Affection | N.H

Chapter 17

( Life is short, break the rules. Forgive quickly. Kiss slwoly. Love truly. Laugh uncontrollably. And never regret anything that makes you smile." -Mark Twain."

I know, I know it is Taylor swift. Just think about what she said there. Not what she did to Harry. x)

"No Niall, you fucking haven't got the right to hurt someone like this every time. She is not one of the toys you play with." Harry's deep voice whispers but loud enough for me to hear. I keep my eyes shut and listen to the conversation nosily.

"Then what the fuck-" Niall pauses and brings his voice down before continuing, "What the fuck do I do? I am not giving her the chance I once gave to Nellie." Niall fights to keep his voice down as he speaks.

Who is Nellie?

"Dude, for fuck's sake!" Harry's voice comes out in rather a lot of frustration. I open my eyes slowly to find myself on my dorm bed. Why do I end up in this goddamn place everytime I run away from it?

Harry stands beside Sophie's bed with his arms crossed over his chest while Niall is sits on her bed, his head in his arms, both of them still unaware of my conciousness.

"Move on! Past is past! You cannot ruin your fucking life and let go of chances because of some stupid bitch who didn't deserve you Niall!" Harry sounds rather angry than usual. He is always the funny guy. Seeing this side of him scares me.

"Fucking keep your voice down. She is sleeping." Niall shushs Harry before resting his eyes on me. I quickly close my eyes and pretend to be asleep.

"See? Why do you care? You obviously have feelings for her Niall." Harry sighs. I wish I could see Niall's face right now. I want to see and hear him say if he actually feels anything for me.

"Harry, go away. You are annoying me now." Niall calmly says.

Without any further voices, I hear a door shut loudly. Harry is gone. It is once again me and him, alone.

I open my eyes for the second time and slowly sit up.

"Good afternoon." Niall smiles.

"What? It is afternoon already?" I start panicking. I missed out on the day again. What is happening in my life? This disorganised Tarisha is completely piculiar and unknown to me.

"It's just one day Tarish, calm down." Niall shrrugs.

"Exactly! It is one whole day-"

"God, stop wincing!" Niall groans.

Once again, I feel the lump forming at the back of my throat. Perhaps the girl Harry was convincing Niall about wasn't me because Niall doesn't even want to hear me talking. It was Sophie, yes it was her.

I zip my mouth and walk up to my closet. The weather outside is horrible today. I can hear the sky roaring and the randrops crashing against the window. Sweats will do.

..

After an hour, I am dressed up and my hair is washed and dried. I found Niall fast asleep on Sophie's bed when I came back from the showers. I think I have seen Niall use this room more than Sophie.

I think I should call Louis and collect all my absent work from him.

Louis.

No, shit. Louis. How could I do this to Louis? He must've been waiting for me at the dorms for a long time last night. He was probably expecting for me to come down and hop onto the car any minute. Louis said I was his friend. For the first time after Caitlin, I felt so close to someone and what did I do? I spent my night drinking shots while alcoholics danced around me.
