Chapter 3

Petyon's P.o.v.

I was terrified. Especially of being separated from my friends. I trusted Niall more than any of the other boys though, he seemed pretty nice.

"Come on, lets sit by the fireplace." Niall said sweetly.

I nodded and followed him over to the table right by the warm flames.

"You know, you're pretty quiet. What's up with that?"

I could tell Niall was trying to get me to open up but I wasn't going to. Not yet. I shrugged my shoulders and bit at the skin around my nail.

"You don't know why you're quiet?" he chuckled.

I let out a big sigh and decided to talk.

"Do you really think I want to be here?"

"What, you don't like Panera?"

"No I meant be here. With you-" he dropped his head. He looked hurt.

"Niall, I didn't mean it like that..."

"Forget it."

Now I felt bad.

"So um, what do you want to eat?" he said breaking the silence.

"I'm not hungry."

Niall got up from his seat and gave me a threatening don't-even-think-about-moving look. I stayed where I was. He brought back a bowl of chicken noodle soup and placed it in front of me.

"I said I wasn't-" he cut me off.

"Eat."

"Niall I'm not hungry. I have a stomach ache."

I wasn't lying. Everything that happened within the past 24 hours made me nauseous whenever I thought about it.

"Damn it Peyton, I'm trying. Can you at least give me a chance? Can you give me a chance to prove I'm not going to smack you? I understand you're scared. I would be too, but you have to trust me. I'm trying to be nice but it's hard when you hardly talk and refuse to eat?"

I stood up and hugged him. I wrapped my arms around him and held on to him. He probably thinks I'm a bitch. I've been so mean to him. I shouldn't be this nice to him, he kidnapped me, but I had no one. A tear slid down my cheek and onto his shirt. I was stressed and tired and I didn't feel good. He was being so nice to me and he was right, he deserves a chance.

"I'm sorry Niall." My voice cracked and I let go of him.

"Shh don't cry, it's okay."

He wiped the tears off of my cheeks and half smiled. I decided to take a couple bites of soup so I could get away from public humiliation.

"Ready to go to my house?"

I nodded and he grabbed my hand and led me to his car. At this point I was embarrassed for my rude behavior and for crying like a three year old. I stared out the window for the whole car ride without saying a word. When we pulled into his driveway he spoke up,

"Peyton go inside and make yourself at home, I'll be there in a second, I have to call Harry."

"Alright."

Great. He was probably going to call Harry to make fun of me. When I opened the door my mouth dropped. Niall's house was incredible. I immediately went to his couch and took a nap. This was going to be a long week.

Madee's P.o.v.

After Harry and I ate at Panera, he told me he had a surprise. He never told me where we were going. I didn't know if I should trust him, he could drop me off and leave me in the woods or something. I was really uncomfortable around him and I worried about the other girls. I don't want them to get hurt. I think Harry could tell I was scared so he tried to take my mind off things by asking questions.
