The Broken and Hurt (Niall Horan)

Chapter 15

You haven't expierenced hell until you have lived through a Coach Denise practice.  I'm not even kidding when i say that. They are just awful. 4 sets of Burpees, Diamond push-ups, side planks, twist ups, and many more. Then Suicide Sprints, jumpig jacks, piggy back stair runs.  There are alwasy a girl or two that either pass out or puke. Hell practices are the longest hour of your life. We would rejoice when they are over if we were able to. 

At the end of practice, I send Niall a text telling him that Practice is over and to meet at the front doors in 5 minutes to leave. I slip a a sweatshirt over my head and walk towards the front door as i wave to the a couple of girls that were rolling up mats. Wallking hurts. Every step sends needles throughout my body. A waters from Mordor shower is waiting for me at home. 

Niall waves at me as I walk down the main hall. He always looks happy whenever I'm around which is 

"Hi Elizabeth." he says "It looks like practice was difficult today."

"Yea. you could say that. Coach Denise was in today soo it was hell practice today." I groan.

We walk to the car. Niall grabs my backpack and carries it the rest of the way.

"Oh thanks you didn't have to do that. i can carry it though." I say as I try to take it back.

"It's fine. I'll carry it. You had a rough practice. ANd you are giving me a ride so its the least I can do."

"Fine." I huff. He just rolls his eyes. We toss the bags in the back seat as we arrive at the car. We get inside and sit down. I pull a bag of Tayto Crisps from the middle compartent and open them and throw a couple in my mouth. 

"YOu like Tayto Crisps too?" Niall asks.

"Yes. They are amazing. And my guilty pleasure after practice. Do you want some? " I tilt the bag in his direction.  He reaches his hand in the bag and grabs a small handful

"Thanks."

I set the half finished bag down and start the car and drive away. Niall turns up the radio and starts flipping through the stations. i turn and look over at Niall quickly. He is jamming out to 'Hall of Fame'  by the Script.  'You can go the distance. YOu can run the mile. YOu can run straight through hell with a smile. You could be th ehero, you could get the gold, breaking all the recordsthey though never could be broke.'

I smile at him. He is something different. COming from the family he has he should be acting so different, but its good that he doesn't act that way. He is always so happy around me even though he is hurt so bad, because of his parents. He deserves a better life. I decide he is not going back over there right now. He needs to live without stress right now and be safe.

"Hey Niall?" His ears perk up and he turns down the music and looks over to me. "Do you.. uh. want to come overand .. um hang out?" I stutter out. WHy am I so nervous?

"I would love to ELizabeth. Would you mum mind?" 

"My mum won't be home for another  hour to 2 hours. She has a big sale coming up at work. But she won't mind. "

"Are you sure?" I nod. "Okay. Lets go!" 

With that I drive to my house and pull up in a matter of minutes. We walk inside and get some snacks and head down to the living room to watch something on the telly. I realise I'm still all gross from practice. I need to shower real quick. 

i stand up and set the package of Jaffa Cakes on the table. "Ill be back. I need to shower really quick. I'm all sticky and sweaty from practice. I wont be long. I promise."

"Okay I'll be here when you get back." He chuckles.

I jog up the stairs and into the bathroom. I turn on the water and step inside. I feel a bit uncomfortable that a guy is downstairs whilst I'm up here naked in the shower.  After about 10 minutes, I am ready and head back downstairs here Niall is watching an older episode of Doctor Who. i love this show so I go and sit down next to him.A little closer tha I thought but its okay. i don;t mind.
