My Deep Dark Love

chapter fifteen

I rolled over in my bed and opened my eyes. I gasped and jumped back almost falling onto the floor. Niall was laying beside me sleeping. When did he get here? Whatever. I got up slowly trying to not wake him up.

I tip toed across my room and opened the door quietly then shut it. I walked down the hallway towards the bathroom. I shut the door and began undressing. I turned the water on until I was satisfied with the temperature.

I lathered my hair with shampoo then conditioner. I washed my body with strawberry scented body wash. I stood there for awhile letting the hot water relax my muscles. I turned the water off and stepped out of the shower.

I grabbed a towel off the rack and wrapped it around my body. I brushed my teeth then dried my hair with another towel. I walked back to my room forgetting that Niall was in there. I opened the door and gasped when he was standing in my room.

He looked my body up and down and smiled slightly. I felt my cheeks turn red as I held the towel tighter against me. He slowly walked over to me and wrapped his arms around me.

"Niall stop" I said pushing him away with one hand while using the other one to hold my towel up.

"What?" He said stepping closer to me.

"You need to know something" I said thinking about what I was going to say.

I quickly walked to closet and put some clothes on then walked out to see Niall was still in the same spot.

"Niall I'm a descendant of Isobelle and her spirit is with me and that's why I thought I loved you but I don't its all Isobelle and that's why you were attracted to me in the first place" Well that came out worse then I wanted it too.

"You're lying" He said looking straight into my eyes.

"But I'm not Niall" I said walking out of my bedroom and down stairs.

I didn't stop walking once I got down stairs. I walked right out the door and past all the other boys. Once I got to the edge of the forest I started to run not even thinking about where I was going.

I felt a hand grab my shoulder. I turned around to see Harry standing behind me. We looked at each other for a moment not saying anything.

"You told Niall" He said.

"He should know"

"Did you ever think about telling him gently" He said, his chest expanding.

"I never thought-"

"No you didn't think, do you have any idea on what you just did to him?" Harry yelled cutting me off.

I looked at Harry sympathetically. I never thought about Niall I just had thought about myself. I hurt Niall and the other boys as well.

"I'm sorry" I said looking at the ground.

"You should be saying that to Niall not me" He said turning away and going back towards the house.

I sat down on a close by rock. I looked around at the forest. Poor Niall. He is so delicate and fragile and I just broke his heart. Him knowing that I'm a descendant of Isobelle isn't what he was looking for at all.

But I now know the only reason he fell for me was because I am Isobelle's descendant. I wish I had knew this earlier then I couldn't have hurt Niall. Niall doesn't deserve this one bit.

I got up and started to run back towards the house. I stood at door and took a deep breath in and walked inside. Niall was sitting on the couch reading a book.

I walked over to him and sat down beside him. He looked up at me with sad eyes.

"Niall ... I'm so sorry on what I said earlier and how I said it" I said sincerely looking into his eyes.

"It's fine, I knew deep down inside but I just didn't want to believe it"

We smiled at each other for a moment then I got up and walked away.
