Harry & Niall #1

You're about ready to go meet up with your boyfriend, Harry, for a date at the ice cream parlor when suddenly, your cell phone rings. You groan, pulling your phone out of your pocket, not bothering to check the Caller ID before you answer.

"Hello?" You answer the call, sounding annoyed.

"Hey Sandra!" Niall's chipper voice answers.

"Hey Ni," your annoyance is replaced with a smile. You could never be annoyed at your best friend for long.

"Hey, I was wondering if you wanted to hang out today?" Niall asks. Your smile is quickly wiped away and you frown. You hated letting Niall down, but you already had plans!

"Sorry Ni, but I'm going out with-"

"With Harry right?" You can suddenly detect the annoyance in Niall's voice. "Yeah, fine. I get it."

"Niall, Harry and I are dating and-"you're cut off again.

"No, just forget I ever said anything. Have fun with your 'boyfriend.'" Niall suddenly hangs up and you're left with his mocking tone echoing itself in your head. You sigh and put your cellphone in your pocket. You were no longer in the mood for going out, but you didn't want to cancel on Harry when he was already probably at the ice cream parlor.

Making sure you have everything, you leave your home and walk the short trip downtown. As you walk to the parlor, you're surprised to see Niall running towards you.

"Niall? What are you doing here?" You ask, instantly both confused and concerned. You didn't like the way he was looking at you with sad, angry eyes.

"Sandra, you don't want to go in there. Trust me-"this time, you're the one who cuts Niall off.

"Seriously Niall? Are you trying to prevent my dates now? C'mon," you laugh bitterly and push past him, walking straight into Sunday's Sundaes.

And stop dead in your tracks, a cry exiting your lips.

You see Harry seated at a booth...but he's not alone. He's snogging another girl, right in front of you.

You cry out again and this time, Harry and the girl hear you and Harry looks up at you in shock. He opens his mouth to say something, but you run out of the building before he gets the chance.

"Sandra!" This time it's not Harry who tries to call you, it's Niall. However, you don't stop. You run straight past him.

He runs after you.

"Sandra, wait!" Niall shouts. You keep running, but eventually come to a stop. You're out of breath, gasping desperately, and can't run any further.

"Sandra, are...are you okay?" Niall gently asks, stopping beside you. He wraps his arm around your shoulders as you cry.

"A-Am I not good enough for him?" You cry into Niall's shoulder. "M-Maybe I need to ch-change...there's o-obviously something he d-didn't l-like-"

"Stop," Niall suddenly places a finger at your lips. "Stop that."

"S-Stop what?" You whimper.

"Look around Sandy," Niall uses his old nickname for you from when the two of you were kids, "do you see Harry anywhere?"

"N-No..."

"Exactly. Obviously, he's too stupid to realize just how much you're worth. But I'm here. I'm right here, Sandra. And I..." He cuts himself off.

"You what, Niall?" You ask, looking up at him.

"I...I love you, Sandy."

Before you can respond, you find Niall's lips on yours. You gasp, but kiss back, finding that you love the feeling of Niall kissing you. All too soon, the two of you pull away.

"Niall..." You look up at him again, touching your lips softly after that kiss.

"I...I love you too."
