Walihya is still sitting on my bed from the when I left to take a shower. She has been freaking out ever since she told me about Niall. I honestly don't blame her, I'm freaking out myself, but Zayn will probably be pissed off if he finds out that Walihya told me. Why didn't they tell me that Niall and I were dating? That explains why Niall is always so distraught when I'm around.

I analyze Walihya on my bed, her fingers constantly moving in her lap as her eyes dart up to me and back down again. "Look, I know you're nervous about Zayn finding out, but if they can keep a secret, so can we." I fold one leg underneath me when I sit down next to her.

Walihya's eyes widen at my words. "You know I'm a terrible liar." She stills her fingers.

"I'm not asking you to lie." I bring my other leg up on the bed. "No one is going to straight up ask you if you told me about Niall. They probably won't even bring it up. I just need you to not tell anyone that you told me. Can you do that?"

"What are you going to do?" Walihya stares at me, knowing I'm planning something.

"If Niall and I are really dating then maybe if I allow myself to get closer to him then I'll get my memory back." I breathe out.

"But, you have a hard time trusting anyone. At least, you did."

Frowning, I tilt my head up to stare at my younger sister. "What do you mean? I don't trust anyone ever since.." I trail off.

A smile makes it's way across Walihya's lips. "No, you trust a lot of people now. The boys, mostly Niall, has taught you how to trust again. They've helped you with a lot."

"What do you know about our relationship?" I change the subject, not completely understanding how they have helped me trust again.

"For your first date, he took you to Epcot. Zayn said that when he saw the two of you together, Niall would always look at you like you were the only girl in the world. He said that it was obvious that the two of you loved each other. You had a run in with Katie and Glen, you ran out crying into the parking lot when it was pouring down rain, and the only person to calm you down was Niall." Walihya tells me, a faint dreamy smile on her face. "I want a boyfriend like that."

"Maybe I should kiss him." I whisper to myself.

"What?!" Walihya jumps up from my bed, abruptly. I tense up at her sudden outburst. What is wrong with her? "You can't do that!"

"Why not?" I stare up at her in confusion. "If I do this then maybe I'll gain my memory back. Maybe Niall is the missing puzzle piece in my brain. I need him to get everything back."

"No!" She nearly shouts at me. "You can't do that to him! What if you kiss him and you don't remember? That will kill him. Don't you see how much Niall loves you? He has already lost you once, you can't do it to him again."

My shoulders slump as I realize that she is right. I can see how much Niall is hurting when he is around me. If I kiss him, and don't get my memory back, I'll just hurt him even more. I can't do that to him. I feel my heart break just when I see his red, puffy eyes from when he was crying.

"Then what do I do?" I fall back on my bed.

"Knock, knock." Someone says from my doorway. I lift my head up, my chin touching my chest. Louis is leaning up against the door, watching the two of us. "Is everything okay?"

Walihya's head darts in my direction, a pleading look etched on her face. She wants me to lie to him. I'm not the best liar either. Maybe this whole acting like I don't know about Niall and I are dating.

"I told Natalie that she is dating Niall!" Walihya blurts before covering her mouth with both of her hands. Her eyes turn as big as saucers as she realises what she just did. "Oh my gosh! I'm so sorry!" She mumbles into her hand.
