Dark Niall

chapter 10

~Dark Niall~10

I wake up to my phone buzzing. I jump up waking Niall as well. As soon as he feels me jolt his arm is around me at once. "Ni, I'm fine my phone just scared me." I say trying to wiggle out of his grasp. He loosens up enough for me to grab my phone and answer it. "Hello?" I say sitting up now. "Hey Lillie, umm where are you?" It was Phil. I look at the clock and see it reads 12:15 pm. Shit I was suppose to be at work at 12:00. I jump up and grab my bag and run to Niall's bathroom. I yank out the makeup I have in there and start to apply it to my face. "Oh my god Phil, I am so sorry, I slept in! Please cover for me just for like ten more minutes! I'll be right there!" I see Niall standing in the door way with his eyebrows scrunched together. "Ok, but only because you've never been late before." Phil hangs up. "Who was that?" Niall asks already knowing. "It was Phil. I'm late for work, I have to go." Niall's body tenses. I finish applying my makeup and try to walk past him. But of course he doesn't let me. "Niall." I whine. "I don't want you to go to work." He whispers kissing my cheek and leaving his lips there. "I have to." Was all I said before finally pushing pass him. He groaned but took my hand. "I'll drive." He said unwillingly.

After Niall dropped me off I ran to Phil. "I'm really sorry I know I look like a mess everything, I just spent the night over Niall's and I sle-" "Okay, don't want to know about your guys sex life!" Phil says covering his ears. I hit him. "Oh shut up, I wasn't, we haven't, ugh never my mind perv." I say slipping on my work apron. Phil laughs and joins me. "So I'm surprised he didn't come in here and kick my ass." He says smirking. I roll my eyes. "Trust me Phil, your lucky he didn't." Phil puts his hands up In defense. "Hey I believe he could hurt me. That kid has crazy in his eyes." I ignore him and carrying on working. About an hour before my shift is done I get a text from Niall.

Niall: sorry baby not gonna be able to pick you up....work :(

Lillie: oh okay :( I guess I can have Phil drive me home ;)

Niall: over my dead body. Have Becca pick you up.

Lillie: lol just kidding Ni :p I'll give Becca a call

Niall: Lillie if I find out you walked home I'm going to be very upset, so I'll be sure to call Becca and ask ;)

Lillie: ok ok, calling her now

Niall: thank you :)

I roll my eyes and dial Becca's number. Well thankfully she had her car back and she could. Niall texted saying he talked to Becca and everything. He said he wasn't coming home till late. When Becca picked me up she also said she was working late tonight. I had I feeling Niall wasn't going to like the idea of me being home alone and it was hard not to tell him, since he frenetically checked up on me. I receive a text from him an hour after I'm home.

Niall: what are you doing?

Lillie: nothing, at home boredddd....when are you done with work?

Niall: hopefully soon princess, where's Becca just do something with her

Lillie: yeah if she was here I would....

Niall: Lillie...

Lillie: don't freak, I'm okay, really :)

Niall: lock your doors at least so I'll feel better, ok?

Lillie: doing it now :)

I get up and start to make my way to the front door. I freeze though. The door is wide open. I was sure I closed it. That's when I hear moving from the couch. Greg. Greg sits there on my couch and seems pleased when I notice him. "Hello again." He smiles. I clench my jaw and slam my front door shut. I wasn't afraid of this prick. "What are you doing in my flat?" I growl at him. He chuckles. "Thought I'd come by and say hi. I know Niall's at work." "Yeah and I'm pretty sure he wouldn't want you here, didn't he make that clear last time!" "Oh yes he did, but that's what makes this the more fun." He smirks and flips on my tv. "You should really lock your doors love, it's not safe." He winks Nd makes himself comfortable. "What do you want Greg!" I spit now getting very angry. He thinks for a minute. "Well I suppose nothing from you right now...I just love to test you baby." He stands up and lurks closer to me. I take a huge step back and glare at him. "Niall will kill you if you lay a hand on me." I say now all the way backed up into the kitchen. Greg pretends to be hurt and shocked. "You think I'm going to hurt you?" He steps closer and closer. "Even if I did, you wouldn't tell him." I can't backup anymore and he's with in arms reach. His face turns into a glare. "Your not going to tell him I was here. Right?" I can feel his breath on me he's so close. "And if I do?" I spit testing him. I was scared now, but I wasn't about to tell him know it. His face hardens and he's now pinning me against the wall. "Because it wouldn't be to good for your or Niall health." He whispers roughly in my ear. I stand perfectly still until he threatens Niall. Threaten me, not him. Ever. "You wouldn't dare hurt him!" I yell in his face. He chuckles and suddenly I feel A sting across my face. He had slapped me. Hard. I look back at him in horror and he just chuckles again. "Oh I would baby doll. And if you tell him about our little visit. This," he strokes my cheek "won't be the even be the worst of it." He kisses my cheek then leaves. I'm to shocked to do anything. My heart was beating was so fast I thought I was going to pass out. I soon as I know he's gone, I jump up and race to the door. I slam it shut and lock it. Niall couldn't know. He wouldn't know. He would kill Greg and go to jail or Greg would hurt him. I wasn't gong to risk either one. I look to my phone and I see Niall has blown it up.

