this time around. 

I paced around the house a bit deep in thought thinking over which was better. I wanted to text him because then I wouldn't have the chance to get attached to his voice. But, what if I said something and the tone or the point of my text didn't get across properly. I wanted to call him and just talk to him for what could be one last time. I wanted to call him just so that I could just say all that I needed to say. So after too much thinking about something so small, I decided to call Harry.

"What do you need Daisy?", he asked and I was taken back by how forceful and angry he sounded.

"I needed to talk to you about Niall", I said and I could hear him sigh.

"I was hoping he would tell you about that."

"Why are you trying to ruin everything, Harry?", I said, the tone in my voice showing his disappointed I was in him.

"I didn't ruin anything you did. You ruined our trust, you ruined our bond, all we had you ruined that by just talking to him", he said and I felt guilty for putting so much blame on him but it was all true. If he was just calm and let me have friends none of this would ever happen. 

"I can have friends, Harry" I said trying to defend myself. Niall was a friend to me when I was with Harry. That was all he was and all I ever thought he would be at the time.

"He is a threat."

"Harry, I'm sorry", I said and I meant it," But I don't think you should control the fact that I wanted to go to a school dance with someone. He is a friend and that is all it is. The fact that you can't let me live or even trust me shows your insecurity."

I wanted this conversation to go well and to solve our problems but I didn't see that happening. I thought I had changed Harry. I thought because of me he was becoming a better person and I thought he was different. Now I was seeing his true colors shine through again. He was not the man I thought that I had made him.

"Just respect our relationship when you're with him", he said and I was confused.

"What do you mean?", I asked," You're mad at me. You needed time and you didn't want to talk to me and now you are asking me to respect our relationship?"

"I still love you and I want to be with you. I get jealous and you know that. I just want you to respect what we have when you are with him. How hard is that to understand?"

"I don't know, Harry. I just don't know about you or what I want anymore."

"I miss you", he said and I could tell that he was trying to soften me up to him. He wanted me to love him again and what a relationship with him.

"Why were you making threats at Niall?", I asked and the line went practically silent.

"He fucking told you that too?", he said and I rolled my eyes. I don't understand why harry thought that Niall would just tell me a little bit of what Harry told him. The most important part of what Harry told Niall was that he threatened him.

"Of course he did and I don't think that was very mature of you", I said reprimanding him," I don't think you should be treating him like that for taking me to prom. He isn't going to do anything to me and you were acting like he was like the worst person ever."

"I'm sorry."

"I'm not the one you should be apologizing to, Its Niall", I said and he groaned again," Please apologize to him for me."

"Do I have to?", he asked in a childlike voice. He didn't want to do this but I was going to force him to. Niall was clearly taking this out on me even though I did nothing wrong and I wanted it to stop.

"Please harry, he is like my only friend and I don't want to lose him", I begged.

"You have me... I'm your friend."

"Harry", I said dragging out the letters in his name," Please just do it for me?"

"Okay", he said and I smiled thinking about how things were finally falling back into place. It was all perfect once again. I was happy with how this conversation went and happy to know that he was still my boyfriend. I hated that it had to come to me begging for him to apologize but it worked. 

"Thank you."

"Can i come over?", he asked and I smiled. Things seemed like they were becoming normal. I liked being with Harry and the feeling I had being with an older man. I was worried though because of what Niall would say. Would he be mad at me for being with Harry? Did he think that him and I were committed to each other over the past few days? 

I was a little nervous to text him but I had a lot to look forward to. Harry was coming over and I wanted to give him all of my attention instead of dealing with Niall. 

Niall: Harry just texted me and it says ," I'm such a dick sometimes and I over reacted about you and Daisy. I apologize for being like that. Just promise me you will keep her safe at prom and not do anything stupid". 

Niall: I thought you two weren't together..

Niall: Did you lie to me ?

Niall: Daisy please answer... I'm not mad, I'm just worried. 

Niall: Whatever... Daisy I'll pick you up at 6:30 for prom. I really do love you and I don't care if you are with harry I just want to talk to you and be friends with you.

Niall: Daisy...
