Chapter 27

~Chapter 27~

--Niall's POV--

I woke up the next morning. I went into the kitchen, and made myself some coffee. Then Harry walked in. He looked terrible.

"Yo dude, what's up with your eyes?"

"They're red okay?! I was crying and I'm not in the best mood."

"I'm sorry."

"Why are you sorry? You didn't do anything."

"Harry stop."

"I leaving to go see Gemma."

"Alright. I hope she can help."

"Help?! What am I a child?!"

"No..."

"Bye."

"Bye?"

Harry left. I slowly sipped my coffee. Then Harry's mum walked in. This is awkward. It's going to be weird being here with her mum. It's going to be uncomfortable. Maybe I should leave or..

"Good Morning.", she cooed

"Morning."

"Where's Harry?"

"He left to go see Gemma."

"Oh yah. That I'll be good for him. Seeing her."

"Yah. Well I better go call Gem."

"Alright."

I paced out of the kitchen and into my room. I closed the door, and pulled out my phone. The I dialed Gem's number.

"Hey babe."

"Hey Ni. What's up?"

"Well I'm alone with Harry's mum."

"That's a first." I laughed.

"I miss you so much."

"I miss you too. Why don't you come over to Lou's and Kate's?"

"I would, but I have things to do."

"Alright.Love you."

"Love you more."

"Love you most."

"Bye."

"Bye." I waited for her to hang up. Why do I feel like I'll never see her again? Why does it feel like she is so far away? Is this what love does? If so, then I never want to be away from Gem ever again. I plopped myself on the bed. I stared blankly at the ceiling. Then I got changed out of my pajamas. I left the room.

"May I use your car, Anne?"

"Sure."

"Thank you. And do you need anything from the store or such?"

"Yes, thank you for asking. I need milk, apple juice, bread, and rice."

"Alright."

I got her keys and started her car that was parked in the driveway. I backed out and started to drive. I drove down to the market and picked up what we needed. Then I drove to the park. I needed to relax. I sat on a park bench reading a book. I reared myself to the playground. I watched as little boys and girls played. Running, laughing, enjoying themselves. Then I watched as one little girl ran towards her mum and dad. A bright smile on her face. When she reached them. They hugged and kissed her. The family stared to walk away. With the little girl it her daddy's arms and her mum walking beside with her arm wrapped around the dad. I know everyone wants that. Every family wants that. I want that. I want that with Gem. I moved back to my book and continued reading. After getting bored reading at the park, I got back in the car. I didn't concentrate on what I was doing. I was driving. In circles? All I could think about was Gem. I have to propose to her. Where? When? How? I thought about it. I have to make it special I have to make it unique. I drove back to Harry's. I walked through the door to find Harry sitting
on a stool looking straight at me. He looked guilty and ill. Does he really feel that bad?
