Senior year was interesting, but this day was one of the highlights.
Niall had just really became my best friend, and we were still learning a lot about each other.
"And then she poured the sauce into her bra!" he exclaimed, sending me into hysterical fits of laughter. The bell rung, and I was still laughing, walking to my next class.
The hall was mostly empty because not many people had a class on the lowest floor at that period. I walked around the corner, seeing two people snogging against the wall. I pulled open the door to the classroom, glancing back at them.
When I saw who it was, I almost exploded in rage, but the weight also came with it.
It was Niall's girlfriend.
.
The next class period I had with him was choir at the end of the day, and I sat down next to him, my palms sweating with the knowledge I had. It was bursting from every pore, yearning to make its way through his.
"Niall," I called a little loudly, swallowing the words anxiously. He grinned at me as I sat down next to him.
"I saw your girlfriend kissing someone else," I whispered close to him.
"Ha ha," he laughed jokingly. "Very funny." He half-turned away from me, but then he saw that I wasn't smiling.
"I'm not joking," I told him, feeling the heart in my chest slow down. He breathed out harshly, leaning close to me.
"I know that you can get jealous, but I didn't think you would be this desperate," he spat. My heart immediately jumped to a million beats per minute, making my face flush with heat.
"Niall, I'm-" I tried to say again.
"Find a different seat," he growled, turning away from me. I held back the tears, not even daring to stay in that classroom any longer. He would be even more angry if I sat in there and cried. So I sat in the bathroom and cried.
.
It was September 13th, and he still hadn't talked to me, or even looked at me, for that matter. I was deeply upset, trying to convince myself that I had done the right thing.
I went home that day, and from all of the thoughts of that and all of the stress, I cried. My phone started ringing, and I walked over to it, my eyes widening when I saw that it was Niall.
"Hello?" I called softly.
"Hey, Lindsey. It's Liam." Liam was one of Niall's friends, and I sighed out, slightly thankful.
"Hi," I let out, sitting back down on my bed.
"Come to my house in half an hour and tell my mom that I sent you. I'll be there three minutes later because of football practice. I wanted to talk to you about Niall. Harry, Louis and Zayn will be there, too," he explained to me. I couldn't get a word in at all.
"I'll text you the address. See you then," he hung up before I could ask anything I wanted to. A few seconds later, the address to his house popped up.
My mouth was left ajar, shaking my head.
So in that half an hour, I made sure I didn't look like I was a train wreck, and I found out his house was fifteen minutes out of town.
I told my mom I was going to Melody's house to study, so she took me there.
"Call me when you're done, honey," she smiled as I stepped out of the car. I walked to the decent sized house, ringing the doorbell.
"Hi," his mom smiled. "Can I help you?" I smiled back, clenching my fists.
"Liam sent me," I told her, watching her nod in understanding.
"The other three are already here," she told me, leading me into a living room. Harry, Louis and Zayn all looked at me, smiling. I sat down on the armchair adjacent to the couch they occupied. A few seconds later, Liam walked in.
"Let's go to my room," he suggested, and we did. I stood in the corner by his dresser as they sat down on the bed.
"Let me show you something," Liam spoke, gesturing for me to follow him back out of the room. I furrowed my eyebrows, wondering what the heck was going on.
"Look," he smiled at me, opening a closet door. I came around to the front of it, seeing that it was pretty big, and then seeing Niall sitting against the corner.
"Lindsey?" he wondered, uncrossing his legs. I started to speak when Liam shoved me into the closet, slamming the door behind me.
"Oh my gosh," I breathed out, feeling claustrophobic immediately.
"Hi," he spoke, standing up to meet my eyes. I could barely see him, and then he pulled a string, turning on the bulb above us.
"What are we doing here?" I wondered, trying to be as far away from him as possible, knowing it's what he would want.
"The guys saw my girlfriend kissing that guy, too." I froze, squinting at him. Was he lying?
"I asked her myself, and she confessed," he shrugged, staring at his feet. I chewed on the inside of my cheek.
"I'm sorry," I whispered, feeling bad for him. I'd never been cheated on, but I guessed it sucked.
"No, I'm sorry," he sighed, looking up at me. "I didn't believe you." I shook my head.
"You didn't have any reason to," I told him. He smiled lightly at me.
"I should have given you a chance," he said lightly. He came closer to me as if we weren't already almost touching.
"And it's my birthday," he shrugged, smiling. I smiled back, glad that something felt relatively normal again. His close proximity was throwing his heat at me, making me blush.
"You didn't tell me. What do you want for your birthday?" I wondered, blinking up at him. He inhaled in fragments, furrowing his eyebrows at himself, and then sounding like what he said was news to both of us.
"You," he exhaled, making my body freeze. I stayed exactly where I was, afraid any movement would mess something up.
"It's been a few weeks since I broke up with her, and I was thinking about you a lot. I realized how wonderful and kind you are. How beautiful you are," he spoke, whispering the last phrase.
"Thank you," I breathed out, feeling something new run through my veins. He placed a hand on my waist, and fear was no longer my emotion.
"If you could give me a chance, maybe it could make up for the one I didn't give you," he spoke, barely audible, even so close to me.
All I could do was nod before he pursued what he wanted -- me -- by pressing his lips to mine. And I was more than willing to give him a chance.
