Ellen’s POV
I smiled really big and turned around…I was stunned to see some guy I’ve never seen before in my life.
“Are you Ellen?” he asked me.
“Um, yes I am,” I replied.
“I’m Nolan, Niall’s best friend from high school.” He told me.
“Ok and what does that have to do with me?” I was so confused, but I knew something was up.
“Niall can’t be here tonight. A family thing came up. He didn’t want to just text you, so he sent me. He says he is really sorry and wants to meet up with you when the tour is over.” He explained with wide eyes and a sad face. He must have seen the hurt on my own face.
I thought about his words for a moment then I replied to him, “Well Nolan. You can tell Niall that I don’t wish to see him when he finishes the tour, or ever to be truthful. Oh and tell him to never try to contact me again.” I huffed. I had never been so angry in my life. How could he do this? I waited two years, and now he thinks he can just cancel like that.
“Ellen, he is really sorry. I know him, and he was so upset when he called me and asked me to do this.” He said.
He went on and on about how sorry Niall was and what a good guy he is. He tried to his best to defend him but it was no use. I wasn’t even listening anymore.
“Save your breath Nolan. Do me a favour and tell Niall that he can shove it.” I announced and walked out of the park. I could hear Nolan shouting my name as I walked away.
Nolan ran up to me and turned me around. “Listen” he said. “Niall isn’t going to give up on you that easily. You are all he has talked about the last two years. He really didn’t want to cancel. He mother invited all of his family over for his last night in Ireland.” It felt like he was just rambling now.
“Listen to me Nolan, listen good. No matter what you say right now, I will never forgive Niall for this, got that?” I got into my car, slammed the door and drove away. I needed to go home.
--
I knocked on the door, and Annabel came running. She saw my face and knew something wasn’t right. She pulled me into a big hug and we went inside. I don’t know what I would do without her sometimes.
“What happened El?” she asked, very concerned.
I explained everything to her, and that is when it all hit me. I started to cry, and cry. I told Nolan that I never wanted to speak to Niall again. It all started to feel like a mistake. Everything I said to Nolan was out of anger, not what I really felt inside. I was angry with Niall, for sure. But I wasn’t ready to give up on us yet.
I cried myself to sleep. I might have just ruined everything Niall and I could be…
