Come And Go (Sequel to Unpredictable)

Chapter 9

Niall's POV

I looked in the mirror and ran my hands through my hair, I looked a mess. My eyes had terrible black bags underneath them and were red from the lack of sleep, I hated feeling like this. Everything was going perfect until he came back, he made me shudder and my blood practically boil. I had no idea what to do, I'd ignored Liam since I woke up and he was getting pretty worried. I wasn't worried, just scared. You know what the feeling's like when you feel like you're constantly being watched? I've got that right now, I feel like every little thing I do is being picked up on. I turned away from the mirror and picked up my phone, I had three new messages from Liam.

To: Niall

Niall?:( why aren't you answering me? Please answer?x

Liam x x

To: Niall

Niall I'm getting more and more worried... if you don't answer soon I'm coming round :/ - Li x x

To: Niall

Niall seriously, I'm in tears please tell me what's wrong:'( - L x x

I sighed and decided to let him know I was fine,

To: My baby x

Boo please stop crying, I've just woken up sorry I haven't answered. Had a long night, I'll speak soon, need to see Haz xx

I hit send and typed a message to Harry, telling him I needed to see him, urgently. He responded quickly telling me to go to his so I had a quick shower before changing into my sweats and a white top, I grabbed my grey jacket and shrugged it on before slipping out the house quietly. I didn't want my parents getting in the way, especially not now. As I stepped out of the house I pulled my hood up, lowering my head and setting off for Harry's. I'd peer over my shoulder every now and again, feeling more anxious than I should. Every time I passed somebody I studied the ground, avoiding any sort of eye contact. I finally reached Harry's house and banged on the door, he pulled it open and looked at me concerned.

"It's him, he's back."

I was invited inside quickly, the door was slammed shut and the curtains drawn too. I took a seat on his sofa and pulled my hood down,

"What do you mean he's back?"

"I saw him yesterday, I was in the middle of kissing Liam and he coughed. We both looked and he just smiled, he didn't say much though and then he left. Liam doesn't know who he is but I had to leave him right away, I made sure he got straight home before running in my house. I don't know what to do Harry, I don't know why he's back again..." I trailed off, Harry scooted over to me and pulled me into a hug.

"Everything's going to be okay Niall, I promise." I shook my head, I knew it wouldn't. The waterworks started and Harry held me tighter,

"What's scaring you so much? You got rid of him last time, why not now?" I sat up and wiped my eyes with the sleeve of my jacket,

"He knows about Liam, hence why he found me. I don't know what he wants though, whether he's back for me or he's got a new victim. He was just so creepy, stood there watching us kiss. It scared me Harry." He sighed and rubbed my back soothingly,

"You've got to be strong Niall, imagine if Liam sees you like this? He'll be more scared than you, you have to protect him okay?" I nodded,

"Stay here and I'll get you some tea." He wandered off and my phone buzzed in my pocket,
