Liam pushed me fully into the room and shut the door. Niall just looked down and rubbed the back of his neck "Uhm hi". I just stood there. He all of a sudden stood up. "Sydney, I am so sorry. It wasnt what it looked like. I would never do anything to hurt you. I promised. Sydney, please. Forgive me Sydney. I love you!" He was yelling now, he was really upset. He was breathing heavy and he sat down to calm himself down. I slowly came and sat on the bed beside him and put my arm around his waist. I rubbed his back and told him that it was okay. He was crying hard now. "Sydney I would never try to hurt you. I swear. Please forgive me" He barley choked out. "Niall shhh. Just calm down please. Im here now." He sniffled and looked up at me. His eyes were red and I felt so bad. "You forgive me?" I looked at my feet. I wasnt giving in yet. We needed to talk. "We will talk okay Nialler? But now you need to sleep. I will talk to you when you have a rest. Okay love?" "Love?" I smiled and nodded. "Im mad not breaking up" He smiled. Oh how I missed that smile! I got to the door and when Niall said "Syd, you wanna lay down with me please? I will go straight to bed I promise." I turned around and laughed. "Just one minute, I gotta go get a drink first." He smiled and laid down. I closed the door and slid down the door crying.
I cant believe I did that to that beautiful boy. I could never forgive myself. I heard someone coming around the corner so I looked up. I was probably hideous with my makeup running and everything. It was harry. He was always there when I needed him. He picked me up and carried me to the couch. He sat me down and I cried into his chest. "Harry, how could I make that boy so sad. He is the happiest and cheeriest boy in the world and I sucked the life out of him." Harry pushed the hair out of my face and rubbed my makeup off. "Its okay Sydney. Its not your fault." "But he hurt me harry. I can see it, he loves her. His eyes don't lie" Harry got off the couch and went into the kitchen. He came back a few minutes later with a mug of hot chocolate with extra foam. He was a girls bestfriend. "Thanks harry" I was smiling now.
I finished my hot chololate and got up from Harrys lap. I was sitting on him. I walked to the kitchen and put my mug in the sink. It was 4:00am. I walked back into the main area and harry got up. I hugged him and said "Thanks for everything Harold" He laughed at that. "Anything for you syd" This boy was such a good friend. Than I remembered, I didn't read that note! "Oh harry, sorry I forgot to read your note. I will do it when I wake up.But I found your journal. Its in my bag" His eyes went wide. "Thank you, thank you! Wait, you didnt read it did you?" I shook my head and hugged him again. "Your amazing hazza. I will talk to you in the morning! Love you" He smiled and said "I love you too Sydney" He looked kind of sad now. Hm ill read his note in the morning. I walked into the room and Niall was already asleep. He looked beautiful. I pulled the covers down and slipped in beside him. I thought he was asleep but when I laid down, his hand went around my waist. I smiled and let out a long breath. I missed him so much. I turned over and looked at him. "Goodnight beautiful" He said with a big smile. "Goodnight love" and with that I fell asleep.
I awoke to the most beautiful sight in the world. I was facing Niall and he was shirtless. He was so warm. I missed this. I turned around and cuddled him for a bit longer.
When I couldn't get comfortable anymore I got out of bed and grabbed my stuff. I rummaged through my bag and finally grabbed the note from Harry. I was nervous to look at it, but I knew it must be important. I slowly opened it and read it.
Dear Sydney,
Im sorry for what happened the other night. I have something I have to tell you.
I know that you are with Niall and all but, I really like you Sydney. I have loved you from the first time that you fainted on the beach. Im sorry if this makes it awkward between us. I hope it doesnt. If you dont feel the same way, I understand but I need to hear you say it. We can still be friends if thats what you want. I love you Sydney.
From Harold.
I rubbed my eyes. Im not sure if I read that right. He has always been my best dude friend. I needed to talk to him now. I was about to get up and talk to him when I felt a hand on my back. I turned around to find Niall looking at me with a cheeky smile. He was truly the cutest boy in the world. "Hey when did you get up?" "Umm, just a few minutes ago" "You should have told me, I would have gotten up with you Sydney" "Its okay Niall" I turned around and put the note in the bag. He looked down and said "Sydney, are we all good?" "No Niall. We need to talk." He nodded. "Than come here" He patted the bed beside him.
"Okay well what do we need to talk about? I already told you im sorry and please forgive me" "Niall. Stop saying sorry. Thats not how we have to talk. Okay. Its just that I see the way you look at her and whenever someone talks about her, well you blush and get worked up. I just dont know if you care about me that way." "Sydney, I love you, Demi is just a celeb crush. Please Sydney. What can I do to make you see!" "I dont know nail but what I do know is that if you say that you love me I will believe you. Just please dont make me regret this." He smiled big and hugged me so hard I couldn't breath. "Yeah!" he yelled "Niall, can't breathe." I gasped. He laughed and apologized.
The rest of the day I spent with Niall. Just doing random things. We went shopping and to Nandos. It was the first time I had ever been there and Niall was excited!
We had just finished at nandos and I was stuffed! "Okay, I have one more place to take you." I was confused "Where?" He grabbed my hand and we ran. When we stopped we were in a clothing store. He told me to stay outside the store and dont peek. When he came out he was holding a bag. "Don't look!" I laughed and nodded.
When we got back to the hotel we had to leave again. They had a concert. Harry sat next to me in the car. "Hey I read your letter. I love you, but as a friend sorry hazza" "Its okay" He said quietly and looked down at the ground.
When I got to the venue, I sat backstage, and the concert started and Demi Lovato came on stage. Her and Niall were flirting the whole time! She even kissed him on the cheek and he blushed. I hated them right now. I got up and I ran. I didnt care where I went. I just ran.
