Chapter 10

A M Y

4 days has passed, and I have only left the house to buy food. Mum is taking care of Darcy, and two days ago Jason asked Tahlia if he wanted to move in with her. He's now a guitar teacher in Ireland, and he bought a house in Dublin. Now I'm just completely alone.

It's like no one cares about me. Tahlia just left without a proper goodbye. She just said 'bye' and then she was out of the door. Jason said a proper goodbye, though.

Taylor is on a football school for 5 more days, so I can't call him for company either. I want some time away from Darcy since I've never left her side for 2 years. I thought Tahlia and I could finally have some 'bestfriend time', but no. She just leaves me here all alone. I thought she was my friend, but I guess she never was a friend.

I've been wondering if I should contact Niall, but I've never dared to do it. I told him I wanted to stay away from him for a while, and that's exactly what I'm gonna do.

I unlocked my phone and went on my twitter. I decided to look at Niall's profile to see if he did better than me. The only thing he had tweeted the last 4 days was; 'I miss you.'

Does he mean me? Darcy? The lads?

Part of me wanted it to me, but part of me didn't. I wanted it to me because I miss him too. "But part of my didn't because I wanted to be alone. He just made things harder, and it's the best for both of us to stay away from each other.

Suddenly my phone started buzzing. Unknown number the called ID said. I chose to ignore the call. Mum always told me to not answer phone calls from strangers.

The phone rang again, but I ignored it this too. It ringed two more times before I gave up and just answered it. "Who is this?"

"It's Louis." Louis said.

"Oh, hi Louis." I said. "Why'd you call?"

"We really need your help." He said. "Niall came to our hotel 4 days ago, and he's been upset ever since and he won't tell us why. All he does is lay on the couch, and whenever we ask him something, he'll just close his eyes and shake his head."

"So?"

"He's driving me crazy, and I want this to stop. I don't know if you know what happened, but you gotta help us. You're the only one who can fix him." He replied.

"And how do you know that?" I asked.

"He replied to one of our questions, and that was when we asked what he wanted."

"And what did he reply?" I asked.

"He only said 'Amy'. So I guess he wants you for something."

"Louis, I told Niall I wanted some time away from him. His Mum hates me and Darcy, so I told him him I wanted to be alone for alone and it would be best if we spent some time apart." I said.

"Oh, come on, Amy! We've tried everything to get him to talk or at least get his own hotel room, but he won't move. He won't even shower, and it's starting to smell." He said. "He won't even tell us when he wants food. We have to guess when he wants it."

"Why don't just send Greg to talk with him? Greg is his brother, so Niall better listen to him." I suggested.

"Just help us. He cries at night when he thinks no one hear him, but Liam and Zayn hears. Niall only leave the couch twice a day to use the bathroom, but that's it." He said. "We have an interview today, and if you don't fix this, then we have nothing to do anymore."

"Fine, I'll do it." I said. "But I only do it because you forced me. And how did you even get my number?"

"I went on Niall's phone. He didn't even protest on it." He replied.

"And how did you find out his passcode?" I asked.

"It's easy. 2405."

"Hey, that's my birthday!" I said.

"I know, that's what I thought it would be." He said. "But be here quick. Liam and Zayn's room number is 316, floor 3."

"Okay, I'll be over soon."

I knocked on the door and waited for someone to open. I heard shuffling on the inside and finally someone opened. Liam was the one who opened and he looked at me confused.

"What?" I asked.

"Why are you in pajamas?" He asked. I looked down and noticed I was wearing a pajamas.

"I wanted to be here quick, so I just put on my shoes and left." I lied. "Louis called me and wanted me to come, and after 5 minutes of begging, I gave in and came."

"Yeah, he's in here on the couch. He's driving us all crazy, and we don't know what to do anymore. He smells terrible, I've warned you. It's not just like a bad smell, but one of those dog breath bad smell." He said and I nodded. "Zayn and I are just gonna go to Louis' room, so you and Niall can talk."

"Yeah, okay." I said.

"Come on, Zayn. We'll leave them alone." He said and Zayn and Liam walked out of the room as I walked in. As I walked further in, I saw Niall laying on the couch with his back facing me.

"Hey.." I kind of whispered as I sat down on a chair that was in front of the couch. Liam wasn't kidding when he said that Niall smelled. He didn't reply, though. "Niall, are you awake?"

"Go away. I wanna be alone, Louis.." I heard him mutter. How can he take wrong of me and Louis?

"It's not Louis." I said. "It's me, Amy." His head immediately shot up and he turned around. His hair was messy, and his eyes were red. He was pale and looked like it hadn't been outside in forever.

"I didn't expect you to be here. I thought you wanted some time apart." He muttered coldy.

"I talked with Louis, and after what he said, I thought you wanted me here. But I guess I should just leave if you're gonna go all grumpy cat on me." I said and stood up from the chair.

"No, wait." He said and grabbed my wrist. "I didn't mean it, I'm just in shock you actually came here. Just please don't leave."

I nodded and sat back down in the chair.

"Why did you come here?" He asked.

"Louis called and said all you did was lay here on the couch, not talking to them or even showering." I replied. "He wanted me to come over and help you. I told him why you are like this, and now he wants me to fix things with you."

"Do we have problems?" He asked.

"No, we don't." I replied. "I only said we should take some time apart. And when I said that, I meant a couple of weeks. Not three years like last time.."

"I know, I just.." He paused. "Can I be honest with you?"

"Yeah, ofcourse." I replied. He sat up and grabbed both my hands.

"You're not the reason I'm here, Amy.." He started. "I know you may have thought so, but the reason I'm here is my parents." A tear rolled down his cheek.

"Niall, what's wrong?" I asked.

"Dad is supportive for me having a daughter, but Mum isn't." He said. "So they had a big argument about you and Darcy.." He let another tear fall. "I heard every single word they said, and.. They divorced, Amy, they divorced."
