Complications

Part 6

Niall’s POV

Just about 10 minutes when the cops left, we saw Daniel walking towards us. I got annoyed and had to stay calm. He was always so arrogant. He started talking to her like nothing happened. And to my surprise she did the same.

I looked at her in confusing. She sort of gave me a ‘I’ll explain later’ look. So I kept quiet. After Daniel left she didn’t say anything. ‘So what was that all about?’ I asked her. ‘Nothing, I just don’t want to fight with him.’ I didn’t get her and I was getting angry.

‘He just left you hanging here, comes back to be all normal and you’re okay with that?’ I raised my voice because of my anger. She got a little caught off guard but replied quietly. ‘I have to be okay with it. He and that group is all I have. They are the closest thing to friends and I can’t lose that.’

It hurt hearing those words, I thought we were finally becoming closer. ‘Then what am I?’ I asked and I’m sure that she could hear the pain in my voice. She stared at me for a moment. ‘Niall, come on. We both know that this could never work. We’re too different. We could never be friends and I don’t think that you girlfriend would like it if we were.

‘My girlfriends doesn’t control me. I can be friends with whoever I want to.’ She stayed silent. I can’t blame her, she had a long day. ‘Let’s just talk about this another time. I’m sure you had a long day and you need your rest.’ I said.

She smiled at me and we started walking towards her house. We reached her front door and she stopped. ‘Thank you Niall.’ ‘Anytime. Just go to bed for real this time okay?’ I replied laughing and she joined me.

She had a wonderful laugh. I went home myself and I couldn’t wait for art class tomorrow. I would see her again and hopefully we would have some fun. I guess I got that wrong..
