Christmas Lights (narry)

Liam took me out to a shopping centre in Brighton so I can get over Niall, and oh boy is it beautiful. My eyes went over the giant tree they have, ornaments lining everywhere. I still have things I need to get for people, like my niece and Gemma. I also need to still find something for Niall, but I am not sure what. 

There he is, on my mind again. 

 I suddenly became distracted again by the scent of freshly baked Christmas cake coming from a neighbouring bakery amidst the bustling streets of the shopping centre, I took my lingering gaze off of the enormous Christmas tree adorned with glistening ornaments and glowing fairy lights draped around it. Strolling alongside the magnificently structured buildings of Brighton, I watched as people swarmed in and out of the bustling coffee shops and bakeries like bees.

 As the evening sky faded away, the pink and orange hues were replaced with dark shades of blue, whilst the amber light of the street lamps spilt on the stone-paved streets. In turn, the elegantly decorated, wooden stalls slowly revealed their hidden wonders attracting long queues of bustling customers. 

The festively designed stalls, illuminated with blinking Christmas lights, vibrant ornaments and brightly coloured signs, were lined up along either side of the street and had varieties of delectable treats, jasmine-scented fragrances, skillfully hand-crafted greeting cards and unlimited choices of gifts to customers occupied for endless periods of time. 

The warm smiles of the people behind the stalls as they tossed freshly roasted, golden brown chestnuts into paper cones or carefully poured creamy hot chocolate into mugs and added generous layers of whipped cream, was returned by the beaming grins of the children who were eagerly waiting to get their mug. The energetic youngsters giggling at their creamy chocolate moustaches were followed soon after. The loud, spirited laughter of adults could be heard over the continuous chatter surrounding the vivacious atmosphere.  

I've always wanted a child. Something small and pure; I feel like it will be ages till I have one, but I do really want a baby. Liam took my hand gracefully, as we began going through shops; I ended up getting a Lego toy set for my niece, and a necklace for Gemma. I still could not find something for Niall; maybe I'll come back and not only shop for him but also shop for Liam, Louis and Zayn. 

We head back to the car; it being really dark. The winter has caused it to become dark at 5 and now that it's 9, it is almost pitch black outside. Without the golden gleaming lights; we would not see a thing.

Liam walks me to my dorm room like the gentlemen he is; he held my hand as we looked around the university halls. 

We stopped at my door; grabbing my keys out I turn to Liam and quickly thank him. 

"It's no problem," Liam said, "I loved taking you." 

He then started to lean it, woah woah woah. I pushed him back and gave him an apologetic smile; before walking inside. That's when I could hear the moans from Niall's room. He's having sex with someone. 

I shut the door; going to my bedroom in disgust. I am so heartbroken; why is he doing that? I mean, I guess it's not of my say to tell him not to have sex with anyone. But he knows how I feel, and he is just doing this here? 

They could not have just gone back to whoever is with him's dorm? I am so so upset and shocked.
