*One Hour Later*

So. It's been an hour since the kiss and I regret it. I cannot go deep into this, Im practically putting myself out on a plate for them...Ew.

Nialls acted like nothing has happened, and he even ordered us pizza.

"Fancy watching a film or something?" He asked walking from the living room into the kitchen as I placed my plate in the sink.

"Don't act like were friends on a sleepover or something like that! I didn't want any of this!" I answered back probably a little too coldly.

"Fine, do what you want love I only asked." He replied calmly before flashing me a grin.

"Whatever. Im off to bed" I said pushing past him to go to my bedroom. I could feel him following me closely...Wait. He is not sleeping anywhere near me.

"Sofa." I said reaching the top of the stairs.

"Did I say anything about sleeping in your room?" He chuckled before sitting down on the cream sofa.

"Night." I replied bluntly ignoring his remark before slamming my bedroom door. I guess I should just go to bed. Any excuse to be away from him.

He confuses me so much, and I wish he never kissed me.
He likes me. Or is he saying that to lure me in as...food...or drink. Or whatever they call it

I don't like him that way. I can't. I shouldn't.

I let out a sigh and undressed into my blue sheep pyjamas and thought of Tegan. I missed her... She made everything better. Always making me laugh.

But then when Im away from home, I miss Charlotte.
Can't win, I guess.

I lay down on my bed as I wrapped myself up in my purple duvet before falling fast asleep. And its only 9pm.

*Niall POV*

*THREE HOURS LATER*

I can't sleep. It's now 12.02 am, and normally Im awake at this time. Plus this sofa is very uncomfortable. I can hear the sound of the clock, everything is so quiet...

I shouldn't have kissed her.

I feel like such an idiot. By her reaction she clearly doesn't like me  back... I need to stop doing this. I can't like her that way. She's a human,I'm a vampire. It CANNOT happen.

But that still doesn't mean I'm not protecting her. I will protect her.

I was interrupted from my thoughts to hearing her murmuring upstairs. I bolted upright and off the sofa. Was she talking to someone?

Did she have a boyfriend?

I stood silent listening very carefully.

Sometimes there was a good side to amazing hearing abilities.

I can't hear her anything anymore.

I closed my eyes listening harder.

I heard her murmur again. Only she sounded like she was hurt.

Immediately I bolted upstairs and listened by her door.

She was silent again.

I knocked the door gently, twice.
