I woke up suddenly, from having a nightmare. I checked my watch on my wrist. It was 3:00 a.m. Niall was still sleeping, but he was moving a lot and twitching his eyes. I un-wrapped his arms from me, and quickly snuck into the guest’s room, trying not to make a sound. I opened the door, quickly turned the light on, and ran and jumped on the bed. I was still scared from the nightmare, so I felt like there was a boogey man underneath the bed. Yes, I know that is stupid. But, I have my fears too… I pulled the sheets over me and lay down, with my eyes wide open, just staring into space, re-thinking about my nightmare. I suddenly heard a creak coming from outside the room. WHAT THE HELL WAS THAT?! I thought. I quickly pulled my head under the covers, because that was the only thing I could think of. What was I supposed to do? Run out of the room? Might as well hold up a sign saying ‘KILL ME NOW’. I crunched up my body, just like how a butterfly would do in a cocoon, and kept hiding under the covers. I could feel the creature coming inside the room, or whatever it is. I saw the shadow, and closed my eyes tight, hoping it would go away. Suddenly the thing yelled and clutched onto my waist. “AHH!” I screamed. “What the hell?” It said. Wait! It wasn’t an ‘it’! It was Niall! He pulled the sheets off of me. “What’s wrong?!” He yelled. “Oh… umm…. This is awkward… I had a nightmare, so I came into this room, and I thought you were a creature. But you’re not! So that’s good…” I said awkwardly, while raising my eyebrows. Probably looking stupid too... Niall chuckled, smiling at me. “Wow, I look pretty stupid, don’t I?” I said laughing. “Aha, no you don’t, just the thought of me being a creature was hilarious in my imagination.” I laughed. “Only you Niall…” I said smiling. “What do you know? I’m one of a kind!” He said smiling brightly, hands on his hips trying to look like superman or something. “Yeah…” I said, patting his shoulder. He grabbed my hand, and pulled me out of the bed. He kissed my forehead. “Let’s go back inside.” He said. I followed behind him as we walked into the living room. “What’s going on?” Said Harry, rubbing his eyes and yawning. He looked very tired. He was also in his boxers… Lovely… “Nothing, Julie had a nightmare.” Said Niall yawning as well. You know what they say! Yawning is contagious! Ha ha. “Cool.” Said Harry, looking as if he were going to fall asleep, while standing. I think I was the only one wide awake. Niall and I sat on the couch. While Harry just stood there with his eyes closed, leaning against the wall. “I gotta use the loo (bathroom).” Niall said. He got off the couch, and headed to the bathroom. “Can I sit?” Asked Harry. “Of course!” I replied. Harry walked slowly over to the couch, but suddenly fell over. I think he is half asleep or something! I ran over to him and helped him up. “You don’t have to stay up, I can take you back to your room.” I said. “No, it’s okay, I’ll just sit on the couch.” I helped him sit on the couch, as I took a seat as well. “So, what time did you go to bed at?” I asked. “Right after the movie ended.” He replied. “Weren’t you drinking a lot of beers?” “Yeah, I think…” He replied looking confused. “Explains everything…” I said. Harry was obviously a little drunk. Explained why he was so tipsy, even though he’s tired. “So…” Said Harry putting his arm around me. “What do you see in Niall? I mean, he’s a great friend and everything, but so am I.” “I know you are, but Niall is like my world. He makes me happy.” Harry smiled. “Thank you for helping me with my fall.” He said smiling, cheekily. “No problem,” I replied. “You’re awesome, Julie.” I smiled. Harry was so sweet! Even though I’m dating Niall, I still feel like I’m a fan of One Direction. I still love all of them a lot. But I love Niall the most. Harry looked behind him, and back to me. He moved closer to me. Then suddenly, he leaned closer to me… What was he doing?! He closed his eyes, and kissed my lips. STOP JULIE! I thought to myself. I was in shock, I couldn’t move back, even though I wanted to a lot. Niall walked in, and I suddenly went out of shock and pulled away. “What are you doing?!” Yelled Niall. His face was all red, eyebrows were frowning and his eyes were filling up with tears. I looked to the ground, and back up at Niall. I could feel his pain just looking at him. What have I done? I feel like crap! A tear streamed down his face. “It’s cool man… It was nothing.” Said Harry. “It was nothing!” I yelled. “He’s drunk from the movie, I swear I don’t have feelings for him, I only love you. I didn’t move back because I was in shock, I swear to god Niall, please just please, don’t cry…” I bursted into tears, regretting everything that happened after Niall went to the bathroom. “Don’t!” Yelled Niall. He ran to his room and slammed the door. “So Julie…” Said Harry. “HARRY! ROOM. NOW!” Harry