The One That Got Away

Chapter 24

Selena POV

I looked beside me, seeing Harry asleep with Harley also asleep in his arms. I smirked, stroking Harry's curls with relief to know that he's back to reality with me and his son finally.

But I can't help but think of Niall. I shouldn't be thinking of him, I can't since I'm married to Harry and I love him.

"Selena"

I looked up at the doorway to see it was the one and only, Niall Horan.

"Niall?"

"We need to talk" he said before turning his back towards me and walks out.

I furrowed my eyebrows, slowly standing up from the bed. I pulled the sheets over Harley, so he wouldn't get cold, then fixed the pillow under Harry's head before I walk out of the room to see Niall standing at the end of the hallway alone.

I walk towards him, not knowing what he wants to talk about since there really isn't anything to talk about.

It's probably about Harry.

"Um, so what's up?" I asked, tucking myself more into my cardigan sweater from the cold breeze in the hallway. It was night hours, so the air conditioning was probably on.

"Lets get inside the elevator, I don't want anyone to listen to our conversation. Especially not, Harry"

"Um, okay..."

Well that was weird, don't you think?

He pushes the button to the elevator, waiting patiently before it opens as we make our way inside.

We stand beside each other, the door closing after Niall pushes a random button. The elevator moves, an awkward silence between us before he looks at me with his crystal blue eyes.

I was thinking that probably this would be a good time to talk to him about how I've been thinking about him these past few days.

But what does, was something I never expected.

"Niall-"

He cups my face with his hands, smashing his lips over mine and pushes me against the wall. He grabs my arms and raises them up on the wall so I wouldn't move or try to push him off.

His lips moved in sync, even pushing his tongue in my mouth as we kissed slowly with both our eyes closed, feeling the moment like if it were nothing.

The thing is though, why am I kissing him back?

I'M CHEATING ON HARRY!

I push him away, running over to the other side of the elevator in shock as I try catching my breath. Niall looks at me, trying to catch his breath as well.

What the fuck just happened?!

"What the hell is wrong with you? Why'd you do that?! I thought you just wanted to talk!"

"Didn't that tell you anything? I told you by showing you"

"I'm not a toy....." I slightly glared, gripping on the handle bars attached to the walls.

"What? No, Selena! How can you be so clueless?!" he shouts, yanking his blonde hair frustratedly as I shook my head in response.

"I'm getting out of here"

"NO! No wait, please" he stops me from pressing the open door button. He twirls me around to face him, his hands over my shoulders and blue eyes looking into mine.
