Harry Styles: Do i know u?
It felt like everything had froze around me. He didn't know who I was, this was just fucking great. I was perfectly happy with admiring him from a far but of course thats not how Laura goes about things. I had to make a move, I had to try and get his attention. Well maybe I just didn't want to because I knew it would end up like this again after the whole Liam situation I did not need this.
Liam was my first real crush once I had come out as being attracted to the same sex or gay as you may like to put it. He was sweet and charming and didn't ever have a problem with me being gay, he still wanted to be my friend. It was around the time I turned fifteen that I realized that I saw him as more than just a friend and that I constantly wanted to kiss him and my heart would skip a beat everytime I was near him.
Once he had found out though, things didn't go down to well. He had been dating this girl; Sarah and they were perfect together and he didn't want things ending between them because of my little crush. Liam knew Sarah would take it the wrong way and think that every time him and Niall were together that they were doing more than just 'hanging out'. Our friendship ended and as soon as we started the following year and he wouldn't even acknowledge me. The only bonus from that situation was the fact that I met Laura, who can't stand Liam because what he did she believed was cowardly.
"Fuck Laura I knew this was a bad idea" I groaned mentally slapping myself for actually going along with her stupid idea. "He doesn't even know who I am, its so embarrassing"
"Come on he's probably just unsure or has gotten you mixed up with someone else" She said trying to be reassuring. "Remember when Alex told me he didn't know who I was'
"Um yes, because he was a foreign exchange student who barely knew any english and you bombarded his personal space" I replied simply.
"Yes exactly but I spoke to him we were in love" She clasped her hands together and fluttered her eyelids, looking up at the roof slightly.
"Yeah until he left to go back to france and got back with his perfect little french girlfriend" I replied.
"Oh well, just accept the fact that you have to try if oyu want something to happen"
"Argh whatever, this is still the worst Idea in the history of ideas!" I groaned, laying back on my bed.
"No it wasn't here hand me the laptop back" She ordered and I did as she said handing it back to her and watching her click the typing bar.
Niall Horan: Yeah you do
Niall Horan: we go to school together
Niall Horan: and we have a few classes together.
Harry Styles: Oh..which classes do we have together?
Niall Horan: Yeah..we have home room and english togehter-
Harry Styles: Oh really...hmm...okay.
Niall Horan: It's fine.
Harry Styles: Are you sure
Harry Styles: I mean I know everyone
Harry Styles: And I have never ever seen you
Niall Horan: Oh..okay..
Harry Styles: oh wait
Harry Styles: That came across as really rude
Harry Styles: Sorry..
Niall Horan: It's fine
Niall Horan: You aren't the first to no know of my existence.
Harry Styles: Oh okay.
Niall Horan: Yeah
Harry Styles: Well I guess, I will see you around.
Niall Horan: Yeah I guess so.
Harry Styles: Goodbye Niall
Niall Horan: Bye Harry.
"See!" Laura exclaimed happily. "I'm sure he doesn't say I'll see you around to everybody!"
I mentally rolled my eyes, she seriously can be clueless sometimes.
"Of course he does Loz, its a thing people like Harry use to end a conversation when they clearly can't be bothered to talk any more" I replied and fell back onto my bed, looking up at the ceiling.
"Oh whatever Mr Negative pants" She closed the laptop, grinning at me cheekily "At least you've finally had a conversation with him!"
"Whatever" I huffed, crossing my arms over my chest like the big baby I am.
"I'm sorry for trying to help you out Niall" She stood up abruptly "and once again you sulk and complain about how afwul everything is! Well you know what Niall its not even that big of a deal that he doesn't know you, he probably doesn't know half the people like you and I"
"I'm sorry" I mumbled quietly. I really hated making her upset, her being my only friend of course.
"Save it" I watched as she picked up her bag and practically stormed out of the room.
Laura was alway like this, she managed to get her hopes up about little things. Me on the other hand I had learn't that there was no point. I Niall James Horan had accepted the fact that being a gay boy surrounded by many hot straight males should not expect for any of them to even know I exist.
"Whats the point" I mumbled to myself, rubbing my eyes with the palm of my hands.
"Whats the point of what?" My mum stood in my doorway, a basket of washing tucked under her arm.
"Nothing" I mumbled quietly.
"Would it have to do with Laura leaving the house in a huff?" She asked, raising an eyebrow.
"Maybe" I shrugged causing my mum to sigh and place the basket of washing down, sitting on my bed beside me.
"You know Niall she's a sweet girl" My mum started causing me to internally groan. Here we go again another one of her lectures about how I should always respect Laura because she has always been there for me and blah blah blah.
"I know mum, it was just a misunderstanding. We'll be fine by monday" I shrugged quietly. My mother sighed, once again collecting her basket of washing and exiting my room.
