You: DAD DAD DADDD!!!!!! GET OUT DAD HURRY HURRRY!
You started flipping side to side in the bed, you were twitching and your whole body was convulsing you were screaming at the top of your lungs.
Niall: Shelby, Shelby, Shelby shh shhh shh, it’s okay.
He pulled you close you kept crying, he rocked you back and forth until you fell back asleep. You woke up the next morning and you looked up at Niall he was asleep sitting up, you felt bad that he had to deal with you screaming bloody murder every night. You tried to move as quietly as you could to not wake him up, but that didn’t work.
Niall: Huhh, oh… babe.
You looked over at him: hmm?
Niall: Nothing you’re just awake.
You: Yeah… look Niall. I don’t want you to have to keep dealing with me. I can leave.
Niall: No! That’s the last thing I want you to do!
You: You aren’t getting any sleep and you have to get back to your band. I’m sure you’re missing a lot of things that are going on.
Niall: Just interviews… it’s not a big deal really.
You sat up: No it is a big deal… This is your career; you met me not even a week ago. Why are you jeopardizing everything for me?
He shook his head…
You: What?
Niall: You’ll have to figure it out for yourself…. Do you want something to eat? You haven’t eaten in two days….
You: No I’m fine.
Niall: C’mon Shelby you need to eat something.
You: Niall, no! Can you please just get me something to drink?
You rolled over and threw the covers over your head. A couple of minutes later Niall brought up a pack of 24 water bottles.
Niall: If you aren’t going to eat….. (Cracked pills into the water) I’m going to make sure you get all of your vitamins and protein and everything.
He probably put 10 dissolvent pills in the bottle plus another 10 he was handing you to swallow.
Niall: Drink it and swallow them. You don’t have a choice babe…. Or you can eat.
You glared at him, stuck all the vitamins in your mouth and gulped water down.
You rolled over your back facing toward him. What did he mean I should know?? I mean you only knew each other for less than a week. Was he serious about you? You rolled back over: Niall….
He looked over at you with those beautiful blue eyes: What?
You got up and wobbled toward him you were so weak: I’m sorry, I just… when I’m hurt I just like to be left alone and let me cope by myself.. It…
Niall: I’m not going to let you cope like this! (Grabs your arm) This kills me Shelby. You’re hurting yourself, you aren’t eating, I know you lost your dad and it hurts. But I can’t lose you Shelby! Not like this. Not this way….
He put his head between his legs and started crying you crawled closer to him and lifted his head up and kissed him….: Niall… you haven’t known me long enough to say that…
Niall: Well I haven’t known you long enough to love you but I do.
You backed up…... What did you just say?
He crawled closer to you and held you boney face: I am completely in love with you.
He pulled you close and kissed you on the nose, you looked at him with a blank expression. You stood up and you starred at him, he stood up right after you.
You: Say it again.
Niall moved in closer: I… LOVE… YOU.
You smirked.
Niall: I missed that.
You: What?
Niall: That smile of yours.
You: Yeah I’ve missed it too.
Your stomach growled, Niall laughed: Can we get you some food now?!
You laughed: Yeah, hold on let me just take this off.
You took off the bandage on your arms, Niall’s smile went to the same pained look he had when he first saw the cuts. They weren’t sensitive anymore.
Niall picked your arm up and kissed it: Don’t ever do this again a beautiful girl like you should never even think about it.
Your eyes filled up with tears, you fell for Niall and there was no stopping you from falling farther.
