"What are you doing here?" I asked.

"We need to talk Tum-... Autumn."

I closed the book and laid it on a small table that was in front of me.

I shook my head. "Sorry Niall, but not now." I gave him a small smile.

My response made his lips curled down into a frown.

He deeply sighs. "You love him don't you Autumn?" He slowly looked into my hazel eyes, looking for answers.

I didn't reply to him.

Either I was afraid to hurt him by saying yes, or I was too shy admitting that I already fell for Harry.

I looked to my fingers and started to play with them.

It's instinct when I'm nervous.

"Where were you Niall?" I tried to change the subject.

"You didn't answer my question." He looked away full of sadness and pain.

I looked down again.

"Y-Yeah.. I guess.. I do love him." I replied after few seconds.

I looked at Niall and his eyes were teary.

I took a step closer to him and gave him a hug.

I didn't know why, but it seems right.

I heard a light sob from Niall.

I rubbed his back. "I'm sorry." I whispered in his ears.

I don't know why he likes me though.

I'm not beautiful, I'm not slim, I'm just plain old Autumn.

I don't see what they see in me which I find confusing.

There are other million girls that Niall could have.

I know that because he's such a great guy.

"Why him though?" Niall pulled away from my hug and whisperer.

I looked at him.

When he asked that, I didn't even know the answer.

I just love him.

I love how he makes me feel.

I love his choky jokes.

I love his curls and his minty scent.

I love that he cares and that he loves me back.

I love how there was always a spark whenever we kiss

I just love him so damn much.

"He's the one?" I replied, not wanting to say those words that I thought.

I chuckled at myself because I sounded so corny.

Niall nodded, then he sighs.

I gave him a soft smile, until I saw a figure behind him.

I tilted my head too get a clearer view of the person.

I saw a guy.

I haven't seen him in my entire life, but maybe I just lost the memory of seeing him.

His eyes were dark.

I felt uncomfortable seeing him standing there.

There was a bad vibe.

I felt fear in my body.

I started to tremble for some unknown reason looking at his eyes that looked crazy.
