Rescue Me (Niall Horan) (UNDER EDITING)

Chapter 31: Dear Diary

Tara’s P.O.V

I can’t believe it. It didn’t even take that much effort to get Liam to realise I’m the good guy. Hell I didn’t even know it was him that was holding me until I stopped. To say I was shocked would be an understatement.

The moment Liam left I walked over to my suitcase and fished out my diary that I hadn’t written in since I was arrested.

Flipping through it brought me some good, but also bad, memories. The first one I found was from Ryan and I’s first date. I was such a happy person then, he just completed me.

But as I flipped through the entrees I saw how my perspective changed. I was convinced that everything was my fault, when clearly it was his. Understanding what I went through is complicated because there was no clear-cut answer in my mind.

Half the time I was just confused.

All the time I was broken.

But life moves on. I flipped to my most recent entry which was the night before I was arrested. I talked about how much Niall has healed and how excited I was that he would finally be able to speak soon.

I also wrote about my fears that he would leave me when he got better. My fear was that he would forget about me, and leave me with Ryan. In the time I had known Zayn and Niall, I learned more about myself.

Somehow, just by being with me, Niall slowly built confidence in me that I never knew existed.

I opened to a clear page and clicked my pen, preparing to write;

Dear Diary,

 

I haven’t written in you in a while huh? Well I guess it’s time to update you on what has been happening. Just after my last entry I was arrest. Yup I was arrested. Honestly I was so scared, Zayn even turned on me.

 

Ryan had went to the lads, I don’t even know how he knew where they were… But he managed to convince him I kidnapped Niall and was holding him hostage! Ridiculous right?

 

Niall did his best to try and tell people I was innocent, but he couldn’t talk or get his hands on some pen and paper. They told me he was freaking out afterwards. He managed to break into the courtroom and tell them to drop the charges.

 

He found his voice because I was in peril.

 

A bit of time has passed since then. At first Louis was the only one, besides Niall, who believed me. Ryan hospitalised him because Louis posed a threat of exposing him. We were all upset, but the other three lads hated me.

 

So far I have been able to persuade two of them, and not on purpose. They walked in on the wrong time. The first was Zayn, just before I was about to jump off the balcony. Earlier that evening Harry had confronted me with some hurtful words that I don’t want to repeat, even to you.
