That Concert (Niall Horan)

Chapter 61

My phone buzzes on the bedside table, but I ignored it. It's probably Niall or ElLe, coming to tell me more lies.

When it goes off again, for probably the 50th time in the last ten minutes, I groan, and roll over on the bed and pick it up.

I haven't really moved from bed for the past few weeks, really only to get food or tend to Charlie and Sammy.

From: Elle

Can I come over? x

I'll explain!! x

Please? x

Izzy? x

Hellooooo? Anybody there? x

And they went on. I sighed, and replied.

To: Elle

Come over to explain. But if you lie to me, I'm not talking to you again!

From: Elle

On my way!! x

I get out of bed and make myself look like I didn't just jump out of bed.

A few minutes later there was a knock at the door. I walk over and answer it. Elle is standing there and lifts up a tub of ice cream in her hands.

"Thought it would lessen the blow." She gives me a small smile.

I step aside and she walks in, she goes to the kitchen and puts the ice cream in the freezer and walls out and we both take a seat on the couch.

"Spill."

"Okay, well, as you know, the whole Niall and you dating was a stunt. But he really does love you Izzy, he asked me to try to convince them, because I live with you and they don't know me. The week I went 'missing' I was looking at apartments and I was trying to convince them." She explains.

"I-I..." She continues talking.

"I understand if you still hate me, hell, I probably deserve a punch in the face right about now, but we did it for you." She sighs, running her fingers through her hair.

"I forgive you." I simply say and next thing I know I'm being tackled into a hug.

"Okay, good, I was thinking we should have a girls night, just us two and chill and watch movies and cry, no phones and no boys." She says excitedly.

"Sounds like a plan." I nod and she smiles.

"But, before this night starts, what happened between you and Niall?" She asks and I sigh.

I tell her about the fight, the break up and everything, she just nods and hugs me when I start to cry.

We push the couch back and get pillows and blankets and lay them on the floor, Elle goes out to get more ice cream and I go out to drop Charlie and Sammy at El's.

We both arrive back at the same time. We walk in and sit on the bed we made on the floor. Elle grabs the remote from the side and aims it at the TV.

"Let this night begin." She says pressing play, but only it doesn't do anything.

"Seriously?" She groans, standing up and walking into her room then back into the lounge.

"What?" I raise an eyebrow as she places two batteries in the back of the remote.

"I wanted to play pranks on you, so I took the batteries out of this remote, but you obviously didn't use it, so basically pranked myself." She sighed.

"Right." I start laughing and she presses play, the film starting this time.

"Oh, and by the way." She pauses, putting a chip in her mouth. "You might want to be careful going into the spare room."

***

This is it. The day I have been dreading, ever since that night. The girls night. Elle is at school, but I need to get something from the spare room.

I wrap my arm just a little around Sammy as I take a deep breath and open the door

I let out a small yelp when something jumps out at my face. I look at it and realise that it's a plastic spider hanging off a bit of string.

I sigh, shaking my head and walk in the room, finding what I need and walking back out and into Elle's room.

"It's payback time." I mumble to myself and start putting up pranks around her room.
