'What do you want?' I say harsh. 'Nothing, I was walking and I saw you here alone. Are you crying?' Niall asked. Out of all people to run into, why him? I know that he didn't do anything wrong, I just can't stand him for some reason.
'No..' I say but my voice and tears betray me. He sits down beside me but I can see that he is unsure of what to do. 'If you need to talk, I'm here..' he says quietly. I look at him in confusion. Why is he being so nice? We don’t even know each other well and I haven't been nice to him. 'Why? Just walk away and pretend you didn't see me. Why do you even care? It's not like I have been nice to you.' I say with a shaky voice.
'I can see when someone is hurt and what kind of person would I be if I ignored that? Besides, it's late and dark. I can't leave you here all alone.' He says smiling at me.
For the first time I return the gesture. Maybe he isn't like all those other popular boys? 'I can handle myself.' I say but my tone is much friendlier towards him now. 'I am sure you can but I don’t want to take that risk. Can I walk you home?' He asks.
I sigh. 'I don’t feel like going home.' I reply. I'm hoping that he doesn't ask more questions cause I feel like breaking down. 'Okay. I'll stay here with you then.' His voice is so calm. I'm starting to like his company. I nod. 'If you really want to.' I say.
He looks at me and smiles again. He has a beautiful smile. 'I don’t want to bother you or something like that but please, if you want to talk, I'm here, okay?' He seems so nice and maybe I do need to get it all out but I'm just not ready. 'Maybe later. I don’t feel like talking about it.' He nods and smiles.
'I don’t know why you are being so nice to me but thank you.' I say. ‘Any time.' He replies with a smile. We were actually having fun together. 'I better go now. My parents may wonder where I am.' I lie. They wouldn't care.
'I'll walk along.' He says. I'm not protesting anymore cause it wouldn't work anyway. He is too stubborn. Back at my place I thank him again and go inside. As expected my parents are still yelling but suddenly they both look at me and go crazy. They start yelling at me for no reason and their words really hurt me. With tears in my eyes I walk back outside. Only to see Niall, still standing in my front yard, looking at me.