Niall: did you lock it? Lillie? Lillie?! Did you lock your damn door?! Answer me

I picked it up and answered him with shaky hands. I really needed to calm down,

Lillie: I'm fine, sorry got detracted. It's locked. :)

Niall: okay, thank you, get some sleep baby

Lillie: ok, hopefully see you soon

Niall: you will ;) night princess

Lillie: night Ni xx

And with that I crawl into my bed, wishing Niall was hear to hold me.

I wake up to the most beautifulest sound. Birds chirping. I loved waking up that way. I start to stretch when I suddenly feel arms tighten around me. I yelp and jump out of bed. Niall jolts up as well and looks at me confused. I calm down a bit. I thought it was Greg. "Jesus Niall you scared me!" I say climbing back into bed. He chuckles and pulls me into his lap. "Sorry babe. Got here late and you were already sleeping." "How did you get in?" "Spare key." I looked at him confused. I didn't give him my spare. "I got one made." He says trying to look innocent. I roll my eyes at him and snuggle deeper into his chest. "Glad your back." "Me too." He kisses the top of my head takes a deep breath. "Hey why don't we go out tonight?" "What did you have in mind?" I say smiling now. "We'll go rock climbing!" I sit up and look at him shocked. "Rock climbing eh?" "Yeah, you want to right?" "Of course!" He smiles wide. "Well good. Go get ready and we'll go." I jump up and hop into a hit shower. I actually loved going rock climbing. Me and my mom use to do it all the time. When I'm ready we set off. When we get there I couldn't be more excited. I hadn't been here in such a long time. Once we're set up and everything we begin o try and concur the giant wall. I was doing great, Niall on the other hand was falling behind. It made me giggle once I was at the top and he was panting by the time he finally joined me. "Damn you've got some legs." He said sweating a bit. I laugh and kiss him. "How does it feel to be beaten by a girl?" I whisper. He chuckles. "I let you win." He winks. I laugh at this. "Whatever gets you threw the day Horan." He start to make my way back down as Niall follows. After rock climbing we grab a bit to eat. Niall's phone rings though and he's called into work. He feels awful but I try and convince him it's fine. Even though it wasn't. I was scared that when he left I would be getting payed a visit from Greg. Fortunately, I didn't.

It's been a couple of days since Niall and I's date. I've seen him since then but it would also get cut short with him and his work. He got so angry to when I asked him questions about it to. Greg hadn't been to visit me in a bit. Yet anyways. "Lillie, I feel awful from the last couple of days. I have work off though this week!" Niall says one day while we watched tv. I face lights up and I smile. "It's okay Niall, work is work. And I'm glad I get you all this week!" He smiles. "Okay, why don't we go clubbing? I could really use a nice sexy girl grinding on me." He winks. "Never pinned you as the cheating type Ni." I say cheeky. He playfully swats me. "Just kidding," I giggle. "I think The club could be fun, as long as another Alex doesn't show...." Niall tenses and holds my hand a bit tighter, "It won't." He speaks In a deep voice. I kiss him and cuddle into him closer, "Then I can't wait!" This could be good. Niall and I just letting loose for a night. Beside I think Niall has changed a bit. Before he was so violent but now I think he's softened. Which is good for something's, like if a guy even looks at me at the club maybe Niall won't react to much. Maybe he has changed. But I would soon find out how wrong I really was.....
