The Irish Lad: A One Direction Fan Fiction

Chapter 27

Niall's POV

Finally, Katie answered my Skype call. She got back to Dublin two weeks ago, and had not talked to me since. I had texted, called, and she never responded, and I was extremely confused. 

"Katie? Where the hell have you been?" I asked, and she looked at her lap. She looked as if she had been crying. "Wait, what's wrong?" She shook her head.

"Niall, I'm sorry I haven't been in contact..." She trailed off.

"I texted, I called, I emailed, I tried to skype. What happened?"

"I just don't know what to do anymore. I'm so sorry." She began to cry, to sob.

"Well, ignoring me won't help."

"I'm so sorry. This is so hard. I love you so much, and there's never been someone in this world who makes me as happy as you do. You're the one person in this world who I can tell anything to, and be completely myself aound, and everytime I see you, it's like magic..." She trailed off again, and I started to understand.

"So, why're making problems? What happened?" She cried again.

"This isn't my life, this is yours." She said.

"My life is your life." I told her, choking up.

"No, it really isn't, Niall, at all. I'm not meant to be where you are. London isn't my place. The fans, they don't like me, and after reading some Twitter mentions, I'm not sure I like them either--"

I cut her off. "You're not supposed to be reading those!"

"I can't help it NIall! I'm insecure! The fact that we're away from each other so much, and I have hate pages, and I need to focus on school. I need to get it done, and this is all a big distraction."

I began to cry. She would not look me in the eyes. "Katie, look me in the eyes and tell me you don't want to be with me." SHe kept looking down.

"Niall, I can't." She kept her eyes averted and shut off the skype call. I stood up quickly, knocking the chair over. I punched the oillow and flopped down, and I cried. I cried. I lost the most important thing in the world. I lost my love. 

I tried calling her, and texting her, but she would not respond. I finally went to sleep.

Katie's POV

I sat on my bed, crying. I nver meant to hurt him, but I was holding him back. It needed to be done. Then, the door opened, and Aileen walked in.

"Katie! What's wrong?" She sat on my bed.

"I-I-I broke up with Niall."

"What the hell! You guys are so perfect for each other!"

"It was management. They threatened to hurt more people than just the two of us if we didn't break up. I'm holdng Niall back."

"Well, tell him! I'm sure Niall will unerstand!" I shook my head.

"Leena, just leave it alone for a while. Maybe I'll get him back soon, but right now, it's for the best." I cried, and she held me.
