Broken

Chapter 8

Happy Birthday Niall!

I can't believe he's 20 omdndksks

Anyways...

Here's a chapter in Niall's POV for his birthday.

Niall's POV

She was literally perfect. I know I always thought Lauren as perfect, but Kaitlin was just so down to earth. Not to mention she looked flawless yesterday, only wearing a sweatshirt and leggings. Oh god, her leggings were so tight and she was just so fucking hot. Forget Lauren, I want Kaitlin. She was single, right? Probably, I doubt she would've kissed me if she did. I still don't understand how she ended up hanging around Harry yesterday. They didn't end up making out, that I know of, so nothing bad could have happened. Harry had gotten her multiple drinks yesterday, I hoped she was just really thirsty. I'm sure Harry got her drunk though. I didn't see her after Harry took her inside when she wouldn't stop laughing. I was surprised Harry did that, he hated her. He better not start hanging all over her. I'm done trying to get Lauren, she doesn't even like me.

"What are you doing?" Lauren asked, sitting on the other side of the couch.

"Sleeping." I mumbled, all though I wasn't.

"Um, can I talk to you?" She asked.

"Sure." I said, my eyes still closed.

"It's about Harry." She said.

She sounded nervous, which was weird for Lauren. I opened my eyes and sat up, leaning against the arm of the couch.

"And..?" I pushed.

"So, yesterday, Harry took Kaitlin in his bedroom last night b-"

"He fucking did what?"

"Because he got her drunk and she passed out, if you would let me finish." She continued "and I went up there and I kind of attacked Kaitlin but it was all good because Harry pulled me off. Then he looked at her and smiled and then I told him he liked her and he said no, obviously. But because I'm me I told him multiple times anyways and then I finally said 'why not' and he said 'because I like you.'" She finished, sighing heavily.

I couldn't help but be relieved Harry doesn't like Kaitlin. Only because I know Harry knows how to get whoever he wants. But Harry likes Lauren? Lauren of all people. That is hard to even believe.

"He likes you?" I asked, emphasizing you.

"hey..." She whined.

"That's not what I meant. Besides, Harry never likes anyone. He usually just fucks them and leaves. No one ever knows who Harry likes. Even when he liked Madison, he didn't even tell anyone they were dating till we caught them on their third month anniversary," I replied.

"I know, which is why it's weird," She said.

She has a point. Harry knows better than to tell her that he likes her, even if he's mad.

"I think he likes her." She said.

"I dou-"

"If you guys are going to talk about me, why don't you get out of my house and do it." Harry said coming down the stairs.

Lauren's eyes went wide and she just stared at him.

"Can I help you?" He snapped at Lauren.

She blinked at him then got off the couch. Harry rolled his eyes and picked up the cups scattered all over the floor. As soon as the door shut Harry looked up at me.

"What the hell do I do?" He asked.

I shrugged. He couldn't really do anything.

"Look, I know you like her, but I wasn't planning on telling anybody because obviously I don't want to date." He said.

"No, it's cool." I said.

I'm not sure if I really wanted to tell him I liked Kaitlin. I told him about Lauren and I know he can't keep his mouth shut.

"But, I would like to know why you got so offended when she told you I took Kaitlin upstairs." He said smirking.

Shit. I guess I will be telling him.

"I'm guessing you don't like Lauren anymore?" He guessed.

I grinned at him. I wasn't going to confirm it, but he got the point.

"Don't you dare tell anyone like you did last time, jackass." I said.

He rolled his eyes.

"I won't, I won't." He said.

I couldn't help but smile to myself. I think I was really going to like having this new girl around.
