My Picture Caught His Eye [A Niall Horan Fan Fiction]

Chapter 18

*Niall's POV*

This flight seemed alot longer than it actually was. I never missed anybody like I missed Emilie before, and I only left her a few hours ago. I couldn't even imagine how it was going to be to spend months without seeing her flawless face. This would awfully be long. I just hoped her parents would let her come on tour with me... Besides, the kids at school would've probably used her now that they all knew she was my girlfriend. I wouldn't want that to happen, it was hard enough to be famous, I didn't want my girlfriend to feel the way I did sometimes.

*Emilie's POV* 

It was 2am and I still could not sleep. Niall left today, so I was back home, but I missed him deeply. I got in a huge argument with my parents earlier because they wouldn't understand how it would be at school now that everyone knows I'm with Niall. I didn't look forward to the next day. Twitter was already a mess, I gained thousands and thousands of new followers and my phone was nearly exploding from the tweets I was getting and I had desactivate Facebook because Directioners were adding me on there too. At least, I didn't get too many hate, well from what I had seen, it didn't seem like the fans were hating me. In fact, they looked pretty happy that Niall finally found someone to love. I was about to turn off my phone when I got a text message.

''Hello baby, I just arrived home. You have no idea how much I miss you already! I'll call you tomorrow, alright? Have a nice day at school, beautiful.

-the next morning- 

Waking up was hard. Getting out of bed was even worse. My body didn't feel like moving, it wanted to stay in bed. When I finally got up, I was already late. ''It doesn't matter'' I told myself, at least I wouldn't have to face everyone and I wouldn't have to answer all their questions. I decided to wear this cute outfit Niall got me. I quickly ate breakfast, prepared myself a little and finally head off to school. It was raining this morning, so I decided to take the city bus, because I had missed the school one. When I arrived to class, everyone stared at me. They fixed me as if they saw a ghost. I sat down at my desk quietly and the teacher continued to teach. I wasn't paying attention to what the teacher was saying, I only had one thing on my mind. And that thing was Niall. I was drawing little hearts in my agenda, when the girl sitting in front of me, her name was Emma, asked if I wanted to work on the new project with her. She was a Directioner, so by the way she looked at me, I knew that she knew, but she was also very nice. I knew she didn't only want to work with me because of Niall. I had teamworked with her before and we made a god team. She turned her chair and sat down at my desk. ''Emilie... I know about you know what...'' She said, ''but you're still normal Emilie to me, I won't treat you differently because of Niall. Don't worry about it. I know it might be a little difficult for you right now.. But even though we're not really close friends, I'm going to be here for you if you need it. I promise. '' I couldn't believe my ears. Emma was actually the first person to tell me this. All my best friends cared about was the boys, it wasn't how I was feeling toward all this. Truthfully, it felt like they only cared about the fame. I was having a hard time dealing with the new popularity, I guessed i just needed time to adjust to my new life, but Emma's words really cheered me up. The bell rang, the class was over. Emma and I went down to stairs together, I didn't want to face everyone alone so she agreed to stay with me. Everyone stared at me and were whispering with eachother. They were talking about me. I just knew it. I didn't like it. All the attention on me like that. It was okay when I was with Niall. I felt in security, because he was close to me, but now that I'm alone, all by myself, it's a complete different feeling. All the eyes fixed on me. No. I didn't like that.    

Emma and I went walking outside. She and I used to be kind of close friends when we were little, but High School brought us appart. It felt nice to talk to her again, even though we weren't close anymore. Emma knew me good enough to know that I didn't like everyone's eyes fixed one me. she didn't ask too many questions about Niall, and I liked that about her. She always respected other's private life. We were walking and talking as suddenly my phone starting to ring. It was Niall. Emma saw his name on my phone screen. I knew because her face redden. ''Do you want to say anything to him ?'' I asked her before answering. The answer was obvious. 

''Hello Niall. How are you ?''

''Oh, I'm good. how about you beautiful ?'' 

''I'm good too! hey, I got an old friend here with me, and she'd like to say a word to you, is that okay?'' 

He happily agreed so I handed my phone to Emma, she was still shocked but she somehow managed to say something. 

''Hello Niall'' she said shyly. ''My name is Emma. I just wanted to tell you that, despite my dedication to your band, I wish you the best with Emilie. She's a really great girl, and I hope you'll take good care of her! The kids here are putting a lot of pressure on her. It's awful, but I know that you two will last for long.''

Se handed me my phone back and said: ''Thanks for making my dream come true''.
