Niall's P.O.V

I pushed Liam away as he tried moving closer to me in bed. "Ni, what's wrong now?" I heard him sigh from behind me.

"No, don't touch me. I don't want to be too clingy." I said, moving away from him.

"Niall, c'mon." He tried again, moving in closer.

"No. Liam." I pushed, my voice raising a bit. I got up from the bed turning on the light. "C'mon, you wanna be close to me, get over here so we can talk." I say, my arms crossing over my chest.

"Niall, now is not the ti-"

"Now is the perfect time!" I yelled, holding my ground. "I'm tired of crying because of you Liam!" I shake my head.

"Then don't." He says, sitting up facing away from me.

"See? This is exactly what I mean! You make me feel like you don't care! And don't even get me started on what happened back at your office." I went off making Liam groan.

"I didn't do anything with him!" Liam yelled, getting up making his way towards me. I stood put, trying not to flinch at the angry look on his face.

"I know.. But what you said to him." I whisper. "It hurt."

"Look, I'm sorry okay? I'm tired. Let's go to bed." Liam said softly, beginning to walk back to the bed.

I begin shaking my head slowly. "Sorry... Sorry isn't good enough this time, Liam." I whisper, looking at him as he turned to me. "What would have happened if I wasn't there?" I ask, but he didn't respond. "I should have listened to Louis." I laughed at my stupidity.

"Excuse me?" Liam stared at me.

"He told me you were going to hurt me, but I didn't listen." I say, wiping a tear that fell. "The way you held him, and the way you looked at him. You said you loved me, but if I wasn't there to stop you, you would have done it." I say, looking down. "And please don't try to tell me you wouldn't."

"Niall, what are you trying to say?" Liam asked cautiously.

"And who knows what's happened since then." I said, disregarding him comment. "He's still your assistant, and you've been coming home late the past few days." I say.

"The fact that you would even think that makes you so ignorant." He scoffs making me laugh.

"The fact that you think my best friend, who also works for you, wouldn't tell me if something was going on makes you the ignorant one Liam." I spit, ready to catch him in a lie, because Louis hasn't said anything to me.

"I don't know what he told you, but I've never done anything with my assistant." Liam speaks slowly, anger rising in his voice. I turn around and walk out the door to Emma's room. "Where are you going?" Liam asked in a rush, following behind me.

"I'm leaving." I state simply. I'm quickly pulled back and pushed against the wall.

"No." Liam shakes his head. "No. You're not leaving."

"Yes I am. Now get off of me." I struggle against Liam's hold.

"Niall, you're not going anywhere!" He barks, making me flinch. "Niall, please. I'm sorry," he chases me down the hallway all the way to Emma's room. "Niall, don't." He whispers as I pick Emma up and set her in her car seat. "Niall, please don't leave." He pleased, but I ignore him. I carry Emma's car seat down the stairs. As I near the door I nearly drop Emma as a glass vase crashes against the wall next to me.

"Jesus, Liam!" I yell, stepping over the broken glass. Before I can make it to the door, Liam's stood in front of it, preventing me from leaving. "Move." I say.

"Niall, please don't leave. I'm begging you." I says tears in his eyes.

"Move." I voice again. "I'm coming back tomorrow to get my clothes. But for now, move."

"Niall, please." His voice cracks making my heart brake. He slides down the door, holding his head in his hands. I clinch my jaw and decided to leave out of the side door. As quickly as I can, I make my way outside and to the car. "Niall!" I hear Liam yell, as he makes his way towards me. I buckle Emma and then myself in before leaving.

After dropping Emma off with Ruth I drove over to Liam's. I knock on the door but get no answer. I decide to just walk in and what I find stops me in my tracks. The house is a wreck. Broken glasses, chairs knocked over, pillows thrown everywhere. I make my was up the stairs and walk to the bedroom.

"Liam?" I question quietly. Opening the door I see Liam laid out on the bed, looking peaceful. Without waking him I walk to the closet grabbing some of my clothes. As quietly at I can, I shortly observe Liam's sleeping figure. He's beautiful, and I really do love him. I just think some time apart is what we need. I sigh, exiting the room quietly making my way towards Emma's room to gather some of her clothes. After gathering all the think I though I would need for a couple weeks, looked around Emma's room. It seemed to be the only room not destroyed.

I hear footsteps and my name being called, "Niall?" I turn around and I'm met with Liam's red rimmed eyes. I almost feel bad, but then I remember that Liam brought this on himself.

"Please don't try to stop me Liam. I came here to get some clothes for Emma and I, that's it." I said, looking down at the floor.

"Niall. I-" he stopped himself, sighing in defeat.

"You can see Emma whenever you want, but as for me. I think we should spend some time away from each other." I say, knowing it would hurt Liam as he heard my words.

"So what? Are we just done?.." He ask, in a breathy voice.

"I-I don't know Liam.." I shake my head, unsure of the future. I can't keep going through this, I shouldn't have to. Nor should have I ever.

"Niall, please." He said walking closer to me. "I'm begging you, please don't leave." He said with such desperation, I know that if I looked up at him I would have fallen to pieces. "I can't live without you. Niall, I love you more that anything and everything in this entire world, combined." I hear him say, his voice getting closer by the second as I keep my eyes glued to the floor. "I'll do anything, tell me what to do and I'll make it right." He pleaded, making me look up at him. I though to myself, staring him in the eyes. "I just want to see you smile." His voice brakes, and my heartbeat speeds up at all the emotion he put into those seven simple words.
