Letting Go (Niall Horan AU)

Chapter 29

October

.................

The next few day pass quickly, and mostly consist of assignments and being with Niall.

Theres the occasional tease from Jenna about what she walked in on the other day, but other than that it's been okay.

I occasionally hangout with Harry when I'm not with Niall. Harry has pretty much turned into my closest friend here at college, though I still do things with Jenna and her friends.

But over the past few days I've noticed that Harry and also Niall avoid the topic of each other. It's as if they're allergic to one another, and want nothing to do with the other boy.

It's strange really, from the information I've gathered from Harry, is they've known each other for a while and I suspect they use to be close. Best friends even. But every time I try to go into detail about their old relationship the subject is always changed or answered vaguely. Today I have come to the conclusion that Niall and Harry must've been very close friends, but something happened to end that.

Sometimes I wonder when all the tatoos and piercings came into play. I know that Harry started getting them when he was 17, but Niall never gives me a clear answer about his. I find that Harry once had facial piercings like Niall has now. But he says that he grew out of them. He also tells me he regrets a few of his tatoos that encase his body.

Though, Harry's body is not nearly as covered as Nialls. Harry just has quite an assortment of small tatoos scattered over his being. Whereas Niall has bigger tatoos almost in clusters.

But, aside from all the tatoos I've seen on both men I have yet to find the meaning of even one. They both deny me thins information, as they did their past friendship.

I think about all the possibilities as I make my way to my last class, Maths.

Niall

...........

I find myself almost jogging to Maths to beat October to our seats. It's become some sort of game for us, and I keep finding myself determined to win.

I race down the halls and realize I'm late by 10 minutes and know she is probably already there. But, even so I charge through the doors and am met by the eyes of my whole class. The professor, who I haven't bothered to learn the name of stares me down then continues writing on the whiteboard.

I scan the room and walk over to the back of Octobers long head of brown hair. I slide into the seat next to her and she leans over and whispers

"Beat ya."

I roll my eyes at her and kick her under the desk.

"I let you win" I whisper back.

"Sure you did Niall." She laughs at my deniance of loss.

The class is over 50 minutes later, and October and I walk out together.

I pull her hand into my much bigger one and she looks down and smiles.

I have absolutely no idea why such little things make her smile, but I do them anyways cause deserves to be always smiling.

I swing our arms back and fourth as we walk out to the parking lot.

"So do you wanna study back at my place?" I ask.

"Nope I don't need to study. I'm gonna ace this next test."

"Really?" I ask raising my eyebrow.

"Don't look so surprised!" She laughs.

"Your little tutoring lessons actually help if you haven't noticed." She smiles up at me. She then stands on her tip toes and grabs the piercing on the eyebrow I have raised.

"Stop that you weirdo." I say crossing my arms.

She shakes her head no.

"Make me."

I smile evilly down at her, and her eyes go wide.

"You have no idea what coming for you when we make it back to my place." I say mischievously still smirking.

October rolls her eyes and starts walking towards my car. She then looks over her shoulder and taunts.

"Nothing gonna be coming for me besides you when we make it back to your bed Niall."

I run up to her and gasp.

"October Emory Maine, what a dirty mouth you have!" I playfully scold, when really I would like for her to continue talking to me this way.

"I was only stating the truth." She replies batting her eyelashes up at me.

She then gets in the car and slams the door shut. And as I climb in after her and start the engine I can feel the already big tent in my jeans grow.

October looks over and notices my obvious excitement towards her earlier words, and laughs.

"Don't ya think you're being a little hard on me? Eh stiff?" She chuckles.

I raise my middle finger up at her as I drive towards the frat.

"That was one of the worst jokes I've ever heard in my entire life." I say.

She laughs again.

"You know it was funny. You just won't admit it."

"You're so gonna pay when we get to my room." I glare at her.

"Oh really?" She raises her eyebrow at me.

"Just you wait Tober." I reply.
