It Has To Be You

Can't It Wait Till Later?

As soon as I pulled into Emma's driveway, she bolted out the door and practically dragged me inside. "Explain everything. I need to hear every detail." she said. I sighed and asked her if I could just tell her in the morning. She shook her head. "NO. Tell me now. I need to know. I'm ready to blow." she complained.

I nodded and really just told her everything about me and Harry playing video games, Niall walking in on us kissing, Niall and I driving to Nandos, and what he said, and then us going back to Harry's. It wasn't really that important. But in some way, it was to me.

Emma gave me a big hug. "It's okay. Even if you do have feelings for Niall, it's normal." she said. I smiled. "Eleanor asked me what was wrong, but I didn't want her to be the first friend to know." I said. 

Emma laughed. "First friend? HA! I'm not just your friend, hunny. I'm way more than that." she said. It put a big smile on my face. And I guess that was the point. Emma always knew how to make someone smile. "So um.. does Harry know?" she asked. I looked down. "No. And if Niall does like me, and Harry found out? That'd be the end of their friendship." I said sadly. Emma sighed. "Well, a girl can only hope two hot guys in a band would like her." she said.

I glared at her. "Not the time to make jokes, Em. This is serious for me. I'm afraid that Niall might like me. Harry can't ever find out!" I said. She bit her lip. "But so what if Niall does like you? I mean, it's not like you're cheating on Harry. You don't like Niall back. Right?" she asked. I shrugged, doubting myself. "You know Emma, I'm not so sure don't." I answered. Emma sat back against her pillows and scanned the messages on her iPhone. 

"It's not the end of the world. Things change. People will just have to get over it. It being good or bad." she said assuringly. I sent my parents both a text saying that I was alive and fine and that I had totally forgotten to call them. I had to end the text with, I LOVE YOU, just to let them know I didn't forget about them completely.  

Emma and I fell asleep around three thirty AM and I hadn't texted Harry at all. But I was still wearing his purple Jack Wills sweatshirt.
