Never Leave My Side (A Niall Horan Story)

Never Leave My Side (Chapter 36)

*Sapphire's POV*

"Da, have you seen my blue shirt, you know, the one with the black lettering on it?" I asked da, walking into the kitchen.

He sat at the table, tapping away on his laptop. "Uh," he thought for a minute, still tapping on his keyboard, "have you checked your room?"

I sighed before turning around, of course I've checked my room. That was the first place I looked. I sighed and sat down on the couch, turning the TV on.

Some comedy show played, but I didn't pay much attention to it. I let my mind wander for a while, thinking about Tori and Hannah, about the boys, about Demetry and Daniel.

My mind didn't wander far when I heard a knock on the front door. I stood up to get it as Da came barreling into the living room. "I've got it!" He said hurriedly as he ran through.

I chuckled at him and sat back down, pulling my phone out of my pocket. I scrolled through twitter, smiling at most of the tweets, finding a conversation between a few accounts, trying to guess who Niall's girlfriend is, find out who I am. 

A notification pops up at the bottom, reminding me the boys have an interview. I pick up the remote, finding the right channel and watch what's on, waiting for the next show.

"I'll see you later, I'm going out." Da says, coming into the living room to grab his jacket.

I smile up at him. "Who's the lucky guy?"

"Uh, Dustin?" He says laughing loudly before leaving. "Oh! And Daniel and Demetry will be here in a while! Make sure Demetry is okay, he got into a fight with Amy, and she won't talk to him." He says, coming back in. I only nod as he leaves once again.

I click back onto twitter as I wait for the interview, and watch everyone's excitement of seeing the boys on TV again. I don't blame them, it's great to see the boys whenever I can.

I checked the amount of time left of the show that was playing, '10 minutes'.

Sighing, I stand up and make my way back to the kitchen. I take my time to make some tea, and warm up some pizza from the night before.

"Sapphire?" Demetry's voice came through the halls.

"I'm in the kitchen!" I call back, still making my tea.

Daniel walked in first, Demetry right behind him. "Hey! What's up?" Daniel sounds a bit happier than usual today, which I won't question.

I picked my tea up, and opened the toaster oven. "Going to go watch the boys' interview. You're welcome to join me if you want." I said as I walked out of the kitchen.

"You okay?" Demetry asked, sitting on the couch next to me.

I nodded, taking a bite of my pizza. "Yeah, just thinking." I mumbled before taking another bite of pizza.

Daniel sat down in front of the couch, setting his own plate of pizza on the table in front of him. "What of?" He asked, jumping into the conversation.

I shrugged, focusing on the TV as the show started. The three of us watched as the host spoke, introducing the people who would be joining him on the show.

"Do you ever get used to girls screaming your boyfriend's name?" Demetry asks, referring to the screaming girls on the set of the show.

I shrugged. "I find it adorable. I love it."

"Why is that?" Daniel asks, looking up at me confused.

I smiled at the screen when it shows the audience. "Because, every single one of those people are there supporting them. It makes them feel proud. Makes them really see how many lives they've changed." 

They smiled at my words and looked back to the television as the boys came onto the screen. 

The interview was about halfway through, and the question Niall said he knew would be asked at some point, was thrown at him. "Niall, will you ever tell us the name of the lucky girl who has your heart at the moment?" 

The camera shifted over to Niall as he smiled, a blush creeping to his cheeks. "I'm afraid I can't do that." He smiled. "We're keeping ourselves on the 'down-low' as much as possible. She doesn't really want the attention, she's just trying to keep her life as normal as possible."

The interviewer chuckled, "how is she 'keeping it normal' when she's dating Niall Horan from One Direction?" 

Niall frowned at the statement before answering. "She doesn't really see me as 'Niall Horan from One Direction' she just sees me as myself, Niall Horan, the goofy kid from school." He said, now smiling to himself. 

"Do the boys like her?" He asked. 

All of the boys smiled and nodded, "adore actually. Haven't seen Niall as happy as he was when she showed up to one of our concerts." Liam spoke up. 

Niall laughed and blushed again, "thanks for that, Liam." 

 "Anytime, mate." 

Niall looked back to the interviewer as he spoke. "We've talked about going 'public' but there have been a lot of interviews where they ask if she's only in it for the money and fame, so that just holds us back." 

"Have you been spotted with her by any fans when you would go visit her?"

"There were a few at a hospital we went to after a show, after we found out her Da got into an accident. They never got her name though." Harry spoke this time. 

"Oh, wow. Is everything okay now?" The interviewer asked. 

All of them nodded together. "Great. Both are home and happy." Niall smiled. 

We watched on as the interview went on, talking about the tour, and fans asking questions. They looked to be having an amazing time, which only made us all smile more. 

"So, Demetry, I heard you and Amy had an argument?" I asked as the boys began to leave the interview.

Demetry nodded sadly and looked at his phone. "I made a joke about something, and I guess she didn't find it so funny." He explained. 

"What was the joke?" Daniel asked. 

Demetry looked at him like he was stupid. "You already know, I told you earlier."

Daniel shrugged. "So, Sapphire doesn't know."

"I just don't want to talk about it." His shoulders sagged as he stood up, "mind if I get a drink?"

"You know you don't have to ask." 

I watched as he stood up and left the room. Daniel took a short breath, making me look at him. "He joked about some 'nice-looking' girl they saw in the store yesterday." He explained. "I guess he forgets how sensitive she actually is at times, especially about other girls."

I nodded. "All girls are like that."

"Even you?" 

I nod again. "All the time." 

"Why is that? You know Niall loves you more than anything, right?"

I shrug, "It's always in the back of a girl's mind though. Like, 'oh, they're going to find someone who is so much better, and so much prettier than I am.' It doesn't matter how many times the guy says it's never going to happen, it's always there."

"Yeah, but no one is prettier than you." Daniel laughed. "Except Hannah." 

"Of course." I smiled.

So, I think I'm just going to end this chapter right here. I'll decide what to do for the next one. Sorry I haven't been updating. I got super busy with work, and lost all of my time for this, so when I would write, it would be a small amount at a time. I'll try to have the next one up before new years. 

Vote maybe?