got up and walked to his room. I went to the guest room and shut the door. 2 minutes later, there was a knock on the door. I wiped my tears and yelled, “Come in!” It was Liam. “Are you okay? I heard the fight, so did Louis. But Zayn slept through it.” He said. “I’m fine, but Niall isn’t.” I frowned. “I talked to Niall…” He said smiling. “He’s just in shock, he should be fine tomorrow.” “I hope so..” I said. Louis walked in. “Hey girl, don’t be sad, Nialler will be fine. Just don’t remind him about it, maybe he’ll think it was a dream tomorrow morning. And it wasn’t your fault, Harry was drunk and he kissed you! Don’t worry.” Louis said. “I can’t not worry, knowing Niall is upset.” I looked to the picture of him on my phone, as my eyes started watering. “Don’t cry!” Yelled Louis. “I’ll cry too!” I chuckled. “You always know how to cheer someone up Louis.” “Hey what about me?!” Said Liam. “You too Liam…” I said smiling. “YAY!” He said. “Guys, should I go talk to him?” I asked. “No!” They replied. “Never go to a guy when they’re not in the mood. It’ll make things worse. Trust me.” Said Louis. They walked out of the room, and headed to bed. I shut the lights off, and went to bed in the guest’s room. It was hard to fall asleep, thinking about Niall, but I ended up sleeping. I woke up, with my eyes all dry. I guess I cried in my sleep. Hmm… I hope Niall forgot about it. I didn’t change out of my PJ’s, I just walked outside of the room. I heard the boys cooking. Thank god, they were all in their PJ’s too, so I wasn’t the only one. Niall wasn’t in the kitchen. “Morning guys! Where’s Niall?” I asked. “Oh he’s still sleeping,” Zayn said. I sat on the couch, while watching Disney channel with Liam. Zayn, Louis and Harry were cooking breakfast, which I think is going to be Bacon and Eggs. Not sure… Niall walked out of the room, in his polka dot boxers and poured some orange juice into a cup. “Morning man,” Said Zayn. “Mornin” Niall replied. He sat on a stool that sat in front of their island counter in the kitchen. He didn’t look at me or Harry at all since last night. “Good morning Niall,” Harry said. Niall didn’t reply. “Hey Julie! Wanna help out with the breakfast?” Asked Louis. “Sure.” I said. I walked over to the kitchen, as Harry handed me an apron to put around my waist. I put it on. “Here, you can flip the bacon.” Said Zayn. The bacon started to sizzle, so I flipped it. It was done, so I put it on a plate, and set it on the table. The guys finished cooking the eggs, and I brought some orange juice and milk to the table, along with utensils and cups. “Breakfast is ready!” Yelled Harry. Liam and Niall came to the table and sat down. Niall totally ignored me, and sat on the other side of the table, beside Zayn and Louis. I sat next to Harry and Liam. “Could you pass the orange juice?” Harry asked Niall. Niall handed the orange juice to Harry, as Harry replied with a smile, as if to say ‘thank you’. We started eating. “Yum…” Said Niall. “This is good guys.” The guys smiled and replied with thanks. Niall stared at me and Harry. I wish Harry didn’t sit next to me, I think it just made the whole problem worse. “So,” I choked out. “Niall, how you like the bacon?” I asked. “It’s fine.” He said looking at his plate. “Awkward…” Said Louis. “Guys, what happened? It seems like a lot of stuff happened that I don’t know about.” Zayn said. We all sat silent playing around with our food. “Guys?” Said Zayn. “Harry and Julie kissed last night, okay? Are you done asking questions?!” Exclaimed Niall. My heart dropped. I started to cough, and drank some milk. “Wait, what?” Said Zayn. “Harry and I…” He cut me off. “No, I know, but why? I thought you and Niall were a thing…” “We were.” Said Niall. Were? I thought. I looked over at Harry. “Harry was drunk and he kissed me. I was in shock, and didn’t lean out of the kiss when Niall walked in.” Niall dropped his fork. “Here, let me help you with that.” I said to Niall. “No,” he said. He picked up his fork. “Niall, I swear, it didn’t mean anything, please Niall. Forgive me… You mean everything to me.” “If I meant everything to you, you wouldn’t have continued kissing him. But you did… And you can’t change that.” “Maybe I can’t change that, but that doesn’t mean that I don’t want to. Niall, you are my everything. I was stupid. I’ll do anything, just please forgive me.” I pleaded. “Anything? Okay, go back to the past and don’t kiss Harry!” “I would, if I could!” I said. “If you could…” He cut me off. “But you can’t.” He continued. I frowned looking down at my plate. “I’m done.” I said. I took my plate to the kitchen, washed my dishes and walked back to the table. “I’ll go pack.” I said. I went to my room and started packing up my stuff. That was it… Niall and I were officially done. I started tearing up, while packing, as there was a knock on the door…
