~Claire~

I ran into my room and quickly dashed on some makeup. William was taking me out to a fair. I slipped on some toms and ran outside.

I stepped onto the sidewalk as William took my hand in his. We walked for a long time, and eventually showed up at a carnival.

He yanked my hand and pulled my onto the ferris wheel.

"Typical you Will." I laughed rolling my eyes at his cheeky smile. We got on and I couldn't help but shiver. It was late and all I had on was a blue t shirt and shorts. He had on a red sweatshirt and jeans, so he wasn't cold at all.

He noticed me shivering and picked up my legs and threw them over his.

"Here." he said putting an arm around me. The way he positioned me I was warm and comfortable. I rested my head on his chest while he kissed my forehead. Suddenly we stopped.

At the top.

He placed his hand under my chin and pulled my lips onto his. We kissed for a long time, and it was perfectly romantic. He took my breath away. He pulled away and pulled my into a tight hug. Why was he being so.... I don't know... Like this.

We got off and I couldn't wipe the smile off my face. That is until this annoying kid Seth and his friends walked up and smirked.

"This you claire?" he asked showing my a picture of me and will kissing on the ferris wheel.

"Umm I-I-I" I stuttered nervously. I wasnt one for attention. They all laughed and I ran behind the school. I sprinted and then collapsed on the ground. William ran after me and sat beside me.

"Claire... I need to say something." he said sadly. I looked up.

"What."

"Before I moved here and all, there was this girl. Brinley. And we dated for a while. We broke up because I had to leave for high school, and she was a year younger than me. Claire you are so beautiful and amazing and perfect, but I can't get her off my mind. I'm so sorry, but I can't do this anymore." he sighed.

I let a tear stream down my face. I wasn't as sad as I thought I would be. Why is that?

"It's fine." I smiles wiping away the tear.

We stayed there for a while staring at the stars.

"This Brinley.... Did you love her?" I asked.

"I didn't believe in love until I met her. But we can't date.. We can never see each other." he sighed sadly.

"But you still love her?" I asked.

"Of course! I mean no! It's complicated." he sighed.

"She's your first love." I smiled.

"You will always love her no matter what." I said looking at him.

"Who was your first love?" he asked

"That is a lad by the name of Niall Horan." I sighed. He stood up and pulled me up.

"Let's go."

We strolled back onto the fair grounds hand in hand, as friends. Nothing more nothing less.

"Hey!" I heard a threatening , yet familiar voice yell. I turned around and saw none other than Niall Horan.

"What are you doing holding hands with my girl?"
