Chapter 12...
L U C Y P O V
I woke up to the bright harsh sun peeling through my curtains and blinding my eyes with it's beaming ray. I blink a couple of times to adjust my vision before pulling myself up from sleep.
Ever since last night, I couldn't stop thinking about Niall's and I's first real kiss. I never thought I'll have the guts to actually tell him how I felt about him but I'm glad I did.
I suddenly felt a smile creep along my face, as I watch for my phone on the wooden nightstand and scroll through my newest messages.
"I have feelings for you okay?"
His angelic voice keep replaying through my head as I came across a message.
To: Lucy (From Niall)
Good morning x.
I blush a crimson color at the simple text message and reply back, hoping he responds quickly.
From: Lucy (To Niall)
Good morning
I proceeded to press send and as I waited for his reply I rolled off my bed and walk towards bathroom and did my morning things. after I was finish, I carefully curled the ends of my hair, put on some clothes and applied a light coat of makeup, taking my time to make sure I looked presentable for the day. I didn't know why I do this, I'm just insecure about myself. Niall always tells me I'm beautiful but that because he hasn't seen me once without Something covered up other then one of those horrible days I get.
I made my way down the staircase, taking two at a time, and making sure to watch my step since I'm wearing wedges I don't want to fall and break my neck.
My nose guided me towards the kitchen to see my aunt making some pancakes and eggs while brewing a fresh cup of coffee.
"Good morning Auntie" I greeted quietly.
"Morning Doll" Those were the only words I heard. I gave her a small smile before walking past the kitchen but stop in my tracks when she spoke again. "Aren't you going to eat?"
"I'm not hungry" I lied, feeling my stomach make weird noises.
She shakes her head, and points at the plate sitting on the table, telling me to eat it.
I nodded and began eating my food in peace.The silence was so thick and deafening it made me sick. It wasn't always like this, not before the accidents and changes that we had over the past years. but I desperate hope one day My Aunt and I good be how we were before.
"Well umm, I'm going to walk to School" I adjust the strap of my bag and headed towards the door.
"But it's a twenty minute walk" she paused before getting up walking towards me "would you like for me to drive you?"
"No, I'm good. besides I need the exercise"I stated, glaring at her for a second before closing the door.

"Now class, after a refreshing thinking session; I have suggested, that to kick off this year, there is gonna be a language arts project" Mrs.Green chirped happily. Clapping her hands together. The whole class let out a groan , and protests of disapproval's, but that didn't seen to effect Mrs.Green in any way.
She smiled, handing out the instruction papers to us. After we all received our papers, she clap her hands once more and took a deep breath "okay now before we begi- wait..." she starts scanning the room, holding her glasses and frowning. "Where's Niall Horan?"
I gulped nervously as I shrunk down a little in my seat. Everyone shook their head and exchanged looks. Some even looked around the room thinking if they look he will magically pop out of the trash bin.
It slightly worries me that Niall isn't here. I know it would be kinda awkward cause we admitted our feelings for each other but I hate being here alone.
She continued, however and proceeds with the instructions for this project. I even had to take some notes on what she said knowing if I didn't, I would forget everything and their goes my grade down the toilet.
"Furthermore class, you will work in pairs, and I'm expecting you and your partner, to write about each other.
"Easy enough..." I huffed under my breath. I spoke to soon.
"You will write about what they do for a living, their personal beliefs and about everything and anything" she smiled, and accepted the whole class quietness before continuing "I'll be picking your partners" She paused, earning another groan from the class. "And since it's so personal, I won't be reading it. Only your partner,"
You gotta be kidding me?
"Sam, you will be paired up with Megan, Luke, to Alison, Lucy to.."She let out a sigh as she thought about who she was going to pair me up with. In all honesty I was a bit afraid of who I was going to get. I notice must of the people haven't even talked to each other , let alone sat by them.
I held my breath as she pointed in my direction" Lucy, with Emma" she smile sweetly as me.
I buried my head in my arms on the desk. Out of all people why would she partner me up with Emma? the backstabber bitch who ruined my only precious thing I had left of my mother.
"Great, I'm stuck with the loser" A voice whined in the back of the class.
Just then the door open, looking down at the floor, A familiar White Jordan's and black skinny jeans.
He clears his throat, Carefully as he handed her the pink slip.
This is gonna be more awkward...
"Oh, Mr.Horan! you're here, great" Mrs.Green remark, motioning for Niall to take his seat. She walked over to him and explained the whole project to him. He nodded but I can see he couldn't careless about it. neither did I.
He glanced over at me and smiled, making me even more nervous. I don't know why I'm so nervous when it comes to Niall. I mean we did kiss last night and he did say he had feelings for me, but do that mean we are dating?
Mrs.Green hummed silently, grabbing my attention for a short moment. She probably saw Niall and I exchanged faces cause a devious smirk was place upon her wrinkled face.
Thankfully after a few passing, seconds and a few sentences later the bell rung, and I gathered my books as quickly as I could, ready to get this day over with.
I slang my bag over my shoulders and quickly my belongings and stood up only to be knock against a male figure.
"Sorry" I mumble, keeping my head down.
"It's my fault. I should've watched where I was going"
I lift my head up to see a pair of blue eyes staring at me. He smiled at me but I was to stress to smile back.
His smile begin to fade as he clears his throat.
"Are you mad at me?" He finally asked.
"No" I blurt out, walking past him to the hallway.
As I keep walking I hear his footsteps linger behind me, and a pull on my wrist, twirling me around to face him.
"You seem mad"
"But I'm not" I assure him a bit annoyed. "Why weren't you here earlier?"
"I slept in" He declared.
"Well thanks to you, now I'm stuck with Emma" I retorted.
"Sorry.."
You should be
"I'll pick you up after school" he continued, and give me a quick kiss on the cheek"oh and I got something to show you later" he adds before walking off to his next class.
