Someday {Niall Horan}

Chapter 21: Three strikes, Youre out

Niall's POV

Yesterday, I told Emily that I loved her. I did, I really did. I knew that there was something about her since the day I met her. It's perfect right? She loves me, I love her back. I can't get her out of my mind, and I regret leaving her alone this morning. I swear if Zayn comes by her again... I will literally end his life. I'd take a knife, cut his body into a million pieces. Before I left I made sure that Emily looked at all her surroundings while she was in the lobby, as if she were crossing the street.

As I walk through the hallway with my morning coffee, the office seems different. It quiet, maybe a bit too quiet. It seems like ages since I last went to work. I made sure to take care of 'business' before coming here though, boy is Emily in for a surprise.

"Niall," a voice calls behind me and I turn around. I remember dating a few of my younger sister's friends a couple of years ago, but this one was my most serious girlfriend. It was Danielle.

"What do you want?" I ask. Why is she even here, I don't remember hiring her? She looked up at me, wearing her fancy office clothes.

"I heard you have a new girlfriend..." she says, what the fuck?

"And? Why do you care?" I ask. "Still haven't gotten over me?"

"I care because I'm happy for you." Okay...? "I can tell that she really likes you from what I saw, you really do make a great couple." Danielle is way too nice, that's probably why we didn't work out. Emily on the other hand is kind, but can curse and defend herself whenever she needs to.

"Okay...? Thank you, I guess." I'm not too sure what to say to her. She's okay I guess, but she's not exactly my type. Emily has everything on my checklist.

"Oh, and don't worry. You don't have to worry about me, I have a boyfriend too." Really? I'm surprised, yet not at the same time. She was a pretty kind girl, I don't understand why she's friends with my sister...

"Really, you have a boyfriend? What's his name, maybe I know him?" I bet she's dating some fucking weird scholar, lawyer, or some other person with a job that I would hate to have.

"His name's Augustus, actually. He's a really nice guy, we've been together for a few months," she explains, but I grow bored. What the hell type of name is that? She always talks too much about things only smart people would know, I'm definitely not very smart.

"Augustus? What is he, a Greek god?" I ask. Really, what's with that name. Does every parent just have a child and goes Oh, I'm going to name my child Augustus. Then, I'll name my next child Apollo.

"Shut up!" she yells playfully. "You think his name's weird, Niall's normal right?" I laugh because it's true. I hold my middle finger up at her and she turns away. "I'll maybe see you later," she says before walking away. Now, I wait for Emily.

Emily's POV

As I walk out of the bus to the front of the building, I thank the bus driver. Thank god I didn't run into Zayn this morning. Niall left me alone, the same way that he did when I almost got kidnapped. I walk into the office and close the door behind me, the office seems irregularly quiet. It feels like ages since the lat time I was here. When I approach my dressing room, I see Niall waiting for me. His familiar blue eyes look stunning as he leans in to peck a kiss at my lips.

"Good morning beautiful," he says. I can't get the memory of him yesterday out of my mind. He told me that he loved me, the way I waited a week for him to say.

"Good morning," I answer while opening the door to my dressing room. "Do I have any work to do today?"

"Yes," he says. "Actually, you have two shoots and some paper work, if that's okay with you." I haven't done that much work in what seems like weeks, but I guess that's supposed to be a normal amount of work.
