The rest of class Mr. Pierce would occasionally smile my way and I'd smile down at my notes. He was a great guy and an excellent teacher I had a feeling I would like this class. "Okay, now since I'm not completely awful, no homework this entire week." The class erupted into cheers when he said that. I laughed in appreciation and Mr. Pierce smiled at me. "But next week, be prepared. This is a college class and if I learned anything from being in college myself, it's that history is long, boring, and not easy. I'll see you all back here Thursday."

With that air of finality everyone began pushing their chairs back, metal screeching on the tiled floor. I gathered my things into my backpack, slinging it over my shoulder. "Pretty good for a first day right?" Mr. Pierce said, coming up behind me. I laughed and nodded my head.

"You didn't even cry." I pointed out with a wide smile.

"Oh but I wanted to. I actually felt like I was going to throw up several times if you didn't notice." I laughed again, throwing back my head.

"I did notice you getting a little green now that you mention it." I replied happily. Mr. Pierce rolled his eyes and pretended to wipe the sweat form his forehead.

"I've had it. No more teaching for me." I scoffed.

"Oh come on! It was your first day I think you did great." I complimented him. Mr. Pierce bowed and I tried to stifle my laughter as he did .

"Thank you Ms. Collins it was a pleasure teaching you. See you Thursday." I nodded, still smiling.

"Goodbye Mr. Pierce." I never thought I would like a teacher as much as I liked Mr. Pierce. He was sweet and a bit of a goofball. He reminded me of Niall, if Niall was a teacher that is. My phone began vibrating furiously in my pocket. Speaking of Niall. I thought to myself answering his call and bringing the phone to my ear. "Hey Niall! What's up?" I questioned.

"Hi love, I just wanted to ask how you were and how things were going." He sounded a bit worried.

"You okay Niall? Is something wrong?" I questioned. I'm guessing he shook his head no because he didn't say anything for a few moments.

"No, nothing's wrong." But he hesitated, I heard it.

"Something is definitely wrong. Come on, spit it out." I coaxed isn't a small laugh. Niall just sighed.

"It's nothing Sarah, promise I just.. I just miss you." Now I sort of felt like my happiness had been drained from me.

"Ahh Niall I miss you too." I replied trying not to sound too down.

"I hate being away from you." I almost wanted to laugh but I didn't.

"Niall, we've been away from each other for most our our relationship." It wasn't s lie. That week we had spent together was just that, a week. He went back to Ireland and while I had been out there to visit him over the summer and he'd been out here one other time to see me most of our relationship has been over phone calls, texts, and Skype. I didn't like it but it was all we had. It was just harder now that he was on tour again and I was back in school.

"I know I just.. I live for the moments when I see you." My heartbeat faster as he spoke. "I've never felt this way about anyone Sarah, I just don't want to loose you while I'm away." While he was being extremely sweet, I could tell there was an underlining tone of doubt and sadness like I might be leaving him.

"Niall, I'm not going to leave you okay? You're the only boy I've ever dated. I don't think I would know how to break up with you even if I wanted too, which I don't. I love you. You won't loose me." Niall seemed to breathe out a sigh of relief like that's all he needed to hear.
