Strong (Niall Horan Fanfic)

"I Don't Know What Is Happening"

Harry's POV

I walked right in front of Aly's flat, holding a bouquet of roses in hand. I made sure I looked good with whatever I am wearing and cleared my throat. I knocked the door and after a few seconds, the door opened. It is Alyson.

"Oh, Hi Harry," she greeted with a smile.

I smiled. "Hi," I greeted back.

"What are you doing here?" she asks.

"I came by to visit you and check you," I answered. To be honest, that isn't just the reason. I badly wanted to ask you out. I cannot find the strength to tell her so and I wanted to punch myself now.

"Oh, that is so sweet of you," she said then she looked down to the bouquet I was holding. "Are those for me?"

I looked to the bouquet and then back to her, giving her a smile. "Yeah," I answered then handed it to her. "I hope that could brighten your day,"

She smiled as she took the flowers. "Thanks. I love roses and I love the color too. Red."

I smiled wider after hearing what she said. Plus points, I guess. I should grab the chance now and ask her out. "Are you busy today?"

"No," she answered. "I'm staying at home actually because I have nothing to do. And besides, Niall's returning to Ireland today. We couldn't hang out and I don't want to go out because no one will accompany me,"

I gulped and was quite pissed upon hearing Aly saying Niall's name. "So, he was here?"

"Yeah, yesterday. We went around London and had quite some fun." she answered.

"I see," I answered, quite bitterly.

"Is there something wrong?" she asked.

"Oh, none actually," I answered. I then cleared my throat. "Since you said you have nothing to do, would it be fine for you if we go out? You know, hang out, maybe?"

She smiled. "Thought you've never ask. I mean, I would love to." she answered then opened the door widely. "Come in first and let me just get wear into something appropriate and we'll go. Is that fine?"

"It is," I answered as I walked into her living room. "You can take your time,"

"Thanks," she said and then placed the bouquet of flowers on the table and turned to leave. I looked around and I could see few frames on the top of the cabinet and on the table. The house seemed to be so simple, not to mention, that is what Aly is.

Then all of the sudden, something vibrated on the couch that I was sitting on. I started to search what is it then I found an Iphone, which undoubtedly Aly's. I checked the lockscreen and saw that the wallpaper is her with Niall, doing wacky faces and smiling at the camera. I started to feel a pang of jealousy in me. Then I saw a text message, which also comes from Niall.

"Arrived in Ireland just a few secs ago and I decided to text u up to let u know. Having fun right nw?"

I turned the phone off and placed the phone back to its original place, to where I found it. I felt my blood boil. So they are hanging out? Niall knows that I like Aly ever since I knew her. I took a deep breathe, trying to calm myself out because she might notice that there is something wrong with me. 

After several minutes, Aly came down the stairs. "I am done," she said with a smile. She was just wearing skinny jeans, a shirt that has the print of England's flag and a beanie.
