Niall's P.O.V.

I woke up next morning with a terrible headache due to the fact that I cried myself to sleep the night before.

I felt like shit and I didn’t know if things between me and Josh were going to go back as they were before. I didn't think so, but I hoped so for sure. That was because I needed him, I knew this sounded terribly selfish but it was real. I probably needed my bestfriend back more than I needed Zayn as a lover.

Zayn.

"Why do I have to think always about him one way or another?" I questioned myself out loud, shaking my head and pulling my hair.

I couldn’t let my head go back thinking about him, so I decided that I couldn't stay on my bed a minute longer.

I got up and went to the bathroom. I washed my face and I looked at myself in the mirror. Oh, I looked like a complete mess.

I sighed and went back to my bedroom and I took a random pair of sweatpants and a t-shirt and I dressed myself.

I decided to go downstairs and to face Josh if he was there.

I went to the kitchen to eat something and Josh was in fact there.

"Good Morning." I greeted him with my voice sounding unsure.

"Hi." he said a bit harshly.

I sighed. I didn't expect him to be all buddy-buddy with me, but he acted like we didn’t know each other at all.

I went to the fridge and took the can of milk and I filled myself a cup with itl

I took a seat in front of Josh and I put the cup of milk on the kitchen counter. As soon as I started to drink it Josh groaned and and stood up leaving the kitchen.

I couldn’t take it anymore, so I got up leaving the cup of milk there and I started to follow after him.

"Really Josh, really?" I called after him.

He stopped and turned around to face me.

"Really what Niall?" he asked me, still with an harsh tone.

"Do you really think that you are going to solve things by ignoring me?"

"No, is that I don't have anything to say to you right now,  Niall!" He growled.

"Instead, I think we really have to talk." I stated.

"No." He said simply and started to walk away from me again.

I grapped his wirst stopping him.

"No please, Josh. I need to ... I need you." I pleaded him.

He looked at me and then at my hand holding his wirst and sighed.

"Okay" He said giving in.

"Let's go seat on the couch." I said and he nodded.

We sat on the couch and I started to talk. "I'm sorry Josh, please accept my apologies. Really it's all my fault I shouldn’t have accepted to come with you on a date. It's not that I didn't have a good time, it was amazing really,  but I only leaded you on and you don't deserve it. I will never forgive myself for doing this to you." I lowered my glance.

"Oh God Niall, you don't know how ungry I am." he started to say and I narrowed my eybrows. "And I'm not even ungry at you a little bit. I'm ungry at myself instead. I'm ungry because I was so self-centred to think that I could make you fall i love with me, that I could make you forget about Zayn. But obviously you love him too much, I will never take his place and now I understand it. I'm also ungry because I can't stay mad at you. " he said.

I didn't know what to think. "Oh Josh, you can't be so harsh on yourself. It's not your fault at all. You tried to make me happy. You didn't do it only for you did it also for me, like everything you did in the past year. If it wasn't for you I don't know where I would be right now. Really, I'm so thankful to have you in my life and I don't want to lose you. I love you so much, just not in the way you'd like. I'm sorry for that." I rambled out.

He didn't answer at first but then he opened his arms and said "Come here."

I couldn't believe it so I hesitated a bit but then I launched myself in him arms, hugging him tightly.

"Hey, as much as I love you hugging me, I can't litterally breathe."

I laughed "Thank you Josh, thank you, thank you, thank you." still hugging him with all my force.

"What for Ni?" he asked rubbing my back. I could hear a smile in his voice.

"For being always there for me, love you." I said pulling away, giving him a peck on the cheek.

"No problem Ni, love you too."

The doorbell rang. Tha was strange.

"Are you especting someone?" Josh asked me.

I shook my head and I got up to go to go answer the door and Josh followed behind me.

I opened the door to find a man standing there with a bouquet in his hands.

"Is there Mr Horan at home?" the man asked.

"Yeah, that’s me." I said lifting and eyebrow.

"These are for you." he said handing me the flowers.

I took them and thanked the man closing the door.

"Well that was strange." I said turning to look at Josh.

"Yeah." He said rubbing the back of his neck.

I looked at the flowers in awe wondering who could have done something like this and I noticed that there was alsoba little note. I took it and I rested the bouquet on the couch.

I looked at Josh with questioning eyes.

"Read it." he told me and I nodded unfolding the note.

I know you don’t want to,

but I want you

Go where kids enjoy themeselves,

you are going to find other clues.

I couldn’t believe it, was it like a treausure hunt? Did I have to go?

I passed the note to Josh and he read it widening his eyes.

"Is it from Zayn?" he asked me.

I nodded.

"You love him, right?" he asked me once again.

"Yeah." I answered truthfully.

"Then go." He said to me smiling.

Yeah, maybe this time I was going to give Zayn a chance.
