Complications

Part 24

I can’t help but stare at him all the time. He is really good looking. I actually can’t believe that I suggested to sleep in the same bed. But he can’t sleep on that couch! He will get sick if he ends up on the floor again. And he is too stubborn to switch so this is the only solution.

When he lays down next to me I immediately feel the warmth. Before we know it our lips are together. It’s an amazing kiss but he suddenly pulls back. ‘What’s wrong?’ I ask, afraid of the answer.

‘I can’t, I’m sorry.’ He says. I’m confused, what? ‘Why? I thought..’ I begin but he cuts me off.

‘ Yes, you thought right but then I started to have doubts because..’ He sighs. ‘Because what?’

‘The note in your pocket.’ Shit, the note? He found the note, he read the note, what am I going to say? ‘It’s not what you think.’ I say, hoping that he believes me. ‘That’s what I was hoping, I didn’t.. I don’t believe it.’ I’m surprised. I would think that he would think that it was true.

‘What? You don’t?’ He smiles at me. ‘No, I don’t but I’m still confused. Why the note? What did he mean? ‘Not the part of dumping me afterwards, the money part..’ I sigh. ‘It’s nothing.’ I state and turn around so he’s facing my back.

‘Hey..’ he says while he turns me over again. I’m looking right into his eyes now. ‘You can trust me..’ ‘I know, I just don’t want you to get involved, that’s all.’ I can’t involve him. He will get hurt and I don’t want that. He means too much for me. Does he? Yes he does. I’m still too stubborn to admit it but I’m falling for this blonde angel. His name even sounds like an angel. Niall.. I repeat in my head.

Niall’s POV

This definitely proves that the note wasn’t true. She wouldn’t just dump me when I gave her money or something. She doesn’t even want me to get involved. But I have to. She’s in trouble and I don’t care about the money. All I care is to help her. But I won’t push anything. She will tell me what’s going on when she’s ready for it.

‘Fine. Just get some rest okay?’ I say and without thinking I kiss her on the forehead. She falls asleep really quick. She must be really tired. She looks like an angel.

Wait shouldn’t I let her parents know where she is? Why didn’t they even call her already?  Suddenly I get a text from an unknown number.

*Hi, is this Niall? I’m Maddie, Megan’s sister. She told me the contact this number if she would stay  out too long. Is she okay?* I quickly text back that’s she’s fine and staying the night over.

*Okay, take good care of her or I’ll find you ;).* She replies. I’m pretty sure that she’s being sarcastic but I love the fact how her sister would say that. I’m glad she has a friend in her family cause it doesn’t seem like her parents care much.

I’m not that tired but I decide to try and sleep anyway. I hope she gets a good rest this night. She deserves it. Maybe she’ll talk to me tomorrow, we’ll see.
