Drama, Love, and Superman (A One Direction love story)

Chapter 37

Arianna's POV

Niall and I's relationship is on edge. I don't know...I have been over thinking everything, I feel like he's dating me because he pities me or something. What if this entire thing is a lie? He just thinks I can't make it on my own, it's like he has no faith in me or something. I want to prove to him I can be on my own but I don't know how other than breaking up or something. I don't know if I want to breakup but everything feels so plastic, like it's all fake. I hate it. I pull the sleeves of my sweater to cover my hands then bite at my sleeves, what I do when I'm nervous. I have had like four full on anxiety attacks in the past week and I don't know what to do. I thought I was done with all of this but I guess not, I had just learned to control it.

"Hey babe, I'm home." I hear Niall's voice call out and he walks in and I look at him and half smile and put my arm down and fiddle with the sleeves. He walks up to me and places his hands on my waist and looks at me and I look up slowly. "What's wrong?"

"Nothing." I say almost inaudible and he frowns, I don't like seeing him sad. He leans in closer and my heart beat speeds up. He looks me in the eyes before kissing me and I pull away. "I think we need a break."

"What?" He asks, he takes his hands away and folds his arms and looks at me confused.

"I just think we need a break...I don't know." I mumble and he shakes his head.

"Babe, don't be scared to tell me what you're thinking...you can say it." He says softly and I shrug tears almost falling.

"I just..." I say before I finally break. "I've been over thinking everything and I just can't do this right now I need time to sort out my thoughts and get myself together. I'm sorry."

He looks at me and he looks broken. I feel awful but it needed to be said. "Okay, if that's what you want." He mumbled and walks out of the room and I hear the apartment door slam and I flinch. I didn't want to upset him. I put my face in my hands and let out a few sobs. God I can't even keep myself together. I grab my phone and dial Cara's number. She picks up on the third ring.

"Hello?" I hear her soft voice.

"Hey, it's Arianna, can you come over?" I can barely get it out before I let another sob.

"Oh my god of course, I'll be right there." She says and hangs up. I try to get myself together when I hear the door open and she walks into my room. She places her purse by the door and hugs me tightly and I cry into her shoulder, she was wearing a dress and heels and she had a purse...I swear she was about to go on a date.

"Were you about to go on a date?" I ask, pulling away and wiping my eyes.

"Yeah but I can call Louis and cancel, it's completely fine." She says and I shake my head. "I know something that'll make you feel better."

We walk down to her car and begin driving to Louis's new house. Once we get there she knocks and he was dressed in a suit. I interrupted a really fancy date.

"Hey babe, hey Arianna." He sounds confused.

"Can we stay in tonight? Arianna needs us." She says and Louis nods and smiles at me and we walk in.

"I'm going to go change, you can borrow some of my clothes." Louis says and him and Cara go back to his room. I sit down on his plush couch and cross my legs and I hear jingling. I look around the couch and a puppy is running towards the couch, he was adorable. When did Louis get a dog? The dog jumps onto the couch and climbs into my lap and I smile and pet him/her. I check it's collar, his names Mel. Louis and Cara walk out in sweats and t-shirts, Cara's wearing Louis's clothes so they're massive on her, she's wearing his The Fray shirt from the concert...I'm surprised he let her wear that.
