throwback Thursday

Right now, I'm having so many contractions, no progress whatsoever, the doctor said if I keep going on at this rate, I'll have to move to the c section, where you get more nurses to help through labour. 

There's no point in me telling you about my contractions since they're not so interesting so instead I'll tell you what happened on Thursday.

It was 9 a.m. and Niall texted me, since we're friends. "hey :)" 

"ello" I sent back. Shawn was still sleeping.

"what are you doing?" he asks me.

"just in bed, scrolling through my instagram as usual." I say.

"lol, same here" he replies.

"mhm" I type.

"good morning" he says.

"morning" I say, isn't that what you say at the start of the conversation?

"so, wanna meet up?" he asks. My heart skipped a beat. 

"er.." I send, not wanting to be rude.

"too bad, i'm right outside your house." I thought he was joking and played along typing:

"wtf!?"

"yep, check your window" he was being serious? I ask myself.

I peered out through the curtains and found him waving at me. I shut the curtains, not waving back.

"what the hell are you doing here!?" I ask, panicking. What if Shawn saw?

"came round to hang with you!" he informs me.

"SHAWN'S AWAKE! HIDE SOMEWHERE OUT OF OUR SIGHT." I quickly text.

"morning shawn!" I say, nervously. "morning baby" he says, smiling. "you usually wake me up, what happened today?" he asks, concerned. "you looked sleepy and tired." I say, trying to keep it calm. Shawn nodded and went off to brush his teeth. I checked my phone.

"I'm hiding behind the side gates" - Niall.

"okay, stay there until I come out" I decided I had to get out there and 'hang' with him or else Shawn will find out about him.

"okay :)" - Niall

"Shawn I'm going out right now, emergency!" I say, trying not to stutter.

"emergency?" he asks.

"girl issues." I say, I had nothing else in mind.

"okay" he said, smiling, respecting my privacy. Thanks to this I felt so guilty, hanging with Niall behind his back after everything that happened? I sighed, I'll end our friendship today i guess. I couldn't betray Shawn, he's my everything.

I slipped on a denim jacket, over my green dress, I looked absolutely horrid in it, with jeans but I didn't give a damn. I walked out of the house and told Niall to meet me on the other street, knowing Niall he'll run up to me as soon as he sees me, therefore Shawn will see. 

I walked over to Donning lane, the street next to ours, and found Niall, slouched beside a bus stand. He waved and ran up to me, just as I thought he would. He was about to hug me, but remembered I was pregnant so decided not to, I giggled at him.

"hey" I say, I had nothing else to say to him. "hi!" he says, over-excited. We started walking down the streets that led to town. "So how's everything with Shawn?" he asks, not knowing what to say to me. "great, he's the best." gesturing that he needed to butt out. "I've got some news." he tells me. "spill the beans," I say. "I've got a girlfriend!" he says. "woa-" I stopped myself. I was shocked. I was very very shocked. "Her name is Barbara Palvin." he tells me. I couldn't help but snigger, silently so he didn't hear me. "Barbara?" I asked. "yep." he said, smiling. I was happy for him. "can I see a picture of her?" Niall nodded in excitement, I could tell he liked her.

 "can I see a picture of her?" Niall nodded in excitement, I could tell he liked her

"she looks nice" I said, she was a pretty lady. Niall nodded. "that was from a few years ago, she's the best." he said, admiring her. "do you have any photos together?" I asked, Niall looked like a lover, not a boyfriend. He could be lying to me. He nodded again, showing me another picture.  

I smiled

I smiled. They looked pretty cute together. "aw," I said, being nice. Niall blushed scarlet red. "can I borrow your phone?" I asked. "yeah sure." he gives me his phone. I knew his password, 0000, and went into messenger. Barbara was at the top, the last message was "love you baby." from Barbara. "hey what are you doing!?" asked Niall, snatching his phone back. "just going through your messages of course." I say, mocking him. He laughed, "I've got to go, I was supposed to be home 5 minutes ago oops." he says, waving. "you better get going." I say, waving back. 

"today was great, thanks!" he said, smiling. "hang again?" I asked, smiling back. Niall nodded and sprinted around the corner. 

ring.ring.ring. It was Shawn. "where are you!! I miss youu!" he said as soon as I answered the phone call. "I'm on my way, just a few streets away." I tell him. "okay, hurry up!" he said, giggling. I wondered what was going on.  

I ended the call and walked as quickly as possible.
