The Bakery Girl // n.h

Chapter 16: Fixing

Bel's P.O.V:

It's beena great day, I got some of the simple memories back. Few were about Niall, moments I've never thought I could forget. It was last class before I could wrap it up, and Harry again walked me there because we have Literate together too.

"Wonder who's this term's professor" Harry wonderd while we took our seats.

"Yeah me too, Ms. Leenox wasn't the best professor ever" I added then chuckled, he looked at me and smiled, his eyes shifting colors to a brighter green.

"Agree" He said as we enterd the class, everybody turned their attenton to us, smiling so sweetly, so I smiled back. I sat a little at the back, 3rd row I think, and Harry asked if he can sit next to me, I just smiled and nodded. I noticed Niall was siting at 1st row, socializing with a girl. She looked somehow funny, with the lip piercing and her tattooed body. I saw Niall glance at my direction, to my surprise, he stayed slightly calm. He smiled a small smile before returning his focus to the blue haired girl.

In came a tall woman, brown hair, brown eyes and she was wearing a buttoned up shirt and jens with high heels. Is she the new professor?

"Attention everyone, please take your seats" She spoke polietly as she settled some files and books on her desk, looks like she is the new teacher. After everyone took their seats, the room was filed with silence.

"Hello everyone, I'm Ms. Wintle and I'm your new Literate teacher" She explained, a sweet smile painted on her lips.

"So who here have the gift of imagination?" She asked and a few raised their hands.

"What about the gift of reality?" She asked and I with a couple of people raised their hands.

"Good to know, now I want everyone of you to write a short story about a bitter-sweet moment in your life, due date will be next Monday" She said before she started giving her lesson. I gave my full attention to the class, listening and learning can reward you with new information after all. After class, I walked with Harry, looks like he was a good friend of mine.

"She's not that bad" I admitted and he smiled.

"No she isn't, in fact, it's the first time I really focus on Literate since a while now. Ever since the begging of the year, I started hating it beause of Mr. Leenox" He chuckled, and his laugh is like beautiful melody to my ears.

"So what's the most inspiring book you've read until now?" I asked and he made a thinking face.

"It's got to be Pride and prejudice" He admitted and it kinda carried me away by surprise. An athlete and a booklover? Impressive.

"What's the thing that attracted you the most?" I asked and smiled.

"You know how everytime a love story starts it had to end up with a happy ending? I started reading it because a lot of people recommended me to do so. I thought it was just another sappy love story until I read deeper and found out that there isn't a happy ending for every love story" He explained, his eyes sparked with happiness.



"Captain of the football team and a deep bookworm who's into love novels, should've known" I teased him and he pouted.

"What was that supposed to mean?" He whined and I laughed.

"Your laugh is sure something special" He teased and it was my time to pout.

"What was that supposed to mean?" I asked and he laughed loudly, throwing his head back.

"It's just special in a good way and I like it" He admitted and my cheeks flushed a bright red, this is never gonna stop, I thought. I heard someone shouting my name so I turned around to find Niall a few feet away from me.

"Hey" I smiled sweetly at him and he smiled back.

"Hey, I was wondering since your going to the bakery and since we both worked there, why don't I give you a ride?" He asked and I wonderd about the bakery, it feels like I haven't been there for ages! I glanced at Harry who was smiling.

"It's okay, I have football practise anyway but I'll skype you later, okay?" He asked and I nodded, smiling sweetly, I smiled a lot today. That's a good thing, right? I hugged him on more time before I surprised him with a kiss on his cheek. He smiled widely before walking away.

I truned around to see an angry Niall standing in front of me, not again, I thought. I leaned forward and kissed his cheek softly as I moved to whisper in his ear.

"He's just a good friend, I promise. I may have forgot you but there's no way I could forget the fact that I once loved you" I said as I backed away, a soft smile playing on my lips. He looked at me surprised but then smiled widely. I gripped his hand in mine as we walked to his car, I daresay this is one of the unforgetable days ever.

The ride was full of talking, smiling and even laughing, maybe I have changed after all. You think that's a good thing? My mind suddenly spoke. Uhhh, I don't know..? I threw that question bak in my mind, concentrating on what's going on.

"Hey love, are you ok?" He asked and I nodded then blushed.

"Are you sure?" He asked again, worried.

"Did you just called me love?" I teased him, while wearing a serious look.

"Umm-Uhh, I was gonna" He stuttered and I laughed loudly.

"I was just teasing but you should've seen your face!" I continued laughing and he swiftly turned red in the face.

"Niall?" I spoke but he didn't answer, is he really mad at me?

"Aw c'mon!" I spoke again but he just focused his gaze on the road, his lips formed a straight line.

"Don't worry, I actually liked it" I whisperd into his ear, making him shiver. Wow, do I have this big of an effect on him? He turned around and smiled at me before parking the car. As we enterd the bakery, I got crushed in a bear hug by somebody.

"Were glad your ok and we utterly missed you!" A familiar voice gusehed as she hugged me tighter, I could never forget that voice even if I wanted too.

"I missed you to anny banany!" I squealed while hugging her tighter.

"Forgetting me?" I heard someone ask.

"Daddy!" I gushed as I hugged him tight. I don't care if I'm acting childish, I really missed them so much.

"How are you feeling?" They asked at the same time, making me chuckle a bit.

"I'm feeling great! How are you guys?" It was my time to ask as me and Niall wore our bakery apron.

"Were feeling better now that we know your doing just fine" Ana smiled at me, she's really pretty and it's not fair, I look like a monster compared to her.

"This place is starting to get pretty crowded with your attendence, let's get started shall we?" Ben asked, a smiled tugged on his lips.

"We shall" I answerd, as I enterd the kitchen while starting the night by mixing some cake batter. Life is getting too great to even be true, can it always be like this? It can't ever be like this even if you wanted to, my mind thought. And here we go again.
