My Best Friend

(2)

// Again Rain's outfit is on the right (the one for the walk), enjoy. X //

I am woken up by an arm wrapping round my waist. I am lying in my bed on my side and someone has their hand round me cuddling me close. I'm sure I came home alone last night, Niall didn't come home with me after our argument so who was this.

I turn my head slightly to see blonde hair coming from a head that is buried in my neck. When I look close I can see the brown roots and the boy now lifts his head to look at me.

"Rain I'm so sorry I had way to much to drink last night I don't even know what I was thinking. Of course I believe you I should have been angry at Daryl not you and Ashton. I don't know why I was acting like that. Please Rain I'm really sorry." He looks desperate. How can I resist those puppy eyes?

"It's okay" I say turning over and resting my head in his chest. I give out a sigh of relief, happy that he's realised what he's done and apologised and now it's over.

"Do you think I'm a dick?" He asks me quietly as if he's dreading the answer.

"No you just have a bad side to you when your drunk that I don't like" I say truthfully.

"I know I'm sorry I wish I could change that but I can't"

"I know"

We both drift off for a while, still very tired after not getting much sleep. When I wake up I check my phone and it's 2pm. We slept through lunch? Oh no I can't believe this. Niall starts to wake up after hearing me move around a lot.

"What time is it?" He asks sleepily.

"It's 2 o'clock Niall we missed lunch" I tell him knowing what his response will be. He bolted upright staring at me.

"Are you serious?" He asks me.

"Yeah"

"To the kitchen" he jumps up and heads out the door. I follow lazily behind him. The boy loves his food just as much as I do. By the time I stroll into the kitchen Niall already had the bread out and has started to prepare the fillings for sandwiches. I laugh at him taking a seat at my kitchen table waiting to be served. We have this rule that of we're at my house, he makes food and if we're at his, I make food. It's an unspoken rule but it always happens unless one of us is ill then then the other makes the food no matter where we are.

He serves me a chicken sandwich with cheese and salad and puts a large bag of Doritos in the middle of the table for us to share. He puts a can of cherry coke next to my plate and takes his seat where he has put his food. I love our little meals together.

We eat in silence but it's a comfortable silence rather than an awkward one. Once we have swallowed out last mouthfuls Niall picks up both our plates and put them in my dishwasher.

"Fancy watching a movie" he asks me and I nod before racing him to my room. We can be really childish at times. He looks through the selection I have before picking out titanic.

"I'm going to get some popcorn" he says jumping to his feet and skipping downstairs. He has just had lunch he can't possibly be hungry. But then again, I won't be turning it down. I put the disc into my tv and skip through the adverts. By the time he returns with a large bowl it's ready to play. We both lie down on my bed and I press play on the remote, turn the volume up slightly and throw it to the floor. I take a large handful of popcorn and the movie begins.

Jack has just gone down in the water and I am sobbing on Niall's shoulder and he also has tears in his eyes. This movie is just so sad I don't understand how anyone can watch it without crying. By half way through we had demolished all the popcorn and I'm looking sadly into the bowl. I cuddle into Niall some more burying my head in his neck.

"Why does Jack die? Why cant there be a happy ending? Did they make this movie just to make people cry" I cry. I get very emotional especially as its Leonardo DiCaprio.

"You know I think they did. But these characters aren't real" he say laughing at me.

"I know that" I say playfully punching his chest.

"Aw you two are so cute" I get the shock if my life when my mum appears in the doorway. How long has she been there? "I don't know why you aren't a couple, you may as well be they way you act!"

"Muuummmm" I groan.

"I'm just saying" she says and walks away grinning to herself. Seriously she does make some annoying comments. Niall is basically my brother of course were not going to get together. Honestly. People these days.

"Fancy going for a walk?" Niall asks me.

"Yeah but I need to get changed first" I tell him picking up some jeans and a top and walking into my bathroom.

By the time I am changed and have put my hair up, Niall has also improved his looks so he didn't still look like he had just got out of bed. Picking up my phone and keys we walk out saying a quick goodbye to my mum.

We head for the route we always take, it takes you along a path into a forest area and at the end there is an open field which we usually sit in for a while.

When we are walking Niall starts to talk "so what's been going on in your head lately? Anything interesting happened recently?"

"Nothing you don't know about" I tell him wondering why he asked that. "What about you?"

"Nothing much, well actually at the party last night, before what happened, I was talking to this girl and I got her number. But I don't know if I should call or not." He says fiddling with his fingers.

"Why not?" I ask. "What was she like?"

"We'll she was nice but when we were talking it seemed like she had gotten round a lot and I don't really fancy being cheated on" he says sadly. He has been cheated in once before and it broke his little heart and I wasn't going I let that happen again.

"Niall if she's a slut don't bother because she will probably be talking to 5 other guys as well" I tell him straight. Some girls can be like that and he isn't going to end up with one of them on my watch.

"That's what I was thinking" he said perking up a little. "So you don't have your eye on anyone?" He asks

"No not really" I say truthfully. Nobody in particular comes to mind, I suppose I have thought about Ashton but that's only because I found out he loves me. I don't have a crush on him or anything.

When we reach the field we lie under the sun for a while just listening to music and relaxing. Days like this were my favourite. You just get lost in your thoughts and nothing matters too much.

I can hear footsteps come towards me and then a male voice talks.

"Hey beautiful" a boy who looked around my age was stood over me smiling. He looked quite hot but also very cocky.

"Hey" I say bluntly having no interest in this boy.

"Someone's grumpy, so is this your boyfriend is it?" He asks pointing at Niall who had now come to my side.

"No" I say.

"Great so you're available. How about a date. Next Saturday." He says coming closer to me.

"No thanks" I say and get up to walk away but the boy grabs my waist. "Get off" I shout struggling to escape his grip.

"What the fuck is wrong with you?" Niall shouts now standing up at my side.

"Nothing, little girls like this just need to know who is in charge. If a man wants to have sex with a girl, he will" he says right into my ear.

"You're a fucking psycho" Niall shouts and I see him swing for the boys face. Suddenly he lets go of me and I'm guessing Niall hit him because he is groaning loudly.

"Let's go" Niall says grabbing my hand and starting to run.

What the fuck is wrong with people these days?
