Chrissie's POV

I'm going to tell him today. I have to. I promised Niall I would and I need to anyway. I can't keep this secret any longer.

But what if he doesn't feel the same. What if he finds it awkward around me after I tell him and makes himself invisible to even me. What if he thinks I just like him because he's famous.

I know Niall told me he wouldn't feel like this and that if he did, I could call him but it doesn't make it any better. I can't help but be nervous for rejection. I should call Niall. Get some reassuring words from him. It won't make me feel so nervous then.

I raise my hand so the teacher will notice me and when she does she looks annoyed that I interrupted her.

"Yes, Miss Jacobs?" She says.

"Can I go to the toilet?" I ask her. She looks even more annoyed at my question but nods her head. I get up from my seat and walk towards the classroom door. Luckily Harry has started school again and he can't follow me. He told me that he didn't in that much trouble for Gabby finding out about him and I'm glad.

He probably wouldn't have came with me anyway as he would have thought that I actually needed the toilet.

I go into the first cubicle and get my phone from my back pocket. I dial Niall's number and hope that he answers. He answers on the second ring.

"Hey Chrissie. What's up?" He asks.

"Hey Niall-" I say, but stop as I hear Zayn in the background.

"Chrissie?" Zayn questions in the background.

"Yeah Zayn. It's Chrissie. Now go away." Niall says to Zayn which makes me smile. Knowing that Niall is with Zayn makes me happy. I know he hasn't really been out of his house, and since Harry and I showed up at his house a couple of days ago he's starting going out more.

"Zayn knows who I am?" I ask.

"Yeah...well sort of. I told him you were a fan and that you were a friend of Harry's." He tell me. I nod my head even though he can't see it.

"Oh right. I see." I say.

"So, what did you want?" He asks.

"I wanted some reassuring words. I'm going to tell Harry that I like him soon and to be honest, it's harder to tell him than I thought." I say.

"Chrissie. It will be fine. He's not going to run off is he. Even if he doesn't like you, like you do him, he wouldn't run off and he definately wouldn't let it effect your friendship. Trust me. I've had to spend the last four years with him. He's like a brother to me."

"Thanks Niall." I say. He's better at advice than I thought he would be. "But just to let you know, you're the reason I'm doing this. I probably wouldn't have told him this soon- I probably wouldn't have told him at all."

"It's better that you tell him." Niall says.

"But what if it isn't." I say.

"It is. Trust me." Niall says. I smile at his words. Even though I hardly know him, I know I can trust him.

"Okay. Thanks. I better go now. I'm sat in toilet cubicle in school." I tell him. I hear him laugh.

"Bye Chrissie."

"Bye Niall." I say and then hang up. I put my phone back into my back pocket and then walk back to class. As I walk back into the classroom, my teacher looks at me suspiciously. I did take a while in the toilet.

I sit back in my seat and Harry turns to me.

"Why did you take so long?" He whispers.

"Do you really want to know?" I ask. He shakes his head in disgust, realising I mean girly problems and I laugh at him.
