He Was Mine

Chapter 6

I sit on a chair on my balcony, sketching in my book as I do to clear my mind. I think back to what Stacy said allowing a tear to roll down my cheek. I look back at the pad to see I drew a huge pencil line straight through the middle. Sighing I rip out the page and throw it to the ground. I look up and see Niall coming outside onto his balcony.
"Um hey Fallon." He says nervously.
"Hi Niall." I slump down in my chair.
"I'm really sorry about earlier." He blurts out.
"I feel awful! I shouldn't have said those things." He truly looks sorry. He lowers his head and looks at the floor.
"I forgive you."
"What?" His head pops up.
"I forgive you." I repeat.
"You were just looking out for me and I overreacted. Thank you." I smile at him.
"So can I hear you play guitar?"
"Uh, I'm not very good." He blushes.
"I still wanna hear." He sighs.
"Fineeee" He walks into his room and comes out holding an acoustic guitar.

He sits down, looks at me then at the strings and begins to strum. His fingers dance across the thin strings creating a beautiful sound. He stops playing.
"That's all I know."
"Wow Niall that was amazing! What song was that?"
"So sick." He says.
"Can you sing for me?" I ask batting my eyelashes. He sighs. He begins to strum the strings. I close my eyes and enjoy the beautiful sounds.

Mmmm mmm yeah
Do do do do do do do-do
Ohh Yeah

Gotta change my answering machine
Now that I'm alone
Cause right now it says that we
Can't come to the phone
And I know it makes no sense
Cause you walked out the door
But it's the only way I hear your voice anymore
(it's ridiculous)
It's been months
And for some reason I just
(can't get over us)
And I'm stronger than this
(enough is enough)
No more walking round
With my head down
I'm so over being blue
Crying over you

And I'm so sick of love songs
So tired of tears
So done with wishing you were still here
Said I'm so sick of love songs so sad and slow
So why can't I turn off the radio?

The music stops and I open my eyes. I stare at him with wide eyes.
"I'm that bad?" He asks.
"Are you kidding me?! Niall that was amazing! Fabulous! Extraordinary! Brilliant! Phenomenal!"
"Woah."
"You should go on TV!" I jump up with excitement.
"Fallon, I can't." I stop jumping when he says this.
"What?! Why?!"
"I...I'm too shy." I lean across and take his hands.
"Ni you're an amazing singer and the world should see your talent." I notice him looking at our hands with bright red cheeks.
"Think about it k?"
"I will. What were you drawing?" He's eyes fall onto my sketchbook.
"Uh nothing. I uh have to go. Bye Niall!" I grab my book and rush inside. I throw my sketchbook under my bed and go downstairs. No one can see what's in there... No one can know my secrets...
