Leave Me [h.s] (On hold)

Chapter 6

Chaper 6- How long

-Harry's POV-

Amber sped down the two lane road, the radio playing a song by My Chemical Romance at an ear shattering volume. Her perfume stunk up the entire car and I felt like gagging. There's a fine line between smelling good and wearing way too much perfume. Amber had most certainly crossed that line. I didn't hear my phone ringing over the music, but I did feel it vibrating in my pocket. I pulled it out and turned the music all the way down.

"Hey Niall." I said, turning my head towards the window.

"What the hell do you think you're doing? I'm giving you a ride in my car. Therefore, you are forced to enjoy my music." Amber said and turned the music back up a little. I just rolled my eyes.

"Niall?" I said into my phone.

"Who was that in the background? Did you actually find Noelle?" Niall asked, sounding drowsy.

"No. But I found one of her foster sisters. Apparently Noelle is in the hospital... Her foster sister is giving me a ride there now."

"Well good for you mate." Niall slurred.

"Are you drunk Niall?" I asked. Why the hell would he be drinking at noon?

"Just a bit mate. I left that shitty hotel and checked into a five star on about a hundred miles from where you ditched me. They have a bar. So I figured why not grab a few drinks?" He mumbled.

"Uh maybe because you're only 18?" I told him. It's not like he's never had a drink before, but I thought at a five star hotel they might ask for ah I.D.

"I had some old dude buy it for me of course. How stupid do you think I am?" He laughed loudly.

"Well I apologize for underestimating you. I should probably be back soon enough to have a drink with you." I told him, but I didn't believe what I was saying. I was about to see my Noelle. Who the hell knows what was going to happen.

"Don't lie to me. And also don't sacrifice anything for me. If you want to stay with this girl, you do it. You can't let love like that go mate." He whispered.

"I already told you, I'm not in love with her. Why are you whispering?" I asked.

"I wasn't. What the hell are you talking about?"

"Nothing. I'm gonna hang up now okay?"

"Alright. Bye."

"Bye." I said and put my phone back into my pocket.

"So who was that?" Amber asked me over the music.

"My friend Niall." I told her. "Are we going to be there soon?" I wanted more than anything to get out of this car full of perfume.

"About 10 minutes away. So this Niall guy thinks you're in love with Noelle?" Amber inquired.

"He's pretty convinced."

"Well whatever girl you knew when you guys were 15, she's probably pretty different now. Something you and I know very different people."

"I bet you're right."

"So um what color was her hair when you knew her?" She asked.

"Dirty blonde? Why?" I answered.

"Well as of yesterday it's hot pink. Actually looks good on her."

"And why are you telling me this?"

"I don't know. I'm trying to avoid the inevitable awkward silence." She said.
