7.

Ash's Pov:

"Ash, it's been three days! Three days! I actually might be losing my fucking mind! This is my fault. It's cause I didn't tell my parents sooner. Now Liam is annoyed and angry at me that I hid him away from my parents. I really don't know what to do and-"

"Hannuh, take a breather. Everything is going to be fine. Every relationships go through arguments. Believe it or not but Liam will come running back to you in no time. He just needs time to think, probably."

"He needs three days to think?"

"Yes, and he'll be coming back to you in no time. Trust me."

The doorbell suddenly rang.

"Please tell me that isn't him."

"Just wait here, I'll go see who it is."

I quickly unlocked the door and opened it.

"Niall? What are you doing here?"

"Sorry, I hope you aren't too busy."

"No, not at all. Rose is taking a nap, what's up?"

"Can I come in?"

"Sure."

Niall walked in and sat on the couch. I closed the front door and looked at Hannuh.

"I'm going to go and let you two be, I have stuff to do."

I gave her a look basically telling her don't leave me alone with him.

"Like what?"

She walked away and didn't say anything. I sat next to Niall. He didn't say anything. He just stared down at his hands.

"Is everything okay?"

Niall looked up at me.

"I know that we haven't really been talking lately and I feel like it's my fault. I just want to say sorry. I didn't know Ellie was going to pop up like that."

"You don't need to apologize Niall. That's not the reason I left so suddenly that night."

"Oh Okay, well that's not the only reason why I came over."

"Oh, what's the other reason?"

"It's Ellie, we keep arguing and I'm tired of hearing Liam talk about Hannuh. He should just come over here and talk to her."

"That's funny, Liam was over here days ago, before him and Hannuh were having problems and he was complaining about you and Ellie."

"He was?"

"Yeah, I think it's cause he didn't really want to be involved in what ever you and Ellie were talking about."

"Yeah, lately since I came here to Ireland she's been arguing with me and then tries to put Liam in the conversation when it has nothing to do with him. And I know how uncomfortable he gets when he gets put into a conversation that has nothing to do with him, so I dont blame him."

"Every relationships have there ups and downs. You two will get through with whatever you two are going through, it just takes trust and effort in the relationship, and most importanly honesty."

"Yeah, can I tell you something?"

"Sure."

"You can't tell anyone. Hannuh probably already knows cause  of Liam though."

"What is it?"

"Ellie and I aren't exactly dating. I mean, we are but we aren't. It's management, they're basically making me date Ellie for publicity to get a bigger audience of fangirls and they basically want me to have more clout so I have a good reputation. Does that make sense?"

Everything seemed much more clear now that Niall told me that management set him up with Ellie. He gets annoyed of her and he doesn't seem interested at all when it comes to her.

"Yeah, it makes sense. No offense, but you didn't really seem interested in her when I first met you."

"It's that obvious?"

"Sort of."

"Thank you."

"For what?"

"For listening to me ramble on about my problems and actually listen to what I have to say and being honest with me. Not alot of people do that these days."

I smiled.

"It's no problem."

It quickly got silent and I started to look around to figure out what to say or do. It was slowly getting awkward by the second. I looked up at him and he was staring at me. He started to lean in slowly and I was getting nervous by the second. Our lips were inches away from touching.

"Hey, Niall, can I ask you-"

We both quickly pulled away.

"Sorry, am I interrupting something?"

"Oh, no. I was actually about to leave. You said you wanted ask me something?"

"Yeah, I was wondering what's the best approach to win Liam back."
