Rescue Me (Niall Horan) (UNDER EDITING)

Chapter 20: The Trial

Niall's P.O.V

I sat alone and watched as the trial began...

"All stand for honourable Judge Abby." Everyone rose from their seats as a woman in a black robe took a seat in a big chair at the front of the room.

"Today we bring before you the case of Niall Horan versus Tara Allen." Ya. My trial. If this was truly my trial then I would be in that courtroom and then I would tell everyone there to fuck off. Then Tara and I would go skipping off into the god damn sunset. 

Too much?

Yeah I thought so...

"The prosecutor may begin his conviction." Judge Abby spoke.

"In usual circumstances I would explain what happened, but I have a witness who can do that for me. I call Ryan Locker to the stand." The man who was 'defending' me said.

I watched as that manipulative, conniving little prick calmly made his way to the stand. He took the oath to tell the whole truth and nothing but the truth.... Lie.

"Ryan, can you tell us what happened when you first found out about Tara's involvement with Mr. Horan." He nodded.

"It was about six weeks ago. Tara approached me and told me of a plot to break up the world famous One Direction. I was sceptical and couldn’t understand why she would do that? I tried to convince her against it because I know how wrong it is. At the time she agreed, but a week later she approached me with an evil smirk. She... She..." He begin so stutter. Then the camera zoomed in and you could see tears starting to fall. 

WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK! HE'S CRYING ON THE STAND! OH MY GOD HE'S SUCH AN ASSHOLE! HE HAS TO LIE TO EVERYONE'S FACE BUT THAT'S NOT GOOD ENOUGH!

HE'S CRYING FOR SYMPATHY!!! ARE YOU JOKING ME!!! IF I WAS IN THAT ROOM I WOULD BE PUNCHING HIS FACE AND MAKING SURE HE PAYS FOR WHAT HE'S DONE TO MY LIFE AND WHAT HE'S DONE TO TARAS LIFE!!!!

"Mr. Locker. Please. What did she do?" I subconsciously leaned towards the screen and waited to hear the next lie he told.

"Okay.. sorry.. well. She approached me and asked her to follow her. I walked down an alley with her, which on the way she tripped and hurt her arm. I asked if she needed to go to the hospital, but she huffed and carried on."

My mouth gawked open. He did not just... He.. He...

"I followed her until we came across a lad who was passed out cold. He looked as if he was beaten severely. It wasn't until she spoke that I knew this was the Niall Horan."

I can't even believe what I'm hearing right now? How could he be so naive. As soon as I can talk I'll tell everyone the truth and he will go to jail for a huge length of time.

He will go to jail not only for lying to the entire world and trying to frame Tara, but also for assault. And by the looks of things... that was not his first time hurting her. He's way too experienced for something like that.

"I'm sorry... This is a very emotional moment..." Oh please you mother fucker. "She.. Threatened me. And she also threatened the rest of the lads. I only agreed because I couldn't have anyone else hurt. But I made sure she called the hospital first. He couldn't die. I would never have let it go that far."

I had to look away from the screen. This is too unbearable. I walk over to the window and look outside. It was now a cloudy, and raining day.

This is the perfect weather for such a miserable day. Everything seems to be going wrong.

Louis' in the hospital.

Tara’s on trial.

Ryan is becoming friends with the lads.
