Torn (a Niall Horan Fanfiction) ~On Hold~

Chapter 6 - Is This Jelousy?

 

     Veronica's P.O.V.

      

    When I woke up, I hit the gym at 7AM, and then went back to the appartment and showered. I would always go to the gym in the morning, but not because I wanted to be thin like a model or something. I went because it helped me relax and feel good, plus if I wanted to stay healthy I should really stay in shape considering how much I ate!

     After the shower, I was going to eat because I was starving already! But then I got a text from Josh, where he asked me to go out and have breakfast with him. I oviously couldn't resist and accepted. I quickly pullled on a black skirt and a white tanktop, put on my straight hair wig, did my make up, and I was ready to go.

     I didn't want anyone to know where I was staying, to keep my secret identity as safe as possible, so I told Josh I would meet him anywhere he wanted to go. He told him to meet him at some place named Nando's so I took a taxi, and when i got there Josh was already outside waiting for me.

     "Hello love!" he greeted me with a cute smile that revealed his adorable dimples.

     "Hey! You ready to eat?" I replied.

     "Of course! Come this way." he led me to the restaurant entrance.

     When we got our table we both ordered quickly and chatted while waiting for our food.

     "So where do you come from?" He asked in that fascinating British accent. Which for some reason made me remember Niall's accent. Then I realized that they were different, maybe Niall wasn't British? I guess I would just have to ask him next time I bumped into him. Ugh why did I keep thinking about Niall?! Then I realized that Josh was still waiting for an answer. So I cleared my throat and spoke.

     "California. Its really nice, I love it over there, you should go visit sometime!" I finally replied.

     "Yeah maybe I will!" he grinned. "And if you love it so much then why did you come to London?"

     "Well you see, after my father's death I just felt like I needed to be in some place different, you know where I wouldn't be having constant remiders that he's not with me anymore." I lied, I mean its not like I was about to tell him that I came to take revenge on the man who murdered my dad!

     "Oh I'm sorry."

     "Don't be, I mean its no ones fault you know, he was just really sick." I lied once again knowing exactly who's fault it was, and it was no sickness. Just a sick man. The thought of this man made me feel anger burning inside of me, it was such a terrible feeling but I didn't want to cry so I held it in.

     "Well what about your mother?" Josh asked trying to make me feel better.

     "She and my sister... died. They had a terrible car accident just before my father's death." Remembering all of this made me feel even worse. It came to a point where I felt like I just couldn't hold it in anymore, and I finally broke down.

     "Oh gosh I'm so sorry!" Josh quickly came to my side and hugged me. It was a warm embrace, kind of like the ones Amanda gave me. I finally calmed down a bit.

     "Thank you." I told Josh.

     "You know what? I had never seen someone look so beautiful even while crying." He said looking me in the eyes. His words made me blush.

     "Um thank you and I should probably go get cleaned up in the restroom now." With that said, I went to the restroom and cleaaned up.

     When I came back, the food was already on the table. It was about time, I was about to starve to death!
