In this Moment

Chapter Twenty-Two

****Rachel's POV**** 

~Dream~ 

"So he is treating you well is he." Jake asked sitting down faced away from my standing body.  

"Yes don't you see that! Why can't you just let us be?! Let me be!" I screamed, having been feed up with this whole thing.  

"We'll since I enjoy paining you and I can't touch Niall, and your guardian angels are a little busy, thanks to my doing, the answer is no." He said still facing the opposite direction, but I could still tell that he wore a smug grin.  

"Nice necklace by the way." He said not even looking at me. 

I looked down and saw that I was wearing the necklace that Niall had given me. I lightly grasped it and looked worryingly at Jake. "Leave it alone."  

"Don't worry your sweet little head about that. I just noticed that it wasn't the necklace I had given you." He said referring to the diamond heart necklace he had given to me on our one year anniversary.  

"Of course I'm not wearing it." I said, and then immediately regretting it.  

He stood up and turned around looking at me with devil eyes, he walked quickly towards me as I took backwards steps away from him. He reached and grabbed my shoulders and pushed his face to mine. 

He kissed me but I didn't kiss back. When I was finally able to get him off of me I stepped back as far as I could until my back met a wall. 

"Why wouldn't you leave me alone! What can I do for you to stop!? For you to leave me alone!?......TELL ME!" I screamed as I let tears stream down my face. I wanted the pain to end so badly.  

He came closer and whispered "Leave him."  

"What" I asked, hoping what he was saying wasn't the same as what I was thinking it was.  

"Leave Niall Horan." Were the last words he whispered.  

I fell into shock and silence, a million thoughts were racing through my mind as the tears continued to roll down my face. The scene faded black and as light started to show again I was greeted by three voices.  

~End Of Dream~ 

"Rachel!" A familiar voice said as another shook me. I slowly opened my eyes to find three worried faces near mine.  

"What?" I asked sleepily as I tried to push Denayah, Harry, and Louis out of my face. 

"Rach are you okay?" Denayah asked while stepping back and sitting on the end of the couch I was laying on.  

"Yeah why?" I asked confused.  

Harry sat down on the arm of the couch while Louis to a seat in the armchair. "Well we walked in after knocking for like forever." Denayah started. 

"And you were screaming." Harry finished.  

"Oh yeah I'm fine, just a uh nightmare." I said trying to brush it off. 

"Maybe she was dreaming about the secret mission she had, after all she is a secret agent." Louis suggested. 

"Lou, you always know what's on my mind. How do you do it?" I said sarcastically.  

"Comes with the Tommo powers." He chuckled. We all laughed for a bit until I realized what had just happened in my dream. I needed to make a decision, but I needed help.  

"Denayah can I talk to you upstairs?" I asked leaning over and whispering in her ear. She noded and we went up to mine and Niall's room. I closed the door behind us as she sat on the bed. I turned to face her and let out a breath, "I need to tell you something." 

~~**~*~*~~* 

A few days had pasted since the last time I had saw Denayah, and during that time I had talked to her about my problem. I told her about my nightmares and my love for Niall, everything. She was shocked about it at first but then immediately tried her best to help me. 

I couldn't make this decision without the right input, and just like any other bestfriend she told me to follow my heart. But it was kind of hard to hear my heart over my head at times.  

Me and Niall were laying in bed, my hand lay on his bare chest and my head fit perfectly in the crook of his neck. We sat there enjoying each others company, he grabbed my hand and entertwind our fingers.  

"I love you." He spoke softly, in his husky Irish accent that made my knees weak.  

"I love you too." I spoke at the same volume, barring my head deeper into his neck.  

"You know I would do anything for you? Right? You are so special Rach." He spoke softly, making my heart break a little more.  

"So I've been told." I replied. 

"Well, you are special that way too, haha, but you're really special to me." He finished starring down into my brown eyes, with mine trained on his lips. 

We shared passionate kiss, a kiss that felt really. A kiss that made me feel like there wasn't a care in the world. The perfect kiss. I could never get enough of him or his taste, that's what I feared but also enjoyed.  

"I love you Rachel, so much." He said laying his head against mine.  

"I love you too Niall." I said closing my eyes and having another routine shortened sleep take over me.
