Left my ♥ in London...

What Did I Get Myself Into?

Chapter four; What Did I Get Myself Into...?

I woke up with a bunch of messages on my phone this morning. Alot from the girls, four from Aeron, and one from Niall. 'I'm so sorry...' I had no idea what he was talking about. I decided to forget about it for a bit and log on to Facebook. I had over 30 Messages in my inbox, most of which were death threats. I thought people were playing a joke on me. The top story on my News Feed was of some brunette girl who kind of looked like me, and a blonde who looked like Niall. I kept scrolling and read on about the topic. "Niall found his new Girl, Directioners find a new Threat."

"Oh. My. God." I whispered to myself.

I didn't even dare log on to Twitter. I was too scared. I had now become, what seemed to be, A national threat. He told me about a band yesterday. I decided to go to YouTube and look up the band. They were all amazingly gorgeous. One, in particular, caught my eye. It was Niall! I cannot believe he didn't tell me...

I had to text Niall back. 'Why didn't you tell me?! Have you seen Twitter and Facebook?!'

I needed Aeron right now. I remembered that he had texted me. 'Hey, sorry I missed your call, I was with Dyllin and Skyler.' 'Goodnight Beautiful. Sweet Dreams<3 Xx' '*MISSED CALL*' 'I have a surprise for you. Xx'

I wanted to know what he was talking about. I kept waiting for the mail that day. I had forgotten to text him back. As I was typing my message, the door bell rang. It had to be the mailman. I walked downstairs, passing my parents, and opened the door. I looked up, and to my surprise, there it was. My amazing surprise sent from Aeron. It was him!

I couldn't control myself. I wrapped my arms around him and he twirled me. I couldn't even speak, I was just so glad he was here!

"Oh my gosh! I can't believe you're here! Where are you gonna stay? How did you afford this?" 

"Well, I used the money that I got from my parents to buy a new car but, hey, I figured this was more important. Oh, and I'm gonna be staying with you." We both smiled. 

"Mom, Dad, did you know about this?!" I asked, well, I more yelled it than asked. 

"Of course we did. We just couldn't wait to see the look on your face!" My mom said.

I brought Aeron up to my room. There was no guest room. The only other room was my 4 year old sisters, Skye, and I'm pretty sure her or Aeron wouldn't want to stay with eachother. I'm so glad he came. It was absolutely perfect timing, with all of the hate and stuff.

"We need to go somewhere! How long are you staying?"  

"I'm here for a couple weeks, and Yeah we definitely do need to go somewhere!"

Thank God it was July 2nd. My birthday was in two days and this was the most amazing gift I could've ever gotten.

"Well, it's almost 4. You can go shower if you want and then I can take you somewhere." I said. 

"Yeah I'll go shower. I've been on planes and in cars for two days. And actually, I'm gonna take you somewhere tonight." 

He said with a little grin.  

"Okay! Go shower, stinky! Love you!" I said, playfully pushing him towards the bathroom. 

"Love you too! Go get ready." He said, then he poked his head out of the bathroom door and kissed me.

I went and got changed and re-did my makeup. I heard the shower stop just as I was about to curl the other side of my hair, and I knew Aeron would be done getting dressed and ready any minute now.

"Hey, you ready?" I heard him say while walking down the hall.  

"Yeah. I don't have a license here so we can take a taxi into town." I said while putting on my headband. 

"That's fine. Then we can walk around."  

"Okay, let me tell my parents!" I went to the kitchen and wrote them a note.

I called a taxi to come pick us up. It was about 6pm by now. The taxi came about five minutes later, we told him our destination and we were in town within five minutes.

"So, what are we gonna do tonight, babe?" I asked Aeron. 

"We're gonna go on that." He said pointing to the London Eye. Finally, something we can cross off our list of things to do together.

He grabbed my hand as we strolled over to the lit up ride. I looked up in amazement as I saw the Eye. I felt like a grain of sand against the world at this moment.

"I'm scared..." I whispered.  

"It's okay. I'll hold onto you the whole time." Aeron said with a smile.

We got in our little cart and started going up. My grip on Aerons hand got tighter as we got higher in the sky. When we were finally at the top, I reached for my phone and took an overview picture of London.

"This is going on Twitter." I said with a smile.

When the ride was over, we wanted to go to dinner. We walked around town until we found somewhere that actually looked tasty. We went to the Hampshire Bar & Restaurant. We mostly filled up on rolls though, so we left early.

"Oh, I'm so sorry." I said, as I accidentally ran into someone. 

"Oh no, I'm... Bella?" The guy said. I looked up. 

"Niall? What are you doing out here alone?"  

"Well, I was with Bree and Zayn but they bailed." 

"I'm sorry..." 

"Hey, can I talk to you real quick, over there?" 

I looked up at Aeron, he nodded his head in acception and let us go talk.

"Look, I'm really sorry about the hate you've been getting. I honestly never wanted any of that to happen. It's just, I thought I finally found a friend that didn't care if I was in a band. Whenever they knew, they only used me for my fame. But you, you're different. And the fans took it the wrong way. I see that you're with him over there, so I hope I didn't cause any trouble between you two." Niall said.

He was so sweet. I couldn't stand to see him alone. He needed a friend, one that didn't go to him for his fame. I would never do that. In fact, I hated being in the news. Other people love it, and I honestly don't get why,  but I didn't. I couldn't let him slip away. He was a great friend, for the day that I knew him. He was the first one there for me.

"Niall, I would never be your friend just because you're famous. I'll be there with you through the hate and everything because you were the first one I met here. You were there for me, even though we were practically strangers. My birthday is in a couple of days. Why don't we hang out?" 

"I would love that." He said grinning.

I loved the way he smiled. It was cute, like when a baby laughs.

"Great. Well, Aeron leaves next week, so I gotta get our time in. Text me later?" 

"Okay, and thank you, for not leaving me, or getting mad."  

"I could never hate you. Always remember that." I stood up to hug him. He looked so lonely. I didn't like him being alone like this.

I ran back over to Aeron.

"What was that about? Who is he?" He said with a hint of jealousy in his voice. 

"A friend. He wanted to apologize for some things."  

"You ready to go back? It's getting late, and you seem kind of tired." 

 I looked at my phone, it was already 11:53 PM. We walked home this time. It began to get really cold. I don't know why I was so stupid as to not bring a jacket. Aeron saw me shivering and gave me his MONSTER ENERGY sweat-shirt to wear. I pulled in closer to him. We were basically hug-walking down the sidewalk, all the way home.
