Summer Love

Summer Love P. 7

Niall's POV

A couple days later...

So Skylar and I have been spending the past couple of days together a lot. I fall for her even more each day. Everything has been happening so quickly but it just feels so right.

"Okay boys, so today you guys have an interview at 3pm and then you will be off to Oakland for your concert at 7pm." Paul informs us.

We all nod in agreement. Until Paul speaks up again once more,"Niall can I speak with you in the hallway?"

The boys all tease at once saying,"oooooo"

I just roll my eyes and smile. We walk out to the hotel hallway. I wait patiently for him to talk.

He sighs and begins,"so Niall there have been photos of you and Skylar together. And people are getting suspicious..." I nod curiously.

"Well for this interview management told me to tell you to deny any relationship with her." He finishes. I stand there in shock. With my lips slightly parted soaking in his words.

"Do you understand Niall?" He questions.

I shake my head,"no I won't do it!"

I disagree.

"Come on, Niall it's for the sake of Skylar. You don't want her getting hate do you?"

I shake my head in defeat,"well no" I look down at my feet.

"I know it's not what you want but it's for the protection of Skylar. It's for the best." Paul explains.

I just walk back inside the hotel room. The boys try getting my attention but I just ignore them and storm into my room, shutting the door loudly for effect. I plop myself onto the bed and scream into my pillow. I know this seems like such a girly thing to do but I can't think of any other way to let out my anger and frustration. It's just not fair. Stupid media runs our life now and it's just disturbing and Frustrating.

As I'm having my little tantrum I hear a soft knock on my door. "WHO IS IT?" I ask annoyed as hell. I swear if it's one of the la-"it's me Skylar. Can I come in?"

She says in a soft voice.

I sit up and straighten out my presence and reply,"oh yah sorry uh come in love."

She walks in slowly. Creaking the door open and poking her head in. Once she sees me she smiles then completely comes in and closes the door behind her. She walks toward the bed and sits next to me. "What's wrong Nialler?"

She asks curiously.

I think it's cute she called me Nialler. I crack a small smile but it instantly disappears when I answer her,"they want us to deny our relationship, Sky"

She looks at me intently, "why?"

I look down at my lap and sigh.

I look up into her beautiful green eyes and continue,"they say it will protect you from getting hate."

"I doubt that" she says rolling her eyes.

"Why do you say that?"

"Because....they already do send hate regardless." She says avoiding looking into my eyes.

I'm shocked,"they already send you hate?!" I reach up to tug my hair in frustration,"WHY DIDNT YOU TELL ME?"

She is taken back a bit but bravely reaches up to my clenched hands intertwined in my hair a softly removes them from pulling my hair and I relax. She continues to hold onto them. She slowly rubs the top of my hand with her thumb. She then looks up to me and answers,"it's okay Niall. I know better than to listen to them. Trust me I've gotten hate from being Harry's best friend I've already gone through this. I'm over it. It's just plain jealousy they feel toward me. And I'm not letting it get to me."
