The Childhood Memory

Chapter Twenty-Four: They Don't Know About Us

NIALL'S POV: 

It's official, I'm jetlagged. The plane ride to London from Ireland was seriously stressful, I lightly massage my temples. Trying to remove the stupid jetlag I am suffering from now. 

My phone suddenly vibrated, I grab it and looked at the caller I.D, Unknown. 

I pressed the answer button and put the phone in my ear. 

"Hello?" I asked, while still massaging my temples with my thumb. 

"Hey, irish boy" A girly voice snickered through the line. My eyes got wide, it can't be Chloe. She doesn't speak this way, this voice is way too flirty.  Who the hell is this? 

"Who's this?" I groggily asked, quickly jumping away from my bed. 

"Is this how eay you forget people, Niall?" She asked in a flirty tone. Which makes my ears bleed. 

"Miss, who are you? I got no time for pranks" I impatiently spat through the line. 

She chuckled. 

"I'm Raina. Raina Styles, remember?" She asked, I got easily confused. Why would a rich, brat girl will call me? 

"Oh Raina. This is Niall speaking" I formally answered. Lazily making my way to the kitchen. 

"No need to be formal, babe" She said through the line. Of course, what do you expect? In a flirty tone basically. 

"So, why'd you call?" I asked, wanting to press the 'end call' button. I got no time for morning flirting. 

"Well, I just wanna know where you are?" Her words becoming a question instead of a statement. 

"Why?" My eyebrows raised. What's with this cunt? 

"I obviously want to see you, Niall!" She squealed through the line. And I swear, it's damn deafening. 

"Oh. Thats, cool" I muttered. 

"Well, we will have a formal family dinner at a private place downtown. And I want you to come" She said, I quickly grab a bowl filled it with morning flakes and a fresh milk. 

"I'm basically not a family. So, why would I come?" I asked her, in a duh expression. 

"Well, you're gonna be my date. Cause I don't wanna feel so lonely, you know? Harry and Chloe are together. So, basically I'm gonna be a forever alone gal there." She said, I almost spit the cereals in my mouth. 

Did I just heard that right? 

"What did you said?" I asked, fully paying attention at my phone. Quickly ignoring my morning flakes. 

"I want you to be my d-" I cut her off. 

"No. About Chloe?" I asked, my heart beat getting faster. 

"Oh, that thing? Well, yeah. Harry and her are together. Don't you know? I thought you're her best friend?" She said, in a sarcastic tone. 

She's with Harry? But I thought she's with me? She told me that she loves me back. Right? No, this can't be happening. 

I felt my body weakening, my head was full of questions. 

"Niall!" Raina squealed through the line. Which brought me back to reality. 

"W-What?" I asked, my hands trembling. 

"I'm asking you to be my date. Duh!?" She said. 

But something clicked in my mind.
