NIALLS POV
The pas few day of school have flown by. I can't tell you how proud I am of Lex. She has gotten more confidence in herself and is standing up for herself. Today is the last day of school and we are both very happy. We are leaving early and I'm taking her to a movie and dinner. Speaking about leaving, it's almost June. I leave June 2nd. It's May 29th. I haven't told her yet because it's still not the right time. She has been getting panic attacks sometimes but they died down. She is still living with me and my family. Her mother went back to their house because her father has disappeared. We wanted to leave at lunch time so we can go get food. It's lunch time right now and I am going to meet Lexie. She told me she is running late so I went to the music room. I grab a spare guitar and start playing the verse I wrote for her.
"You never loved yourself half as much as I love you
And you never treat yourself right darlin' but I want you too
If I let you know I here, for you
Maybe you'll love yourself like I love you oh."
Ugh it frustrates me that I can't think of anything else. I hear a knock at the door. Lexie walks in.
"Hey sorry, are you ready?" I walk up and hug her and kiss her.
"Yea lets go." I interwind our fingers and we walk out. When we about walk to the car.
"Lexie!" Someone shouts. We both turn and there is a short girl with dirty blond hair running towards us. I think her name is Katie. That was Lexie's friend who stabbed her in the back.
"What?" She ask the girl.
"I just want to say I'm sorry. I shouldn't have left you. Every time I saw your cuts I wanted to cry knowing that I caused them."
"Why did you leave. I told you everything." I hear her voice that is barley herd. The girl just shrugs.
"I don't know. They said that if I leave you that I would become popular and-"
"So you left me to become popular?" Lexie cuts her off. I look at her and she looks hurt and mad. I see tear threatening to flow out but she doesn't like showing emotion to others so she holds them back.
"Yea, it was stupid I should have never left you. I know that you trusted me with your life and I blew it. I scold myself every day for making the mistake of losing an amazing friend and going to a bitch. I left that crowd she just talked about everybody. And she told me that she only bullied you because she's jealous. Because your smart, pretty, funny, and you have a hot boyfriend. In her exact words." I couldn't help but blush at the last part. "Would you please give me another chance. I know you still have my number and I still have yours. You don't have to forgive me right away but I want to know that you'll at least think about it?" I think this is a sincere apology. I look at Lexie and tears are still in her eyes.
"I'll think about it." She replies with a small smile. I look at Katie and she has a big smile on her face.
Once Lexi as I are in the car she lets the tears fall.
"Princess? Why are you crying?" I hate seeing her cry.
"I don't know. I never thought we would talk again. Losing something you love like a best friend hurts. I cried for a week straight and didn't talk to anyone. Then the bullying started and I started to cut myself." I cringe every time I think of my princess hurting herself that way. "I guess I'm just happy she apologized." She looks at me and smiles.
"I'm happy for you." I peck her lips an start driving. We go to the movies and we see Insidious Chapter 2. I love scary movies. I can protect her. After the movie we go to a Chinese restraint. We order take out because it was so crowded inside. When we got home we went to my room and dug in.
"Because I ate it." She laughs at my lame joke which I know she doesn't find funny but still laughs. I'm going to miss that laugh. I told the why did the chicken cross the road joke. I made it to where I said it didn't because I ate it.
"I can't believe it's summer. We can spend time together and not have to worry what anyone thinks." Damn I guess I have to tell her. It's now or never.
"About that," she looks at me confused " for the past few weeks I've been going to the park and playing. A lot of people like my music and singing."
"That's great Ni." She smiles. Damn imma miss that smile.
"Well Friday evening I was playing and as I was packing up to leave someone came up to me."
"Who?" She looks so fascinated. She gets so excited about everything and I love that.
"Simon Cowell." She gasp and she can't believe it.
"What did he say?"
"He said that he really like my singing and that he wants to work with me. He is trying to form a band." She smiles the biggest smile ever. I'm going to miss her smile. I smile back. Then my smile faded because I know what's coming next.
"He also said he wants to fly me out to England to work and record. He wants me to fly out June 2nd." I can see her smile falling into a frown.
"Wha-what?" I nod "but it's May 29th" she looks at my clock. "May 30th now."
"I know." Tears fall from her eyes and mine also. She gets up and she is mad. "Why are you angry?"
"I'm not I just need time to think." She walk out of my room with me following her.
"What's wrong sweetheart?" My mom ask Lexie realizing that I just told her. "Oh Niall told you." She turns to look at me with hurtful eyes.
"So I'm not the only one who knows. I thought you would have told me first." Tears are rolling down her cheeks.
"I would have but-"
"But what?"
"There was never a right time." I admit. Then I see her grab her put on her shoes and coat and walk out the door. "Where ya' going? Lexie!" I run out after her.
"I'm leaving!" She runs. I run after her.
"Niall!!!" Greg and my father yelled after me. I hear footsteps running up behind me. I feel a strong hand grab my wrist. It slows me down a little and I stumble but quickly run again. Next thing I know I am tackled to the ground and Greg is over me.
"Let her go Ni, let her go. She has to cool off." He tells me. I don't want to let her go I want to spend summer with her I want to spend my life with her. I know I'm only eighteen but it's true. When I get up and try to run again he just pulls me back. We are both walking to the house and I take one last look and she is gone. My heart is broken tears start rolling down my face. I know I had to tell her I just didn't want it to be this way.
When Greg and I enter our house my parent try to talk to me but I walk up and go right to my room. I lay on the floor and cry. I cry for about 30 minutes nonstop. I get up an take a shower. I walk back to my room and walk back out. There are way too many memories in there. I walk to the guest bedroom and lay down and cry more. I slowly cry myself to sleep. My heart is literally broke.
LEXIE'S POV
I can't believe he didn't tell me. He's know since Friday. I understand why he didn't tell me on Friday but he should have told me sooner. I am mad, frustrated, disappointed, and heartbroken. I walk in my home and I know my mom is asleep so I walk upstairs and cry. I have never cried that much in my life. Not even when my birth father threw me across the room. I am on the floor crying my eyes out. The next thing I know light is coming through my window and I'm on the floor in the same clothes as yesterday. Memories come into my mind and I remember what happened and I cry some more.
All I did that day was cry. My mom came and checked on me from time to time and brought me food, but I didn't eat. I just laid on my floor and cried. I'm still heartbroken. Soon it was nighttime and I fell asleep. That was my day one.
