Jamie dropped me off about an hour ago.  I literally feel like I am being stabbed with each step I take.  He kissed me goodbye and told me he loved me and thanked me for last night, saying ‘he really needed that type of stress reliever’.  He told me he would miss me but he would try to make it back up here at the beginning or middle of September.  I nodded to everything he was saying and told him I loved him before he drove away.

Luckily my parents weren’t home when I got there.  It was obvious that I was in pain and I knew I couldn’t hide it while walking. 

Navigating the stairs up to my room was the worst but when I finally made it to my bedroom door I let out a long victory sigh.  The comfort of my bed was mere feet away.  I stayed in bed the remainder of the day, declining offers for food or spending time with my family.  I used the excuse that I would miss Jamie but in reality, I was relieved to be back to a long distance relationship.

I made sure that I kept my phone close and the ringer and text notification sound up to its highest level so I would be able to respond to Jamie right away if he should text or call.  And he did.  A couple of texts and a phone call to let me know he was home.

I woke the next morning to my text notification.  I groaned.  I didn’t really feel like talking or texting anyone.  I looked at the clock on my night stand; seeing that it was ten, I decided that I should get up.  I looked at the screen on my phone and saw that the text was from Harry.  I slightly smiled.

To: Niall

How did your weekend go…….?

He is checking up on me.  I knew he would.

To: Hxx

Good.  It was good.

To: Niall

You know even through text I can tell when you are lying.

To: Hxx

I’m fine.  We spent the day on the lake and then went out to dinner and then went to the park at night to watch the stars.  Then we just hung out at his family’s home.  He planned a really good day.

I waited for a reply but that reply came in the form of my phone ringing.  He was calling.  I couldn’t not answer.  I just texted him so he knew I was right near my phone.

“Hey Harry” I answered.

“See.  I know something is wrong.  Did he hurt you?”

“No he didn’t hit me Harry.  I’m really fine.”

“I didn’t ask if he hit you Niall.  I asked if he hurt you.”

Tears began to fall and I couldn’t hide it any more.  Harry waited for me to calm myself a little and asked what happened.  I do really trust him as a friend so I began to tell him everything.  I needed to tell someone.  I needed to let out everything that I have been holding in since the day I met Jamie.  I told him about the first incident with my friends and what happened in London and even giving my virginity to him and what happened the next morning.  I told him all about the romantic date we had on Saturday and that I wanted him at the end of the night and that it was beautiful at the beginning.  I told him everything.
