Niall Horan Imagines

Selfish (Request)

"You're being selfish," I scoffed, acknowledging my red ears. That always happened when I was angry.

"I'm being selfish?" he laughed humorlessly. I raised my eyebrows at him, putting my hands on my hips.

"You are always asking 'does this dress make me look fat?' or 'what do you think of my new haircut?' just so you can get me to tell you how beautiful you are!" he yelled back at me, emphasizing all of the you's to make his point.

I tried focusing on the part where he called me beautiful, but I was too mad at the rest of the statement.

"I hate you!" I exclaimed, not being able to think of a better comeback. I felt like I was about to cry, but he was on fire with his point and wouldn't accept my apology, and I knew that.

"You hate me, now?" he scoffed, teasing me. I felt hot tears dance down my cheeks as I made sure my phone was in my pocket.

I started towards the door, choking on air.

"Yesterday you said you loved me, and now you're leaving?" he continued. I turned to glare at him, but I just pouted.

"I'll be back," I shrugged, done with holding my ground. He looked concerned for a second. but then picked it back up again.

"Really?" he asked, staring at me as I walked out the door into the cool, fall air.

I continued down the streets of London, wiping up my tears as I trudged along.

I had heard a lot about gangs and shootings in the area, but I had forgotten about it all that night.

"Hey," someone called from behind me. A man stepped out of the shadows of an alley between two buildings.

"Can you help me?" he called, sniffling. "My friend hurt their leg, and I need to help them get inside," he told me. I nodded quickly, hurrying after him as we ran back to the end of the alley. Another guy was standing there, smirking at me.

"Is this him?" I wondered, glancing at the other guy. When I realized how far away from being safe I was, I was too late.

"Shut up," the first guy spat, shoving me into the wall of the building to my left.

"Hold her down," he told the second guy. My heart started to race, and I thought I was really going to die.

I screamed as loud as I could, but I knew it was no use when the first one kicked me right in the stomach, making my insides feel like Play-Doh.

"What are you going to do to me?" I sobbed, staring up at the first guy while the other one held my arms back behind me.

"What I do to all women," he chuckled darkly. "Destroy them, one way or another." My stomach, or what was left of it, dropped.

He punched me once in my nose, and I shrieked, squirming under the second one's grip. He moved the tiniest bit, and I wriggled from his grasp, taking off back down the alley.

They grabbed me once again before I could escape the jaws of the two buildings. They growled at me like the dogs they were.

"Let's just take her," the first one breathed, spitting on my shoes.

They led me to the car right outside the alley, parked halfway on the curb. My nose was bleeding, and I felt like barfing, but nothing could have made me feel better in that moment than what I saw.

"Hey!" I heard Niall bellow. I turned my head before I got shoved into the car, seeing Liam, Zayn and Niall (a/n and don't think Harry and Louis are the bad guys, no no) all run up to us.

"Who are you?" the first one asked, throwing me into the car.

"I would say your worst nightmare, but you won't even dare to dream after me," Niall growled, clenching his fists.

"How dare you-" Niall kicked him in the crotch, making him double over for half a second, but long enough for Niall to kick his head to the ground and knock him out.

The second one went at Liam, but he wasn't even phased. He deflected his punch, knocking him in the jaw, and then taking his head in his hands and smashing them together. It looked like it hurt for both of them, but Liam stood tall as the second one crumpled to the ground, sputtering nonsense.

"Are you okay?" Niall asked me, coming over to me. I nodded, smiling at him.

"I'm sorry about earlier," I sighed, shaking my head. "I'm the selfish one."

He smiled back at me.

"We can all be selfish," he shrugged, hugging me carefully.

"Now let's call the police and get you cleaned up."
