Finally Falling

Chapter 31

Niall's POV

~~~~~~~~~

I shrugged on my hoodie and shoved my hands into my pockets as I made my way to my car. It had become chilly and you could see little puddles on the ground from when it rained earlier. I had to admit I was a little sad. I didn't want Sam to be mad at me but I wanted her to have her space if she needed it. Maybe I could hang out with Louis, we always play FIFA when we're together. I turned and began walking towards him until I saw Marcel walk over to him with a wide smile. Of course he would be hanging out with Marcel, they were practically boyfriend and boyfriend even though they never made it official. I let out a sigh as I watched Marcel get in the car with Louis, giving him a quick kiss before they left campus. Well I guess their busy, maybe Zayn will be different.

I grabbed my phone and dialed his number. It went straight to voicemail. It's not like I was jealous, in fact I was happy when they told me about their relationships. It's just that I wished they wouldn't spend 24/7 with their boyfriends. I just want a day you know? Just one day where it's Zayn, Louis, and I throwing food at each other while playing FIFA, like old times. I walked back to my car since it was starting to rain again. I started the engine and the black mustang roared to life. I put the windshield wipers on and turned up some music from my phone as I turned into the busy streets. I relaxed in my seat and drove, trying to make my way home before it started to rain harder. I turned my head for a split second and saw Sam walking with her shoulders slouched. She had no umbrella so her hair was soaking wet.

I pulled up next to her and drove slowly .

" Sam, do you need a ride?" I ask as I open up the window.

" You don't have to Niall, I'll be ok."

" But I want to. Come on." I reply with a smile. She smiled and hopped into the car and I began driving again. I turned up the heat seeing her shiver slightly.

" Are you cold?"

" Yea but-"

Once we stopped at a red light I took off my jacket and handed it to her, leaving me in my white tank top.

" Niall...stop being so nice." Sam sighed.

" What are you talking about?"

" Niall I don't deserve this, I really don't. You should have left me out there in the rain. I was so mean to you today for absolutely no reason. Thank you for sticking up for me this morning and I'm sorry for snapping at you."

" First of all just because your mad at me, doesn't mean I'm going to stop caring for you ok? If I have a car and I see you walking out there in the rain then I'm going to offer a ride. And I forgive you, Marcel explained to me why you were mad and I get it. I'm sorry that your secret was let out like that." I reply with a smile as I grab her hand.

"Can we go to your house?" Sam asked.

" Sure."

~*~*~

" You can go change out of your wet clothes if you want to."

" Alright."

I hand Sam a blue shirt and gray sweatpants and leant against the doorframe.

" Aren't you going to let me change?" Sam asked with an arched brow as she pulled on the hem of her shirt.

" I'm not stopping you."

She gave me a look and I took that as a good enough reason to leave. I decided to get some snacks because I was actually really hungry.

" Alright...food." I mumbled as I searched through the cabinets looking for something to munch on. I finally found two bags of buttery popcorn and decided to just eat that while watching a movie.
