Life Saver(Niall Horan)

Chapter 7- The text

Harry's POV

After we abruptly left the cafe, we all went to my house.

*two hours later*

"God, they've been ages!" Zayn said, peering at his phone for the time.

"They've got a lot to talk about, maybe Niall will come home with a girlfriend!" I said waggling my eye brows.

"Hopefully!" Liam came in from the kitchen with drinks. "If our plan has worked!" He set them down on the code table.

We all sat down in silence before Louis stood up.

"I'm bored! Let's call them!"

"Yeah! See how the dates going!" I pulled my phone out and searched for Nialls number.

"Aha! Here." I pressed the call button and liam shook his head disapprovingly.

"You guys need to give them some privacy!"

"Shhhhhhhhhhh!" We all turned to him and he held his hands up in defeat.

"Er, hello." Niall said in a low voice.

"How's is going mate!" I said enthusiastically.

"Oh, I just dropped her off and I'm just on my way back." He said, not answering. My question.

"Cool! How did it go?" Louis piped in.

"Oh, you're on speaker. Hey guys!"

Everyone replied a 'hi'

"Right, so how did it go?"

"I'll talk when we get back, I can't really hear you!" He replied, unsteadily.

"Ok, see ya, by the way we're in my flat." I ended the call, locked my phone and then turned to face the lads.

"Something's up" I said scrunching up my face.

"Maybe he's just too embarrassed to talk about his new girlfriend!" Zayn said, pulling a kissy face.

"Yeah you're probably right!"

After about ten minutes we heard a light knock at the door. Everyone jumped up from there seat and stood in the hall, I opened the door with an over exaggerated grin on my face.

"NIALL AND COURTNEY SITTING IN A TREE. DOING STUFF THEY SHOULDNT BE, STARTS WITH S ENDS IN X OMG THEYRE HAVING-" louis sang, galloping towards the door, before Niall cut him off.

"No, Louis." Niall kept his head facing the floor, but we could see it was red. Somthing had happened, he looked pained. We all sat there in silence, not knowing what to say or ask. I always find it hard in awkward situations so...

"I'm just going, erm, to erm..." I looked around for inspiration. The tv was still on and as I looked a particular advert was on... It had to be on then. "Go and get some... Er... Tampons! The advert has convinced me!" I nervously laughed and shook my head to myself, realising what a twat I must have sounded.

"Tampons?" Zayn said frowning.

"Mate, you're a dude!" Louis whispered.

"I know, I know maybe Courtney would like some!" I smiled at Niall and then remembered why I was in this mess, the awkward situation, because something had happened between Niall and Courtney which wasn't good... Oops. Niall shook his head at me looking hurt and rubbed his shoulder before leaving the apartment and slamming the door shut.

"Well done styles!" Liam said groaning whilst getting up. "I'm gonna go see him, you all stay here, ok?"

We all nodded and Liam disappeared behind the door, everyone gave me strange looks.
