I Will Always Love You - A Niall Horan Love Story

Chapter Fifty Eight

Stacey and I sat down for a bit as I watched Niall have the time of his life dancing. Louis, Zayn and Eleanor were dancing with him and they looked like they were having the best time as well. Liam was probably with Danielle making out somewhere and Harry was probably eating from the chocolate fountain.

Silly, silly boy.

Josh came over and asked me to come dance with him and I didn't want to be rude, so I said yes and followed him to the dance floor. Stacey said it was ok and she needed a break anyway.

"Are you having a good time?" Josh asks as we start dancing.

I nod. "What about you?"

"Best night ever!" is his reply. "You look beautiful tonight."

"Thanks, you don't look too bad yourself," I wink.

Suddenly, Josh grabs my waist and pulls me closer to him.

"Josh, what are you doing?" I ask, worried.

"Just watch," he says, leaning in.

I really should move back, but I can't. His hands are placed firmly on my waist.

His lips meet mine and I should really pull back and stop it, but he tastes so good. There was no spark, but he tasted amazing.

Finally, I pulled away. "Um," I get a knot in my throat. "Excuse me."

He lets me go and I go get another drink.

What did I just do?

'Niall's going to hate you,' a voice played in my head.

He is? No, I'm sure he'll understand. It's Niall, for crying out loud! He is the sweetest thing on earth, he'll understand.

Where is Niall, anyway?

I didn't see him dancing anymore.

I chugged down the glass of vodka and red bull and walked back to Stacey, suddenly feeling a little dizzy.

"Have you seen Niall?" I shout over the music and look down to her.

She looks up at me and shakes her head. "Have you seen Harry?"

"No. You go look for Harry and I'll look for Niall."

She nods and we walk off in different directions.

I look everywhere inside -- the bathroom, lounge room, kitchen and bedrooms (which I saw some things I didn't want to see) -but don't see him anywhere, so I go to the front yard.

He isn't anywhere on the porch or the beach, so I go through the house again, and out to the backyard.

What I see is worse than what I saw in the bedrooms.

There, in a corner, was Niall pushed up against some brunette, sucking each others' faces.

I thought I had suffered my pain for a lifetime, but obviously I must have done something really bad when I was little to deserve this.

I must have made a noise, because they break apart and Niall turns to me, smirking, "Payback's a bitch, isn't it?"

That hurt the worst. He meant to hurt me. 

I turn around, already crying, and head for the back door to go inside. On my way in, Liam and Danielle walk passed me and they see me crying.

They look worried for a second, before they glance behind me, and they must have seen Niall because Danielle shoots me an apologetic look while Liam gets pissed and storms passed me towards Niall.

I run through the house, bumping into people along the way. When I get to the front porch, I sit down and take my shoes off before running off the porch and onto the soft sand.

I didn't stop running until I got to the middle of a forest that seemed to sit right behind the beach. I could faintly hear the music, and there was no one out here, so I lay down, curled into a ball, and wept.

He hurt me on purpose.

What did I do?

I thought he loved me.

Obviously not.
