I WANNA BE WITH YOU

CHAPTER 17: I WANNA BE WITH YOU

SCARLETTS POV:

I woke up to darkness. The whole room was set in a blue tone and Niall was on the edge of the bed with his hands on his forehead hunched over. I pretended to be asleep when he took his phone from the night stand. I can hear him type in a number and then press talk. When I heard his voice it frightened me. He was so, threatening. 

“Harriet, Get the fuck out of my life. I don’t need you. I never needed you. I have the most beautiful girl with me now and you are ruining everything. Just because you can’t have it your way doesn’t mean you can destroy something perfect. I love her, not you. So stay away.” And then I heard his finger hit the end button. I pretended like I just woke up and put my hand on his bare back. He looked over at me, his eyes calm but puffy red. He laid back down next to me with his hand on my cheek. I felt a tear roll down my face and he wiped it away. Its amazing how we know what each other is saying when we don’t exchange words. We just know. 

He got closer to me. So close I couldn’t feel any space between us. He rolled on top of me, feeling his hand down to the bottom of my t-shirt. Sex in the morning? Nah. I pushed him away and got on top of him, I whispered in his ear “I can’t.” He pouted, smushing his lips to mine once more. 

“You are just too irresistible.” He said getting up from the bed. 

After we got dressed Niall told me we were heading for Massachusetts today, Boston to be exact. I heard it’s nice there. We packed up our things, and put our bags near the door. I grew fond of this hotel, I really loved that huge window I sat by.. But another day a new adventure. 

We were on the road, only 3 hours until we would get to Boston so I decided to hang out with Shane in the other tour bus. 

“Shane. I miss you.” I said sitting down on the red couch. He laid on the bed throwing a ball up and down. “I miss you to Scarlet. But i’ve been hearing things from the boys and the news. Whats going on?” He stopped tossing the ball and looked over at me. “I’m f-fine Shane.” I stuttered. I’m so sick of thinking about it. I just wish everything would just go away. I just want everything to be normal again. Shane and I talked about everything from what he did with the boys the last day and whatnot. He seems to have more fun than i’m having, but that’s good. He deserves it. He never really had guy friends. 

We got to Boston and we arrived in front of the hotel. The hotel was huge. The rooms were old fashioned, the chandeliers hung from every room with the floral wallpaper. It felt like I was in a dream, that’s how beautiful it was. I peaked out the window to see all the fans outside holding signs. Some were funny, some were very inappropriate, some were.. well plain weird. I smiled at one that said “Nilet Supporter.” I guess that’s our ship name. Niall came behind me, and I could feel his eyes on my smile. He waved to all of the fans outside and they all started singing one of the songs off their albums. People like that make me realizes not all the fans are bad, some of them are the best.

Later on that night Niall and the other boys decided they wanted to go down to the club. I followed them down in my long sleeve black dress with black leggings and black heels. I felt like covering up, i’m so sick of low cut dresses and showing off my legs. I just want to be the old me again. 

We got in and Niall started dancing with me, beer in hand. He only drank a few and it barley hit him. If I drank one I would have been cocked. I kissed Niall on the cheek and told him I was going to the back of the bar to ask the DJ to put one of his songs on, he would have loved that. It was so dark and lights were flashing everywhere. All of a sudden I feel someone grab my arm. It was a man, he was tall with black hair slicked back. “Hey babe, wanna come with me?” I looked at him disgusted, and spit back at him “No, excuse me.” When I walked away he didn’t let go. I felt his hand go across my mouth and I started screaming, no one could hear me because of the music. He shoved me on the floor and ripped my dress off. I struggled and struggled until I felt a needle go through my leg. Everything was turning foggy, and all I can hear is the sound of Niall filling the room. He’s here. He’s going to save me. But then everything went black.
