Chapter 7- Hung Up On You,
Ari's POV,
My head pounded, and my eye lids were heavy. I couldn't pick them up. I tried over and over again. I knew Niall was coming at some point, and it would be nice if I knew what time it was.
"Aria- What are you still doing in bed?" The familiar laugh rang around the room. I tried once again to open my eyes, and it worked. I stared into the recognizable blue eyes for a few moments before pulling the duvet back over my head. "Get outta bed, lazy ass!" He said while coming over, and lifting up the duvet, tickling me. "Stop!" I squealed, getting away from him.
I was still in my clothes from last night, and my makeup had came off a little in my sleep. My hair stayed the same for the most part. "Headache?" He asked as I suddenly put my hand on my head from the sharp pain. I nodded, and he went out of the room. I rolled my eyes, heading to the door. I was about to walk out before he came back in with the advil from the bathroom, and some water.
"Thanks." I mumbled before sitting on the bed and downing the pills. He sat next to me. "I told you not to drink." He remarked and I gently slapped him in the arm, and he smirked as he looked down to his hands. "How much do you exactly remember from last night?" He asked quietly. I put my head in my hands, trying to remember the bits and pieces of last night. It was like keeping water in your hands, details keep trickling away.
"Seeing you, after you told me to stop drinking. Me dancing with James, Teagan puking in the trash bin... And you telling me we had lessons today..." I trailed trying to remember anything else. "That's pretty much it." I said after a minute of thinking. He seemed to tense. "Is something wrong? Did I do something and don't remember it?" I asked, he shook his head.
"You don't remember me telling you I had to tell you something important do you?" He asked, my eyes brows furrowed. I shook my head 'no' and he faced me.
"I took your advice... I'm leaving... I'm going on the X-Factor." I cupped my hand over my mouth. Tears started to form in my eyes. But of joy this time. I hugged him, "I knew you would." I muffled into his jumper. He laughed, "But... That's not all." He said, we backed away and he smiled one of the biggest smiles I think I've ever seen, "You're coming with me." I gave him a questioning look. "What?" I asked, he laughed once again. "You're not auditioning, you're coming with me and my family. Here's the best part... No Holly." I smiled and jumped up and down, as he gave me a big bear hug.
These were the times I missed. Me and him just acting like friends. No Holly, and no burden between me liking him. "You'll do great!" I said, and he nodded. "So celebration?" He asked, I nodded, "To Nandos!" I declared before heading towards the door. "Ari?" He asked, I turned around "Yes?" I asked, he gestured to my body. Shit, I forgot I was still wearing this. "Oh ya..." I'll take a shower... To Nandos!... In 30 minutes!" I declared once again, he laughed before walking out the door.
"Oh, and... Thanks for never doubting me..." He said before walking back, and planting a kiss on my cheek. He walked away once again. Once he was gone, I touched the place he had kissed. My cheeks burned, as I headed to the shower.

"No... Just no." I said as I answered Niall's earlier question. He smirked as he raised his eye brow. "Ari has a crush!" He sang and I smacked his arm, "Shut up!" I laughed as he smiled. He was referring to James instead of himself. We already ate, and we were walking back to my house.
"So when do yo- I mean, we, leave?" I asked, fumbling with my top. "A week." He replied. I nodded. "I just really can't believe that you are doing this." I said as we reached my front porch. "Ya. Well... I was singing alone, and I realized it is what I have always loved to do." He replied to me and I smiled to the ground. "Lift your head and smile. That's really showing your insecure." He said and I looked to him.
"Well see you later Niall." I said, and he smiled before giving his best bear hug I have ever witnessed. "See you Ari!" He exclaimed while heading to his house across the street. I waved while smiling. "Love you." I whispered to the ground, meant for Niall.
~*~*~*~ Next Week ~*~*~*~
Well today was the day... Me, Niall, and his family leave for his audition. Unfortunately... We go by car. It takes around an hour to get to Dublin where they're currently holding auditions. Me and Niall would be driving, while his father, his brother, and his brother's girlfriend drove in another. One car wouldn't fit all of us.
His mother and step father would meet us there after they fly in from England.
I dragged my bag out onto the front lawn. Since it was an hour away we decided to just get a hotel for a couple nights before heading back.
"Need help?" Niall asked walking over to me, I nodded, he took it, carrying it to his car, putting it into his trunk along with his case. He shut it leaning against it. "Not to be nosey... But why isn't your girlfriend coming?" I asked, he tenses, "Ex... Ex-girlfriend." He said. I frooze. "Why?" I asked him, trying to hold in my fist pumps and squeals.
"For one, if I do get accepted, I fly to London. And two, I want to focus on it rather than a girlfriend..." He replied. I smiled while nodding, "I actually understand that completely." I lied. I knew he would want me going with him, and I was upset that I had no chance of being with him anyways.
"Ready?" His dad, Bobby, asked while walking out of the house, fumbling with his keys. "Yup." Niall replied, popping the 'P' I rolled my eyes jokingly, as I headed towards the passenger side. I clambered in, and buckled.
Niall started it, and that was that... We're going to Dublin.
Half way through I became bored, my phone wasn't entertaining me and me and Niall haven't talked a whole lot. I decided to turn on the radio, It Will Rain by Bruno Mars was playing. I smiled as I hummed to the ending of the song.
'It Will Rain, by Bruno Mars, now who liked that one? While if you like this one, here goes Hung Up On You, by Hot Chelle Rae.' The radio announcer, broad casted. I absolutely loved this song!
"And I'm like ya! Everything you heard is true! Every body knows I'm hung, oh, up on you!" I sang poorly, Niall laughing his ass off at me! We both sang the second verse, and the chorus, and I took time listening to the song. It described my feelings for Niall perfectly. No matter what guy flirted with me, I'll always be hung up on Niall.
