Torn

Chapter 6

It was the day after the worst day of my life, or what seemed to be. I grabbed my iPhone from my dresser, it was 11:26am and I had the worst headache ever. Had I been drinking? I threw my phone on my bed then walked to the kitchen, hoping there was something to eat.

"Hey babe." I heard an Irish accent greet me from the kitchen, startling me. It was Niall. Had he stayed over??

"H-hey," I replied, him noticing the confused look on my face, "What happened Niall? I'm sorry I just don't remember anything that happened last night.." I sighed.

"Nothing bad, Ley, just had couple drinks last night." He explained as I eyed the food that was on the table. "You let me stay over since we were so drunk, so I decided to make you breakfast."

I sat down in the seat, I had no idea Niall was a cook. But there was a question still bothering me, " N-Niall, did we... kiss, yesterday?" I look down, not being able to make eye contact. I didn't know how to feel. I loved Niall, he made me feel so happy, I felt different with him, but what about my feelings towards Harry? Besides, I knew Valerie truly liked him, or so she said. She might be dating Harry knowing my feelings towards him, but I couldn't do the same to her.

"Yeah, but nothing else Leyla," He cupped my chin making me look up at him," Why did you not want that?" His puppy eyes looking down at me.

I looked away, afraid of his reaction," I-I don't know, Niall. I don't remember so I wouldn't be able to give you an answer, but I just...." I trailed off, not knowing how to explain to him. He was a great guy, but the one I loved was Harry... or so I think.

He look of disappointment flashed over his face. "Its okay, I'm sorry for kissing you Ley, I shouldn't of. Let's just forget about this yeah?"

"Sure," we began to eat the breakfast he had made for us in silence. My phone buzzed a couple moments after, and I looked to see it was from Twitter. I opened the notification and sighed.

@Leyla_x I hope you rot in hell you cheating bitch!

@Leyla_x Val doesn't deserve a friend like you! her & harry are happy together so just leave them alone you whore lol!!!

I scrolled through the mentions I had, the hate never ending. I threw my phone at the table, trying not to cry.

"What's wrong Ley??" Niall brushed my arm. I looked at my phone, then he understood what was happening right away. He looked through my mentions, his eyes widening at some tweets. He probably thought the people were right, I mean what kind of friend does that.

"It's all my fault" I slumped down in my seat.

"Ley, not it's not... I believe you, that always happens 'accidentally' with our fans." he air quoted. He grabbed is blackberry from the counter then did a couple typing.

My iPhone dinged, announcing I had a new mention.

@NiallOfficial: Please leave @Leyla_x alone, she is a lovely girl, everything is all a misunderstanding Xx

I smiled as I read the tweet.

"Thank you so much Nialler, I don't know what I would do without you" I hugged him tightly as he comforted me. He was sincerly one of the greatest guys anybody could know.

"No problem babe, if you need to talk about anything, I'll be here," he smiled and pressed a kiss to my forehead, " also, I was wondering if you'd like to come along with me to the party tonight? "

"What party?" I asked confused.

"I'm guessin' Val didn't tell you. Er there's a party tonight at the hotel were staying at, i'm not quite sure what it's for but a lot of well known people will be there."

"Yeah, of course I'd love to go!"

"Okay I'll pick you up at 7:30," He hugged me then grabbed his phone off the table and left.

I pulled on my black pumps then looked at myself in the mirror. I wore a strapless silver dress and my hair was loosely curled. I hadn't applied to much make up, just enough to finish my look. The door bell rang and I answered it to see Niall standing out side.

"Wow, you look amazing," Niall gaped, making me blush." We should go the band is waiting for us already." Niall grabbed my hand and led me to his car. I don't know what had happened between us, but I felt my stomach turn as his soft hand touched mine.

Leyla remember, we're just friends.

"Leyla!" I turned around to see no one other than Harry approaching me. This won't be good.

"Whats up? I asked asked him sipping my drinking.

"We need to talk, " He mumbled in my ear, grabbing my elbow, trying to pull me aside.

"No we don't," I said firmly. I couldn't talk to Harry yet. I hadn't been forgiven by Valerie yet, and I didn't want to do anything jeopardize our friendship again.

"YOU!" I heard a screech from not to far away. Valerie. " What are you doing here?!"

"I came with Niall," I shurgged.

"Did you forget what you did to me?!?!" She said her eyes burning right through me. "Just leave you man stealer!"

"Valerie, don't just forg-" I cut off Harry trying to calm down Valerie.

"What? So I can't hang out with my friends because you asume that I'm hear to steal your boyfriend? You know what Val, I'm not like that. I don't just date or try to get with the guy my best friend loves." I spat out. Val knew exactly what I meant.

"Don't you dare get near me or my boyfriend again!" My face went cold as a hand struck my cheek, making me face jolt to the side.

"Woah Val, calm down!!" Niall had rushed to our spot and tried to calm her down. "Harry, you should just take her home."

Harry nodded in agreement and then left with Valerie. Niall had walked me over to a private table trying to calm me down, since I was so close to tears.

"Niall, I'm so sorry," I blinked trying to stop my tears from streaming down my face. " I didn't know things would turn out like this. I'm probably making a whole scandal for you and Harry."

" Leyla, its alright, it's not your fault. We all make mistakes and everybody should be forgiven. But if your best friend doesn't see that then she's not much of a a best friend is she? Niall was now sitting down with me, his arm over my shoulder.

"When did things get so messed up Niall??" I looked up into his blue eyes.

He pushed my hair back before saying," Before this..." He leaned in, closed to my face, our lips just a few inches a part. I then pushed in, meeting my lips with his. What are you doing Leyla?? Stop it. You love Harry The voices in side my head kept yelling for me to stop , however I didn't listen. It all felt so magical, like I was dreaming. I openede my eyes, and from the corner of my eyes I saw a figure had been watching us kiss. Oh no, not another paparazzi. I didnt want to be known as the girl that was hooking up with one direction. I pulled away from Niall, not sure how i felt about us kissing. I looked to where I what I thought the paparazzi was standing, then I realized something. It wasnt a paparazzi who had been watching us kiss, it was Harry Styles.
